Chapter 1135: The "Insatiable" Bug
In fact, many people understand this truth, once everyone in this huge country no longer fights internally, but unites to the outside world, then no matter how powerful Westerners are, they will be terrified.
Perhaps because of this, the West's method of dealing with China has always been to divide, brainwash and buy, and this kind of thing has not been interrupted since the late Qing Dynasty.
To be honest, if Zhang Tianyuan is the only one who insists on making the other party apologize today, I am afraid that the other party will never bow his head, Zhang Tianyuan wants to leave, and it is estimated that Stein will let him go, and he will not care at all.
No matter how strong a person is, after all, his strength is still limited.
It is really not easy for Zhang Tianyuan to unite these people together today, if it were not for the series of wonderful performances he had before, I am afraid it would be absolutely impossible.
Now because of the temporary establishment of this organization, everyone has benefited, not only the other party's money is returned happily, but also we are comfortable, this kind of thing that has not only benefited but also got spiritual enjoyment, it is really happy.
The people who originally admired Zhang Tianyuan were even more impressed at this time. And the people who were still a little disdainful at this time also became admired, this is a good phenomenon, if this matter can be solved satisfactorily today, I believe that the establishment of the collector's alliance in the future can also be easily solved.
"Okay, since we have already apologized, Mr. Zhang, let's end the matter!" Zhang Lingyu finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the matter had been resolved, her heart had been hanging for half a day, for fear that Zhang Tianyuan would mess things up, after all, Zhang Tianyuan was still young. There's always something impulsive.
"Yes, yes, your country is a country of etiquette. has always been generous to others, Boss Zhang. Isn't that the end of today's business?" said Stein, laughing.
"No way! I and the Collectors Alliance accept your apology, and the removal of Helis is an internal matter of your Brotherhood, and it doesn't do us any good, let alone mine. The state of etiquette is not weak, still less is it confused! The so-called etiquette is to be courteous and reciprocal! Sir Stein, you'd better understand that our country is not a Qing country. And I'm not Li Hongzhang! I won't be vain, let alone just save face! You know what I mean, right? Just apologizing will definitely not work, and I will come up with something practical. ”
As soon as Zhang Tianyuan's words came out, his glasses were suddenly shattered, and Zhang Lingyu was even more stunned.
Nowadays, many people have a habit of getting off the donkey, feeling that others have apologized, and they have gone down the stairs, without considering whether the apology has any practical significance.
Our embassy in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia was bombed. How can it be tolerated that the United States just casually says a few sorry words and then has nothing?
We can only keep protesting, and that's because our national strength is still weak. It's because we're still focusing on economic development, and we can't stand up to the enemy.
But today's situation is different, Zhang Tianyuan occupies an absolute advantage. Even if you are just with the other party, you are not afraid at all, if you don't take this opportunity to get more benefits. Is he stupid?
But the rest of the people present didn't expect him to do this, and even Wang Zhengjun was a little surprised.
"Teacher Xiao Zhang. It's not good, the other party has already apologized, and we have to be a little open-minded......"
A person like Zhang Lingyu is not bad, it can be said that he is a good person, but his heart is too soft, and he has experienced a lot of things, and he always has a feeling of inferiority in front of Westerners, as if he has been a slave to others, but one day, the slave owner apologized for beating her, and she was moved to tears.
She can accept it, but how can Zhang Tianyuan accept it!
"Ms. Zhang, we are not slaves of Westerners, we are not someone else's words, we have to be grateful, apologize and return the money, it should be, and the next thing to talk about is the issue of compensation, do you think I am not right?
Zhang Lingyu opened her mouth, although Zhang Tianyuan's words were not good, but she understood that Zhang Tianyuan was not wrong, this is the case, she felt that the noble Westerners had already apologized, so don't make any more trouble, which invisibly dwarfed her personality.
So he didn't say anything more, and if she said anything more, she herself felt ashamed.
And at this point, everyone should understand what Zhang Tianyuan meant, what he wants is compensation, which is a real benefit.
It's like breaking the law, it's useless for you to just apologize, you have to compensate for it, otherwise, you'll see you in court.
If an apology can solve the problem, then what else do you need the police to do?
"Hahaha, this kid, that's amazing......"
"I'm ashamed, I was complacent just now, and I felt that the other party's apology was already a great gift, but now that I think about it, it's really a bit embarrassing......"
"Teacher Zhang said it well, these people are not our people, and they are not a grade higher than us, why should we keep our voices down......"
"I have made a friend of Mr. Zhang, anyway, I feel that if I follow such a person, I will not suffer, no matter what I do in the future, I will have more face!"
In fact, if you think about it carefully, Zhang Tianyuan's request is not too much at all.
No one is anyone's slave, who is not a head lower than whom, what should be requested, then what is requested, if you blindly tolerate it, then it will definitely be you who suffer.
There have been a lot of school bullying incidents recently, and in the end, all the victim's family gets is an apology, an insincere apology.
It is precisely because of this that it has attracted a voice of condemnation on the Internet, and most people understand that just apologizing is definitely not enough, what to do, what to do, if there is no provision in the law to punish these people, then change the law!
Zhang Tianyuan didn't start out of nowhere, he did this because he had always been such a character, even when he had no money and no six-character true formula, he did it like this. For him, this is a normal thing.
He has always believed that the state of etiquette means to be courteous, not weak.
It's a pity that for thousands of years, many dynasties have misinterpreted the meaning of the entire state of etiquette, thinking that etiquette is to slap a swollen face and pretend to be fat.
The Tang Dynasty was one of the most prosperous dynasties in China, but at that time, the Tang Dynasty still did some stupid things because of this so-called etiquette.
Others beat you and robbed your border village, but later you were scared of being beaten, so you apologized, and you no longer continued to fight, but gave the princess to others as a wife, and gave others an official surname, which is speechless, I don't know who won and who lost.
In the Qing Dynasty, this situation was intensified, obviously winning the war against France, but instead giving others land and compensation, this kind of strange thing happened.
Speaking of World War II, China was obviously the victorious country, but because a certain bald head wanted to get along with the United States, it gave up Diaoyu Island to Japan, and even more so in order to make friends with Japan and jointly fight against the mainland, it was exempted from a lot of reparations.
But later, the island became a little devil, and the little devil didn't recognize that history at all, and even tampered with the history books to beautify and modify the war.
Of course, these things, in addition to being influenced by the distortion of etiquette, have their own debilitating causes.
Otherwise, what's wrong with being unforgiving?
Does it make sense to back down?
It makes sense, that is, you should stick to it,
What the hell is it to forgive and forgive?
There are so many bloody facts in reality, if you spare others, others will not only not repay, but will retaliate against you in turn!
Sometimes what is said in the book may not be right, which is also the experience that Zhang Tianyuan has summed up over the years.
Since it makes sense, then I have to be justified and have to claim compensation! You can't be justified and still cower, so that others will think that there is something in your heart.
Zhang Tianyuan has always believed in a truth, since you want to do it, you must do things thoroughly, if you don't do it, forget it, don't do half of the things and give in, that can only leave endless troubles for yourself.
There are often such plots in martial arts TV series, where someone keeps saying that he wants to kill people and kill them all, but when it comes to the end, he lets go of a person because of his soft-heartedness, and finally dies in the hands of the person he let go.
Zhang Tianyuan will not do that, if he wants to do it today, he must do things thoroughly, so that the Brotherhood, and even the entire Western society, at least dare not treat Chinese people as fools and do such shameless things in antique auctions.
"Whew!"
Stein was so angry with Zhang Tianyuan that his lungs were about to explode, but he knew that he couldn't make the mistake just now, so he exhaled deeply, held back the anger in his heart and asked, "Then what should I do according to Boss Zhang's wishes?"
Of course he was angry, as a noble Westerner, he had already apologized to a bunch of Chinese Yankees in a low voice, but when it came to the end, the other party was not enough, and he still wanted compensation, it was ridiculous, the apologies were all gifts to you, and you still wanted compensation, you lowly yellow people!
In fact, whether it is Hellis, Stein, or Birch, they are all the same people, they always feel that they are superior, and they are always looking down at others.
In their eyes, Zhang Tianyuan and others are a group of bugs, and apologizing to bugs is a very ridiculous and humiliating thing in itself, but this bug is not satisfied, and wants compensation, hell, when did the Chinese become so bold?
He wanted to scold, but after thinking about it, he gave up again, they were not afraid of the Chinese government, but they had to be afraid of their own food and clothing.
If they don't have Chinese antiques, they can't pay it back, but the key is that they are in the Chinese antique business, and if they offend these people here, then the business will not be able to do it at all.
So he asked Zhang Tianyuan to say the conditions, and see what else Zhang Tianyuan, the daring worm, wanted. Although he was about to explode deep inside, he was still a little better tempered than Helis after all, and he didn't explode. (To be continued......)
