America 1869: A Doppelganger Every Day

Chapter 94 Hawaii Part 4: Concealing One's Strength and Biding One's Time

In just six months, the number of Chinese people on the island of Hawaii has exceeded 3.

That means that one-third of the people on the island are now Chinese.

In this situation, Americans in Hawaii sensed that something was wrong.

They immediately reported this situation back to China.

There are indeed different opinions within China regarding whether or not to occupy Hawaii.

However, when it comes to the idea that the Chinese wanted to occupy Hawaii, everyone is in agreement.

"Hawaii already has a small population. If a large number of Chinese immigrants arrive, no one can guarantee that one day the Chinese will completely take over Hawaii."

"For the sake of Hawaii's territorial integrity, and for the sake of what we have said, we will never allow the Chinese to occupy Hawaii."

"Agreed. It is necessary to restrict the continued entry of Chinese people into Hawaii, and, where possible, to encourage existing Chinese people to emigrate from Hawaii."

In an effort to restrict further Chinese immigration to Hawaii, the United States deployed two cruiser warships to dock at the port of Hawaii.

When the American envoy met King Canghai, he spoke directly.

"I know that King Canghai wants to develop and expand Hawaii, but too many immigrants and Chinese people are not good for you. If the Chinese people stand up to resist your rule, Hawaii may fall into war, or even be occupied by the Chinese."

"After all, the Chinese have a huge backing. If they continue to immigrate to the island of Hawaii, you may not be able to keep your throne in the end."

Canghai had long known this day would come, but he hadn't expected it to come so soon.

He only transported 3 people to the island, and the Americans realized what was happening.

However, these 30,000 people are enough, and another 10,000 will arrive soon. He must keep these people here. With these 40,000 people, they will be basically the same as the island's inhabitants.

That way, Hawaiians and Chinese can integrate, and once they integrate, more Chinese can immigrate, and Hawaii will become a Chinese country.

Of course, this requires some planning.

However, it's true that I can't immigrate anymore now.

The United States has already taken notice. If immigration continues, it might lead to Hawaii's development, but the possibility of Chinese people occupying Hawaii would put many countries on alert.

It will be difficult for Chinese people to immigrate to other small countries at that time.

Li Changsheng still wanted his clones to occupy many small countries, so in order for the plan to succeed, Hawaii had to stop there.

Li Changsheng had discussed this with his clone, and the clone understood that it concerned long-term plans, so he hadn't planned to continue immigrating. Since America had come over, he naturally wanted to get some benefits.

"I don't want to immigrate, whether I'm Chinese, American, or from anywhere else. I don't want to immigrate to any of them."

"But without immigration, Hawaii can't develop."

"We used to have a large population in Hawaii, but in recent years, we've been dying from various diseases, and now there are only tens of thousands of people left. If we don't have some people immigrate here, the Hawaiians will soon be wiped out."

"In order for Hawaii to develop better, I can only choose to immigrate tens of thousands of people to develop parks and wastelands."

"Of course, since your Excellency has said so, and it is for my own good, I can agree."

"There is one thing I hope to gain is your country's support."

"If we can't develop Hawaii's land, then we can only increase revenue from what we already have."

"After all, I just bought a fleet for fishing, and also purchased a large amount of weapons and equipment to equip my soldiers."

"I've racked up a lot of debt because of these things. If I can't make money in a short time, I'm afraid I'll have to give up Hawaii to France."

"Therefore, I hope that the previously signed treaty can be nullified, and that in the future, American ships docking at Hawaiian ports will be required to pay corresponding fees. At the same time, taxes due must also be paid."

"Only in this way will I have a chance to pay back the money."

At this moment, the American envoy finally realized that he seemed to have made a mistake before coming here today.

According to the king, he brought the Chinese to work in order to make money.

Moreover, he already knew that the weapons and equipment he bought for his fleet were all purchased from France.

In other words, the King of Hawaii borrowed a lot of money from France to arm himself.

So in order to repay his debts, he had to recruit tens of thousands of Chinese people to make money for him.

If these two things were taken out of context, they might not seem like a big deal, but when they're put together, it's a different story.

If Hawaii isn't allowed to make money now, it will run out of money and owe France more and more.

When they finally can't pay back the debt, are they really going to have to give Hawaii to France?

That's absolutely unacceptable.

Fortunately, they had discussed it beforehand, so he could make decisions if any special circumstances arose!

Continuing to send Chinese people is absolutely not an option, but sending white people to work in Hawaii is even more impossible; no white person would be willing to come.

The only people who can come here are wealthy businessmen; they come to make money, not to work in this run-down little place.

So now there's only one question left: how can Hawaii repay France's debt?

It is obvious that when he bought goods from several French countries, he must have agreed to the conditions of those countries, and it is impossible for those countries to pay this stopover tax and other taxes.

If you want to make money but don't allow immigrant workers, then the only way is to make that money from American tariffs.

If they disagree, they will have to watch Hawaii be devoured by France.

It's nothing to pay a little price to get Hawaii.

Having figured this out, the envoy simply made the decision himself, signed an agreement with Canghai, and revoked the previous preferential policies.

At the same time, Canghai also guaranteed that as long as Hawaii has sufficient financial revenue, it will not allow any more Chinese immigrants.

After the two sides reached an agreement, what the envoys did not know was that Hawaii had received another 1 people just before they signed the agreement.

But he didn't say anything at the time. After all, it was just another 1 people, no big deal.

As long as they don't accept any more in the future, that's fine.

After the envoy left, Canghai, facing the emotions of his subordinates, began his Hawaii tour speech with great sorrow.

While he was giving his speech, his newly established Hawaii Intelligence Agency also began operating throughout Hawaii under his direction.

The world needs Hawaii to keep a low profile, and at the same time, it needs to integrate Chinese people into Hawaii.

Therefore, the following speech is the most important.
