“…… That's the Statue of Liberty? ”

Standing on the bow of the ship in the cold sea breeze, Anna asked excitedly as she looked at the statue in the distance.

After hearing the news that the cruise ship was about to arrive in New York, Anna's uncomfortable seasickness symptoms seemed to disappear in an instant, and she immediately pulled John to the bow of the ship to look at the legendary New World from afar. It was only more than half an hour after the crew reminded everyone that Anna saw the Statue of Liberty, which was becoming more and more famous.

"Well, that's the Statue of Liberty."

Nodding, John replied with emotion.

The Eiffel Tower in Paris, France, is due to be inaugurated next year, and the Statue of Liberty, the symbol of New York, was inaugurated the year before, and it was the French who tried to express their friendliness and built it. John certainly knew that although Americans were initially resistant, over time, the statue would become a symbol of freedom that Americans would be proud of, and a beacon of safety for refugees from all over Europe during the war!

But for John, he lamented that he was back!

Even if he still thinks of himself as a Chinese in his heart, but in this era, after living in the distant eastern continent for ten years, it can't give him much identity, but the city of New York can give him more of this feeling. This kind of psychological situation is indeed very strange, probably because there are many people in this city that he recognizes, and there are many things that he has worked so hard to create......

Seeing the Statue of Liberty from afarOne hour after John and his party set foot on the land of New York.

The notorious Ellis Island will not be opened for a few years at this time, and John, who lives in first class, cannot be hindered, but when he stepped off the cruise ship and passed through the inspection gate, Su Li, who had to stay in third class because he was not qualified to live in first class, encountered an unexpected incident: he was stopped by several Americans!

"Gentlemen, I'm John? Servant of Mr. Huntelaar! ”

Facing a few white people who were as fierce as they were. Su Li explained in a panic: "I came here from England with him, and he was on this ship......

While explaining, Su Li anxiously searched for familiar faces in the crowd, but to his disappointment, John who was in the first class cabin had simply come out of this passage, and the maids and butlers accompanying the Brister family had long since disappeared. It was full of white people carrying large bags from England to the New World......

"Damn it, I don't care whose servant you are!"

Tapping Su Li's shoulder with a smooth wooden stick, a middle-aged white man with a big belly said viciously: "As long as you are a Chinese, you are not allowed to enter the great United States of America, understand?" ”

"Haha......"

Looking at Su Li, who shrunk from being knocked by the wooden stick, several other white people laughed.

The great humiliation made Su Li's whole face become a little distorted. It's just that he knows that the white man's world is different from the domestic one, and he must not be rash, so after taking a deep breath. Su Li gritted his teeth and whispered, "Gentlemen, can you allow me to meet Mr. Huntelaar?" I have to inform him of the current situation! ”

"No! What if you take the opportunity to run away? ”

Without hesitation, the white fat man said categorically.

"But Mr. Huntelaar is a true New York gentleman!"

At this time, Su Li had no choice, so he simply said: "He owns a big hospital in New York City, and he is also the majority shareholder of several factories, if you don't inform him......"

"What?"

After hearing these words, the smile on the white fat man's face suddenly froze.

But he immediately felt as if he had been taken aback by a few words. His face suddenly became a little unbearable, and he knocked Su Li's shoulder fiercely and scolded: "Bastard." Are you threatening me? ”

"Of course not!"

After wandering outside for a few years, Su Li could easily see the white fat man's lust, and knowing that Mr. Huntelaar's identity made the other party begin to have scruples, so he endured the pain in his shoulder and said, "Sir, I'm just stating a fact!" ”

Su Li's words made several white people fall silent for a moment.

No matter how strong they are in front of these Chinese or European immigrants. But they knew very well that they were doing so because the other was in third class, but if that Mr. Huntelaar really had so much property in New York City as the Chinese said......

After getting together and discussing it, the white fat man quickly nodded and said, "Okay." Your master's name is ...... What's the name? What cabin was he in? We can send someone to inform him, but you ...... Stay here for me, don't leave even half a step! ”

"Mr. John Huntelaar, he's in first class!"

Looking at the white fat man whose tone had improved a lot, Su Li was overjoyed and hurriedly spoke.

"First class?"

After exchanging glances with his companions around him, the white fat man finally nodded and said, "Okay, we'll send someone to find this John right away?" Mr. Huntelaar, you are waiting here now......"

……

"Welcome home, sir."

On the dock in New York Harbor, Hans, the butler who had been waiting for three days, finally saw John and hurriedly stepped forward to salute respectfully.

"Thank you, Mr. Elber."

After stepping on New York soil, John couldn't help but take a deep breath before introducing himself to his butler: "Mr. Elber, this is Mr. and Mrs. Brister, and this is my fiancée Anna!" ”

Hans naturally knew that Mr. and Mrs. Brister and Anna would walk with John, and when they heard this, they hurriedly stepped forward and greeted them respectfully. Maybe he wouldn't care too much about the identity of the Bristers, but Anna? Brister was John's fiancée, the future mistress of the Huntelaar family, and Hans couldn't afford to be careless.

The crowd talked for a while on the docks, and Henry and the Brister family entourage found them with their luggage.

However, after counting the number of people, John frowned and asked, "What about Sue?" Isn't he with you? ”

"Huh?"

One of the attendants looked around and said in surprise, "I saw him when I got off the boat just now, why did he suddenly disappear?" ”

"Then we'll wait for him a little longer."

Frowning, John commanded in a low voice.

After hearing John's words, Hans couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. The docks of New York at the end of December are not a comfortable place, and if you are an ordinary servant, why not find someone to wait? It seems that the owner of his family thinks a lot of money about this guy named Sue.

But after waiting for a few minutes, instead of waiting for the servant named Sue, a guy in uniform came up and asked, "Excuse me, which one is John?" Mr. Huntelaar? ”

……

"I'm sorry sir, but I'm afraid we can't allow him into the United States!"

Facing John who rushed over after hearing the news? Mr. Huntelaar, a white staff member, carefully explained: "Under the Act Concerning the Enforcement of the Provisions of the Chinese Treaty and the Scott Act, we cannot allow Chinese people to enter the United States, or even allow them to leave and return......

Meet John? In the split second of Mr. Huntelaar, they knew that the other was not to be messed with.

The shoes are made of fine wool, and the shoes must be top-quality calfskin, which they can see at a glance if they are well-informed. What's more important is the temperament and attitude of the other party, calm and calm, with a confident posture, not like an ordinary person who has just encountered troubles!

Ordinary small businessmen can't do that.

"Don't talk to me about any bills!"

Waving his hand to interrupt the other party's words, John said with a gloomy face: "I don't know what laws have restrictions on the Chinese, but now Su Li is my servant, and my home is in New York, so he has to enter New York with me, understand?" ”

At the end of the day, John's voice suddenly became stern!

Of course, John had heard of the Chinese Exclusion Act that had just appeared a few years ago, and he naturally hated it in his heart, but because others were soft-spoken at this time, it was impossible to have any impact on it, so he naturally just buried his head and couldn't see it like an ostrich. But now these guys are actually using this to prevent Su Li from entering the country, how can this not make John angry?

Unceremoniously, John's anger erupted!

The United States is not the world hegemon more than a hundred years later, and New York City is now in one of the darkest periods in history, with corruption and gangsters rampant, so John knows very well in his heart that the so-called law or something is only for ordinary people. With his current status and status, regulations such as prohibiting Chinese from entering the country are just, and what he has to do at this time is to be tough and tough!

"This ......"

Swallowing hard, the sweat on the white man's head came out.

"Gentlemen, I'm in a hurry!"

Seeing that the other party had been overwhelmed by his momentum, John took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, and his brows suddenly furrowed: "Tell me now, can Su leave with me?" If you say you can't, I'll have to get you to nod your head in agreement by other means......" (To be continued......
