[Titanic] Golden House

Chapter 40

The sun hits the sea, a piece of gold.Song Xinyu carried two boxes and got off the boat step by step with the crowd.A box of clothes, a box of books and a telegraph wrapped in it.

Holding the letter of recommendation from Mr. Liu, Song Xinyu found the address mentioned in the letter by speaking fluent English and Chinese and his broken Fusang language.After some twists and turns, I finally got a room of my own.

Song Xinyu is learning Fusang language, and he can still speak it in daily conversations and read with a book.So I refused the company of my future colleagues, and went shopping for daily necessities alone.

Unexpectedly, after going like this, he fell into the wolf's den and never crawled out in his life.However, it is also sweet as sweet as honey.

On the clean, slightly sloping ancient stone path, Song Xinyu walked out with a bag of daily necessities just bought from the shop.Then he was bumped and crooked.

The one who was hit just swayed a bit and then stood still.But the one who bumped into people was lying on the ground.

Song Xinyu frowned and looked at the little man who fell on the ground, thinking about what Rose had said about Pengci in his heart.I felt a little uncomfortable for a moment.

The little man raised his head. Song Xinyu put one hand in his trouser pocket and held the package in the other. He just stood there quietly, looking down at him slightly.

America, Golden Dragon Gate

"I still have a business to do with Master Li, don't you know?" When it was time to leave, Rose decided to do what she had been struggling with.For better or worse, it's just this one time.

Hearing what Rose said, Master Li narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked, "What business?" Every move of this girl made him a little confused.

"Excuse me, are you usually in charge of murder and arson business?"

"...Miss Bukett, please be careful! Our Jinlongmen is a legal gang." These things are generally only conceivable and unspeakable.It's always been an off-the-table transaction, and it really makes Master Li very speechless.

Foreigners are so unreserved.

Rose looked at the serious Mr. Li and was a little speechless. Who didn't know who, what he said seemed to be true.Don't do it if you have the ability.

"Let's make a long story short. I don't have any other intentions. I will pay for clothing and weapon purchases. For any business that Jinlongmen receives that may damage the image of the Chinese people, please use the clothes and weapons I provide. .”

Master Li had some doubts, raised his head and asked Rose: "What kind of clothes and weapons?"

"Clothes and weapons often worn by Fusang people."

"...", the incomprehension in Master Li's eyes increased instead of diminishing. This is a naked frame-up, right?right.

"Why?" It takes a lot of enmity with Fusang people to do such insane things.

Whoops, this is too insane, there is no lower limit, okay.

Rose thought for a while, and said bluntly: "Why should Chinese people be discriminated against, while Fusang people are jumping up and down to leave Asia and enter Europe. They are all Asians, Chinese people are not good, and Fusang people should not think about it." .”

Master Li: "..." Miss, did you make a mistake? This is the business of the Huaxia people themselves.Also, why do you speak so much like a Chinese.

Rose saw that Mr. Li didn't say anything, but just looked her up and down.Rose raised her wrist and looked at her watch. The hour hand was almost at four o'clock.No wonder she felt a little hungry.

I looked around, okay, I've been here for so long, and I don't even have a cup of tea.No wonder she was thirsty and hungry.Glancing at Master Li sadly, Rose made up her mind not to do business with Jinlongmen again next time.The attitude towards customers in this way is too much.

It's a pity that the weather is not good, Rose's decision was overturned by herself within three to five days.

"How does Mr. Li think? Do you want to do this business?" If you don't do it, she will give up.This kind of immoral thing has been done too much, and Rose herself feels that she can't bear it.

I think she was also a kind and good young man back then, and whenever there was a big event, she would definitely donate money and things.Being here now, doing these things is really a test of her level of ability.

Rose sometimes felt so terribly hypocritical.While feeling that the people of Fusang are also innocent, they are doing the opposite.Is this the highest state of hypocrisy?

Master Li gritted his teeth, and said in a hateful voice: "...do it", he had long wanted to expand his business, but he was afraid of ruining the foundation and reputation that Golden Dragon Gate had managed to accumulate in the United States.You know, these years, their gang has not had an easy life, and they are afraid that someone will find something wrong and be forcibly disbanded.

Although this idea is a bit shameless, if people do not do what they want, they will be destroyed by heaven and earth.They are all Asians. Why can the Fusang people stay out of the matter? In the United States, the Chinese people are already struggling.That being the case, let's sink together.

Rose was in a good mood after taking a handful of fusang, and she sat on the ground and paid back the money that Master Li asked for.Although she is not short of that few dollars, she still enjoys the fun of bargaining.

She was in a great mood when she drove away. "Jenny, starting this month, your wages will all go up by 20 pounds. You and Carter will get 30 pounds."

She remembered that the most common first-class ticket on the Titanic was only sold for 30 pounds.So the salary increase this time is not small.

"Oh, Miss Rose, you are so generous." Carter said happily while driving.

Jenny, who was sitting next to Rose, also said excitedly: "Thank you, Miss Rose. I will work hard."

This job is really easy and decent.Now the salary has been raised.Jenny is very satisfied with this job.She decided to work hard and never give Miss Rose the chance to replace her.

Hearing what Jenny said, Carter also said quickly: "Yes, yes. Miss Rose. I will work hard."

"Well, I believe in you. I believe that the salary I pay is worthy of your work results. Later, Jenny will tell the other three people the news. Let them be happy too."

In fact, the reason why Rose gave Carter and Jenny more wages was not just because they worked beside her.It was because the two of Jenny didn't have a travel allowance.

The other three people, on business trips in China, have another job and another salary.However, Jenny and the two of them did not have these by her side.Although she occasionally sends Jenny and Carter some jewelry that she redeems from the system.But these jewels are not cash after all, and when they are sold, the price will always be lowered.

Rose's visit to San Francisco this time was completely completed.In the next few days, Rose and the others invited locals to take a short trip in San Francisco.

While traveling, Rose discovers something that makes her feel sad.

She saw many Chinese people, poor and miserable.Doing the dirtiest and heaviest work, but the treatment is not as good as that of the easy-working black people.

What is black?That's a slave.Originally, it was difficult for Chinese people to receive fair treatment in other places.Over the years, because of the Chinese Exclusion Act, the treatment is not even half as good as that of black slaves.

"Why don't you go back to the country? China is now the Republic of China. The country and the people are all free individuals." Rose asked the old man of Huaxia who was full of wind and frost.

The Huaxia old man was doing heavy work at this time, but the supervisor beside him still felt dissatisfied.If Rose's bodyguards hadn't stopped him, maybe the bloody whip would have come off.

The old man trembled and said: "...I can't go back. I have earned money all my life. The old man and his family can't afford the boat ticket to go back to China." The wages are low, and everything costs money.There are so many people in the family, it's impossible to leave as soon as you say.

The tears in Rose's eyes almost burst out, and she looked up at the sky, holding back herself.After a while, he asked, "How many people like you are there?"

A ticket has blocked how many ways to go home.

"...too much, too much."

Rose nodded, turned and left.

"Carter, help me contact the boss of Jinlongmen. Just say that I have something important to talk to him about."

Carter's Chinese language should be understood or not.So he didn't know anything about what the employer and the old man Huaxia said.However, he listened clearly to the employer's instructions to him.

"I see, Miss Rose. Then I will contact you now. Do you want to continue playing?"

Rose didn't have the mood to have fun, so she just said sullenly: "I won't play anymore, let's go back together."

Carter nodded, summoned the bodyguards who were not far or near, and asked them to drive over.He glanced at Tracy himself and smiled courteously.But after drawing a blank stare from Tracy, she also lowered her head and protected her employer to wait for the car.

Why is this chick so hard to please?

Rose, who was depressed, didn't see this scene, but Jenny, who had been there, saw it clearly.

He said happily in his heart: yes, I tell you to pick it lightly.

Carter has a slight sneer in his character, and when he sees Tracy, he always makes fun of her.It's all right now, when he was serious about pursuing someone, he was stunned because of course he had committed an old problem.

Tracy is a shy girl, so Carter always likes to tease the employer's personal maid.Seeing the little girl blushing in embarrassment, she was very happy.

I didn't expect to come and go again and again, so I fell in love.But the little girl also made him amused and his temper gradually increased, and now he will be angry when he sees him, which can be said to be self-inflicted.

Alas, even the toughest employer in their family has accepted Mr. Hockley's marriage proposal. When will he bring Pepper back?

On the following day, Rose once again came to the Golden Dragon Gate headquarters in San Francisco.

Looking at the old smoking gun, Mr. Li, he said directly: "I will pay a sum of money to charter a cruise ship from the United States to Huaxia. I will send everyone who wants to go back to China for free. I hope you will organize this thing."

With a sudden kick, this Jinlongmen master Li stood up from the couch.He opened his eyes wide in disbelief and looked at Rose.

"Miss Bucket, what did you just say? Do you know what you just said?"

Rose nodded seriously, and replied: "I know what I'm talking about. I said that I would charter a boat and send those Chinese people who couldn't afford the boat tickets back home."

"Why did you do this?" Master Li asked her in a complicated mood.Both eyes stared at Rose seriously.

Look at those eyes, which have become red from Rose's words.His hands were shaking, and he didn't even realize that the shredded tobacco in the pipe had fallen to the ground.

"Why, pity, sympathy, everything." Rose choked up, she really didn't know that Chinese people in this era would live such a miserable and humble life.

If she hadn't gotten in touch with that old man, maybe she would never truly feel the humiliation that the people of the country suffered because of national strength.

"Do you know how much it costs? Do you know the reason why those Chinese people can't leave even if they can afford the boat ticket?"

Unconsciously, Master Li used the word 'you'.Rose's decision made Master Li unconsciously respect her.Although it was surprisingly stupid, such behavior ultimately benefited the Chinese people.

"The problem that money can solve is not a problem for me. One ship is not enough, just two, two is not enough, just three or four. I am willing to spend money, you Jinlongmen don't give up one and want to go home people." Rose paused for a moment, then asked again: "By the way, what you said just now is that you can't leave even if you have money?"

Hearing Rose's question, Master Li slowly turned his face to the window beside him, and said sadly: "Chinese people are the cheapest labor force in American society."

With just one sentence, Rose understood Master Li's unfinished words.Because it is the cheapest, and you can beat, scold and exploit at will.How could the powerful figures in the upper class of the United States let these people go?

Even if you want to leave, it is just to allow individual to leave, and large-scale departure will definitely be prevented. In extraordinary times, extraordinary means can also be used to keep this batch of labor.Once the U.S. government used extraordinary means to come out, the fate of this group of people was indescribable with blood and tears.

They have etiquette to blacks and kindness to civilians, but they don't have mercy to yellow people.This is the sorrow of the yellow race in this era, and also the sorrow of tens of thousands of Chinese people.

Who would have thought that the majestic China, the magnificent Shangbang, would be bullied ever since.Emperor Qin Shihuang, who built the Great Wall, did not expect that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who was famous throughout the ages, did not expect that Emperor Kangxi, who is known as the first emperor through the ages, did not expect that unfilial children and grandchildren would ruin the foundation left by their ancestors.Let future generations, even rely on others, have to be careful and ask for everything.

"I will pay and then contact the cruise ship. Your Golden Dragon Gate is responsible for counting all the people who want to leave. Then quietly gather them at the pier. Don't forget to leak a little bit of information, so as not to lose everything. Can your Golden Dragon Gate do it?"

Master Li's mood had calmed down at this time, and he said proudly: "If you can, we can."

So far, another migration after the eastward migration has been settled on this most ordinary day of summer.

Countless people, countless Chinese people finally set foot on the way home after many years of absence.The arrival of this group of Chinese people has brought new conceptual reforms to China.Since their return to China, the returnees working at the grassroots level in all walks of life have integrated into the construction of New China at the fastest speed.
