Most of the San Francisco Chinese gather in the Yellbabuena neighborhood, and have gradually formed the prototype of Chinatown.

For living areas like commercial pedestrian streets, the streets that can accommodate two carriages side by side are not narrow now. On both sides of the street, there are butchers, vegetable shops, fish stalls, etc. run by Chinese people. The silk shops are more luxurious. From a distance, you can see shiny silks everywhere, high shelves like cabinets, and lattices are filled with silk. The shopkeepers often have to set up ladders to get to the top of the goods.

Today is also a happy day for Hongmen Hall to be renamed the Chinese Association. The Chinese Consul in San Francisco Zheng Zaoru personally came to congratulate and cut the ribbon, which added a bit of official color to this grand ceremony. There is no doubt that the Chinese in San Francisco are gradually getting rid of the state of rootless wanderers.

In fact, in the late Qing Dynasty, when the anti-Chinese trend emerged in the United States, Mexico, Cuba and other places, the late Qing government responded very fiercely, and even sent warships to Mexico to protect the overseas Chinese, forcing the Mexican government to surrender and pay compensation.

In the late Qing Dynasty, hardliners never had a disadvantage. However, although most hardliners had the mentality of a superior country, they did not have the knowledge of a superior country. Therefore, in the late Qing Dynasty, any absurd things could happen in decades, such as declaring war on all countries at the same time, and fighting the whole world with the power of a country, creating a powerful record that will probably never be broken since the birth of mankind.

After the founding of the New Dynasty, overseas expatriates were also one of Ye Zhao’s most concerned issues.

But now walking on Chinatown, Ye Zhao is not very happy. Last night, he dreamed of two eagles catching white robe, and always felt that this dream was not auspicious.

If used in the rise and fall of dynasties, the ancient strange beast Bai Zi is homophonic with Ye, does it refer to himself? Did the double eagles invisibly lay hidden dangers? The faces of powerful ministers flashed through Ye Zhao's mind, but there was no clue.

And if this dream is used to interpret the current political situation in the world, does it mean that conspiracies or alliances against the Chinese are gradually forming?

In short, this is not a pleasant dream, and it also makes Ye Zhao feel uncomfortable.

Beside Ye Zhao, Christina elegantly held a flower umbrella, wore a slightly exaggerated beautiful top hat inlaid with parrot feathers, and a sexy long red skirt, which was actually a puffy skirt simplified. The typical image of a noble lady in the palace, elegant, noble, sexy and cold.

After the dance last night, Christina returned to the clinic because the rich woman who had cataract surgery had already made an appointment to take off her eye mask. The operation was very successful and the rich woman did not feel any discomfort. So after dealing with several patients this morning, Christina boarded the carriage to the Chinese Consulate.

The news of Ye Zhao's visit to the United States has not been officially made public. Although some powerful and powerful politicians who participated in the dance will inevitably leak the news to the outside world, it obviously has no impact on Christina's clinic and Chinatown.

However, in Chinatown, the white policemen patrolling had several more shifts than before, and they maintained public order for the first time. The San Francisco police arrested the thief who stole overseas Chinese property in Chinatown for the first time.

Ye Zhao suddenly saw the Yunlin Temple in front of him. At the end of last year, Chinese merchants and local overseas Chinese built to worship the Empress of the Empress of the Heavenly Empress, which was actually the Mazu Temple on the coast of the Central Plains. From the Song Dynasty to the previous dynasty, a total of fourteen emperors granted him thirty-six times, including the titles from the wife to the concubine, the Tianfei, and then to the Empress of the Empress of the previous dynasty. The empress was established. The emperor appointed Lin Moniang as "the Holy Mother of Protecting the Country and the People's Wonderful Spirits and the Sea and the Ocean and the Anlan", and included it in the royal sacrificial ceremony for the Spring and Autumn Festival.

The Yunlin Temple in San Francisco is not wide and is parallel to the merchants next to it. It lacks the solemnity of the temple and a bit more friendly.

At the Mulan Temple Gate, there was a monk setting up a stall. Ye Zhao walked over, shook his fan, sat at the divination table, and asked, "Can you interpret dreams?"

Xiangshi had a long face, with black moles and hair on his cheeks. When he saw Ye Zhao, a noble-looking man, and a bright and beautiful Christina, his eyes flashed with joy, but his eyes were squinted with a deep face, and said lightly: "The golden mouth is broken, and the old man is not deceived! I can interpret the dream and face him, and I know the magical mechanism."

His little move could not escape Ye Zhao's eyes. Ye Zhao couldn't help but be disappointed, and met the doctor in the martial arts world again. But since he came, he would be at peace. Let's hear what he said. He shook the fan and said, "Two tigers compete for white robe, don't know what to do?"

The Xiangshi said calmly: "Ask marriage? Good fortune or wealth?"

Ye Zhao said: "What if it is a military and national affairs?"

The Xiangshi was stunned, his little eyes slowly opened, looked at Ye Zhao up and down, and then he took out the turtle shell and copper coins, shook and threw them seriously. Finally, the copper coins fell on the table. The Xiangshi shook his head and explained, "Shaoyin Shaoyang" and "The total number of yang is nine, which is Laoyang". After muttering for a long time, he thought about the hexagram for a while, and then said to Ye Zhao: "This dream contains good luck in the evil, and there is bad luck in the good fortune, which is a situation of two tigers fighting. If the young master asks about the military and country, the so-called two tigers fighting will inevitably have one injury, and Bai Zi will definitely turn bad luck into good fortune."

Ye Zhao frowned slightly when he heard "there is good luck and good luck in the bad luck" and listened patiently. He heard the monk saying that Bai Wu "turned bad luck into good luck", so he nodded. The servant behind him handed over two silver dollars. No matter what, he heard auspicious words.

Ye Zhao and others set off in the midst of gratitude for the olympics. When they turned to see Christina looking at him curiously, Ye Zhao smiled and said, "I have had a dream. We oriental people have the custom of interpreting dreams. In fact, it is often considered an emotional comfort. Dreams are often closely related to the real world. There is something to think about on a day and a night to dream."

Christina suddenly realized and said, "You had a bad dream last night? You are in a bad mood, are you?"

Surprised by Christina's sensitivity, Ye Zhao smiled and said, "It's not bad. Let's go and have a meal. Are you going to have a good day? I'll celebrate you and congratulate you on your success in your first cataract surgery."

At the intersection of the Chinese Street, there is a very large Chinese restaurant. As soon as you enter the store, the atmosphere of ancient oriental charm is coming. The octagonal palace lanterns, flower-cut windows, screens, wood carving cabinets, Chinese characters couplets, and round tables and square stools are also extremely clean and tidy.

Ye Zhao and Christina sat down next to the wooden cabinet with flower-carved flowers. Fifteen guards sat on the left and right tables.

Nowadays, in San Francisco, especially in Chinatown, a large group of people gathered together to travel. However, Ye Zhao and his party were gorgeously dressed and obviously had a difference between master and servant. In addition, the male owner and Christina's stunning blonde expression was intimate, which was naturally eye-catching.

Ye Zhao ordered a few side dishes, including "crunchy fried tenderloin" and "oyster custard" for Christina. Even if she is used to Western cuisine, these dishes are in line with her appetite.

In fact, what Westerners are not used to eating is often the cooking and stir-frying dishes mixed with vegetables and meat.

Because the Chinese restaurant is close to the street, white people often come to taste exotic dishes, so the store has knives and forks, but Christina still asked her to teach her to hold the chopsticks intimately, and she ignored the attention of the customers in the store. She seemed to be a little proud.

When two young white men came in and saw this scene, their faces changed. They sat down at a table by the window and looked at Ye Zhao from time to time.

Before Ye Zhao came to San Francisco, California had already proposed a bill to oppose interracial marriage. Although the main target was black people, Chinese people inevitably became members of the interracial race. The white race organization, the KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

Seeing the meat in Christina's middle chopsticks finally fell on the table under her clumsy movements, Ye Zhao laughed and said, "You should use a fork to waste food." As he said that, he stretched out the chopsticks to pick up a piece of meat and sent it to her plate, saying, "This is the politeness of us orientals, only once."

Christina's deep blue eyes flashed and she shrugged, "I heard that Orientals will deliver food to their lovers' mouths."

Ye Zhao smiled slightly: "I don't have this kind of habit."

After talking and laughing, Ye Zhao asked Christina how the Chinese food tasted, and Christina kept saying it was delicious.

When leaving the restaurant, the two young white men followed a few steps, but when they saw that the Chinese were in great power, they looked at each other and had to return dejectedly.

Sitting in the carriage of a European-style closed carriage, Ye Zhao asked Christina with a smile: "Have you heard of the Three Klans?"

Christina shook her head blankly and asked, "What is it?"

Ye Zhaoxin said that this organization initiated by soldiers of the Southern Federation seems to be not well-known now. In fact, except for China, which has a large tolerant China, entering modern society, any population that considers itself excellent has racist organizations, including white organizations, Muslim organizations, Japanese warrior organizations, etc. Now, in China, it has also given racists a soil for breeding, but we must pay attention to this.

The Han chauvinism in later generations could only shout slogans, and often it was just a helpless act of confusing thoughts. If the current politics were prosperous and the country was prosperous, this nationalist sentiment would not be too extreme. But in this world, racist organizations appeared in China and infiltrated the military, foreign races would really bleed thousands of miles away.

With a carriage dashed, I arrived at the back door of the Public House Tavern. Christina stood up, bent down to hug Ye Zhao and kissed Ye Zhao on the face, saying, "Your Majesty, I'll come out soon."

Ye Zhao was a little distracted today. Maybe it was caused by the spring dream last night? He hugged her slender waist, smelled her fragrance comfortably, and said with a smile: "I'll go with you." Except for the dance, this was the first time Ye Zhao hugged her on his own initiative. Christina was stunned and said softly: "You are not performing now, aren't you?"

Obviously, Christina is very smart. Although she doesn't understand why Ye Zhao wants her to be her dance partner, she also feels that Ye Zhao is not obsessed with her beauty, and she doesn't seem to be interested in her.

Ye Zhao felt ashamed and smiled and said, "It's not a show, I really want to hug you." He got up and took Christina's hands out of the car.

Christina naturally came to visit her mother, Mrs. Fisher.

The Public House Tavern is Hamilton's business. Although Hamilton absconded last night, except for his few confidants, others had no idea that the tavern was still operating inertia.

Since Hamilton and Christina got engaged, Mrs. Fisher Little has become a socialite in the tavern and has more or less left her career as a prostitute. However, if Hamilton's friends or even confidants like Mrs. Fisher Little, she still has to spend the night with these men.

Usually Mrs. Fisher lives in the dormitory on the second floor of the tavern. When entering the backyard, there is a wooden staircase winding up. At the same time, there are chefs, bartenders and other hired workers and family members on the second floor.

Ye Zhao and Christina were in the corridor on the second floor when they heard Mrs. Fisher quarrel with someone. Christina knocked on the door lightly, but the door opened in response.

The messy bedroom has a small space, and the dirty clothes and miscellaneous things thrown around the floor make people unable to get rid of their feet.

The one who quarreled with Mrs. Fisher was a black woman, the bartender's wife, who had a quarrel over trivial matters. When she saw Christina and Ye Zhao enter the house, the black woman spat and moved her stubborn body step by step like a hill.

Mrs. Fisher immediately hugged Christina with tears in her eyes, kissed Christina's cheek, and murmured: "My baby daughter, my baby, you marry Mr. Hamilton quickly and take me out of this haunted place. I can't live such a day!"

But immediately, she shook her head and said, "No, no, don't marry that villain. Go quickly and go to New York, don't worry about me, go to New York to find your dreams. Oh, my poor baby, I have hurt you!"

Christina hugged her gently and patted her back silently. After a while, Mrs. Fisher's excitement slowly calmed down. Then she saw Ye Zhao and asked in surprise: "Baby, who is he?"

Christina smiled and said, "It's my boyfriend, a nobleman from China."

Mrs. Fisher was stunned and said, "Then, you go quickly, don't be seen." Looking at Ye Zhao, although she didn't like the face of the oriental people, there was no doubt that this noble young man was extremely handsome, and he was born with a mysterious and noble temperament. No matter where he was, he stood out like a crane, making people willing to surrender to his feet.

Ye Zhao smiled and said hello, "Hello, Mrs. Fisher." He said again, "Let's go, let's go down. Kris, don't want all the luggage here, and don't want jewelry."

There is no doubt that everything here is a nightmare for the mother and daughter. From then on, the fewer things that can evoke the memories of this dream, the better.

Christina understood what Ye Zhao meant, but her Western thinking was naturally different from Ye Zhao. She hugged Mrs. Fisher hard and said, "Casey, look at everything here and say goodbye to them. In the future, you will never have to come back."

Mrs. Fisher asked blankly, "Why?" her face changed, and she said, "Has that mean villain done something again?"

Christina smiled and said, "I met God. He told me that from now on, I will protect me and love me. That bastard, villain, dare not come and harass the lost lamb protected by God." As he said, his sexy deep ice eyes blinked at Ye Zhao and said, "My Heavenly Father, will you protect me forever?"

Mrs. Fisher said in surprise: "What's wrong with you? Are you sick?" But she was already half-carried and half-pulled by Christina.

After getting on the luxury car with a large number of guards, Mrs. Fisher gradually woke up, but she still couldn't believe it. She held Christina's hand and asked, "Will Mr. Hamilton really not cause trouble for us again?" Seeing Christina nodding affirmatively, she felt relieved, and looked at Ye Zhao again, and asked, "You, are you a Chinese nobleman? Are you not afraid of Mr. Hamilton, are you?"

Ye Zhao smiled and said, "Yeah, I'm not afraid of him."

Mrs. Fisher was surprised and happy, and then asked anxiously: "Will you take us to China?"

Ye Zhao glanced at Christina and said, "You will not be in any danger if you stay in the United States. As for whether to go to China or not, it depends on Miss Christina's decision."

Christina was stunned again, and Bingye stared at Ye Zhao and said, "Are you willing to take me to China?"

Ye Zhao smiled and said, "What's wrong with it? Excellent doctors are the most popular in China from the perspective of introducing talents."

Christina blinked her blue eyes and said, "Although it is not the answer I want to hear, I will follow you wherever you take me."

Ye Zhao shook the folding fan and thought for a while, "Actually, you are good enough to finish medical university in New York. You can take advantage of this time to study Chinese. If you go to China now, it will be very difficult to go to medical university due to language problems and waste a lot of time."

Listening to his mind being full of thinking about the "Talent Quick Plan", Christina looked at Ye Zhao a few times and whispered: "I'll follow your arrangements."

...

After sending Christina and Mrs. Fisher to Fangcaodi Hotel, Ye Zhao's car drove back to the consulate.

In fact, Ye Zhao had bought the Fangcaodi Hotel and was ready to give it to the Fisher couple. The deed was handed over to Christina, a small hotel. It took only a few dollars and was considered a good destination for the upright Fisher couple.

Back at the consulate, there were several telegrams sent from China, from China to the United States. The Shanghai-Nagasaki-Honolulu-San Francisco sea line is still under construction. Now, the domestic newspapers are sent to San Francisco. They have to go to Europe, to London, then to Washington, and then to San Francisco.

So the telegrams Ye Zhao saw now were sent from China a few days ago.

In this telegram, there was a secret telegram that the attendant guard translated according to the code book and submitted to Ye Zhao. This was a telegram sent by the Military Commission, to be precise, by the matchmaker.

The telegram said that the French began to provoke hostility between Cambodians and Vietnamese, especially supporting Vietnamese immigrants to fish in major river basins in Cambodia in exchange for support from some tribes in southern Vietnam, and further infiltrate their influence into southern Vietnam.

The matchmaker asked in the telegram whether to let the Lao Mountain Infantry regiment enter Cambodia and knock on the French.

The Lao Infantry Regiment, which is affiliated with the Imperial Royal Military Commission, is an armed force of 3,000 people formed by the brave mountain people in Laos. Unlike the government forces that China helped build Laos, this infantry regiment belongs to the combat sequence of the Chinese team. All infantry soldiers are also approved to be Chinese nationality. If they get married and have family members, their families can also be Chinese nationality.

And as the name suggests, most of the members of this infantry regiment are mountain people. They travel through mountains, rivers, trees, vines, like walking on flat ground. They are an armed force that can maintain strong attack power in the mountain rain forest.

The infantry regiment has been training for more than a year, and although it also has live ammunition training, the matchmaker obviously hopes to use real battles to test their quality. The French in Cambodia are a good target.

In fact, the French have lost points in diplomacy in recent years. Since the Sino-British-French War, the French Empire has launched a global attack, but Napoleon III's ambitions are no less than his uncle. His strategic vision and political courage are not enough to make plans. He interferes in affairs of various countries everywhere, but often cannot stick to the end. What he does is offend people and not be pleased with.

For example, Napoleon III publicly supported the Polish uprising but did not have substantial military support. The Poles were suppressed, and the French ended up attracting the resentment of the Russians and the disdain of the Poles.

He formed an alliance with the Kingdom of Sardinia in Italy and fought with Austria, but the emperor was afraid of attracting intervention from the German states, so he soon negotiated peace with Austria, which made Italy dissatisfied.
