America 1881: Legend of the West
Chapter 509 Arson as a signal
Stevenson's whereabouts were revealed by Chen Jianqiu, so he had no choice but to turn around and enter the box.
He very much doubted that Chen Jianqiu did it on purpose.
The captain of the guard and the chief of police both turned to see the ambassador.
Why did the ambassador appear here at this time?
Suspicion appeared on their faces, and they began to speculate on the relationship between the two people.
"Mr. Stevenson, what's the matter?" Chen Jianqiu looked at the ambassador who was a little restless opposite him.
"Nothing special, I just came to see you for tea." Stevenson said duplicitously.
Chen Jianqiu picked up a clean tea cup, poured a full cup of tea, and handed it to Stevenson.
"Mr. Ambassador, these two gentlemen asked me to rescue their queen. What do you think?" Chen Jianqiu held walnuts in one hand and held his chin in the other, staring at Stevenson with interest.
Stevenson just picked up the teacup, but he put it down again because of Chen Jianqiu's words or because it was hot.
This sentence posed a problem for him.
Chen Jianqiu is willing to deal with Kameda Masao, which is the best, and he doesn't even have to say anything; but now he has accepted the invitation of two natives to save the queen, which is a bit problematic.
What happens after you save the queen? To help the Queen regain the throne? Or do you have other ideas?
"Mr. Chen, I am an American diplomat, and you are an excellent American businessman. My personal suggestion is that I can help them, but political matters in Hawaii should still be left to them themselves. "
Stevenson's words were high-sounding and watertight.
You and I are all Americans. You can save the Queen, but you should not get involved in political matters.
After this incident, the queen abdicated, and the royalists could see that they were vulnerable. As long as Kameda Masao and the Japanese were dealt with, things would return to normal.
In the post-upturn Hawaiian politics, no one is an opponent of the Hawaiian People's Alliance.
The two stupid natives couldn't understand the mystery, but Chen Jianqiu understood.
He stared at Stevenson, who was all covered in hair.
"What if my interests are threatened?" Chen Jianqiu said expressionlessly.
"Your interests? Sorry, I may not quite understand what you mean." The ambassador was confused.
He didn't remember what kind of business this big businessman, who had become famous in the western United States, had in Hawaii.
"I own at least 80% of the Chinese sugarcane plantations here." Chen Jianqiu raised his eyebrows.
"When did it happen?" Stevenson was shocked.
"What happened in the past two days." Chen Jianqiu took out a stack of documents from the cabinet behind the tea room and handed them to Stevenson. "But my partners told me that they were suppressed because of their Chinese identity?"
The ambassador glanced at these documents and couldn't help but admire Chen Jianqiu's high efficiency and strong financial resources.
He knew that a tycoon like Chen Jianqiu would not come to Hawaii for no reason.
He originally wanted to explain to Chen Jianqiu that these things could be discussed, as long as Thurston and Duer made some concessions.
Isn't it just a matter of profit distribution? It's the same for everyone, including those from the Hawaiian People's Alliance. Otherwise, whoever has enough to eat will be able to carry out a coup!
But due to the presence of the police chief and guard captain, Stevenson couldn't say anything clearly.
It's hard.
"From the perspective of a bystander, I think the status of the Chinese should be improved and they should be able to participate in political activities." The ambassador and Chen Jianqiu played riddles and expressed their opinions as clearly as possible. manner.
Chen Jianqiu still said nothing.
"Mr. Chen, you know that neither the Queen nor we have any ill will towards the Chinese here and respect them very much. We are friends." The police chief knew that he could not promise anything, but he wanted as much as possible. Convince Chen Jianqiu to act quickly.
At this moment, a Chinese soldier wearing black clothes walked in:
"Report to Mr. Chen! The Hawaiian People's Alliance launched another attack on the Japanese stronghold, but it was unsuccessful. The casualties on both sides were heavy."
Stevenson had a headache.
It seemed that the two unlucky guys, Thurston and Duer, were not convinced and charged again.
If Chen Jianqiu doesn't take action, the Japanese may counterattack, and the performance of these two guys may end here.
The militiamen also went back to their homes to find their own mothers.
"You go back and wait for the news." Chen Jianqiu suddenly said to the other three people in the room.
Then, the Chinese soldier made a "please" gesture and sent the reluctant three people out of the teahouse.
"Call Sean and the others over here." Chen Jianqiu ordered.
After a while, Li Sifu, Sean, Xu Ajiu and others gathered in the private room of the tea room.
"Tonight's action, Li Sifu will take the lead with the Longxiang group, and you will take the remaining main force Xu Ajiu and follow." Chen Jianqiu began to arrange the tasks.
"I want two people to die and one person to live." He gestured with his fingers, "Thurston and Kameda Masao must die, and the Queen must live."
Li Sifu and Xu Ajiu understood that they were responsible for doing the killing, but who was going to do the saving?
This was really a chaotic fight. It was night and the light was extremely poor. Who could guarantee the safety of the Queen and her two daughters?
In this box, everyone suddenly discovered that there was only one person left without a mission.
"What are you all looking at me for?" Sean once again had an ominous premonition after the last time he disguised himself as a woman.
But this time, Li Sifu didn't dare to grin anymore.
"Sean, I have a chance for you to be a hero and save the beauty. Do you want it?" Chen Jianqiu stood up and walked to Sean's side.
"No, I've seen that wooden city wall. It's seven or eight meters high. You don't think I have the ability to climb up, do you?" Sean said hurriedly.
"There is a gap." Chen Jianqiu put his hand on his shoulder and said with a smile.
"But the queen is too old and doesn't suit my taste!" Sean gave the practical reason.
"She has two daughters." Chen Jianqiu added again, "You are not young anymore. You should seize this opportunity. It would be good to be the son-in-law of the royal family."
He said to Sean earnestly: "In our place, this is called the Prince Consort, and he is considered a first-class noble in this world. Don't worry, as long as you are willing to go, I will find a way to get it done for you."
It seemed that the temptation of the nobles was greater, and Sean's mind was shaken.
Although he himself didn't know who his parents were, he still dreamed of honoring his ancestors.
The queen looks a bit dark, which is good, and her daughter is probably dark too, but can she be darker than herself?
Although judging from the photos, the current Queen's appearance is indeed a bit disappointing to the audience, but she should have had a different flavor when she was young.
After Sean thought about it for a while, he felt that this task was worthwhile.
"Okay, boss, I've been with you for so long, so I don't need to say anything more. Just watch me tonight." He agreed.
"Remember, you just need to mark the locations of Kameda Masao and Thurston, and hand them over to Li Sifu! In addition, after the Queen is rescued, I will send someone to pick you up outside and transport the Queen out safely first."
"We will set fire as a warning!"
