Many new immigrants are attracted here by Minnesota's traditional emphasis on education and social welfare.≈≥⊥≈≦网≦≡.
Naturally, Han Kongque came here because of this factor, but the biggest reason is that the people here are hospitable. In addition, there are many immigrants here and there are many races, which is suitable for him to fish in troubled waters.
This area has a developed economy, strong educational resources, a very developed population, and a good proportion of various races. Although whites still account for an absolute majority, they are not monolithic.
According to the 2010 census, white people account for 63.8% of Minneapolis (of which non-Hispanic/Hispanic white people account for 60.3%), black people account for 18.6%, Asians account for 5.6%, Native Americans account for 2.0%, and Hispanics account for 2.0%.
/Hispanics (possibly any race before) make up 1o.5%.
6.9% of the residents are under 5 years old, 2o.2% are under 18 years old, and 8.o% are over 65 years old. 49.7% of the residents are women. It can be said that this proportion is very suitable for the Korean Peacock Exhibition.
Compared with the U.S. national average in 2005, Minneapolis has a lower proportion of whites, Hispanics, the elderly and the unemployed, while a higher proportion of people over 18 and those with a college degree or above.
Compared with 2000, the statistics of this metropolitan area tend to be scattered, with a higher proportion of career changes, more young people and white people, and a lower unemployment rate.
Minorities lag behind whites in education, with only 15% of blacks and 13% of Hispanics holding a bachelor's degree, compared with 42% of whites.≧≡v∧v≈≦.┭.
Living standards in Minneapolis are still rising, and income levels are the highest in the Midwest, but the median income of black families ($17,000) is lower than that of white families.
The proportion of black and Hispanic residents who own homes is only half that of whites, and one-third of the Asian population lives below the poverty line. These are the reasons why Han Peacock came here.
Of course, if it weren't for the large number of Miao people who settled here, Han Kongque would not have chosen this place. But it was precisely because of these Miao people that Han Kongque chose this place without any hesitation.
It is a large state. There are many white people in the east, and many other races in the central and western regions. Most of the Miao people live in the central and western regions.
This time Han Peacock came to the United States, although he did not bring Bo Shanka with him. But as the Miao king, Bo Shanka's status is still very prestigious among the Miao people.
Of course, this prestige still comes from the tribesmen directly controlled by Boshanka. Now, with the help of Han Peacock, the number of Miao people directly controlled by Boshanka has exceeded five million.
The population affected by Boshanka can definitely increase by five million. Adding the indirect influence of these people, the number of Miao people that can be affected is even greater.
Because of their history, the Miao people live abroad for a lot of time, most in Southeast Asia, and quite a few in the United States.≡.┯╊.┯c╳om
It turns out that Han Kongque has a special team of Miao guards, all of whom are equipped with Miao knives. They have an absolute advantage in close combat.
But this time when he came, Han Kongque did not ask Bo Shanka to come over, but instead brought over a team of Miao guards.
The total number of this group of escorts exceeds 500. However, there is only a team of twelve people who have come over now. Some of the others are scattered across the United States, and some are still going through immigration procedures through various channels.
Regarding the Hmong people, especially those scattered around the world, the U.S. government's policies are relatively relaxed.
This is entirely because of Minnesota's policies. In 2010, Minnesota had 53,925 residents, 1.7% of the entire United States. The population growth rate in the past 10 years was 12.4%. The United States was 13.1%.
5.3% of residents are immigrants from the United States compared with 11.1%. Most of the population is concentrated in the Twin Cities metropolitan area.
The distribution of race is: 88.2% white, 3.5% black, 2.9% Hispanic and their descendants, 2.9% Asian, 1.1% indigenous people, 1.4% mixed race.
Minnesotans traditionally consider themselves to be of Scandinavian descent (approximately 1.5 million people, or 30 percent of the population, are Scandinavian), but many more are actually German
Descendants of human beings (about 200,000 people or 40% of the population).≠≤∈⊥.╇.
Recent immigrants have established the third largest Hmong population in the United States in Minnesota, primarily from Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam. Many people from Somalia have also settled here.
Therefore, it is easy for Hmong people to apply for a visa to Minnesota. Han Kongque’s disguised identity this time is that of a Hmong person.
Han Peacock's first escort team is here now. Han Peacock came to this town with the intention of joining up with this team.
Because this pair of guards wanted proof of identity, even if Han Peacock's Chaos Space could be used now, Han Peacock would not bring people in directly, because it would be considered smuggling, and it would be very troublesome to be discovered.
So now there is no one around Han Kongque. He came to the United States as an investment immigrant, so he brought a lot of money with him.
This kind of immigrant is the favorite of the U.S. government and is also the immigrant who gets the application approved the fastest.
The reason why I chose a small town called Relix is because there is an Indian reserve here.
Although the United States has been promoting ethnic integration for more than a hundred years, some Indian reservations still exist.
Today many cultures are gradually mixed with other cultures in the United States, but there are still some indigenous people in Minnesota. It is said that the casinos run by some tribes are one of the most profitable casinos in the United States. ≤网.╈.
In fact, Minnesota is an Indian word, meaning "milky blue water". It was originally inhabited by the Chippewa and Sioux Indians.
From 1654 to 166o, French fur traders came here to survey and establish the first white settlement.
It joined the Union on May 11, 1858 and became the 32nd state of the United States. The state now has 6 Indian reservations in the north.
The Native Americans who lived in what is now Minnesota were mainly Ojibwa and Dakota people, and they lived primarily by hunting and gathering.
But when Europeans came here and began to exploit the resources here, life here changed.
Up to now, although Indians have not yet been able to fully integrate into mainstream American society, some tribes have done well, such as the Chippewa tribe here.
Han Peacock came here for their casino.
Walking into this small town, Han Kongque found that it was very clean. There were not many people on the streets, but they walked in an orderly manner. There were not as many cars as there were in China, but a few would pass by from time to time.
Although this is the United States, Han Peacock did not see a few luxury cars. Instead, the most common ones he saw were trucks or pickup trucks. Anyway, the United States where sports cars are everywhere in movies and TV shows is definitely not here.
This town is mainly about tourism, and the main industry is the gaming industry, so there are many hotels on the main streets here, and these hotels all have casinos.
Soon, Han Peacock stopped in front of a hotel. This seemed to be the hotel where he was going to meet the escort.
Han Peacock walked in. As soon as he walked in, he saw several yellow-skinned beauties. After they saw Han Peacock, they also came over immediately.
"Mr. Kong?" the woman asked in Chinese.
"Yes, I am Kong Xuan." Han Peacock said with a smile. This is why he chose the name of a great god, but after all, it does not break away from the word peacock, so it does not count as a name change.
"I'm Yang Ying. Over there are Yang Fang and Yang Qin. I'm the team leader. They are the leaders of the second group and the third group." Yang Ying introduced.
Han Peacock nodded and said, "Are you all ready?"
"You're ready, Mr. Kong, do you need to rest in the previous room?" Yang Ying asked.
Han Kongque said with a smile: "No, I only brought a few hundred thousand dollars with me this time. What can I do with such a small amount of money? So let's go to the casino to see it!"
Han Kongque came this time as a Miao from Myanmar. His family had a plantation, but due to the war, the plantation was destroyed, so he spent a lot of money to buy a small piece of land in the United States with the help of other ethnic groups.
, immigrated to the United States with the remaining family assets.
The purpose of coming here is of course to run a plantation, and now Han Kongque has a three-acre piece of land in his name, otherwise it would not be so easy to pass the immigration bureau's application.
"This way, please." Yang Ying led Han Peacock towards the elevator.
"Underground?" Han Peacock felt that the elevator was going down, so he asked. He knew that it was legal to open casinos in the United States, but he didn't know why the casino in this hotel was opened underground.
Yang Ying naturally knew why Han Kongque asked this, so she explained with a smile: "It's not because it's illegal, but it's too troublesome to build high-rise buildings. Of course, it's also because of money. You know, in the United States, the taxes levied on commercial buildings are very high."
High, and its service life is very short.
As long as you have money, these are nothing, but the problem is that you can do whatever you want with money. To build a building, you need to apply. Of course, the simpler it is, the easier it is to pass, so it is better to extend it directly downwards, so that you don’t have to apply for a building.
The shape, color and other things of the object.”
Han Peacock laughed: "I have long heard that the United States has various regulations, but I didn't expect to encounter such a weird building on the first day."
"Actually, it's better underground. At least you don't have to worry about various natural problems. You know, the United States is very famous for hurricanes and tornadoes." Yang Ying also said with a smile.
Han Peacock nodded. Naturally, he came here to know a lot about this place. You can encounter any weather conditions here, whether it is wind and snow, heavy rain, hurricane or tornado, it can all happen.
Come on, underground buildings are safer. (To be continued.)
