Chapter 88 Diao Chan (315)

How could Chen Heng hold back? He immediately stepped forward. He approached the other side cautiously and sighed.

The man felt pity for Chen Heng when he saw him like this, and asked, "Little brother, are you in trouble too?"

"That's right." Chen Heng was waiting for this sentence, and responded immediately.

The man saw that Chen Heng was young and kind-hearted, and wanted to help him, so he said, "If you have any difficulties, you can tell me, and I can help you."

"It's hard to say what's wrong." Chen Heng pretended to sigh, and then bowed to the man to thank him, "This big brother, you are so kind-hearted, what happened to you that made you look so embarrassed."

As a wanderer in the world, the man sighed to the sky, probably because he had no one to talk to and nowhere to tell, so he told Chen Heng the whole story.

It turned out that the man's surname was Ma, and he was a porter at Guazhou Wharf in Yangzhou City. It was not easy to make a living on weekdays, but he was lucky enough to be as lucky as a sesame cake seller, and he married a beautiful wife and went home.

After the couple got married, they were very affectionate, and there was no one with a double surname nearby, so they lived a happy life.

This was a good thing, and Brother Ma worked harder to make money to support his family because he had such a virtuous daughter-in-law at home.

Life should have been so stable, but he never expected that one day he went home early because of bad business. But he saw his father sitting half naked at the door of his room.

This was too much, just when Brother Ma was in doubt, his father saw his son coming back, and then he said in a panic: He came to get something, and his daughter-in-law hadn't opened the door yet.

Seeing that his father looked different, Brother Ma responded a few times and watched his father go back to the house. He walked towards the house and was about to push the door, but found that the door was locked from the inside. After finally calling his wife out and asking her to open the door, he saw that her eyes were slightly red, obviously she had cried.

The couple closed the door and asked one question and the other answered.

Brother Ma then realized that his father often knocked on his wife's door when he was away.

Women are naturally sensitive to such things. After a while, they are afraid of their father-in-law and often avoid him on purpose.

But they live under the same roof, and the husband has to go out to work to support the family, so there will always be gaps for the father-in-law to catch him.

After hearing this, Brother Ma was shocked and angry, and immediately turned around and went to his father's room to have a big fight.

The father and son parted unhappily, and his father threatened that if his son and daughter-in-law dared to move out of the house, he would go to the government office to sue them for being unfilial.

Brother Ma came to the government office this time for this matter.

But there are two reasons why he stagnated. Influenced by the ethics of the previous dynasty, the father can sue the son, and if the son sues the father, then no matter whether it is reasonable or not, it is a violation of human ethics and will be convicted.

The rules of the Yong Dynasty were slightly better. If a son sued his father, he would be beaten with twenty boards first.

The second difficulty was that his mother died early. Although his father didn't care about him much since he was a child, he was an old man after all, and he only had one son. Brother Ma went to ask the lawyers on the street, and they all said that he would definitely lose this case.

After all, no matter which dynasty, filial piety is the foundation of governing the world. How could an only son abandon his father and move out to live alone?

Chen Heng was shocked and angry when he heard it. How could there be people in the world who dared to steal the ashes. Who did he think he was? A third-class general in the court?

"Brother Ma, can you write?" Chen Heng asked coldly.

Ma Dayin nodded and said, "I can write a few words."

Chen Heng immediately pulled Ma Dayin and hid in a shop on the corner of the street. He called Xue Ke and asked him to take out paper and pen.

After letting Ma Dayin write a few words on the paper, Chen Heng took it and looked at it. The handwriting was quite neat, and each stroke was simple.

Chen Heng found a table and began to imitate Ma Dayin's handwriting. With just a few strokes, Chen Heng finished writing two pieces of paper.

After folding them, Chen Heng called Ma Dayin and said to him: "Brother Ma, when you go to the county government office later, don't beat the drum to complain. When you see the county magistrate, don't say anything, just hold these in your hands, kowtow and cry. If the county magistrate asks you what you want, just hand over the two pieces of paper."

"What does this mean?" Ma Dayin was manipulated from beginning to end and is still confused.

"This is a talisman that can save you. Remember, you must not open it." Chen Heng warned, "Only let the county magistrate see it himself."

Under Chen Heng's repeated assurances, Ma Dayin walked out of the shop doubtfully. He was obedient and didn't beat the drum to complain. He just said that he had something to ask the county magistrate.

If the common people want to see him, then the county magistrate will naturally let him see him. Otherwise, it would be a scandal if it was told to others.

Seeing Ma Dayin walk into the county government office, Chen Heng sat down at the door of the shop calmly. Xue Ke and Xin Suzhao watched from beginning to end. At this moment, they didn't care about anything awkward and asked Chen Heng what was written on the paper.

Chen Heng just smiled and said nothing. Not long after, he saw two officials running out.

After a long time, two officials dragged an old man to the government office.

After a while, Chen Heng saw Ma Dayin running out happily and ran straight to Chen Heng.

"Little brother, it's done, it's done. You are really amazing. The county magistrate saw the paper you wrote and ordered someone to call my father to sentence us to live separately."

Chen Heng smiled and nodded. Xue Ke and Xin Suzhao saw that Ma Dayin was still holding a piece of paper in his hand, and each of them grabbed a piece. Xue Ke opened his own and saw that it was written: My wife has the beauty of Diao Chan.

He looked at the one in Xin Suzhao's hand and it was written: My father has the heart of Dong Zhuo.

Only then did the two of them understand the secret on the paper.

Chen Heng had no time to pay attention to them. Now that he had found his destiny, he was very happy. After discussing with Ma Dayin, he would take the matter and publish it in the newspaper, omitting his name.

Ma Dayin didn't know what a newspaper was, but after all, Chen Heng had done him such a big favor, and he wouldn't mention their family's name anyway, so it didn't matter.

After the three of them sent away the happy Ma Dayin, Chen Heng stretched out and said proudly: "The matter is done, we can burn Red Cliff."

After watching such an interesting play, Xin Suzhao suddenly felt that all the hard work these days had been in vain, and couldn't help but encourage him: "Brother Heng, if you want to find this kind of thing, don't you have a pen yourself? Just close your eyes and make up a paragraph. "

Chen Heng's expression changed on the spot, he grabbed Xue Biao and said, "Speaking of this matter, I want to explain it to my brother in advance."

Seeing that he was speaking so seriously, Xue Biao quickly stopped and listened.

"From now on, we will never allow any fraud in our newspapers. This rule will not be broken until death." Chen Heng said sternly. Seeing that the first newspaper of the Yong Dynasty was about to be written by himself, he I don’t want to take the lead and break the rules of this industry.

"Okay, brother, I'll follow you." Xue Biao nodded heavily.

Xin Suzhao couldn't help but stick out his tongue, knowing that he had just said the wrong thing.

Chen Heng didn't mean to blame him. He turned around and smiled to comfort him, "If it weren't for my brother, I would have almost forgotten about this. Thank you very much."

"Okay, okay, you kid, do you still care about my face?" Xin Suzhao waved his hand casually and said without worry, "Let's go, brother will take you to a restaurant to have something to eat."

In the next few days, Chen Heng dragged Xue Biao and Xin Suzhao through the streets and alleys. I collected a lot of information about renting a house and finding lost items.

On the fourth day, Chen Qi rushed to Yangzhou with what Chen Heng wanted. His father was very worried about his son suddenly using so much money. Chen Heng had no choice but to take his father to the printing shop and Xue's house.

When Chen Qi saw how luxurious the Xue family's front door was, he believed that his son was not being deceived by others.

Only then did he put down half of his worries and go home. Looking at it this way, it seems that the ancients had their own reasons for decorating their homes with luxury and luxury.

Now that everything was done, Chen Heng took Xue Biao to stay in the printing shop and worked hard to publish the first newspaper of the Yong Dynasty.

Ten days later, a thousand newspapers half the size of an arm were carried to the two men by craftsmen.

Chen Heng picked up one and opened it in his palm.

This first newspaper was very crude, and the paper used was of low quality, far inferior to the rice paper used by scholars.

But Chen Heng was very satisfied. After all, the price was only five cents a piece. It was such a cheap price, so what else could he ask for high quality?

It doesn’t despise me for being poor, and I don’t despise it for being ugly.

We are made for each other.

Chen Heng happily flipped through the newspaper. The first page at the beginning was naturally his "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman". This was the pillar of their newspaper, so it naturally had to be placed on the front page.

The second side is the story of Ma Dayin, but his name has been changed and his figure has been hidden. Chen Heng used Zhang (pseudonym) as a substitute, which was regarded as protecting Ma Dayin. Under Ma Dayin's story, there is information about renting a house, finding lost property, etc.

There was only so much content on the first page of the newspaper, but Chen Heng liked it more and more as he read it, and he couldn't help showing off Xue Biao.

"Even if all these thousand copies are sold, we will still lose money. Brother Heng." Xue Biao looked a little sad.

For this batch of newspapers, their printing shop hired more than a dozen craftsmen and apprentices.

This bunch of people eat horse chews for just five cents each, and it will take the year of the monkey and the month of the horse to make back their money.

Chen Heng laughed loudly after hearing this, pointed to the end of the newspaper, and said, "Brother, just look at it, it's not a chicken that lays golden eggs, it's a golden mountain."

Xue Biao took the opportunity to look at Chen Hengzhi's position and saw it read: This newspaper publishes housing rentals for free. If necessary, you can go to the Jing'an Newspaper Shop on Wuyun Street, Sancaifang. (next to Yangji Restaurant)

I was so angry that I was so happy with the code that I missed the sixty-minute check-in experience. It has been three days and I missed sixty points of experience.

I still owe you twelve chapters, cheers, hahahaha.
