Capítulo 1356: Chapter 464: Too Close to the United States, Too Far from God (Part 2)
Donnie noticed on the road that there were many people from the church holding protest gatherings.
“Is their war still not over?”
Tang Fei asked Dwight Morrow in the car.
For Mexico, apart from their President Alvaro Obregon being assassinated in recent years, it was the war between the Mexican government and the church.
In simple terms, Mexico was also a church state in earlier years, but with the Freemasons infiltrating Mexico, they began to forbid the church’s promotion in the country and even enacted many harsh laws.
This led to continuous conflicts between the two sides. Initially, church members had no weapons, so they remained oppressed until last year when a prominent church member was executed for allegedly assassinating the president, marking a turning point.
The Mexican government published photos of the execution in newspapers to intimidate church members nationwide, but it had the opposite effect.
This year, a retired general from Mexico joined the church and started organizing resistance, nearly turning it into a full-blown war.
Apart from this war, rebels frequently appear within Mexico, and it’s no exaggeration to say that the country now lives amidst warfire.
This is why Donnie brought 100 guards, plus several hundred more on board.
He’s here for business and doesn’t want any accidents to happen.
As for whether the Mexican government would permit this… well, given their status as the staff of the US Embassy in Mexico and after Donnie paid an official one million pesos, no one concerned themselves with it anymore.
One million pesos is equivalent to 500,000 US Dollars!
This is no small sum even in the United States, let alone in a chaotic country like Mexico!
“I’m actively mediating this situation, and Calles has already shown some flexibility. I believe this war will soon end!”
Dwight Morrow smiled modestly.
Donnie chuckled and said, “If that’s the case, the church members in Mexico should be grateful for your efforts!”
Dwight Morrow laughed heartily and said, “It’s what I should do.”
Although Acapulco is only about 300 kilometers from Mexico City, in reality, it took Donnie and others more than seven hours to reach Mexico City.
Donnie didn’t head straight to his hotel but first went to Dwight Morrow’s estate.
There, Donnie met the American flying hero, Charles Lindbergh, previously mentioned as single in the newspapers.
“Mr. Block, you’re very welcome. I should have gone to Acapulco to welcome you!”
Charles Lindbergh said respectfully upon meeting Donnie.
Donnie laughed and said, “Mr. Lindbergh, I think if American girls knew your current situation, they would be very upset.”
A few months ago, Charles Lindbergh was invited to Mexico for a goodwill visit, where he fell in love at first sight with Dwight Morrow’s daughter, Annie Morrow. The two are now engaged and about to hold a wedding.
They must marry soon as Annie Morrow’s belly has grown big, and she won’t fit into the wedding dress!
As for the relationship between Charles Lindbergh and Tang Fei, it’s because his later flights were sponsored by Venus Bank.
Standing next to Charles Lindbergh is Dwight Morrow’s daughter and Charles Lindbergh’s fiancée, Annie Morrow.
A young but quite ordinary girl.
However, at this moment, she was very proud: “I am very honored to upset them!”
Donnie and others laughed after hearing this.
At Dwight Morrow’s invitation, Donnie walked into the living room.
After sitting down, Donnie first said to Charles Lindbergh, “Mr. Lindbergh, it seems we need to find you a bigger place in Atlantic City!”
Venus Bank didn’t sponsor Charles Lindbergh for nothing; Venus Bank is now entering the civil aviation sector, with Charles Lindbergh as a living advertisement.
“Thank you, Mr. Block!” Charles Lindbergh sincerely thanked Donnie.
Donnie laughed and said, “It’s what should be done, and I think when Mr. Morrow returns to the United States, he will likely reside in New Jersey, so you all can meet more often!”
Dwight Morrow heard the news he most wanted to hear and immediately said with a smile, “I only hope to see my grandson born in the United States!”
Donnie turned to Annie Morrow, showing a surprised expression, “Didn’t expect your love has already borne fruit, congratulations!”
Annie Morrow laughed and said, “Thank you, Mr. Block, I’ve heard Atlantic City’s education is excellent, is this true?”
Donnie nodded, “It certainly is, Atlantic City has the best elementary and middle schools in the United States, and the teachers there are the best in the nation!”
U.S. education has an interesting point, which is the polarization.
On one hand, they instill the concept of happy learning to ordinary people.
On the other hand, the upper class firmly controls the top educational channels.
Simply put, it can be understood as cultivating a certain professional knowledge in ordinary people while instilling certain specific concepts, like so-called ZZZQ, or whatever the upper class wants to see.
But in top schools, there’s a completely different educational approach.
So, in the United States, for an ordinary person to change their fate, getting into a good university is the most practical way.
Take the multi-gender trend in later U.S. as an example, often you’ll see students not agreeing with the trend getting educated or expelled, or teachers not agreeing getting fired.
But if you research more, you’ll find these schools are among the most ordinary in the U.S., with no such situation in top schools.
Now, Annie Morrow is already thinking about her child’s future.
“If that’s the case, it would indeed be wonderful!”
Dwight Morrow laughed, “I’ve told you before, Mr. Block is a well-known philanthropist and educator, you surely don’t need to worry about these things!”
Yes, those are two among the many titles atop Donnie’s head.
After some pleasantries with Dwight Morrow’s family, Donnie needed to discuss some business with Dwight Morrow, so he invited Donnie to his study for a detailed conversation.
Watching Donnie and Dwight Morrow leave, Annie Morrow whispered, “I’ve never seen my father so courteous to anyone.”
Charles Lindbergh said, “It’s simple, because Mr. Block is a big figure!”
Annie Morrow snuggled in Charles Lindbergh’s arms and said, “I don’t care what big figure he is, I just hope he can quickly get my father transferred back to the United States, you know my father’s health hasn’t been well.”
Dwight Morrow isn’t that old, only 55, but his health isn’t very good.
Charles Lindbergh said, “If Herbert Hoover gets elected as the next President of the United States, I don’t think Mr. Morrow will be in Mexico much longer.”
Charles Lindbergh is quite informed about matters within the United States and is very aware that Donnie supports Herbert Hoover’s candidacy for President.
“By the way, I’ve heard Atlantic City is referred to as the City of God, did you go there?”
Annie Morrow looked up at Charles Lindbergh and asked.
Charles Lindbergh smiled and said, “Rest assured, I will always love you!”

Donnie and Dwight Morrow entered the study, and Donnie immediately said, “Mr. Morrow, I hope you can stay in Mexico for another two years!”
