I plan to live forever, of course, but barring that I'd settle for a couple thousand years. Even 500 would be pretty nice.

They do this because the governments hate them and have tried to expropriate their wealth or genocide them in the past, along with a background level of steady racist laws against Chinese.
They are the educated merchant class and hated by the locals for a lot of reasons, and fortunately as merchants and people who are more educated than the rest of the national population, they are able to meaningfully hold their own (and often the lion's share of national wealth, despite being single digit minority).
Sounds like an opportunity to do some Russian-style "protection" and seize territory or expand the Chinese sphere of influence through economic and military intimidation.
