"I……"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man's face turned red and he was a little embarrassed.

He frowned slightly as he watched the many ruffians leave.

Then he sighed and looked around, trying to restore his somewhat gloomy appearance to normal.

Then he caught up with the young men again.

Before several young people could get angry, he immediately took out a piece of silver from his arms.

"Well……"

In an instant, the young men who were originally disgusted with the middle-aged man fell silent.

The leading young man asked directly: "What do you mean, sir?"

"Hmm... I just want to know why you would take the initiative to help others?"

The man said depressedly.

Then it was explained.

He has also traveled to many places in Daxia, and he has seen a lot of ruffians like them, but not to mention those who do good things, there are very few who don't do evil things.

So he couldn't figure it out.

In this regard, several young people looked a little embarrassed.

But for the sake of that ingot of silver, they still looked at each other, and then the young man at the head said a little embarrassedly.

"Well...actually, if Mr. had come earlier, our brothers would be similar to the gangsters mentioned by Mr. in other places."

The middle-aged man was not surprised by this.

He continued to look at the young man seriously, waiting for him to continue.

The young man sighed.

Then he scratched his head and said softly: "Sir, you are a scholar and know better. So tell me, why did we do evil before?"

The middle-aged man was speechless for a while. How could he know why these ruffians did evil?

I can only say that they are evil people and do evil things.

if not?

In response, many young people stared at the man dissatisfied, and then the leading young man shook his head: "Sir, no one is born evil, and neither of us brothers!"

"Ah……"

The middle-aged man sneered.

In this regard, the leading young man was not annoyed, he just smiled and said: "We brothers did evil before, just because someone needed us to do evil. In this way, we can get money and survive!"

"That's all."

He looked at the middle-aged man and said mockingly: "Most of us brothers come from humble backgrounds and are not as noble as adults. We don't have the opportunity to engage in serious professions, but we still have to survive, right?"

"We were starving to death at that time, and then someone asked us to beat people and give us money. Sir, tell me, are we going to starve to death?"

The middle-aged man's eyes flickered, and he fell silent as he looked at the young man in front of him.

Then his tone became slightly better and he said coldly: "Then why do you not do evil now, but do good instead?"

The young man shrugged: "It's still the same reason!"

He looked at the middle-aged man and explained: "Sir, he should be a foreigner. He just came to Yanzhou City, so he doesn't know much about our place."

"Some time ago, two important figures came to our Yanzhou City. Well...it is said that they are a His Highness and his female family members!"

The middle-aged man frowned: "Did His Highness ask you to do this?"

After the words fell, the young man quickly shook his head.

Then he smiled self-deprecatingly: "Sir, you are joking. How could we brothers be so virtuous? How could we possibly attract that person's attention?"

"What I mean is that His Highness doesn't seem to like corrupt officials or people doing evil. Instead, he likes to punish evil and promote good!"

"His Highness killed many people in Yanzhou City in one breath some time ago. There were many high-status figures among them. Even our governor of Yanzhou City seems to have been imprisoned."

"So...sir, you said, these evil bigwigs have been dealt with, how can we still dare to seek death?"

After hearing this, the middle-aged man thought silently for a while.

Then his tone got a little better and he asked again: "But you do good deeds?"

The young man said happily: "This is our brothers' new way of life!"

"In the past, the gentlemen in Yanzhou City had many things that were inconvenient for them to do. We, like us, needed to do them. They gave us money and we lived. In this way, we did evil!"

"And now, all the gentlemen in Yanzhou City are frightened by His Highness, and they would never dare to do anything evil."

"On the contrary, it is said that the remaining high-ranking officials in the Yamen heard that His Highness likes to do good deeds and punish evil and promote good, so they also started to engage in this drama to please His Highness."

"They said that as long as we continue to do good deeds in Yanzhou City and let everyone know and see them, then these big men will give us money."

"Of course we have to do something good."

A few words.

The young man said matter-of-factly.

The middle-aged man was stunned on the spot.

His mind was buzzing.

At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind.

So that’s it? It turns out...it's just because of this?

Then, he heard the laughter of the young man next to him.

The young man scratched his head and said with a naive smile: "Sir, let me tell you, our brothers actually quite like the life we ​​live like now."

“In the past, when we did evil things, outsiders scolded us, our families looked down upon us, and our neighbors looked down upon us with disgust!”

"And now, hey, we have done good deeds and made a lot of money. Outsiders are trying to cross us, our family members are praising us, and our neighbors are giving us delicious food. To be honest, our brothers really hope that His Highness will I’m hiding in Yanzhou City for a while, it’s best not to leave!”

The young man smiled.

Many young people around were giggling, with happy smiles on their faces.

Only the middle-aged man was in a complicated mood.

At this moment, he thought of a few words in his mind.

One sentence is that everyone yearns for light and beauty, unless they have no other choice!

Another saying is, if something is good at the top, it will be worse at the bottom!
