Chapter 568 Big News(1/2)
The other awards of the Exiled Immortal Award are still under heated review.
And Fu Yao used this stock style to completely expand the newspaper.
He even recruited a group of down-and-out nobles to compile the news they heard from the streets. An issue would be published every two or three days. After it was published, it would be sold on the street immediately.
Newspapers are very cheap, costing a penny each, but the advantage lies in their large quantity, so Fu Yao's daily income is extremely considerable.
The people of Xianyang have gradually become familiar with the form of newspapers.
They are willing to spend money to read the newspaper. This thing is good. It is not only good for eating, but also helpful for literacy. After reading it, it can also be used as toilet paper.
Although the price of fairy paper has been extremely low after the patent of papermaking technology was released, for ordinary people, they are really reluctant to spend money on toilet paper.
The emergence of newspapers perfectly solved this problem. One piece of paper can be used for multiple purposes.
Today's newspapers are selling like hotcakes because the newsboy's hawking is so attractive.
The newsboy shook the newspaper in his hand and shouted: "Dr. Chunyu has filed a lawsuit again. Dr. Chunyu has filed a lawsuit against this newspaper."
Anyone who has some spare money wouldn't want to buy a copy and take a look?
After buying the newspaper, these people took one look and immediately became happy.
It turned out that after Chunyu Yue read the newspaper yesterday, he was half angry to death. The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't swallow it, so he took the newspaper into the palace and sued Fu Yao for the newspaper.
The news in the palace would not be spread out originally. But Fu Yao was a young master, lived in the palace, and was one of the parties involved, so he knew very well. He immediately sent a young eunuch to tell what happened.
After saying it once, the printing house printed the newspaper overnight.
It is said that Chunyu Yue cried bitterly in front of His Majesty and had to ask Fu Yao for an explanation.
After Ying Zheng read the newspaper, he called Fu Yao with a livid face.
Fu Yao looked innocent and said to Ying Zheng: "What is written in this newspaper is the discussion of the people of Xianyang, and not a single word is made up. If I don't publish this newspaper, the people of Xianyang will have a negative opinion of Dr. Chunyu."
Does slander no longer exist?”
Chunyu Yue was stunned for a while when he was asked, and it took him a while to come up with a rebuttal: "The Xianyang people's slander against me was originally discussed privately in twos and threes. But after this newspaper came out, I became a big man who was criticized by thousands of people."
What a wicked person."
"So, isn't this newspaper, Young Master, adding fuel to the flames and aiding the evil deeds?"
Fu Yao said: "Doctor, this is wrong. Do you think that without my newspaper, the problem would not exist? This is obviously deceiving others."
The two people argued endlessly, and finally Ying Zheng decided to forcibly buy a stake in Fu Yao's newspaper. At the same time, he selected several courtiers to discuss a charter as soon as possible. This charter must stipulate the principles of the contents of the newspaper. It must not violate the law, and it must not violate the law.
It can violate public order and good customs.
Fu Yao didn't have any objections and accepted it openly.
Chunyu Yue still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Although on the surface it seemed that he had won a case in front of the emperor.
But...but my reputation is still really damaged.
Chunyu thought about it for a while, and then said to Ying Zheng in great pain: "Your Majesty, the report by the young master may have been an unintentional mistake. But this businessman named Zhou Gui is simply a malicious frame-up."
Ying Zheng nodded with deep understanding: "Such unruly people are really abominable."
He raised his voice and said to the outside: "Come here, arrest this Zhou Gui. No matter what method you use, you must find out the truth."
"I would like to know who is behind this Zhou Gui. What is his purpose in framing Dr. Chunyu?"
The guard outside agreed and left in a hurry.
Chunyu Yue breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the matter was settled.
Da Qin may have some shortcomings in other things, but when it comes to arresting people, it is absolutely unprecedented.
It is impossible for a little Zhou Gui to escape His Majesty's arrest.
However... Zhou Gui really escaped.
The guards sent out by Ying Zheng were in vain.
In response, Ying Zheng was furious and sent additional manpower. The person must be arrested and brought to justice within a twelve-hour deadline.
Zhou Gui's ability to escape was due to the businessman's keen perception.
That night, after he framed Chun Yuyue for two thousand dollars, he couldn't sleep well.
Zhou Gui knew that the clay figurine was still very angry, and no matter how generous Chunyu Yue was, he probably would not allow others to slander him wantonly.
What's more, Chunyu Yue values face the most.
The more Zhou Gui thought about it, the less at ease he felt, so he quietly lurked near Chunyu Mansion.
Anyway, he wanders on the street all day long, and sleeping on the street is common as long as the weather permits.
This time, Zhou Gui stared at the gate of Chunyu Mansion for a long time.
As a result, after dawn, he saw Chun Yuyue coming out with an angry face, and then went straight to the palace.
Zhou Gui's heart skipped a beat, and he vaguely felt that something was wrong.
To be on the safe side, Zhou Gui greased the soles of his feet and slipped away.
As for his family... Zhou Gui is not particularly worried, and Wang Wan will not kill a few women and children to vent his anger. At most, they will suffer a little.
Besides, I can hardly save my life. As for my family, we can discuss it later.
The guard responsible for arresting Zhou Gui was originally from the State of Yan, so his name was simply called Yanren.
At first, Ying Zheng gave him ten men to capture Zhou Gui.
After Zhou Gui slipped away, Ying Zheng gave him another 300 men.
But the people of Yan knew that three hundred men might not be enough to capture Zhou Gui within twelve hours.
No one knows how long Zhou Gui has been running away. If he were in the city and he just found a place, how would he find it? Should he search from house to house?
This is Xianyang City, who doesn’t have a few powerful relatives?
If Zhou Gui left Xianyang City, it would be even harder to find him.
Woods, wasteland, and even mass graves. Just take a hiding place and twelve hours will pass.
Therefore, Yanren felt that his head was a little unstable.
He did not blindly send out 300 men, because the Yan people felt that if they were looking around like headless flies, they would get twice the result with half the effort. It would be better to think carefully about what should be done and have a plan, which might give them a chance of survival.
So the Yan people called all three hundred of their subordinates, and everyone expressed their opinions and worked together to think of a solution.
Soon, they reached a consensus: this was an impossible task.
Later, they reached a second consensus: there is only one person in the world who can complete this task, and that is to banish the immortal.
So the Yan people hurriedly went to visit the banished immortal.
Before going, Yanren was a little uneasy, worried that he would not be able to get in without 100,000 yuan.
But after informing him of his name, Li Shui let him in directly.
After all, these guards looked prosperous and worked directly for the emperor. In fact, they also supported the family, and their economic situation was not as good as imagined.
The 100,000 yuan was set up by Li Shui to impoverish the powerful, not to plunder the common people.
The fact that Yanren entered Shangjun's Villa for free was enough to move him to tears.
After meeting Li Shui, Yanren saluted repeatedly and then explained his dilemma.
After Li Shui heard this, he smiled slightly and said to the Yan people: "What's so difficult about this? Just relax and wait in my Shangjun Courtyard for a few hours. This Zhou Gui can't escape far."
Later, Li Shui ordered people at the printing house to make a wanted notice.
There was such a thing as a wanted warrant before.
The artist draws an image based on the witness's description. This image is simpler than a simple drawing, and it is drawn based on the witness's description and the artist's imagination. Needless to say, its accuracy is not guaranteed at all.
What really works for this kind of wanted notice is some description, such as a mole on the face, an injury on the leg, a limp when walking, etc.
There is also Da Qin’s strict inheritance verification system.
This kind of wanted notice can arrest people, but it is not enough for the Yan people to arrest people within twelve hours.
The wanted notice made by Li Shui's people focused on Zhou Gui's photo.
When Fu Yao published the newspaper before, he took a photo of Zhou Gui, and now it comes in handy.
On this piece of paper, most of Zhou Gui's photos were taken up. Below there were a few lines of words, concisely writing some of Zhou Gui's characteristics, and then added: Anyone who can provide clues about this person, once confirmed,
A reward of five thousand coins will be given. Anyone who can capture this person and bring him to the government will be rewarded with a reward of ten thousand coins.
Subsequently, thousands of copies of this wanted notice were printed at an extremely fast speed.
Li Shui handed the wanted order to the Yan people and said with a smile: "Send your three hundred people to spread this wanted order. As for the reward from above, you can figure it out yourself."
The Yan people thanked him profusely and left with the wanted order.
Half an hour later, almost all the people in Xianyang City heard the news that Zhou Gui was wanted, and most people had circulated the wanted order.
Even if some people don't know Zhou Gui, they are deeply impressed by this person after seeing the photos.
