When safeguarding the common interest, people will become unusually united, because the attribute of man is selfish, and man is born with the attribute of selfishness, as for the original nature of man, this does not have much contradiction with selfishness, is it that selfish people are not good, is it that selfish people are great evil.

And what is true kindness, is it kindness to donate all of one's wealth to the poor, or is it kindness to work hard, but hard work is kindness?

Some people will feel that it is a kind person who gives all his money to the poor, and he is a great good person, while a person who does not pull out a dime is selfish, even if he works hard.

In fact, the situation is far from the case, donating all the money to the poor is cruel to oneself and one's family, and it will also promote the dependence of the poor, so that the poor can never get rid of the fate of poverty, is this the so-called kindness, this should be another kind of cruelty!

And a person who does not pull out a dime, there is no problem of promoting the dependence of the poor, and a dime does not mean that he is lazy to do, maybe he is still a serious and active person, such a person is a great contribution to the whole society, as long as he does not do things that violate the law and discipline, he is a good person, a kind person.

Therefore, a selfish person can also be kind, kindness and selfishness are not contradictory, a person can be both good and selfish.

In the world, most parents are good people, but they are also selfish people, and most of their hard-earned money is for their own children, not for other people's children.

In other words, most of the people in the world are selfish good people, and they can also be said to be selfish and kind people.

Many businessmen on the lookouts have never done bad things as adulterers, and they can all become good people, but businessmen are selfish people, and if you want to say that any businessman is not selfish, it is estimated that no one will believe it, and it is impossible for a person who is not selfish to become a successful businessman.

In particular, the skill of lying is necessary for a businessman, and if a businessman cannot lie, then he will not be able to do business.

A businessman is a person who buys and sells at a low price, which is necessary to make money, but in order to sell the product, he always needs to tell a little lie or something, such as lying that he has lost money, or that he has almost no profit, in fact, it is likely to be several times the huge profit.

Selfishness is a necessary quality to be a businessman, lying is also a necessary quality, and it must also be at the level of lying without blushing, otherwise, it is better to work honestly.

These businessmen, what they said just now stimulated the fat businessmen, they are very clear about this problem, in case something happens to the fat man who jumped into the Colosseum, once someone investigates it, they will be more or less implicated, and it is impossible to sentence them, but there is no pressure to pay financial compensation.

The most important thing for businessmen is profit, and moreover, they feel that they have not done anything wrong, usually fat businessmen do not talk less about them, now what does it matter if they scold the fat man a few words, as for the fat man jumping into the Colosseum, it is his own mental stimulation, and he can't blame them for talking.

The Tang civil and military officials who stood up unconsciously took a few steps forward, gathered outside the wooden fence, and looked at the Colosseum seriously, their spirits were quite excited, this scene exceeded their imagination, and made them feel very exciting and exciting.

The biggest advantage of the fat businessman is that his strength is relatively large, which is greater than that of ordinary businessmen, but he has not exercised for many years, and his physique is not very good.

This not only surprised the onlookers, but also surprised the two dogs and pirates in the Colosseum, especially the big yellow dog who was closest to him, took a few steps back in fright, and looked at his master vigilantly.

The fat merchant struggled to get up, touched the muddy water on his face, felt a little blindfolded, and was in great pain all over his body, as if he had been beaten.

When he jumped down just now, he was reckless with his enthusiasm, but when he really fell into the muddy water of the Colosseum, the fat merchant immediately regretted it.

He knew his strength very well, with his body and bones, it was impossible to defeat the pirates without weapons, and the two hunting dogs he raised, one was already dizzy, and the other seemed to have no fighting spirit, and it was completely difficult to take on the big task.

If these two dogs are really unreliable, then he will be miserable, and if the pirates rush at him, he will die.

Of course, he is a serious businessman, and the Tang soldiers who maintain order can help him, as long as the Tang soldiers are willing to shoot, no number of pirates are enough to shoot.

In addition, he can also shout for help, as long as he shouts for help and tells the onlookers that he accidentally fell, then the Datang soldiers will naturally form a team to save him.

But then the fat merchant's face will be disgraced, and when he jumps, he will look heroic, and if he shouts for help, then everything he has done before will be in vain, and when he is rescued, others will laugh at him even more.

Therefore, the fat businessman who was scared into a cold sweat was very conflicted in his heart at the moment, he wanted to save his life, and at the same time, he also wanted to save his face, both of which were indispensable.

And all he can rely on at the moment is the two hunting dogs he raises, if these two dogs are not strong, his life will be very worried.

Looking up at the audience above, the fat merchant gritted his teeth, strode in the direction of the big yellow dog, and shouted loudly: "Big rhubarb, go bite him, go quickly." ”

The big yellow dog could naturally hear the master's voice, but in the battle just now, his courage had been shattered, and in the face of the master's order, it was a little afraid to step forward, and its eyes were full of rejection.

"Rhubarb, what are you still doing, go bite him, bite him."

The fat merchant shouted again and let his dog bite the pirate.

The big yellow dog reluctantly swam forward for some distance, but soon stopped, because it could no longer feel the movement of the big black dog, and its courage was even more broken.

At this time, the big black dog was hit on the head many times by a wooden stick, and he was already dizzy and had no strength to fight at all, and his forehead was full of dog blood, and it was a question of whether he could survive.

However, the pirate will not pity a dog, his own life may be lost at any time, and it is very likely that he will be bitten to death by a dog, and they all say that they will pull a cushion when they die, and the pirate knows that his life will not last long, so he will be even more crazy when he does things.

He hit the big black dog's head frantically, as if he would not stop until the big black dog was killed, and at the same time, such madness would produce a terrible aura, so that the other dog did not dare to step forward.

After predicting that the big black dog was about to die, the pirate kicked the big black dog a long distance, and then turned around and looked at the fat merchant and the big yellow dog, with a rather hideous expression on their faces.

Seeing that the pirate was not far ahead, and holding a short wooden stick in both hands, with a fierce look, the fat merchant was frightened, and his legs were shaking, but because of the muddy water, he could not see very clearly.

And the onlookers, after seeing this scene, their hearts all rose to their throats, this is the Colosseum, a few dogs and a few damn pirates are nothing, but the fat merchant is a normal businessman, if he dies in the Colosseum like this, it will cause great social repercussions, and it will also reduce the prestige of the Tang Dynasty, after all, this event is organized by Li An, and other issues can be discussed, but a qualified businessman cannot die casually, this is a matter of principle, and it is not allowed to be negotiated.

Of course, there are also some onlookers, who are cheering, they think that the pirates are very majestic, and the fight is very good, so that they can watch very enjoyable, or some onlookers have been bitten by hunting dogs, and they hate hunting dogs in their hearts, and they feel very happy to see the bloodshed of the hunting dogs.

There are also some people, probably who have formed a bond with the fat merchant, and when they saw the fat merchant jump into the Colosseum and face a huge crisis, they felt very happy in their hearts, so they unconsciously cheered.

"Li Shilang, this fat man will be in danger, we must send someone to get him up, if he is killed by pirates, the prestige of my Tang Dynasty court will be greatly affected, it is not a matter to kill a few dogs, but it can't kill people!"

The official in charge of the Colosseum's affairs knew the seriousness of the problem, and hurriedly ran to Li An's side and spoke.

Li An naturally understands this truth, however, Li An is not worried that the fat merchant will be in danger, because the pirate only has two wooden sticks in his hand, and the attack power is nothing, and he has a bow and sharp arrows given by the Tang Emperor next to him.

Of course, it is necessary to wait until the situation develops to be serious enough, Li An will choose to save people, as long as the situation is still under control, Li An will not make a move, and he will not let his subordinate soldiers take action easily, he wants to see more of the excitement, to see how this fat businessman will deal with the crisis in the Colosseum.

"It's okay, this official is here, how can he allow pirates to kill? You don't have to worry, this fat man was very brave just now, and the official was just curious, whether he was really brave or a silver-like wax head gun. ”

Li An said very easily.

Since Li An said that he was not afraid, and the subordinate officials were not good at saying anything, if something happened, naturally Li An would take it, and he would not have much responsibility.

"Li Shilang, will the pirates kill this merchant?"

The white fox saw the pirate raise the double wooden stick, and said worriedly.

Li An said proudly: "With this official standing here, pirates can't kill the fat merchant." ”

"Why, the pirates are not far from the fat merchant, but Li Shilang is standing here, how can I ensure that the pirates can't kill the fat merchant."

White Fox asked.

Li An pointed to the bow and arrow next to him and said: "This is the sunset bow that His Majesty has given me today, if this dead fat man is in danger, this official will immediately shoot the pirate and save his life, you can rest assured." ”

"White Fox, our Ah Lang is the best archery in the entire Tang Dynasty, as long as you want to shoot the pirate's left eye, you will definitely not shoot the pirate's right eye, amazing!"

The corners of Yun'er's mouth curled slightly, and she looked at Li An with adoration.

Although it is a bit exaggerated, however, it is generally true, it is indeed the case, Li An's archery skills are indeed very powerful in the entire Tang Empire, and it is definitely not a boast to pierce Yang in a hundred steps.

"Oh, Li Shilang is so powerful!"

The white fox is also a face of worship.

The pirate didn't immediately attack the Fat Merchant, because the ring he was standing in was clean, while the Fat Merchant was soaked in muddy water, and he was thinking about whether to jump into the muddy water and attack the Merchant.

"Fatty, don't stand still! Take your dog and go kill the pirates. ”

"Fatty, don't be cowardly! Go to the ring and duke it out against the pirates. ”

Some of the onlookers made a coaxing sound, some of them had a holiday with the fat businessman, and some did not know the fat businessman at all.

The fat merchant was very afraid of the ferocious pirates, so he naturally didn't dare to run over to fight the pirates with his bare hands, and the people around him were completely forcing him to death, and he wasn't stupid? Don't be stupid and run to fight pirates.

However, he still has a card in his hand, the frightened yellow dog, which is his weapon, and he believes that if he is in danger, the big yellow dog will stand up to protect him.

At this moment, the pirate had not yet launched an attack, so he naturally did not dare to provoke again, let alone scold the big yellow dog to fight hard, so as not to completely anger the pirate.

In addition, he looked at Li An's location from time to time, probably hoping that the Datang soldiers would come over to rescue him, but he was desperate to find that no Datang soldiers came to rescue him, which made him quite helpless.

After a confrontation, the pirate suddenly picked up the extra sticks on the ground, hesitated for a moment, threw them away, and then jumped into the muddy water with the two sticks in his hand, and walked towards the fat merchant with great vigour.

He wanted to pick up the stick and throw it at the fat merchant, but then he thought that if the stick hadn't hit the fat merchant, wouldn't it have given the fat merchant a weapon, so he threw the stick on the ground.

Seeing the pirate walking towards him with his weapon raised, the fat merchant was frightened and hurriedly retreated, and the big yellow dog also retreated with his master, but the big yellow dog was still righteous, and followed closely behind his master, and did not swim in other directions.

"The fat man coaxed and ran away, hahaha!"

"Since you don't have the guts to duel with pirates, why don't you just stay on top honestly, what are you doing by jumping down, it's a shameful thing."

The crowd of onlookers began to coax again, it was completely a matter of watching the excitement, and the typical fear that the world would not be chaotic and a few people would not die, they all felt that it was not enjoyable enough.
