Chapter 544 The True Recruitment Sect - the key minority!
San Francisco, Chinatown underground wine cellar.
Hong Renzheng's golden crown shines in dark light under the whale oil lamp, and the white-headed carving pattern on the enamel tobacco box in his hand is lifelike. Lincoln's slender figure is cast on the oak barrel, and two dusty California Republicans stand next to him.
—The Whigs in the United States suffered a great split in 1854 due to the abolition issue. Some Whigs in the north who advocated abolition formed the Republican Party, and Lincoln was one of them. The 1856 election was the new Republican Party
The key to whether we can establish a font in American politics! The key to the election is money, and the other is votes, especially votes that can play a key role at critical moments.
And these two things are not short of real-time jobs on the West Coast! Needless to say, the real-time jobs that monopolize the supply of daily necessities and mining tools on the West Coast are the most in short supply. And the key votes are the real-time jobs on the World Coast.
There are many in it. Although it is difficult for Chinese to naturalize, they naturally cannot get votes. However, the True Recruitment School also has many white believers - whether they are to marry Sakura Girl, to eat free eggs, or to get Hong Xiuquan to bless them.
The true conspiracy faction who came in with gold, anyway, with Hong Renzheng's order, the votes in their hands will become the key factor in the 1856 election!
In fact, the Mormon leader Brannan, who was assassinated just now, also used similar methods to elect a federal senator.
Of course, Luo Yaoguo knew this method. So he really sent Japanese diocese and North American diocese to spend a lot of money in the past two years, and at least five or six thousand cherry blossom girls were paid out, and he also received thousands of unfulfilled orders.
Pacific Marriage - Considering the imbalance of the West Coast of the Gold Rush, the Sakura Girl of the True Tale is so attractive.
And these already-deserved and yet-deserved trans-Pacific marriages, plus the white men who joined the True Talk because of eggs and "Hong Caishen Blessing", Hong Renzheng has at least 15,000 to 20,000 votes in his hands.
.
Compared with the more than 300,000 white population in California (at least 200,000 of which have the right to vote), this 50,000 to 20,000 votes is a minority, almost 10% - the more than 200,000 white people with the right to vote are busy pursuing gold.
, only a hundred thousand people who really can vote, the True Deal can organize all white male believers to vote - but for the Republican Party, Whig Party and Democrats, who will kill the life-and-death Republican Party, the Whig Party and the Democratic Party, in the 1856 election year,
Ten percent of California's votes are really fatal attraction!
Hong Renzheng's disciple, Irish immigrant Jamie O'Connor, also changed into a dress and put on a top hat, and stood beside Hong Renzheng in a well-dressed manner.
"This is Jamie O'Connor," Lincoln pointed to the red-bearded man, "is the president of the Irish Immigration Union, and he has the support of the True Recruitment, with 20,000 votes in California. This is still the number so far, next year's election
At that time, this number may become 30,000 votes!”
O'Connor's heel tapped on the floor: "As long as you Republicans support me in the by-election of the federal senator and the 1856 federal senator election, and support my friend Smith." He pointed to the San Francisco Customs."
Commissioner Smith"—This person has long been secretly joined the True Party. "If you run for the mayor of San Francisco, then our Irish Immigration Union and the True Party will vote for the Republican Party for 20,000 or 30,000 votes!"
Lincoln turned his attention to two California Republican leaders: "John, William, what do you think? With these 20,000 or 30,000 votes, the Republican Party will sweep California in the 1856 election, and maybe it will win the governor and all of them.
Federal Senators, Representatives and Electoral Votes!”
A Republican took off his bowler hat and exposed his bald forehead. The man was named William Sherman, a Sacramento lawyer and an active California Republican: "Twenty or thirty thousand votes. It sounds good.
Ah!" He looked at Jamie O'Connor, "Then will you propose to revoke the Foreign Miner License Tax Act?" His sharp eyes swept over Hong Renzheng, "Biss Hong, if I remember correctly, you really make an appointment
The faction has always opposed this legislation!”
"No!" Jamie O'Connor shook his head, "I would not propose to revoke the Foreign Miner License Tax Act, and it is California law, not federal law, and it is useless for me to propose as a federal senator."
Hong Renzheng knocked on the barrel with a cigarette box: "In fact, we are not really against this legislation because digging gold is not a long-term industry, and our believers are going to take root in California." He saw Sherman's eyes
greed, “I also know that you will find a very valuable gold mine on the territory of the British Hudson Bay Company by the end of 1855!”
Sherman nodded to another Republican in the shadow: "John, I think this deal can be done! If you want to try the 1856 presidential election, California's electoral votes are also important."
The Republican who always stands in the shadow is named John Fremont. He hopes to represent the Republican Party in 1856 to challenge the presidential throne. Although the possibility of success is not high, it is also good to get a few more electoral votes.
It will help him continue to work hard and lay the foundation for the 1860 general election.
Fremont's cane hit the ground: "I heard you really asked to send a gold mine in the Rocky Mountains through the Irish shell company."
“To be precise, it’s five.” Hong Renzheng took out a deer-skin bag from his sleeve and poured out a few unsanded gold ore, “as long as Mr. Fremont supports Mr. O’Connor and Mr. Smith in the name of Republicans
Run for election and dissuade the Governor from attempting to mobilize state soldiers to deal with our true corps. The proceeds from these gold mines can be used for your campaign."
"But you killed Brannan!" Fremont said with a calm face, "That's a federal senator, and he is the leader of the Mormon religion. Utah Governor Brigham Young will not sit idly by!"
"No, no, Senator Brannan was not assassinated by us. In fact, he died of a heart attack. He was too excited when he was playing with a Japanese prostitute. We have evidence!" Hong Renzheng took out a cloth in his sleeves.
The pockets were placed on the barrel, "Mr. Lincoln, Mr. Fremont, Mr. Sherman, you all look!"
"This is." Fremont's face became even heavier.
Hong Renzheng smiled and said, "I heard that the Mormons in California have a 'Paradise Manor' near the beach outside San Francisco. There are many young girls inside. Many Californian dignitaries were once guests there, and there are photos.
To prove Mr. Fremont with the girl, although we are a minority, we are very, very critical!"
Sacramento State Government, at noon, the sun is dazzling.
Governor John Bigglare tore a golden picture to pieces, but the paper confetti was still mocking his empty militia list. On Fifth Avenue outside the window, twenty carriages filled with iron picks and tents were being
Drive out of the city, the flag "King Hong Tian Bless Us" inserted in front of the car was blew by the sea breeze of the Pacific Ocean.
"There is only a cook left in the Ninth Militia Company!" The adjutant held the torn conscription order, "Everyone went to dig gold, for fear of falling behind, and the 10th Militia Company was left."
Before he finished speaking, the oak door was pushed open suddenly. Lincoln's slender figure cast a blade-like shadow on the carpet. William Sherman followed closely with an alligator briefcase, and the last one came in was the Chang in California politics.
Green Fremont, Biglale suddenly smelled the conspiracy.
"Maybe we can talk about the conditions." Sherman pulled out the gilded photo frame from his bag, an unknown and pleasant party, faithfully recorded by photography: Bigley hugged two in Mormon white
The girl in skirt, Senator Brannan was holding a champagne glass in the background.
The California governor's face turned pale, and fire was almost spitting out from his sunken eyes, "Where did you get this photo?"
William Sherman said coldly: "We not only got the photos, but also met the two girls in the photos. They are both Brannan's 'spiritual wives', both very young and have a deep impression on you.
.”
The California governor waved his hand fiercely at his adjutant, sent him out, and then looked at the three people in front of him fiercely: "What do you want to do?"
"We want a stable, united, and prosperous California under the leadership of the Republican Party!" Lincoln said, "My friend, join the Republican Party and join us in opposing sinful slavery!"
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥Book⊥⊥⊥First⊥!
The California governor glanced at the photo: "So what do the real people want? What do those damn Chinese want?"
Fremont smiled: "Friends! They just want to make friends." He pointed to the two girls in the photo, "They both miss Uncle John very much! I don't think you will refuse to save these two cute girls, right?
”
At the same time, Fort Victoria Pier.
Luo Dagang's military boots stepped on the slippery pier, and Muravijov unbuttoned the scarlet cloak, exposed the golden ribbon of sand and the medal of St. George, and quickly walked down the "Natalia Grand Master".
The female grand duke himself and Wu Chongyao, the special envoy of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, followed behind the East Siberian Governor of the Russian Empire.
The two generals who were supposed to fight to the death on the battlefield looked at each other on the dock of Fort Victoria and stretched out their palms to each other, holding their hands tightly together. Natalia took the opportunity to come up.
A relaxed expression flashed in his eyes: "It's great, it seems that we have finally reached a consensus!"
Wu Chongyao, who was standing by, said to Luo Dagang in Chinese: "Marty, the secret peace agreement has been signed. In the future, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Russian Empire will fight a fake war on the Pacific Ocean and the west coast of North America!"
