(It rained for a day and a night...... I've been freezing and trying to get into the bed! Today's two more~)

The second shopkeeper who sent flowers to Hate Liu and others to the hole circle is Zhao Defa, compared with Qian Mao'er's truthfulness, he is probably a more easy-going kind of person.

Of course, he may be too biased to say this, after all, it is very difficult to sum up a person in just one word, except for the dead.

In some things, Zhao Defa is actually very principled. For example, in the pronunciation of his name, "Zhao" is a surname, and everyone has been reading the same way for thousands of years, but the word "Defa" can be read differently: the more elegant reading is to read "De" according to the pronunciation of "must"; The rougher way of reading is to read according to the pronunciation of the dialect "go", and the result of this is naturally that some people choose an elegant name, and some people choose to call him according to the pronunciation in the dialect.

Zhao Defa likes to be called by people in dialects, he is not a literate person himself, and the fact that he knows that his name has two readings is because the gentleman who teaches in the village laughs at him when he tells him.

It is said that people with the same surname and generation should have a name for "De", but Zhao Defa disdains to be with those people, what Zhao Degang, Zhao Dehua, Zhao Degong and the like can't be compared with their own names at all, why? Because he is destined to be the one who wants to get rich and make a lot of money!

Of course, at this time, he may not be thinking about how to make a lot of money, since he sent the three people into the hole circle, he has been hesitating whether he needs to continue to wait outside, after all, the three people don't know when they can come out after entering the door, and although he quietly ran to the back kitchen to eat half a roast chicken before going out, but because he was worried about being seen by the chef and trembling, he didn't feel it anymore at this time...... The most important thing is that the three of them got off the car in advance, and the horse did not dare to approach the hole circle, so he could only stay outside a hundred feet away from the hole circle - no one in the hole circle knew that there was such a person as himself, and when it was time to open the meal, he naturally did not know that there were still horses to be fed, and there were people who needed to be fed!

What especially frightened him was that the beast in the circle roared again and again, and the horse was out of his control, and he ran out for forty or fifty zhang before he stopped. It wasn't too much of a problem, at most he would wait for the roar to subside and then take a few steps back—that was his original idea.

However, when he was so hungry that he needed to concentrate on shifting his attention from his stomach to something else, he vaguely thought of something else: the tiger and lion barked just now, could it be that the "beast fight" began in it again? If so, I don't know who the bad luck would have been thrown to those beasts as food...... Could it be the three people I brought in? Not really, right? Didn't the three of them be invited as guests? I heard that the identities of these three people are not simple...... I skipped work yesterday, and I can't hear it all from others, and I don't know who is higher and who is lower than the identity of the old father of the Kong family......

Although Zhao Defa sternly denied his absurd thoughts at the beginning, as time passed, the screams inside were loud, and until Kong Quan returned to calm for a long time, he still didn't see the three of them come out of it, the more he began to think about it uncontrollably, and more and more felt that maybe the three of them were fed more and more likely to make a sound.

"In that case, you don't have to wait any longer, right?"

He asked himself this, but he always felt that it would be too selfish to answer "yes", but who else could he ask? He tried to ask the horse pulling the cart, but although the horse understood human nature and did not understand human language, he never explicitly told him whether to "wait" or "go back".

After asking several times, his conscience was still sad after all, and Zhao Defa couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in himself. In his view, those who are destined to get rich have the potential of businessmen, and this so-called "potential" is to know how to enter low and go high, know how to be shoddy, know how to only talk about interests and not morality...... "conscience", businessmen probably do not have this thing.

And they have.

Zhao Defa felt pain for a moment that he had a conscience...... If he continues like this, he may not be able to make a fortune in this life, and if he can't get rich, then the name of his name and his disdain for people of the same race and generation will all become the laughing stock of others!

He felt he had to make a decision: conscience or wealth?

Making a decision is a painful thing, especially if it is about one's own ideals and reality. For Zhao Defa, it is easier to choose whether to eat the left half or the right half when he steals roast chicken, and at that time he only needs to see which side has more meat and which side has less meat.

But this ...... After all, it's not a matter of more meat and less meat.

I'll ask one last time! He thought to himself: If I need to wait, this horse or something else will give me a hint; If I didn't have to wait, the sun was warm and the breeze was blowing, and I drove back to the cyclamen building!

After all, it is about the glory and wealth of the rest of his life, so Zhao De asked a little cautiously: "I...... Should we keep waiting...... Or is it better to go now......"

"Let's go now!"

As soon as he had finished speaking, he felt a sinking in the carriage, and a man entered the carriage as he spoke, so that he did not even see which of the three men had entered.

However, "one person" is for sure. Zhao Defa was stunned, and that thought suddenly flashed in his heart again: Did the other people who didn't come out be fed to those beasts?

There was a little worry in his heart, and his reaction was naturally slower. This seemed to make the people in the carriage a little unhappy.

"Hurry up......" Hua Hatliu urged, although he also knew that even if he didn't urge, the little second who was driving would not stay here for a long time, but he didn't want to wait here for even a moment of time, he just wanted to leave here quickly and find a popular place to breathe.

She Qing and Niu Wangqiu did not come out, Niu Wangqiu is still easy to understand, after all, he was entrusted by Hua Hate Liu to stay to protect Kong Biao, and at the same time, it was also to watch Yan Shangwen; And what about She Qing? He is going to protect Qian Mao'er, according to the news that She Qing has mastered, Qian Mao'er's home is near the Confucius Institute in Beicheng, and it is relatively close to the Confucius Circle at this time...... Besides, Kong Biao promised to lend him a horse, and it would be faster to ride the horse to Qian Mao'er.

Zhao Defa didn't know what was going on, and he knew that he shouldn't care about it, so he had to keep his thoughts in his heart and let them swell and grow.

"Drive!" With a shout, he took the opportunity to exhale the dull breath in his heart, urging the horse to return the way he had come.

"Don't be in a hurry to go to the cyclamen, just walk around the city!" After walking a few steps, Hua Hate Liu suddenly commanded. He could detect the dissatisfaction of Xiao Er driving outside, and for a moment he even regretted that he didn't shout She Qing to accompany him, in fact, he was not in such a hurry to rush back, even if he went to the Confucius Institute first, it was actually fine......

With a wry smile, he lay down in the carriage without regard to his image, the carriage was still the one they rode in when they came to Raozhou, but because there were many people when they came, it seemed crowded, and at this time he was alone in it, but it seemed spacious, even if he was allowed to lie half-reclining.

The car did not move fast, he leaned on the corner of the car, listening to the sound of the car rolling over the gravel outside, and through the curtain he could occasionally catch a glimpse of the scenery outside when the corner of the curtain was lifted; His body swayed slightly with the carriage, and because of the heavy plush cushion under his buttocks, he felt very comfortable after shaking; He was actually very chaotic in his heart, but he didn't know what he was worried about, maybe it was because he was worried that he was unable to save the fresh lives under the high platform, or maybe it was because of Yan Shangwen's madness and because of Kong Zhongman's cruelty......

Although it is said that he is allowed to "walk casually", Zhao Defa will not be stupid enough to trust the horses and let the horses pull the carriage everywhere, he intends to go to the location of the city where the Confucian Mansion is located first, so that even if the other party temporarily changes his decision halfway, he can rush to other places as much as possible - from this point of view, his consideration is still considerate.

"Stop!"

Zhao Defa was still hesitating whether to bypass this lively street and go to the street next to it, which was deserted but much easier to walk, but when he heard the people in the carriage stop him.

stopped the carriage, the person in the car did not hesitate, and got off the car directly, at this time Zhao Defa knew that the one inside was the leader of the three.

"Mr. Chou." Out of courtesy, Zhao Defa immediately put on a smile and stepped forward to greet him.

"Well, thank you for your hard work." Hua Hate Liu chuckled, looked ahead, and asked curiously, "Here is ......?"

"Mr. Hui's words, this is the location in the city, and the street in front of it is the most lively street in the city, and you can see how lively it is from here...... How do you say that, there are many street shops, right? Haha, the little one is uneducated, and I heard this word from others, and everyone said that about this street......"

"Yes, it does." Hua hated Liu chuckled, and seemed to think that Zhao Defa's words were very interesting, "I'll take a walk by myself, you can either find a place to rest or go back first." ”

"This ......" Zhao Defa's face was slightly embarrassed, and he said: "Since the little one is driving you out, he naturally wants to drive you back...... If you insist on this, there is a Chen Kee tea shop in front of you, and the small one is waiting for you there? ”

"It's fine." Hua Hate Liu said happily, took out five taels of silver and handed it to Zhao Defa and said, "Guess you haven't eaten well yet, you might as well buy some food and drink tea while eating and waiting for me." ”

"This ......" Zhao Defa was slightly stunned, he didn't expect the other party to make such a generous move...... Is this a sign that you are going to get rich?

He excitedly took the silver ingot in his hand, and for a moment he forgot to politely refuse, and when he reacted, he was about to open his mouth to thank him, but found that there was no one in front of him.

"A good man's life is safe!" Although he felt that he was saying this mostly to find a psychological balance, Zhao Defa still insisted on saying to the empty place in front of him.
