Section 1 The Wind Rises

"Oh hey, Honolulu!"

With a cheer from the crowd on deck, Honolulu was already in sight. I'm afraid it only takes a few bags of cigarettes to land on this fabled island of freedom.

At this time, it was the midsummer of 1914, the third year of the Republic of China, that is, the Western calendar, and the sun in August was the hottest, let alone in tropical Hawaii? At this moment, it happened to be the hottest noon of the day. If the ship hadn't arrived at the dock and arrived at the legendary land of hope, perhaps many people would not have come to this deck if they were killed.

With several ships arriving at the port, the dock became much more crowded. For a while, it was crowded and crowded, so it was not lively, it was not chaotic. But Honolulu is apparently accustomed to this kind of scene, and many of the teenagers wear Hawaiian-specific short-sleeved shirts that are said to have been modified from the sailor shirts of the American Navy by Zhu Chongzhen, the Han king on the island of Hawaii, to cope with the scorching heat. These Hawaiian teenagers look quite energetic when they wear them, and they look even more agile in their work. The teenagers either helped these visitors carry their luggage and sent them to the Zhao car dealership on the side, or helped the people who came to find relatives and jobs to guide the way. With them, it only took a moment for the crowded dock to become somewhat organized.

Halle Sherman and Abegil Adams have been listening to Hawaii for a long time, and this graduation trip, they finally arrived here, where can they hold back their curiosity, so they didn't wait for Miyamoto Liufeng and Fang Mei, the two of them were like yellow birds leaving the cage, one or two hands lifted their long skirts slightly, leaving a silver bell all the way like laughter, and in a few breaths, they ran from the special passage of the first class cabin to the crowded dock.

"Oh hey, Honolulu!" The two stood on the dock, shouting with open arms.

After this shout, the two looked at each other, sniffed the peculiar smell of the fishy and salty sea breeze in the air, and laughed happily.

"Hallie, Abby," Miyamoto called out to the two of them in the distance, "Wait a minute, be careful of getting lost!" ”

Hearing Miyamoto Liufeng's shout in the distance, Harley and Abby glanced at each other, turned around, and waved vigorously at Miyamoto Liufeng and Fang Mei behind them, "Helen, Taylor, you guys are too slow!" ”

People came and went on the dock, but after a while, more than a dozen people flowed around Harley and Abby, including boat passengers coming to Hawaii, teenagers who were grooming, and teenagers who were ready to take work. The two shook their heads, then quickened their pace and walked forward, walking a few steps in front of Hallie and Abby, Fang Mei saw that the two of them were still there looking around curiously at the scenery of Honolulu, without noticing it at all, and couldn't help but giggle, "Take a good look at your body, is there anything missing?" ”

This question was strange, and Harley and Abby were stunned when they heard it, "Didn't you say that Hawaii is the most clear?" How can we be less things. ”

Saying this, but as soon as they looked at them, Harley and Abby screamed,

"My bracelet is missing!"

"My necklace is gone! That's my grandmother's stuff! ”

The two of them suddenly panicked, turned their heads to look around, but saw the crowd rolling in, without stopping, coming and going like woven clothes, and tears poured out of their eyes.

This scene was seen by a visitor next to him, and he immediately felt uneven. This man was no more than 20 years old, wearing an ordinary Chinese shirt, and he had obviously come to Hawaii to look for relatives and work. He thought about it for a moment, his eyes were like lightning, and he swept around, and then he looked at a young man who was watching around against a pillar not far away.

"Young man," said the visitor, striding over to him, "the sage said that a gentleman loves money and takes it in a proper way. At your age, don't learn such a brisk and misguided thing. Manly, dignified, eat with his own hands, even if he is shabby, he must be frank and open! ”

Miyamoto Liufeng saw that the young man was recognized by the visitor, but he burst out laughing, and Fang Mei on the side was already clapping her hands there and having fun. Only a somewhat angry Harley and Abby glared at each other with teary eyes.

The boy hadn't said anything, and the teenagers who came and went on the dock had already begun to laugh, like a pebble thrown into the lake, and the laughter gradually rippled, and for a while, every crack of the crowded dock was filled. Many of those who had just disembarked were baffled.

"Twelve, now Master Sun must make you look good!" Fang Mei clapped her hands and said with a smile: "At least an hour's horse step is inevitable!" ”

The young man was stunned for a moment when the visitor said this, but he didn't expect that he would be recognized by a young man who had just come to the island. After being stunned for a while, seeing that everyone was laughing at him, he was not annoyed or ashamed, and arched his hand to the young people who were laughing around him, making a gesture of thanks.

"Senior brothers, when you see it, you can't say it, after I go back, I will go to Master Sun to receive the punishment!"

Seeing him say this, some of the young people who were familiar with him replied loudly: "Twelve, although the craftsmanship is not at home, this demeanor is good, and there is no shame!" It seems that Ishii-kun taught it very well! ”

Some people even laughed and said, "Don't worry, I'll leave you food!" ”

The young man laughed, waved at Miyamoto Liufeng and Fang Mei in the distance, and then bowed his hand to the visitor, and said solemnly: "In Xia Zhao Weijun, a senior first-year student of Yiye Academy, and a disciple of Mr. Sun Lutang of the Hanliu Jiuye Boxing Department, may I ask the name of this brother Taigao?" ”

When the visitor saw Fang Cai's scene, and saw that Fang Mei was familiar with this Zhao Weijun, he knew that Fang Cai was just a joke, but he acted a little abruptly. He shook his head, knowing in his heart that he was still a little young, and his temperament had not sunk. Seeing Zhao Weijun ask so politely, he blushed a little, and arched his hand at Zhao Weijun, a little ashamed:

"It's me who is abrupt, please don't blame Brother Zhao."

With that, he turned and walked away, striding forward. Zhao Weijun didn't report his name when he saw him like this, and thought that he was afraid that he was looking for trouble, so he couldn't help but be a little funny, but when he saw that the person was leaving quickly, he shouted loudly: "Brother Tai is coming to Hawaii to look for relatives or work?" I know this Hawaii the most, and I may be able to help my brother! ”

When the visitor heard Zhao Weijun say this, he stopped and was silent for a while, before turning his head, clasping his fists, and said to Zhao Weijun: "Thank you Brother Zhao for your kindness, but I want to travel here first, and if necessary, I must go to find Brother Zhao!" ”

Zhao Weijun heard Lu Zuofu's answer like this, smiled bitterly, but did not answer. Fang Mei next to her shouted at the visitor: "Sir, sir, stay!" ”

As she spoke, Fang Mei ran to the side of the visitor and thanked, "Mr. is warm, thank you so much!" I don't know what to call him, what are you doing here? My home is in Honolulu, if my husband has no relatives or friends, he can come to my house to borrow it. ”

Seeing Fang Mei say this, the man smiled slightly, "My name is Lu Zuofu, and I came to Hawaii to find a job, and I want to travel and see what freedom is and what the future is." ”

When Fang Mei heard Lu Zuofu say this, she thought about it sideways for a while, and said, "There is a Hongzi restaurant in Honolulu, it should still be recruiting, Mr. can go there to have a look." My name is Fang Mei, and Mr. Lu knows what he said to the shopkeeper. ”

After speaking, Fang Mei waved at a young man in the distance, and the young man ran over with a smile, "Sister Mei, but do you want me to send Mr. Lu over?" ”

Fang Mei Yile, "Little Thirteen is really smart!" You go to Zhao's Auto Dealership to find a Ford and send Mr. Lu over! After speaking, he took out a few tickets from his sleeve and handed them to Little Thirteen, "Well, this is the fare and your tip!" ”

Xiao Thirteen took it and smiled: "It's still Sister Mei who is generous." I'll invite Sister Mei to tea when I go back! As he spoke, he turned back to Lu Zuofu and said with a smile: "Mr. Lu, please!" ”

Lu Zuofu saw Fang Mei acting and had the heart to refuse, but in the end he arched his hand, "Thank you, girl!" ”

After that, he went with Little Thirteen.

Seeing the two walking away, Zhao Weijun sighed: "This Lu Zuofu really regards me as a petty thief!" ”

"You still say!" Miyamoto Rukaede scolded with a smile: "If you don't take out the bracelet and necklace, you will make Harley and Abby cry urgently!" ”

Zhao Weijun smiled, stretched out his hands in the air, and shook them lightly at Hallie and Abby, and suddenly the bracelet and necklace appeared in his hands, "This is Hawaii's way of welcoming relatives and friends, don't be angry with the two sisters." Anyone who is new to Hawaii always goes through this one. ”

With the words, Zhao Weijun circled around Harley and Abby, when Harley and Abby looked again, the bracelet was already on their wrists, and the necklace was also hanging around their necks, the two touched it, both of them couldn't believe it, and then laughed and shouted: "Helen, Taylor, is this your Oriental magic?" It's amazing! ”

Miyamoto Liufeng smiled, there was no interface, but he asked Zhao Weijun, "Is the prime minister's voting result out?" ”

"It's out," Zhao Weijun touched his head and said, "Senior Brother Chishang has the highest number of votes, and he will succeed Master Chen as prime minister in a short time!" ”

"Ikegami?" Suddenly, a voice in the distance asked, "Is it Sakai Ikegami?" ”

This voice sounded familiar, Zhao Weijun looked back, and sure enough, it was Zhang Yuanji. I saw Zhang Yuanji leading a few people to stand aside, obviously just getting off the boat.

"Mr. Zhang is here too?" Zhao Weijun replied with a smile: "This newly elected prime minister is indeed Senior Brother Ikegami Sakai!" ”

Zhang Yuanji let out a soft "oh", his expression was a little gloomy, but he didn't say anything more. He is a frequent visitor to Hawaii, many students in Yiye Academy are familiar with Zhang Yuanji, seeing him coming, many teenagers on the dock bowed to Zhang Yuanji and saluted as disciples, and then a few people came over to help Zhang Yuanji carry his luggage, and the rest were still busy.

Zhang Yuanji was thoughtful, stunned for a while, and then suddenly remembered, and introduced to a few people next to him: "Ade, Desheng, these young people who help on the dock are all high-level students of Yiye Academy, and they have experienced the world here as an intern. ”

Yu Qiaqing and Rong Desheng have seen a lot, but they have never seen the students in the academy to do such things, so it is a little strange, but the two of them saw Zhang Yuanji's gloomy expression, so they didn't ask more, and the two followed Zhang Yuanji out of the dock, went to Zhao's car dealership to find a few Fords, and went to Hongzi Restaurant.

Seeing that Zhang Yuanji was also gone, Zhao Weijun stuck out his tongue and whispered to Miyamoto Liufeng and Fang Mei: "Recently, a lot of people have suddenly come to the island, I heard from the senior brother of the academy, it is Yang Du, Liang Qichao, Huang Xing, Chen Jiongming and others have come here in the past few days, I'm afraid it's not the old country, what is going to happen?" ”

"What else could happen?" Fang Mei frowned and said, "It's only been two years since the Republic of China started, and the civil war began. What else could happen! ”
