throughout the event

The heaviest loss was suffered by Sir Dennis, whose only son was also buried in the shootout.

He was the most prominent and the most rampant of the gold mine owners, and it was inconceivable that murderous bandits like "Jackwolf" Bilken appeared in the mines without Sir Dennis's tacit approval.

In the aftermath of the massacre, the entire Palmer Valley gold mine owners were shocked and revered.

A few days after that

Unlike the Chinese in the excitement of Chinatown, all the gold mines kept a low profile, and no white gold prospectors were allowed to bully the Chinese, or even acquiesce to the Chinese carrying guns into the mines.

In recent days, the Hongmen forces have skyrocketed, with more than 26,000 people in Queensland, accounting for almost the vast majority of free workers, and they can ignore the gold mines' policy of discriminating against Chinese workers.

As long as the white gold diggers carry guns, the Hongmen brothers also carry guns, who is afraid of whom in the confrontation?

The situation of Chinese laborers in the gold fields immediately improved, just like the mountain on their shoulders was gone, reminiscing about the past and the present, which made people feel emotional.

This also led to a sharp increase in the number of gold diggers in the Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple Seven Dragons Brigade under the command of Hongmen, and the strength rose again.

The city of Brisbane tossed around with great fanfare, and finally announced that the culprit of the bloody massacre in the gold fields was found to be the culprit of the "wolf" Bilken, who had teamed up to commit the crime, doubling the reward to £300 and making him wanted by the state.

These vicious bandits don't worry about having more lice, and they don't care about carrying an extra black pot.

The case spread through the local newspapers, and the resounding reputation of "Wild Wolf" Bilken was known from North America to Europe, and he was known as the murderous maniac of the century.

"Wild Wolf" Bilken was triumphant about this, and acted more unscrupulously, which is a later story.

April 10, Port of Brisbane

The spring sun shines warmly on the body, like the gentle fingers of a lover, which makes people intoxicated.

The German cruise ship "Nordic Robbers" docked at the port of Brisbane, with a slender hull and a high bow, this is a steam-powered 6,500-ton fast cruise ship, which is expected to take 19 days across the ocean to finally arrive at the port of Auckland, the western port of the United States.

on the pier

Ninety-nine Red River Valley personnel who went to Auckland looked sleek and neat, all dressed in clean and fresh short-haired suits, wearing light gray suits and carrying large packages ready to board the ship.

Hundreds of Hongmen brothers came to the dock to see them off, and their arrival caused a commotion, and the white people on the dock who saw them off dodged away as if they were fleeing the plague, unwilling to cause trouble.

Originally, there were more than a dozen RCMP officers on the dock to maintain order, but they disappeared in a blink of an eye, and they didn't know where to hide.

The bloody and brutal scene a few days ago not only shocked the owners of the large and small gold mines along the Palmer River, but also shocked all the white communities in Brisbane, including the RCMP, who have always flaunted their might, and their behavior has been much more restrained.

The Chinese team leader Fan Asheng and the deputy team leader Jia Donghe frequently saluted and said goodbye to the bigwigs who saw them off at each hall.

"I wish Brother Sheng a smooth journey and return as soon as possible, don't let the mountain lord and me and other brothers worry."

"Thank you, thank you Jiyan."

"Brother Sheng, this time I will bring a few beautiful girls back when I have the opportunity to go to North America, my brother is looking forward to it!"

"Don't talk about it, you and my brother know it."

"Hahahaha...... Brother Sheng, don't forget me, I will definitely honor you a lot when I come back. ”

"Stop, stop, Lao Tzu went to the border of North America, but he didn't pimp for you, first of all, you must do a good job of the things that the big dragon head explained, otherwise the above will blame it, my little shoulder can't bear it, you all know that the big dragon head has always rubbed sand in his eyes, so don't hurt me."

"I know, I know, brothers, if you have time to do things, you can do it."

"What a mess, I don't want to tell you, the boat will start in a while, Donghe will arrange for the brothers to get on the boat first, and I will go right away after dealing with these gentlemen."

"Got it, Brother Sheng."

Under the leadership of Jia Donghe, the Hongmen brothers who went to North America lined up to board the boat in turn, and the solemn procession contained an invisible momentum, which made people look sideways.

After the guests boarded the ship, the Viking cruise ship raised the suspension bridge and let out a long whistle to officially set sail.

Thick black smoke rose from the huge chimney of the cruise ship, the propeller stirred the water splash at the stern, and the huge hull of the cruise ship moved, and the stern was the first to leave the dock and throw into the sea, the bow still held by two thick cables.

The sailors on the cruise ship gathered at the bow to operate the cables, and at the command of the boatswain, they took turns releasing the cables, and the huge cruise ship flung sideways and backwards stretched the bow cables straight and away from the dock as the cables were released.

When the cruise ship was thrown back at an angle of nearly 60 degrees to the pier, the ship gave a signal, and the sailors on the pier hurriedly untied the cable head.

The inertia of the freed cruise ship slid back more than 1,000 meters, the black smoke of the steam engine suddenly increased, and the water splashed violently in the stern, drawing a large circle on the sea surface and leaving.

The next stop is North America on the other side of the Atlantic

After leaving the dock, the Viking sailed at full speed into the deep blue, plowing a snow-white track on the rippling blue sea, heading for the depths of the ocean to the northeast.

Fan Asheng and Jia Donghe stood side by side at the front of the second deck, they booked a second-class ticket, a room for two people, far better than the third-class cabins under his staff, and there was even a bedside table in the narrow aisle.

The sky is blue and high, and there are white clouds.

Fan Ah Sheng's mood is very comfortable and full of ambition, which is completely different from the nervous mood he had when he first set foot on the Australian mainland more than eight months ago.

This trip shouldered a heavy responsibility, and took nearly 100 subordinates to the North American continent, how high-spirited was it?

"Brother Donghe, you and my brother went to the United States this time, in fact, most of the heavy responsibility is on your shoulders, my ability is limited, I can only help you run the logistics, I am really ashamed!"

"Brother Sheng, don't say that, Donghe is terrified."

"This is not a little false, you know that I have not been in Australia for a long time, and I can only speak some simple words in English conversation, and I can't understand what the ghost guy says, and the heavy responsibility of negotiating with Hills and Foreign Bank falls on you, this is a big deal of more than 60,000 pounds, and it is a matter of success or failure, and I really have no bottom in my heart! I couldn't sleep all night in the past few days. ”

"Don't hide it from my brother, I'm also the first time that a big girl has been on a sedan chair, and I can't sleep because I can't eat well, for fear of living up to the high hopes of the big dragon!"

The two looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.

The forces in the Red River Valley have developed extremely rapidly, and under Li Fushou's strong supervision, many times they can only bite the bullet.

From not coming to the meeting, from meeting to familiarity, from familiarity to running freely, this is a process, and it is inevitable to run in the stage of stiff running-in.

They are both apprehensive and full of pride, which is full of infinite confidence in the future of the Red River Valley, and they feel that it is unique to follow the head of the big dragon.

In this way, the people's hearts unconsciously converged, and bit by bit nourished into prestige and dependence, becoming the core backbone of the forces in the Red River Valley.

"What's so happy? I'll hear it. ”

A tall young man walked from behind, wearing a bowler hat on his head and a precious rosewood cane in his hand, walking calmly and elegantly, it was Li Fushou.

The two people in front of them turned their heads and couldn't help but be stunned, Fan Asheng replied casually; "Young master, we are afraid of this trip to North America...... Oh, my God! ”

Only then did Fan Asheng react and jumped up in shock.

How could the young master be on a cruise ship?

This is the "Viking" heading to North America, is it possible to turn around and go back to send the young master ashore?

Jia Donghe was also shocked, but his performance was not so exaggerated, and the big dragon head didn't reveal any words before, and everyone really kept it a secret.

"Don't panic, don't you two have a bottom in your heart, I will personally sit in charge of this trip to North America and cheer you up." Li Fushou explained with a smile.

"Young master, don't play with us, we can't afford to play." Fan Asheng's face turned pale because of the fear of this moment.

"Hey, hey, hey...... I said that I was bored in the Red River Valley ranch, and I thought of North America to relax, do you believe it or not? ”

Fan Asheng and Jia Donghe shook their heads at the same time, like rattles, and the meaning revealed in their eyes was the same.

Big guy, I don't read much, so don't play with me.

Li Fushou walked to the railing, leaned over to look at the magnificent blue sea, and said in an almost pilgrimage-like tone; "It's so beautiful, this vast ocean contains infinite treasures, and it also contains infinite opportunities, waiting for us to explore and explore, how can we know the vastness of the world and the magnificence of the ocean without experiencing it ourselves?"

Speaking of which

He looked back at the two men, and when he saw the blank look in their eyes, he couldn't help but chuckle; "Don't be stunned, let's go to the cabin for a small meeting, there are a lot of things to do on this trip to North America, you will definitely be busy and happy."

Deluxe first class on the third floor of the cruise

Compared to the second class, it is simply incomparable, with a beautifully decorated cabin, with a bathroom and a small conference hall, which can barely seat 4 people, which is rare on a cruise ship where every inch of land is expensive.

The master bedroom is covered with embroidered silk sheets and several pots of tulips that are in full bloom with a faint fragrance.

Such a luxurious bedroom, which costs £266 for a ferry ticket, is only affordable for the upper class aristocrats and celebrities, and is a manifestation of noble status.

The front end of the third deck of the cruise ship is the wheelhouse and captain's room, which are free of idlers, and the rear end is the luxury first-class cabin, which has only a dozen rooms.

During transoceanic voyages

According to the custom, the captain of the cruise ship will entertain the distinguished guests of the first class, warmly welcome the guests on the company's transoceanic cruises, and promise to provide distinguished and thoughtful service, and welcome to take the cloud again......
