Chapter 537: The Americas has a Heavenly King City! (Please vote, please book)
On the morning of October 11, 1855, the "Gold Digger" Cafe in San Francisco.
A headline of the California Star was soaked with coffee stains, "War! The Tsar's army is approaching the United States!" It is particularly eye-catching. Wu Chongyao's jade ring hit the table, shaking another copy of the Californian next to him.
》 trembled slightly - Under the bold title of "North America's Heavenly King City", the woodcut prints are printed with an evil dragon hitting the top of the polar bear's head with a cross.
"What does Mr. Lincoln think? Will the Federation interfere with the problems caused by the Chinese entering California? "Natalia's blue eyes swept through the newspaper and then threw herself at the tall and thin who arrived in San Francisco with her on the same boat as her.
The American lawyer - this man's name is Abraham Lincoln! He is Lincoln, who is destined to be president, but he is not the president yet, not even a member of the congressman. He previously resigned from his position as a state congressman in order to run for the federal senator in Illinois
, but failed to be elected as he wished, so he had to pick up his lawyer's old career.
Not long after his law firm reopened, "God" sent him a big client, Wu Chongyao, a diplomat from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. The Wu family's Jardines Store had already established a business in the United States.
In the past two years, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has "spreaded coins" in European and American countries, bought machinery and equipment, and hired technicians and engineers. Naturally, someone needs to provide legal services.
So Wu Chongyao hired a lawyer Lincoln in the name of Jardine Mahjong, first helped him complete several major purchases on the East Coast of the United States, and then took Lincoln to California, saying that he wanted to buy some real estate in California, and wanted to hire Lincoln.
Helping to draw up a contract - this is a big deal! Lincoln certainly had no reason not to follow him.
The Russian female grandfather Natalia also followed Wu Chongyao all the way, from the east coast to the west coast. Of course, Lincoln didn't know that this Polish woman who was good in temperament and appearance was a female grandfather-Na
Talia did not show her identity everywhere, otherwise Wu Chongyao would not dare to take her to China. Now the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is holding high the banner of "anti-Russia"!
What Natalia and Wu Chongyao did not expect was that they actually encountered the "Crimean War" on the west coast of the United States - a war originating in Eastern Europe, Southern Europe and the Near East actually hit the doorstep of the United States.
.
What is even more surprising is that the army used by the British to defend their Hudson Bay Company colony was actually the Taiping Army! In order to allow the Taiping Army and the True Dealers on the West Coast of North America to fight against the British Empire with all their hearts, Hader
The Sun Bay Company actually donated a piece of land located on the south bank of Brené Bay to the North American Diocese of True Pai!
The believers of the True Job Sect established a settlement on this not-so-large land and named it "Chenwang City"!
After the news reached California, the local old white man in the United States was in a mess!
In the eyes of white people who do not believe in the True Covenant faction in California, it is not a good thing whether it is the Russians approaching or the True Covenant believers in North America establish settlements in the Bay of Brene. After all, they are unwilling to learn Russian, and they are also not willing to learn Russian.
Hate the Chinese who are constantly coming - now tens of thousands of Chinese (including some Japanese and Koreans) enter North America every month. Before this round of immigration, the total population of California was only three.
120,000 to 30,000. If the Chinese flow in at this rate, in a few years, the Chinese will become the majority in California.
What makes American old white men in California even more wary is that almost all Chinese people who are coming here have joined the real contract party! No matter whether they are going to get eggs or marry their wives, they are always here every week
Everyone has to go to the Zhenyou Sect church that enshrines the statue of Hong Tianwang. There are also many Irish paupers who came to hunt for gold from the East Coast to join the Zhenyou Sect for eggs, cherry blossom girls and cheaper rice, noodles and vegetables.
However, in Wu Chongyao's view, the old white man in California is no longer able to expel the Zhenyi Sect, and he can't even stop the Chinese immigrants coming like a tide - because the Zhenyi Sect already has the port of Tianwang City.
Even if the ports in San Francisco are closed to Chinese immigrants, Chinese can still get ashore from Tianwang City. The Hudson Bay Company in the UK and the borders of the Oregon region in the United States are not defenseless - they are not defenseless against Chinese and Russians!
Therefore, the problem of Chinese or real-time appointments in California is no longer something that the state can solve, and the federal government must come forward.
As for whether the Federation will intervene, it will be necessary to ask Lincoln.
Therefore, today, taking advantage of Wu Chongyao's visit to the cathedral of the True Talk in San Francisco to meet Hong Renzheng, Natalia asked Lincoln out for coffee and asked him about the possible federal reaction.
Lincoln gently put down his coffee and stared at the beautiful "Polish woman" with brown eyes for a while: "Currently, politicians on the East Coast only have slavery and abolition. California has been a free state since 1850.
In the eyes of slave-retaining politicians, if expelling Chinese is equivalent to slapping slaves in California, they will support it. Otherwise, they will only wait and see that California is trapped in internal friction due to Chinese issues.
In the eyes of abolitionist politicians, California has the existence of Chinese and True Dealers, which can consolidate its status as a free state. Until the abolition of slavery is resolved, they will not actively intensify the conflict in California.
However, the Russian invasion of British Hudson Bay Company may arouse some people's interest."
"Oh?" Natalia's blue eyes lit up, "Why?"
Lincoln's slender and dry fingers gently tapped the words "Russian troops invaded the Ferrazier River Basin" in the newspaper: "Some Americans also have a strong interest in that land. In the eyes of many American politicians and soldiers.
Canada and the United States were born in the war of independence decades ago. The United States and Canada should have been the same country, and the territory of the Hudson Bay Company should be part of Canada! If the war between Russia and Britain, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom
If it affects the United States, then these people are happy to let the United States intervene in the war in some form and thus seize some land that should belong to the United States."
"So." Natalia's finger gently touched Lincoln's slender and dry fingers, "Who do you think America will stand on if it joins the war?"
"British!" Lincoln said firmly, and then he changed his mind and lowered his voice, "But if the United States does not join the war, then the United States will definitely pro-Russia!" He paused and suddenly asked again: "Natalia
,Who do you and your fiancé (son of the Orlov Cavalry General) support? Britain, Russia, or the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom?"
Natalia shrugged and smiled, "Of course we support the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. My fiancé gets the salary of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom."
Peter, the son of the Orlov cavalry, caught up with Natalia in New York, and then took Natalia to the west coast with Wu Chongyao in the name of Polish mercenaries. He protected him early this morning.
Wu Chongyao went to the True Journey Cathedral in San Francisco.
The Archbishop of North American Diocese, Hong Renzheng, stood between two rows of exquisitely carved dragon pillars, looked at the plaque "Praying America" ​​written by the King of Heaven, sighed softly, and gave the gilded statue of Hong Xiuquan on the altar in front of the gilded statue of Hong Xiuquan.
The bronze incense burner has three pillars of incense.
The archbishop, wearing a yellow robe, wrapped in yellow turbans, and hanging a seven-star sword on his waist, turned around, looking at Wu Chongyao, wearing a dress and a top hat, hanging his pipe and playing with one
The enamel tobacco box walked towards him and was a little stunned: "You are."
Wu Chongyao clasped his fists: "I am Yihe Xing Wu Chongyao, how dare you ask which incense you burn and which god you worship?"
"So it's Manager Wu!" Hong Renzheng turned around and bent his fingers to hit the cast iron lecture platform. Several lecturers and lecturers in the church bowed to Archbishop Hong, then left one after another, and closed two pieces.
Red lacquer door.
"I'm here to Hong Renzheng!" Hong Renzheng also took out an enamel tobacco box and placed it on the lecture stage. "What burns the Hong family's incense, and what worships the Hong family's god!"
Wu Chongyao took a few steps forward, took off his hat, and bowed three times to the statue of the Heavenly King: "I wonder if the Heavenly King is good? Have the Qing Demon ever perished?"
Hong Renzheng said lightly: "The Qing demon has died."
"Oh? Is that right?" Wu Chongyao was happy, but saw Hong Renzheng's eyes with tears in his eyes, "This is."
"He, the king of heaven, he escorted Xianfeng to heaven together!" Hong Renzheng said word by word.
"Ascending to heaven?" Wu Chongyao was shocked, "Ascending to heaven means"
"It's just ride a hot air balloon and keep rising until you enter heaven!" Hong Renzheng said softly.
"This" Wu Chongyao was confused, but he didn't dare to ask again, so he had to change the topic, "Article, Wu brought a person in Europe this time, which may be helpful to the king's preaching of the great cause of North America."
"I want someone?" Hong Renzheng asked, "Who is it?"
"It is Natalia, the female eldest daughter of Tsarist Russia. She is the special envoy of Tsar Alexander. She follows me to China to meet the King of Wu."
Before Wu Chongyao finished speaking, Hong Renzheng stared at him and asked, "Where is she? Did you come to the cathedral?"
