Subtitle of this chapter: "The Legend of Maoshan Demon" and "Yimei Daochang"
Yuan Yanqian poked her head out and looked around, then closed the door lightly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info turned around and let out a long sigh of relief.
Puzzled, the master asked, "......What is this?"
Our Master Yuan took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his head and said: "The identity of our Yuan Clan's Bamboo Forest Sage is not secret, especially since my father was targeted by people with intentions a few years ago because he advised President Yuan to show his face. ”
"And I suspect that there are traitors to Freemasonry among us Seris, and even among the Sages of the Bamboo Forest, so I have to be more careful."
Well, in fact, he was afraid of waking up his neighbors and being scolded.
"Oh......" was interrupted by him like this, and the master of love craftsmanship also calmed down, and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Yuan, a banknote alone can't explain anything......"
"Hehehe......" our Master Yuan interrupted him with a sneer, "Paper money doesn't mean anything, so ...... Mr. Lovecraft, could you please tell me what you are bringing in so many Jewish immigrants to the United States? ”
"You always know about the Chinese Exclusion Act. Well, I do not deny that we Seris are pagans who do not believe in your God, and if it is not enough, do the Jews believe in the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit? ”
"Why is it that Jews, fellow infidels, can enter America in a grand manner, but we Cyris cannot? Is it the color of our skin? But you didn't expel African-Americans either. ”
"This ......"
These words once again silenced the master of the craft.
He certainly did not understand why the American people discriminated against Chinese more than Jews, or more precisely, why Chinese were at the bottom of the chain of racial discrimination in the United States.
However, our Master Yuan combined the life memory and economic knowledge of two lifetimes, as well as the searcher of the master ball, and finally figured it out. In fact, to put it mildly, it is nothing more than ...... Money!
It is well known that the first large-scale entry of Chinese workers into the United States was during the California Gold Rush in the mid-nineteenth century (hence the name of San Francisco), after which a large number of Chinese laborers participated in the construction of the Pacific Railroad (there is a saying that there is a skeleton of a Chinese laborer under every track in the Sierra Nevada), and the cheap and hard-working Seris crowded out a lot of black and white labor.
When the railroad was built, the Chinese laborers who had saved up their wages moved into the cities to work in low-tech services, most often in laundries and restaurants. Others went to work as servants, because the Americans found that the Chinese were much easier to call than the. This in turn caused many cooks, washerwomen and servants to lose their jobs.
Just like a hundred years later, the Chinese used their hard work and tenacity to "offend" the bottom of the American people in a very short period of time. White extremist politicians exploited this hatred, giving rise to the infamous Chinese Exclusion Act.
Why, then, is the Jewish suffering so much stronger?
For one, Jews do place a great deal of emphasis on education. Most immigrants are skilled in their skills. At least craftsmen like tailors, jewelers and watchmakers. For these jobs with technical thresholds, there are naturally fewer people competing with them for posts.
Second, Jews are indeed more "united" than the Chinese, and once one of them has entered an industry and established himself, he will recruit his own compatriots to enter. So the first Jewish financiers were tailors and petty traders, and the Jewish tycoons of Hollywood were almost all involved in the jewelry and fur trade.
People, after all, are realistic. A migrant worker and a white-collar worker, who will you look up to, is this self-explanatory?
Therefore, 70 years have passed, and the Chinese have never been able to integrate into mainstream American society. In fact, after a hundred years, things are not much better.
It is naturally a long way to go to change such a situation, even as a traverser Yuan Yanqian is impossible to accomplish alone, but he can't improve the status of the Chinese for the time being, and he can't suppress the status of the Jews? Well, if it's possible, it's like a little devil like it was on October 1.
The master of Ai Craft, who is in crisis in front of him, is a good helper, and now he can take this little brother under his command with just one last blow. AND THIS FINAL-STRIKE NATURALLY HAS TO BE CLEAN AND BEAUTIFUL, AND IT HAS TO BE PERFECT......
"Pickup pickup!"
"Master Ball, don't worry, I'm just borrowing the name of "The Legend of Maoshan Demon" and those movies." (note 1)
"Boom!"
Our Master Yuan lit another camel and took a deep breath and said, "Actually, I'm not the first Bamboo Forest Sage to notice the New World. Back in the middle of the last century, a senior came to the United States. ”
"He is an outstanding disciple of the Maoshan sect of Seris Taoism, and his Dharma name is ...... An eyebrow. ”
"When Yimei Daoist was practicing on the southeast coast of China, he accidentally learned that someone was buying boys and girls, and after his investigation, he found that these people were actually believers in evil gods, and the reason why they bought children was actually to sacrifice to evil gods."
"The jealous and vengeful sage of the bamboo forest killed the cultists in China, got clues from them, tracked them down to the New World, and wanted to wipe out these evil cults who exterminated humanity. And the year was 1865......"
"In 1865......" muttered the master of the craftsman, "it must be ......"
"That's right, the year President Lincoln was assassinated." Master Yuan opened his mouth and asked, "Mr. Ai Craftsman, do you know the person Judas-P-Benjamin?" ”
“Judah-P.-Benjamin…… I really don't know. ”
Yuan Yanqian said solemnly: "This person is in Jefferson, the president of the Confederate States? Jefferson-Davis served in his cabinet as Counsel General, Secretary of War, and Secretary of State. The two dollar bills of the Union State bear his portrait. Was he the first Jew to hold a high-ranking cabinet position in the so-called 'American' government, or was he a ......" (author's note: this is not an apocryphal idea.) )
"The leader of the cultists!"
"When he first came to the United States, he was naturally unfamiliar with the place, and he couldn't even speak English. However, with the help of his fellow Seris, he was able to track down some suspicious characters from the clues. ”
On the night of April 14, 1865, he tracked his target to Ford's Theatre. It's a pity that he didn't know that the target of these guys was President Lincoln...... Well, at the time, he didn't even know who President Lincoln was. So there was no time to stop their assassination. ”
"However, the Elder of the First Eyebrow quietly captured a murderer, and learned from him that the leader of Judah and the name of the evil god they worshipped."
The master of the crafts asked curiously, "What is the name of that evil god?" ”
Yuan Yan's eyebrows and eyes were tangled, the corners of her mouth twitched, her Adam's apple rolled, and she took a few deep breaths before she said bitterly: "Suzumiya-Haruhi! ”
