Section 413 World Reaction

The treaty was signed. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

It was called the Sino-Dutch East India Treaty.

In the treaty, the Dutch promised that the Chinese would be treated the same as the foreigners in Nanyang, and that the poll tax, inheritance tax, and the war tax and income tax that were being levied on the wealthy Chinese would be abolished.

The Dutch also apologized for what happened to the Chinese workers in the East Indies colony, saying that they were responsible for their lack of supervision and that they would pay compensation to the Chinese workers concerned for a total of 10 million guilders.

The Dutch also promised that from the date of signing the treaty, China would be allowed to set up institutions to supervise and manage the situation of Chinese workers in Nanyang, and that the Netherlands would unconditionally cooperate with China's management of Chinese workers.

China announced the establishment of an overseas labor service bureau, which is responsible for managing all Chinese labor affairs, including the overseas work of Chinese workers, and the labor service content is managed by this labor service bureau.

Immediately after the treaty was signed, China announced that it would withdraw its troops from Batavia within three days and Belitung Island within a month. China solemnly pledged that it has no ambitions for the legitimate territory of other countries, but at the same time expressed its opposition to all acts that undermine China's territorial integrity.

China's statement satisfied the Dutch and made the British depressed, because isn't China's territorial issue the Hong Kong issue, and now besides Britain, which other country has territory in China?

The Dutch praised the Chinese in a high-profile manner, believing that this is a responsibility for international peace and that China is a responsible power.

Three days after the signing of the Sino-Dutch East India Treaty, the withdrawal of troops from Batavia was completed, and a supplementary treaty was signed between the two countries, in which the Netherlands reduced the tax rate on goods imported from China into the East Indies by a maximum of 30 percent, while China directly exempted all property from the South Seas for a period of 10 years.

The whole world breathed a sigh of relief for China's peaceful withdrawal from the South Seas, because many countries were worried that a war between China and Britain would break out because of this, and it was hard to say whether Britain and China had gone to war, whether it would cause another world war.

As a result, most countries applaud the Chinese's choice to compromise, but are concerned about the Chinese government's interference in Chinese workers. Especially in many countries in the Americas, they are even a little panicked about it. Because there are many Chinese laborers in the Americas, and there are also many Chinese laborers working on sugarcane plantations in Cuba and other countries, if these Chinese laborers cause China's military involvement, these countries can not afford it, and the Qing government sent a cruiser to make many Chinese people afraid, let alone China now.

Moreover, the Chinese Government has also sent a note to these countries to send an investigation team to investigate the problem of Chinese workers in various countries, and hopes that these countries will cooperate.

Many countries have begun to quietly promulgate regulations requiring the estates that employ Chinese workers to pay attention to improving the treatment of Chinese workers, and resolutely not to force labor or even beat people to death.

For a time, the treatment of Chinese workers did improve, but it made many manor owners begin to terminate their contracts with Chinese workers and send them back to China, the most important reason why they hire Chinese workers is just because of the low wages of Chinese workers, and they can bully as much as they want, and now bullying may lead to China's retaliation, then don't take the risk.

Brazil, Mexico and other small countries in the Americas are just firing Chinese workers and sending them back to China, but for powerful countries like Britain and the United States, they will start to worry about the problem of Chinese workers and cause conflicts with China, not to mention that the Americans have always been anti-Chinese, but the British government began to actively encourage the introduction of workers from India, so to balance the problem of too many Chinese workers in the Malayan colonies, but they did not ban Chinese workers, otherwise China would have something to say.

"Hey!"

Yang Chao couldn't help but sigh when he received the news.

After this incident came out, the whole world began to resist Chinese workers, and saw that small countries in Central America and South America adopted various ways to restrict Chinese workers, such as the Panamanian government's regulations that enterprises employing Chinese workers must increase taxes and use the excuse of improving the treatment of Chinese workers.

This makes it inconvenient for the Chinese government to intervene, so just send a note, people say that it is an internal matter, and it is to take care of Chinese workers and improve their treatment.

In this way, the way for Chinese to emigrate is getting narrower and narrower, but Yang Chao does not regret it, rather than going abroad like this, it is better to stay in the country, as for what to open up living space for the Chinese, Yang Chao dismisses it, it is a matter of the country, if you really need to open up space, you can drive a tank like Adolf.

It is impossible to let the poor peasants go out like slaves to open up.

"Chinese workers are slaves overseas!"

The Nanyang problem was solved, but Pan Xun did not let go of this good opportunity, and he was still mentioning it, and he kept mentioning it.

"During the Wanli period, there were tens of thousands of Chinese in the Philippines, and the Philippine colonial authorities carried out a massacre of the Chinese. The Dutch built the city of Batavia and recruited tens of thousands of Chinese successively, and the Dutch colonial authorities were worried that the Chinese forces would massacre more than 10,000 overseas Chinese in the city under the pretext of searching for arms. ”

"In 1810, the Portuguese kidnapped hundreds of Hubei tea farmers from China, trafficked ships to drift at sea for several months, and the mortality rate often exceeded 30%, known as the floating hell.

From 1847 to 1874, 143,040 indentured Chinese laborers were transported to Spanish-controlled Cuba, while only 126,000 arrived alive, and 17,032 Chinese laborers died on the sea, about 90% of the indentured Chinese laborers who were trafficked to Cuba were sold to sugar cane plantations and sugar houses, and the rest were sold as slaves. Due to the brutal exploitation of plantation owners, the average working life of Chinese workers in Cuba is only five years, and only about 40,000 of the 126,000 Chinese laborers who went to Cuba survived. ”

"Foreigners rely on cheating, robbing, whipping, and oppression. As soon as he got on the foreign ship, he didn't want to go home alive. How many people have been separated from their wives because of this, and how many people have died because of this. In the past, our country was poor and weak, and the Manchu court was mediocre and incompetent, but now everything is over, and the strong republic has stood up, and we must stand up and be people! ”

The applause rang out like thunder.

In the auditorium of Guangmei University in Guangzhou, thousands of college students were excited and applauded very fiercely, but they still could not express the intensity of their hearts.

"Long live the Republic!"

"Long live China!"

"Hooray!"

The shouts were endless, Pan Xun bowed on the stage, and then quietly walked out of the backstage.

It's time for him to go to the next place, Xiamen University in Fujian.

"The most hateful thing is the Americans, when they were building the railway, they came to the Qing government with a gun and asked the Chinese workers to go abroad freely, and the sleepers were the tombstones of the Chinese, but when the railroad was completed and the United States prospered, they expelled, insulted, and even slaughtered the Chinese."

"On October 24, 1871, hundreds of white mobs in Los Angeles killed 19 Chinese in the vicinity of Negro Lane in Los Angeles, and six years later, all Chinese homes in the same area were set on fire; On October 13, 1880, more than 3,000 white mobs surrounded a Chinese residential area in the downtown area of Denver, Colorado, a Chinese was killed, countless people were injured, and the property of the premises was damaged more than 100,000 taels ******of silver. ”

In 1882, Senator Miller, a Republican of California, proposed to the Senate to suspend Chinese workers from going to the United States, and the Senate voted 29-15 to pass the Chinese Exclusion Act. The House of Representatives passed by a further vote of 167 to 66 (with 55 abstentions). On May 6, 1882, President Chester Arthur signed the Act to insult China. ”

In 1885, a large-scale bloody massacre broke out in the Stone Springs Coal Mine in Wyoming, where more than 150 white people gathered and surrounded Chinatown with guns, and began to burn and loot, the Chinese workers scattered and fled, 28 people were killed, 15 were seriously injured, and property damage was as high as 200,000 taels of silver. And the U.S. government acquitted all the rioters. ”

"In 1887, in Kauf, Oregon, a mob of seven people, the youngest of whom was only 15 years old, massacred 31 Chinese laborers just for a few thousand dollars in gold. Four of the rioters were arrested by the police, one became a tainted witness for the prosecution, and the remaining three were charged with murder, but all were acquitted. ”

Pan Xun gave an equally impassioned speech at Xiamen University.

"Brothers and friends, this is the attitude of the United States towards the Chinese, despising, humiliating, and looking down on people. My China has been towering for 5,000 years, and I have never fallen so far. In the past, we were weak, and others looked down on us, but now that we are strong, they still don't change their attitude. Brothers, what do you say to do? ”

"Declare war!"

"Go to war."

"Dignity, not peace."

The students were in a state of excitement, and Pan Xun knew where his views were most popular and where his market was.

The school, and it must be the university, is that only these young people with strong blood, students who have received the formal education of the new school, have awakened their patriotic feelings and national dignity.

"Everyone is right, we want dignity. Please believe that as long as I am in the position of prime minister for one day, I will fight for the dignity of the people of the country for one day. Your university was built by Mr. Jiageng, during which I also put forward some opinions, and now I am very satisfied, what I see is a group of vigorous and enthusiastic young people, who are the future of the motherland and the backbone of the nation. ”

After Pan Xun became the prime minister, he still focused on education, rolled out compulsory education across the country, and built more than a dozen new universities, an education system from primary school to university, which was initially established, although the scale was not large enough, but it was complete enough.

"As the backbone of the nation, you must shoulder your responsibilities and reasonably express your views to the country. I hope that when you come to the general election, you will be able to cast your precious vote, the right vote. ”

This is Pan Xun's ultimate goal, canvassing is coming. (To be continued.) )
