In another time and space, from the Sino-Japanese War in 1894 to Japan's defeat in 1945, for more than half a century, Japan plundered countless cultural relics, which became an indelible pain in the hearts of all Chinese.

There is no regret in this time and space, and even the Chinese in this time and space may not have so much hatred for the Japanese in another time and space, after all, it is no longer possible for Japan to invade the Qing Dynasty, nor will it cause as much harm to the Chinese as in another time and space, the reality may be reversed, after a few decades, after the Japanese nation awakens, it is more likely that the Japanese hate the Chinese, especially when they see the "three major artifacts" displayed in the Horse Museum.

Not necessarily, the national identity of the Japanese is to respect the strong, even after the awakening of the Japanese nation, as long as the strength of the United States is stronger than Japan, the Japanese may not have as much hatred for the Japanese in another time and space, the Japanese do not love and hate as the Chinese, the Chinese have always been gentlemen and revenge for ten years is not too late, the Japanese probably not, they are better at kneeling down to learn, but they will not stand after kneeling for a long time, so the Japanese in another time and space also frequently engage in small actions, one moment to amend the constitution, one moment to referendum, It looks like a serious matter, but it always gives people the feeling of a child asking for candy.

Li Mu spent a whole morning visiting Bai Qi's various collections in Japan in the past two years.

Bai Qi collection is not only Japanese cultural relics, but also including the Qing Kingdom and Goryeo, this year the Qing Empire has no concept of cultural relics protection at all, so the outflow of cultural relics is very serious, all say that the prosperity of antiques and troubled gold, the Qing Empire is now no one to collect, all want to replace the old objects at home with gold, probably only the Old Buddha in the Old Summer Palace still thinks that the Qing Empire is in its heyday.

It would be nice to put all these cultural relics on Shikoku Island, or even set up a museum on Shikoku Island.

Li Mu doesn't think so, Shikoku Island is Li Mu's private property, it basically makes no sense to put these antiques on Shikoku Island, the museum should be opened, but it can't be opened on Shikoku Island, Vladivostok is a good choice, since the future Vladivostok is mainly Chinese, then put these cultural relics in Vladivostok, it will be more warning.

"The United States is very important, where is our base camp, we must manage it well, but Vladivostok is more important to us, in the United States, we Chinese have always been a minority and are 'foreign devils', Vladivostok is our territory, so in the next ten years, or even twenty years, our focus will be on Vladivostok, there are some things that don't need to be said, just do it, museums, hospitals, schools, theaters, these things will be there slowly." Li Mu doesn't want to be known to everyone, there are some things that he can know, and there is no need to make a big fuss.

Now Vladivostok, like the mainland of the United States, are trying their best to attract immigrants, the mainland of the United States does not refuse, as long as someone is willing to immigrate to the United States, the United States welcomes it, but Vladivostok can not be like this, Li Mu and Chen Guofang have the same opinion in this regard, Vladivostok needs to immigrate, but only Chinese immigrants are needed, other ethnic groups still forget it, if someone is willing to come, the Vladivostok government will not refuse, but the Vladivostok government will never take the initiative to attract immigrants of other nationalities.

Since you don't want non-Chinese immigrants to Vladivostok, you need to keep a low profile, Li Mu said that the museums, hospitals, schools, etc. are not popular in the United States, and there are even fewer in the Far East, if the Vladivostok government really vigorously promotes it, then people who want to immigrate to Vladivostok will definitely flock to it, don't overestimate the patriotism of people in this year, some people in the 21st century are willing to mark the price clearly in order to go abroad.

"I've already said hello to Tokugawa Liyan, it's spring, I'll send people over here, and I won't delay Lao Chen's affairs." Bai Qi has enough authority in Japan, and this kind of thing is just to say hello, maybe you don't even have to pay for it, just take care of the food.

Bai Qi refers to Li Mu's mention of hiring laborers from Japan to work in Vladivostok, this matter is very simple, there is not much in Japan now, that is, there are many people, originally only four islands are enough to stumble, and Li Mu forcibly bought one, if it weren't for Tokugawa Liyan's bitter begging, Li Mu originally didn't even want the Japanese to get involved.

But looking back, there is no need to be so harsh on Japan, now Li Mu can not get enough human resources from the Qing Empire, the Chinese have the largest population group in the world, but they are firmly controlled by the Qing government in the Qing Dynasty has no future, if it were not for natural disasters, the Qing people are everywhere, the Qing government is also afraid of gathering people to rebel, the Pacific Company may not be able to complete Li Mu's immigration requirements, looking at the world, as long as Japan's human resources are sufficient, and the key is low price, to make Tokugawa obedient, You have to give something good.

"Okay, when the time comes, I'll ask Lao Chen to settle your wages for you." Li Mu gave enough oil and water, as for how to divide Bai Qi and Tokugawa Liyan, it is not a problem for Li Mu to consider, anyway, what Li Mu wants is not fair, what he wants is only labor, as long as the Vladivostok government gives money, then even if the Japanese turn over the old accounts in the future, they will not be able to find the head of the Vladivostok government.

One thing is certain, no matter how much money the Vladivostok government gives to Bai Qi, even if only one-tenth of this money is given to those laborers in the end, it is good, whether it is Bai Qi or the Tokugawa shogunate, they do not treat Japanese civilians as human beings, Japanese society itself has classes, and it is the norm for the people at the bottom to be exploited by the upper class.

This "habitual" is indeed a bit strange, but it is also terrifying, because this kind of thinking is very dangerous, once these people at the bottom meet another group of people who can be exploited at will, they will also get used to it, which is why the Japanese were so cruel during the eight-year war of resistance.

Other people see the Japanese as cruel, the Japanese don't think so, they think it's normal, because in their understanding, the cruelty of the strong to the weak is a matter of course, and not being cruel is against human nature, and they really don't appreciate it.

In fact, when the Japanese surrendered in 1945, the Japanese were also prepared to be brutally treated, but unfortunately the person the Japanese met at that time was MacArthur, and the Japanese escaped.

In fact, if you want to talk about the Virgin, the one I just said is, there are few people in human history who are more "holy" than MacArthur, except for the Japanese, it is estimated that few people in the world are grateful to MacArthur, MacArthur and several of his subordinates who lived in Japanese concentration camps have already lost their human form when they are rescued, and I don't know how MacArthur persuaded them to treat the Japanese well, is it the effect of hot springs?

"It doesn't matter if you are paid or not, Tokugawa is quite president now, and a large part of the laborers who were sent to Vladivostok were opponents of Tokugawa, and that guy wished those people died in Vladivostok again." Bai Qi understands Tokugawa Liyan's every move, maybe Bai Qi is interested in this salary, Tokugawa Liyan can't take care of it, what people care about is the world, this ideal is big enough.

After the Industrial Revolution, changes were taking place all over the world, and even the Qing Empire was shouting that it was going to change the law, and there was no reason for Japan to hold back.

But the momentum to move forward is not very sufficient, after the restoration of the Tokugawa shogunate, Tokugawa Liyan killed the emperor a line, the current emperor is Tokugawa Liyan does not know where to find the child, the child will also have a day to grow up, will also have their own thoughts, so the current Tokugawa shogunate still has hidden dangers, Tokugawa Liyan is to change the Japanese political system, so that Tokugawa Liyan can justifiably master Japan.

Compared with the position of "emperor" with a clear direction, the scope of the president is much broader, and the term is the same as that of the United States every four years, or the same as the future of Russia, or the family monopoly like North Korea, the term of office is only a formality, and the election is the true meaning, even if Tokugawa Liyan decides to serve a term of one year, Tokugawa Liyan will have a way to be elected again and again, and in the future, Tokugawa Liyan will win the honor of a "father of democracy", such a good thing does not happen every year.

"I shouldn't die too much." Li Mu's words were very short, but his tone was very cold.

Unlike the current United States, Vladivostok does not have many large machinery, so whether it is to build roads or ports, it is more dependent on manpower.

Almost all large-scale projects in history are piled up with their lives, not to mention that the construction of Vladivostok is still hired by the Japanese, Chen Guofang will not feel distressed when he uses it, this is not because of how much Chen Guofang hates the Japanese, the Japanese did not cause any harm to Chen Guofang, and Chen Guofang has no hatred for the Japanese at all.

But the objective conditions are like this, even if Chen Guofang is distressed, there is no way, when the United States built the Pacific Railroad, did those railway companies hate the Chinese?

No, they don't hate, on the contrary, compared with Mexicans and Irish, those railway company bosses like the Chinese very much, because the Chinese are more capable and can endure hardships, but this does not change the fact that those railway workers have suffered heavy casualties, because the objective conditions are like that, the Chinese go to build the railway, so the Chinese have suffered heavy casualties, if they are replaced by Mexicans or Irish, they will only suffer more casualties, which also does not mean that the bosses of the railway companies hate the Irish and Mexicans.

Just like Li Mu is now also involved in the plundering of the Indians, not because Li Mu hates the Indians, but because the plundering of the Indians has become a common behavior at all levels in the United States, even if Li Mu does not go, there will be other people who go, at least Li Mu will leave a way for those Indians to live, and will not take the Indians' skulls to receive rewards.

When something becomes a common behavior of the whole society, don't say anything about being alone, at this time, it is not a matter of being alone, but out of place, and choosing to be an alternative often comes at a cost, either to be isolated or to be targeted.

Li Mu came to Shikoku Island and did not block the news, and before he had lunch, Tokugawa Liyan hurriedly came to Shikoku Island to meet Li Mu.

This is not an improper wording, it is really a visit, whether you want to see it or not depends on Li Mu's mood, fortunately, Li Mu is in a good mood now, so Tokugawa Liyan can step into Li Mu's manor.

Of course, Li Mu did not deliberately put away those white collections because of Tokugawa Liyan's visit, Li Mu didn't know if Tokugawa Liyan had seen it, it was supposed to be seen, because the position of those collections was very conspicuous, but from Tokugawa Liyan's face, Li Mu couldn't see anything unusual, no grief and indignation, and no rabbit and fox sadness, Li Mu only saw humble respect from Tokugawa Liyan's face.

Inexplicably very sad feeling, good or bad is also the leader of a country.

"Your Excellency, it's a pleasure to meet you." Li Mu's attitude is still good, at least he didn't sit on the chair and couldn't get up.

"Mr. Reem, it's a pleasure to meet you." Tokugawa Liyan does not have the mentality of a master, Shikoku Island is already Li Mu's private territory, and now Tokugawa Liyan is a guest.

The reason why Tokugawa Liyan came to Li Mu is very simple, Tokugawa Liyan wants to send some people to Li Mu's "Time Magazine" to study, it seems that Tokugawa Liyan has realized the importance of public opinion, and has also seen the performance of "Time Magazine" in the US presidential election, which is a good thing, as I said just now, the Japanese are very good at learning.

"Yes, Time Magazine welcomes the exchange of ideas of all kinds, and it is admirable that His Excellency the General is committed to transforming Japan from a feudal country into a democratic state." When there is an opportunity, Li Mu certainly does not refuse the output of values.

"Learning" this kind of thing is a metaphysics, let not let the learning is one thing, whether you can learn is the other aspect, from the bottom of my heart, Li Mu of course does not want Tokugawa Liyan to control Japanese public opinion, this kind of thing is better to leave it to Bai Qi to do, Tokugawa Liyan as long as he enjoys the results, but if Tokugawa Liyan wants to learn, Li Mu has no reason to refuse, anyway, even if Tokugawa Liyan copies "Time Magazine" to Japan, as long as Bai Qi wants, Li Mu has a way to play him to death.

Speaking of public opinion propaganda, everyone in this era is just a schoolchild in front of Li Mu, it is not difficult to copy the model of "Time Magazine", the Democratic Party did this a few years ago, but it has no effect, "Time Magazine" controls public opinion not by the model but by the content, as well as the reputation in the minds of readers, and the image that the editors usually deliberately maintain, without considering these problems, just simply copying the model, and in the end it can only be Dong Shi emulator.

"No, no, no, Mr. Reem, it's truly admirable that you're working alone in the United States to build such a great achievement." Tokugawa said this from the bottom of his heart, and even Li Mu himself believed that no one could do better than himself.
