The owner of the grocery store was very surprised that this foreigner could speak such a fluent Mandarin and even more surprised what he wanted to buy. He said in Chinese: "Sir, I have yellow paper here. As for cinnabar, it should be sold in the pharmacy. Shu Huazhai has it. "
Jiang Hao nodded and offered 10 dollars to the boss. "You are familiar with this, can you buy it for me?"
The boss immediately took the money. "No problem, no problem." He instructed the folks to look at the store, walked out of the store with their robes in hand, and went to buy something for this Mr. Yang.
The boss moved quickly, and bought a bag of cinnabar, three wolves, and took two thick stacks of yellow paper in his shop. "Sir, I shared 4 dollars and 50 cents, and the rest The money is here. "
Jiang Hao waved his hand. "The rest is rewarding. Send the things to the hotel."
The boss was overjoyed and bowed in a hurry.
The reward of five dollars, this gentleman is really generous, he may not make so much money in a day.
Back at the hotel, Jenny was very curious about what Jiang Hao bought these things, and Jiang Hao explained to her, "This is an Eastern technique, just like Western magic."
"Is there any magic in the East?" Jenny was more curious.
"Yes, I have come in contact."
"Oh, the East is really a magical country." Jenny sighed.
A few moments later, a peace rune was drawn, and Jiang Hao folded it and gave it to Jenny. "A gift for you, it will protect your safety."
"Jon, you are serious."
"of course."
Jenny carefully received her small satchel.
A few days passed, Yu Rong came over and said goodbye to Jiang Hao. "The boat is going tonight. We will board the boat today. Come and say goodbye to you."
Jiang Hao brought one of his brothers, Yu Rong, Jiang Wen, and Princess to the dock. Just before boarding the ship, the Princess Pepe came to Jiang Hao and looked up at Jiang Hao. "Mr. Hall, May I make a request to you. "
Jiang Hao frowns a bit, let's be familiar with it.
"Please speak."
Princess Pepe groaned and said: "Mr. Hall, what you said to me a few days ago, my heart was very shaken. In Chinatown these days, I also walked around and contacted some people in Qing Dynasty. They Life was really difficult. "
"The kind of discrimination you said is really ubiquitous. I'm leaving. I know that you have a good opinion of the Chinese because you have a Taoist master. I hope you can help them, even if it is just one or two. "
Princess Peipe looked at Jiang Hao with hope in her eyes.
Jiang Hao paused. "I can't make any promises. I just follow my heart and do things. If I can help them, I will help as much as I can to help Jiang Wen rescue you."
Woo ~~~
The whistle sounded,
The sea ship sailed towards the ocean. The princess and Jiang Wen did not stay in the United States as in the original work. Jiang Hao really did not think that staying here was a good choice.
In fact, the so-called Chinese Exclusion Act is a bill that prevents Chinese from entering the United States and is the first immigration law aimed at certain ethnic groups passed by the United States.
After the passage of the 1882 Act, it is generally not allowed for later Chinese to immigrate to the United States. Those who have already come must apply for a registration certificate and be expelled without a registration certificate. From the effective date of this bill, no state or federal fǎyuàn shall grant Chinese citizenship to the United States.
As for discrimination against Chinese people in the United States, they are mainly from the whites. Because of their pride, just as they look down on black people, they also look down on yellow people. This is due to the concept of treating all people of color as pariahs and inferiors.
Back at the hotel, Jiang Hao called the guys and said, "Now, I'm going to make a decision that may affect our future lives. I want to ask for your opinions."
Everyone looked at Jiang Hao.
"Now that we have a lot of money, the days of wandering may no longer be suitable for us. We need a fixed place, or base, to protect our property." Jiang Hao said.
"We can put money in the bank," Roy said.
Zhuang hànwéi sitting next to him gave him a punch, "Are you stupid, if the bank is robbed by a robber like us one day, and the bank declares bankruptcy, our property will be gone."
Everyone laughed.
"We may be able to buy a large plot of land and build a manor house, each of you has your own villa, and you start a company or two, and you are shareholders." Jiang Hao looked at everyone after he finished speaking.
Do you have a stable life? It is definitely the ideal of all people. Before they were bounty hunters, it was not for the money, but for the sake of a better life.
"It sounds great, I agree," Bill said first.
"Agree ~"
"Agree ~"
Not long after everyone voted in favour.
"Very well, it seems that our wishes are the same. I decided to go to Los Angeles to develop. Do you have any opinions?" Jiang Hao said.
"No problem, I support the decision of the head," Roy said immediately.
Zhuang hànwéi En hammered this guy again, "That's because your mind can't compare with your head at all."
Everyone laughed again.
With the plan in place, and the rest was almost there, Jiang Hao's team set off again and rushed to Los Angeles.
Why did Jiang Hao no longer develop in San Francisco?
He had seen the data before crossing. San Francisco was by no means a good place. A magnitude 7 earthquake occurred in 1898, houses collapsed, and the city was rebuilt. In 1906, a super earthquake occurred, reaching level 8. Above, the entire San Francisco was razed to the ground, thousands of people were killed, and property losses amounted to $ 400 million.
It was 400 million US dollars in 1906, which is equivalent to tens of billions of later generations.
There is no need for Jiang Hao to build his career on a shaker, but Los Angeles is a good choice. It is strategically located and there is a huge treasure hidden underneath. It has not been discovered yet. He feels that it is definitely a robbery that he can snatch. The goal.
perhaps,
It's not bad to rob a city.
When the time comes, they will buy land and set up factories. The Chinese are the most diligent. Let them work for themselves, build Chinese communities, and protect them. At the very least, they can make their lives better, without having to be burned by later dǎzáqiǎng.
As for accepting Chinese, they may be targeted and excluded by other white people.
Is Jiang Hao afraid?
The soldiers came to cover the water and the soil ~ www.novelhall.com ~ I came to fight with qiāng. As long as I have the strength, I'm afraid that you will have a hammer and you're done.
Besides, as long as you have money and become a wealthy and wealthy consortium, are you afraid of the crowds of others? In this world, strength is everything, and in the United States, money is everything.
On making money in this era, Jiang Hao is not afraid of anyone.
The so-called eight major consortiums and ten major consortia in later generations of the United States, Morgan, Rockefeller, Chicago, Mellon, DuPont, Boston and Cleveland, First Citibank, California, Texas Consortium.
Some are just beginning to emerge, and some are not yet formed. They are still embryonic. The strongest is Rothschild. As for the future, a Hall consortium may be added.
San Francisco is 900 kilometers away from Los Angeles. Even a horse-drawn carriage ride is too tiring. The most convenient and comfortable transportation method in this era is the steam train, which runs all the way in white smoke. It is really exciting.
Trousers and pants.
The train started.
