In this article, the author exemplifies business and farming immigrants in north Fujian province in Qing dynasty to illustrate the discrepancy in their indigenizing process from the aspects of wealth accumulation, fame acquirement, public affairs participation, and the establishment of clan organization. From specific cases, it was found that business immigrants had more advantages and were more capable of accomplishing these goals than farming immigrants in terms of speed, scale, and integrity. The key factor in the above discrepancy was the amount of the wealth, because proper economic conditions were often required to perfect other factors. The author concludes that wealth was the foundation of the indigenization; fame was the necessary qualification; clan organization could further boost the process; and public affairs participation would in turn help fame acquirement. Therefore, although immigrants could become indigenized by naturalization or taking exams, they often needed to possess wealth and fame first to speed up the process. Afterwards, they would help to establish their clan organization, and seek for opportunities to participate in public affairs. In summary, the priority of conditions in the indigenization process, was in this order-wealth, fame, clan organization, and then public affairs participation.
