Chapter 255: Excitement
Zheng Mingyuan said with a smile: "Your article is written, we will not delete it, it will be published as a special publication immediately, and it will be transferred to various newspapers all over the country within ten days. This report can make Nan Anhou famous again in Dawei, and you are the same Yanke. ”
"I don't want to work in the newspaper business anymore." Wei Yi knew what Zheng Mingyuan meant, and said with a smile: "When the time comes, I will naturally be the chief editor-in-chief, and I will be regarded as the deputy." ”
"Yanke, you are straightforward, and I am not hypocritical." Zheng Mingyuan was overjoyed and said: "In the future, as long as I am in the weekly newspaper, I will fully support you Nan'anhou and Yanke." ”
"The last time the newspapers accepted the benefits of others, they arched the fire on the newspaper, and they wanted to roast Mingda on the fire, which also deceived many people, but fortunately, the weekly newspaper has not been involved, and in comparison, ten tabloids are not as big as the weekly newspaper." Wei Yi smiled: "Mingda has a letter to me, and he is still very affectionate." ”
"At the beginning, we didn't log in, and some shareholders still had opinions." Zheng Mingyuan said with emotion: "It's good that I didn't board it at the beginning, otherwise my face would really be swollen now." ”
Wei Yi sneered: "It is advisable to chase after the poor man, this is what Mingda often says." Since the weekly newspaper has a special issue, of course, it has to name the tabloids that were questioned, insulted, and ridiculed at the beginning, and ask them to explain why they did what they did in the first place. ”
"Yes, it's a trifle." Zheng Mingyuan said with a smile: "There are many things in the press that fight each other, and we are very good at doing such things." ”
Wei Yi smiled slightly, the competition in the newspaper industry is indeed very big, Taizu founded a newspaper is a precedent, although the major newspapers are to log in to the imperial palace to copy, find outgoing officials to analyze national policies, and log in social news, literati's elegant collection of articles, poetry, those tabloids with only a dozen people, or even a few people, if they want to survive, they can only use people's benefits to speak for others, as long as it is not a big taboo such as rebellion, even the strange words of the Son of Heaven they dare to say.
Anyway, the newspaper industry is to pick up the missing pieces and fill in the gaps, this is what Taizu said back then, and it can be regarded as the talisman of these tabloids.
Although they are not government-run, newspapers like Fuzhou Weekly have many talented or retired officials among them, and they have always lacked favor and recognition for those tabloids that rely on frivolous news and collect money to sell articles.
When Wei Yi was the main writer, he also fought several pen battles with the tabloids, and he was no stranger to such things.
At this time, there was a roar on the riverside, and it seemed that a large crowd was shouting and cheering, Wei Yi and Zheng Mingyuan hurried over, and the crowd was already crowded, and it was almost impossible to reach the riverside.
Fortunately, the Ministry of Punishment and the officials of the Fujian Prefecture rushed over with a large number of patrol battalions and officials in the palace to maintain order, and the gates of the Fuzhou Mansion City were not closed tonight, and it was obvious that the officials were also waiting for this moment.
Wei Yi saw Zheng Liqi who rode to the riverside, pirates are also thefts, every time a pirate commits a crime, the punishment envoy can't get out of it, the more Chen Yutai commits something, the greater the pressure on Zheng Liqi, if Chen Yutai is ambushed this time, it will also be a heart disease for Zheng Liqi, of course he will rush over as soon as possible.
In the tsunami-like cheers, the officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion opened up a road, and Wei Yi and others followed behind Zheng Liqi, and they also successfully reached the riverside.
Many men looked excited, women were already crying excitedly, and many of them were cursing, but they were also silently praying to comfort the souls of their relatives who had been killed by the pirates.
Wei Yi originally thought that he would not be too excited, after all, he had no relatives who died at the hands of Chen Yutai and his subordinates, but when he saw the excited faces, and the faces that were so excited that they were distorted, he still couldn't help but get excited in his heart.
There was a man in his thirties, thin and lean, and it was obvious that he was a steely man who could hardly reveal his emotions, with black skin, thin and lean, typical of the image of a Fujian man who had been at sea all the year round, and the lines of his face were as clear as a knife, and now his hands were clenched, and he was half-kneeling on the ground, and when the whole ship of pirate heads was carried down, this man's body was not as good as the trembling of the Lord.
Of course, it's not fear, but a natural reaction to restrain emotions at their peak, which has nothing to do with fear, just trying to restrain yourself.
Wei Yi's body almost trembled...... He couldn't imagine what had happened to this man, and he didn't want to imagine it.
When the whole basket of human heads was lifted down one after another, the entire riverside was filled with baskets containing human heads, and a strong smell of blood spread along the riverside, and the human heads were hideous, which was not surprising, and everyone was distorted at the moment when the human head was cut off, which was a normal reaction.
Baskets of heads were carried down one after another, and many people anxiously inquired if there was Chen Yutai's head...... People's hearts are like this, although their relatives may die under the knife of an unknown pirate, but since they don't know who did it, of course, all the blame must be counted on Chen Yutai alone.
"Chen Yutai's head is still in Qizhou Port." A government official said loudly: "The mansion will return to Fuzhou Mansion tomorrow morning, and when the time comes, he will come back with Chen Yutai's head, and Nan'an Hou and Qizhou Zhizhou Lu Wenxian will go to the capital together to appease the envoy to inspect the head in person......"
The crowd was even more buzzing, and many sounds broke out at once, and many people cried directly, and even couldn't help themselves with excitement.
"Nan'anhou is really a rare hero on my Fujian Road."
"Kill Chen Yuyong first, then defeat thousands of bandits, and behead Chen Yutai in less than two months after taking office, it's unimaginable."
"Previously, there were many people who questioned him about fighting for power and profit in Qizhou, and he didn't use his mind on the matter of exterminating the Qishan thieves, but now it can be seen that Nan Anhou is secretly arranging, but it is ridiculous that those people are really villains."
"Isn't it? I have long said that Nan Anhou is not that kind of person. ”
"In the clan, there are either anointed children, or they are rare people, Nan'anhou is the most capable clan after King Qi, and it is also a shame that people have always put the people's affairs in mind, so it is even more commendable."
"After the King of Qi, there is Nan'an Hou, and my Fujian people are still blessed."
"Now there is a great chaos in the world, but my Fujian Road is not only no major incident, but also suppressed the giant thieves who have been in trouble for many years, which is really a blessing for Fujian people such as us."
"Not really...... someone wondered: "Chen Yutai is behind Yan Qi, Liu Dan, Pu Xingfeng, when the time comes, the giant thieves will come, but the scale of more than 100,000 people, Zhangzhou has been broken, and Fuzhou may not be safe, if it really provokes the big thief, it will be a big trouble." ”
"What a faint talk." This kind of argument is obviously out of place in this scene, and someone said angrily: "People go to your house to burn and loot, you say that there are more powerful people behind him, and someone kills this robber, and you say that he attracts more powerful people, which is the truth?" Even if there are no Pu Xingfeng, how can Chen Yutai harm my Fujian Road less? ”
"What a stupid thing!" Someone raised his arms and waved his fist and said angrily: "Whoever said that, I will beat him." ”
The speaker was startled and immediately walked away.
Wei Yi also shook his head gently, there is no shortage of pouring cold water at any time, and there is no shortage of faint words, such people don't have to pay attention to it, right is right, wrong is wrong, justice is at ease in the hearts of the people most of the time, sometimes wrong public opinion and practices seem to have the upper hand, but in fact, most people are in a state of silence.
At such a time, when righteousness is rising, not only will it not be approved of saying stupid things that are out of place, but it is purely deserved to be beaten.
When Wei Yi stepped on a small boat, there were already people in the city setting off firecrackers, and many people were lighting incense and candles on the docks and riverside, burning paper money, and praying to their relatives who died at the hands of pirates, their great revenge had been avenged, and they could reincarnate as human beings with peace of mind.
The corners of Wei Yi's eyes were a little moist, he felt an unparalleled pleasure, and he was also eager to see Xu Zixian quickly, he wanted to know how his friend accomplished such a feat, he thought that he could listen to Xu Zixian personally say the details of this important event as soon as possible, and then praise his friend fiercely, and then he had to raise a glass with Xu Zixian to celebrate for Xu Zixian, after this incident, Xu Zixian's position on Fujian Road is already unbreakable, and with the help of many allies, it is not difficult to grasp greater power in a short time.
Wei Yi is about to be appointed as an official, originally his achievements were much greater than Xu Zixian, after the real power of the official gentry, the family is quite rich, Xu Zixian also borrowed money from him, he still remembers the appearance of Xu Zixian when he spoke first, a little embarrassed and embarrassed.
It's only been less than a year, but now Xu Zixian has already left Wei Yi and Xu Xingwei far behind, and the status of the three has changed very significantly, before Xu Xingwei's family has warned him to follow Xu Zixian closely, the Wei family is a family of official gentry, and the speech will not be so obvious and shallow, but the attitude is also similar, just a little reserved.
Wei Yi estimated that after this incident, I am afraid that when the elders in the family mention Xu Zixian, they will not call him by his name, but will be commensurate with his title.
Although Xu Zixian is not yet married, he is only a young man in his early twenties, not to mention that he has full power in many big families, I am afraid that he does not even have the power to speak out, but he is such a descendant, who has mastered all the power of Nan'an Hou Mansion, and continues to defeat strong enemies, starting from dozens of people fighting against two hundred Qishan bandits, to defeating the Pu family forces, killing Dashen in Beijing, returning to Fujian for more than two months, and killing evil for more than ten years, and rampant lawlessness for more than ten years, Chen Yutai, who owes a lot of blood debts, has finally been awarded the first and ambushed, such a great cause, It's hard to imagine, and there is also an idea that heroes should come out from time to time.
There will definitely be many people who hold the same view as Wei Yi, and Xu Zixian's status on Fujian Road will inevitably rise in the future......
With all kinds of optimistic views, Wei Yi stepped on a small sentinel boat, and the paddle men rowed the boat pulp and struggled to go in the direction of Qizhou Port.
Of course, Wei Yi doesn't talk about money, and favor and politics are the most desired returns for Wei Yi or the Wei family.
