The Ninth Year of the Liberation, March 1st. The Spring Festival has just passed.

Yung Wing sat in the carriage, holding his forehead, and was so deep that he didn't know what he was thinking. In the carriage, there was only a big boss Bai Siwen who was so energetic. Bai Siwen has been living in this long-haired nest in Tangshan Town these days.

Of course, I couldn't eat or sleep well. I was worried, so I could only ask the shopkeeper I brought to find a house for him in San Francisco City so that I could escape from the bandit's nest as soon as possible. Today Yung Wing is going to visit Hong on Chinatown, San Francisco City

Shunting the door, he followed him out to see the house. He sat opposite Yung Wing, but sighed and shook his head from time to time and complained to himself.

"Brother Enming, do you think that the Chinese in California are a mess, and it is hard to be so grand?" Yung Wing didn't know that Bai Siwen was once a high-ranking official of the Qing Dynasty. Now he was scared to death by a bunch of big and long hairs. He thought he was just like himself.

I was worried about the difficult job in California.

Taking advantage of the New Year, Yung Wing has a comprehensive understanding of the situation of the California Chinese community through Chen Yucheng and Huang Ziwen. Finally, he came to the conclusion that California Chinese are just a mess, although most of them

They all have foreign guns, but they are just loose sands holding guns. This is probably the main reason why Chinese people are suppressed by white people who are less than theirs?

Bai Siwen sighed and waved his hand and said, "Oh, where are we Chinese? At least there are more than 300,000 white people in California, more than the entire Southeast Asian... And there are no less than tens of millions of Chinese in Southeast Asian countries, three more than California.

Ten times, what is the result? Apart from Lan Fang and Siam, aren’t Chinese people still ruled by white people in other places? If the Chinese in Southeast Asia could unite, there would be a Chinese world there long ago!”

Yung Wing was stunned for a moment, nodded and thoughtfully: "That's right...but aren't the Chinese in Lan Fang united?"

Bai Siwen smiled coldly: "That is unity? That is the emperor's conquering! We Chinese are not like them whites. We can recommend the boss by voting such unpredictable things, and we have to be really bigger than the size of a fist!

This is the rule in the East. I think Genghis Khan also defeated the Mongolian tribes, Nurhaci also unified Jianzhou by force, and the Haixi Jurchens. But this California is not Lan Fang, Mongolia, and Jianzhou, and Haixi, this is the United States ruled by white people.

...It is impossible for King Yang Dong to defeat other Chinese gangs. If they make a big splash, they will definitely interfere. Chunfu, then Chen Yuchengke told you about the US military deployment in California?"

"That's not weak." Yung Wing frowned. "California is different from Lan Fang. We Chinese really can't be forced to do with the Americans unless... unite and back up with the mother country

It is possible to succeed.”

Chen Yucheng did not tell Bai Siwen about the deployment of the US military in California, but he had a brief discussion with Yung Wing. The US military power in California was divided into federal troops and state militias, with about 15,000 people, and was equipped very well.

The combat effectiveness is about equal to a horse-riding infantry division of the Ming army's grassland legion; the number of the latter is not fixed, the white people in California are quite brave, and many men are reserve militias. If they want to mobilize, the guns of 50,000 people can be pulled out.

Force, even if the Ming army directly sends troops, it may not be easy to take it down. In fact, the US government deployed "heavy troops" in California to prevent the Ming Dynasty from invading from the sea. In addition to the army, half of the US navy is also deployed in coastal bases in California.

In addition, the US federal government is preparing to further strengthen its military presence in California and plans to increase its garrison to more than 30,000. Such a force is indeed irresistible to the scattered Chinese.

Bai Siwen slapped his face, "Isn't that all, if you want to unite, you must have a hero coming out to suppress all the hills, but the white people in California would not let this hero appear. If the Dutch had tens of thousands of troops in Borneo, there would be no one at all.

What's wrong with the emperor? And to withstand the pressure of white people, unless we unite all Chinese... This is the question of whether there is a chicken or an egg first. It's just a dead knot and cannot be untied at all!"

"No, there must be a solution!" Yung Wing shook his head heavily and his eyes turned out to the window. The car had entered the downtown area of ​​San Francisco and was driving on the street near the dock. California leads to Hawaii.

The first two routes from Japan and Mexico are controlled by Chinese merchants, so half of the merchant ships entering and leaving the Kinmen Strait every day belong to Chinese merchants. Every day, hundreds of Chinese people travel across the ocean to reach this hopeful new continent.

The arrival of this has made the number advantage of the Chinese in California more and more obvious... At the same time, their hard work has made California more and more prosperous, making California in the United States more and more prosperous! This will undoubtedly strengthen the power of the United States!

Although the United States has not yet broken up and expelled the Chinese, what about the future? When the United States, a huge and wealthy white country, grows and grows, will it eventually become an empire as powerful as Russia (In Yung Wing's view, it is still

Russia is relatively powerful), and will it become a super power that is hostile to the Ming Dynasty across the Pacific Ocean? Will the Chinese still gain a foothold in California? Will everything they have worked hard to create finally be the wedding dress for others?

No, the Chinese in California must unite. Unity is strength. Only by uniting can California become the real home of Chinese.

...

Just as Yung Wing racked his brains to think about how to unite the Chinese in California, a sailboat full of Japanese was slowly sailing through Golden Gate Bay and heading towards the dock in San Francisco. This sailboat that looked a little old

On the front deck, a group of men in kimono were holding the railings, opening their mouths, looking at the vast and prosperous land of America. The two leaders were Takanaga Saigo and Kogoro Kashi. They were not trying to immigrate to the United States, but

I am preparing to transfer to Panama in San Francisco.

After two years of exploration, the Japanese found the best voyage to Patagonia: Panama, the west coast of Japan and the United States, then took land to the Atlantic coast, and then took a sailboat to Patagonia at the southern end of South America.

This trouble looks tiring, but it is indeed the fastest route to Patagonia. Because Patagonia looks like it can travel directly to Japan on the map, but the sailing ships currently require the help of wind and

The ocean currents are windy from Japan to the west coast of the United States, but the ship is heading against the wind from the west coast of the United States to southern South America, and the speed is naturally slow. Over time, the ship consumes more supplies, and the number of passengers can be carried is small. The cost is

Naturally, it will be too high. It is better to detour the Atlantic coast from Panama and then take a sailboat to the south.

But after all this trouble, the cost along the way could not be saved. An immigrant who had no 70 or 80 silver dollars could not reach Patagonia. He had to spend at least 20 or 30 silver dollars to resettlement fee to get there.

This is just hundreds of people. How to immigrate tens of thousands of dollars a year, it requires at least several million travel expenses and resettlement expenses. This has not yet considered the cost of developing a new Japan. This is really a Xixiang, who has just become the leader of the New Japan Management Office.

Long Yong was so anxious that he was a little desperate.

"Sigo Jun, the United States has arrived. It is said to be the richest country in the world today! How about we visit ashore? Maybe we can find any way to make money. As long as we have money, there will definitely be a way to develop the new Japan.

of!"

The one who spoke was that the New Japan Finance pursued the Victory Sea Boat. Compared with Saigo's sad face, he was an optimistic person. Although he really had few kids in his pocket, he believed that the road to Japan would always find a way.

"Okay, then go ashore and see, maybe... there will be a solution." Saigo Takanaga thought for a while, and then added, "Just Katsujun and I, Guijun, got off the boat, and the others remained on the boat,
Chapter completed!
