The Imperial Council ended with a surprise for the navy, and the government was not far behind in the fact that half of the labor force had to be taken to build coastal dikes and irrigation facilities, as well as roads and bridges on a large scale.

Most of the indigenous populations that were hidden on sugar cane plantations and remote pastures would be cleared out and put into forced labor camps, and the Hawaiian Islands would be briefly starved of labor.

The sugar mills around the towns were better, and the sugar plantations needed labor had to come from the newcomers of the Chinese immigrants.

Under the laws of the kingdom, Chinese laborers must be given reasonable remuneration and benefits, which will greatly increase the cost of sugar cane plantations and reduce the huge profits that can be called windfalls.

Whether they employ a few hundred or dozens of Indigenous laborers, these sugarcane plantation owners are all wealthy, and the high price and lucrative nature of Hawaiian's high-quality cane sugar are the root cause of the repeated expansion of local sugar plantations.

The lack of indigenous labor is just a bit more costly.

The crows in the world are as black as the crows, and the Chinese plantation owners are no more noble than the white plantation owners, and as long as there are loopholes to exploit, who doesn't want to make more money?

From start to finish

Richard just watched from the sidelines of the royal government's treatment, but in the end, he was all sent to the hard labor camp according to the usual practice.

Some of them will be transported to Pearl Harbor to develop military fields, build dock forts and port facilities, and leave the rest to the local government to build public infrastructure, mine mines, and do some heavy manual labor.

This can't be blamed on the fact that the policies of the Tang Kingdom are not close to people, and the so-called non-our race will have different hearts.

The indigenous Indians look black haired, black-eyed and yellow-skinned, and they seem to be very similar to the Chinese, but in fact, they are not the same thing at all.

According to historians, the indigenous Indians had the blood and genes of the ancient Mongols, and it is possible that thousands or even tens of thousands of years ago, they arrived in Alaska along the frozen Bering Strait and then migrated all the way east.

So Eskimos and Indians have Mongol blood genes, but can Mongols and Chinese be equated?

Some Chinese in the Tang Kingdom got carried away after eating a full meal for two days, shouting "should rule the world with benevolence and virtue" and "education without class", and took out the same set of rhetoric of Confucian benevolence and righteousness to foreign races.

As everyone knows

The religious beliefs, language and culture, living customs, and everything in the bones of the indigenous people are incompatible with the Chinese people, and blindly advocating "education without class" and "human unity" is actually planting a deep bane for the kingdom.

England ruled Ireland for hundreds of years and did not completely conquer the Irish. The Ottoman Empire has been glorious for more than 500 years, and it has not been able to twist dozens of ethnic groups within its borders into a single rope.

Greeks, Bulgarians, Moldovans, Syrians, Egyptians, Caucasians, Armenians, Slavs, etc., which peoples were tamed?

Proof of history

The measures taken by the Americans in the Americas and the British in Australia, although criticized for a time, have permanently settled the national dispute and can be regarded as a complete solution.

After the Imperial Council

Richard announced a three-day hiatus, and on the morning of the second day, escorted by more than 100 officers and soldiers of the personal guard, he went deep into the Mauna Loa volcano at an altitude of more than 4,200 meters to see the wonders of the eruption up close.

Mauna Loa is the largest active volcano in the world, erupting once every three and a half years on average, and the most recent eruption was just a few days ago.

Everywhere he went, wood and stone burned.

The sight is spectacular as the fiery lava hits the sea, accompanied by hissing steam, and plunges into the clear blue ocean.

How can you not see such a magnificent view?

Standing on the top of the mountain, the air is filled with a strong smell of burning sulfur, and from the top of the ring of Mauna Loa, there is a meandering lava flow that flows slowly downward.

In the face of such a spectacular scene of heaven and earth, the three-headed white tiger that Richard carried with him roared loudly in fear, and he did not dare to move forward in fear.

Richard could only pat them on the head in amusement, told them to wait nearby, and then led everyone forward in great strides, until they were more than 100 meters away from the volcanic rock flow.

"Your Majesty, Weichen begs Your Majesty not to continue to move forward, the front is too dangerous, please take care of your Majesty's dragon body!" Seeing this scene, Lieutenant General Chen Chuan, commander of the Royal Praetorian Guard, couldn't help but say something to dissuade him.

More than 100 meters away, the rocks under your feet are already hot and smoking. Put an egg on top and it will be fried in more than 10 seconds.

The lava river in front of it flowed slowly, and the gray-black surface exploded from time to time, revealing the orange-red hot magma inside, and then under the action of the air, the surface of the magma quickly darkened, and from time to time it made a "crackling" explosion.

Throwing out the extremely hot lava will be a lot of fun if it hits a person.

Lieutenant General Chen Chuan didn't know that the scorching magma in front of him gave Richard an incomparable sense of intimacy, and after completing the "Prestige Task for Tens of Millions of People", he used the gold attribute point to advance to the intermediate Vermilion Bird bloodline, and his physique underwent an inexplicable change, and ordinary flames could no longer hurt Richard.

Richard was convinced; The scorching lava wouldn't hurt him.

"Go over there, there's a mountain rock up over there, and the lava river flows through one side, so it should be safe to stand on it and look at it." Unwilling to be shocked, Richard stretched out his hand and pointed to the tall rock in front of him, and then strode over first.

Lieutenant General Chen Chuan, who followed him, opened his mouth, but did not make a sound, and could only say loudly to the officers on the left and right with a frown; "Hurry up, first go to investigate whether the mountain rock is safe, spread the vigilance left and right, and call the police immediately if there is any abnormality in the volcano, there must be no mistake."

"Yes, sir."

Followed by the masters of the Praetorian Guard, they dispersed after hearing the "uproar", and several fast-moving officers climbed the tall mountain rock like apes, untied the scabbard on their waists and poked hard at the edge of the boulder to see if the knot was strong?

On the boulder

At this time, there is a simple folding table and chairs, and a set of tea cups is placed on the table, brewing green tea with a pleasant aroma.

Richard sat in a chair, leisurely drinking tea, feeling the heavy smell of sulfur accompanied by the steaming heat rushing to his face, and his body and mind were extremely comfortable.

He could feel every cell in his body cheering, like a fish leaping into a pond, greedily absorbing the heat from the volcano.

At this time, the officers and soldiers of the Praetorian Guard, who were standing for 4 weeks, had beads of sweat on their faces, large drops of sweat slid down, and their faces were as hot as shrimps, all of which were reactions to being burned too close to the lava river.

The boulder was located above the side of the lava river, and the steaming heat rushed up, and it felt as if it could burn people's skin, and ordinary people could not stand on their feet for a few minutes.

Richard commanded; "Stand back, you can't afford the lava heat."

"Your Majesty, it's too dangerous here, the son of a daughter can't sit down, let alone Your Majesty's body of ten thousand gold!"

"Okay, don't say more, you can finally stand twenty meters away, let me be quiet."

"Uh...... Wechen obeyed. ”

Lieutenant General Chen Chuan was also sweating profusely, feeling dizzy from the steam, he hurriedly waved his hand and retreated, he really couldn't hold it anymore.

On the contrary, Richard looked calm, he took a deep breath of hot air, his face showed a comfortable look like smoking a big cigarette, and he felt the strong fire element in the air, which was very comfortable.

The elite of the Praetorian Guard, who accompanied the guards, could not do it in the face of this boiling lava heat, and the shift changed every 15 minutes, and everyone who came down was shaky, and their faces were as red as boiled shrimp.

King Richard sat leisurely on the boulder, drank a large pot of three liters of tea, and sat here for more than five hours, until about 4:00 p.m. before getting up and returning, without the slightest discoloration on his face.

In the eyes of the officers and soldiers of the Praetorian Guard, they were already regarded as heavenly beings, and the eyes that looked at His Majesty were different, full of fanatical reverence.

They didn't know that if it weren't for Richard in full view, Richard would really be able to reach out and fish out those hot lava and try to see if he would have been burned.

Fortunately, in order to avoid shocking the world, he finally gave up this impulse.

Everything is too late.

If you really want to test, you can burn red coal or melt molten steel, even if it proves that it can't be scalded?

Hawaii Island covers an area of more than 10,000 square kilometers and has five active volcanoes, among which the occasional eruption of Mauna Loa is a rare wonder in the world, and the continuous volcanic eruptions expand the area of Hawaii Island, which can be called a realistic version of the volcanic eruption museum.

The Chinese immigrants who moved here built a large-scale Zhurong Fire Temple in the valley more than 10 kilometers away from Mauna Loa Volcano, and Richard also donated 10,000 yuan of incense line after worshipping for the new main shrine building, indicating the worship of the "Vermilion Bird" sacred bird.

And personally wrote the plaque of "the ancestor of fire, the beginning of civilization", which also attracted pious pilgrims from all over the world to donate and worship.

As a result, the scale of this Suzaku Temple has expanded again and again, and the temples have become a famous temple with a far-reaching reputation, which is a later story.

More than 10 days later

Richard returned to North America by ship after his tour of Hawaii Province, disembarked in the port of Los Angeles and settled at the palace, where he continued his routine national tour.

He was an idle monarch, and he originally planned to visit Paradise Island, but unfortunately he was strongly dissuaded by the ministers who accompanied him, and in the end he could not make the trip.

It's not a short flight to Paradise Island!

It takes more than 2,800 kilometers south from Los Angeles to Panama, where it is possible to rebuild and re-establish and travel more than 8,300 kilometers west into the Pacific Ocean to finally reach Paradise Island.

This back and forth, plus the time of inspection, can not be done in two months, the two emerging cities of Donggang and New Xi'an on the paradise island, the straight-line distance has reached more than 2,400 kilometers.

If you take the northern route, it will be almost 2,860 kilometers, and if you take the southern route, it will take more than 3,300 kilometers, which is too far away.

Nowadays, it is the period of rapid development of the two cities of Donggang and New Xi'an, the construction boom is in the ascendant, the urban population has skyrocketed, and various problems in development have emerged one after another.

Dong Jie, the minister of the colony, and more than 80 percent of the officials in the colony were all engaged in construction on the paradise island, vowing to build this beautiful island into a paradise on earth.

All things considered

Richard decided to devote two and a half months next year to visit Paradise Island and Panama, which have been developing so much since the opening of the Central Pacific Sea that they must be visited on the spot.
