Chapter 48 Poaching the Corner (1)

In June 1862, the Civil War had been going on in the United States for two years. What is the root of this war? If the Americans answered, the answer must be for freedom and to liberate black people. The American people did not hesitate to fight a friend, and the north and the south fought a friendship.

The United States is an immigrant country, with a short history, democracy, freedom, equality, and fraternity. This is what the US government talks about all day long, but in fact, the United States itself is a combination of interests. When the British and the French competed for the boss in the Americas, the local bosses saw that the British spoke English and the protection fees were still reasonable, so they helped the British boss to drive away the French. But when there was only one boss in the UK, the protection fees were harsh, which aroused dissatisfaction among the local bosses, so they elected Washington to be the boss of the local immigrants, and they rushed out the British.

Not to mention World War II, when the Chinese were fighting with backward weapons against the Japanese, the United States was selling their scrap iron and oil to the Japanese. Even his old friend, Britain, did not let it go, and used eliminated warships to exchange for British bases for foreign bases. Americans should not be too skilled in this kind of business that can take advantage of the situation and robbery. If the Japanese had not been forced to enter the water later and sent a fleet to attack Pearl Harbor, the Americans suffered losses and retaliated, then I really don’t know which Americans would have participated in the war in the year of the monkey and horses.

The Civil War seemed to be a civil war on the surface, but in fact it was a product of irreconcilable conflicts of interest. At that time, the United States was engaged in capitalism in the north and slavery in the south. For their own interests, the north and the south had been fighting each other and not giving in to each other. In 1860, Lincoln, who represented the north, became president, and the south quit, and immediately rebelled and wanted to leave the Federation.

How could a duck that is at the mouth let it fly away? The south wants independence, and of course the north will not agree. Lincoln finally got a president to do it. After such a fuss in the south, the country was half missing. What is the meaning of the president? No, pk, you must pk. So both sides fought. At the beginning, Lincoln kindly thought about liberating black slaves, and temporarily got 70,000 to 80,000 volunteer soldiers to fight, but the south was so bad that it almost lost Washington. Lincoln, who was anxious to jump over the wall, took out his trump card and released the "Proclamation on Liberating Black Slaves". This move was indeed powerful. Petofi had a poem saying: "The city of life is precious, and love is higher. If it is for freedom, both can be abandoned." There are four million black slaves in the south. How could these black slaves not desperately support Lincoln for freedom? With the support of black slaves, the north stabilized its position.

Just when the American people were busy praising each other, Min Hong came to the United States and found a member of Yang Yi's early sending of the Jewish Smith Smith Smith is now a well-known figure in the northern part of the United States. He started by reselling "beautiful people" cosmetics. With Yang Yi's financial aid, the Jews themselves were born to make money. Smith's business was a booming news, buying houses and land, running companies and factories, and setting up a fleet. Smith knew clearly that he could have today because he had relied on Yang Yi's big tree. If it weren't for Yang Yi's help, Smith might have jumped into the Huangpu River with the kerosene lamps.

When Smith returned to the United States, his first task was to poach talents. China now has construction, and what he lacks is talent. Yang Yi has something to say, as long as he is skilled or educated, he needs it. Smith has set up talent recruitment offices in several major cities in the north and offered preferential conditions. As long as he is willing to work in China, his salary will be high. Although he has worked several recruitment offices, it seems that the results are not good. The arduous Americans think that they are living a good life now and there is no need to go to the unknown and distant China. Smith's recruitment office has been working for almost half a year, but he hasn't recruited a few talents, but there are many technical workers who are not good at working in China. Smith signed a peace agreement with them and threw them on a ship and sent them to China.

Since the American people started to do a big internal PK and staged a full martial arts campaign, the business of Smith's recruitment office has begun to become more and more prosperous. Speaking of which, I really have to thank the slave owners in the south. If they hadn't hit the gate of Washington in one breath, everyone in the north would be in danger and insecure, and few people would want to go to China. Now, the people in the north are in a state of turmoil, and there are many people who want to run away. Smith took the opportunity to vigorously promote that China is good, there is no war, and the salary is high. The girls there are more skins than silk, and gold is everywhere, so fools are not moved. Even if they are moved, they really have to make up their minds, and it is really difficult to make up their minds. Therefore, the recruitment office still has many people to see, ask, and very few people signing contracts. However, Smith had a way to circle a place, build a platform, and find a few beautiful women to hand over the flyer. He should take charge of himself and answer the questions of the consultant.

"Who, don't you believe it? If you don't believe it, look at me, can you do it? I'm back from China. Now my boss in China is here to recruit people. There are rare opportunities. If you have a lot of gold and silver, I'll tell you that the currency used by Chinese people is silver. Do you think you have money?" Smith is very skilled in playing the trick of seducing people. How did others deceive him at the beginning? Now he will follow the rules. But his starting point is not bad.

Someone was already moved by Smith's publicity. At this time, someone stood up.

"Wow, can you really make a lot of money with such good conditions?" asked the person.

"Of course, you can make a lot of money." Smith answered affirmatively.

"Okay, I'll go and get a peace agreement." So the person who came to sign the contract. After signing the contract, Smith immediately took out two hundred dollars and handed it to the person, "Brother, this is the settlement fee, you can take it first."

Smith's move was too ruthless. When he saw money on the spot, what else was more attractive than US dollars. With the first one, the others began to get ready. At this time, someone shouted: "Damn, I'm a bachelor, I'm in my thirties. My wife hasn't gotten one yet. I'll go to China to find one. I've signed up again. I've signed up again and paid for it. At this moment, the onlookers were completely shaken, and someone in the crowd shouted: "I'll go too, I'll go too." As a result, the registration started just by watching, and it turned into a scene of enthusiastic people. Needless to say, Smith's recruitment plan was completed beautifully.

When Smith returned home in the evening, there were already a few gangsters waiting there at home.

"You did a good job today. If you change your place tomorrow, it's still the same method and the same rule, you can only use ten dollars per person every day."

When Min Hong arrived in the United States, it happened to be the time when Smith was having fun. After the special task was held, Min Hong and Smith Street were connected, they immediately rushed to Detroit without stopping. Yang Yi asked him to find someone, and he was a child only fifteen years old. On the train from Port Huron to Michigan and Detroit, this is the territory where Edison makes a living. In the future, he will try to make money. Edison sells newspapers and candies on this train. If the war begins, he simply runs a tabloid on the train. After two years, he actually earns more than a thousand dollars.

When Min Hong met Edison, he didn't understand why Yang Yi asked him to come to this foreign country specifically, with the purpose of finding such a child, and a thin child.

"You are Edison?" Min Hong asked politely

"Yes, sir, do you need to read the newspaper?" Edison began to sell tabloids he printed with mimeographers again.

"You and you like to do experiments?"

"Yes, sir, how could you know these?" Edison was surprised and asked Min Hong. He asked Min Hong. He didn't know who to ask. Yang Yi just asked him to come to this train and asked these two questions after finding Edison. Only then did he know that Edison likes to do experiments, but he really didn't know how Yang Yi, who is far away in China, knew these. Min Hong, who had a lot of question marks, decided to ask Yang Yi carefully after returning to China, how did he know this child? Now, I'd better find a way to trick Edison into China first.

"This is the thing. I have a laboratory in China. I heard that you like to do experiments and inventions. Are you interested in going to China? Do whatever you want to do there." Min Hong began to seduce Edison with Yang Yi's words.

"Is that so? Sir, I heard it right? Is this really something like this?" Yang Yishu Min Hong's words were pointed at Edison's fatal hole, but Edison also did not believe that pie would fall from the sky. Although things were good, we still had to ask clearly.

"But sir, you asked me to go to China for experiments. What benefits can you get?" What benefits can you get? Only Yang Yi knows best. There are too many benefits. There are not too many improvements in telegraph machines, practical incandescent light bulbs, telephones, phonographs, and Edison's inventions.

"Well, you asked this question well. Of course we can't help you for nothing. Of course there are conditions."

"What are the conditions you said?" Edison was a little anxious, afraid that he would not be able to do the conditions offered by Min Hong.

"Our conditions are very simple. All your inventions and patents are shared with my laboratory. That is to say, everyone will share the benefits of the invention products, you three and seven." On the surface, it seems that Edison should have made a profit by signing such a peace agreement with this half-aged child, but in fact, Yang Yi is sure to make a profit with many inventions after Edison's date. But I don't know if Edison, who has changed his environment, can still make those inventions. However, Yang Yi is confident that under his guidance, Edison will still become one of the greatest inventors in history, but in the future Edison's nationality will be from China.

"Huh? So?" Edison's little head thought for a while before answering: "We have made a deal, please take care of it in the future." In fact, Edison also had a conflict with him. He didn't know where China is, but when he thought of those charming experiments, the little guy couldn't resist.

After getting it done, the job was done, and Edison, who was underage, was kidnapped.

For safety reasons, Min Hong also quit his job with Edison himself and returned home with Edison. As for the reason that Min Hong was following Edison, it would be better to say that he was escorting Edison. Although this little guy agreed to come to China, it would not be fun if he regretted it halfway. Edison was a person who Yang Yiqian advised and told him to twist it back.

The "Chinese Beauty" was a large passenger ship launched in New York. This was customized by Smith for a large price, with the purpose of using it to send people to China. Min Hong can be said to have come and go in a hurry, and with more than 500 talents deceived by Edison and Smith, Min Hong embarked on the journey back to China.

During the American War, Smith made great contributions to China's development. Over the past few years, Smith coaxed and deceived and sent more than 15,000 people to China. These talents covered all walks of life. Although Yang Yi also paid a lot of money for this, compared with talents, developing China needs more talents.

Europe, Sir Hoffman was also very busy after returning to Europe. It was an old business to get people in China. With his reputation, it was not very difficult to deceive a few people into China. However, Yang Yi wanted to make him work hard this time. Hoffman also had a special identity when he came back this time, that is, Hoffman was already the director of China's National Talent Development Committee, and his level was equivalent to that of China's first-class member. Hoffman's title is not fake. Yang Yi sent him a letter of appointment, and the letter of appointment was also covered with the jade seal of the Chinese emperor, which undoubtedly greatly increased Hoffman's value.

The main prey of Hoffman's return this time was his own compatriot - Otto. 1862 was an unlucky year for Otto. The internal combustion engine developed by the Prussian Patent Office rejected his application because it was not reliable enough. For this experiment, Otto not only lost money to his wife, but also his mother's coffin Bente was caught, and the result was a sacrificial joy. Otto, who was in poverty, felt a little desperate. At this moment, the savior appeared and Sir Hoffman appeared.

, found Otto who was drunk in a tavern. Hoffman used Yang Yi's tricks to clean up his own tricks, found the highest-end hotel, settled Otto down, and after Otto woke up, he immediately revealed his identity, and took out the appointment letter with the jade seal of the Chinese emperor, trying his best to invite Otto to China, and ensure that Otto would definitely get the best treatment in China and get the best experimental environment. Of course, if Otto wanted to take my mother to China, Hoffman also welcomed the Chinese government on behalf of the Chinese government.

Although Otto was very grateful for Hoffman's invitation, he did not agree. The reason was very simple. In the backward place in China, it was difficult to find someone to study together, let alone find a good mentor to continue his studies. In history, Otto only created the internal combustion engine after receiving theoretical guidance from Rufen, a famous German professor of mechanics.

The temptation was not enough, Hoffman took out a letter. Who knew that after Otto read the letter, he immediately became excited and strongly demanded to go to China immediately to meet the boss who wrote the letter.
