Chapter 86: The Road Is Uneven

The woman led her son and kowtowed vigorously and begged, but the shopkeeper was indifferent, and his speech became more and more unpleasant, and he even rolled up his sleeves to beat someone.

Yang Mu finally couldn't help it and glanced at Shen An.

Shen An understood, and immediately shouted: "Stop!" ”

The shopkeeper made a move, turned his head and saw Yang Mu and a few people, he was stunned for a moment, his fierce face immediately changed, a smile bloomed on his face, and he said with a smile: "How many masters, haven't you left yet?" Is it that the clothes don't fit, let the small one change for you? ”

Yang Mu glanced at him coldly: "What is it about this mother and son that offends you that you want to be humiliated like this?" ”

"This ......" The shopkeeper was a little embarrassed, and said stubbornly: "Childe doesn't know, this is the fourth time that the mother and son have come to the shop, and they can't get rid of it, and they have delayed the business of the shop." ”

"Isn't it over buying her a piece of cloth, your shop that sells clothes also needs cloth, and this piece of cloth costs a few pennies, so there's no need to hurt people, right?"

Childe laughed. The shopkeeper smiled bitterly and said: "The cloth they bring is some coarse cloth, and they can buy a lot of cheap cloth by shouting on the street, and the poor make clothes at home, and the coarse cloth clothes in the small shop sell less, or so much coarse cloth." To put it mildly, this kind of cheap thing that dies and begs for nothing should be beaten to death, so as not to obstruct your eyes! ”

"Killed...... Hmph, whoever gave the guts, you might as well give it a try! Yang Mu's face was cold, his eyes were full of gloom, a small shopkeeper, on the streets of the royal city, he dared to say words to beat people to death, and he looked casual, could it be that people cannibalism has reached this point?

The shopkeeper was obviously shocked, frightened by Yang Mu's might, and shrunk his neck slightly, when he usually talked about the untouchables with those sons, didn't they all smile and disdain, why did the son-in-law he met today not only meddle in things, but also sympathize with the untouchables?

On weekdays, aren't they the worst bully of the poor? You won't blink an eye if you kill one or two untouchables, right?

Nobles, it's really hard to serve......

Just thinking about it, I saw a slave-like person next to him, waving his fist, slamming over!

"Ahh

"Ouch!"

"Don't, don't fight, this lord, hey...... Yes! ”

The shopkeeper was lying on the ground, dodging and begging for mercy, facing the vigorous Shen An, without the slightest power to fight back.

The shopkeeper also ran out, and when he saw that it was Yang Mu and a few people, he knew that this was the son-in-law he couldn't afford to provoke, so he hurriedly shrank behind the door, not daring to make a sound, and the pedestrians around him stopped for a while, but they only watched from a distance.

Everyone is very puzzled, they have only heard of rich and noble people bullying civilians, when did civilians dare to beat a rich shopkeeper like this?

Tired of being alive?

After a while, the shopkeeper had a blue nose and swollen face, and the voice begging for mercy gradually became quieter, leaving a low moan.

Yang Mu stopped Shen An and looked at him coldly: "How is it, do you still want to fight?" ”

"Childe, spare your life, don't fight! Don't fight! The shopkeeper cried and begged for mercy as if he had been pardoned, got up from the ground with difficulty, and kept kowtowing.

"You injured this mother and son, how should you compensate?"

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then understood something, and shouted into the store: "Little fool, quick, get the silver out!" ”

The shopkeeper hurriedly came out from behind the door, ran to the counter and took a bag of silver, and handed it to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper was about to open the bag and take out some of the silver, but Shen An snatched it away and put it all in the hands of the stunned woman next to him.

"This ...... Childe ...... This is a few months of belongings...... "The shopkeeper was distressed, but he didn't dare to rebel, so he had to squeeze out a little dry smile, hoping that the other party would be merciful and give him back a part.

After all, there are at least a few dozen taels of silver in the money bag, and it will take several months to earn it back by relying on this shop, except for all the expenses and connections.

"Humph! If you are touched by our son today, even if you learn a lesson! Shen An glared at him: "Either spend money, or leave a leg, choose for yourself!" ”

The shopkeeper shuddered, his neck shrank, and he changed color in shock: "A few masters, spare me, don't want the money, give it to her, don't want it!" Don't! ”

"Don't trouble her in the future, you know!" Shen An's shoes stepped on the shopkeeper's face and warned.

The shopkeeper nodded hurriedly, tears in his eyes, a big man, tears and snot flowed, not only did people feel pitiful, but felt relieved.

Yang Mu gave a cold look, and then motioned to Ji Ling'er to help the mother and son up and leave together.

Suddenly, the people who watched the excitement avoided one after another, and whispered in secret, bullying happened every day in the imperial city, but it was rare for a few poorly dressed people to beat a rich shopkeeper.

However, this is just a rarity, soon everyone scattered one after another, busy with their own things, in everyone's hearts, rich people are not a good thing, even if they are killed, they deserve it.

As for whether these people will be retaliated against by the shopkeeper, it is even more of a matter of everyone's business, it is not about themselves, ordinary people can take care of their stomachs is already very good, what does the life and death of others have to do with themselves?

Yang Mu also noticed this situation, and couldn't help frowning, he felt a kind of indifference from the eyes and expressions of these people, and even saw that some people were pointing behind their backs as if they were watching a performance, laughing, it was simply insensitive.

This can't help but remind him of Mr. Lu Xun's human blood steamed buns and Kong Yiji.

This country, not lightly ill!

Yang Mu secretly wrote it down in his heart, and at the same time, he was also glad to have implemented the literacy program earlier, because the only way to awaken the people of a country is to give it a soul, and this soul is culture!

For example, during the Republic of China, national self-confidence almost reached a historical low ebb, and it was several major ideological movements that awakened the insensitive ordinary people and laid a solid foundation for the continuous external challenges that followed.

It is no coincidence that Germany has rebuilt from the ashes twice in its history, and each time has quickly become a world power, but compared to its neighbors, the Germans consider themselves to have inherited the Prussian tradition as a spiritual and cultural symbol, which has led to the huge cultural differences and the speed of its rise from the surrounding countries.

Culture is the spiritual backbone of a country, a culture with strong vitality, and the root of the rise of a great power.

Of course, Yang Mu has also heard some views before, thinking that the United States is an exception, so this is really wrong, the length of history has little to do with culture, the United States is free and open, absorbing the advantages of many advanced cultures in the world, blending into a new culture that is on the rise, and the initial period of a new culture is the time when it has the most vigorous vitality, which is equivalent to the Spring and Autumn Period in ancient China, the Han and Tang Dynasties, and New China, every cultural turning point is the time when a country rises the fastest.

And at present, the most suitable for Cangguo is Chinese culture!

Taking its essence, removing its dross, and then absorbing the shining points of some other cultures, it will surely become a huge driving force to change the accumulated shortcomings of Cangguo and support the rise of the country!
