For the current United States, Hu Chuyuan is not only worried about young children studying in the United States, but also has another thing that has a far-reaching impact on China, that is, the infamous "Chinese Exclusion Act".

Hu Chuyuan and Rong Hong asked: "Although I am in China, I like to have people collect newspapers from various countries and translate and read information from various countries. As far as I can hear, the current trend of anti-Chinese exclusion in the United States is getting more and more intense, is there really such a thing? ”

Rong Hong sighed: "This is indeed the case. Although the Wu family's financial resources are not low, they can only rely on the Russell family to take care of them, and the Wu family and the Wu family account for most of the shares of the Hanhua Bank itself, but it is the members of the Russell family who come forward to manage it. The reason for this is precisely that Americans are anti-Chinese and discriminate against Chinese and Asian races. ”

Hu Chuyuan said: "I am worried that this incident will eventually have a very bad impact on the Chinese people in China and the United States. I would like to contribute another amount of money, and after my husband returns to the United States, he will set up the National Chinese Association to donate political expenses to American politicians and lobby American congressmen. In addition, the National Association of Chinese in America is also responsible for safeguarding the rights and interests of Chinese in the United States. ”

"Huh...... Hu Gongzi? ”

Rong Hong really didn't expect that Hu Chuyuan, who was less than twenty years old in front of him, would have the leisure to take care of these things and find countermeasures.

It's weird!

After thinking about it for a while, Rong Hong said: "This matter is even more incumbent on me, but the key is still on Ambassador Chen Lanbin, who is indifferent to this, and said that all Chinese should be sent back to China to avoid being insulted by outsiders and affecting the image of the Qing Dynasty." ”

"This ......!" Hu Chuyuan didn't know what to say, Chen Lanbin was not a mediocre Qing Dynasty official, but ...... Subject to his education and ideas, and subject to this era, it is not surprising that he said such things.

Hu Chuyuan thought for a moment, and said to Rong Hong: "Master Chen, I will figure out a way, you will first receive a sum of money from me and go back to the United States to operate the National Chinese Association, defend rights and fund Chinese youth to study through the association, and the association will also buy schools and provide political donations to more enlightened American political parties." ”

Rong Hong said: "Then you can only donate money to the moderate and radical factions in the Republican Party first, and a new round of presidential elections is about to be held, and it is said that the Republican Party intends to let the leader of the moderate faction, former President Grant, take office for the third time, and with his exploits in the Civil War, he may still have a big surname." ”

Hu Chuyuan snorted, but said: "As long as there are possible Republican electors, the Chinese Association of the United States will contribute a sum of money, and the number is the same, and it doesn't need to be too high." After the Republican electors make a final decision, the association will donate on a large scale. Investing in politics is good business...... The premise is to vote for the right person. ”

Rong Hong nodded silently and said, "This time I can meet and talk to Master Hu in detail, Rong Mou has also benefited a lot, and he has benefited a lot!" It's a pity that I haven't met a second person like you in China. I think this may be your luck and the tragedy of the motherland. ”

Hu Chuyuan couldn't laugh.

Seeing that it was already noon, he left Rong Hong for lunch and further discussed the establishment of the school in detail.

Although the Chinese Americans are now mainly concentrated in San Francisco, the earlier immigrants, as well as the wealthier immigrants, are in Boston, and Yung Wing wants to set up the headquarters and school of the National Chinese Association in Boston.

Hu Chuyuan has other ideas, he wants to arrange it in the San Francisco area, considering the possible impact of the San Francisco earthquake, he hopes to be located in Oakland, the problem is that Oakland is still a small market town, and all kinds of facilities are not sufficient.

In the end, Hu Chuyuan agreed to Yung Hong's suggestion to open a middle school in Boston for the time being, and then slowly consider moving to San Francisco.

On the other hand, Hu Chuyuan set up some middle schools in China, gradually selected smarter students with better foundations and sent them to the United States for further study, and also set up special halls that used all foreign Chinese teaching materials, and focused more on sending international students abroad.

Rong Hong lived in the Hu Mansion for a few days, and had been discussing with Hu Chuyuan about running a school and the Chinese Association.

He also introduced Hu Chuyuan to a senior partner of the American company Qichang & Co., Shanghai Taipan Jin Nengheng, who also served as a director of the Anglo-American Public Concession and the U.S. consular representative in Shanghai.

This person's position in Shanghai is very important, but compared with those people in the headquarters of Qichang Foreign Bank, it seems insignificant.

Qichang is a very special enterprise, its founder Samuel Russell is the founder of the Russell family, Russell's cousin William Russell is the founder of the Yale University Skull and Bones Society in the United States, and throughout the history of Qichang Foreign Company, there have been Warren Delano Jr. and others.

Warren Delano Jr. served as the general manager of Guangzhou Qichang & Co., overseeing the business of both Guangzhou and Hong Kong, and his grandson was President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who worked as a lawyer in the Chinese Zhigong Court in his early years precisely because of the close ties between the Russell and Wu families.

The Bank's ability to acquire original shareholder equity at the Federal Reserve also benefited from the Russell family's traditional influence in early American politics.

Obviously, Jin Nengheng has also been taken care of by others, although he came to meet Hu Chuyuan, he avoided talking about business.

Hu Chuyuan didn't care.

After sending Rong Hong away, Hu Chuyuan continued to toss Ruoguad's imitation work with Xu Shou and others, but in just ten days, the wave of Shanghai businessmen squeezing him out became more and more agitated, saying that Hu Chuyuan would not do business with Fukang Qianzhuang and Jiangnan Commercial Bank if he didn't get out of Shanghai, and some people even threatened to find some rogue tycoons in Shanghai to clean him up, and let Hu Chuyuan walk in vertically and carry him back horizontally.

In a few days, the number of hooligans loitering near the Hu Mansion increased significantly, and the Concession Patrol Office had to strengthen patrols in this area.

At the gates of the two major stores in the Shanghai Concession and Songjiang Mansion, some hooligans were often surrounded by some hooligans to make trouble, and business became more and more deserted, and local merchants and foreign firms in Shanghai also refused to lend money from the bank.

The business of the Gongji pawnshop is even more deserted, and there are more troublemakers.

Even the Jiangnan Commercial Bank, which has an official stock background, has not been spared, as if countless hooligans have poured out overnight.

But the more this is the case, the more Hu Chuyuan can't leave, if he leaves so disgraced, how will he go back to Shanghai Beach to do business in the future?

Hu Chuyuan also had a hidden anger in his heart, full of righteous indignation, he had a lot of big things to do in Shanghai, especially the most important thing was to establish education, but these people .......

He had nothing to say.

To tell the truth, he really wanted to withdraw from Shanghai and China overnight, and let these people disappear in the flames of war.

How long can Sheng Xuanhuai be happy, as soon as his legs are stretched, tens of millions of family properties will be occupied by the political axe of the Republic of China, and his children can only flee to sell Sheng's ramen.

Tang Yanshu was even more miserable, he himself teamed up with Xu Run to sell opium, and his sons were all big smokers, and within a few years of his death, his family property was blackmailed by officials, and the whereabouts of his children were unknown.

……

Thinking about it now, Hu Chuyuan only felt that these two people deserved it.

At this time, Zuo Zongtang sent Yang Changjun to send him a letter, saying that he was already in Suzhou, and asked him to go to Suzhou to discuss the silk industry.
