【030】 Ambassador of the Qing Dynasty
What Long Hao has to do is to acquire these Chinese fisheries that are on the verge of bankruptcy!
Hong Zaimo told Long Hao these things when he was still in Longjian, because many of the fishery owners who are still holding on are old people in Hongmen. If Long Hao wants to acquire it, it will be convenient for Hong Zaimo to come forward and talk about it.
Much faster!
At first, Long Hao just asked casually. After all, at that time, he still had faith in the chemists of this era. However, since the illusion of "whitening potion" was shattered, he started to think about these Chinese fisheries again!
Chinese, fishing grounds, rich breeding experience! Long Hao licked his mouth, stood in the smoky San Francisco port, raised his hands towards the vast ocean: Master, I want to take all of these back to Alaska!
In San Francisco's Chinatown, under a flag-style double-story building, Mr. Long and Mr. Cui walked out angrily. The Chinese people around them looked at these two strange people with strange eyes.
At this time, Chinatown was very much like a lively temple fair in China. From beginning to end, there were Chinese people with braids and mandarin jackets, some were lion dancers, some were setting up stalls, and some were holding up sticks and bowing their heads when meeting people.
The fortune tellers who were reciting sutras all had pretty faces. Of course, there were also a few beardless dandies walking around holding birdcages.
The building that Long Hao just walked out of was written with the four characters "Wang's Fisheries" from right to left. However, when the owner inside saw Long Hao and Cui Yuanlang with their pigtails cut off, they waved off without saying a word!
It made Long Hao very depressed!
Long Hao muttered: "Isn't it just a pigtail cut? We are talking about business, what does it have to do with the Qing Dynasty's pig tail?"
But the initiative is in the hands of others. If the fishery boss doesn’t like you and won’t talk to you, there’s nothing you can do about it!
Cui Yuanlang bought two bunches of candied haws, wrapped them carefully, and then said to Long Hao: "Master, when these people heard that we were escaping from China, they cut off our braids and avoided us like the plague, for fear of getting involved.
What a disaster! Hey, this is America, how can the hand of the imperial court be so long that it can reach across the ocean? Idiot, these people are hopelessly stupid!"
After cutting his braids and joining the Dragon Scale Party, the Qing Dynasty became insignificant in Cui Yuanlang's heart, and he was filled with contempt!
"Hmph!" Long Hao took out a bunch of candied haws, put it in his mouth, chewed it hard, and chewed the sugar crumbs squeaking: "These people, on the surface, are overseas Chinese who immigrated to the United States, but deep down they still have a certain
I have a slavish nature, I believe in the corrupt and incompetent Qing dynasty, and I look forward to one day being able to return home in glory! It was my miscalculation. To deal with these Chinese who consider themselves slaves, I still have to use my status as a foreigner to suppress them! Let’s go back!”
"Oh... Master, wait for me and let me buy another bunch of candied haws. The two bunches were asked by Yuan'er and the princess to buy for me!"
Long Hao went to acquire Chinese fisheries. At first, Melissa advocated using the name of the O&M company, but Long Hao rejected it. He felt that the Chinese people all over the world are one family, and it might be more convenient to negotiate in person!
But who would have expected, after running around for a day and trying three Chinese fisheries that I had inquired about, without exception, when the other party heard about Long Hao's identity, he looked at the empty space behind his head, and immediately closed the door and thanked the guests, as if chasing away the plague.
Generally, he drove Long Hao out.
Therefore, the angry Master Long decided to put up Princess Melissa's "big tiger skin"!
The Fang Family Courtyard is a courtyard house located in the most prosperous area of Chinatown. To be able to build such a courtyard house like old Beijing in Chinatown where land is so expensive, the Fang Family Courtyard is extraordinary!
This is indeed the case. The old man of the Fang family has settled in San Francisco since 1860 and has taken root in Chinatown. After years of hard work, he has more properties than anyone can count. In terms of wealth, he is definitely ranked among the top three among the Chinese in San Francisco!
In addition, the old man of the Fang family is also one of the elders of Hongmen. He is highly respected and respected. If he coughs, Chinatown will shake three times!
However, Hongmen is called Hongmen secretly. In the United States, all associations must be officially registered. Therefore, Hongmen’s registered name with the San Francisco City Council is called ‘China General Association’.
Mr. Fang Mingde is one of the three deputy directors of the guild hall. The director... the name written on it is Hong Tianzhu!
Today is a good day for Fang Mingde's second son to take a concubine. There is a big banquet in the yard, and there are also distinguished guests sitting in the hall. Fang Mingde is wearing a bright red dress, his face is red, and he is wearing an official hat and long hair.
The distinguished guests of Whip had a great time chatting with each other and laughed heartily from time to time!
It was not yet noon, and the banquet had not started yet. Just as Fang Yingliang, who was covered in the word "happy", was holding up his wine glass and preparing to address the guests, a gunshot suddenly rang out outside the door. It was so clear that the people in the yard were silent!
What happened? Someone took advantage of his ambition and dared to destroy Mr. Fang’s wedding banquet?
After a brief moment of surprise, several people stood up from the table and stepped out to see what was going on. Some were so frightened that they crawled under the table, muttering in their stomachs and trembling in their calves.
After all, the Fang family is a family of martial arts, and Fang Yingliang also has the style of being a father. He rushed to the front and said loudly: "Don't panic, everyone, our Fang family will resist everything! Guarantee everyone's safety!"
Fang Mingde, who was sitting in the seat, also snorted coldly: "Yingming, Yingquan, take someone with you and go out to see who is so rude?"
It's a good wedding banquet, but if you make such a fuss, isn't it just a joke for Mr. Cui?
"No need, we are here for a wedding banquet. This shot is to congratulate Young Master Fang on the birth of his son!"
Just after Fang Mingde finished speaking, a group of people came out of the courtyard. The leader was a Western aristocratic girl wearing a veil, and her guards were all yellow-skinned Chinese, but they all held guns in their hands and were full of murderous intent.
.
Needless to say, the aristocratic girl is Melissa, and the one who just shouted was Cui Yuanlang, who was pretending to be the villain.
Fang Yingming is the eldest son of the Fang family. He has a square face and is heavy and steady. He stepped forward, guarding Yingliang behind him, and said in a deep voice: "May I ask where your distinguished guest comes from? Does he have any grudge against our Fang family?"
Long Hao pretended to be an attendant. He waited for Fang Yingming to finish speaking, then immediately leaned into Melissa's ear and pretended to translate.
Melissa also cooperated, nodded and spoke a series of Spanish words.
Long Hao understood and 'translated': "This is Princess Melissa of the Spanish royal family. I heard that Mr. Fang held a wedding banquet, so I came to congratulate you! Come and give me a gift!"
Several members of the field regiment immediately stepped forward, presented a plate covered with red silk, and handed it to Fang Yingming.
Are you really here to give gifts and have a drink? Spanish princess, why don’t I remember that my father has any dealings with the Spaniards? Should I accept this gift or not?
I originally thought that it was other discordant people who came to cause trouble, but who knew it was a foreigner... Rao Na Fang Yingming had seen a lot of things in the world, and he couldn't help but be stunned at this moment, and hurriedly turned around to ask Fang Mingde for help!
"It turns out she is the princess of Rizbania. My envoy Cui Guoyin has just returned from a visit to your country. I wonder if Queen Christina is okay?" A voice came from behind the three brothers of the Fang family, and everyone got out of the way.
Chapter completed!
