I need information about China people looking for gold in Australia around 1850 (with details

1850, the then colonial government gathered miners from China and established China Village, with special officials responsible for protecting China people from harassment and discrimination by hostile European and American miners. China village has China grocery store, Chinese medicine shop and Guan Gong Temple.

During the 62 years from 1788 to 1850, Australia, as a British colony, had 187000 people, including 146000 prisoners. With the discovery of gold mines, there has been an abnormal labor shortage in Australia. To this end, the colonial authorities began to recruit a large number of laborers from China.

The arrival of South China University of Technology certainly accelerated the development of the mining area, but it also caused a lot of friction. China people are honest and capable, and their wages are only half that of whites, so they naturally become the first choice for mine owners to hire, causing envy and dissatisfaction among white trade union leaders and workers. Coupled with the differences in cultural traditions and living customs, the contradictions have intensified. 1855 In June, Victoria, which has the largest number of Chinese workers, passed the first Chinese exclusion bill, the main content of which is that each ship going to China is limited to 1 Australian, with a deadweight of 10 ton, and a poll tax of 10 pound will be paid when entering the country. This is the beginning of the "White Australia Policy". Since then, other states have followed suit, and held three intercontinental conferences against colored immigrants to Australia, and increased the ship load of China people entering Australia from 10 ton to 1 ton. This will tighten the door for China people.

1857 On July 4th, more than 700 white miners attacked Chinese workers in buckland mining area, and more than 750 tents, 30 shops and a Chinese temple were burned. More than 2,500 Chinese workers fled into the forest to take refuge, and 10 people were killed. This is just one of many Chinese exclusion incidents. In this context, the number of Chinese in Australia has dropped sharply. In the early years, there were 40,000-50,000 Chinese workers in Australia. From 190 1 to the 1960s, there were more than 20,000 people for many years and more than 10,000 people for several years.
