The central area of ​​the embankment is the fifth county. The Li family mansion is located on the edge of Confucius Avenue across the fifth county and the sixth county. The Wujin Courtyard has a strong traditional Chinese architectural style. It adopts some French characteristics along the street, showing a unique architectural style of Eurasian integration.

The Li family was very prosperous. Many branches were produced in several generations. The second-generation second-bedroom, third-bedroom and fourth-bedroom were all divided into one industry at that time, and they set up their own businesses and spread their branches.

Due to the changes in the current situation, I rarely traveled with the second house in my hometown in the mainland, and I almost lost contact with the third house who moved to Taiwan with the National Government. The fourth house has always lived in Hong Kong, has a lot of movement and has business dealings.

Li Guanyun's generation coincided with the War of Resistance. As the eldest son of the house, he had to inherit his ancestral property and had been taking care of the business of the smaller Vietnam, which was affected by the war. He did not join the War of Resistance like Guanyu, Guancheng, Guanjun, Guanmian, Guanqin and other brothers and sisters.

It is difficult to start a business, and it is even more difficult to maintain a business!

Facts have proved that Li Guanyun is very business-minded and can still manage shipping companies, rice factories and wood factories in such a turbulent situation. Even when France surrendered, the Japanese army entered Vietnam, the people of Saigon were panic, and when overseas Chinese fled to Thailand, they bought dozens of stores at a low price. Now, just collecting store rent is a considerable income.

So much so that Chinese people on the dike often say that the Li family is rich, and that Brother Guan Yun didn’t see a street in Saigon all night was “wet and wet” (a small meaning).

Compared with his business achievements, he seems a little "unsatisfactory" in inheriting the family line.

The original wife died of labor while giving birth to Li Weimin. The couple fell in love until her son was six years old. The current wife's surname is Ma, and she is the cousin of the overseas Chinese leader of the Dioran and the head of the Chaozhou Gang. Over the years, she gave birth to a half-sister for Li Weimin.

Seeing the injustice on the road, I dared to challenge the Pingchuan school lion. In Li Weiqing's eyes, the brother who had just returned from studying abroad was definitely a big hero. He held his chin and said with a respectful look: "Brother, we all know about you. We said that we were good at fighting and said that you were a big hero!"

The little girl was wearing a white shirt and a black skirt. She sat on the desk with a very unrealistic look. Her two feet wearing small leather shoes were hanging on the air, and she was very comfortable. Her head was buckled on her right shoulder with her small braided head leaning on her right shoulder. Her big eyes were blinking in a playful way, and her nose was slightly upturned, revealing a naughty look.

Innocence, anyone who sees you will like you from the bottom of your heart.

Li Weimin put down his pen and looked up and smiled bitterly: "A bunch of idle gangsters, what big heroes? Besides, I was beaten like a pig's head?"

The little girl said angrily: "Qiyuan is cruel and ruthless, and he does everything he wants. I really can't figure out why the French and Baoda still indulge him."

Li Weimin closed the notebook and picked up a newspaper: "If you have a gun, you will be the king of grass heads. There is nothing strange about it. Besides, the French are now clay Buddhas who cross the river and cannot protect themselves. They are beaten to the Vietnam League in a mess, so they have no energy to deal with him."

The war situation in North Vietnam was in danger. In addition to a few big cities, South Vietnam has also lost control. Reconciliation, Gaotai Church and some armed forces under various banners have been divided. The once arrogant Gaul rooster has become a crossing rat that everyone calls for. It is said that many French manor owners have now become prisoners and live a life worse than death at the guns of Vietnamese.

I don’t know what will happen to Xidi in the future. Li Weiqing didn’t want to talk about these unhappy things, and pointed to his notebook and asked curiously: “Brother, what are you writing by locking yourself in the room these days?”

Since you come, you should be at ease. Since you want to take revenge, you must have a plan. No matter what plan, it cannot be separated from the grasp of the current situation and the funds required to implement the plan.

A good memory is not as good as a bad pen, for fear of forgetting it over time. These days, I have been recalling historical events that will happen in the next few decades and speculative opportunities that can make a lot of money.

These contents are too important to be written directly in Chinese, English or French. The Chinese pinyin, the simplified Chinese that has not yet been created, are mixed with English, French, Yue and Traditional Chinese, just like a heavenly book, and she naturally cannot understand it.

Li Weimin turned his head and looked in the mirror, laughing self-deprecatingly: "I didn't write anything, I just kill time. You see, my brother has become like this, it must be embarrassing to go out."

My brother is very handsome and can't be disfigured.

The little girl suddenly jumped off the desk, carefully held his face, and whispered: "The doctor said that as long as you don't eat soy sauce and don't scratch it randomly, you won't leave scars. It's much better here."

Everyone has a love for beauty. Li Weimin also doesn't want to be unable to go out to see people in the future. He asked skeptically: "Really?"

"Really, it's much better."

She picked up the ointment, smeared it gently, and suddenly said with a smile: "Brother, you can't go to see your sister-in-law like this now. Why don't you write a letter and I'll send it to her for you."

He occupied Li Weimin's body and took over Li Weimin's trouble.

The tradition of Xiti Chinese community is very well maintained. Marriage matters focus on the orders of parents and matchmakers. When he was six years old, his grandfather decided to make a marriage for him with a very historically significant baby marriage and asked him to marry the daughter of Wu Guibin, a Fujian overseas Chinese.

The reason why it is said to be "very historically significant" starts with the historical origins of the Chinese in Saigon.

The Chinese in Saigon mainly immigrate to Guangdong, Fujian and Hainan provinces, including Guangxi, Hunan, Hubei, Yunnan and Guizhou, but only a few.

It was extremely difficult for ancestors to travel across the ocean to work hard in Vietnam. They were not familiar with the place and they had to live together if they wanted to survive. So according to dialect and their hometown, they gradually formed five gangs, namely Guangzhou, Chaozhou, Hakka, Fujian and Hainan, and established the five gangs of Guangzhou (Guangfu), Yi'an (Chaozhou), Chongzheng (Hakka), Erfu (South Fujian) and Qiongfu (Hainan). They were dedicated to uniting their hometowns, helping the weak, and maintaining social welfare and education.

The Wugang Association has a club and office. It has managed internal affairs of the Chinese community under the authorization of the French. It has funds donated by the gang members, and has gang properties that specializes in resettlement of new immigrants. It has schools, hospitals, and ancestral halls.

For example, the Chengzhi Middle School of Fujian Gang, Fujian Middle School, the Yi'an Middle School of Chaozhou Gang, the Suicheng Middle School of Guangfu Gang, the Guangzhao Middle School, and the Sanmin Primary School of Hainan Gang; and the Liuyi Hospital of Chaozhou Gang, Fushan Hospital of Fujian, Chongzheng Hospital of Hakka Gang, Guangzhao Hospital, Zhongzheng Hospital, Hainan Gang's Hainan Hospital, etc.

The sacrificial places of various gangs such as Erfu Temple, Tianhou Temple, Wenling Guild Hall are even more incenseful, and believers even include many Vietnamese.

When you go out, everyone has their own circle, and it will be difficult to survive if you leave the circle. Therefore, not only are the Chinese in Saigon rarely intermarriage with Vietnamese, but they also rarely intermarry among different gangs.

The Wu family is the partner of the Li family for nearly a hundred years, and the relationship is extraordinary. The two families have always wanted to break the concept of the gang industry and consolidate the relationship, but it was not realized until Li Weimin's generation for various reasons.

Almost everyone in this marriage with the famous overseas Chinese leaders in Saigon knows that it is not easy to regret whether it is the Li family or the Wu family, because it is related to the credibility of the two major families for nearly a hundred years.

Li Weimin is accustomed to free love and advocates marriage autonomy, which is undoubtedly annoying to him. What makes him even more ridiculous is that the fiancée named Wu Lijun is only 17 years old this year, and is still a child like this cheap sister in front of him.

He sighed inwardly, holding the newspaper and muttered, "What sister-in-law, I haven't entered the door yet, let's talk about it in a few years."

The little girl didn't think so. She snatched the newspaper and said seriously: "Brother, it's the best for being unfilial and having three missed queens. You are the only man in our family. How can you get married sooner than you? And the old lady of the Wu family agreed with our father that she would let you get married when Li Jun's sister-in-law celebrates her 18th birthday."

"next year?"

"Well," the little girl focused her head and confirmed with a serious look: "My parents are preparing the dowry, and Uncle Wu is preparing the dowry. The managers of Daluotian Restaurant, Tianhong Hotel, and Yadong Restaurant have been here several times and asked them to hold the wedding. Even the bosses of Taiping Theater and Daguangming Theater have come and asked how many plays they will prepare when they are done."

Let’s talk about next year’s things next year, and now there are more important things to do.

Li Weimin weighed it, took off a top hat from the shelf, picked up the sunglasses, turned around and smiled, "Qingqing, you don't have to go to school in the afternoon, so accompany me out for a walk."
