Chapter 19: Rejoicing Too Soon?
"Don't be too happy! Who belongs to the Iwakai Printing House can only be known when Lord Facao makes a verdict. "In the last case, the He family failed, and that was because He Jiayuan was really at a loss. In the case of violating the secret contract, He Zhengkun was 100% sure of victory.
"Lord Hocao, please continue to try the case of violating the secret contract. I have two pieces of evidence here, one is the secret transfer deed signed between me and the defendant, and the other is this morning's "Iwahaidi Daily". ”
He Zhengkun took out two pieces of evidence and faced Xie Facao directly.
A master beside Xie Facao came down to take the evidence in He Zhengkun's hand, and handed it over to Xie Facao after returning to his position. Xie Facao admitted that he had reviewed the two pieces of evidence and was full of confidence when he announced the start of the trial.
"Before the defendant makes a defense, I ask the master to retell the contents of this secret transfer deed in public. ”
"There is Liu Hong, a person from Yanhai, who intends to ...... Since the successful transaction, the ownership of this king-level secret book "Shenwei Fist" belongs to He Zhengkun, and the original owner of the secret book cannot resell this secret book to others for profit, nor can he spread it privately and teach others the content of this secret book. If there is a violation of the law, it will be dealt with according to the law. ”
After the master finished reading, Xie Facao picked up the "Yanhaidi Daily" and slapped it on the public case: "Anyone who has read today's "Yanhaidi Daily" knows that the content of this secret book is publicly published on it. Liu Hong, do you want the plaintiff to take out "Shenwei Fist" and compare it with the content you posted?"
"Thank you, Lord Facao, for your kindness, the comparison is completely unnecessary, and some of the content published in the "Iwakaidi Newspaper" is indeed exactly the same as the original. ”
Does Liu Hong's words mean that he admits that he has indeed violated the contract? You must know that the laws of Yanhai City punish those who violate the contract very severely. Liu Qiaoyun, who was still envious of Liu Hong and became a millionaire in a blink of an eye yesterday, was completely pinched at this time.
"If Liu Hong is convicted, it means that he will be compensated 12 million taels of gold. I think there shouldn't be a few families in Yanhai City with assets of more than 12 million taels! At least the Xia family can't come up with this number to help Liu Hong tide over the difficulties. ”
"Yes, the He family, the Fan family has money, most of it is fixed assets, and it is enough to take out so much cash. According to the law, if the plaintiff cannot be compensated with an equal fine, the shortfall is replaced by a sentence of one year for every 100,000 taels of gold. In this case, Liu Hong is likely to be sentenced to 120 years in prison. ”
"One hundred and twenty years! Will he come out alive?"
These discussions happened to talk about He Zhengkun's pride, he wanted to send this Liu Hong to prison with his own hands, and then let people slowly torture him.
"Hoso-sama, I'm going to start arguing myself now, so please listen carefully. As for whether it makes sense, I believe that the law is just, and the eyes of the masses are clear!"
Liu Hong's words made the corners of He Junmen's mouth flash a hint of mockery, he wanted to see how long this grasshopper could jump. The result of picking teeth is to be torn to shreds!
"First of all, my copy of "Shenwei Fist" has been handed over to He Zhengkun, so this is compounded, and the ownership of this king-level secret book "Shenwei Fist" belongs to He Zhengkun. ”
"Now I would like to ask you, what is the "Iwakaidi Daily"? It is a public newspaper, a publication that anyone can read, is there any such thing as privately disseminating and teaching others the contents of this secret book?"
You said that you can't spread it privately, is there a problem with me spreading it publicly? Liu Hong's rebuttal left Xie Facao speechless, and he wanted to open his mouth several times, but he couldn't find the right words. Annoyed, he angrily grabbed the "Yanhaidi Daily" and threw it on the court:
"The original owner of the secret book can't resell this secret book to others for a profit, your "Yanhai Di Daily" is sold for 5 taels of gold each, you dare to say that you didn't make a profit?"
The envoy looked at Xie Facao with sympathetic eyes. He believed that Liu Hong was fully sure of winning this case, Xie Facao did not win the favor of the He family, and stood on the opposite side of Xia Hulang and Lin Junmen, so it was impossible for Facao to sit in this position for too long.
"I would like to ask everyone here to note that the contents of the contract cannot be transferred to another person for profit. I would like to ask you, who is the boss of "Iwahaidi Daily"? Whose pocket does the money earned by "Iwahaidi Bao" go into? I am the boss of "Iwahaidi Bao", what is wrong with me transferring this secret book to myself for profit?"
Liu Hong picked out the words of this transfer contract, which made the situation a shocking reversal, how could the crowd at the door of the public court hold back. Who would have thought that you could make a profit by selling your own secrets? This is definitely a textbook classic case.
If it weren't for the fact that Fa Cao hadn't announced the results yet, I would have wanted to applaud Liu Hong right now. ”
"What bullshit! Look at what benefits he can get in the end by focusing on the He family!"
"Is this a coincidence or a trap arranged by Liu Hong in advance? If Liu Hong left such a loophole in the contract in advance, it would be terrible!"
Only He Zhengkun, who personally drafted the contract, knew that all this was God's arrangement, why would he sell Yanhai Printing House to him in a ghost?
In this situation, I can only watch Liu Hong publish the content of "Shenwei Fist" in the "Yanhaidi Daily" every day. Every morning when I wake up, I have to be slapped in the face, it's so uncomfortable!
.....
After Xie Facao reluctantly announced the results, there was warm applause in the court. Liu Hong waved his hand and suppressed everyone's applause and said:
"Iwakaidi Newspaper should be a public publication that promotes martial arts and promotes social development. I will continue to lead all employees to make greater contributions to the prosperity, stability and development of Iwami City. I believe that the lord of the castle will definitely guarantee the normal distribution of the "Iwakaidi Newspaper". ”
After Liu Hong finished speaking, he stared at the uncomfortable City Lord Du in front of everyone, and the City Lord had to say a few words: "That's natural." "Yanhaidi Daily" is the only official propaganda window designated by the City Lord's Mansion, and whoever dares to sabotage its issuance will not be able to get along with the City Lord's Mansion!"
Xia Hulang seized the opportunity and stood up: "The words of the lord of the castle are very encouraging. We in Yanhai City need a stable and harmonious environment, a group of backbones with ideals and achievements, and doers like the city lord to escort them. ”
Let us sail this big ship together to the other side of prosperity!"
Xia Hulang became emotional with his speech, the Xia family is a brand new family, and the Xia family needs a level playing field to achieve its own rise. Today, Liu Hong was able to defeat the powerful He family, which gave him hope.
His face was flushed, his fists were waving, and he stood like a sculpture in the courtroom. Xia Yuxian, who was closest to him, felt the thunder rolling in his ears, and a wave of heat rushed towards him, and his uncle's whole body flashed with golden light.
"Xia Hulang is about to break through! It is Wen Xiu who can be inspired to break through by a passage, and it is also Wen Xiu who can be moved by a passage to break through. We haven't seen a Wen Xiu in Yanhai City for hundreds of years, and I didn't expect to see a Wen Xiu break through the realm with our own eyes today. A member of the crowd who noticed Natsutoro's strange appearance shouted.
All the bigwigs who were about to leave also stopped and stared back at the court. In addition to Xia Hulang, there is also Liu Hong who is also standing straight in place and motionless, is he also a Wen Xiu, and he is about to break through?
