The Multiverse Starting from White Deer Plain

273. Arrive at Amei Ken Country (please order the full version)

"Of course, I'm just a suggestion. Google search to read"

"It's up to you whether you listen or not..."

Himura Kenshin sighed. To be honest, he still couldn't bear to see Yamada Mitsuko looking at him like this. Since he couldn't let go, he, as an elder, could only use other reasons to enlighten him.

"I will seriously consider this matter."

Yamada Mitsuko nodded, worrying about gains and losses.

Does she really want to force Bai Gui to divorce his wife and marry her? If Bai Gui really did this, would he still be the man she once liked? But if she didn't do this, it would be difficult for her to accept that Bai Gui had another woman.

"Take a step and take a look."

“I went to Yale just to study.”

She thought to herself.

This steamship sailed from Tokyo to San Francisco in the country of Ameken. It would take at least more than a month to reach its destination.

New York State is on the east coast of America.

In later generations, the Panama Canal shortened the voyage from East Asia to the east coast of Ameken. But at this moment, the Panama Canal is still under construction, and you have to take a train from San Francisco on the west coast to New York State on the east coast.

It was about the same time as Bai Gui expected.

In about forty days, they arrived at San Francisco, the east coast of Ameken.

"When I returned to China with my brother, San Francisco was not like this. I didn't expect that San Francisco has changed so much in just a few years."

"The speed of development of Amei Ken is amazing."

Bai Xiuzhu just got off the ferry and looked at the busy scene in front of her, a little shocked.

San Francisco five years ago is changing rapidly from San Francisco now.

"The first industrial revolution occurred in England because the production of handicrafts could no longer meet the needs of the market. However, the outbreak point of the second industrial revolution was concentrated in emerging countries because..."

"The old direct system has brought great benefits to the empire on which the sun never sets. This group of British people are even more keen on building a huge direct system to plunder wealth. However, emerging countries do not have opportunities like England and France, so they only You can cultivate your internal strength and expand your productivity technically in order to overtake in corners.”

"So, when you go to England, you can see the use of various steam engines, but in Ameken, there are already various applications of electricity..."

Bai Gui shook his head and said casually.

This is only part of the reason why Amei Kenya has undergone tremendous changes. The general trend of history is inseparable from changes in the economic factors behind it. This is also what Confucianism says: all the bustle in the world is for benefit, and the hustle and bustle in the world is for benefit.

It is not yet the golden period for the development of Amei Ken. The real outbreak will begin after the European War.

"Weekly News."

"On January 1, the world's first scheduled civil aviation route began operation in Florida, with a route distance of 35 kilometers."

“On January 5, Henry Ford dramatically raised wages for Ford workers in an effort to stimulate production.”

"..."

"The Panama Canal is expected to be opened to navigation on August 15th..."

As soon as they reached the port, they heard the radio horn sounding.

"Is that what the newspapers call radio?"

“I didn’t expect people from my country would start using it so quickly.”

Everyone exclaimed.

After they entered Ameiken's country, they really felt like country bumpkins.

In the early years, they read in newspapers that scientists predicted that radio would become a new media method. Unexpectedly, when I arrived in Ameiken, I would see the implementation of broadcasting so quickly.

"As early as 1864, the English theoretical physicist Maxwell discovered the basic principles of electromagnetism. In 1884, the German scientist Heiny Hertz followed Maxwell's method and realized the method of generating, transmitting and receiving infinite radio waves. …”

"A few years earlier, in 1906, University of Pittsburgh professor Reginald Fessenden had implemented a short program broadcast."

"The current broadcasting technology should not be used for commercial purposes. Amei and Kenya are still in the exploratory stage in terms of broadcasting."

Bai Gui benefited from his good memory and said slowly.

According to the history he knew, it would be 1920 before Amei Ken would start formal radio broadcasts.

But...it is only in the exploratory stage, which is far beyond that of most countries.

"Mr. Bai... is really well-informed."

Himura Kenshin sighed.

Only now did he realize Bai Gui's true excellence, because he was not only a martial arts practitioner, but also a famous scholar at home and abroad.

When we left the port, we rarely saw rickshaws. They were all taxis with Ford cars parked.

The model is a Ford Model-T car.

The price of this car in 1908 was $825. By 1916, the price of this car was $360. At that time, the monthly salary of Amei Kenyan workers was about US$56, so they only needed to work for about six months to buy a Ford Model T car.

"Hello, go to the train station!"

Bai Gui took Bai Xiuzhu's arm and got into the Ford car and spoke in English.

Behind him, Kenshin Himura, Mitsuko Yamada and Mitsuko Yamada's escort also got into other Ford cars together.

Himura Kenshin only guarded Yamada Mitsuko by the way, and it was obviously impossible for the Yamada family to just let Himura Kenshin protect him like this, so they arranged three samurai bodyguards, all former retainers of the Yamada family.

"Okay, sir."

"Your English is so fluent, it sounds like a London accent."

The driver, a middle-aged white man, turned his head from the driver's seat and said.

"I learned spoken English for a while with an Englishman in London. Well, he was my butler."

Bai Gui made nonsense.

At this time, the people of Amei and Kenya still had some inferiority complex when facing the English. After all, the sun never sets in England now, and it is not the small country huddled in the British Isles in later generations.

Speak fluently with a Cockney accent and you will obviously gain the respect of others.

"It turns out he is a noble gentleman."

"Please wait……"

The driver corrected his attitude and said.

He started the car engine.

The Ford drove slowly down the busy street.

British butlers originated in France, just as French was once a high-level language second only to Latin in the upper class of Europe, but later with the development of history, British butlers became more famous.

(Greece and Rome used Latin as a means of communication and specially set up Latin education.)

Generally, wealthy nobles like to hire English people as housekeepers.

At this time, Amei-Ken had a Haiku Act, but it was also during this period that the number of Amei-Ken studying abroad was increasing day by day. In terms of Geng funds, the Amei-Ken government even used this as funds for students to study abroad. From 2009 to 2012, 100 students were selected to study in the United States every year, and then 50 students were selected to study in the United States every year.

From then on, studying in Japan and studying in the United States became the two major ways to study abroad.

In the final analysis, the so-called Haiku Bill means that Amei-Kenya people believe that domestic workers are taking away their jobs, so they refuse to admit Chinese into Amei-Kenya...

But... wherever Mr. Huang goes, there is Mr. Huang.

Especially Mr. Huang, who has a smooth London accent and is dressed in upper-class clothes. The taxi driver is not confident enough to despise Bai Gui. Even if he feels disdainful in his heart, he will not say it out loud.

Soon we arrived at the train station in San Francisco.

Bai Gui and his party didn't plan to stay in San Francisco for a long time, and there wasn't much discomfort on the ship so they wouldn't have to rest, so they planned to get to New York State as quickly as possible.
