tatiyna

Answer:

Chinese took many jobs and came mainly for the gold rush in California. they were also hired to help build the First Transcontinental Railroad because Americans were lazy at that time and no one wanted to work on rough jobs like that, they only were about .002 of the entire nation but government was still worried about racial purity.
