America 1869: A Doppelganger Every Day

Chapter 131 Pinkerton: Never Offend Changsheng Li

Li Changsheng's article caused Pinkerton to lose a lot of business and earn less money!

This incident angered Pinkerton and also disappointed him with his men.

"Has the person in charge in New York arrived yet?"

The person in charge who hadn't taken Li Changsheng seriously now stepped forward with his head down and small, hesitant steps.

Pinkerton slapped the other man across the face, knocked him down, and kicked him a few times before speaking in an annoyed tone.

"Do you even have a brain?"

"Even if you want to find the Justice Alliance, you can't find Li Changsheng."

"Even if you threaten Oliver again, you'll have guts."

"But instead you went to deal with that Chinese guy. Were you out of your mind, or did a donkey kick you in the head?"

Despite being in great pain, the New York manager remained steadfast in his convictions.

"Boss, I don't think I did anything wrong. He's just a Chinese person. This article was just an accident. It won't be long before things calm down. When that happens, I'll definitely teach him a lesson."

Pinkerton then kicked the other man more than ten times, until his eyes almost rolled back in his head, before finally stopping.

"You idiot, an incurable idiot, why did I ever send you to New York to be in charge?"

"Before you disregard others, can't you at least do some proper research first?"

"Do you know who this Longevity Plum is?"

"He only used articles in the newspapers to deal with us, which is the least he could do."

"If he really uses all his connections, we will lose a lot of business in the United States."

"Let's not even talk about how influential his own newspaper is; you've all seen that."

"Besides being a newspaper owner, a writer, and a critic, he was also an inventor."

"He was a friend of the famous American writer Mark Twain."

"It's fair to say that the two of them could get most of the American literary world to come out and help them."

"He was also an inventor."

"He was friends with Lester, the inventor of the bicycle, and also with Edison, the inventor of the double telegraph."

"He also had close relationships with many inventors and helped many of them achieve success."

"Furthermore, he has a deep connection with the Global Patent Group. It is his invention of heating systems and radiators that has made the Global Patent Group a fortune."

"He introduced a friend to Global Patent Group, which secured the telephone patent, and telephone companies in the United States and even the world owe Li Changsheng a favor."

"He is the leader of 50 Chinese Americans."

"He has millions of fans worldwide."

"He is a friend of the three most mysterious men in the world—Wutiaoyaoji, the Prophet, and Daoxuan."

"This is only the network we know about; he has many more connections that we don't know about."

"I won't even mention his connections. If he really uses them, our Pink Detective Agency will probably lose most of its orders and eventually go bankrupt."

"Fortunately, he wasn't that ruthless; he didn't try to wipe us out."

"Otherwise, with these connections, we'd be close to bankruptcy, and with his methods, he could definitely sweep our Pinkerton Detective Agency into the dustbin of history."

The New York manager, regaining his composure, said somewhat unconvinced.

"Boss, I admit to everything you said earlier. I did underestimate him. He is indeed very capable and has a lot of connections."

"But to say that with his abilities and connections, he can make us fade into the dust of history is simply impossible."

"He said he does write well and invents great things, and that he's built a huge network of connections through these things, but what other abilities does he have besides these?"

Pinkerton waved his hand, and two men stepped forward.

"Take this idiot out of here, lock him up somewhere, and then I'll personally take him to apologize to Li Changsheng."

After watching the person being led away, Pinkerton remarked with a sigh.

"Those who say that Changsheng Li has no ability are all mentally challenged and have problems."

"According to my information, several years ago, Chinese people were already becoming victims of the American struggle, and there was even a Chinese Exclusion Act that was about to be introduced."

"But this man's appearance was like a flick of his wrist, turning the world upside down and completely eradicating anti-Chinese sentiment across America in a short period of time."

"It even influenced congressional legislation, which led to the implementation of immigration and citizenship for Chinese people."

"At that time, he had only started a newspaper and developed a fountain pen."

"To do this with almost nothing, he couldn't be an ordinary person."

C

"Moreover, after he solved the problem of discrimination against Chinese Americans, he set his sights on the entire Americas."

"Through his efforts, the employment restrictions on Chinese laborers in the Americas ceased to exist."

"Even feelings of exclusion and discrimination against Chinese people have decreased significantly."

"All of this has enabled Chinese people to settle down in most countries in the Americas."

"At the same time, two to three million Chinese have immigrated to the Americas in recent years, and these two to three million Chinese can be mobilized at any time if they wish."

"He also forged a deep relationship with General Sherman through the development of Alaska."

"There's no point in saying more, I don't want to say any more, you just need to remember one sentence."

"From today onwards, you can offend anyone. Even if you offend the president, the president won't lay a hand on us Pinkertons so that we can help them solve some problems."

"But if we really offend Changsheng Li completely, and he goes to any lengths, then Pinkerton is finished. My good days are over, and neither are yours."

After giving instructions to his men, Pinkerton sent someone to New York with the New York representative to meet Li Changsheng again.

Li Changsheng never expected that even the owner of Pinkerton Detective Agency would come.

After the two sides met, Pinkerton said, "You should explain to those people that they should welcome the actors from the Chinese American Drama Society to perform."

However, Li Changsheng smiled and shook his head in refusal.

"Our Chinese American Theatre has begun to establish itself across the United States, so we will no longer need to perform in other people's theatres."

"If Mr. Pinkerton is willing, he can speak to those who are ready to sell the theater and have them sell it to me, and then our business will be over."

There is an old Chinese saying: "Those who follow different paths cannot make plans together."

"I don't agree with what you're doing, but as long as we don't interfere with each other, I won't interfere."

"I just hope we won't have any more contact in the future."

Finally, Pinkerton left with a dark expression on his face.

But after he came out, he visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

"No matter what, you're still Chinese. I can't do anything to you now, but don't give me the chance in the future."

.

He was still thinking about when Li Changsheng would get into trouble and kick him while he was down, but little did he know that Li Changsheng was not prepared to let them off so easily.
