New Ming Empire mixed in America

The negotiation process went so smoothly that Roderick could not have imagined it.

In less than two days, the contract was signed, the location for the vault was selected, and even the building materials were delivered.

After everything was almost settled, except for Roderick and two assistants who needed to stay here, the bank representatives had already started preparing their luggage to return to San Francisco.

That's right, this time, His Majesty Li Mingqi, a generous Eastern nobleman, a handsome and talented man, and the savior in the eyes of the common people, presented exquisite gifts to all San Francisco friends.

In addition to tea leaves and porcelain, their luggage also contained a special medicine called Viagra.

After testing, this miracle medicine has become an indispensable miracle medicine for them.

Li Mingqi said that I am serious about giving gifts.

However, when these people left, they did not forget to bring the first bank representative who had been detained some time ago onto the ship.

As for why it needs to be held, then you have to ask the unlucky guy who is put in the small box at this time.

The reception of Spanish warships has also been very smooth. In the past few months, the Spanish navy has been able to sail on its own ships.

Those who have no connections have now gone to Dongfang Li's various construction sites to move bricks, and they all expressed good results.

The rest are some officers. Without Major General Pedro, their appetite is actually not big.

Now that there is one less officer to share the bulk of the money from selling the boats, everyone's income is much richer than in the past.

As for whether the Spanish government will cause trouble for them after the two warships are sold?

Sorry, they are now Americans, and wealthy Americans at that.

There are even a few who stay with Li Mingqi because they value high wages and write training manuals for the navy of the new Ming Empire.

Now that the battleship is in hand, it's time to start the next plan.

If Li Mingqi writes a memoir in the future, he will definitely give this period of time a nice name. At that time, it may be called: The Birth of an American Overlord, starting with the renaming of Los Angeles.

"stand at attention!"

Sun Laifu's voice echoed through the loudspeakers around the square.

Suddenly, the two thousand National Defense Force soldiers in the square stepped forward neatly and stood up straight.

This is the square in the Long Beach dock area. Because it is used to transfer materials to the factory area, a square was specially built.

Li Mingqi spent a long time choosing this location. There are many people, it is spacious, and it is very suitable for flexing muscles.

On the makeshift commander's platform, Li Mingqi, dressed in a marshal's dragon-patterned robe, looked with satisfaction at the soldiers of the National Defense Forces who were arranged in four square formations below.

As for the Jin Yiwei, they were scattered around the perimeter to perform security duties.

The square is surrounded by a fence, and there is a very conspicuous red line on the ground two meters beyond the fence.

Anyone can watch this military parade. But if anyone dares to cross the red line on the ground, the guards will shoot him without hesitation.

Because we had been notified in advance, all the white people who came to watch the excitement were very conscious, and no one crossed the red line.

Of course, their self-consciousness may also be related to the bayonets placed on their chests by the imperial guards.

Barricades have also been set up at several important locations, and several hand-cranked rotary machine guns that have just been tested have been erected in place.

If anyone dares to cause trouble this time, it's a good time to try the gun.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, the first regiment of the New Ming Empire's National Defense Force has been assembled. Please inspect it!"

Sun Laifu's voice was sonorous and powerful. Although he was a little over 1.5 meters tall in front of a group of soldiers with an average height of 1.65 meters, it did not affect his majesty at all.

"Start!" Li Mingqi's words were very majestic.

For these two words, Li Mingqi recorded for a long time yesterday before choosing one that he was very satisfied with. Yes, the two words that resounded through the speakers just now were recorded, and our Emperor was only responsible for opening his mouth.

"Your Majesty has ordered that the entire army begin to review!"

Liu Erhe stood behind Li Mingqi and read Li Mingqi's oral instructions loudly.

Because Liu Youcai was a civil servant, he just stood quietly, stroking the beard on his chin with his right hand.

However, it is not difficult to see the excitement in his heart from the way he pulls off a few strands from time to time.

"Nearly a year has passed since the late Emperor traveled to all directions, and now Long Live the Lord has spread the prestige of our country overseas. How magnificent is my new Ming, and how magnificent is China!"

Just as Liu Youcai was expressing his feelings, a burst of passionate music came from the loudspeaker:

With all the people united, the mountains can be shaken

The Lord will kiss me better than my parents

If you violate military law, you will not be free.

…

Clear orders, letters of rewards and punishments

Go to water and fire, dare to stay late

Report to the emperor and save the head of Guizhou

Kill all the barbarians and find a marquis

…………

This "Triumph Song", with a few words changed, still sounds very morale-boosting.

Accompanying the rhythm of "Victory Song", groups of soldiers of the National Defense Force began to march along the square with neat steps.

(Because the venue is cramped, please imagine the scene of the sports meeting review by yourself.)

When the soldiers came to the stage, they all changed into goose-stepping. The neat sound of their protective shoes stepping on the sand was even more shocking when amplified by the loudspeaker.

If you don’t believe it, just look at the white people outside the fence.

These people have gradually become quiet since the "Victory Song" was played just now.

When the soldiers of the National Defense Force walked in order and walked past them like clones in a row.

These people were holding their breath unconsciously. There was no way they could help it. This scene was too shocking.

Unlike the current Western armies that require the command of snare drums and whistles when advancing, the two thousand soldiers of the National Defense Force marched to a completely rhythmic pace.

During this time, under the punishment of wooden sticks and various similar punishments that were not limited to toilet cleaning, these recruits had already developed some prototypes of real warriors.

The rifles in their hands, the same camouflage uniforms worn by Wu Jing, steel helmets and various equipment all showed that these people were well equipped.

"Omag, are these Orientals all one body? Every time they lift their legs, they are at the same height."

A spy mixed in the crowd was communicating quietly with his companions.

"Is this the enemy we are facing? Now I wonder if those members of the government have brain problems?"

"I heard that those congressmen designed a set of taxes specifically for these Easterners. Is the purpose just to force these warriors from the Kingdom of God?"

"No, no, no, I think those congressmen are just asking for trouble. Look at these people's clothes, look at their shoes and muscles."

"Now that the economy is in recession, those congressmen are not thinking about how to save all the citizens of California. Instead, they are here to force these Orientals. I would not be surprised if these Orientals declare independence in the future."

Well, at this time, Chinese workers had not yet arrived in large numbers. And because of Li Mingqi, almost all Chinese on the entire West Coast came to Los Angeles.

So these people are not as hostile to Chinese as they will be in the future.

Now they are hostile to what they call the 'Irish jackass'

Ever since the Irish who fled Europe because of the Great Famine set foot on this new continent.

It quickly occupied the few jobs that were originally available. And because of its cheap wages, it was very popular among local capitalists.

Until now, these Irish people still occupy most of the jobs. So this has aroused the hostility of local Americans.

Using their unique thinking of "suppressing them if they can't compete, and discriminating if they can't be suppressed", they gave those Irish people who immigrated later a friendly nickname, that is, "Jackass".

It means to praise the Irish people's strength and hard work.

Of course, except when drinking. Once those guys get drunk, there will definitely be a lot of trouble waiting for you.

However, this kind of thing is very rare in Li Mingqi's territory.

Because those who dare to drink and cause trouble are usually rewarded with bounties.

This kind of mass incident will be extremely difficult to deal with in future generations, let alone now.

Therefore, this unique rule of Yuelai Tavern has gradually become a customary local law with the acquiescence of the California government.
