Chapter 445 A loose Chinese gang

In Japan, where you are not familiar with the place and have no language, it is absolutely impossible to fight alone. Instead, you need to help the enemy of the White Bird family like Zhang Haotian joined Su Zhigao in the past, and this enemy is of course the best way to be the Chinese gang.

Although Chen Zhipeng was timid, he was still very familiar with the Chinese gang. He told Zhang Haotian that a gang called the Warwick Gang once developed in Tokyo and had worked with the Shiraki family several times, but many people were killed and injured, and later withdrew from Tokyo. The main hall of the Warwick Gang is not secret. It is just one hour away from Tokyo. The name is "Yoguang Martial Arts Hall". The director is a man named Liu Zhongting. Even if he is not the leader of the Warwick Gang, he is an important figure. Most of his disciples are members of the Warwick Gang.

Although the language was not clear, Chen Zhipeng told Zhang Haotian the Japanese pronunciation of Yokohama Chinatown. He had already remembered it. He hired a taxi and said it. The driver said "hi" and took him to the southwest of Yokohama.

About half an hour later, the car stopped in a place. Zhang Haotian paid the money and walked out. He looked up and saw a tall Chinese-style stone gate tower with dragon-carved phoenix carved phoenixes written on it with three large Song-style characters "China Street".

Zhang Haotian knew that he had arrived at the settlement of Japanese Chinese, Yokohama Chinatown. This Chinatown was built 130 years ago and is also known as the largest and oldest Chinatown in the world. When the founding father Sun Yat-sen failed the uprising and went into Yokohama, he accumulated strength to launch a new revolution. It was entirely due to the strong support and protection of the Chinese gathered in Yokohama Chinatown that he regained his support and protection, and finally returned to China to overthrow the Qing Dynasty and established the Republic of China.

Seeing the bustling front of the gatehouse, crowded with people, and their appearance and clothes were similar. I couldn't tell which ones were Chinese and Japanese, but there were also many blonde and blue-eyed Europeans, as lively as a temple fair in China.

Zhang Haotian also wanted to see what the Chinese settlement looked like, so he walked in with his suitcase.

As soon as he entered Chinatown, he immediately felt the geographical misalignment, as if he had returned to China from Japan at once.

It turns out that the "China Street" in Yokohama is not just a street, but a community composed of a main road and many forks. In addition to the main road, there are narrow and cramped streets in the entire area, just like the alleys in Shanghai and the alleys in Guangzhou. The alleys are covered with wires. Most of the houses are small buildings with two or three floors. The most common ones are Chinese restaurants on both sides of the street, which can be said to include all major Chinese cuisines. In addition, there are shops selling Tang suits, embroidered shoes, Chinese specialties, and Chinese herbal medicines. Each store uses advertisements and price tags.

Some of them are written separately in Chinese and Japanese, and some even write in English. The most common things on the street are buns and fried chestnuts. Those buns are huge, at least 4 times larger than the char siu buns eaten in Guangzhou teahouses. One bun can be enough for a meal, but the price is 260 yen, which is equivalent to nearly 20 yuan. Most chestnuts are packaged in some exquisite paper bags. There is almost every ten meters in the shop selling chestnuts at the door. Nearly half of tourists are holding buns or candy chestnuts in their hands while eating and shopping.

On this "China Street", Zhang Haotian also saw something that had disappeared in China, that is, the human-powered tricycle. However, each tricycle is very exquisitely made. The ones who pull the car wore short shirts from the Qing Dynasty, and most of the people who ride the car are Europeans and Americans.

This place is worthy of being the largest Chinatown in the world. Zhang Haotian walked for a long time but didn't reach the end. At this moment, he had noticed that at least 90% of those who do business on both sides of the street are Chinese, and most of them are wearing traditional Tang suits. All the goods are much more expensive than in China, but the average income of Japan is more than ten times that of China, so of course the consumption capacity is much stronger.

When he arrived in the middle of Chinatown, countless people rushed to a place like waves. He looked up and saw that it was a Guandi Temple with carved beams and painted buildings. Judging from the traffic of people, the popularity of incense could be said to have despicable Guandi Temple in China. Outside the Guandi Temple, a long dragon filled with tables, which were fortune-telling techniques such as palmaring and facial features. The business was also very popular. But when he heard those fortune tellers pointing out the "mystery" to guests in English or Japanese, he felt a little inappropriate.

It took him a morning to go through the street and he realized that it was divided into four gates. In addition to the gate building inscribed "Zhonghua Street", the blue "Chaoyang Gate" on the east side, the red "Surf Gate" on the south side, the white "Yanping Gate" on the west side, and the black "Xuanwu Gate" on the north side, which was completely designed according to Chinese ancient architecture and ancient Feng Shui.

It took me a long time to finish the main street, but I didn’t see any martial arts hall. Zhang Haotian once heard that in the past, the first thing that Chinese people made a living overseas was a restaurant, and the second was a martial arts hall. This huge Chinatown naturally could not have a martial arts hall. It was probably on the back street, so I was too lazy to look for it one by one. I felt a little hungry and saw a "Wang Ji Chinese Cuisine" in front of me, so I walked in.

The store of "Wang Ji Chinese Cuisine" is about 100 square meters. It is not a small shop in this ten-inch Chinatown, but at the end of the street, the business is not good. There are more than 20 tables in the store with only five or six tables. A tall and thin middle-aged man wearing gold glasses and a gray long gown is standing on the counter outside and looking outside, looking sad.

Seeing Zhang Haotian enter, the middle-aged man quickly asked the shop's shop to greet him. Zhang Haotian heard that his tone should be from Jiangxi. After taking the menu, he ordered a sweet and sour fish, a bacon, a yellow chicken, a rib soup, and a Mapo tofu. These dishes are only 100 yuan in China, but here costs about 700 yuan, but Zhang Haotian wanted to ask the boss for some things, so he naturally couldn't eat them too cheaply.

The boss was worried about the bad business. When he saw Zhang Haotian ordering two or three people alone, he seemed very happy and repeatedly urged his partner to go to the kitchen to serve the dishes as soon as possible.

Not long after, the dishes came one after another. Zhang Haotian ordered two bottles of beer and waved to the boss: "Boss, I can't eat so much by myself. I don't know if I can invite you to have a glass of wine."

The boss walked over and sat opposite him and smiled, "Sir, you should be from the south. How long has it been since you arrived in Japan?"

Zhang Haotian asked the guy to bring an extra bowl and chopsticks and beer glasses, and gave him a full glass and said, "It's just not long before you arrive. You should be Boss Wang. You sound like you are from the Jiangxi area. Have you made a fortune in Japan?"

The boss sighed and shook his head and said, "My surname is not Wang, but my surname is Zhou. Wang Ji was left by my father-in-law. However, I am not good at managing well and my business is getting worse and worse. Not to mention getting rich, I can't afford the money in the store."

He said, without hesitation, drank all the beer in one sip, then looked at Zhang Haotian and said, "Sir, you are so majestic, you must not be an ordinary person. I don't know what good fortune you can do when you come to Japan."

Zhang Haotian smiled and said, "I just do some small business in Tokyo and have no good fortune. However, I am often bullied by Japanese. I heard that there is a Yaoguang Martial Arts Hall on China Street, and I want to come to learn from my master. So I want to ask you where this martial arts hall is?"

When the boss heard this, he immediately slapped the table and said, "Oh, little brother, you are lucky. I asked me about this, otherwise, I would be wasting money."

As he said, he looked at Zhang Haotian again, and then said, "Little brother, tell me the truth. Come and find a martial arts school. Should you learn martial arts or a gang to protect it."

Zhang Haotian knew that the Japanese gang existed legally, so everyone did not shy away. He said immediately: "There are both, Boss Zhou, what's going on when you say I'm going to spend money?"

Boss Zhou said: "You must know that the Yaoguang Martial Arts Hall was run by the Warwick Gang. This Warwick Gang was a bit famous in Chinatown in the past. The owner Liu Zhongting had a few kung fu skills. However, since he went to Tokyo to develop in an unknown depth last year, he was hacked to death by the White Bird family. After more than a dozen of introductory disciples were disabled, he was unable to recover. Liu Zhongting was so angry that he was seriously ill that he had been half dead. There were only one three apprentices in the museum to take care of the matter. In the past, there were only twenty or thirty people left. The Yaoguang Martial Arts Hall became the Yaohei Martial Arts Hall, and the Warwick Gang also became the Huayao Gang."

Speaking of this, he said, "Little brother, since we are destined to be, I will now point you a clear road. You go east and turn right at the intersection. There is a street. The martial arts halls in Chinatown are all concentrated here. The third one is the Hongmen Martial Arts Hall. The director is Wan Xinglong, but he is a famous Hongquan master. The dragon fist is so amazing that it is more than ten people cannot get close to him. My brother-in-law is one of his disciples. He also has four younger brothers, namely Xinghu, Xingle, Xingshe. These are the five shapes of Hongquan and the five great powers. The five brothers are all powerful, and none of them are cowards. So they formed a gang, called the Five Power Gang. You go to join them, whether you are learning martial arts or doing business to find protection, keeping them to satisfy you."

Although Chen Zhipeng said that the Warwick Gang went to Tokyo to fight with the Shiraki family, many people were killed and injured, but they did not expect it to be so serious. Listening to the boss's gloating tone this week, it was like the casualties and injuries were not Chinese but Japanese. It was ruthless and ruthless, which made Zhang Haotian feel indignant and even slapped him in the face. However, he quickly controlled it and said lightly: "Oh, is that right? I'll go and see later."

Seeing Zhang Haotian's face turned cold, Boss Zhou didn't know what he said wrong, so of course he wouldn't make it boring. He said, "Please eat slowly" and returned to the counter and sat down.

After dinner, Zhang Haotian walked out of the "Wang Ji Chinese Restaurant" and walked towards the martial arts street he mentioned, but his heart felt heavy. Boss Zhou was obviously the Five Power Gang or the person protected by them. On the same land and on the same street, there were most of them resentment with the Warwick Gang in the past and even fought. However, his attitude towards his compatriots being defeated by the Japanese and was killed and injured, and he once again felt the disunity of the Chinese. As far as he knew, there were more than one million Chinese in Japan, whether they had visas or smuggled, there were at least tens of thousands of Chinese living in this huge Chinatown alone. If they could unite, what a great force would it be. How dare those Japanese bully and insult the Chinese casually?

He has been in Japan for nearly twenty days. Through hearing and seeing, the media has seen it deeply realized that among foreigners, Japan is the most admired Americans, including American culture, which has a profound influence on young Japanese people. However, it was this United States that dropped an atomic bomb on Nagasaki and Hiroshima decades ago, causing direct casualties of 70,000 and 140,000 civilians, and the death toll reached 500,000. It was also this United States that sent troops to occupy Japan and planted the American flag on the Japanese flag. From time to time, there were rumors that American soldiers defiled Japanese girls. On the other hand, China led the leadership of the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895.

The land was occupied by the Japanese again and again, the people were massacred again and again, and treasures were plundered again and again. No army has set foot on this land yet. However, the Japanese have no good feelings for the Chinese. Only a small number of people who sympathize and reflect on them, most of them are full of hostility and contempt. The Chinese's status in their hearts is even less than that of black people. This is a shame for China and should also arouse the reflection of the Chinese. There is no doubt that Japan is a typical nation that bullies the weak and fears the strong. They advocate force, but they are also prone to succumb to force. The key is whether the opponent is strong enough and whether the means are more ruthless than them.

In my mind, I had already reached an intersection. According to Boss Zhou's words, I turned right and came to a not very lively street. On both sides of the street, in addition to some fellow townspeople, there were indeed many martial arts halls. From time to time, you could see some men wearing kung fu suits coming and going in these martial arts halls, and you could clearly hear the shouts of force when practicing martial arts.

After walking about 300 meters, I had already seen nine martial arts halls. In addition to the "Hongmen Martial Arts Hall" mentioned by Boss Zhou, there are also "Tai Chi Gate" and "Yongchun Boxing Hall". After passing the middle of the street, I suddenly saw a courtyard with flying eaves and raised walls. The horizontal sign above the gate wrote the four gold-answered characters "Yaoguang Martial Arts Hall".

This "Yaoguang Martial Arts Hall" is in the middle of the street. The structure of the building is obviously more magnificent than other martial arts halls. However, unlike other martial arts halls where people come and go, the door of this martial arts hall is closed, and it is a bleak scene. I don’t know if there are anyone.

Zhang Haotian walked up a few steps and knocked on the big red iron gate of the "Yaoguang Martial Arts Hall".

After knocking for a while, I heard footsteps coming from inside. I heard the door "Gaji" and opened a small gap, revealing a black leather jacket with a very pretty appearance, but the face was a childish look. At most, the boy of seventeen or eighteen years old was still tall, and he should be about 1.8 meters tall, but he was a little thin.

The young man looked at Zhang Haotian with a vigilant look and said, "Who are you? What are you here to do?"

Zhang Haotian smiled slightly and said, "Little brother, my name is Zhang Tianlang. I just went to Tokyo from China to do business not long ago. I was always bullied by the Japanese. I heard that Master Liu from the 'Yaoguang Martial Arts Hall' is very good at kung fu and often takes charge of us Chinese. So I wanted to come and see if I could learn a move and half of the stance."

The young man's face calmed down a little when he heard this, but then shook his head and said, "Go back. My master is sick and no longer accepts disciples. My master is going to close the house for the time being. You can come and see it in a few months. Maybe my master can accept you by then."

Zhang Haotian heard from Boss Zhou that Liu Zhongting's disciples were seriously ill since they were killed by the White Niao family. The "Yaoguang Martial Arts Hall" was managed by his third disciples. It is estimated that this young man was the disciple of the third disciple, so he called Liu Zhongting the master.

Since the "Warwick Gang" has fought with the White Biao family, he naturally knows them a lot. And he has already arrived at the "Yaoguang Martial Arts Hall" and how could he not see Liu Zhongting? He immediately said: "Little brother, I admire Master Liu's reputation and came from Tokyo. Even if he doesn't accept disciples, I want to hear the advice. Just let me see him."

Seeing Zhang Haotian's expression and sincere words, the young man looked around and looked around. He was sure that he was the only one, so he nodded and said, "Okay, it's not easy for you to travel a long distance. My master's illness has improved a lot. Although he doesn't accept disciples, it should be fine to give you some advice. Come with me."

As he said, he pulled the iron door a little open, let Zhang Haotian in, and then closed the door again.

Zhang Haotian stood behind the door and looked forward, but saw a large courtyard of four or five hundred square meters in front of him. There were some wooden stakes for practicing martial arts and stone locks for practicing strength. However, it was empty at the moment, and no one was practicing in the courtyard. In front and on the left and right sides, there were rows of wing rooms, with 20 or 30 rooms of all sizes.

Although this place is not the busiest street, it is undoubtedly a glorious past to have such a large area of ​​place.

Seeing Zhang Haotian looking at the hall, the young man was afraid that he would look down on the martial arts hall, so he said in a very regretful tone: "You happened to be here now. When we were the most crowded in the martial arts hall, there were more than a thousand students, and there were many Japanese. We had to take turns practicing martial arts. Now... Now that we have some things to close, you will of course not see that kind of lively scene."

As he was speaking, he heard a deep voice from a man from the front room and said, "Xiaowei, who are you talking to?"

As they said, two people walked out of the room. The two men were about the same size and figure, with moderate figures and strong figures. They were wearing two Tang suits, one white and one blue, but the white hair was already gray, and they were about sixty or seventy years old. The one wearing the blue Tang suit was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a national face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and quite imposing.

Zhang Haotian understood that these two people were naturally Liu Zhongting, the owner of the "Yaoguang Martial Arts Hall", and his third disciples. Without waiting for the young man named "Xiaowei" to answer, he put down his suitcase, bowed to the two, and looked at the old man and said, "This must be Master Liu Zhongting, my name is Zhang Tianlang. I went to Tokyo to do business not long ago, but I encountered people from the White Biao family. Now I can't do business. I heard that a Warwick Gang dared to take control of the Chinese, so I wanted to come and surrender to Master Liu's disciple to deal with the White Biao family together."

When Liu Zhongting heard Zhang Haotian say the four words "White Bird Family", he immediately showed a silent look on his face, and then waved his hand and said, "Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry, the Warwick Gang has long disbanded, and the Yaoguang Martial Arts Hall has also suspended the teaching of disciples. You should leave."

Zhang Haotian could leave, so he quickly carried the suitcase and said, "Master Liu, I really came here to learn the arts sincerely. Look, I have packed up all my things."

Liu Zhongting shook his head and said, "I'm so sorry, I really can't keep you. Mr. Zhang, since you are here, I'll give you a word."

Zhang Haotian walked up to him with his suitcase and said, "Please give me advice from Master Liu."

Liu Zhongting said: "Chinese people do business in Japan, they must do the nine words "If you can tolerate, you will be patient, if you can't, you will be patient." Otherwise, it will be very troublesome. If you can't even return, no one can save you."
