A woman went into the city to sell donkeys and goats. The goat has a small bell tied around its neck. When the three thieves saw it, one of them said, "I will go and steal the sheep, so that the woman will not find it." ”

Another thief said, "I will steal the donkey from the woman." ”

The third thief said, "It is not difficult, for I can steal all the clothes from the woman." ”

The first thief quietly approached the goat at a bend in the road, untied the bell, tied it to the donkey's tail, and led the goat away. The woman looked around and saw that the goat was missing, and began to look for it.

Then the second thief came to the woman and asked her what she was looking for, and she said that she had lost a goat. The thief said, "I have seen your goat, and a man has led a goat into the woods, and he can still catch him." ”

The woman begged the thieves to help him lead the donkey and chase the goats herself. The second thief took the opportunity to take the donkey away.

When the woman came back from the woods, she saw that the donkey was gone, and wept as she went. As she walked, she saw a man sitting by the pond, also crying. The woman asked him what had happened.

The man said, "I was so tired that I was asked to carry a bag of gold to the city, so I sat down by the pond and rested, and fell asleep, and in my sleep I pushed the bag into the water." ”

The woman asked him why he didn't go down and get his pockets up.

The man said, "I am afraid of water, because I can't swim, and whoever wants to fish up this bag of gold." So I gave him twenty minas of gold. ”

The woman was overjoyed and thought, "God has given me happiness because someone else has stolen my goats and donkeys." ”

So she took off her clothes and dived into the water, but she could not find the bag of gold anyway. When she climbed up from the water, she found that her clothes were missing. It turned out that the third thief had stolen her clothes.

In the back hall of the workshop, Li Zexuan looked at the second news article written by Xiao Yu'er, and fell into deep thought for a while.

There's no doubt that this news is a headline party through and through, and the content is completely different from what you think of when you first see the headline.

But behind this news, there is even a hint of philosophy, so that the compulsion of the whole news has suddenly been raised to a higher level, and this Li Yu's understanding is not low!

"Xiao Yu'er, who did you listen to this story?"

After a moment of silence, Li Zexuan raised his head and asked.

Li Yu replied: "This is what happened to a woman in her mother's family who I heard from an aunt in our workshop yesterday, I thought that if this matter was written, everyone could understand a lot of truths after reading it, for example, greed will always be punished, don't trust people easily, easily believe that others will eventually pay the price, etc." ”

"Well, yes, you've played the news up in a new way!"

Li Zexuan nodded and said appreciatively.

The purpose of his previous newspaper was just to entertain the public, attract investment by the way, and make some money, but he didn't expect Li Yu to touch the bypass, triggering another function of the newspaper, that is, to educate the public, and to educate the public in a very vivid and interesting way, it is really rare, this girl's thinking is always very special and creative!

"Hehe, thank you for the compliment, the owner, have I passed? Can I be a reporter for Datang Daily in the future? ”

When Li Yu heard Li Zexuan's praise, he immediately smiled.

"Well, you've passed the test on my side, Brother Ma, what do you think?"

Li Zexuan turned his head to look at Ma Zhou and asked.

"Ma thinks it's okay, these two news articles have won the essence of the lord's three points, and Xiao Yuer is indeed qualified to enter the editorial department of "Datang Daily".

Ma Zhou nodded and said with a smile.

"Well, that's good, Xiao Yu'er, you will work under the steward in the future, and the salary will be calculated according to what I told you before, more work and more rewards!"

Li Zexuan heard that Ma Zhou also agreed, so he said to Li Yu.

"Oh~! Thank you sir, thank you Uncle Ma! ”

Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief and cheered.

Ma Zhou still couldn't help but have a dark face, and instantly felt that he was dozens of years older.

"Xiao Yu'er, you still owe me five times before, but you have to work hard to pay off the debt~!"

Li Zexuan deliberately quipped, he didn't care about the money, and said this purely to tease this little girl.

"Hmph, I know~!"

Li Yu pursed his lips and said dissatisfied.

"Hahaha!"

.........................

"Brother Ma, how is the compilation of the dictionary going?"

After teasing Li Yu for a while, Li Zexuan left the pavilion, followed Ma Zhou to the house, and asked.

"Back to the lord, the compilation progress of the dictionary has been nearly half, and it is expected to be completely completed in more than half a month!"

Ma Zhou replied confidently.

"Huh~? So fast? ”

Li Zexuan was shocked, in his mind, how huge is the amount of work in a dictionary, I'm afraid it won't be possible to finish it in a year or two, right? I never thought it would be so soon!

"Well, that's true, because in the compilation of the dictionary, the prince and the king of Wei have given great manpower and material support, and the dictionary we compiled this time is mainly based on the "Shuowen Jiezi", introducing pinyin, and improving the interpretation of some words, in fact, the workload itself is not large, so it can progress so fast."

Ma Zhou explained with a smile.

"Oh~~, I see!"

Li Zexuan nodded thoughtfully, and after a moment he asked, "Brother Ma, how is the Wonder Culture doing?" How many books can be supplied to that side every day? ”

Ma Zhou is now one of the high-level leaders of Strange Culture, of course he is very aware of these things, and he replied without thinking:

"Recently, the printing department has recruited a lot of new people and expanded a lot, and now we can provide about 2,000 books a day to the Wonder Culture side, and the variety and number of books will continue to expand. Nowadays, in front of the door of Wonder Culture, there will no longer be the situation when thousands of people rushed to grab books together when it first opened, and there are more and more people who believe in the prophecy that you said at the beginning, "the price of books is like onions". ”

Li Zexuan nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, that's good!" However~~ But the scale of the curious culture is getting bigger and bigger, what is the reaction of other bookstores in Chang'an City? Did you make any off-the-beaten-the-ordinary moves? ”

"This~~~"

When Ma Zhou heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and his face was slightly gloomy: "In recent days, with the increase in the number and variety of books on interesting culture, it is becoming more and more difficult for other bookstores to do business. Of course, there are still a large number of bookstores who have chosen to die, but they always have a lot of small actions behind their backs, and Pang Sige has recently arrested a lot of people with unknown intentions around the strange culture..........."
