Ah! "The man wasn't surprised. He just stretched out his finger and called Yu Xiaosan over.
Yu Xiaosan compared the situation in front of him and realized that he couldn't run away anyway, and after all, this person saved him, and he looked more like a good person.
So I ran over obediently.
"Okay, let's go!" The man holding the stone touched Yu Xiaosan's head, pointed to the back, and ignored him.
Instead, he looked at the thugs who had just robbed him: "You also know what this kid does. Isn't this a bit too unethical?"
The rogue quickly gave in and said, "Brother, I'm sorry, we have been really hungry for a few days..."
"Bah!" The man interrupted them: "So what if you've been hungry for a few days? You are so young and you know that you are out to do things to make money. What about you? Are you just waiting to rob others of their hard-earned money?"
The rogue's face looked a little confused when he was told this, and he muttered that he no longer dared to speak.
Of course, that man also knew these two sentences. It would be impossible for such an idle scoundrel to change his ways.
He said directly: "I don't care what you do on weekdays, but Brother Snake has said that whoever dares to attract the attention of these newsboys will break a hand the first time, and will be caught by us the second time, haha..."
He didn't say what happened the second time, but the few scoundrels who heard it all felt a chill down their backs.
"Okay, just like you just said, do you want us to do it or do you want to do it yourself?"
The gangsters looked at each other, gritted their teeth, and used a stick to directly break an arm of their companion next to them.
"You guys are wise!" The man said and threw ten copper coins in front of a few people: "That's all, use it to treat your injuries! If you are willing to do good things in the future, come to the east of the city to find us, follow Brother Hemp Snake, I won’t let you starve to death!”
After dealing with all this, he saw that Yu Xiaosan was still there and had not left.
"What's wrong? Boy?" he asked curiously.
Then Yu Xiaosan took out two copper coins from his personal bag and said, "These two coins among the twenty coins belong to me. I would like to thank my benefactor for saving me today."
"Hahahaha, you are quite interesting. Just now I asked you whether to give money or not. Now I don't ask you for it, so why are you taking the initiative to give me money?"
"They asked me for money for no reason, so naturally I wouldn't
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Yes, but you saved me just now, and I have to repay the favor. Now I only have these two copper coins, please accept them. "
"Okay, kid, go sell your own newspaper. We still need to hang around here!"
The man didn't have any money from the mistress, so he left with the others.
Tang Ping had long expected that there would be a mixed bag of good and bad people in Chang'an City, and he was afraid that someone might try to seduce these newsboys.
It is better to leave this kind of matter to the government officials and soldiers than to the current numb snake.
That numb snake now has Tang Ping's support and is thriving in Chang'an. Tang Ping also said that as long as they don't do anything harmful to nature, he will let them go.
Now, Ma Snake's main business is lending money, and the interest rate they charge is the lowest among loan sharks in the city.
Then there is the need to collect protection fees from some traders in the East and West markets to prevent them from being harassed by gangsters when doing business in Chang'an.
Generally speaking, although he still didn't write about very shameful things, Tang Ping knew that this kind of thing was inevitable in this era.
Since it cannot be avoided, it is better to make it controllable.
He is even willing to invest some of his own money to support these people.
Not long ago, Ma Snake even directly defeated a gang that specialized in human trafficking in Chang'an City, and received a private reward from the government.
It can be said that the Ma Snake has suddenly become the largest group of forces in Chang'an City that is officially recognized secretly.
As for those gangsters in the past, the things they did with Ma Snake now were basically done by the people and not by the officials. Even if they dared to raise their heads when they saw official officials, they naturally had no objections.
Especially when I was sincerely thanked by Yu Xiaosan like I did just now, I felt like it was a good feeling to be thanked for doing something good.
The first batch of 60,000 newspapers that Li Chengqian sold in Chang'an City actually only took most of a day, and they were all sold out before evening.
Almost half of the people who bought newspapers were curious people in Chang'an City, and the other half were basically merchants or literati.
At this time, Yu Shinan was holding a newspaper in his hand. The four characters "Datang Weekly" on it could be seen at a glance as His Majesty's Fei Bai.
Then look at the first and second pages, which are all big decisions made by the court recently.
Usually these things are told to the public by posting notices, but now we can do this
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
If the sample is printed in a newspaper, it should spread faster!
Looking at the third page, Yu Shinan couldn't help but be fascinated by it. It actually showed the detailed story of the arrest of Tan Mo, the magistrate of Hedong Province.
From how someone reported it in the first place, how the state government sent people to investigate, how the county magistrate resisted law enforcement, and how he was finally arrested and brought to justice, a series of events are clearly written in vernacular.
In this way, not only can the people understand it clearly, but they can also watch it with gusto, just like listening to a story.
At the same time, it also revealed a lot of subtext.
For example, it taught people how to report such corrupt officials anonymously, and how the court severely punished such corrupt officials. Finally, it was said that not only were those who reported anonymously not in any danger, but they were privately rewarded with a large sum of money.
It is conceivable that such reports can not only rectify the officialdom and make some unscrupulous officials fearful, but also show the people the purity of the court and the protection of the people.
Even a mature person like Yu Shinan has to admit that newspapers are indeed good things.
The next step is the essay collection. Yu Shinan smiled, this thing is actually quite tempting. After all, the more newspapers are sold, the wider the spread.
This literary man has a good reputation. If he were younger, I am afraid he would not be able to help but be moved. You can think of it, you will probably see some new articles in the next issue of the newspaper.
As a bachelor of the Hongwen Palace of the Tang Dynasty, he was naturally happy to see such a thing happen.
Looking back, Yu Shinan was slightly shocked.
There were some anecdotes here, but Yu Shinan didn't have time to read them because the lower half was filled with half-page advertisements.
Li's Medicinal Materials Store.
"I'd rather take medicine and live in the dust, hoping that no one in the world will be harmed!"
Yu Shinan muttered a few words in his mouth, and the corners of his eyes became moist.
"I don't know who said this. If it is really what the owner of Li's Medicinal Materials Store said, then this person is really something special!"
Although the two sentences were straightforward, even he couldn't help but be moved by the great compassion and pattern revealed between the lines.
