At the headquarters of the Zhigongtang in San Francisco, Situ Meitang is negotiating with a middle-aged man, the two are of the same age, Situ Meitang is more literati, and with a pair of glasses, outsiders can't seem to think of a Hongmen boss at all.

The person on the other side is just the opposite, in his forties, wearing single clothes in winter, with strong muscles bulging, and a look of non-anger and self-authority. It is the previous boss of the Zhigong Court, martial arts master Huang Sande.

"Big guy, I have already met Zhang Zhidong, Vice President of China, and Zhang Taiyan, Foreign Minister, and they are really cheerful people, they are sincere to us, and they don't mention the previous contact with Sun Ge in the court. In addition, William, the San Francisco consortium, was originally a subordinate of Chinese President Lu Liang, and he came to San Francisco on Lu Liang's orders. ”

Huang Sande: "There is such a thing, Lu Liang, can let Huaguo rise in a short time, let a subordinate create a famous consortium, and can also blame us for the past, which is worthy of our admiration!" ”

Huang Sande has always had a pimple in his heart, he was bewitched by Sun Mei (Sun Ge's elder brother) back then, and easily believed Sun Ge's words, almost causing a catastrophe. He thought that he was ashamed of the country, so he gave way to Situ Meitang as a way to punish himself, and he has not been able to let go since then. Hearing Situ Meitang's words at this time, Huang Sande was even more guilty of Lu Liang's generosity.

"Big man, it's not better than being so concerned, what else do we have to do to the court to redeem our original mistakes." Situ Meitang has always called Huang Sande a big man, and he always asks for instructions when he encounters major events, but Huang Sande does not interfere in the internal affairs of the Zhigong Court, and he still lets Situ decide when he encounters problems.

"Yes, yes, we have to do something, we have to contribute to the country. President Lu Liang does not forget us overseas travelers, we must not be ungrateful, you can talk about it. What can we do? Huang Sande stood up anxiously and walked back and forth, this is a good opportunity to soothe his guilt!

"The Chinese delegation to the San Francisco talks is well prepared, and with William's help, we can't do much. I heard that the Chinese Navy has a super battleship, and its advanced level is far behind the warships of other powers. Big guy, if the Chinese have several such warships, then who else dares to bully us Chinese! ”

"Yes, it's a battleship! Wasn't it the warship cannons of the great powers that made our country conservative and humiliated, and opened our country's door, and now our country finally has its own warship! Huang Sande's big tears rolled down, and the Chinese abroad can better understand the pain caused by the country's sinking, starting from working in Honolulu to the current Zhigong court. Huang Sande can best understand the difficulties in it, and he can also cry with excitement because the country is strong.

"What do you say, big guy?"

"Donate, donate to the navy, Lao Tzu is bankrupt and wants to see the warships of the Chinese Navy, if our donation can allow the country to build another battleship, we are worth dying!" Huang Sande suppressed his excitement and said categorically.

"I have amassed more than $700,000 in personal wealth. Take it all out, as for how much the court takes out. You make the decision, I don't interfere. It's impossible to take it all out like me, you can do it, as long as it doesn't affect our normal operation, you can take as much as you want! ”

Situ Meitang nodded firmly, a Chinese who is working hard overseas. I am not afraid of death, I am not afraid of being tired, I am afraid of being bullied and despised. But from now on, who would dare to bully us Chinese?

Song Zhongji is a 28-year-old man who was tricked by traffickers from Shandong to work as a coolie in the United States ten years ago, and was later rescued by the court. Because he is tall and strong, he has practiced kung fu for several years. After joining the Zhi Gong Court, he served as a prosecutor, and he can also be said to be a thug. On weekdays, he does a small business, and if he encounters a call from the hall, he transforms into a thug and charges into battle.

"Brother Song, have you heard?" On this day, Song Zhongji was walking to his residence after selling fruits, and a young man leaned up, and after the two had spoken complex and difficult code words, the young man asked.

"Little third son, what's so mysterious, isn't there another assignment?"

"No, our court is in San Francisco, and this is not a few years ago when the Italians, the Locals, and the Irish were rampant. I heard that Tangkou is going to donate a large sum of money to Huaguo, saying what is used to build warships, haven't you heard? "The third son is also a prosecutor, but he is very well-informed.

"What do you mean?" Song Zhongji was a little puzzled.

"Huaguo, big brother, our country, the revolutionary party that defeated the Manchus, destroyed Little Japan some time ago, and dispatched a super battleship, which is more powerful than the American warships! It said that the money will be donated to the country to build more warships, and no one will dare to bully us in the United States in the future! The little third son said with a longing expression on his face.

"You mean, the church asked us to pay for it too?"

"Look at your slamming appearance, how much money do we have in our hands? When will the church take money out of your pocket, and how much will we be taken care of by the church in the United States! Don't say that we don't care if we ask for money, if you want to, I'll pay it out immediately! ”

"Little third son, don't get me wrong, I'm not picking on the door, isn't this preparing to get married, and I don't have enough money in my hands."

The third son glanced at Song Zhongji with disdain, Song Zhongji's head was hot, and he said: "Marriage can be postponed, Lao Tzu's lifelong event is a fart compared to national events!" Didn't the hall ask for money, Lao Tzu took the initiative to take out his wife's book, even if he added a screw to the battleship! ”

"Brother, I didn't do it right just now, I know that you are a hot-blooded man, but it is important to get married. I'll help you out of your share, and I'll pay it back to me when you're married and have plenty of money in your hands. The third son of this heart has received it, let's go to the church to donate money! ”

Along the way, Song Zhongji and the third son fought back and forth, and when they arrived at the entrance of the hall, they found that most of the brothers had come over, holding crumpled dollars in their hands, which seemed to mean the same thing. These men who fight and kill on weekdays, no one has dropped the chain at a critical moment, and they may not know the general righteousness of the country and the dignity of the nation. But everyone knows that with a national backer, you have the confidence to speak and do things!

The influence of Zhi Gongtang spread throughout the United States, and its members were from all walks of life, most of course, from the middle and lower classes. The Chinese circle is very small, and everything will be circulated at the first time, and soon, the news of donating money to build warships spread to the Chinese all over the country, with warships, not being bullied, and the simple thinking prompted the Chinese to donate enthusiastically, which caught the initiator Situ Meitang off guard, because most of the Chinese took the money to the court. In this case, the Zhigong Court exerted its strong organizational ability, recorded the donations one by one, collected them, and publicized them.

The donation action that swept the United States made Lu Liang cry and laugh, and he immediately asked for the return of those donations in Wuhan, because he did not lack the money for the super battleship at all, it was a systematic project, and more resources such as steel were needed. However, Zhang Zhidong of San Francisco sent a telegram asking Lu Liang to hand over the money, and according to Zhang Zhidong, the money was the embodiment of the patriotic heart of the Chinese people, and it was also the embodiment of the desire to ask for national protection.

Every penny is a responsibility for Lu Liang, and he can only fulfill everyone's entrustment more attentively. He even felt a trace of sadness, the country has forgotten those Chinese for too long, not only in the United States, but also all over the world, how many grievances have been poured out, can only bear silently. Now to buy peace with money, that's what the state should do!

Kakadon is a Japanese American who came from across the sea to settle in San Francisco. At first, he participated in the gold boom in California, and was lucky enough to dig up more than 20 gold grains, so he opened a grocery store in San Francisco and struggled to survive in a foreign country.

Unfortunately, a decade ago, local white gangs swept through the neighborhood of Asian immigrants, and Kakadon's father was killed in that turmoil, and the grocery store was ransacked. After that, Kakadong swallowed his anger, cleaned up and reopened, and with the patience and diligence unique to Oriental people, he finally stabilized his life.

Four years ago, the white gang "Dead Rabbit Gang" and the Italian gang "Fresh Fish Gang" fought fiercely, and the battlefield was chosen in the neighborhood of Asian immigrants.

As a result, the court won a complete victory, completely drove the white gangs out of San Francisco, and Qimu, whose personal safety was maintained, had a trace of gratitude to the Chinese. But soon the war between China and Japan made Qimu angry, and for the Japanese overseas, their power was far less than that of the Chinese organization, not to mention that now that the Zhigong Court ruled the San Francisco underground, they could only hide their anger silently.

Therefore, when Japanese Foreign Minister Takaaki Kato organized a donation meeting in San Francisco, when he spoke passionately and loudly about Japan's suffering, Qiki was touched and took out all his savings, a total of 120 US dollars. The donation activities of the Japanese and the spontaneous donations of the Chinese were carried out almost at the same time, and the enthusiasm of the Yamato nation made the initiator Xiyuan Temple Gongwang very proud, look, this is the consciousness of the clansmen, and I believe that soon the Japanese delegation will not be short of money (to be continued. )
