Lincoln was silent for a moment and slowly sat down beside Zhu Jinglun.
"Is there anything I can do for you?"
He asked.
Zhu Jinglun motioned Wu Chongyao to go out, and Lincoln gave a hand to let his own people go out.
At this time, Zhang Rou was still sleeping on Zhu Jinglun’s bed.
Zhu Jinglun said at this time, "Do you know to sell piglets?"
Lincoln thought for a moment and nodded his head. He knew what Zhu Jinglun was going to say. Selling piglets was neither a good word nor humane, and American businessmen were the main force in this line.
Zhu Jinglun continued, "You liberated slaves in the United States, and I admire the world for banning the slave trade. But is it different from the slave trade to sell Chinese pigs? According to our current investigation, tens of thousands of China people have been sold to the United States. They are working in gold mines and farms in the western United States. Blacks are unwilling to do hard work and suffer from all kinds of inhuman treatment. No one can say that one or two out of ten people will be blessed to return home alive. "
Lincoln frowned. "You’re exaggerating."
He doesn’t believe it or admit it, because it will be the biggest stain on America.
But Zhu Jinglun must say that this is one of the most important purposes of his visit to the United States.
"Is it an exaggeration that the US government can do its own investigation? I admit that there are many shameful things, such as a large number of China people participating in the process of selling piglets, and our country is the hardest hit area for selling piglets. Our government is determined to crack down on this inhuman trade, but our own strength is limited. We need the cooperation and support of the US government."
Lincoln thought about it and felt that this trade was really a shame. "What do you need us to do?"
Zhu Jinglun said, "There is not much need for the United States to do, but we need moral support more. In the process of abolishing slavery, the British government made a lot of slaves. They sent warships to crack down on this trade, and at the same time, they called for the cessation of this trade for a long time. Perhaps it is unrealistic for the United States to send warships to crack down on this trade in the world, but can the United States government come out and appeal to the international community to awaken the conscience of all countries in the world, and this will also greatly safeguard the image of the United States? Can you imagine what the international image of the United States will be like after 50 years and 100 years if this trade
There is a phenomenon that since the independence of the United States, the most leaders generally have some gentlemen’s morality. The later American leaders become less moral, the more they look like a simple politician. The most mature political development is also the lowest moral level of politicians, while Lincoln is in a state of decomposition. He belongs to the last batch of classical politicians in the United States and is probably the last batch of politicians who are recognized as moral.
If a person has morality, then he will be proud. It is difficult for a truly shameless person to deal with a proud person. There is always a bottom line. People in China say that you can bully others because you have a bottom line.
Lincoln nodded his head. He felt that the moral appeal would not harm the national interests of the United States, but it was also a good opportunity to protect the American moral sense, just as the British government cracked down on the slave trade in the past, in fact, Britain itself made a fortune on this bloody trade.
Zhu Jinglun went on to say, "China does not exclude the export of labor. On the contrary, we believe that it is of great benefit to our country with a surplus of labor force to ensure the export of labor force by law, and it is also beneficial to a country with a shortage of labor force like the United States. What we need to worry about is to protect the minimum dignity of human beings in this export."
Lincoln said, "Do you have any good ideas?"
Through Zhu Jinglun’s words, Lincoln felt that Zhu Jinglun was also a moral person.
Zhu Jinglun said, "China will set up a labor export agency to regulate the export of labor force, which may lead to a high labor force, so some people will illegally smuggle it. We hope that the United States can help combat this smuggling, which requires the joint efforts of the diplomatic departments of our two countries."
Lincoln said, "I personally support this point, but it needs to be evaluated by Chinese professionals. If it does not harm our interests, I think our government should cooperate with your country."
Zhu Jinglun nodded. "Thank you very much. By the way, I have one last request. Could you please send the fastest ship to send me back to China?"
Zhu Jinglun doesn’t know how much influence the news of his assassination will have after returning to China.
Section three hundred and seventy-one Labor Export Immigration Company
Zhu Jinglun suggested that Lincoln should consider saying goodbye to the latter two. Zhu Jinglun called Wu Chongyao in at this time.
"Lord Wu, I have to leave in three days. You stay here."
"I obey."
There is a very important thing for Wu Chongyao to stay in the United States.
I want you to set up a company here.
"the company? A company like the East India Company? "
The Wu family has dealt with the East India Company for a generation, and his first reaction when he arrived at the company was the East India Company.
Zhu Jinglun nodded. "But it may be much bigger than the East India Company."
Wu Chongyao still doesn’t know what Zhu Jinglun is going to do. "Please ask the emperor for instructions."
Zhu Jinglun said, "We have to set up a company, but the business is not a general business, but a coolie. Trade can’t be stopped because everyone has needs. We have too many people and the land is almost unable to support them. The income is to find a way for the people to live. Americans are very short of labor. They have too much land and resources. It is very reliable to block them, and it is better to smuggle them by ourselves."
Wu Chongyao’s face is a little black. The emperor really likes to make money. When they are together, they often talk about business. But there must be a bottom line when they love to make money. Selling coolies is all dirty things. Selling opium is more authentic than selling people.
In ancient China, one of the most hated businesses was that the human trafficker was caught in the abduction and killed directly by the government. The government would never pursue the abduction in the Dream of Red Mansions and was beaten to death by Xue Pan and then exiled by Jia Yucun for 3,000 miles. The legal treatment of human trafficker is much more cruel than that in modern times.
Zhu Jinglun didn’t notice Wu Chongyao’s face. He went on to say, "If we recruit workers to work in the United States ourselves, we must protect their interests. First of all, we need to improve our articles of association, sign agreements with Americans in the name of the company, and finally settle accounts through our company, so that ordinary people can’t talk to them directly. If they have no words, they will definitely suffer if they negotiate with capitalists in their own name. We must ask many lawyers not to be afraid to sue Americans."
Wuchongyao looks better, and at the same time, he is glad that he didn’t directly deny that he misunderstood the emperor just now.
Wu Chongyao was interested at this time. Listen carefully. "It is very important for you to find ways to improve the strength and righteousness of this constitution. You can ask your American friends to help you recruit someone. Don’t be afraid to spend money. Our biggest goal is to let our people have work and food. Therefore, this is the first company. The biggest thing is to find jobs for workers. I have a suggestion. Americans have liberated southern slaves, but the southern manor still needs people to grow cotton. It is a good business."
"The first step for the company to expand should be the south. When the time comes, you should send people to the south to advertise and tell those manor owners that we can have enough labor to afford wages. The wage level can be even lower according to the American labor level. I think we should still make a profit."
"At least $1. In the American army, white people pay $13. Black people pay $1."
Wu Chongyao played a special role when he heard this. He once lamented the salary of Americans, not to mention that China people lamented the high salary of the United States, otherwise there would not be so many people who went to the United States to seek their dreams. The American dream is not blown out. It is a real dream of making money.
Zhu Jinglun nodded. "One dollar a month, the cotton picking season can reach two months. If we can accurately send people to pick and pick cotton fields from the southernmost part of the United States to the north at the latest, workers can earn at least two months’ wages and two dollars. One dollar is about seven taels of silver, which is 14 taels of silver, which is more than what they earn in Guangdong in a year. If they plant in Guangdong, they should be able to work for three months, so that each worker can earn two taels of silver."
Zhu Jinglun’s reference is Xinjiang cotton harvest season. Xinjiang cotton has been picking from the end of the month to the beginning of November. In fact, the cotton planting span in the United States is larger, and this harvest season can also lengthen many southern cotton, so the labor force can cross the future generations from south to north. That’s what the China harvester team does. It’s called catching up.
"There are 40,000 black people in the south of the United States who can replace them if they don’t want to work, and there is still a lot of uncultivated land in the United States. If the labor force is enough, they will cultivate more wasteland for us. It is no problem for us to send 10,000 people to work every year. This is that the livelihood of one million people is a great cause, but it will go down in history."
Zhu Jinglun fooled Wu Chongyao, and his face turned red. What a great achievement it is to be able to give 10 thousand a living.
Zhu Jinglun thinks more. He mainly refers to Japan and Korea Industrial History Day. Forget about accumulating funds for industrialization and sending millions of women to the world to earn money. In fact, this is also the case in South Korea. In 1996, when the female president of South Korea was a poisonous vegetable, South Korea sent a large number of workers to oil tyrants in the Middle East, earning tens of billions of dollars in foreign exchange every year, which is equivalent to 40% of foreign exchange earned by South Korea’s exports.
Black artificial discipline is obviously inferior to China people, even in the 21st century. When it comes to hard work, people in East Asia can bear hardships the most. Once a large number of China people flood into the south of the United States, cotton production in the south after the war has liberated a large number of black people to do. They will definitely move to the north. Industrial capitalists in the north do not discriminate against black people. Their slogan is that it is not necessary for southerners to despise history. Until Ford Motor Company, few industrialists have hired black people as workers for a long time.
By then, a large number of black people will move to the north, which will cause great social unrest in American society. Zhu Jinglun is very much looking forward to seeing what President Lincoln will do when he cries for the liberation of slaves. Lincoln established the only colony in the United States in Africa with the aim of sending black slaves back to their hometown.
Our own people find a livelihood, industry and accumulate foreign exchange funds to harm American society. Of course, this is not the only purpose. Who will do bad things if nothing happens? Zhu Jinglun can’t be indifferent to immigration.
"Our company can also recruit immigrants under reliable circumstances, but we immigrants can’t be pigs and get kicked after doing coolies. Remember that our country is poor now, and our citizens will definitely suffer and be wronged, but we Chinese can sweat and cry, but we can’t shed blood. We can’t let these people become Americans, build their country and consume it, and we can’t let them die like dogs. If we want to immigrate, we must give them land to live in peace and stability."
Zhu Jinglun said these WuChongYao don’t know.
He could not have known that it was even more tragic for Americans to build railways and employ a large number of Chinese workers in mines to be blackmailed.
He didn’t know that the Americans would hand over the most dangerous workers who planted the extremely unstable nitroglycerin powder to the chemical industry. When the wages of these chemicals were high, they didn’t know the danger. As a result, a large number of Chinese workers were killed, but their families were looking forward to their making a fortune in the United States, and as a result, they never returned to their hometown for a generation.
Canadians hate it even more. Whenever they want to do the most dangerous work, they sarcastically say, "This is an opportunity for China people" and then let Chinese workers go to the most dangerous cliffs to dig cliffs and blow up mountains. About half of the ten workers can finish it alive, which is greater than the casualties in the war.
But as a result, they helped Americans and Canadians build the most difficult railway, and their photos were left in the commemorative photos to commemorate the white people.
In this new world, Zhu Jinglun certainly hopes that Chinese people can immigrate here and find their American dream here. Unfortunately, this is not their dream place. Therefore, Zhu Jinglun refuses to let Chinese people have the same status as dogs. If they want to immigrate, they must also be farmers and cultivate immigrants on their own land, otherwise they would rather not immigrate.
"Do Americans allow us to buy their land?"
Wu Chongyao has some doubts that he is from China, because it is impossible for China to allow foreigners to buy land in China. So far, Zhu Jinglun has also left Americans in the pit area, which is why he has wasted a lot of effort and adopted various means.
Zhu Jinglun said, "There should be no prohibition."
Zhu Jinglun remembers that the United States did not refuse to enter China before excluding China. Britain set up a large number of agricultural companies and animal husbandry companies in the United States
"If we can buy land, we’d better go directly to buy wasteland, which should be able to buy a lot, and then let our workers sell it to them for company transportation after the cotton harvest season is over. I think the cheapest land in the United States may be the land in the central and western regions, and it’s best to be closer to our country in the western region. If we immigrate to a certain number, we can also use fixed routes to facilitate them to go home and visit relatives."
Zhu Jinglun thinks that it is difficult for large-scale immigrants from China to gain a foothold in the east and the middle. The only possibility to gain a foothold is that it is vast and sparsely populated. Where is San Francisco in the western region?
If we can immigrate a few million people to the western United States, we will be able to move the whole society of China to China stably, and the culture and China language will take root here, and then the economies on both sides of the Pacific will be centered in China.
Another advantage of focusing on western immigration is that it is geographically connected with western Canada, while northwest Canada is connected with Alaska. Don’t forget that Alaska is a big land now.
