After nearly a day, Zhou Tian and Zhou Hao introduced to Zhao Zhenzhong the development of their people in the United States over the past four years. After learning about the achievements they achieved, Zhao Zhenzhong was very excited, which was much better than what he had expected. In his happiness, Zhao Zhenzhong made an exception during dinner and drank some wine with Zhou Tian and Zhou Hao.

According to the original arrangement, Zhou Hao should lead Zhao Zhenzhong to the city center of New York the next day to appreciate the style of New York in this era. Unexpectedly, it started to rain heavily the next day, and Zhao Zhenzhong and Zhou Hao had to cancel the itinerary and continue to stay in the manor.

While there was nothing to do, Zhao Zhenzhong learned about the local situation from Zhou Tian and Zhou Hao.

"After coming to the United States this time, I have heard you mention Chinese communities many times, and they also said that they have a good relationship with overseas Chinese leaders. Now it is windy and rainy outside. How about it when I take this time?"

After hearing this, Zhou Tian looked at Zhao Zhenzhong and pursed her lips and said, "The old man goes to Boston for about a month every summer to handle some affairs there and see a few old brothers. He only went to Boston at the end of last month and was expected to return to New York at the end of this month. I originally thought that when we go to Boston together in two days, we would talk to you and take you to see him. Since you want to know now, I will tell you this surprise in advance, so that you can save you from still thinking about it."

After Zhou Tian and others arrived in the United States in 25 years, all of the 39 overseas students, except Zhou Tian, ​​worked hard in school. Zhou Tian was called a medical expert in the past world, and he had no effort to master Western medicine in this era, so he had a lot of time to travel between Boston and New York to learn more about the stock market and the restrictions on Chinese by the US authorities. Of course, he also treated some diseases for overseas students.

Although Zhou Tian and 39 other overseas students lived in school dormitories or rented houses outside the school, and had relatively few opportunities to contact the outside world, everyone still had contact with local Chinese. Since everyone is from China and is a descendant of Yan and Huang, there is always a sense of intimacy when they meet in a foreign country. Zhou Tian and others are international students, and there is no conflict of interests between each other, and everyone gets along well.

Under such circumstances, Zhou Tian, ​​a newly-launched girl with good medical skills, was gradually known to local Chinese, and people began to seek medical treatment. Although Western medicine lacked effective drugs at that time and there were no Chinese herbal medicines available in the United States, Zhou Tian still used acupuncture and other methods to relieve the pain of Chinese patients. In the autumn and winter of 1925, with the assistance of Li Yunlan, Zhou Tian cured many Chinese infected with cold in Boston and New York, and even performed a caesarean section on a Chinese woman with difficult labor in Boston to keep her mother and son safe. This also made the name "goddess doctor" begin to spread among local Chinese. Zhou Tian's kindness also allowed her to receive help from many Chinese people in the process of speculation in stock market and opening a company.

However, the reason why Zhou Tian and others really formed a close relationship with the Chinese communities in Boston and New York and were able to meet several celebrities was the battle between Anliangtang and Xieshengtang that occurred in Boston in 1926.

It is difficult to verify the specific year that the halls of Chinese communities in the United States rose. However, it is certain that this is closely related to Chinese workers in the United States in the 1860s. In the early days, the hall was just a loose organization similar to the alumni association formed by Chinese workers, gathering everyone's strength to take care of and protect members who were harassed due to racial discrimination in the United States. Of course, the hall also formed an alliance with street gangs and also helped new immigrants in some aspects, such as borrowing money, helping start a business, etc. However, these halls began to change later. In 1876, the Hongmen Zhigong Hall was officially registered and established in Honolulu, and then the Zhigong Hall appeared in the Americas. The three creeds of "unity with loyalty, loyalty to save the country, and chivalrously eliminate traitors." It shows that it is an organization that unites the organization of overseas Chinese, safeguards its own interests and fights against the Qing Dynasty and saves the country.

After the establishment of the Hongmen Zhigong Hall, although it developed rapidly in the American Chinese community, the organization was still loose. Not only can the churches in various places do their own jobs, but there are also strong people who set up a new mountain under the banner of the Hongmen Zhigong Hall. The most typical of these is Situ Meitang, a Chinese leader in Boston and New York.

Situ Meitang was born in 1868 in a poor peasant family in Chikan Town, Kaiping City, Guangdong Province. At the age of 12, he was forced to go across the ocean to the United States to make a living with his fellow villagers and work as a handyman in a restaurant in Chinatown. At that time, in order to protect his own interests, many overseas Chinese joined the Hongmen Zhigongtang and other hall organizations. At this time, Hongmen Zhigongtang was one of the largest private association organizations of the lower-class people of North America at that time. In 1885, 17-year-old Situ Meitang made a vow to join the Hongmen Zhigongtang in San Francisco (San Francisco). The next year, Situ Meitang was injured and was in a hard labor prison for ten months due to injury. After being released from prison, he took care of a child for an overseas Chinese family.

There are rivers and lakes where there are people. A place like the Hongmen Zhigongtang, where people and people are mixed with each other, naturally, it is inevitable that there will be conflicts among different small groups. Although it is not clear why, Situ Meitang, who was young and energetic at that time, left San Francisco and worked as a chef at the US warship "Paulomo" in 1894, and followed the warship to some countries in South America and Western Europe.

In the winter of that year, Situ Meitang and his own group of brothers set up a system called "Anliangtang" in Zhigongtang. In 1894, Situ Meitang came to Boston and established Anliangtang, which was the banner of "repelling the strong and supporting the weak, eliminating violence and maintaining the good". Anliangtang soon became a strong group under the Hongmen Zhigongtang, and finally developed into 31 cities across the United States with an extremely large scale and a member of more than 20,000. In 1905, Situ Meitang established the "Anliang Hall" in New York and served as the Prime Minister. Situ Meitang himself was called the "big boss" and members respectfully called him "uncle".

When Situ Meitang established a new mountain in the eastern United States and founded Anliangtang, Xieshengtang in San Francisco, western United States also began to develop to the east and entered New York and Boston and other places.

Anliangtang and Xieshengtang can be said to be two representative halls in the American Chinese community. Although both belong to the Hongmen Zhigongtang, there are many conflicts with each other. Since Situ Meitang was excluded in the Hongmen Zhigongtang in the western United States in history, and in reality, the two halls compete for some territory and industry interests, there will inevitably be some frictions and conflicts between Anliangtang and Xieshengtang.

With friction and conflict, naturally, fists are inevitable to fight to resolve disputes. Of course, some people are injured in the fight, and the injured people have to seek treatment. Due to Zhou Tian's extraordinary medical skills in the autumn and winter of 25, by the spring of 26, she was praised by local Chinese in Boston as a "goddess doctor". People who were injured in the fight in the Boston area often went to Zhou Tian for treatment. Although Zhou Tian and others persuaded both sides that "all Chinese should not kill each other", no one listened to the words of a little girl. In desperation, Zhou Tian established a rule that the two sides would not be allowed to fight within two kilometers of her Boston residence, otherwise they would never take any treatment.

At the beginning, the people in Anliangtang and Xieshengtang did not take Zhou Tian's words seriously, and even those who came to Xieshengtang in Boston wanted to use the strong ones at one time. Unexpectedly, Zhou Hao, Li Yunshan, Liu Chenghai, Liu Chenghai, Tang Ming and others fists and beat him to obey. After that incident, the two halls found that these young students not only had good skills, but also had a decisive move, but also had a very united relationship with Americans, so it was really hard to provoke. In addition, neither party wanted to offend the goddess doctor himself and let the other party make profits. The rule set by Zhou Tian was followed by the two halls in awkward manner.

What happened in Boston was naturally soon known to Situ Meitang of Anliang Hall in New York. After learning in detail about the behavior of Zhou Tian and others since they arrived in the United States, Situ Meitang also became interested in these teenagers. While he ordered the people of Anliang Hall in Boston not to conflict with these teenagers studying abroad, he also restricted his subordinates to try to avoid unnecessary conflicts with Xiesheng Hall. When Situ Meitang arrived in Boston in the summer of 2016, he specially made an appointment with Zhou Tian and others to thank them for helping Anliang Hall.

During this appointment, Situ Meitang discovered that Zhou Tian, ​​Zhou Hao and the teenagers were both extraordinary in their conversation and behavior, especially some of the views of the siblings were of great help to An Liangtang's development, so they began to think of helping the younger generation. After learning that Zhou Tian's acupuncture was indeed unique, Situ Meitang remembered that Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the legal counsel who was very helpful to An Liangtang, and now the patient-habited patient. Later, Situ Meitang wrote a letter to Roosevelt, who was eager to recover his health, and recommended that he try Chinese acupuncture therapy. In this way, Zhou Tian and

Through the introduction of Situ Meitang, Li Yunlan and the others became Roosevelt's personal health consultant in the spring of 1927, and continued until Roosevelt became the governor of New York. Although nearly 6 years had passed since Roosevelt fell ill and missed the best time to recover, and his legs lost the possibility of full recovery, with the efforts of Zhou Tian and Li Yunlan and the cooperation of Roosevelt in the treatment, by 1928, Roosevelt's condition had improved. He could leave the wheelchair and walk slowly with crutches. This made Roosevelt very grateful to the two.

That is, from the appointment in the summer of 26, Zhou Tian and others began to get close to Anliangtang of Situ Meitang. At the suggestion of Zhou Tian and Zhou Hao, Situ Meitang began to adjust the development direction of Anliangtang's industry and formed Huamei Investment Company with Zhou Tian and others. Later, according to Zhou Tian's suggestion, they opened up the joints of the local chiefs of East Samoa and arranged many Chinese to become residents of East Samoa, and finally obtained American nationality as East Samoa became a U.S. territory in 29 years.
