Oswald runs a Chinatown laundromat in 1931 and somehow nobody got cancelled.
Oswald the Lucky Rabbit works in a laundry shop in Chinatown in this one. It's a late synchronized sound cartoon: no talking or singing, but lots of music.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Walt Disney lost Oswald to Universal in a contract dispute in 1928, which directly led him to create Mickey Mouse out of spite.
This was part of a wave of 'Chinatown' cartoons where white animators mashed every Asian stereotype into six minutes — the 'laundry' trope was already exhausted by 1931.
