The first day in San Francisco was meeting with the various business that had heavily invested in trade with Imperial Russia, Rosneft which was a Russian oil and gas company that was selling heating units for Alaska, Magnitogorsk Iron a exporter of large Industrial and farming equipment and last Tatneft a transportation company that had heavily invested in the new cargo ships and cargo containers.

The meetings were extremely boring but the owners were all new money that had come into money via the revolution and land grants from the government which all they had worked for could be taken away in an instant.

So on the second day the Anastasia and her entourage visited the Russian part of town and the various factories to see how they compared to Russian ones.

On the streets of San-Francisco a convoy maneuvered through the tight and overcrowded areas of the slums of the city, unlike the other occasional other car they are extremely out of place.

Two of the three were large six wheelers that were heavily armored and had a number of soldiers on the inside, while the one in the center was a long sleek black car.

The convoy pulled up beside a clothing factory, to keep the situation of the factory real and working conditions unchanged.

The Czarina exited her car in working clothes that will help keep her safe from the dangers of the slavish quality of the factory.

Walking up to the doors of the factory with Nichols and Nikolai by her side, Nichols knocked on the doors.

A man answered the doors wearing a very nice suit, "What do you want." He looked at the group and tried to discern there intentions. "Good morning, I am Lt.C Nichols of the United States Army I am here to show Her Majesty Anastasia the city." Ana raised her hand to interrupt, "I am looking to invest in this factory but I wish to see the place before I invest." Ana then grab a large gold coin from her side pouch and flashed it at him.

You could practically see the dollar signs in the man eyes as flung the door open as his entire demeanor changed. "Well welcome to my factory your majesty please let me show you the place."

Upon entering the group was bombarded with the smell of sweat as the first bite of fresh air entered the place since the beginning of the day, the work area was filled with 100s of women stuffed together like sardines they all eyed the group as the owner expounded on the great productivity of the factory.

The Czarina completely ignored the man and looked at the women and the working conditions of the factory and was horrified, the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire put in place a number of laws to protect workers and stop a tragedy like that from repeating.

A number of the woman that were immigrants or of color were chained to work station, while the owner was distracted to speak to one of the workers.

Approaching a young native woman, she tried to speak to her in English but that failed till she began to work through the various North American tribe languages till she spoke the Yoktuk Language one of the Californian tribes.

The woman immediately began to explain that she was being held captive here and had tried to get help form the other woman but they didn't trust her because the owner had used a plant before to stop this.

Calmed her and promised to get help, they left and got the police involved and with the Czarina involved something was actually down to save and return the various victims to there families.

The day was cut short after that as she acted as a translator for the various woman as the owner had preyed upon.

Nichols during all of this was banging his head against the wall as the diplomatic situation continued to worsen, to make the situation even worse a pack of journalists from all over the world was following the Czarina and published scathing articles about the factory and America.

After the slaver situation was handled Anastasia returned to the Airship and continued her journey through America and was headed for the Native tribes in the Great Plains.
