New Ming Empire mixed in America

Chapter 82 Sealed Lightning

Although there were a few twists and turns, Cui Jianguo successfully passed the translation and delivered a very successful speech to everyone present.

Cui Jianguo, who once founded the country with Li Mingqi's father and later became his right-hand man. To be honest, he is not really a good person.

Compared with his experience, these so-called white gangsters, in his eyes, did not do as many bad things as the slaves of wealthy families.

The bruised and swollen Andre was paralyzed in the corner, and next to him was the equally miserable Barton.

Looking at the Eastern man who used clumsy methods to deceive his subordinates, Andre couldn't help but sigh.

There is quite a desolate feeling that everyone is drunk and I am alone.

"Is your companion a former missionary? Why is he so... um... so skilled at instigating those people?"

Hearing Andre's words, Barton shrugged and replied: "This is also the first time I know that he can speak so well."

Andre curled his lips in obvious disbelief and said, "You are companions who have been together for several months. This is what the Oriental man said himself."

"But the topics we talked about at that time were limited to medical aspects."

Recalling the time when he almost performed a craniotomy on Cui Jianguo, Barton still feels sad.

"Oh God, he also understands medicine!?" Andre's tone at this time had to be highlighted with two punctuation marks.

Although Andre was not too fond of missionaries, he was full of respect for doctors because becoming a doctor was his dream.

Soon, Barton saw Andre, who had just been beaten up by Cui Jianguo, squeezed into the crowd listening to the speech, and began to study the other party's views seriously.

Now, everyone is drunk and my sober buff has been transferred to him.

Seeing Andre's reaction, Barton opened his mouth and swallowed back the truth that "when we discussed, he would only nod or shake his head."

During this special period, he still had to try his best to cooperate with Cui Jianguo to carry out this scene.

They were taken to the wilderness by these gangsters from the lieutenant governor's house, and then brought back to San Francisco from the wilderness.

During this period, he had a dream-like experience. First, the deputy governor's family was exchanged for more than a dozen Mounted Police appointment letters and uniforms.

Later, after Andre and others finally figured out where Los Angeles was, Barton and Cui Jianguo were forced to participate in these people's revenge actions.

Later, the company was closed down, people were wanted, and they were short of food and clothing. They only survived through the help of Cui Jianguo's confidante.

But none of this is as fantastic as what happens next, when these gang members rebel because they resent Andre for bringing them to this point.

Cui Jianguo rose like a comet, first convincing the thugs with words, and then beating Andre to appease them.

Finally, relying on the convenience of knowing everyone's food source, nearly a hundred people in this slum area were actually encouraged to set up some sort of Heavenly Mutual Aid Association.

This organization with a very unreliable name actually gained the recognition of most poor people under Barton's eyes.

They even elected Cui Jianguo, a yellow-skinned Oriental, to be the leader of the organization, and successfully established a foothold in the slums.

What he didn't know was that Cui Jianguo was also feeling numb now.

In the beginning, he just wanted to trick those who kidnapped him into letting him go. Who knew it would lead to the current consequences?

But he has been deceived. If he quits now, the poor people who have been deceived will probably pounce on him and tear him to pieces.

So now he can only bite the bullet and continue.

"Some of you may question the existence of the kingdom of heaven. Today, I am here to let you see with your own eyes the power of the kingdom of heaven."

As he spoke, he took out a glass ball with a base from the box next to him and placed it on the table.

Then he looked at the audience, pointed at Andre and said: "Now, please invite Mr. Andre to come on stage to cooperate."

Andre was very confused when his name was called. He really couldn't guess what this Oriental man wanted to do.

So under the guidance of the translator, he walked up to the stage and began to examine the glass ball. After discovering that it was just an ordinary glass product, he walked back to the stage again.

Then one after another people were invited to the stage to examine the glass ball, and no one could figure out what Cui Jianguo was trying to do.

But what happened next shocked everyone.

After Cui Jianguo fiddled with it for a few times, the glass ball suddenly glowed purple, and then tiny lightning bolts continued to swim in the glass ball.

"Omag!" Everyone, including Andre, exclaimed.

Among them, Andre made the loudest voice, because he knew that he could not collude with the other party, so now he was shocked more than everyone combined.

But as Cui Jianguo's hands touched the glass ball, these people's exclamations became louder.

Because they found that as Cui Jianguo moved his hands, the small lightning in the glass ball seemed to have spirituality and moved with his hands.

"These are the lightnings controlled by the gods, and now they are sealed in this ordinary glass ball by the kingdom of heaven. Gentlemen, this is the power of the kingdom of heaven!"

The translator's voice was trembling because he had now become a fanatical believer in heaven.

Everyone present, including Andre, was the same and began to believe Cui Jianguo's rhetoric.

The act of controlling the 'lightning' lasted less than a minute before Cui Jianguo turned off the switch of the electrostatic ball.

It's not that he doesn't want to show off for a while, but there are only a few batteries, and now that he has lost contact with Los Angeles, there is no way to replenish them after they are used up.

This static ball was a gift from Li Mingqi along with Li Mingqi's imperial edict when he was deprived of his titles of regent and general. It comes in handy now.

Judging from the reactions at the scene, Cui Jianguo felt that not only could he save his life in San Francisco, but he might also be able to save a considerable fortune for his future children.

Just when Cui Jianguo was hiding in the slums of San Francisco and practicing feudal superstition, there was also a little riot in Yingtian Mansion.

That is, the new immigrants who arrived in the Xinming Empire on ships, some of them clamored to leave Yingtian Mansion to go gold mining.

When Li Mingqi and Liu Erhe arrived at the resettlement area, they saw more than thirty strong men confronting the Jin Yiwei.

Among these people, the leading strong man was bare-chested, and the two long scars on his chest snaked down to his waist like centipedes.

"Why don't you let the brothers leave? We went to sea to find gold, not to join some bullshit Xinming Empire."

Before he even got close, Li Mingqi heard the shouts of the leading man. He frowned and quickened his pace.

Seeing Li Mingqi surrounded by a group of people, the leading man seemed to have found the rightful owner. He ignored the royal guards and shouted to Li Mingqi:

"We made an agreement when we boarded the ship. We just came with the ship to dig for gold in San Francisco. What's going on now that you are holding our brothers and not letting them leave?"
