Chapter 188 Secret meeting (1)
At around 9 a.m. the next day, Chen Hao and others first took a leisurely stroll in downtown Los Angeles for a while and experienced the scenery of this gateway city on the west coast of the United States.
With the improvement of transportation and the discovery of oil in the Los Angeles Basin, Los Angeles is now developing very fiercely. Human resources, industries and other production factors in the western United States are concentrated here, making Los Angeles rise rapidly and has gradually become the largest and most prosperous city in the western United States.
After walking for a while, under the guidance of Wang Xuanzhang, everyone naturally turned to Los Angeles Chinatown, which the People's Liberation Army secretly controlled.
Today, Chinatown in Los Angeles not only covers an extremely wide area, but also has a new look. Wherever you look, whether it is the streets and alleys, or the square park where Chinese compatriots gather to visit, they are very neat and clean.
What is even more surprising is that almost all the Chinese male compatriots who were coming and going on the road had short hair in a row, and none of them had disgusting pigtails! Moreover, these people seemed more civilized and polite, and did not spit or litter everywhere.
There is no doubt that these are the results of Ye Hui, Huang Sande, Zheng Tiexue and others' severe supervision and crackdown on Chinese compatriots.
Half a year ago, when Ye Hui, Huang Sande and others proposed to cut off their braids in Los Angeles and asked Chinese compatriots to develop hygiene habits, they were also boycotted and hindered by many Chinese.
After Ye Hui and Huang Sande and others sent a message to Chen Hao for advice, they first ruthlessly excluded and suppressed those guys who were stubborn and treated their braids as treasures.
Since Ye Hui, Huang Sande and others had powerful force and financial resources, those guys who were ignorant of the current affairs had no power to resist. Soon, these stubborn elements either compromised and fled from Los Angeles in a panic.
At the same time, Huang Sande's Zhigongtang also took advantage of the situation to annex other Chinese gangs in California. During this period, several powerful battles occurred between the Chinese gangs, which triggered many bloody cases.
These uncivilized battles were soon reported by many American media and were sarcastic and ridiculed by them.
Especially the Los Angeles Times, with the cooperation of PLA intelligence personnel, conducted a detailed follow-up report on the incident. The Times fully disclosed the nature of modern Chinese people fighting against internalists and external laymen, proposing that if Chinese people don’t unite to seek development, they will become inferior people who are inferior to black people.
Soon, many gang organizations issued statements, saying that after listening to the good advice of the American media, they would definitely change their past and live in peace with their compatriots.
After the statement was published, the struggle between Chinese gangs disappeared immediately. This behavior of knowing mistakes can be corrected has been praised by many American media.
The battle between Chinese people is a trivial matter. The Americans talked about it as a joke for a few days before it calmed down.
Zhigongtang roughly unified the Chinese gangs in California, and then began to make drastic improvements. The most important improvement measure was to cut off all Chinese people in California's disgusting pigtails to gain American recognition and favor. Zhigongtang also raised donations and opened many private schools for Chinese people, allowing Chinese women to attend school as well.
Moreover, Zhigongtang also allowed some well-known Chinese people and big businessmen to make progress, and issued a statement to learn hygiene from Americans in the newspaper and put it into practice, which won the favor of many white Californians.
Chen Hao and others strolled in Chinatown for more than a moment, and it was time to have lunch. Wang Xuanzhang led Chen Hao and others into the Liberation Party’s own industry, which was available for thousands of people to eat at the same time.
I saw that the Aihua Food Restaurant was crowded with people, mixed with several famous foreigners coming to eat, and their business seemed very popular.
After entering the restaurant, Chen Hao, Zheng Tiehao, Xia Xingshuo and others followed Wang Xuanzhang to the high-end private room inside. The "Divine Dart" Huang Congli, Lu Liwei, and "Gun God" Ma Zhengyu and other guards stayed in the hall to eat and monitored the movement outside.
Chen Hao and others walked into the private room and saw that two banquets had been set up in the private room. Ye Hui, Huang Sande, the important figures of the Liberation Party in the United States, Zheng Tiexue, and Song Guangzheng, the deputy leader of the Zhigong Hall, were all present, waiting for Chen Hao's arrival.
Seeing Chen Hao coming in with a smile, Ye Hui, Ma Yuanding and other soldiers saluted Chen Haojing in awe. Then, Ye Hui introduced the famous Huang Sande, Song Guangzheng and others to Chen Hao.
Chen Hao shook hands with Huang Sande, Song Guangzheng and others intimately exchanged greetings, and sincerely spoke intimate words like "revering the name for a long time", which made Huang Sande, Song Guangzheng and others very excited.
When Zheng Tiehao saw his long-lost brother Zheng Tiexue, he walked up to hug Zheng Tiexue, and said with a smile: "Brother, I haven't seen you for more than a year. I thought you would be tired and haggard when working abroad, but I didn't expect you to be still in a good mood!"
When Zheng Tiexue saw his long-lost younger brother, he was also very excited and said with a smile: "With the behind-the-scenes support and overall planning of the commander-in-chief, my main task is to run errands so that I won't be tired! But you kid have changed a lot, you look a lot thinner and mature and sophisticated."
After receiving the praise from my elder brother, Zheng Tiehao said angrily: "Of course, I will be by the commander-in-chief all day long. If I don't change and improve, how can I survive!"
As he said that, Zheng Tiehao leaned into Zheng Tiexue's ear and whispered: "Brother, I'm happy!"
Zheng Tiexue was overjoyed when she heard this, saying, "Really? Okay, this is so great! I received the news that my younger sister was still unable to get pregnant a few months ago. I suddenly felt like I was lost and I felt very unhappy!"
After everyone took their seats, they were having a lot of chatting, and another middle-aged man was led in by the PLA special forces guarded outside.
Seeing this person finally arrived, Huang Sande said happily: "It's better to come here than to be a coincidence! Junior Brother Situ Meitang, you are the only one left!"
Situ Meitang was born in 1868 in a poor peasant family in Guangdong Province. At the age of 12, he was forced to live with his hometown, traveling across the ocean to the United States to make a living, working as a handyman in a restaurant in Chinatown.
At that time, in order to protect his own interests, many overseas Chinese joined the Hongmen Zhigong Hall and other organizations. In 1885, the 17-year-old Situ Meitang vowed to join the Hongmen Zhigong Hall and embarked on a path that affected his life.
The Hongmen Zhigongtang was the largest private association organization for the lower-class people of overseas Chinese in North America at that time. It took the creed of "loyalty, loyalty, unity and mutual assistance" and the banner of "anti-Qing and restoration of Ming Dynasty".
Because Situ Meitang is very skilled in martial arts and is willing to fight for justice, he soon made his mark in Zhigongtang and became the core figure of Zhigongtang.
In 1894, Situ Meitang went to Boston in the eastern United States and established Anliangtang, which was the banner of "repelling the strong and helping the weak, eliminating violence and maintaining the good."
Under the organization of Situ Meitang, Anliangtang quickly emerged and became a powerful group under Hongmen Zhigongtang.
After a few years, Anliangtang has grown to 31 cities across the United States, with a huge scale and more than 20,000 members.
In 1905, Situ Meitang established the "Anliang General Hall" in New York and served as the Prime Minister. Situ Meitang himself was called the "big boss" and respectfully called "uncle".
The church also had its own legal counsel like the current community. The legal counsel at that time turned out to be the later US president, Franklin Roosevelt.
