Chapter 97 Happy to help (2)
Liang Cheng and Huang Sande exchanged a few greetings, looked at Wang Xuanzhang and Ma Yuanding, who stood behind Huang Sande, who seemed neither humble nor arrogant, and said in a righteous manner: "Since Liang met Brother Huang, he has never seen Brother Huang bring anyone to see him. The two brothers are extraordinary, and I wonder what it is important to see Liang?"
Hearing this, Huang Sande smiled and introduced the fake identities of Wang Xuanzhang and Ma Yuanding of the Republic of Lan Fang, and explained in detail the purpose of the two.
"Oh?" After hearing Huang Sande's words, Liang Cheng was surprised and asked in disbelief: "The Republic of Lanfang has really been rebuilt? Do you really have so much funds?"
"That's right!" Wang Xuanzhang replied in a stern manner: "I have always heard that Lord Liang is polite to overseas Chinese. It is not easy for me to establish a country in overseas Chinese. I hope Lord Liang will deal with it more so that the United States can accept our request for establishing diplomatic relations as soon as possible."
Liang Cheng turned his head to Huang Sande, showing an inquiring look.
Huang Sande nodded affirmatively to Liang Cheng and said in a deep voice: "After the original Lanfang Republic was eliminated by the Dutch and Indonesians, Xia An, Zheng Yuanshan and others were dissatisfied with the Dutch colonial rule and reorganized the Lanfang Republic Army.
Xia An, Zheng Yuanshan and others were wise and decisive, with strong financial resources. Most importantly, they no longer fought all day long like the previous Lanfang Republic, but were all united. Moreover, they also organized and trained the oppressed and bullied Chinese to fight against the Dutch and Indonesians with weapons. Therefore, the New Lanfang Republic Army quickly defeated the Indonesians and the Dutch in succession.
Now, the Lanfang Republican Army has occupied most of West Borneo and has gathered hundreds of thousands of Chinese compatriots under its rule. In order to purchase guns and ammunition to ensure the fruits of victory, people were sent to the United States to achieve the goal of establishing diplomatic relations with money. Brother Liang must help in this matter!"
After hearing Huang Sande's words, Liang Cheng clenched his fists and said happily: "If this is true, my overseas Chinese have hope! The overseas Chinese in Borneo have always been rich, but they don't know how to unite, so they were divided one by one by the Dutch, resulting in the destruction of the country and the family. Now, there are heroes who can confront Westerners. If they can get the support of the United States, they will be fine. I have no choice but to do this, but I have a request, hoping that the two brothers can agree."
With the wealthy and powerful People's Liberation Army behind the scenes, Wang Xuanzhang said confidently: "Mr. Liang, no matter what the request is, our Lanfang Republic will do our best to do it for you!"
"Okay!" Liang Cheng said happily: "My request is very simple. It is to ask your Lanfang Republic to spend some of the money to help and help the affected overseas Chinese in San Francisco. If you are willing to do this, Liang promises to get your business done!"
Huang Sande, Wang Xuanzhang and Ma Yuanding laughed at the same time when they heard this request.
After laughing a few times, seeing Liang Cheng frowning and looking at them unhappily, Huang Sande quickly said, "Brother Liang, your request is really not a requirement. Brother Wang and his friends were already helping and helping the Chinese compatriots a few months ago. Moreover, they did better than us. Not only did they provide free food, clothing, housing and transportation to the victims, but they also taught them to learn literature and literacy. Even I am a little envious of the lives of those victims now!" At the end, Huang Sande showed a little envious.
"Good!" After hearing Huang Sande's words, Liang Chengxi chased Yan Kai and praised Wang Xuanzhang and Ma Yuanding, saying, "You are the real heroes and heroes! Don't worry, after I arrived in Washington, I will go to the US Secretary of State Luo Tuo. Based on the conditions you put forward, I believe the US government will accept it immediately."
After a pause, Liang Cheng shook his head and sighed: "It's ridiculous that those revolutionaries are still obsessed with the pockets of the overseas Chinese in San Francisco at this time, which really makes me a little angry."
"Cough cough cough!" Huang Sande suddenly coughed, his face becoming a little embarrassed.
Wang Xuanzhang, who knew that Huang Sande had been secretly raising funds for the revolutionaries, quickly changed the topic and praised Liang Cheng with a smile: "Mr. Liang has excellent diplomatic skills and has won unanimous praise from people at home and abroad. What is even more rare is that Mr. Liang is patriotic and has great care for overseas Chinese. With diplomatic officials like Mr. Liang, it is really a blessing for me to overseas Chinese!"
"Hey!" After hearing Wang Xuanzhang's words, Liang Cheng showed a look of depression on his face and sighed, "How can I have such blessings now for my overseas Chinese? My brother, this diplomat, is really frustrated!"
This time it was Wang Xuanzhang's turn to be embarrassed. He changed the subject again and said sincerely: "Mr. Liang, our Lanfang Republic is still in its inception period, and we urgently need an excellent diplomatic cadre like Lord Liang to join. Therefore, I take the liberty to ask Lord Liang to serve as a diplomat in our Lanfang Republic. I wonder what Lord Liang wants to do?"
Liang Cheng was depressed and unsuccessful in the Qing Dynasty. He heard this and said happily: "Okay, I can negotiate with the Americans in this way, and I can be more legitimate."
Seeing that Wang Xuanzhang and others were all happy, Liang Cheng joked: "Brother Wang, if you become a diplomat of your rich Lanfang Republic, you will have to get a double salary!"
Everyone joked for a while, after eating and drinking, they discussed it for a long time, and Huang Sande, Wang Xuanzhang and other three left reluctantly.
Near the center of Chinatown in San Francisco, there is a completely Chinese-style building. The blue bricks and green tiles make people feel friendly. Under the majestic gatehouse, the three big words "Zhigongtang" are engraved on a wooden plaque on a black background.
At this time, in the Zhongyi Lobby of the Hongmen Zhigong Hall, all the influential figures in the Zhigong Hall gathered in San Francisco, waiting for the arrival of their leader Huang Sande. Below these influential figures above ten thousand people, including Song Guangzheng, the deputy leader of Zhigong Hall, 7 owners of the eight halls inside and outside, as well as more than a dozen Xiang Chang, Mengzheng and others with higher status.
After waiting for a while, the hall master Mao Yule asked the deputy leader Song Guangzheng: "Senior Brother Song, Brother Huang suddenly summoned everyone to come today. I wonder what's important?"
"I don't know either." Song Guangzheng frowned and replied, "Mr. Huang went to meet the Chinese who rescued the victims yesterday, but he did not return overnight. Today he took two strangers to meet Lord Liang, and now he asked us to wait for the discussion here. From this point of view, his summoning everyone this time must be related to those two people."
At this moment, a loud shout of "The dragon head is here!" sounded outside, and everyone hurried out to greet him.
When we arrived outside the lobby, we saw Huang Sande, Wang Xuanzhang and Ma Yuanding strode over with joy.
