Chapter 45 Kung Fu(1/2)
"It's too much to deceive people!"
Li Fushou punched the table with a heavy punch, and his young face became a little distorted due to anger. The slap on his face was so painful that it was intertwined with humiliation and anger.
Fiona took a step back in fear and stood aside silently. She knew something was wrong.
I was not suitable for staying here. I was afraid of disturbing my husband's thinking, so I hesitated and walked out gently, and closed the door with my backhand.
In the study room
Li Fushou slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, walked to the hotel window, and looked over at the street view of Detroit City with chimneys.
Although it was a sunny afternoon, the sky was blocked by dark clouds covered by thick smoke, and the large chimneys of the factory were still spitting out black smoke, which represented the power of industry in the steam era.
The tones on the street are gray, and most pedestrians wear gray-white shirts, dome felt hats on their heads, and roll up their sleeves to reveal their furry arms. They are the most common group of workers in this city.
After taking continuous deep breaths, Li Fushou forced himself to suppress the violent fluctuations in his heart.
Now he seemed to be an active volcano that exploded at the touch, full of resentment.
Speaker Edward was provoking with extreme actions. He was not afraid of big things. He used a tough attitude to tell Queensland voters that he would crack down on Chinese forces and prove that he was more competent in the position of governor, trying to turn the tables at the last moment of running for governor.
He reacted too much and hit the other person's thoughts.
Stay calm and the face is hit "slap" sound, and it is not ruled out that the other party will have more extraordinary actions in the future.
The joint complaint, when it comes to the arrogant British Empire naval bureaucracy, it will only be thrown into the wastebasket.
Proper reaction may provoke the sensitive nerves of white voters, which is equivalent to helping Speaker Edward.
Think about it
Li Fushou couldn't help but breathe a breath of air conditioning. This move seemed reckless, but it was a good chess to turn the game around, and it was quite uncomfortable to deal with it.
At this moment, there were more than ten followers around him, except for Fiona and two personal bodyguard masters, and there were no one who could negotiate.
The Red River Valley is still rising too fast, has too little foundation, and has too few people to use it!
Li Fushou took a deep breath of a Cuban cigar, and his figure was covered with light green smoke, emitting a strong tobacco fragrance.
No… I still have a card in my hand.
The upper class figures who can be involved in the United States basically have no say in this matter. They run as fast as rabbits, and they are afraid to avoid it.
But one person who can intervene in this matter is Mr. George Higgins, chairman of Higgins Trading Company. This British-American is profit-oriented, bold and dares to intervene in hot issues internationally.
The Cuban affairs were very sensitive, involving many powerful powers such as Britain, the United States, Spain, etc., but Higgins actually managed this matter. In the name of international humanitarian actions, he rescued the native white women in the concentration camp and sent them to Australia, winning him great honor.
Now that the Red River Valley ranch was bombarded by British warships, it is completely reasonable to stop accepting native white women from Cuba for security reasons.
Li Fushou thought about it and felt that before reacting, he should have a good time with Higgins and reach a tacit understanding between the two sides.
Suddenly stopping accepting native white women will be regarded as a threat by the other party, and the consequences are very serious.
The idea has been decided
Li Fushou stood up suddenly, and the person who served the door that happened said, "Snap time to pack your luggage, arrange for someone to book the nearest train ticket to New York, and wire the Chairman of Higgins Company to inform us of the news that we are about to arrive in New York."
"As for orders, sir."
Just finished speaking
Fiona walked in from outside the door and looked at Li Fushou with a worried look on his face.
Li Fushou smiled when he saw this, "I'm fine. Maybe your shopping plan is going to be ruined. We are about to set off for New York, where you can enjoy shopping happily."
"Oh, that's great!"
Fiona immediately turned from worry to joy, jumped up excitedly, hugged Li Fushou like an octopus, and pecked him on the face.
She has the romance of a French girl, passionate and happiness is that simple.
The soft jade was in her arms, but unfortunately Li Fushou had no intention of sacrificing it at this moment. He reluctantly smiled and patted her back. Fiona's fair cheeks suddenly turned red, and he had to slip off from him and said in a low voice;
"That...I'll go pack my clothes."
After saying that, he turned around and ran away, leaving only a faint fragrance.
New York
Big Apple City, the city of dreams for immigrants.
In the summer of 1877,
The crowds of people were surging in the square of New York City Central Railway Station, and the end of the Atlantic route was not far away, New York Harbor.
The crowds were filled with people, and passengers who had just arrived at their destination on the Atlantic cruise line were crowded in the square, looking around, looking novel in everything, looking like a country bumpkin.
These European immigrants from Ireland, Leverkusen or Lyon came to the city of New York, where there were tall buildings and pedestrians shoulder to shoulder, and truly felt the impact of the American power in the steam industry era.
The coachman cursed loudly and drove away the pedestrians. Several teenagers wearing baseball caps rushed through the crowd quickly, and put their hands into other people's pockets when the person was not paying attention...
New York, a city of hope tomorrow, is full of vitality.
"Dear Lee, I like this city, noisy and full of vitality. Can we stay here for more time?"
Fiona lay on the carriage window and looked out, her eyes were not enough, and she suddenly screamed.
It turned out that a clever boy climbed onto the carriage and was looking inside through the glass...
A big hand like an iron plier held the boy's thin neck, and swung it hard into the crowd, causing a lot of screams and scolding.
Shaolin lay master Fu Peng saw this little pickpocket wanting to be ill, so he threw him out of the car, but he never thought about it but poked the hornet's nest.
Places like cruise terminals and railway stations have always been places where all the religions and the worlds gather.
The New York gangs are powerful here, and even if the passengers lose things, they dare not speak out. It is useless to find the police.
The world is like a crow, and these people are colluding together, forcing them to buy and sell, cheat, steal, and steal, and have their own rules in the dark world.
Seeing the little pickpocket being thrown out of the car, the luxurious carriage was blocked by a crowded crowd, and it was hard to move forward. Several burly men not far away looked at each other. The words "big fat sheep" suddenly came to my mind, and I rolled up my sleeves and walked over.
With a shout, dozens of people gathered around him immediately.
"Li, these Italians are scolding us, saying that we have broken his brother and have to compensate for a large amount of medical expenses and be responsible for future living expenses. It's too much."
Fiona's beautiful eyes were so wide, full of indignation, and her little mouth pouted.
Li Fushou smiled slightly, closed his eyes calmly and asked, "How much do they say they want?"
"It's $500, my goodness... these rude men might as well go rob."
"Then what do you think they are doing?"
Fiona then reacted and muttered, "How dare they in full view of everyone... Is there no law and order here?"
"Maybe there is, but not the laws and order of the United States, but the underground order of the Italian gangs, on which they have the final say."
"Oh my God... I can't believe it."
Li Fushou still closed his eyes and rested. There were two masters with superb skills sitting outside the carriage. If he could be bullied by the New York gang, he would have nothing to say.
The Italian gangsters outside the carriage relied on the large number of people and rushed up in English, and there were other slangs in Italy, which were inseparable from the four words "extortion".
Both the masters Fu Peng and Hu Tiesheng understood, and they were really laughed at by these scoundrels.
"Brother Tiesheng, please stay with your boss. Be careful not to disturb the villains. I will deal with these thieves so that they can buzz like flies." Fu Peng didn't take these thieves seriously.
Hu Tiesheng got off the carriage seat and stood side by side with him, saying;
"Your Shaolin Kung Fu is hard to make a hard horse. At the least, it will hurt your tendons and bones, and at the worst, it will hurt your life. It is better to guard your good boss and let me solve it."
"this……"
"I'm going to take action with you, so don't worry."
"Then I'll trouble Brother Tiesheng."
The two of them didn't take each other seriously, and immediately angered each other. Several strong men showed off the shining blades in their arms and rushed up, and blood was about to splatter on the spot.
Just then
Master Hu Tiesheng suddenly took a big step towards the other party, and waved the sharp blade on his side, instantly approaching him, shaking his waist and shoulders, and exerting force with a sudden "hey" sound.
The strong man actually flew high as if he was hit by a four-wheeled carriage, screaming and falling to the back.
Master Hu Tiesheng moved quickly and quickly. After a pair of iron arms that were tempered for thousands of times were like a spiritual snake. After a muffled sound of "crackling" sound, more than twenty evil people had already lie down in front of him.
Those who hold their hands and head, hold their waists and eat dogs, all kinds of ugly things are different.
The others were so scared that they dodged a large area, and no one dared to step forward again.
Where did this come from the fierce man?
"Thief, dare you?"
Suddenly, a loud shout was like a bolt from the blue. It turned out that a villain lying on the ground took out a revolver from his arms, intending to shoot the black gun.
Seeing this, Fu Peng shouted loudly, and his big feet stomped on the stone slab road. The hard stone slabs instantly split into pieces, and then kicked out...
"Bang bang..." After two muffled sounds
The gangster who was pursuing the gun was hit by a heavy rock. This move was furious and did not hold back. In an instant, blood splattered everywhere, and the gangster fainted without saying a word.
These skills were rising and falling, and when the onlookers saw that the dust had settled, they were silent for two or three seconds, warm applause and cheers burst out.
To be continued...
