When did China first immigrate to Europe?

The earliest time for China people to go overseas can be traced back to the Yuan Dynasty, when some China businessmen "lived in Tibet" in other countries, sometimes for ten years.

1896 Tian Hetong, born in Yongjia, whose father did business in Germany and later became a German citizen, was the earliest European immigrant in modern China. 1905, Hu, a Ruian native, went to Europe with his uncle to sell Qingtian stone carvings, which was the first time that Wenzhou people started a so-called "business" in Europe.
