Northern Song Dynasty Justice

Chapter 281

Fan Chunren's two articles immediately pushed the public opinion to a climax, and the public opinion against the license plate was really overwhelming, sweeping the entire Tokyo.

From top to bottom, no one really supports this license plate.

Faced with such a great gift from Zhang Fei, the ministers in the court would naturally not be polite, and began to put pressure on the emperor and Cao Ping on the basis of public grievances.

Public grievances are already boiling, can you still turn a deaf ear?

However, the biggest beneficiaries are genuine bookstores.

No matter what the content is, no matter who the scolding is, the direction of public opinion today is completely controlled by Celebrity News.

Even those who opposed Zhang Fei, they also respected the contents of the celebrity newspaper.

This phenomenon is really weird.

At this time, the sky is not yet bright.

I saw dozens of people standing in front of the genuine bookstore, all of them hesitated and glanced at the gate from time to time.

"Why haven't you come out yet?"

"It's not that it's the fourth watch, it's almost the fifth watch now, if you drag it on, it will be too late."

"Ouch! This really makes me anxious."

It turns out that the major restaurants have received the news that today the genuine bookstore will launch a new newspaper, the content of which is about the license plate.

Now that this matter has become so noisy, as long as it is about the content of the license plate, it must be very concerned.

The proprietors of the major restaurants all gave death orders to their shopkeepers, no matter what, they must get this issue of the newspaper.

Because without this issue of the newspaper, there must be no visitors.

As a result, this issue of the newspaper directly rose to [-] articles a copy.

Almost fifty times the profit.

But for those restaurants, it doesn't matter, this newspaper made everyone's meal time several times longer, and the number of customers continued to increase.

Because everyone wants to discuss, this time will naturally be longer, and consumption will naturally increase accordingly.

It's such a bargain.

creak.

The door of the genuine bookstore opened, and the people in front of the door squeezed through immediately.

"I came first."

"I grabbed the position first."

"Hey! How dare you fight with Pan Lou?"

"I'm going to order this newspaper. It won't work if anyone comes."

"Don't squeeze! Don't squeeze! Don't squeeze, as long as you deposit money in the small shop, you will definitely be able to get newspapers, and there will be no shortage of newspapers."

Hou Donglai raised his hands high and yelled a few words. Seeing that everyone was still unwilling to give in, he said again: "It's almost dawn today. If you keep crowding like this, it will delay the time. Don't blame me."

When everyone looked at the sky, it would be dawn soon, and they had to deliver the newspapers to the store before opening the door. Breakfast is the best time to read newspapers, but if you read them at night, you have to wait until tomorrow to argue. Make people sleep.

Everyone quickly lined up.

"Alum Building."

"I'm here!"

"This is from your shop."

I saw two big baskets of newspapers thrown out.

The guys from the Baifan building hurried to the store, carrying baskets and getting into the carriage.

Because those customers like to submit reports, Baifanlou had to prepare hundreds more copies for emergencies.

When the newspaper was delivered to the store, Fan Zheng wanted to get a copy first and check it out. If it contained some prohibited content, he couldn't send it out lightly.

"Just now, I heard that a new issue of the newspaper is out."

I saw Fan Yong coming over.

Fan Zheng nodded, and hurriedly handed over the newspaper, "This is the latest newsletter released by the genuine bookstore."

"News?"

Fan Yong quickly took over.

Fan Zhengdao: "This is issued in the name of the inspection department in the left compartment. It explains the process of license plate processing, and after seven days, it will start to apply for license plates in the west of the outer city. And after one month, the patrol police will strictly investigate license plate."

Fan Yong was shocked when he heard this, "Are they crazy? With the current public opinion, who would apply for this license plate?"

Fan Zheng frowned, "This kid doesn't know either. Recently, Ya Nei and Xiao Ma have disappeared, and I can't ask them for information, but the above paragraph is worthy of our advice."

"Which paragraph?"

"The fourth largest segment."

Fan Yong's gaze shifted, and he exclaimed, "Limited cards?"

Fan Zhengdao: "Daddy, we can't bet that Zhang San won't succeed, so we don't apply for a license. If we don't do it this time, if the license plate is really restricted, then our cars and horses can't go on the street casually. Let's take What are you going to deliver!"

Fan Yong asked in disbelief: "Does he have such power?"

Fan Zheng shook his head and said, "My child doesn't know either!"

As soon as the news comes out, this morning is destined to be restless.

The roof of the alum building was about to be knocked down.

The public opinion is already like this, and the inspection department actually ignores public opinion, and will start to process the license plate on the [-]th, and the key procedures are so well written, such as fines.

What is the [-]-point system, what is the forbidden road, what is the deduction of points and fines.

He also said that the patrol police only have the power to issue fines, and they have to go to the military patrol shop in front of the Department of Records to pay the fines.

It turns out that the next door to the Legal Aid Department is where fines are paid.

The meaning is very simple, either pay the money or fight the lawsuit.

You choose.

Such a perfect physique is obviously not fake.

What's even worse is that the above also stated that due to the large population in Bianjing, license plates may be restricted in the future to limit the number of vehicles and horses in the capital to a certain number.

All of these things are provoking their sensitive nerves.

Who gave them the power, why did they do it.

Needless to say, inside the court.

If the emperor didn't show up, they could only go to the political affairs hall to make trouble.

Even Fu Bi and Zeng Gongliang, who were recuperating at home, came out.

political affairs hall.

"No wonder that when we went that day, the shop next door was also being decorated. It turned out that it was the accounting office of the inspection department."

Sima Guang suddenly realized.

Mr. Lu nodded thoughtfully: "Zhang San has done a really good job. He arranged the place for paying the fine next to the Legal Aid Department, which is convenient for everyone to sue."

Wang Anshi said: "I have to say, his design is quite ingenious. The separation of fines and fines is linked together, and it is also in line with the ancestral law of my Song Dynasty."

Wen Yanbo sighed: "But the problem is that from top to bottom, no one is in favor of this matter. There are already public grievances boiling outside. Without quelling public grievances, he directly implemented the license plate law and set so many rules. According to the rules, this may cause trouble!"

Zhao Yan also said: "I also think that the inspector's move is ill-considered. The restriction mentioned above is that the matter is not big enough? No matter how ingenious his design is, it is certain to do so. No way."

Originally, the license plate is very annoying, and if you come with a restriction, they will not agree. If you succeed, maybe I will not even get a license plate in the future.

Fu Bi stroked his beard and said, "What do you mean, let's go up to the officials and order to ban this matter?"

Wen Yanbo nodded and said: "I think it should be so, this is simply nonsense."

But Wang Anshi said: "I don't think there should be a rush at this moment. If no one is going to apply for the license, then let's talk about it. What we are hearing now may not be what everyone thinks."

Wen Yanbo glanced at him, "Really?"

But Zeng Gongliang also nodded and said: "Wang Jiefu's words are justified, and there must be evidence for everything. Now this law has not been implemented. There is no basis for this, so we ordered it to be banned. How can we convince the officials?"

Sima Guang hesitated for a long time, then said: "I also think that after looking at it, everyone knows Zhang San's character quite well, and he won't be aimless."

In his heart, he hoped that Zhang Fei would succeed, which would be of great help to his judicial reform.

Wang Anshi thought so too.

The final decision of this meeting is to wait and see.

But the content of the meeting was soon known to everyone, and everyone knew that the Zhengshitang did not support the inspection department, and we just didn't do it when the time came.

Original bookstore.

"Old Hou, you are in good health!"

Zhang Fei looked at the energetic Hou Donglai, "You are still so energetic after such a high-intensity job."

Hou Donglai hehe said: "It's making money, how can you be tired! Sanlang, you don't know, now the restaurants in Xiangfu County and Kaifeng County have also sent people to order our Celebrity Newspaper and Newspaper. There are thousands of copies when it goes out, and the profit is real."

Speaking of the latter, he laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth.

This is too profitable.

He loves it so much.

Zhang Fei pointed at him, and said in distaste: "Oh! My mouth is drooling, pay attention to my image."

There was a squeak.

Hou Donglai wiped his mouth, suddenly remembered something, and said: "By the way, there is something I forgot to tell you. Recently, many big families want to order newspapers directly from us. But Baifanlou and Panlou hinted to us, If we gave these big families a single order, they wouldn't order newspapers from us at such a high price."

Old people like Fu Bi, how can they go to restaurants every day, but the problem is that newspapers are only distributed in restaurants now, and they hope to be able to order them individually, but restaurants are definitely not willing. They also know that the price of this newspaper is very expensive, but the reason why they If you are willing to pay this money, it means that everything is monopolized by restaurants.

Zhang Fei thought for a while, and said, "Currently our output is very limited, so we still only distribute newspapers to restaurants, but you also tell those restaurants that we fully allow them to deliver newspapers to their old customers' homes."

Hou Donglai nodded and said, "I see."

At this moment, Hong Zhong walked in, "Sanlang, the new issue of the newsletter has been formatted. This is the template. If there is no problem, we will start printing."

After speaking, he handed the newspaper in his hand to Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei took it, opened it, looked at it, and said to Hou Donglai: "For this issue, the price is still [-] yuan, but if the restaurant is not satisfied, the minimum price can be reduced to [-] yuan."

Hou Donglai nodded and said, "I see."

Just at this time, Li Si came into the room and said, "Third Brother, Deputy Marshal Bu is here, and he seems to be in a bad mood."

Zhang Fei just smiled slightly, "Please come in."

Hou Donglai also took Hong Zhong out immediately.

As soon as they left, Cao Ping came in angrily, "Zhang San, what trick are you playing?"

He was scolded miserably today, the key point is that he didn't know beforehand, he didn't expect that Zhang Fei would execute it so quickly, and Cao Dongdong and Ma Xiaoyi had been in charge of training the patrols, so they didn't know anything about it.

Cao Ping couldn't sit still this time.

Zhang Fei pretended to be surprised and said, "How did the deputy commander say that?"

Cao commented: "This public grievance has not yet subsided. If anyone asks you to issue a license plate, no one will come to collect it. How do you ask me to step down? You are simply nonsense."

Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Please rest assured, deputy commander, everyone will actively come to get the license plate."

"It's just nonsense."

Cao commented: "Your two issues of Celebrity News were published, and almost everyone scolded you. They have already discussed it, and no one will talk to you."

Anyway, those ministers must have no one to support Zhang Fei.

Wang Anshi and Sima Guang wanted to support Zhang Fei, but... But do they have a carriage?
The carriages they rode were all from the unit.

Zhang Fei said with a smile: "Please rest assured, deputy commander, someone will definitely come. If no one comes, I will bear all the responsibilities alone."

Cao Ping was stunned for a moment, wondering, "Have you never been out before? It's impossible for someone to come."

Zhang Fei said: "Someone will definitely come."

".!"

Cao Ping was depressed, and nodded: "Okay! Alright! I won't argue with you now, and if no one comes, don't blame me for not being sympathetic."

The implication is that I will definitely stab you in the back when the time comes.

Only two days later, the second issue of news was published.

As Zhang Fei expected, when everyone read the contents of the newspaper, they directly overwhelmed the price by 35 cents.

Where is the news of this shit, it is clearly advertised to promote yourself.

It turned out that the above content indicated that the charitable organization invested by Cao Dongdong, Ma Xiaoyi, and Zhang Fei would set up a carriage and horse transportation workshop and recruit skilled grooms and carriages.

There are roughly two ways, one is direct employment, and the other is cooperation.

You can join the workshop with your own carriage, and everyone will share the profit [-]-[-], but the workshop will be responsible for paying all taxes, cattle and horse feed, and you only need to bear the risk of transportation.

You don't have to worry about the rest.

But there is one condition, that is, there must be a license plate. As long as there is a license plate, the subsequent license plate fee will also be borne by the workshop.

Just such a piece of news.

It was a big disappointment.

That's it?

They thought that Zhang Fei was holding back some big moves, but ended up spending money and playing by themselves.

According to the content above, you just want to get some chariots and horses by yourself, and go to play cards by yourself, then you can play by yourself, and we won't talk to you anyway.

That's all, nothing more.

No new newspapers were published.

Opposition remains.

And shouted louder than before.

In the blink of an eye, three days have passed, and today is the first day of licensing.

The location is a school yard in the west of the city.

Cao Ping came here early, but the scene in front of him made him dumbfounded.

I saw a vast number of horse-drawn carts, ox carts, and donkey carts parked here, waiting for their cards to be issued, but they couldn't see the end anyway.

Fortunately, it was arranged in the outer city, and the relatively empty school grounds. If it was arranged in the inner city, that is, the longest Bianhe Street, I am afraid that it would not be able to accommodate so many horse-drawn carts and ox carts.

Zhang Fei definitely didn't invite them here with money, how much it would cost, the key is, where can he find so many carriages in such a long time.

Didn't you say that everyone is against it?
how?
