New Ming Empire mixed in America

Li Mingqi, escorted by Liu Erhe and other Jinyi guards, inspected the feasibility of building an expressway from the dock area.

At this time, Yingtianfu, the capital of the Xinming Empire, was like a blank sheet of paper. Not to mention a decent road, there were not even a few well-trodden paths.

Fortunately, many ranches in California were on the verge of bankruptcy due to drought at this time, so Li Mingqi was able to buy enough horses to equip the National Defense Forces and Guards.

"Long live Lord, I think the roads in the Foxconn factory are very good. The gravel road is dust-free when walking on it, and there is no muddy water to stick to your feet when it rains."

Liu Erhe expressed his views on the first road that the empire was about to start building.

"Gravel roads can be built quickly, but they will become bumpy again within a few years."

"It's not like you've never seen the cement road in the Royal Academy, why would you want to build a gravel road?"

Li Mingqi was very curious about why Liu Erhe mentioned using gravel to build roads. He had also seen cement roads, but today, given his personality, he did not mention the cement road.

"Long live Lord, this is what my father asked me to say. He said that the cement in the warehouse should be reserved for you to build the palace, and it should not be wasted on building roads."

Liu Erhe told the reason very honestly, which made Li Mingqi wonder whether he should be moved or not.

Although Liu Youcai and his son did not have much ability, their concern for him was sincere.

Unlike the former regent Cui Jianguo, the old man now looks completely happy and unwilling to think about Shu.

I sent him a letter asking him to leave San Francisco as soon as possible, but he didn't listen. It seemed that he was staying and flying in San Francisco with the widow from the Puppet Qing Dynasty. This made Li Mingqi quite helpless.

Liu Youcai has written many times, requesting Li Mingqi to send Jin Yiwei to San Francisco to capture him.

However, they were all declined by Li Mingqi. Everyone has their own ambitions and cannot be forced.

If you say Liu Youcai, Liu Youcai will come.

From a distance, Liu Youcai rode over on a mule, followed by three special middle-aged men.

Before he could reach Li Mingqi, Liu Youcai got off the mule from a distance, straightened his clothes, and then came over with the three of them.

He probably didn’t want these three people to lose etiquette in front of Long Live Lord. Liu Youcai said to the three middle-aged people beside him as he walked:

"When I meet Long Live Lord later, I should kneel down. Because of Long Live Lord's size, we don't have to kneel down, but we must not understand the dignity and inferiority."

Liu Youcai was very serious in teaching him how to meet you. Since he was walking in front, he didn't see the leader of the three people behind him frown slightly.

Just when Liu Youcai was earnestly instructing a few people on how to reverse history, a few people finally came to Li Mingqi.

"Long live my lord, I came here because of my recommendation." Liu Youcai's old face turned into a smile, and he excitedly pulled the few people following him to his side.

"These three people were all former Juren members of the Puppet Qing Dynasty. They later moved to San Francisco due to minor frictions between the Taiping Sect and the Puppet Qing Dynasty."

"It just so happens that you still lack some people who can make suggestions, so I took the initiative to bring them here without authorization. Please punish me."

How could Li Mingqi punish Liu Youcai if he didn't know his character?

So he smiled and said: "What's wrong with recommending talents for the country?"

After saying that, he took a look at the three people Liu Youcai brought over.

The leader of the three is a middle-aged man with braids and jeans.

His body unconsciously exuded the kind of aura that he had cultivated over a long period of pampering and pampering.

To be more specific, the eyes are on the top of the head, and the head is slightly raised when looking at everyone.

When he saw Li Mingqi looking at him, he didn't look at him at all. He cupped his fist towards Li Mingqi and said:

"My name is Yang Yongyuan. I was elected in the third year of Xianfeng. These two are my classmates."

"We came here to ask why the order was issued to expel those innocent foreigners?"

"What you are doing is simply disregarding the safety of overseas Chinese like us, and you are simply confused!"

I heard this guy named Yang Yongyuan speak rudely.

Liu Erhe was so angry that he pulled out his pistol on the spot, just waiting for the order from Lord Long Live, so that these three guys would know what cruelty means.

Liu Youcai was even more shocked. He really didn't expect that the three people he had led were not only not great talents, but also dared to be rude to Long Live Lord?

He immediately kicked Yang Yongyuan in the calf, causing him to stagger.

Then he swung his fists wildly, dealing a heavy blow to Yang Yongyuan's companions beside him.

Liu Erhe was afraid that something would happen to his father, so he quickly jumped down to stop him, but Liu Youcai couldn't help but cursed.

"You are really blind, how dare you disrespect the Lord Long Live?"

Li Mingqi was not very angry. What kind of bar pets had he not seen in the past life? People like Yang Yongyuan could not be ranked.

"Tell me carefully why I ignored the Chinese people overseas?"

Li Mingqi wanted to hear what this master's advice was.

Yang Yongyuan straightened his clothes and said loudly:

"There are only about 10,000 Chinese people here, but you provoke the Citizen government for no reason. What if you provoke these foreigners and send troops to suppress them?"

"In my opinion, you'd better leave Xiangyong early, prepare gifts and go with me to admit your mistake to the representatives of the foreign government."

After saying that, he deliberately glanced at the surrounding guards, as if he wanted to get recognition from their faces.

Unfortunately, all he saw were faces staring at him fiercely.

How could a guy who shouts slogans such as: 'I am willing to sacrifice everything including my life for His Majesty' and 'Loyalty to the emperor and patriotism is a tradition' before eating every day, how could he possibly agree with him?

Humph, Clay Legs is indeed Clay Legs, I don’t know the deeper meaning.

In the end, don’t we have to rely on scholars like us to guide the other party and make him correct his evil ways?

Raising his head, Yang Yongyuan waited to see Li Mingqi repent and repent after being scolded by him.

Unexpectedly, Li Mingqi just waved his hand, and what he was waiting for was Liu Erhe's No. 42 big foot.

Looking at Yang Yongyuan who was kicked to the ground by Liu Erhe, Li Mingqi was filled with question marks.

I still can't figure out why there are sheepdogs now.

He was not expelling foreigners. He clearly sent people to catch the tax official, but he didn't expect that the guy got the news in advance and ran away.

This so-called "Master of Juren" who jumped out is a scholar who studies in the clouds at first glance.

To put it bluntly, they are like the keyboard warriors of later generations, who start typing on the keyboard crazily when they see something superficial.

They also disbanded Xiangyong and apologized. Without him, in two years the Chinese would be called Chinese workers!

The ton of bones in the Nevada desert in the United States is the future destination of these people.

Not to mention the Chinese Exclusion Act that followed immediately after the railroad was built.

"Let me ask you, did you come here voluntarily or was someone inciting you to come?"

Li Mingqi looked at the subdued 'Three Great Talents' and asked.

Yang Yongyuan wanted to hold his neck and say a few harsh words, but his companion quickly kicked him in the face.

He made a good deal when he came, so he recommended himself to find a way out.

They never imagined that this classmate would be so weird.

"Reply to the king, we were not incited by anyone, we did it voluntarily...no...don't listen to Yang Yongyuan's nonsense."

"We are here to recommend ourselves. He is confused, but we are not confused."

It doesn't matter if they were incited by others. Li Mingqi quietly breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that some Chinese would be incited to cause trouble, and he would definitely be in trouble.

However, what happened to Yang Yongyuan this time also reminded him that the inherent character of the Chinese people makes them choose to endure most of the time when faced with bullying by white people.

Otherwise, when the California government sets a separate tax for the Chinese, the Chinese will not be able to bear it silently.

No, we must find a way to awaken the bloody nature in the Chinese people's bodies.

Since ancient times, China has not relied on forbearance to be passed down. It has relied on fists!

Why are you so timid now?
