Chapter 123 Water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize
It was another new day. Zhang Song went to the academy as usual and walked somewhere. His eyes suddenly lit up. The newspaper seller of Fuyang tabloid was indeed here again...
Although the governor's mansion also issued the Yangzhou official newspaper yesterday and he bought it, he abandoned it after just one look.
What material is the paper? It is completely incomparable to the paper quality of Fuyang tabloids. The printing is rough and the layout is messy. As for the content... it is even worse.
The article on the front page about Mr. Sun is just hypocritical. He is a scholar but not an ordinary person... It is not that easy to deceive.
"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers, you can buy a Fuyang tabloid with just three copper coins!"
The newspaper seller shouted.
After hearing this, Zhang Song was shocked and the price was reduced!
Yesterday was still five copper coins, but today it became three copper coins. And the price was reduced after Yangzhou official bidding to price three copper coins. Is this going to officially start a war?
Young Master Kang, a prodigal son, is really... amazing!
Zhang Song sighed and said hurriedly: "Brother, give me one!"
"Young Master is here again!"
The guy smiled and said, "Today I only have three copper coins,"
"I'll give you money, so I'll just press the five copper coins!"
Zhang Song took the newspaper and said, "You are just losing money. Even if Young Master Kang has money, he will not be such a failure."
"That won't work. It's as much as you should!" The newspaper seller was busy refusing.
Zhang Song had no choice but to give up. He picked up the newspaper and started reading it quickly...
People are water, and officials are boats. Water can carry boats and can also overturn boats.
Seeing this title, Zhang Song was shocked and continued to read...
The article is about Mr. Sun, but it is about the person behind Mr. Sun. Here, he mentioned an official named Li, but he did not have a specific name.
But Zhang Song knew that this person was a military officer in Yangzhou City, Li Yu and Lord Li!
The full text tells in detail how Li supported Sun Yuanwai to start a business. Even the relationship between the two was clearly explained, and Li accounted for almost all of Sun Yuanwai's profits!
Big news, really big news!
Zhang Song was shocked. He didn't expect that Fuyang tabloid would really dare to reveal this!
After reading this, Zhang Song continued to look back. He liked Fuyang tabloids, not only because Fuyang tabloids repeatedly exposed major events, but also other pages are also very interesting.
And today, a new page has been added and the story has been serialized!
The name of the story is, The Legend of the White Snake!
A thousand seven hundred years ago, the shepherd boy saved a white snake from the snake catcher. In order to repay his life, the white snake stole the elixir and practiced the human form a thousand seven hundred years later... With the shepherd boy of that year, Xu Xian, who now has become a handsome, diligent and capable scholar, interpreting a love story of gratitude and grudges, like crying and complaining!
After reading the introduction, Zhang Song immediately became interested and continued to read it. The first chapter, past and present life (1)...
Bai Suzhen at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain has cultivated this body for thousands of years. She has attained enlightenment and transformed into a human being...
Zhang Song finished reading in one breath, and then took a deep breath. The excitement was really wonderful!
A magical and fantasy story, the White Snake repays his kindness to the scholar... It’s a pity that there is only the first chapter in this issue of the newspaper, and there is also an explanation at the end, and each issue will be serialized.
This is the real newspaper! Zhang Song sighed. He raised his head and saw that there were many people around him, all lowering their heads and looking at the Fuyang tabloid. The level of being enchanted was exactly the same as his!
"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers! Yangzhou official newspaper published by the governor's office can buy one with only three copper coins!" Aside from him, an official shouted.
He stood not far from the Fuyang tabloid seller, obviously targeting him on purpose, but no one was buying him.
"Shut up, Fuyang tabloids also sell three copper coins. The quality of the paper is many times better than yours!"
"I knew that Sun Buju's matter was not that simple. Everyone said that he was Lord Li's brother-in-law, and it seems to be true now."
"I like this story of the Legend of White Snake. It's really great. Although it's only the first episode, I decided to buy every issue of the Fuyang tabloid in the future, just to see this story!"
"There is another poem on this newspaper. I don't know if you have noticed it. After following the master's butt, there are no bones to go wherever... Human appearance is like a human being, and dog shape is not as good as a dog!"
"I know this poem was written by Young Master Kang. It is said that it is called a poem about traveling, which is about Shen Linfeng..."
There was a lot of heated discussion here, but Dong Yiwu and others in the governor's office had their faces ashen. What they were saying in front of them was a Fuyang tabloid!
"This prodigal son is so brave!" Dong Yiwu cursed angrily: "Water can carry boats, but it can also overturn the boats! What does he mean?"
Li Yu's eyes were even more dull. It's over, now it's really over! That prodigal son really dared to write.
From the fifth rank official, Li!
What is the difference between this and directly mentioning his name? Who else is there except him for officials from the fifth rank in Yangzhou City?
That prodigal son... knew very clearly, even every transaction he paid for every year was clearly clear!
He even suspected that Wang Kang had participated in it himself!
"Today, Fuyang tabloids were also reduced to three copper coins..." Dong Gan gritted his teeth and said, "Is this prodigal son really not taking money as money? What's the difference between this and giving it out for free?"
"Our official newspaper has been ignored by the news just sent. People from the same price have chosen Fuyang tabloid..." said an official in charge of sales.
"Will we cut prices again?" someone suggested.
"I'm afraid it's useless. A story serial has been added to the Fuyang tabloid. This story called The Legend of White Snake is very popular. Tomorrow, they will definitely buy it in order to continue reading this story..."
"Young Master Chen, can you write such a story?" another person asked.
Chen Linfeng seemed to have not heard anyone call him, and his eyes were still on the Fuyang tabloid. To be precise, it was the poem "Sending Chen Moumou"!
After finally passing the limelight, people almost forgot about it. Now this prodigal son is getting started again.
He also wrote the poem in the Fuyang tabloid!
Chen Moumou, isn’t this directly reminding people of him? Chen Linfeng is really crying, is there still nothing to finish!
"Father, why don't you come forward and seal the Fuyang tabloid directly, I believe Wang Dingchang would not dare to stop him directly!" Dong Gan said at this time.
"It's useless!" Dong Yiwu shook his head, "Now Fuyang tabloid, I don't know how many have sold..."
He said, looking at Li Yu, sighed softly and said, "I will try my best to protect you, but if I really can't protect..."
Before he finished speaking, Li Yu knew what it meant. If he really couldn't save it, then you could only end up like your brother-in-law.
Li Yu's face was as pale as paper.
"Don't blame me, if you want to blame, blame the prodigal son! He is even more courageous than his father!"
Chapter completed!
