No regrets ninety-two

Chapter 801 The Godfather
After finishing the matter of helping Giuliani, Wu Xiaozheng's main task in New York has basically been completed.

But he was unable to set foot on the return journey for the time being.

As for the reason why he couldn't return, it was naturally because of Ma Li's injury.

Because it was a gunshot wound, even if the operation was successful, she had to make sure that her wound was not infected and the scab had healed successfully before she could fly back to China with confidence.

Wu Xiaozheng has been quite relaxed these days.

Apart from going to the hospital to see Ma Li on a regular basis every day and accompanying her by the way, he just visited New York.

He even bought another copy of Troup's The Art of the Deal and read it again.

Of course, he also bought a lot of other books that he was interested in.

After all, in this era, many American bestsellers have not been translated into China.

With the book, he spent more time in the hotel.

This day, when he was reading a book quietly in the hotel, Zhuang Ningwen rushed in in a hurry.

"Wu Xiaozheng, let's go, my grandfather wants to see you."

Your grandpa wants to see me?

For Mao?
Could it be because I want to abduct you to China?

Wu Xiaozheng was a little puzzled.

But elders please, dare not resign.

He followed Zhuang Ningwen into the car.

To his surprise, the car didn't stop in the lower part of Manhattan, but drove straight to a villa on the Upper East Side that wasn't too small.

This Zhuang Ningwen's family background is not bad!

At the very least, her grandpa might be a little bit different!
Wu Xiaozheng immediately came to such a judgment.

You know, the Upper East Side is the most famous rich area in New York, known as the "Gold Coast" of New York, where rich people from finance and investment banks gather.

It seems to confirm his guess.

As soon as he entered the door of this somewhat quaint villa, he found that in the hall of the villa, Chen Hongsheng and He Shiyuan, two big men from the Hong family, were there, and they were also respectfully accompanying a hale and hearty old man.

The old man is a little old.

According to Wu Xiaozheng's preliminary judgment, he is at least about 80 years old.

Zhuang Ningwen's grandfather is so old?

Also, her grandfather wanted to see her, so why did she call Chen Hongsheng and He Shiyuan, two big brothers from the Hong family?
He was still wondering, but He Shiyuan stood up and said, "Junior brother, come quickly, I have met Mr. Wu."

He Shiyuan's attitude is not generally respectful.

"I have seen the old man."

Wu Xiaozheng didn't dare to neglect, he hurried forward and bowed.

The old man said, "Are you Yun Cong's little apprentice? You are quite talented! Sit down."

This tone carries the majesty of a superior.

What surprised Wu Xiaozheng even more was that he seemed to know He Yuncong very well, and he still spoke in a presumptuous tone.

No wonder even Chen Hongsheng and He Yuncong respect him so much!

Wu Xiaozheng began to guess the origin of this old man.

Chen Hongsheng also spoke: "Little brother, Mr. Wu is an old senior of our Hongmen, and also the permanent general counsel of the Hongmen Association. He has something to talk to you about, so you can answer it truthfully."

Wu Xiaozheng's heart skipped a beat immediately.

Hongmen forever general counsel!
He immediately thought of a legendary figure.

In the previous life, there was a movie with the theme of Chinatown in New York, and it was still a little famous, and that was "Detective Chinatown".

In this movie, there is an old man named Wu Zhiyuan, who is known as Uncle Qi by people in the Jianghu.

In the movie, Seventh Uncle is the godfather of Chinatown, an absolute boss.

Many people think that the existence of Seventh Uncle in the movie is just a fictional character.

But many people on the road know that this character actually has a prototype.

His prototype is Wu Jiazhao.

The background of this Wu Jiazhao is really unusual. He is a legendary figure in New York's Chinatown after Situ Meitang.

In 18, Situ Meitang came to Boston and established Anliangtang, under the banner of "Eliminate the strong and help the weak, eliminate violence and make good".Anliangtang soon became a powerful group under the Hongmen Zhigongtang, and finally developed to have Anliangtang in 94 cities across the United States, with a large scale and more than 31 members.

In 1905, Situ Meitang established the "Anliang General Church" in New York and served as the prime minister himself.

Situ Meitang himself is called "big brother" and honored as "uncle".The church also had its own legal counsel, just like the current society. The legal counsel at that time turned out to be the two later US presidents—Franklin and Roosevelt.

In 1904, Mr. Sun went to the United States as the "big brother of the Hongmen" to carry out activities. Situ Meitang was moved by Mr. Sun's ideals and began to support him with all his strength.

Later, under the influence of Mr. Sun, Hongmen established the Zhigong Party, but the Anliangtang established by Situ Meitang still existed in the form of a subordinate hall of Hongmen.

Within Hongmen, Anliangtang is a serious gang-like hall, but its main activity location in the early years was on the east coast of the United States.

On the west coast of the United States, there is also a well-known church with a serious gang nature, called Xie Sheng Tang, which is comparable in strength to An Liang Tang.

Both of these two halls bear the name of Hongmen, and one is on the east coast, and the other is on the west coast. There was no conflict in the first place.

But because of the expansion, the two gangs began to overlap in business and geography, and also began to have conflicts.

From the 90s to the 30s, the conflict between these two halls escalated, and a 30-year-long Chinese gang dispute began. They made Chinatown a mess, and dozens of people died in a scuffle. people.

In the following time, even after the attack by the US government, the conflict between the two halls has not been eased, and then they have experienced several wars between the halls.

This conflict was finally relieved by the appearance of one person.

This person is Wu Jiazhao.

Wu Jiazhao was born in Taishan, Guangdong, and immigrated to the United States when he was young, and settled in New York City.

Since he was a child, he has been closely related to Chinese gangs, and later joined Xiep Shing Tong.

In 1935, Wu Jiazhao was sentenced to 17 years in prison for being involved in a robbery case.

But after he was released from prison, he immediately became the leader of Xie Sheng Tang.

After Wu Jiazhao took charge of Xie Sheng Tang, he immediately decided to end the war between the halls.

He began to thread needles, and finally made Xie Sheng Tang form an alliance with An Liang Tang, who had been hostile for many years, and began to unite with the outside world.

Because of his existence, the war between the two churches finally came to an end, and the alliance between the two churches has been maintained until now.

Therefore, Wu Jiazhao is very prestigious in Chinatown. He can quell all kinds of disputes in Chinatown with a single sentence, and both black and white will buy him.

Because of his prestige, he became the general counsel of many Chinese associations, including Hongmen.

At the World Hongmen Conference in 1992, more than 100 representatives from all over the world jointly announced the establishment of the World Hongmen Association.Because of Wu Jiazhao's seniority, prestige and status in the Hongmen, he is honored as the permanent general counsel by the World Hongmen Association.

This is Wu Jiazhao, the godfather of Chinatown, respected by the world as the Seventh Uncle.

Wu Xiaozheng is a little confused now.

If this Mr. Wu is Wu Jiazhao, then this is a big deal.

He began to feel uneasy.

What does this old godfather want to talk to me about?
