The Chinese love peace the most, but it's not that the Chinese don't fight.People who love peace fight to find someone who is weaker than themselves. This is a Chinese characteristic.Warlords beat villagers every day, and students beat teachers every day, because civilians and teachers are easy to bully.Students don't fight warlords just like warlords don't mess with foreigners.They think that there is no justice in the world, and those with guns are justified, and those with the ability to fight are justified.Both the warlords and the students understand this truth, but what is strange is that on the one hand, they implement this principle of superiority and inferiority, and on the other hand, they always say to foreigners: "We love peace and do not fight!" On the one hand, they are opposed to military training in schools.On the one hand, he talked about saving the people, on the other hand, he watched the warlords rebel, and did not organize death squads to kill the warlords.This kind of "illogical" thing can only be done by Chinese youth.

Foreign middle school students can ride horses, shoot guns, and set off cannons.Vendors selling green vegetables in foreign countries will also fight in an orderly manner on the battlefield.So foreign countries can bully China.Chinese students call military training "the cultivation of slaves", but Chinese students shout "Down with imperialism" every day!If such a shout really knocked down imperialism, imperialism would have disintegrated long ago!Unfortunately, the cannons of the imperialists and the citizens who can shoot their own guns cannot be scared away with just a shout!

Zhao Ziyue was a young man who beat up his classmates and tied up the principal, but he didn't dare to offend the officer who forced Tan Yu'e to be a prostitute. That officer is a must hit! It's fine if you don't fight, why don't you hand him over to the court for punishment?vomit!Zhao Zi said it's not easy to be busy!Not too troublesome, why beat the principal for no reason? Zhao Zi said he was afraid of things!It is weakness!It's insane!He trembled immediately when he heard the word Bingjun, even though he said: "Down with the warlord!" The warlords will not fall unless the students can lead the people to do it with real knives and guns!When the warlord fell, the foreigners pulled back the cannons!Wanting to kill wild animals without sharpening the knife is probably not much different from "Wu Dalang catches rape".

Those who do not have a heart of "nosy" are not worthy of being a citizen of the republic!Without sufficient military training, there is no qualification to live in this world where power is the axiom! Zhao Ziyue resigned from Yan's house, wrote Zhou Shaolian a farewell postcard, and ran away to Beijing.I'm afraid that officer will fight with him! During the two-month Tianjin expedition, except that he did not shoot and set fire, he stayed in hotels, ate restaurants, kissed, and smoked. Zhao Ziyue really felt like walking around in a movie. He sat on the train and thought:

After all, friends in Beijing and China are reliable!Yan Naibo and the others are cunning, eat me and drink me, and it's all over, there is no sincerity at all! Not to mention, how many bureaucrats did I know, even if it wasn't wasted money! Poor Tan Yu'e!Give her thirty bucks, good deed!Good deeds are rewarded! ………… When Zhao Ziyue was in Tianjin, it was Cui and Li Shun who the people in the rooftop apartment missed him most.In the past two months, shopkeeper Cui has at least sold less than ten catties of soju, and Li Shun has at least made one or two dollars less.Although Zhao Ziyue kept calling Li Shun a bastard, but Li Shun was born with a good temper, he only remembered the good points of Zhao Ziyue, and forgot that "bastard" was not very useful.Besides, Zhao Zi said that after scolding the bastard, he often regretted his recklessness and gave Li Shun a few more money.

The shopkeeper Cui is an old "Jingyouzi" who has no education but is skilled.A square body with a gourd-shaped head on top.Two small eyes, don't look at other things, only look at foreign money, long-stem and big pipe are always stuck in the mouth: smoke comes out of the mouth, bad thoughts come out in the heart; but the bad thoughts in the heart are not as obvious as the smoke in the mouth. Searching. Li Shun is tall and thin, and the guests in the apartment call him "Great Wisdom Ruoyu".Because he always eats five or six big bowls of safflower when he eats braised noodles, but he will never see meat growing on his face.Two rusty eyes, no matter day or night, always seem to be asleep, but they are absolutely infallible in judging the authenticity of foreign money and copper notes.Therefore, from the perspective of the body and the spirit, the emblem of "great wisdom is like a fool" is worthy of its name.

Li Shun was cleaning the two copper signboards outside the apartment door when he saw Zhao Ziyue turning around from behind the Drum Tower in a rickshaw.He opened his throat and shouted, "Mr. Zhao is back!" With this shout, the shopkeeper, the cook, the cashier, and the guests who hadn't left the house ran out with a coaxing sound like a crow's nest had exploded.Those who snatched suitcases, those who picked up hats, those who shook hands, asked how they were playing cards in the past two days..., the questions and actions splashed on Zhao Ziyue like a torrential rain.Li Shun couldn't go forward, and outside the crowd, picked up the little black-and-white dog guarding the rooftop apartment and kissed it.

While shaking hands and answering, Zhao Ziyue turned his eyes to one corner and looked around for Ouyang Tianfeng, but there was no sign of him; he didn't even see Wu Duan and Mo Danian.His heart moved, he didn't know whether it was good or bad, he hurriedly went to the house and asked Li Shun to make tea and wash his face. "Li Shun!" Zhao Ziyue wiped his face and asked, "Where is Mr. Ouyang?" "Sick!" "what?" "Sick!" "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Ah!" "Sir! You've only been in the door for less than five minutes, and besides, I don't have a place to talk—"

"Don't break your mouth! Where is he?" Zhao Ziyue threw down the face towel and ran to the south room. "He went out with Mr. Wu, and he will be back in a while." Li Shun said and poured Zhao Ziyue a bowl of tea. "Li Shun, tell me what will happen to the apartment after I leave!" Zhao Ziyue ordered Li Shun. "Drink! Sir! It's amazing! It's amazing!" Li Shun said in a ghostly manner: "Since Mr. left, the apartment was full of chaos: Didn't you leave, Mr. Ouyang, in fact, I am According to Mr. Wu, and Mr. Mo, also heard from Mr. Wu, entered the bank; no, I mean that Mr. Mo entered the bank; after Ouyang fought with Mr. Mo!—”

"Li Shun, can you explain the vernacular? Say one more thing!" Zhao Ziyue said with a half-annoyed half-smile. "Yes! Sir! Let's talk about it from the beginning, okay?" Li Shun himself smiled: "Didn't you leave? Mr. Ouyang thought your leaving Beijing was Mr. Li Jingchun's idea. So he came out every day and went in to sell it, what a skinny monkey Want to eat swan meat, what kind of thin monkey's buttocks are hanging on the sky; drink, too much! He scolded the uncle from the little hairy monkey to the horse monkey. I can't remember the names of those monkeys. Let's just say, He scolded Mr. Li and ran away. Mr. knew that Mr. Li was an honest man, so he moved out without saying a word. Didn’t Mr. Li leave? Mr. Mo refused to agree. Drink! His face is as red as an eggplant Yes, I quarreled with Mr. Ouyang first; then I talked more and more, and guess what, Mr. Mo hit Mr. Ouyang with a teacup, a teacup—but he didn’t hit him, luckily! Mr. Wu, and all the shopkeepers went in Persuading the fight, Mr. Mo insists on beating up Mr. Ouyang! Drink! We usually see Mr. Mo being honest and anxious, and it is even more difficult to provoke him when he is really angry! I am coming back from shopping. I was also busy persuading me, but it’s terrible, Mr. Mo stepped on my toe, and Mr. Mo crushed the corn on my little toe twice, drink! I screamed in pain, screamed My toes are still swollen to this day; but, after Mr. Mo calmed down his anger, he gave me a dollar, so I forgot about the pain in my feet! Let’s just say, Mr. Mo moved away too!” Li Shun breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Mr. Wu told me that Mr. Mo has now entered a bank and worked as a bank officer. He counted more than 30,000 foreign currency bills a day. My husband, Mr. Mo is a bit Good fortune, you look so cute with a fat head and big ears! Didn’t Mr. Mo leave? Mr. Ouyang is sick. Listen to what Mr. Wu said——Mr. Wu knows what’s going on——Mr. Ouyang is short-tempered and depressed ; But the day before yesterday I took a sneak look at his medicine bottle, it seemed to be some kind of 'General Wulin Tang'—"

"Nonsense!" Zhao Ziyue said angrily and on the verge of laughing, "Okay! That's enough! Go buy some snacks, enough for three people!" "Sir! Do you understand what you said today? Are you clear?" Li Shun asked with a smile on his face. "Understood! Clear! Good!" "How much is a word of understanding worth, sir?" "At the end of the month, you have fifty cents for wine, how about it?" Zhao Zi said, he knew that otherwise there was no way to drive Li Shun away. "Thank you sir! Hey!" Li Shun ran out, and came back just after leaving the house: "There is one more thing I didn't say: Mister bought a new pair of leather shoes, hey!" Li Shun was led by the hope of 50 cents, and bought the dim sum back with a little joy. "Mr. Zhao, Mr. Wu probably came back. I saw them from a distance on the street." "Put the snacks here and make another pot of tea!" After Zhao Ziyue finished speaking, he ran out the door.After going out for a few steps, Ouyang Tianfeng leaned crookedly on Wu Duan's arm and walked together.When Zhao Ziyue saw Ouyang's sickness, he felt infinite emotion in his heart, and went to shake his hand.Ouyang's face was about to smile, but it turned into a look about to cry before he got the smile right.Neither of them spoke, Zhao Ziyue was stunned for a long time before shaking hands with Wu Duan.Wu Duan stomped his feet vigorously because some dust had fallen on the new shoes; then he took a look at Zhao Ziyue.Zhao Ziyue was so focused on Ouyang that he didn't have the heart to ask about the history of Wu Duan's leather shoes.So the three of them all lowered their heads and slowly entered the third room. "Hi, old Zhao!" Ouyang Tianfeng said aggrievedly: "You didn't even tell me when you left! If I died yesterday, you will still be in Tianjin Gaole!" "I didn't go to Tianjin !" Zhao Ziyue argued eagerly: "I'm home, I have something important to do at home!" "Guess what?" Wu Duan looked at Zhao Ziyue's suitcase and said, "If you didn't go to Tianjin, why did you have a note of 'Tianjin Rihua Hotel' on the suitcase?" "Whether you go home or go to Tianjin, there is no need to talk about the past! Let me ask you," Zhao Ziyue said to Ouyang Tianfeng, "Why are you sick?" "Li Shouhou is mad at me, and Fatty Mo bullies me! They are all your good friends, what am I, a poor boy, and no one will care if I die!" "Old Li entered Capital University, Mo Danian entered Tiancheng Bank, there are secrets!" Wu Duan said: "Even you, guess what? You have a secret when you go to Tianjin!" "I don't care about others," Zhao Ziyue patted his chest and said, "Anyway, I came back to find you again! You treat me as a good friend and No, I don't care, anyway, I will never lose my heart!" "Old Wu!" Ouyang Tianfeng said to Wu Duan weakly: "Don't ask him, he won't tell us the truth; Yes, stay overnight." "That's right! I stayed at the Rihua Hotel for one night—actually it's not a night, it's only five or six o'clock! Ouyang, how are you?" "When I saw you, I felt so much happier! I knew I was hungry!" "I just bought some snacks, Li Shun, tell him to make tea, he went there to play! Li-Shun!" "Hey! - just tea, sir!"
