Godfather of Chinatown: Reborn in North America, 1868

In the mid-nineteenth century, the mighty Taiping Rebellion was declared a failure. Lin Si, the sole son of a loyalist general, drifted to North America and became a Chinese gold miner.

The Hongmen: "Lin Si? That guy may not play by the rules, but we have to admit, his arrival completely changed Chinatown and the fate of the Chinese people."

The Mafia: "Lin? Good Lord, he's the last person we want to offend. Cross him, and you might as well wash your neck and wait to die."

A representative of the slave states: "Lin? I'd love to skin him alive! He freed all my slaves and stole my gold! You ask why I don't take it back? Oh... the steak last night was delicious. I'll have two more tonight."

Andrew Johnson: "Lin... He's the federal government's greatest enemy! He took Alaska and Hawaii right out of my hands! He united the Chinese laborers like never before. He's everywhere, and he'll overthrow our rule. Why won't anyone believe me?"
