His first reaction to the news was: This is unscientific.
How could Xia Fanglan run to become a revolutionary party? She shouldn't have such action! Lin Youde shook his head, the initial surprise was fading away, and his usual rationality was gradually returning to him. It seemed that he underestimated the world a little.
This is not a game, but a real "life". Even those "vases" who cannot resist his golden fingers will not act according to his wishes honestly.
In the game, as long as the NPCs are loyal enough, they will not rebel. If you give an order, they will definitely carry it out. If you don't express your opinion, they will just stay dumbfounded, but this is not the case here.
Lin Youde rubbed his forehead in annoyance. Now is not the time to sum up experience. He must first deal with the situation at hand.
"Brother Lin," Du Qifeng saw that Lin Youde hadn't spoken for a long time, so he came up to offer advice, "We can bring in Brother Ninth Brother's brothers to make a grand spectacle. We can also have about thirty people here, plus Miss Ba..."
"Why are you dragging all these people out?" Lin Youde rolled his eyes and asked, "Go and fight with others? No one should move, it's enough for you and me to go."
After saying this, Lin Youde snapped his fingers and signaled the maids to get down. Then he walked squarely along the corridor of the inner courtyard of Longyuan Pavilion to the main entrance with the old god present.
Lin Youde had made up his mind in just a short moment to face the old man of the Xia family alone. It's not that he was brave, but after running through various thoughts in his mind, Lin Youde felt that this was the most reliable one.
Respond. Anyway, Xia Fanglan is not with him, and he is not a revolutionary party. Apart from hooking up with Xia Fanglan and eating a lot of tofu before, today's matter has nothing to do with him, Lin Youde.
What can the old man of the Xia family do to him, Lin Youde? Although the Xia family is a prominent family in Guangzhou, he is not the only wealthy family in Guangzhou.
With this in mind, Lin Youde decided to play a show of Hengdao immediately retreating from the enemy alone, and led Du Qifeng out. Xuedaiba originally wanted to follow, but Lin Youde explicitly ordered him to stay in the courtyard of Longyuan Pavilion and wait.
The street in front of Longyuan Pavilion was empty. The vendors on the street seemed to have received the news a long time ago. By now, the stalls were almost gone. Only a few merchants with stores were still doing business with their doors open, but no matter what
Neither the shopkeeper nor the customers were in the mood to discuss business, they were all gathered at the door waiting to watch the show.
The teahouse on the corner of the street was doing a booming business. Almost all the gangsters from the nearby streets who liked to join in the fun gathered here. The dining room on the top floor of the teahouse was filled with respectable gentry. Lin Youde looked up at the window of the dining room and saw a few familiar pictures.
Face.
"Hmph." Lin Youde sneered, that's what the so-called human nature is like. When you are in good times, they will come to fawn over you, but when you are in trouble, they will just sit back and watch.
Shopkeeper Lin swung his sleeves, clasped his hands behind his back, and stood still in the middle of the street in front of everyone, waiting for the Xia family team to come over.
Lin Youde's plan was a happy one: since the fight couldn't start anyway, he had to show some momentum.
At this time, the surrounding onlookers were already whispering, and the content was nothing more than "This shopkeeper Lin is really brave", "He has a lot of talent", "He is a man" and so on.
At this time, the Xia family's men came from the corner of the street in a mighty force.
When Lin Youde saw it, he felt guilty. There were a lot of people there! Looking from the direction of Lin Youde, he saw a huge crowd of people, covering the entire street. Du Qifeng next to him also explained to Lin Youde very "intimately"
What: "The Xia family's main residence in Guangzhou has more than 400 servants, and there are a total of 1,700 households around the ancestral hall. Although many surnames live together, they are all relatives of the Xia family's branches or servants. No less than a thousand people were mobilized. Judging from this posture, it is estimated that the whole family
Here it comes."
Lin Youde began to regret it at this time. He was not a hero to begin with. It was just that he had been too easy these days. He faced a group of thousands of people alone. Sorry, he really didn't have the courage. These days, Lin Youde always thought that he
He is considered a figure in Guangzhou, but now it seems that the famous families in Guangzhou really look down on him, a little shrimp who has just made a decent living.
The clans in Guangdong are really powerful. They were indeed powerful enough to defeat the British army back then. This number of people...
Lin Youde wanted to turn around and run away now. If things didn't work out, he would have to ask Du Qifeng to call him out to calm the situation. But at this time, the situation could no longer tolerate Lin Youde's regrets - just bring people out from the beginning. If he couldn't hold on, he could just stay.
He is the butt of jokes. He ran out confidently on his own, only to run away as soon as he saw how powerful and powerful he was. He became the butt of jokes. He, Lin Youde, should stop messing around in Guangdong.
Lin Youde can be so fierce sometimes.
When he was in the fifth grade, Lin Youde transferred from Guangzhou to Zhanjiang, known as the southernmost tip of mainland China, because his family's old man and his old comrades changed military rest homes. Lin Youde, who was used to enjoying the benefits of being in a school that had a joint military-civilian relationship with the army, did not adapt to Zhanjiang for a while.
Due to the rampant violence in local schools, I accidentally offended the bully in the school. As a result, one afternoon in the third week after transferring to another school, Lin Youde was called by the bully to block him in an alley with a group of people after school.
The grandson also put all the pocket money in his pocket and handed over all the money, but seeing that he was still going to be beaten, Lin Youde became heartbroken and yelled, "Fuck, the rabbit bites people when he gets angry," and he took the risk - anyway.
If you want to be beaten, then I will fight you to the fullest!
Later, Lin Youde stayed in that shabby place in Zhanjiang for four years. He was in the first year of high school. During this period, he had been working as a young master and a rich second-generation pony.
Those unemployed young people who were entrenched in the city who liked to prey on wiry-looking guys like Lin Youde never caused trouble to Lin Youde. Once, Lin Youde was hit on the thigh, but Lin Youde escaped unscathed.
Now it's time again. Some people are like this. They may languish for the rest of their lives, but once they are forced to a point of no return, they suddenly become heroes.
As the saying goes, times make heroes, it's nothing more than this.
At this time, Lin Youde figured it out and took the risk. He faced the murderous crowd with magnanimity, holding his head high, chest and waist straight. It happened to be a north windy day, and the corner of Lin Youde's coat was flying straight in the wind.
, revealing the legs that were spread out and nailed to the ground, looking quite like a young hero.
At this time, the onlookers were chewing their tongues even more happily.
"Shopkeeper Lin is not an ordinary person. He came to Guangzhou in his early twenties and established such a foundation."
"Isn't it? Isn't it? Looking at him like that, no wonder all the little ladies are fascinated by him."
"Since ancient times, heroes have emerged from youth."
The last sentence somehow reached Lin Youde's ears, and Lin Youde complained in his heart: "Sister, my current mood can be described by a well-known allusion from time and space: 'Captain M, there is glue on both sides.' I
Now it’s not even considered a hero, it’s a ‘being’ hero, damn it.”
Complaints are complaints, but the score still needs to be set.
Seeing the Xia family's brigade stopped a few steps in front of him, Xiashesheng, the old man of the Xia family who was pulled over by a rickshaw, got out of the car and stared at Lin Youde fiercely with bloodshot eyes.
Lin Youde took a step forward, bowed to Mr. Xia and said, "I heard that the old man mobilized troops and came here. Lin has been waiting here for a long time."
"Hmph!" Old Man Xia Sheng snorted heavily, picked up the civilized stick and hit Lin Youde on the head.
It was too late, but it was too soon. The self-defense stunts that Lin Youde had pointed out for almost a year finally came in handy. In an instant, Lin Youde's subjective time slowed down. The old man's swing of the stick changed into slow motion. Lin Youde calmly drove himself.
Although the movement speed of the body has not accelerated due to the slowdown of subjective time, the physical ability of a 20-year-old young man is more than enough to deal with the stick swung by the old man.
The moment "bullet time" ended, Lin Youde had already firmly grasped Old Xia's civilized stick in his hand.
"Old man," although Lin Youde had an apologetic smile on his face, his words seemed not to be silent or humble, "I, Lin Youde, firstly did not hide the young lady, and secondly, I did not do anything to disgrace the Xia family. This stick of yours is unjust and unjust. I'm sorry.
I can not accept."
"Humph!" Xia Xiasheng snorted again, withdrew his civilized stick, and stood there angrily without speaking. The eyes of the servants behind him could have spitted out fire, and they seemed to be waiting for the old man's order.
Then he pounced on and tore the arrogant kid in front of him.
Lin Youde was unwavering - he had nothing to be shaken, and he was ready to fight anyway.
He raised his hands in the air and bowed to the servants of the Xia family: "Today you all came to me, Lin, to accuse me. I think there must be some misunderstanding. However, the root of this misunderstanding is probably because I, Lin, am really dissolute in my words and deeds."
, so I will give you a warning first, and I will definitely prepare a banquet the next day to reward you all."
Lin Youde paused, looked at the situation for a moment, and then continued: "Miss Xia Fanglan ran away from home today and is missing. Our two families should work together to bring the young lady around. If we are entangled in this situation,
, what happened to the eldest lady will make the neighbors in Guangzhou laugh.”
Everyone in the Xia family looked at each other. When many of them were mobilized, they heard the news that Lin Youde had kidnapped the eldest lady. Now that Lin Youde said it so frankly, looking at the attitude of the old man and the servants who knew the inside story, they all
Starting to get confused.
In addition, Lin Youde promised a meal of food and wine. Who knows about the lively and debauched life of Jinhuanghuang Nightclub in Guangzhou, so many people are still thinking about this meal.
On Lin Youde's side, when he saw that the scene was almost shocking, he changed his tone of respect, bowed to Xia Sheng, and made a gesture of invitation: "Mr.
In response to Lin Youde's invitation, Xiashesheng "hummed" for the third time, but it sounded much gentler than the first two times. Then the old man made a gesture behind him, and several old slaves quickly turned around and faced the gathering.
The Xia family team behind shouted: "It's okay, it's okay. Everyone has received the reward and gone to drink tea. It's time to disperse."
Lin Youde breathed a long sigh of relief. At this time, his feet suddenly softened. Fortunately, there was a force in time to support his body from the side, so that no flaw was exposed.
Judging from the soft touch of the two warm things clamping Lin Youde's arms, and the fact that the person providing assistance did not show his figure, there was no doubt that it was Xuedaba - this girl actually stayed by Lin Youde's side.
As Mr. Xia strode towards Longyuan Pavilion, Lin Youde whispered to Ba: "Thank you."
"You're welcome," the invisible girl replied in a low voice, "You have performed so well, how could I let your efforts go to waste at the last moment?"
Lin Youde once again felt from the bottom of his heart that this girl was really nice, so he looked forward to the day when she would appear on his staff page.
