"Gentlemen! The Kansas-Nebraska Act is a complete hoax! Some are in RAPE Kansas, Senator Andrew Butler of South Carolina, and Mr. Douglas of Illinois, all of whom are outright advocates of slavery! We can't be deceived by them! ……”

Two days earlier, U.S. Senator Charles Sumner, a prominent Republican abolitionist radical, delivered the long speech titled "Crimes Against Kansas," in which he portrayed Andrew as a pimp.

And today, May 22, 1856, a U.S. senator from South Carolina named Brooks came to Sumner's table.

"Mr. Sumner, I have read your speech carefully, do you say Andrew is a pimp?" Senator Brooks is not young, and he usually walks with a cane.

"Yes! Mr! "Sumner is unyielding, even though he knows this Brooks is Andrew Butler's cousin, but this is the Senate!

"Well then! I'm going to duel you! But I didn't expect Brooks to say this.

"What?" Sumner felt he had misheard.

"Duel! You coward! ”

"What a joke!"

Is this the Senate good? Duel? Got in the wrong place, right?

Sumner wasn't ready to bother with Brooks, but he didn't expect that the next thing was a sharp pain in his head!

"You coward! You shit! Go to hell! Brooks kept slapping Sumner with the head of his pure gold staff, scolding as he returned!

"I gave that Sumner the hardest thirty blows he had!"

Afterwards, the old guy Brooks still told others everywhere that he regarded this incident as an honor.

This happened in Boston, because the current Capitol Hill is still being rebuilt, so the Senate is in Boston, you know, Sumner is a senator from Massachusetts, which means that Boston is his home field, but even so, that Brooks still knocked him on the head hard, and he was so arrogant, so this incident simply made all the people in the Free State angry!

Sumner is not an ordinary senator, he is a big man in the Republican Party, and when he was young, he was affirmed by many well-known politicians in Europe, otherwise he would not be the leader of the radical faction, but even if he did, it would be in vain.

Except that Brooks' gold-tipped cane was left in Boston for an exhibition, otherwise the Dixies would have taken them south to worship, and nothing else seemed to be there, and by the way, Sumner had a headache because of it.

This is so infuriating that abolitionists all over the United States can't stand it anymore, and they use all kinds of means to fight back!

"We're going to teach the Southerners a good lesson! Matthew! Are you coming? After getting the news, John Brown, the old man, immediately found Matthew, that is, Li Mengyang's farm, and it seemed that he was going to make a big operation.

"Huh? What the? "Matthew, this guy is very interesting, he saw Li Mengyang's color, everyone has been together for so long, there is a little tacit understanding, that means sue him, pretend to be stupid.

"Beat up those Southerners! Honest Mr. Sumner was beaten up by an old bastard from the South, and this is literally a slap in the face of us northerners! "John Brown was really angry, as if he was the one who was beaten.

"Huh? How much is it going so far? The Southerners are too assholes! Matthew scolded, but he also saw Li Mengyang's eyes, "But, Mr. Brown, look at us here, we have just built a home, these children have just settled down, they haven't eaten a good meal yet, we adults are really ......"

In short, all kinds of reasons, although they are all leaky.

"Alright! I really didn't notice it, I bothered you, I hope you don't feel weird, just live a good life in the future. The old man John Brown looked at Matthew, and then at the Chinese workers, especially at Li Mengyang's body for a few seconds, but he still gave up.

Boom, boom...... John Brown and his party are gone.

"What do you think will happen? Who is that Sumner? "Matthew was just the head of the gang in John Brown's eyes.

"I don't know!" Li Mengyang's answer was very simple, but he didn't finish speaking, "We are here to develop ourselves, not to get involved in their abolitionist movement, understand?" ”

"Well, I agree with you on that, but ......"

At this time, the big man Bill interjected, "I know that Sumner, a very famous guy, he is a big man in the Republican Party, you haven't heard of this party, have you?" Ha ha! ”

"Republican?" Li Mengyang was curious at this time, because how could he not know about this American political party? But how is this still new?

"That's right! These guys were brought together in the first place because they opposed the Kansas-Nebraska Act, and they were originally members of the 'Know-Nothing' party, but now they ......"

"Don't know anything about the party?"

didn't wait for the big man Bill to finish speaking, then Li Mengyang couldn't wait to ask again, because this 'doesn't know anything about the party', he knows too well, this is the first party he has seen since he came to the United States, and it has something to do with Huang Rong's sister.

"Haha! You Chinese workers should know about this party, because if you don't know anything about the party, you are excluding you, and by the way, in fact, they are also excluding the Irish. This last sentence is addressed to Matthew.

"Well, I've seen these bastards too, but what's wrong with them now? How did it become a Republican? Obviously, Matthew also has a bitter history.

"Haha, that's an interesting story." Big man Bill, is this guy going to tell a story again?

"I said, how does Mr. Bill know about so many political incidents?" Before the story was told, Eleanor asked.

That's right, Li Mengyang also has this question in his heart, the most important thing is, according to the fixed thinking of him, a traverser, should an ordinary person care so much about politics?

But Big Man Bill's explanation is very simple, "Of course I care about politics, why shouldn't I care about it?" Of course, I understand you too, you are from the west, it is too empty, the news is very slow, and, Ms. Chesnat, you don't have the right to vote, and it's normal that you don't care about politics. ”

Very good, the explanation of the big man Bill was very good. At least Li Mengyang understands it, I'm afraid that in this year, the topic of politics is the same as the celebrity gossip of his era, yes, there are few entertainment stars now, but there are a lot of political stars, they are holding speeches everywhere, and this thing is actually related to the current daily life, a male American with the right to vote, how can he not care?

However, what Li Mengyang didn't know was that as a liar, the big man Bill had to know more about politics than others, because in this way he could better deceive people, and now, he also made good use of the politics incident not to be caught.

"Actually, the story is very simple." Big man Bill began, "The Know-It-Nothing Party was very strong after it was founded, and they were supported by a lot of people, because although they said they didn't know anything, they just didn't want more outsiders to grab jobs, and naturally, as long as this view was a Native American, oh, I'm talking about people who were already American citizens, of course they would support it." So, knowing nothing, the party they took the mayors of many big cities, New York, Boston, many, many, but. ”

This one, that's interesting, but what?

"In just two years, they were finished, I don't know why, but anyway, they quickly failed, this party has existed in name only, but then, a turning point came, and many of these people have become Republicans, and they oppose that bill, it's as simple as that."

It's really a simple story, and the simple couldn't be simpler, but ......

"Then why is there such a party in California?" Li Mengyang just wants to know this question!

"California, haha, it's completely different from the East, and I've always been very skeptical that the U.S. government, it's those old men in Washington, can they manage California? Hahaha......"

Although it is a joke, it also exposes the problem of the United States at this time, that is, this country is not actually what we look like from the outside, it seems to be a 'country', there is a huge gap between the east and the west, and the US government in the east may not be able to control the west at all, not only California.

Yes!

Li Mengyang immediately understood, because the world-famous Central Railway has not yet been completed, and Jules Farna has not yet had any inspiration to write the "Eighty Days of the Universal World"!

This, this, this......

I don't know why, Li Mengyang came up with an extremely bold idea at this time, but this idea was so bold that he couldn't believe that it could really be realized.

"I've heard that guy named John Neeley Johnson was the governor of California, and he's a member of the party who doesn't know anything, and it looks like you've suffered a lot from him, hahaha......"

In the face of the ridicule of the big man Bill, Li Mengyang and they couldn't say anything, because in fact, they didn't suffer much. So, John Neeley Johnson is really a governor?

So is there a more powerful exclusion bill?

Li Mengyang's heart was a little worried, especially when he thought of Huang Rong's sister.

……

"Ahh At this time, Huang Rong, who was in San Francisco, sneezed, and she said in her heart, "Is someone talking about her?" ’

However, at this time, a very well-dressed white gentleman walked into the Golden Scale Pavilion, and this person walked directly in front of Huang Rong, and what he said was very interesting.

"Beautiful lady, I'm here to pay off my debts!"

If the big man Bill could see him at this time, he would definitely know, isn't this guy Leland Stanford?!
