Chapter 216: Talking to Yourself
Lao Yue gave up the idea of a quick solution. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Xiao Jing's attitude was not as cooperative as he showed at the beginning, since it would take some work.
"If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, Yue wouldn't have believed that Gongzi was living such a simple and simple life." He stared at Xiao Jing's eyes and said unhurriedly: "However, there is still something unclear about Yue: if the newspaper really has no assets, where does the nursing home inside and outside the courtyard come from?" I've been to a lot of places, and I can be regarded as a little eye-catching, these masters are not ordinary people, right? ”
Xiao Jing was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "You don't know, these people were not invited by Xiao." A few days ago, I went to Linzhou, and a family owed me a great favor, and I had to repay it. I tried every means to excuse myself, but people just didn't follow, and in desperation, I had no choice but to accept these nursing homes and send them back to my home first. Naturally, the family paid for me. Oh, don't say it, it's not bad to have someone at home, at least you can feel a lot more at ease, and you're no longer afraid of those small people coming to harass you......"
He explained for a long time. Lao Yue was very impatient when he heard this, and finally found a gap, he hurriedly interjected: "Let's put this down, the son will have to bring a lot of entanglements when he goes out, right?" I'm afraid that the cost of hiring a car alone will be ......."
Xiao Jing interrupted Lao Yue's question with a long sigh. He shook his head vigorously before he said, "Speaking of this, Xiao is even more full of bitterness. Why do you run a newspaper? Naturally, it is for the country, for the court, and for the common people. Therefore, as soon as I received the news of the accident in Linzhou, the Mirror sent reporters, which was to lift people and boost morale; Some time ago, Xiao went to Linzhou again, in order to write out the story of Linzhou's revival one by one, and then spread it all over the world, so as to serve as a model of the indomitable children of my Darui Dynasty and set an example for all generations.
These two trips are for the righteousness of the world and for my Darui Dynasty. As long as I can seek some welfare for everyone and prepare more spiritual food for people, what if I suffer a little? Lao Yue, don't look at me hiring a big car to go out, but it's all money from between my teeth to save money. Along the way, I stayed in the cheapest inns everywhere, ate the coarsest meals, and was really tight on money, and had to find someone to eat like a beggar. By the way, I also went to Dinghe County once, and on the way to save money to live in a big car shop, but I was stunned by a thief with drugs in the middle of the night. Hey, I was almost sold into the mountains, and I couldn't even save my life!
Sometimes I think: It's all someone else's business, can I do it? Because of my willfulness, my family has to suffer and suffer with it...... Why bother?
Xiaoya is a big girl, and she is so beautiful...... However, let me do this, others know that the newspaper is very poor and does not want to marry my family, and she can only "Pengmen does not know Qiluoxiang, and intends to use a good medium to benefit herself", and my sister-in-law lives her hard life alone......
When Xiaoyuan was growing up, he should have eaten more good food, but he could only follow us to order coarse tea and light rice, and sometimes he might not be able to eat enough. Hey, I brought this child back from the heap of victims of the drought in Hedong, I thought I could let him live a good life, but I still ...... hungry and hugged him like this."
As he spoke, Xiao Jing's eyes turned red. His voice was choked, and he was still trying to continue, but after only a few attempts, he couldn't cry anymore and couldn't speak anymore.
I don't know if it's because I've been in the play too deeply or because I remembered the hard years in the past, Dong Xiaoya, who was about to go out after wiping the ground, also shed tears. Under Lao Yue's gaze, she turned her head slightly and sobbed a few times before dodging out of the room.
This Nizi has always had shallow eye sockets, so she guesses it touched her heart, right?
The sad Xiao Jing cried for a while before gradually rescuing his crying. He smiled at Lao Yue very embarrassed and took a few deep breaths before saying: "However, when I think that as a grass citizen, I can share the worries of His Majesty and bring Haoran righteousness to Da Rui, I feel that it is worth it." So, these are all voluntary for me.
Since you are here today, the surname Xiao will tell you something from the bottom of my heart: Money is something outside the body, I don't like that thing, and I don't want to live a life of fine clothes and food. But I want something else! I have been loyal to the court and solved problems for the people, so why don't I have a little reward?
During the severe drought in Hedong, the rich families who contributed money and grain all got plaques issued by the government. What the mirror newspaper has done is no worse than them, it is not an exaggeration to say that there are "countless living people", if the county magistrate Wang knew the merits of our waiting, how good it would be!
I haven't told anyone about these hardships. If you hadn't come and mentioned it again, I really don't know who I could talk to. Hey, it's better to say it......
Lao Yue, who was rolling his eyes, was almost out of breath. I just mentioned it, who knew you were holding back such a big lump?
It's really saying that if you're fat, you're panting. Lao Tzu gave you a high hat, and you climbed along the pole to become a "model of loyalty and patriotism", and finally talked as if the county owed you something, what does this mean?
I'm here to collect taxes, not to talk nonsense with you!
Because he said too much, Xiao Jing also closed his mouth.
It is best to mix the truth and falsehood together. What I said just now is seven true and three false, Xiaoyuan's life experience, the robbery of a black store and other major events are all facts that are fake; As for the little things, it is inevitable to do some harmless artistic processing.
However, if someone really wants to check, they can't hide this from anyone. After all, the newspaper has been based in Puhua Town for a long time, and as long as you inquire carefully in the town, you can find out what you want to eat.
Others are not stupid, Xiao Jing didn't expect to be able to bluff others with his mouth. To be precise, it's just his way of showing his attitude, which is equivalent to throwing a soft nail.
"Childe's words are indeed very touching." Lao Yue said expressionlessly: "It's just that I can only take care of this tax matter, and I can't take care of other things, please forgive me for not being able to help." The method of receiving what Shicai Yue said is also appropriate, if the son has no objection, this matter will be decided. ”
Xiao Jing hurriedly shook his head and said, "Of course there are objections. I see that my brother is my own person, so I won't go around the bend with you: it is not appropriate to be extremely three-percent, and the newspaper can't come up with so much money at all. As you heard just now, if you have to pay such a heavy tax, I and the people in this courtyard will have to go out to drink the northwest wind. We can't live our lives anymore, where will there be mirror newspapers in the future, isn't this killing chickens and eggs? ”
Lao Yue said coldly: "Then in the opinion of the son, how is it more appropriate to collect taxes?" ”
Xiao Jing smiled slightly and said, "At most, half percent, no more!" ”
