Chapter 233 Where are the people (1)

The fifth day of the Lunar New Year.

Although it is still in the first lunar month, for ordinary people, this year has come to an end.

The children at home may still be immersed in the imagination of having something good to eat, while the adults have taken off their new clothes and rolled up their sleeves to make money.

So you can see this scene in the capital, where rich idle people still carry their hands behind their backs and buy things, eat, drink and have fun everywhere.

Those who have no money are sweating all their brains and running around.

"Master Liu, are you the third one today?"

In the big teahouse, as soon as the rich businessman Liu Ye sat down, the young man who was running the hall smiled attentively, "I haven't seen you these days during the Chinese New Year. Our shopkeeper is watching at the door every day!"

"Ha! Good boy, just by opening your mouth, you should be the shopkeeper!" Liu Ye was wearing a new leather robe, and sat on the chair with his legs crossed, and said, "Make something... Yes, Pu'er in Yunnan, said that the tea is to clear the stomach. Liu Ye, I ate too oily during the Chinese New Year, so look at melon seeds and fresh fruits!"

"Okay, wait!" The guy pulled Changyin away.

Sixth Master looked around and suddenly felt lonely.

Because there are not many people in the teahouse!

I have never seen anyone I know every day!

"Sixth Master! The first edition of the New Year is in Yingtian Times!"

The boy selling newspaper looked at the old guest from a distance, rushed over with the newspaper, and did not forget to greet the New Year, "Sixth Master, I wish you a New Year! Happy New Year!"

"Okay!" Master Liu was happy and slapped the Yongchang Tongbao bronze zi on the table.

Then he skillfully took the newspaper and opened it with a frown.

The huge front page headlines caught my eye and I stood up.

"His Majesty the Emperor, I wish all the best in the New Year of the Ming people."

This is... The Emperor greets the people with New Year's greetings?

It has been the first place to create the world through ancient times!

Sixth Master widened his eyes and continued to look down, and saw the newspaper, "Since I ascended the throne, I have inherited the great merits of my ancestors and the blessings of the emperor. And the military and civilians have united themselves, which has made our Ming Dynasty grand and far surpassed the Han and Tang dynasties.

"But this is not my own contribution, but because the people of the world are working hard. Therefore, on this New Year's Day, I hope that as soon as the New Year begins, all the people of the Ming Dynasty will go well."

"The country has a bumper harvest, peace in the world, peace in the people, and prosperity in the border dust forever..."

This is indeed the first time that the emperor wishes the people a happy new year, and through newspapers.

But the meaning of the national and national word is the first opportunity to create the world.

Sixth Master didn't understand what the people mean, but he vaguely felt something was wrong... because according to reason, they were all subjects...

But this did not prevent him from trembling all over with excitement.

The next second he suddenly shouted to the outside, "The newspaper seller, I'm done with it!"

This is the first time that the emperor wishes the people a happy new year in the Ming Dynasty. Although the precious things in the world are all kinds of things.

Sixth Master made up his mind and bought them all.

I bought it home and paid for it, and I can leave it to my grandparents and grandchildren to pass on their families in the future!

"Okay..."

The boy selling newspapers grinned and was about to laugh, but the next second was surrounded by guests who rushed out of other teahouses, restaurants and even brothels.

In an instant, the full amount of newspapers were sold out.

Immediately afterwards, the streets were filled with exclamations and noise.

"The emperor wishes us a happy new year and wishes us ordinary people all the best?"

~~

Bang!

Sixth Master slapped the table and said to the people around him, "What is a prosperous era? This is a prosperous era!"

The news of the emperor paying New Year's greetings to the people in the newspaper spread wildly. Soon after, the teahouses and restaurants in the streets and alleys were filled with people, and they discussed happily.

Sixth Master is no longer lonely because all the familiar people have come back and are all around him to prepare his big talk.

"From ancient times, which dynasty has the emperor of our Ming Dynasty loved the people as much as his son?" As he said that, the Sixth Master wiped his hands on his collar, carefully opened the newspaper in his arms, and recited, "I wish my Ming people all the best and good health for the whole family...tsk tsk!"

As he said that, he sighed, "Our generation is really a good time to be born!"

Everyone around them nodded in agreement, with a sigh.

"Hey, did you hear that Yingtian Mansion caught a lot of people a few days ago?" Suddenly someone said, "You said that it was the New Year, and they didn't stop..."

"You are wrong!" Master Liu interrupted the other party directly, "Didn't you read the newspaper? It's written on the second page!"

As he said that, he carefully opened the newspaper again and said to everyone, "Look, it's said. In order to let all the people have a peaceful and peaceful Spring Festival, the capital launched an operation to eliminate bandits and evil!"

"For a long time, several gangs of criminals have been entrenched in the southern city of the capital, extortion and extortion, gambling and prostitution, stealing and trafficking...."

"There are also monks from Lingyin Temple who privately sell boys in the name of seeking a child. After investigation, there were 127 abducted boys, and now they find out who is selling them..."

"The Jinyiwei and the Yingtianfu Military Office are supervising their full efforts. The emperor issued an order to ensure that the separation of the flesh and blood are necessary for the members of the group..."

After thinking about this, Master Liu's eyes were straightened, "Don't those smashed gangsters who were suffering from the mother's plague should be arrested? Shouldn't those human traffickers be killed? It's a good thing for the yamen to punish these people!"

"Well... it's not too early or late..."

Someone smiled teasingly and said, "I heard some different news. It was because the emperor brought the prince out in confinement and encountered a human trafficker being arrested. The Jinyiwei followed the clues and found out the major case in Lingyin Temple."

"Haha!" the man continued to say with a smile, "What's the matter with the Bingma Si? Besides, the gangsters in Nancheng were all captured by the Jinyiwei, and the Bingma Si arrested them..."

"A nest of snakes and rats!" someone spoke loudly from the side, "It's like Jin Lao Er in Nancheng, who puts money, loan sharks and gambles, digs out graves and kicks widows' doors, and does all the bad things!"

"Hey, it's just that one person who is up to ninety-nine times and cannot leave. All knows that he is a beast and scum, but the Bingma Si just doesn't know."

"Look at it. Today, except for the second and fourth brothers, tomorrow, I will still walk across the street!"

Sixth Master was a little angry when everyone said one by one, and said loudly, "Everyone, there is no need to be so extreme!"

As he said, he said, "There are no such things in all dynasties? Some people are born to be evil people, not that they don't repay him, but the time has not come..."

"Strange, Master Liu, you didn't speak like this before!" Someone teased, "You scolded you more happily than anyone else!"

Sixth Master blushed, "Just discuss the matter!" and said, "You have to scold bad places, but you have to praise good places! It's like these more than abducted children can return to their biological parents, and the whole family will be reunited and happy in the world..."

"What is a prosperous era when you are talking about? Most people are peaceful and prosperous era, and some flaws are also a blessing."

The shopkeeper was behind the counter, squirting abacus beads.

Half of his ear stood up and listened to the sixth master and the others shouting and scolding over there.

Suddenly, the movements on his hands stopped.

Outside the teahouse, an old hunchbacked man stood at the door with a child in a torn clothes. The old man bowed to the shopkeeper, while the child looked at the food on the guests' table in the teahouse.

"Hey!" The guy ran over and said, "Go on the same time!"

"Wait a minute!" The shopkeeper called the young man who drove the people, looked at the old man, and after holding it in for a long time, he just sighed.

The world is peaceful, right!

Prosperous times, right!

But there are also people who can’t eat in the prosperous times!

"Take them to the kitchen behind!" The shopkeeper waved his hand and told the young man, "Give two bowls of rice!"

"Okay!" The guy didn't understand why the shopkeeper who has always been stingy will be kind.

"For the New Year, I'll cook another bowl of dumplings!"

As soon as the shopkeeper finished speaking, Master Liu shouted not far away, "Help me run, let's have eight boxes of Lan Xinzhai's snacks... This snack in your house is so unpalatable, and the peach crisps don't fall apart!"
