Chen Rui left the United States and entered Canada through the US-Canada border.
When it comes to the US-Canada border, there are a lot of wonderful things.
For example, in the hotel rented by Chen Rui, the hotel is divided into two, one on the territory of the United States and the other on the territory of Canada. This hotel has both US and Canadian addresses. If tourists happen to live in a guest room on the border line, they can sneak into the United States as soon as they raise their feet. When they sleep, their heads are in Canada and their feet are in the United States. The furnishings in the room ca n’t be moved. Domestic furniture must be purchased from Canada, and if it is settled in the United States, it must be purchased from the United States, otherwise it is very interesting to pay import duties.
Chen Rui traveled along the coastline not = pig = pig = island = novel ww.zhuzh British Columbia, Yukon, re-entered the United States, Alaska.
When it comes to Alaska, the Russians may have a snot and a tear, and a pain that will never be erased.
Speaking of the history of Alaska, as early as the 18th century, the Russians went to Siberia and crossed the Bering Strait into this land.
In 1854, the Crimean War broke out. After the fall of the serfdom, the decaying Tsarist Russia was defeated by the British and French coalition forces equipped with the Industrial Revolution, and the land was reconciled. Alaska was right next to British colony Canada. At first thought, if a battle is to be fought, I am afraid that Alaska can't keep it. In addition, in the eyes of the Russians, this is just a place where the Eskimos are alone and lonely. It is too big, but Nothing. What's the use of keeping it?
So the Tsar began to look for buyers everywhere. As a result, hanging flea nets have not progressed for several years.
however. The time to come is still to come. Soon, one of the biggest and funniest deals in history was born.
In 1861, during the American Civil War, the Western European powers took the opportunity to dismember the United States. President Lincoln believed that it would be difficult for the United States and his country to stand alone, so he appealed to the enemies of the Western European powers, Tsarist Russia, and the Tsar also wanted to report revenge for the Crimean War. So the refugees sent a fleet to sail into New York Harbor, letting the other powers hesitate, and they won time for the Northern Army to win the war.
Although Russia fired at the end of the war, it would have to pay a huge cost just to turn the fleet around half of the earth. The then US Secretary of State William Henry Seward responded "generously" The Russians said that we have just finished the battle and are waiting for it. But your country is not far away to help us. It's like ... this way, it won't let your brother come in vain. Aren't you selling Alaska? Brother, you are so nice to us, we must not treat you badly. Is n’t it second-hand? Don't mind us, don't sell it cheaply, we can make as much as we can.
In the end, Seward offered a price that the Tsar was very satisfied with: $ 7.2 million, a deal! !!
If you count the area, this product is the real king of value for money: according to the division operation, Alaska sells to the United States for 2 cents per acre.
Then what do Americans get from this land.
Gold mines, rich oil, rich fishery resources, and transit stations on the Pacific Ocean route have saved countless fuels for countless aircraft. After World War II, Alaska ’s Uncle Sam was directly facing the owner of this land— —Soviet Russia.
