"Whether they are relatives or not is not important at all!"
Standing on the deck of the "Flying Dragon", Li Ziqin held a cigarette between his fingers and sneered softly.
"The most important thing is an excuse. We were either deceived by foreigners or trafficked to Peru. What kind of life did we live? We are neither humans nor ghosts. Only with an excuse can we step in to rescue those compatriots. Lord's
The meaning is very clear, rescue the people and take them to Nanhua!"
Li Ziqin was born as a Chinese laborer on the Qincha Islands. Unlike the others, he was originally a scholar who went to the provincial capital to take the exam. But who would have thought that he would be trafficked by traffickers and sold to a piglet house, where he was sold as a piglet?
He arrived in Peru, and since then he has been digging up bird droppings on the island day and night, living a life worse than death. He almost lost his life countless times. If it had not been for the rescue by the people sent by the lord later, I am afraid he would have died among the birds.
Shit Island.
Now, given the opportunity to rescue those compatriots once and for all, how could he miss this opportunity?
"But what if the Peruvians don't want to?"
In fact, Li Xuelin didn't need to ask this question at all. Of course he knew what the answer was. If they don't want to, then let them do!
Sometimes, the answer is so simple!
"They...do they have a choice now?"
Li Ziqin sneered.
"You know, this world relies on strength. Otherwise, Chief Li would think that those white people would be so polite to us!"
…
As a special envoy, Mario once again came to the office of Foreign Minister Juan. As usual, after Mario entered the room, Juan warmly welcomed him, but his expression soon became a little stiff.
.
"You mean the indentured laborers in China?"
Juan's reflex arc couldn't even react. Why did the other party mention this matter? What did those Chinese workers have to do with the American company?
If I remember correctly, America Company also seems to use a large number of Chinese workers! They even introduced hundreds of thousands of Chinese workers!
"Yes, as a special envoy, I have the responsibility to protect the legitimate rights and interests of immigrants from being divided. However, after arriving in Lima, some Chinese immigrants submitted reports claiming that their relatives were kidnapped by unscrupulous businessmen and trafficked to Peru as "indentured laborers."
, Therefore, I think it is my responsibility to understand this matter and ask your country to investigate this matter. Of course, Mr. Minister, we fully respect the laws of your country, but I think we must understand the relevant situation. For our sake
friendship between."
Juan felt very surprised, because the other party would actually make such a request at this time, and it was for the sake of the Chinese. However, thinking that this company has a large number of Chinese immigrants, and even their company boss is Chinese, Juan seemed
He understood it and immediately denied it.
"Of course, nothing is more important than the friendship between us, but, Mr. Special Envoy, I can guarantee that all indentured laborers are legally introduced according to the contract, and there is absolutely no deception!"
"However, Your Excellency, the Minister clearly mentioned the name of the other party in the petition, involving hundreds of people. They were all kidnapped or deceived. I have here the letters of help they forwarded. Not only that, they also suffered all kinds of things.
Abuse, Your Excellency Minister."
"Sir, this is impossible!"
Juan emphasized again.
"Letter of distress? Where are they?"
"The mines of Chincha Islands."
"Chincha Islands?"
Juan shrugged.
"I'm sorry, the place is now under Spanish occupation. It's difficult for me to confirm this. And even if you conduct an investigation, you will find that the so-called distress letter is just a lie, and the so-called abuse is also a lie.
Fabricated rumors. If you don’t believe it, you can go to the island to investigate!”
Go to the island to investigate!
As a special envoy, Mario's face looked a little ugly. He did not expect that the negotiation would lead to this result.
He had expected the categorical denial, but he did not expect that the other party would actually kick the ball and go to the island to investigate. Now the Chincha Islands are under the occupation of the Spanish.
Taking a deep breath, Mario stood up and said.
"In that case, let's go to the island to investigate! I think the final investigation results will prove whether what they said is a rumor!"
What!
Now it was Juan's turn to be dumbfounded. Will they really go to the island to investigate? Probably not!
The Spaniards probably wouldn't let them go to the island!
…
For hundreds of thousands of years, millions of seabirds have been hovering and living near the Chincha Islands. Often when a bird takes off, it brings a large area with it. It really makes people understand what it means to block out the sky and the sun, and when the bird falls, it will
It is so tight that one can hardly see the color of the ground.
This archipelago is less than 20 kilometers away from the Peruvian mainland. Although it does not look very impressive, it is known as the "Cows of Peru". As the most important guano producing area in the world, countless seabirds have grown up in the past few years.
Over millions of years, a layer of excrement tens of meters thick has been left on the island. Although the stench emitted from the island makes it difficult to get close to it, guano is rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other elements, making it a rare natural fertilizer.
Since more than 20 years ago, Europeans have used guano here as fertilizer to increase crop yields. In the past few decades, guano mining in the Chincha Islands has long become the mainstay of Peru's economy, and even
The sales of bird poop once accounted for more than 70% of Peru's fiscal revenue.
Also because the guano on the islands is extremely important to the Peruvian government, more than three months ago, in order to force the Peruvian government to make concessions, the Spanish fleet invaded and occupied these islands, not only arresting Peruvian officials on the ship, but also dispatched 400 naval personnel.
Marines raised the Spanish flag on the islands. For the Spaniards, these islands are important negotiation tools.
Of course, it would be even better if we could seize this archipelago from Peru. But this is just a thought. After all, everyone knows that it is impossible for the Peruvians to cede this treasure house.
Under the scorching sun, the Marines on board the "White Queen" moored in Pisco Bay yawned lazily due to the sun. Although the warship was hundreds of meters away from the island, the stench still lingered in the sky.
I am blown by the sea breeze from time to time.
This tastes super strong!
It will make people stop snoring and falling asleep immediately.
"damn it……"
Suddenly, a sailor cursed fiercely, "guano". The bird droppings falling from the sky hit him directly in the face. He should have been used to this. After all, it was everywhere on the deck, sails and masts.
It's bird droppings.
Before he could wipe the bird droppings off his face, a cry of surprise suddenly came from the observation deck.
"Unidentified fleet discovered in the north!"
