Chapter 398: Righteous Sister Goes to Chinatown
Xu wanted to create established facts, so that Chen Mu did not have any hesitation to retreat, and after Chen Qi and Chen Tong went back, the gossip that Chen Mu was about to leave Hong Kong soon spread.
Chen Mu's rise is legendary, a lion with a dugong skeleton across the river, in just over a year, united large and small halls, kept the walled city, and traveled between the major forces, still able to meet the source, and even get bigger and bigger.
To this day, he meddled in port affairs, opened a museum and taught apprentices, both black and white, and few people dared to offend.
What's more, he also went to the sports club to worship the pier, straightened his hard bones, didn't know how to bow his head at all, and finally sat in a wheelchair, and still helped the sports club, defeating the British martial artists and the Japanese martial artists.
Count down the piles one by one, and if any one of them is spread on the heads of others, it is worth boasting about the "great achievements" of most of your life.
Seeing him reach the top, he has a bright future in the future, and he is very likely to become a grandfather figure in Hong Kong that no one dares to mess with.
But the legendary life of such a hero has just begun, and he is about to leave!
Although it was gossip, it ignited the whole of Hong Kong overnight, and both the white and the black were confirming the news through various channels.
For many people, they wish Chen Mu left, but for others, they don't want to see Chen Mu leave.
All kinds of emotions and discussions are full of streets and alleys, and they have become the biggest hot spots and focus after dinner.
Since last night, people from all walks of life have been running to the Winter Lion Pavilion in an endless stream, but no one can see Chen Mu.
Chen Mu, who was in the whirlpool of the storm, seemed to be sitting in the eye of the storm, and there was already a storm outside, but he was exceptionally calm.
He had already obtained Honglian's consent, and Honglian's resoluteness also made him feel warm, no matter where he went, Honglian would follow him to the death, which also gave Chen Mu great confidence.
With such a premise, Chen Mu didn't have too many doubts.
The outside of the Winter Lion Pavilion was full of people who wanted to see him, but Chen Mu only saw a few old acquaintances.
One is Wang Julou and Li Sanjiang, and Chen Mu has already handed over the port and the business of Longji and Hong Shuntang to the two of them.
They are the most resolute force against the Qing Dynasty who support the revolution and are the most resolute force against the Qing Dynasty, and these resources are in their hands, which can continuously support the revolutionaries, and Chen Mu can also rest assured.
Chen Mu sent a secret letter to Isabella, informing her of all this, but Isabella did not come to visit, and Chen Mu did not take the initiative to meet her, because he knew that Isabella was a person, what she wanted was business, as long as Wang Julou and Li Sanjiang could generate enough profits, she would recognize these two new partners.
It's not that there are people who want to take over the Winter Lion Pavilion, but the Winter Lion Pavilion has left too deep a brand of Chen Mu, and others can't take it over at all, even if they take over bluntly, it is impossible to do it to the extent of Chen Mu.
So Chen Mu found Xie Jintai, who was a good friend of Yang Zhaochun, and founded the Furen Literary Society with Yang Zhaochun in the early years.
And Chen Mu's Winter Lion Pavilion originally just wanted to open a martial arts hall, and agreed to Mrs. Yang's request, so that it became both civil and military.
After the opening of the museum, Chen Mu selflessly took in those orphans, and the Winter Lion Pavilion was not so much a martial arts hall as a refuge for these orphans.
After thinking about it, Chen Mu handed it over to Mr. Xie and asked him to change the Winter Lion Pavilion into a Tzu Chi House according to the practice of the orphanage, so that he could rest assured in the future.
Chen Mu can let go of all kinds of things, but there is only one thing, but some are not easy to do, that is, according to Zhong Shuiyang's instructions, the dragon head stick cannot stay in Hong Kong, he must take it away.
Because the Zhongyi Headquarters is in Honolulu, Chen Mu escorted Zhong Shuiyang back for treatment and recuperation this time, and it was also to inherit the livelihood of the Zhongyi Headquarters, so the dragon head stick had to be taken away.
The dragon head stick was sacrificed earlier in order to condense the power of each hall and let them unite into a peach, and the dragon head stick did work wonders.
Now that Hetao is on the right track, everyone has a territory, and everyone abides by the rules, and the binding force of the dragon head stick is said to be somewhat unnecessary.
But Hei Guhong and others regard the dragon head stick as a symbol, Chen Mu suddenly wants to take it away, these hall bosses are afraid that they are not very willing, even if the dragon head stick was originally brought by Chen Mu, it is not easy to pull it out of their mouths.
Perhaps because of his weak heart, it is really surprising that Black Guhong did not come to visit like others.
Chen Mu's influence is undoubted, especially after getting a share of the port, which brother on the road doesn't want to take refuge?
As the mountain owner of Hehetao, Hei Guhong also ran to Chen Mu's side, and Chen Mu also let the brothers do business in the port area, which can be regarded as taking care of these guys very much.
If Chen Mu wants to leave, he will inevitably leave behind a large area of territory and a large piece of fat, and the bigwigs actually want a piece of the pie.
It's just that the black bone red rarely didn't come to the door, and it is estimated that it is also the idea that Chen Mu will beat the dragon head stick.
This kind of thing, of course, Chen Mu would not be in the way of the situation and not pursue it, if Zhong Shuiyang did not deliberately advise, Chen Mu might have left the dragon head stick.
Because the dragon head stick condenses the power of the hall, it has become the symbol of the most cohesive and honor.
If he stays in Hong Kong, Tongkou will inevitably continue to grow and develop in the future.
But Zhong Shuiyang said that the situation in Honolulu is not very good, otherwise there is no need for Chen Mu to cross the sea to protect him, and with the dragon head stick, he will have enough authority.
After all, Chen Mu's deeds in Guangdong and Hong Kong have not been able to cross the ocean and reach the ears of those people at the Honolulu General Altar.
Although Zhong Shuiyang can also send a telegram and mention these, the telegram does not have a few words, and it is impossible to report everything in detail.
Chen Mu wants to be tougher in front of the people in the main altar, and the dragon head stick is not necessary, which is why Zhong Shuiyang attached so much importance to the dragon head stick in the first place.
After thinking about these things clearly, Chen Mu was going to go to the black bone red to ask for the dragon head stick.
The front door was full of seekers, and they couldn't go out, so they could only go out through the back door of the Winter Lion Pavilion, but they didn't expect that the back door was also guarded by many people.
Chen Mu can close the door to thank guests, but he is not arrogant enough to drive away these people who want to see, so it is a little difficult to get out.
As soon as he returned from here, a report came from outside: "Master Chen, there is a Miss Li Qingyu outside, who says that she is Ye Chen's sister......"
"Why is the herring here?" Although it was unexpected, it was also reasonable, and he couldn't get out, so Chen Mu asked people to bring Li Qingyu in.
"Sister, what are you doing for such a feast?"
Li Qingyu was a little annoyed: "I can't come to see you if it's okay?" If you don't come today, are you going to leave quietly and not tell me? ”
As soon as he finished saying this, Li Qingyu's eyes were ruddy, and he was about to cry.
Chen Mu has always known Li Qingyu's thoughts about him, but the two relied on each other in their early years, like brothers and sisters, and Chen Mu didn't want to delay Li Qingyu's lifelong event.
It's just that at this moment, I inevitably feel a little self-blame in my heart.
Even if he can't accept her affection, but in the final analysis, he is also a brother and sister, if he really left like this, Li Qingyu couldn't even practice it, it would be too much.
"I also agreed to the request of the Chen brothers during the day, and I was about to tell you ......"
Li Qingyu pursed his lips: "It doesn't matter if you don't tell me, I'm going to leave anyway......"
"You're going to go too? Where to go? ”
"I'll go wherever you go!"
"Isn't it?" Chen Mu was also stunned, and immediately explained: "I went to Honolulu to protect the Loyal and Righteous Church, but I didn't go to the mountains and rivers, you can't go with it!" ”
Li Qingyu was suddenly disappointed.
"That's what I make you hate?"
"No...... That's not what it means...... I mean, it's not a joke to be drifting across the ocean and being displaced from the country......"
Li Qingyu silently lowered his head and muttered, "You're just afraid that I'll pester you......"
Chen Mu was also a little embarrassed, not knowing how to answer, Li Qingyu was frank, raised his head, and said to Chen Mu.
"Don't be sentimental, I'm not going to follow you, I'm not going to pester you, I'm going to follow the troupe, just passing through Dandao, and I'm going to San Francisco in the end."
"To San Francisco?" Chen Mu didn't expect that Li Qingyu would go to San Francisco in the United States.
"There are many Chinese and overseas Chinese compatriots in San Francisco, and their chamber of commerce invited our troupe to perform in the past a few months ago, saying that it was the anniversary of the founding of San Francisco Chinatown, and many provincial and Hong Kong troupes were invited to ......."
"I originally thought that I would leave early and go there to see it, but the British set up a police station in Tai Po again, and so many things happened, so I kept dragging my ......"
"This period of time has also stabilized, and the two masters have discussed setting off, who knows you...... You're going to leave without saying a word......"
When Chen Mu heard this, he also suddenly realized, and said to Li Qingyu: "So that's the case, then you still come to tease me!" ”
Li Qingyu also stuck out his tongue and said to Chen Mu: "Whoever let you go won't tell me, it's cheap to tease you!" ”
Chen Mu also smiled awkwardly: "Then when are you leaving?" ”
Li Qingyu stared at Chen Mu directly, and the latter also subconsciously took two steps back: "You look at me like this...... Do...... What do you ...... do?"
Li Qingyu approached: "The two masters will take the troupe away, I don't want to take a boat with a group of old guys, why don't I go with you first, and get to Honolulu a few days in advance, so I can contact the master and them, and help them transfer a ferry ticket or something, will you take me or not?" ”
Chen Mu also breathed a sigh of relief: "It's rare that you are thoughtful, I will take you with me, I will take you there, is it not true that I want to take care of my sister as a brother?" ”
Li Qingyu also scolded angrily: "Now you know that you have to take care of your little sister?" Earlier, I was afraid that I would pester you, and I wished I could run away overnight! ”
Chen Mu was also embarrassed: "Isn't this afraid of bothering you, you know that I'm the most afraid of crying and crying when I leave......"
Li Qingyu snorted at this time: "Don't worry, it won't be this time, I have to walk around when I get there, help the master and them to take care of it in advance, who cares about you!" ”
Hearing this, Chen Mu was finally relieved, but for some reason, he always felt that Li Qingyu had something on his mind to hide, and he couldn't say why for a while.
