Reborn Brazil as a Plutocrat

While Fang Lang was still weighing the pros and cons of Fang Xinshui joining Hongmen.

The old man sighed and said:

"Oh! Hongmen? I didn't expect to go around in circles and come back again?

If you really want to open a Hongmen church in Brazil, you don’t have to go to such trouble.

Lang'er, your grandfather was actually a member of the Hongmen back then.

According to what he said, the reason why he joined the Kingdom of Heaven was because Commander Qin of the Kingdom of Heaven was a member of the Hongmen.

He also dislikes Qin Shuai’s personality.”

After hearing what the old man said, the whole family looked at him in shock.

When Fang Lang discussed the history and program of Hongmen with Fang Xinshui at home, the old man acted as if he was hearing something new, and he never revealed his identity.

Unexpectedly, today when it was mentioned that uncle Fang Xinshui was going to join Hongmen, a giant Buddha exploded.

The Qin Shuai the old man mentioned should be Qin Rigang, one of the main generals of the Kingdom of Heaven.

But Fang Lang didn't expect that the Prime Minister of Tianguan, one of the eight most important people in the Kingdom of Heaven, was also born in Hongmen.

It seems that the people in Hongmen are really flexible. In order to participate in the anti-Qing cause, they actually joined this God-worshipping organization.

"Grandpa, when we were discussing Hongmen at home before, I never heard you say that Grandpa has such an identity!"

Fang Lang asked quickly.

When the old man saw everyone in the family looking at him, he sighed and said:

"Hi! At first, your great-grandfather didn't mention the Hongmen incident to me. It wasn't until he got older and always liked to think about the past that I heard about this organization from his mouth.

However, your uncle said that there are many branches in Hongmen in your hometown, and some people do some things that are not worthy of publicity.

It made him feel shameless, so he rarely mentioned this identity again.

As for why I didn’t talk about the code words of Hongmen’s rules that you discussed.

That’s because I don’t understand it either! I just heard it as a novelty.”

Fang Lang and Fang Xinshui looked at each other, not expecting this to be the case.

However, the old man's meaning was expressed very clearly. It seems that Fang Lang's grandfather was really not a simple person back then.

The reason for his lower status may be that he joined the Kingdom of Heaven relatively late and at a relatively young age!

Speaking of Hongmen, in fact, the original intention of its establishment was not to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty. This can be seen from the fact that there were very few political words in Hongmen's original "Thirty-six Oaths".

This situation gradually changed after the Opium War. In order to resist the Qing Dynasty and seek asylum, many intellectuals joined Hongmen, which changed the personnel structure of Hongmen, which was mainly farmers and small craftsmen.

Under the influence of these intellectuals, Hongmen began to carry out various activities with the goal of anti-Qing.

However, many Hongmen disciples are also using their identities to engage in illegal activities. In the "pig piglet" trade in the late Qing Dynasty, Hongmen disciples personally abducted, sold, and transported Chinese laborers, and profited greatly from this criminal transaction.
In the southern provinces, Hongmen disciples monopolized the trade of wine and opium, and also opened many casinos and brothels.

People who join Hongmen come from three religions and nine streams, and their members come from mixed origins. These Hongmen disciples who engage in illegal business have caused Hongmen’s reputation for loyalty to plummet.

Therefore, what Mr. Fang said cannot be put on the stage, he should be talking about these people and things.

"But my grandpa has been dead for so long, and none of us have joined Hongmen. How could we establish a Hongmen hall without going through Hongmen?

Hongmen churches established in this way will not be recognized by Hongmen churches in other parts of the world!"

The identity of Hongmen is not passed down from generation to generation. It does not mean that if the master is a member of Hongmen, they will be members of Hongmen.

Therefore, Fang Lang felt that what grandpa thought was a little too simple.

Fang Xinshui also understood this, so he shook his head and said:

"Dad! Things are not that simple if we want to set up a Hongmen hall.

First of all, we ourselves must be members of Hongmen.

If you have never opened an incense hall and your name is not listed in the register, who will recognize your identity?"

After the old man heard what the two said, he didn't say anything more. Instead, he got up and went to the shrine, pulled out a drawer and opened it.

Fang Lang didn't understand what the old man was doing, so he quickly went over to help him.

But I saw the old man pull out an object wrapped in red silk from the drawer and hand it over casually.

Fang Lang quickly took it.

Just listen to the old man say:

"At the beginning, your great-grandfather said that he brought this out, and it was called Hongyi Hall's token.

Take a look, does it work?"

Fang Lang and Fang Xinshui looked at each other. Unexpectedly, there was another thing like this in the shrine at home. Why hadn't they noticed it before?

Fang Lang handed it to Fang Xinshui and told him to open it, while he stepped forward to hold up his grandfather's hand and let him sit down on the recliner.

After Fang Xinshui took it solemnly, he motioned to his nephew Fang Tao, who had been watching the fun, to clean up everything on the table.

Then, put the package on top and open it, and gently untie the outermost red cloth bag.

A piece of faded yellow silk leaked out.

After opening it, everyone gathered around.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a yellow pennant with the three characters "Hong Yi Tang" embroidered in red thread. There were also red trims on the bottom and bevel edges of the flag.

Fang Lang understood that this should be the name of the hall where the master was.

Inside the flag was another piece of red silk with writing on it. As Fang Xinshui slowly opened it, before Fang Lang could see the content of the writing on the red silk, he saw that it was wrapped in red silk. It turned out to be

A booklet.

The cover of the album is very beautifully made, with a thickness of more than three millimeters. It looks like it is wrapped in yellow silk cloth, but it is too long.

The yellow cover has turned a little white, and there is a large black stain in the upper left corner.

Fang Lang took a closer look and found that the stain should be the color of the blood that has infiltrated and oxidized over time.

On the right side from top to bottom, several traditional Chinese characters are written very clearly "Roster of Hongyi Hall".

After Fang Xinshui saw the brochure, his eyes widened and he looked at Fang Lang in disbelief.

Fang Lang's eyes also happened to meet Fang Xinshui's, and their eyes slowly changed from shock to surprise.

This roster is of great significance.

With this roster and the flag of Hongyitang, Fang Xinshui can directly act in the name of Hongyitang.

You can even directly invite Hongmen around the world to witness that Hongmen and Hongyi Hall are reborn in Brazil.

The history of this hall is obviously earlier than Hongmen Zhigong Hall.

In this way, even if the chief helm of Hongmen is now Zhi Gong Tang, the subordinate relationship between the two halls will become less obvious.

It is obviously very beneficial to the Fang family.

As Fang Xinshui picked up the roster and looked at it, Fang Lang noticed the red silk wrapping the roster, which looked not simple.

I saw the four characters "Be honest and eliminate adultery" written in black pen in the middle of this somewhat whitish red silk.

Above the large characters is a slightly smaller font that reads "Red Peony Contains Core", and below it is "White Peony Open".

On the right side it says "Two Dragons Fight for the Pearl" and on the left side it says "Two Phoenixes Chaoyang".

The fonts are not pretty, and the level of calligraphy cannot be seen at all. The person who wrote these words should not have a very high level of education.

Even the word "二" in "Two Dragons Struggle for the Pearl" looks more like a typo.

However, when Fang Lang saw this red silk, he felt that this thing should not be simple.

As for its specific function, you may have to ask people in Hongmen to know.

Fang Xinshui looked at the roster and said:

"Lang'er, do you think these things are useful?"

Fang Lang looked at Fang Xinshuidao, who was obviously smiling:

“Whether it’s useful or not, you’ll know just by asking, right?

Didn’t Mr. Situ invite you to join Hongmen?

Then just put these things out and see what he says."

After hearing Fang Lang's words, Fang Xinshui closed the roster directly, looked at Fang Lang and said:

"You mean, you agree with me to join Hongmen and open a Hongmen hall in Brazil?"

"No, it's not about joining Hongmen, it's about reorganizing Hongyi Hall.

Invite Mr. Situ to Brazil to host the ceremony, so that Hongyi Hall can return to the embrace of Hongmen in the world."

Fang Lang said with a smile on his face.

With this coat, in Brazil, the Fang family can completely control this Hongmen power and use it for their own use.

You can even use this flag to directly gather the Hongmen disciples who came from your hometown.

The rapid development and expansion prevented the Hongmen rudder from penetrating into Brazil.

"Yes, reorganize Hongyitang. From today on, our gang will be called Hongyitang. Haha..."

After Fang Xinshui finished speaking, he laughed proudly.

But before he could finish laughing, he received a cane from the old man.

"If you get carried away, you haven't even started to do anything yet. How do you know that others won't cause you any obstacles?

I’m a lot older, and I haven’t learned to be steady yet.”

Fang Xinshui was so frightened that he quickly stopped talking, and everyone laughed.

Seeing the opportunity, Yang Xiuer quickly interjected:

"Lang'er! How long can you stay when you come back this time? You're a big boss now, and you can be considered promising now.

I'm thinking about arranging a blind date for you too!"

Fang Lang never expected that his mother would be waiting for him here. When he heard that Qi Qingshan had been arranged for a blind date, he was worried whether he would also be arranged.

I didn’t expect this to happen.

Waving his hands repeatedly:

"Mom, no, no, I already have a girlfriend and am studying medicine in the United States.

When she goes on summer vacation, I will bring it back to you to see."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the family was filled with surprise and asked about Fang Lang's situation.

Fang Lang didn’t even know whose question to answer.

It was the old man's crutch that hit the ground hard that made everyone temporarily quiet.

The old man coughed twice and said:

"My dear grandson! Tell me whose daughter your grandpa is!

There seems to be no girl in the village who went to the United States to study medicine?"

Hearing his grandfather talk about the girls in the village, Fang Lang felt a little confused. Can he only find a wife in the village?

"Grandpa, my girlfriend is not Brazilian, but Italian. We met in Italy.

Her father is my partner in the Italian business."

"What? Italian? No, you are the eldest grandson of the eldest son, how can you marry a white woman and go home!

Won’t our Fang family’s incense change? No, I don’t agree.”

After hearing Fang Lang's words, Mr. Fang immediately stood up from the recliner.

The mother beside me also quickly said:

"Yes! Lang'er, if you marry a white woman, it will be difficult for me to communicate with her. How can this be done?"

My uncle and uncle, on the other hand, have indifferent expressions on their faces.

On the other hand, my aunt stood by with a somewhat embarrassed expression. After all, she was what grandpa called Mrs. Bai, a white Portuguese woman.

Maybe he noticed his aunt's embarrassment.

Fang Lang's mother's face also looked a little unnatural.

"Mom, don't worry! Your daughter-in-law is learning Chinese now, and she will have no problem communicating with you by then.

Grandpa, don’t be so old-fashioned. What age are we in these days? There are already very few Chinese women in Brazil.

If I still find a girlfriend in the village, I will get married as a consanguineous person."

Unexpectedly, the old man would not give up and said:

"What kind of marriage is between close relatives? Grandpa's cousins ​​can get married, but why can't the Chinese girls in the village do it?

I don’t care, you are the eldest grandson of the eldest son, so you must marry a Chinese. When the time comes, my grandson must also be a Chinese with yellow skin."
