1892: Life in the American West

This was a thought I had after I beat my eldest cousin and looked at Arthur lying on the ground dying, waiting for death. The West at the end of the 19th century was neither chaos nor order. This period was the last carnival of gangsters. From then on, there was no longer a place for them in the underground world, and only their legends remained in the west. What is so good about the West at the end of the 19th century? Hollywood has been filming it since its birth. I have watched "Once Upon a Time in the West", "True Grit" and "Days of Love" before I understand the significance of the West to the United States. Just like what Dutch said in a book called "American Purgatory" in his cousin's camp, the United States in the east is just a shadow of Britain. The real American spirit is the west, the wild freedom of the west, and the American dream formed during the westward expansion movement. What would it be like if we returned to the West at the end of the 19th century? This novel gave me an imagination.

The author's writing style is okay and quite graphic, but this book is really hard to read. I don't think the protagonist's character is bad, nor do I think it's not fun enough without a golden finger. What makes me uncomfortable is that the theme you chose doesn't match the content you wrote. The reason I clicked on this book is because I am interested in the subject of the American West. What did the American West look like in the eyes of ordinary people at the end of the 19th century? It's violence, it's chaos, it's money, it's wealth. To put it bluntly, what I want to see is confrontation, conflict, fire and blood, and a big scene full of gunfire. It's a bit stereotypical, but this is the West I want to see. However, I did not expect that you chose farming. In an era of bloody violence, in a ferocious and barbaric environment, in a social background where Chinese are inferior to dogs and you are Chinese, you finally chose to rise through farming. Is this reasonable? Is this the West? If you want to write about farming and farming, and you place it in the mid-to-late 20th century, then I don't think there is anything wrong with what you wrote. But if you put it in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, it would be somewhat inconsistent. If you write about gangs, gun battles, violent conflicts, or armed confrontations, and add Chinese characters to make it easier for people to feel involved, this book will be very interesting. But you, who started out as a farmer, are a bit too "warm and affectionate" in the Western context. With your character setting, the west should be a theme of iron and blood. However, the conflict in your story is not intense enough, the plot is not tense and passionate enough, and the scenes are not grand and domineering enough. It can be another story, but it does not look like a story about the rise of the Chinese in the west. Your West is not the West I want to see. Of course, the above are purely personal feelings and purely subjective biases. I respect the author's opinions and the opinions of other readers. Don't criticize if you don't start a fight.

After reading more than twenty chapters, half of them were about being insulted, making silly jokes when I should be serious, and making silly jokes every day. Chapter 24: After the battle, when it was time to relax, he was discriminated against again. When he was discriminated against, the protagonist said a long speech, whether it was copied from the Internet. I can't stand it anymore. I wonder why you set up this plot so that the protagonist gets to know two people of high status and embrace each other? You still want to farm. Do you want to farm under the background of discrimination against Chinese people? If you want to farm, just write a Caucasian protagonist. From the beginning, he can successfully obtain a visa, board the train, kill the robbers, gain honors, and get land to start farming. Rather than being like a turtle boy who can't do anything, you can be insulted and discriminated against, but you have to fight back and win. Look at the events you wrote about. Which of them were accomplished? Apply for a visa at the beginning, and if you are blackmailed, you will be blackmailed. Either you give him the money and get it back later, or you design a plot where you are persuaded by the protagonist. The person next to Ma argued a lot and asked the protagonist to make a lot of remarks. In the end, he still had to give money and nodded and bowed. If you didn't have the ability, wouldn't it be over if you had just given money? Your mother's bracelet was sold by your adoptive father, and you were insulted and beaten by your adoptive father. You just left home in anger? You tried to get the bracelet back, but you were insulted, ambushed and beaten, so you just took some money and your bracelet and left? After going through life and death to kill a gang of robbers, you were insulted again. After being insulted, you said a lot of things to fight back. You couldn't convince others, and you were insulted again. You still had to rely on someone with status to speak up before you were let go. What I said here was that you were let go. I was right, otherwise you would be taken away for murder. Funny or not? Coward or not? What I saw was a turtle man who was always on the way to being insulted. Is this what we want to see when we watch Western themes? You write about a yellow protagonist who is still thinking about farming in the context of being discriminated against. What kind of farm do you want to farm? Or you are like the guy next door, the yellow protagonist. Although he is also discriminated against, he is highly skilled in martial arts and can kill decisively and can maintain his dignity. Or you can write a white protagonist who wants to farm, do what you should do, get what you should get, and gradually develop with the wave of western modernization. To put it simply, the story is well written, but not a good story. What's so interesting about Turtle Man's story?

In the third golden chapter, he successfully portrayed a protagonist who did not dare to break the rules, was submissive to discrimination, and compromised to various threats, and then also exaggerated that the protagonist was very powerful in the past. The reason is actually for a "Western" dream that comes from nowhere. 5-Year-old children all know that if they can't achieve their dreams, they should try another one.

Brother, are you kidding me? Around 1900, you set up a Chinese settlement in the United States. That's not how you were seeking death. You said independence in the United States was much better than this situation.

Chinese Americans in 1892? The author has no brains? Is this the same as the 1566 Angsa people who came to China and came to the landlords to give them away for free? The Han people even want to conquer Mongolia. In 1892, the United States except Onsa, Judea. Even white Italians are discriminated against.

I don't know if it was written in a hurry, but a lot of the logic didn't flow. I couldn't stand it after reading the first few chapters. I felt really lacking in intelligence. I was desperately short of money, and I planned to buy land to go to the chaotic West at that time. I needed money and weapons, but I ended up throwing it into the fire. You insist on asking for trouble, and you are still commenting that it is troublesome to hold a gun. I don't know where the trouble lies? You don't even dare to hold a revolver, why go to the West? I really don't know what I'm writing about. They killed people and set fires, but they didn't touch the corpses. The store owner must be richer than you, a wage earner. At least he has a few hundred dollars. But then he wrote that he was short of money to buy a bus ticket. It was true! Well!

May I ask if this person was the head child before? Is anyone convinced by my words? Do you have any proud achievements? No shit, why should anyone believe it?

Under the economic crisis, the West implemented the Chinese Exclusion Act, and all Chinese were repatriated or killed in large numbers. This happened more than once. This was not done by the United States, but was started by all Western countries. It seems that Canada did not want to mix in the West in 1890. Unless you have an armed force, otherwise you are a businessman. I don't see how you can survive. You first look at the Manchu students who were also deported and killed. There are not a few who were also deported and killed.,,,,

In fact, Goldfinger could be more powerful, less difficult, and give the Americans more extraordinary treatment. White people don't need sympathy anyway. In China, whether it is a modern city, history or fiction, whether it is a golden finger or a system, everyone is super powerful, and you will be scolded if you feel aggrieved. I wonder why so many of the protagonists Milligan are gone, but each of them seems to be careful to protect Milligan's life. The author doesn't even dare to open the golden finger a little wider. What kind of logic is it based on?

In the second chapter, I was persuaded to quit. What the hell? There was so much written and a lot of foreshadowing. I thought there was at least an explosion. After all, I had been cowardly for so long, and my mother's relics of key props were pawned. Didn't I kill or cripple this scumbag adoptive father? Are you still a normal person? How can you write a western novel without any blood? See how you use your love to influence this sinful land? Am I here to see a wimp conquer the West with his kindness and love? This is a sinful country that eats people without spitting out their bones. You are a descendant of the Yan and Huang descendants. Do you sympathize with your mother? Even if I don't become a world-destroying demon, I am considered well-educated. How can you get people to subscribe? Is it easy to make money? Do we read books to feel uncomfortable? I'm here to have fun! If you don't even know this, who will?

I specially changed my account to comment. I can't comment because I'm recommending the book. When has it been? It's not true at all that he's still disposing of animal carcasses and has time to chat there. Oh my God, he hasn't gone back to see a doctor yet. Simply. I have read more than a dozen western or "Red Dead Redemption" related books in the past few days. Originally, this was the only book left to read. I didn't expect there to be so many chapters in the latest chapters. Goodbye. His chest was torn out by a bear's paw, leaving five large gashes. The other person's back muscles and leg muscles were scratched. You can't see the specific tracks and it was already full of minced meat. He didn't go back and was still dealing with it, so he said he was still chatting there.

Who cares about yellow and white races these days? Just mix race + self-interested cooperation and development. Don't fall in love with any country🥱. It's a sure thing. After all, it's a novel under the eyes of the protagonist. The focus is on the protagonist and not the country.

After reading more than a dozen chapters, let me tell you my opinion. The author is quite attentive and hopes to create a more vivid and ordinary person-like protagonist image. However, online literature is also a time-travel novel. What is your favorite part? Isn't it prophetic? Since the protagonist is a time traveler, does he have no preparation or plan for historical development and his own Chinese origin? Are you still going with the flow like the natives at that time? The most important thing in time travel writing is of course change. Change yourself, change your relatives and friends, and change history. Otherwise, what's the point of traveling through time? The lowest level, if you can't change yourself, your book will be a failure. Abandoned. Goodbye.

In the second chapter, a strong young man cannot beat a drunkard, and he is knocked down by the drunkard. The protagonist is a loser.

In the first chapter, he dared to resist, but in the second chapter, he was inexplicably cowed. What does that drunkard and domestically violent stepfather do? The author said that he will appear again later. Is this reserved to continue to disgust readers? The subsequent plot is a piece of shit! Many readers will give up immediately after seeing this, and those who remain will probably give up the book after the bad guy appears again. What's the point of doing this, author?

After writing another half of the beginning, the editor said that it doesn't matter whether you change it or not. People who can read it won't abandon you because of the garbage beginning, and people who can't read it won't fall in love with the book just because you changed the beginning. But I was stubborn, so I still changed it, but I didn't change it, like changing it. I have included the first three chapters in the work. Please criticize me and I will make corrections.

I feel sick when I see Chinese Americans. Can we not write pornographic works?

The author's writing style is actually good, but it really misses a very unlucky point - the protagonist is Chinese Chinese is definitely a plus in a modern setting. However, the setting of this book is at the end of the nineteenth century. . . The late Qing Dynasty was weak and the status of the Chinese could not be imagined. The core contradiction appears. When the protagonist is of Chinese descent, as long as the background of the times is respected, the protagonist will never be able to live comfortably. He may be able to gain some friends who recognize him, but he will never be recognized by mainstream society. Between the refreshing plot and the restoration of the historical background, you can only choose one or the other. . .

When I traveled to the United States in the 19th century, I thought about the vastness of the sky, but I didn't think about armed tribesmen standing on top of the world. As expected, a waste is a waste, even if it is reborn, it is still a reborn waste.

The author said that the third golden chapter has been revised four times. I can't understand it. It has been revised four times and it's still the same thing. In the first four chapters, the protagonist is either being beaten or on the way to be beaten. He has a bit of an advantage and can't beat the opponent with a ruthless hand, and then gets fucked again.

Is the author serious? In 1892, the United States was supposed to be an era where gangsters were rampant, and it was an era when American gangster police were lawless. It was an era when people of color basically could not survive with kindness. As a person of color, it is impossible for you to make a fortune peacefully. Unless you have fair skin, even if you are mixed race, you should highlight your white skin. To be precise, don't even think about it before 1980.

It was too poisonous and divided. The Chinese had no sense of representation in the United States at that time, because they knew that the status of the Chinese in the United States was not as good as that of black people in the United States, let alone the era of selling piglets. How could they be represented? I would rather your soul and Chinese people are more reasonable, your grades will not be good, and you will be separated.

The author should read the US Chinese Exclusion Act before writing!

It's well written. I'm an old book friend. I hate it. About Three Golden Chapters I feel pretty good. The character descriptions are very vivid. There's nothing wrong with it. The protagonist's personality and so on are all the same. It's comfortable to look at. Writers who write bad money routines like AI do the same thing. I respect the stories written by every writer based on their respect for me. What is respect? Respect is intention. The author is very attentive. There is nothing wrong with it. It can be seen that it is done with care and time. The concept is very good. About the plot Personal opinion The plot is the author's business. You can write whatever you want. There is nothing wrong with it. You don't need to consider the readers. If you like it, you will have to say what you don't like. Those who like it will be publicized, and those who don't like it will not. About the characters Personal opinion. A good novel is really not supported by the protagonist. It is supported by supporting characters who are flesh and blood. Don't be panelized and use more snacks on the supporting characters. It will be rewarding. Personal suggestion: Don't have too many supporting characters. It can't be too few. Supporting characters can die. A dead supporting character is a good supporting character. There is no such thing as an undead companion. As long as the story is well written, the character name should be as simple as possible. It would be better if you can add the second characteristic. It is not as good as the rookie Bent, Little Eyed Bill, and Cripple Wilder. Some readers can't remember the names but can remember the characteristics. The combination of the two is more vivid Write with heart. It's really good. I like your story. Come on. Only when you have fun writing can you have a good story and don't have to worry so much. First, you are happy

Haha, this comment is interesting, but Internet coders are also very stubborn, but it is worthy of praise for allowing trainees to post comments in the comment area.

The writing is pretty good, but the protagonist's choice of weapons is too stupid because he chose two double-barreled shotguns, which ruined so many things. He never replaced the smoke bombs he made himself. You can keep one as a tactical equipment. If you insist on using two shotguns, you are like an idiot.

Learn from the American TV series Yellowstone. As long as the Chinese in your book are as ruthless as the Yellowstone people, they can stay in the western United States.

In 1900, Chinese farming in the UK was more reliable than in the US.

Overall it's okay, but it doesn't feel like it's written about the West at the end of the 19th century. It feels like the middle of the 20th century. The West in the 19th century can be said to belong to the barbaric era. If you don't accept it, just do it.
