"Those nerds like the short articles in the newspaper, and the little three sons' favorite is "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". "The most popular among them in the market is "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and Hu Tong is no exception, every time I read the newspaper, I feel itchy in my heart and can't buy the next issue immediately.

"The Three Kingdoms is a pleasure to read, but my favorite is "Border City". ”

Hu Tong opened the newspaper and skimmed the whole newspaper a little, this newspaper is typeset horizontally, and when read horizontally, especially in this kind of vernacular text, it is comfortable in one word, and the whole newspaper is somewhat wonderful, and sometimes it can be known at a glance.

"In front of the law?" Hu Tong's gaze paused slightly on "In front of the law", or skipped to look at other sections, and soon he turned to "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and read it. Except for the first issue, every issue of the newspaper Hu Tong first reads "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", then "Border City", and after reading "Border City", he takes a break for half a cup of tea, and then reads "Rereading History"...... These three things he was most interested in reading before reading the others. Eating snacks and drinking tea, Hu Tong read the three sections he was most interested in very comfortably, feeling a little unfinished.

""Border City" is getting more and more sad, but this is the true meaning of life!"

"Qin Gongzi wrote about the Shang Yang Method, but he hasn't finished writing it until now, and it is really not easy to change the law. Hu Tong sighed with emotion, and was very puzzled in his heart, Qin Xianao wrote about the Shang Yang Reform, why is the name 'Thousands of years of misreading the Shang Jun book, forcing Qin to change the law and someone else'? Could it be that the Shang Yang Reform written in the orthodox history book is different from what Qin Gongzi said? For this Hu Tong also asked his brother-in-law Zhang Shiren, who was an official in the court, Zhang Shiren just smiled and said, "Qin Xianao's idea is different, if he said the same as everyone else, there is no need to make this newspaper and write this history." ’。

After eating a piece of snack, Hu Tong searched the newspaper. Soon fell on the article "In front of the law".

"The third son said that the article 'The Gate of Law' is very interesting, and I don't know how to make an interesting law. Hu Tonglian looked at it. "There is a guard standing in front of the gate of the law...... This is about a countryman who came to the "door of the law" and asked to see the law, and the door of the law was open, but the guard did not allow him to enter, and the countryman waited for the guard's permission in order to enter the door. It wasn't until after death that the guard told him that this door was for you.

The story is desolate and deformed, logically speaking, it is impossible for the guards to say those words, and it is impossible for the countrymen to wait all the time, especially the words that the guards said at the moment when the countrymen were dying, especially the desolation, but it is this desolation that makes people think involuntarily.

Unconsciously, a mist surged in Hu Tong's eyes. In a trance, a picture from more than ten years ago came to his mind.

In a small, dark and dilapidated house.

"Son, I have no choice but to sell your sister for now. The man in his fifties took the hand of a twelve-year-old boy and said.

"Dad, is there really no way?" the boy cried, "Didn't you say that Lord Yu is the Great Master of the Blue Sky?"

"Kids. I don't know why, every time I go. Lord Yu is busy with business, and the little official even asked me to beat the drum to stop it, your father and I are incompetent. The old man felt sorry for himself.

......

"The entrance of the yamen is open to the south, and there is no reason to come in without money. Hu Tong put down the newspaper and walked to the window, the old man was his father, who looked to be in his fifties. In fact, he was only thirty-seven, just in the prime of life, the Hu family was not a rich family, and the weather was not good that year, and he suffered from drought. However, the only acre of land in the family was forcibly taken away by the bullies in the village, which forced his Hu family to death.

So his father wanted to find a magistrate to be the master, but one day, two days, three days...... The family is close to being out of cooking, and his father has not stepped into the real door of the official office, so he sold his sister to others as a concubine in desperation, that is, Zhang Shiren, who is now in his seventies, his sister is very favored, so he Hu Tong is gradually getting better, Hu Tong himself is clever, coupled with Zhang Shiren's 'care', he entered the shopping mall, and gradually became prosperous, and now he has an industry in Bianliang City.

"Now my life is better, but my father fell ill in bed not long after that conversation, and after eating herbs for half a month, he never woke up one morning, and my mother died early, and my father also went, leaving only me, my sister who was a concubine......" Hu Tong's heart seemed to be blocked, he hated the person who forcibly seized his Hu family's property, but he hated the little official who let his father wander outside the door again and again, but after so many years of ups and downs, Hu Tong has long understood that the most hateful thing is this Great Song Dynasty, but this hatred can only be buried in the bottom of his heart, and he doesn't even dare to show it when no one is around.

"What a "In Front of the Law"!" Hu Tong's eyes flashed, "This person really dares to write, although he doesn't write a word that attacks this real society, and even the story is extremely ridiculous, but the more ridiculous it is, the more people can't help but figure it out." Who can't see the irony of this article? But that Qin Xian was even more daring, and he actually dared to post it. Hu Tong walked to the front of the newspaper and his eyes fell on the five words 'Author: Qin Xianhao'.

"Qin Xianhao?" Hu Tong remembered the name in his heart.

......

The article "In Front of the Law" was published in the newspaper, because the newspaper not only has all kinds of readers to buy, but also a large number of low-level readers, but "In front of the Law" uses a ridiculous and distorted story to hit the society, especially the pain points of the people at the bottom who have no way to seek the law, and the effect, especially among the bottom readers, is extremely huge.

......

Old Hu Tou Buzhuang, Hu Tong is still immersed in the article "In Front of the Law".

"Master, master!" A hurried cry sounded, and Sanzifeng rushed in, his face flushed, "Happy event, big happy event, a man in white came to our store, claiming to be Qin Xianao, who runs a newspaper, and said that he wanted to see you." ”

"Qin Xianao?"

"The wine-colored son Qin Xian who runs this newspaper?"

Hu Tong took two steps forward and rushed to the third son: "Really?" he rushed out of the room before he could finish his sentence.

"Is it really Qin Xian's proud son arrived?" Hu Tong's loud voice sounded, and he strode to the shop in the front hall, there were five or six people in the shop, and Hu Tong locked on to a white-clothed boy shaking a folding fan at a glance.

"Your Excellency is Hu Tong?" Qin Chao said lightly.

"Don't dare, it's right here, Gongzi Qin is here, and I invite you to have tea behind. Hu Tonglian stepped forward in a few big steps. Chong Qin Chao bowed and gave a big salute, "Qin Gongzi is here, the walls of the shop are shining, please, please!" Qin Chao nodded: "This prince is busy, so I won't eat tea." I came to inform you of one thing this time, my son is very optimistic about you, and I want you to act as an agent for the newspaper business in Bianliang City, and give you three days to think about it, if you want, go to Luoyang in three days......" A piece of paper flew out of Qin Chao's hand, "You talk to Shen He of Shen Ji Bookstore about technology and cooperation." ”

"Let me act as an agent for the newspaper?" Hu Tong's heart pounded.

Over the years, he has been doing business in Bianliang, with Zhang Shiren as his backer, and his business has become more and more prosperous. I have accumulated a lot of money, and my life has become comfortable, but I have been a little quiet recently, but I can't make up my mind for a while.

"This newspaper is a big guy!" Hutong has been in the shopping mall for decades, and now his vision is extremely keen, and he naturally realizes the significance of the newspaper, which is far from making money.

"Do you understand?" asked Qin Chao.

Hu Tong took a deep breath and gave a big gift again before saying, "Gongzi Qin." Are you saying that you are going to run a newspaper here in Bianliang, and I will be in charge of sales?"

"Exactly. Don't be in a hurry to agree, I'll give you three days to think about it. ”

"Qin Gongzi, don't think about it, I'm willing!" Hu Tong's voice was categorical. "Oh?" Qin Chao's eyes showed a hint of surprise, "In that case, I'll talk to you." An hour later, the Qin Dynasty left Bianliang City.

The next day.

In the forest behind Hongmei Academy. Tao Shuliang read the book in his hand as usual, and a tall man not far away was punching.

"Bell!" "Bell!" "Bell!" "Bell!"

The bell rang five times, and Tao Shuliang closed the book. "Senior Brother Meng, let's go! This issue of the newspaper should also come out. "It's coming!" Tao Shuliang and Meng Gao rushed to the 'canteen' in the south of Hongmei Academy, where many students were already eating. The two took their share of the meal. The eyes swept the entire cafeteria, and then fell on one person.

"Senior Brother Cui. Tao Shuliang came to a seat not far from the old man and sat down, "This issue of the newspaper, can Senior Brother Cui lend me a look?" Tao Shuliang said with a grin.

The old man was dressed richly, and he glanced at Tao Shuliang with a smile: "Senior Brother Tao, why are you still here with Senior Brother Meng today, and you don't see Senior Brother Qin?" he picked up a stack of square newspapers from the side and handed it to Tao Shuliang, "This newspaper has just arrived for a long time, and I have only finished reading it." ”

"Senior Brother Qin is probably busy. Uncle Tao smiled, and was depressed in his heart, finally a junior brother came to let him lead the way, but Qin Chao just followed him around the academy, and left after knowing a group of senior brothers, today is the fourth day, and he has not arrived for four consecutive days, Tao Shuliang is wondering in his heart, is this Senior Brother Qin not ready to come to Hongmei Academy.

"Senior Brother Cui, what's so special about today's newspaper?" Tao Shuliang took the newspaper and asked while spreading it out.

"Qin Xianao's articles, whether it is serialized "Border City", "Three Kingdoms" or "Rereading History", are as high as ever, but except for these three, the rest of the columns are new articles by newcomers. Cui Xiang said, suddenly thought of an article, and said, "There is an article called "In Front of the Law" which is quite weird, and this article is rarely commented on by the editor-in-chief. ”

"In front of the law?" Uncle Tao was stunned for a moment, and even turned his ear to Cui Xiang, "What did Senior Brother Cui just say?"

"I said that Qin Xianao's article is as high as ever......"

"It's not this one, it's the last one. Tao Shuliang said.

At this time, a scholar separated by three tables suddenly shouted: "Isn't this the article written by Senior Brother Qin last time?" Tao Shuliang, come here, you can take a look, this newspaper is the article of Senior Brother Qin Xianhao. ”

"Senior Brother Wan, but 'The Gate of Law'?" someone asked. Wan Mingxing said: "That's right, it's "In Front of the Law", and it is also written that the author is Qin Xianhao, who should be the senior brother Qin who came to our academy four days ago." ”

"Senior Brother Qin's "In Front of the Law", I really heard it right?" Tao Shuliang was a little confused. (To be continued......)
