It was Shu Qin and her uncle, standing at the door talking to a middle-aged man about 40 years old.
Could it be that Shu Qin was also from the Overseas Chinese Association, or she was just passing by.
The purpose of Zhou Zhihan's visit this time was just to know the location of the Overseas Chinese Association, and he didn't want to stay here too long.
He turned around and rode away. Just a few meters away, he heard someone calling him from behind: "Zhou Zhihan!"
It's Shu Qin.
Zhou Zhihan turned around and saw Shu Qin walking towards him.
Shu Qin's uncle also saw Zhou Zhihan and waved to him.
Zhou Zhihan stopped the bicycle, put one leg on the pedal, and put the other leg on the ground. Shu Qin's uncle waved hello.
"Zhou Zhihan, why are you here too?" Shu Qin saw Zhou Zhihan holding Xiao Long Bao in his hand and smiled, "So you came here specifically to have breakfast."
Shu Qin has short hair and a nice smile.
"Oh, hey, today is Sunday. I have long heard that the steamed buns and soy milk fried dough sticks here are delicious. I have been in the United States for such a long time, and I haven't eaten soy milk fried dough sticks and steamed buns for a long time. I biked here specifically to eat them this morning."
Zhou Zhihan lied without blinking: "Hey, have you had breakfast? I still have two cages of steamed buns, some vegetarian and some meaty, and they are still hot. The owner of the steamed bun shop was so kind and gave me some pickles. Salt beans.”
"When overseas Chinese see Chinese people, they feel closer than seeing their relatives." Shu Qin smiled and put the watch on his wrist in front of Zhou Zhihan's eyes, "I have had breakfast long ago, what time is it?
"You'd better take your xiaolongbao home for your girlfriend to eat!" Shu Qin put his hands in front of him naturally, tilted his body and tilted his head to look at Zhou Zhihan's left and back, and then saw his right and back, "Hey! Today is Sunday, didn’t you bring her with you?”
Zhou Zhihan hesitated.
"She is so beautiful, and she is so kind to you." Shu Qin's eyes are beautiful, clear, and without any dust.
"Alas~" Zhou Zhihan changed the subject, "Why are you and your uncle here?"
Shu Qin smiled with white teeth: "My uncle is a member of the Chinese Association. I came here with him this morning to have something to do."
"Oh! Then go and get busy. I'm going back to school first." Zhou Zhihan didn't want to stay here for a long time. He believed that the fewer people who knew him here, the better. When there was a chance to secretly send gold here, he would try not to do it in the future. Coming here.
Zhou Zhihan said, releasing the handbrake and pedaling with his right foot to leave.
"Didn't you say nothing is wrong today?" Shu Qin said, "Come in with us and take a look. Many Chinese and overseas Chinese in New York came here today to talk about the current situation in the country and everyone's current situation in the United States. There are many patriotic international students like you who come here from various schools to contribute to the Overseas Chinese Association and strengthen the strength of our Chinese people."
Seeing Zhou Zhihan's hesitation, Shu Qin smiled and said, "Oh! Don't you have time? Do you want to give the buns to your girlfriend?"
Zhou Zhihan wondered why this girl always refused to open a certain pot. He avoided the truth and said, "I have been in the United States for a few months and I have never been to the Overseas Chinese Association. I just want to go in with you."
Shu Qin was overjoyed: "This place is usually very lively, especially during our traditional Chinese festivals. They also dance lions, row dragon boats, sing flower drums, sing operas, and sometimes write poems and poems, which is really fun."
Zhou Zhihan's interest has come up. Writing poetry is not good for him. He can't even recite three of the 300 Tang poems. However, he is very interested in lion dancing, dragon boat racing and flower drum singing. Before time travel, he had only seen it on Douyin.
Zhou Zhihan parked his bicycle and saw several international students wearing school uniforms walking into the Overseas Chinese Association.
The two-story building outside is just the facade of the Overseas Chinese Association. After entering, there is a large courtyard at the back that can accommodate a hundred or ten people. However, Zhou Zhihan felt that the atmosphere today was wrong, and many people had solemn expressions.
Shu Qin's uncle saw his niece coming in with Zhou Zhihan and nodded to him. He and several middle-aged men were discussing something. One of them was the middle-aged man who was standing at the door talking to him just now. He was of medium height. Fat, dark-skinned, wearing a jacket, looking like a businessman.
Shu Qin and Zhou Zhihan found a place with few people to stand.
At this time, several middle-aged men and women walked out of the room at the back of the yard, waving and nodding to everyone, looking very serious.
Among them, the older man, wearing a Chinese-style robe, glasses and a hat, walked up to the rostrum and said: "Dear Chinese and overseas Chinese, fellow compatriots, today, I am here to announce something heartbreaking for you.
Just last night, another patriotic Chinese died tragically. The murderer has still not been found. This is the second patriotic Chinese to die in the past two months. "
There was silence in the courtyard for a while, and then many people talked in low voices.
Shu Qin whispered: "This is Mr. Liu Yunyi, the vice president of the New York Overseas Chinese Association. He took the lead in raising funds for the first two years and bought a lot of weapons and supplies for the country."
Zhou Zhihan nodded.
Such overseas Chinese deserve respect!
Liu Yunyi stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet: "This is not an accident, but someone has premeditated it and targeted my Chinese compatriots.
In the past two months, our New York Overseas Chinese Association has raised more than 40,000 US dollars to support our domestic air force in purchasing a batch of advanced fighter jets from the United States. Someone must not want our air force to get this batch of fighter jets, so they used them from To obstruct and assassinate my patriotic Chinese and overseas Chinese.
But they don't scare us.
So today I want to tell you that while we must be united, we must also be aware of risk prevention. We have urged the US police to catch the murderer as soon as possible. "
Buying a fighter jet? Zhou Zhihan looked at Shu Qin beside him.
Shu Qin shook his head with a solemn expression: "I just found out about this."
Zhou Zhihan said: "I mean, if the vice president says this, who will dare to donate to the Overseas Chinese Association in the future? Also, what kind of fighter jets will be purchased?"
Shu Qin shook his head again: "You don't understand, you don't understand how patriotic the overseas Chinese are.
Most of them will not be afraid of intimidation and will continue to support the motherland.
Since the General Association of Chinese Associations in the United States issued a proposal last year to support the purchase of advanced fighter jets by the National Government Air Force, four patriotic Chinese who donated have died unexpectedly. Although everyone knows that the forces behind the scenes are Japanese devils, we will never pay tribute to them. They bowed their heads.
From the end of 1934, our domestic air force had the intention to purchase a batch of advanced American fighter jets. However, due to the domestic war of resistance, the shortage of funds, the corruption of the National Government, and some people who wanted to enrich the country, the money to purchase the fighter jets was never raised.
In addition, the Japanese were obstructing it openly and covertly. In order to prevent these fighter jets from being sold to the Chinese Air Force, they engaged in various conspiracies and conspiracies, killing many patriotic Chinese and overseas Chinese. "
Zhou Zhihan said: "Can you also know this kind of military secret?"
Shu Qin said: "This is no longer a military secret. What happened two years ago is no longer a secret now. The money to purchase weapons has not been paid. The American arms dealers issued an ultimatum to the National Government in the first half of last year. , if the National Government cannot come up with the money to purchase the aircraft before July this year, the contract will expire and the company will sell these aircraft elsewhere.
Therefore, starting from the first half of last year, the Overseas Chinese Association in the United States called on everyone to contribute to the domestic anti-Japanese military and civilians and assist the Nationalist Government in purchasing these aircraft. "
Zhou Zhihan asked: "What type of aircraft are these?"
Shu Qin said: "I heard from my uncle that there are 11 aircraft in this batch, and they are P26 fighter jets."
