The group of strong men surrounding Shopkeeper Lu originally thought that danger was imminent. Each of them cheered up and showed a feeling of looking forward to death. Each of them knew in their hearts that this battle to protect Shopkeeper Lu would be very important to them. How important is it for these people who have become disabled.
They had already offended Boss Lu and were sure to be kicked out, but this unexpected appearance changed their fate again.
As long as they seize this opportunity and try their best to protect Shopkeeper Lu, even if they lose their lives in the end, as long as they can protect Shopkeeper Lu's safety, their family will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
Precisely because they knew this, they were all ready to sacrifice their lives when preparing for this battle. At the same time, they also hoped that the young guys would lose their minds and rush over, because only in this way would they have the opportunity to make meritorious deeds and serve the people. Leave a way for your family to survive.
Looking forward to the stars, looking forward to the moon, looking forward to the end, what they waited for was disappointment, because under Zhou Ming's intervention, the gang of boys, who didn't know what nonsense they heard in the end, actually gave up the idea of causing trouble.
Seeing this scene, the strong men all became discouraged, because they understood that if they missed this opportunity, they might only die in the future.
Among the big men, a few small-minded people even started to cry. While they were crying, they cursed the young man opposite:
"Why are these bastards so cowardly? They changed their minds before they even started. Isn't this just playing tricks on us?"
"When they listen to others' advice, we will be miserable. Where can we make a living in the future?"
Shopkeeper Lu was impatient by their quarrel, so he put on a straight face and said angrily: "Shut up, everyone. If I hear you complain again, I will have you thrown out right now."
When the strong men heard this, they were all so frightened that they became speechless.
Shopkeeper Lu pointed at the strong men standing in front of him: "Get out of the way and don't block my sight."
Upon hearing this, the few strong men standing in front of him limped away quickly. As they walked, they murmured in their hearts, this shopkeeper Lu is really not a human being. When there was danger just now, how could our brother... He risked his life and stood in front of him to protect him. He didn't dare to say a word of nonsense. Now that the danger was over, he felt that we were useless, so he immediately turned against us and drove us away.
Although this bank is large enough, with such a shopkeeper, it will definitely not get better in the future.
Although they had many complaints in their hearts, they still wanted to stay in the bank and earn a living, so they did not express their negative emotions.
After stabilizing his companion's emotions, Dashan finally had time to continue telling his story. However, when he looked back and saw Zhou Yiming's face, he was a little worried, fearing that after so long, Zhou Yiming would no longer be interested in listening to him. told.
In order to test Yi Ming's mind, he took a few steps forward, and then said with some shame: "Strong man, don't be offended. My brothers and I are all rough people, straight-tempered, and have not read since childhood. I have read a book, so when I encounter something, I tend to get emotional and go to extremes.
The reason why they showed such excitement and said some things that they shouldn't say just now is actually not because they have any ill intentions towards you and Shopkeeper Lu. It's all a misunderstanding. "
Zhou Yiming nodded, muttering secretly in his heart, this Dashan really thinks too much. Even if you don't explain it this way, I won't do anything to your brothers. After all, this is Boss Lu's family matter, and I am It's not convenient to intervene.
"Brother Dashan, what you say is an outsider. We are all children of the world, and we are all gentlemen, so I won't take these minor issues to heart at all." Zhou Yiming said impassionedly, "As for what Shopkeeper Lu thinks, you There’s no need to worry, I’ve seen a lot of things in the world, how can I not be as knowledgeable as you guys?”
Dashan nodded, feeling that what Zhou Ming said made sense.
The boys on the side, after listening to Zhou Ming's words, they realized how excessive their actions just now were. If shopkeeper Lu held them responsible afterwards, they would definitely not be able to live with it.
Shopkeeper Lu was sitting some distance away from Zhou Ming and the others, but he could still hear the conversation between them just now.
Although Shopkeeper Lu is usually kind-hearted, but because of his outstanding ability, he acts in an arbitrary style. He usually hates others making decisions for him without his consent, but after listening to what Zhou Ming said on his behalf just now, After that, instead of being angry, he felt that what Zhou Ming said was very appropriate. Maybe he himself handled the matter personally, but he was not as good as Zhou Ming.
The strong men on the side naturally understood Shopkeeper Lu's character. When they heard that Zhou Yiming had expressed his opinion on his behalf without Shopkeeper Lu's consent, they felt very angry for the first time, and then everyone's eyes lit up. They immediately felt that this was a great opportunity to sow discord between them, so they couldn't help but gathered around Shopkeeper Lu and slandered him.
"Shopkeeper Lu, that young boy is so bold that he makes the decision for you. In doing so, he simply doesn't take you seriously."
"I have long said that he is not a good person, but now he has shown his fox tail. Shopkeeper, as long as you say a word, I will go over and teach him a lesson for you now."
Shopkeeper Lu glanced at them with disgust, and then said angrily: "Are you done yet? Let me tell you, your heroic act of protecting me just now has won me some favor. I am considering whether to take it back. It's your decision, but if you keep nagging like this and making trouble in front of me, don't blame me for being cruel."
After hearing this reprimand, the strong men immediately lowered their heads in fear and did not dare to speak anymore. They were all thinking, is Shopkeeper Lu an old fool? What they just said was obviously to fight for his injustice. Why didn't he appreciate it at all, but instead scolded them so ruthlessly?
While everyone was confused, they were all scolding Shopkeeper Lu for being a nobody. But after thinking for a while, they suddenly felt that there seemed to be something profound in what Shopkeeper Lu just said.
Everyone looked at each other and then all smiled.
Because when Shopkeeper Lu was scolding them just now, he also revealed a message in his words, that is, he was very grateful to them for saving him just now, so he was considering whether to keep them in the bank to work.
After understanding this meaning, the strong men put aside all their anger towards Shopkeeper Lu. In turn, they all regarded Shopkeeper Lu as their great benefactor, because they all knew that the reason why Shopkeeper Lu said this must be It has been decided to keep them.
While they were happy, they thanked the young guys in their hearts, because if they hadn't caused trouble just now, they wouldn't have had the chance to impress Shopkeeper Lu.
After Dashan knew what Zhou Ming was thinking, he hesitated for a moment, and finally plucked up the courage and said to Zhou Ming: "Strong man, actually I haven't finished what I just said. I don't know if I still have the honor now. Continue to talk about it." Finished telling my experience.
Of course, if you don't have time, warrior, forget it. "
After hearing this request, Zhou Yiming's heart skipped a beat, thinking that Dashan was too unsighted. Shopkeeper Lu called them here, originally asking them to deal with Manager Li quickly, but just because of a few words, he... He kept talking endlessly in front of me. If he finished listening to his experience, it would probably be almost dark.
He subconsciously looked outside and found that the sun was getting higher and higher. He murmured to himself that before he came to the bank just now, he asked the coachman to wait for him for a while and he would go back immediately. However, he did not expect that the coachman would wait for most of the day after he arrived. By the time he gets back, he will definitely be anxious.
What worries him even more is that Deng Tong and Xia Dezhang should already be at the Yamen of the General Affairs Office at this time. If they see them but fail to see his shadow, Han Pingzhi will definitely get angry and take it out on them. He's a kid, but he's out of luck.
Although he had all kinds of concerns in his heart, after seeing the gang of boys behind Dashan, Yi Ming still had to agree to his request, because if he refused, once Dashan turned his back and united with the gang of brothers behind him to cause trouble, things could be terrible. It would be difficult to handle.
Shopkeeper Lu sat on a chair. After seeing Dashan make this request, Zhou Yiming was stunned for a moment. He knew in his heart that this young junior must be in trouble, otherwise he would have agreed to Dashan's request.
Seeing this situation, shopkeeper Lu couldn't help but become worried, fearing that Zhou Yiming would get hot-headed and refuse Dashan's request. In that case, things might change again.
Just when shopkeeper Lu was feeling uneasy, Zhou Yiming suddenly spoke.
"Brother, what you said is exaggerated. You and I have experienced so many things together today, and we can be regarded as good brothers sharing life and death. Not to mention that I have plenty of time to listen to you talk about your own experiences. Even if I don't have time, I will I will push away other things and take time to spend with you."
When they saw Zhou Yiming hesitate before answering the question, Dashan and the brothers behind him felt a little unhappy, feeling that he was not giving them face.
Just when their inner dissatisfaction was getting higher and higher, Zhou Ming suddenly said something very candidly, which made Dashan and his brothers feel warm in their hearts. Their dissatisfaction with Zhou Ming also disappeared instantly. Disappear.
Dashan grabbed Zhou Ming's arm excitedly, and was so moved that he was speechless for a moment. After he recovered, he said with red eyes: "Strong man, I know you are in trouble, how can you give me this in this situation?" My mountain will be grateful to you for the rest of my life."
