The Peruvian cargo ship The Maria Luz was detained in Yokohama for swindling and selling Chinese coolies, which caused an international lawsuit. Under the supervision of the Japanese Foreign Minister Soejimataneomi, Ooetaku, the Prefectural Governor of Kanagawa, acted as the chief justice and finally rescued all the Chinese coolies. The Chinese government was informed of this incident afterward and was asked to take them back; the top officials of Qing Dynasty including Li Hongzhang attached much importance to this incident, made immediate responses and discussed the problem with their Japanese couterparts via letters and sent the Shanghai local official Chen Fuxun to take the coolies back. Chen Fuxun was thus the first Chinese diplomatic envoy to go to Japan for negotiation. This was the first benign event in modern Sino-Japanese communication and hence was of great importance in history.
