New Ming Empire mixed in America

Chapter 32 Have you seen my Los Angeles?

Li Mingqi didn't know how the Stanford family was living, but to say that his life was good would be nonsense.

Currently, three new construction sites have been opened in the factory area temporarily planned by the Xinming Empire.

Originally, Li Mingqi thought that a weapons factory was just like a small factory building.

But when he finished laying the foundation and started building the wall, Li Mingqi finally saw that something was wrong.

"Joyce, you said this is a weapons factory?"

The pronunciation of the word "family" in Li Mingqi's sentence is very strong, and it is difficult for Joyce not to notice it.

"Generous Li, you are right, this is a weapons factory."

Patting the wall that reached his chest, Joyce started to explain to Li Mingqi.

"You have to know that this is a weapons factory, not a weapons workshop. Since it is a factory, it must be divided into different factory areas."

"It consists of a wood factory, a steel factory, a gunpowder factory, a boiler factory, a bullet factory, a gun factory, a cannonball factory, a cannon factory, a flash cap factory..."

Joyce was frothing at the mouth as he spoke, not noticing that Li Mingqi's face was getting more and more ugly.

"Joyce, please stop for a moment. I remember that the weapons factory where I purchased the equipment was not of such a large scale."

Li Mingqi simply let Liu Erhe support him and stood on the wall.

He took out his telescope and looked around, and found that the factory buildings that had already laid foundations were seven or eight in size.

There are also a large amount of materials piled in the distance, as well as a construction site surrounded by wooden piles and hemp rope.

It has been nearly two months since Li Mingqi and the others arrived in Los Angeles, and not even a single wall of the weapons factory has been built.

On the contrary, the construction site was full of workers. At first glance, there were probably more than 5,000 workers.

No wonder I haven't seen Liu Youcai recently. He has to manage so many workers, let alone management. Just thinking about it gives him a headache.

"What kind of weapons workshop are you talking about? It's just a junk company that even outsources gun stocks."

"You approved it. We have signed the contract. Besides, the foundation has been laid. If we don't continue the construction, the initial investment will be in vain."

Good guy, this old guy is waiting here.

Li Mingqi really regrets saving this old guy. Now it’s better. He built such a big weapons factory at the beginning. What is the difference between this and the spectacle of saving money and hammering at the beginning of Civilization VI?

This old man simply doesn’t understand what it means to have a spectacle that harms the country.

When you open your mouth, you say the world's largest, and when you close your mouth, you say the most advanced and comprehensive.

This old man regards this as a stage to realize his ambition.

Are all design students so wild now?

On the contrary, Li Mingqi does not need to worry about the dock that is under construction.

Because this project was packaged as a whole to a San Francisco construction company, Li Mingqi was only responsible for paying the money and then waiting to receive the dock.

As for whether the contracting company will cut corners?

The new San Francisco congressman was burned to death in his office, and the entire two-story building was burned to the ground. I heard that the fire brigade couldn't put it out even if they poured water on it. How many days has it been since this happened?

It is said that as many as twelve attendants died along with him, and a female member of the Stanford family who came to visit was burned to death there.

Ordinary people may not know what's going on, but who among those with some connections in San Francisco doesn't know the brutal reputation of Oriental Lee in Los Angeles?

After the incident, some people proposed sending out state militia to expel or arrest the lawless Eastern capitalist, but nothing happened in the end.

Why?

'It's not because he gave too much (crossed out)...it's because there is no evidence, and Dongfang Li is a good friend of California.'

'He saved many businesses that were on the verge of bankruptcy, such as brick factories, lumber factories, second-hand clothing traders, etc.'

'Even the fishing industry has his support. If I were to elect mayor of San Francisco, I would definitely vote for him.'

A certain fat acting mayor of Los Angeles who did not want to be named told the truth.

The fat acting mayor who had just finished an interview with the California Times kicked his chair over.

It’s so frustrating! It’s so frustrating, it’s so frustrating!

In Los Angeles, he was originally on Li Mingqi's side.

Because they both belonged to the disadvantaged group at the beginning, they stayed together for warmth and each got what they needed. One gave more and the other received more happily!

But everything changed in less than two months!

The only lumber factory in Los Angeles moved directly to Dongfang Li's site and set up a temporary factory to provide lumber for the construction site.

The two stone quarries were even more attentive, and steamships sailed down the river to deliver goods directly to your door.

The rancher and the farmer’s butler are now stationed in the workers’ canteen. If you need anything, just ask and get it delivered!

The citizens of Los Angeles were more direct. Most of them went to the Xinming Empire to work for the Eastern capitalists with their families.

The most intolerable thing is that the iconic street signs representing the city of Los Angeles were stolen overnight, and by the time they were found, someone had nailed them to the door of Dongfang Li's workers' camp.

A new was added to it crookedly, making it New Los Angeles!

What kind of behavior is this? This is selling out the country... No, this is selling out the market!

The city of Los Angeles has gone from more than 3,000 people before Li Mingqi came to less than 300 people now. Only a little over a month has passed!

Now there are still people asking themselves what they think about the development of the region driven by Eastern capitalists?

I really want to watch it with my fists or a gun!

After venting his anger, the fat acting mayor was no longer in the mood to continue working.

Go downstairs and walk to Yuelai Restaurant not far away, ready to have a glass of Flaming Red Lips.

You read that right, because people from Los Angeles came here, causing a shortage of supplies in the city.

Moreover, the merchants' goods were sold out when they were transported to Dongfang Li's territory, so the city of Los Angeles became even more depressed.

The fat acting mayor had to move to Dongfang Li's territory to retire... ahem, he had to continue working here.

The California government has now begun considering the issue of sacking the mayor of Los Angeles.

After all, if you exclude the workers who work on farms or in quarries, there will no longer be a place for residents. It is indeed a waste to establish a mayor.

What's more, Los Angeles doesn't have an official mayor yet.

Some are just acting mayors, which is much easier to handle. They can just delay the appointment and refuse to be regularized. Anyway, we don’t know if there will be another election.

After a period of trial operation, the flaming red lips in the pub have a new style.

There are those soaked in bull whip in wine, and those in which deer whip is soaked in wine. The most expensive one is soaked in tiger whip.

I heard that this is an Eastern secret. If men drink it for a long time, it will strengthen their kidneys and strengthen their bodies.

Nowadays, ordinary flaming red lips cannot be sold. They can only be secretly poured into buckets containing various "whips" in the pub after get off work, and then sold to workers at a high price the next day.

Li Mingqi shed tears and shed blood, which is really too kind.

Pushing open the door of the tavern, the fat deputy mayor immediately saw the bald police chief who should appear in Los Angeles at this time.

Now the oriental-colored security uniform worn by the other party is really eye-catching.

The fat deputy mayor couldn't help but tidy up his accounting uniform with buckles.

That's right, his main occupation now is construction site accounting, responsible for recording the wages of each worker.

His deputy career is the acting mayor of the Los Angeles ghost town.

After the two looked at each other for a while, they naturally looked away. They each found a corner and started listening to music and drinking a small drink.

After the Qing people detained from San Francisco arrived here, an Oriental band appeared in the tavern.

Every day, there are people wearing sunglasses and playing the piece called "One Moon, Two Springs" in the pub with an instrument called the erhu.

The most popular instrument in the band is the suona, which is more exciting to play than the harmonica and accordion.

Every time the suona sounds, I don't know why, but my father who has passed away long ago always comes to mind.

The bartender said that new patterns will be released in a few days. It is said that the musical instrument seems to be a board made of bamboo, and the route is a rare rap mashup style.

‘It’s really exciting’

Listening to the performance of the suona, the fat acting mayor wiped away his tears and took another sip of tiger penis wine.

Life is so boring and boring.
