C807 Gossip invincible (1/2)

Through the Qing San Ye's good offices, there was only one issue of the newspaper, which made all the people who tried to watch the show a little disappointed. It was the time of the cat winter, so the streets were filled with idle people, it was very satisfying to see the war of words between the imperial government and Xiao Letian.

Scolding between big figures was nothing short of a huge sum. The amount of silver that could be paid for a newspaper and printed in one issue was simply unimaginable. However, in front of the emperor and general, it was just a small amount of money.

Xiao Letian liked to throw silver taels into the water to listen, but it was a pity that this year's commotion was not too satisfying, the people's newspaper only released one issue, and it actually stopped? Could it be that the imperial government had some sort of counter move against Xiao Letian?

Rumors started flying all over the Beijing, the banner people were frantically researching and gathering information. It was not because they were all spies, but 90% of the people here were bored and had nothing to do after eating their fill.

Furthermore, they thought that if other people knew about this information earlier than them, then they would lose face. This meant that they did not have enough connections in the Beijing.

Actually, this is also a kind of social psychology. Chinese people love to gossip, especially political gossip.

In the era when the idea of official standard rules over people's hearts, social resources are concentrated in the hands of officials, and power is concentrated in their hands. As a natural person, society will naturally move towards power.

This was human nature, even animal instinct. Even the wolves knew how to get on good terms with the strongest head wolf. On one hand, they could get some leftovers, and on the other hand, they could feel safe.

The human and animal natures were interlinked, one part of the reason why the standard-bearers and the Chinese people of the Beijing loved to spread information about politics was because they wanted to find out more about the benefits from the information.

For example, if you could establish a relationship with the steward of Prince Gong's Mansion, you could contract all the slops in the mansion, and at that time, even the pigs raised by your family would be fatter than others. For example, if you could establish a relationship with the steward of Prince Gong's Mansion after cleaning the kitchen, you could even contract all the slops in the mansion.

Gossip can provide benefits, but it can also give people a sense of security.

In the teahouse restaurant, the person who knew the most information would be the person with the most connections. People who knew it already knew about it, and people might not know about it.

When outsiders try to bully you, they will ponder about it. This guy knows so many secrets of the imperial court, it means that this guy has someone backing him! If I bully him, maybe he will take revenge on me. Forget it, I better live peacefully with him.

You see, a sense of security comes!

In fact, in Xiao Letian's previous life, there were many situations like this. In some counties, and in some third-tier cities, we could always meet some people who were very popular. Their friends were all over the place and were the leaders of various departments.

These people kept their mouths open and shut. It meant that he had a thorough analysis of the government's economic layout in the second half of the year.

Actually, the words of this kind of people were always half true and half false. However, for him to live this way of life, not to mention whether he could really gain benefits from officials, it was also true that he could gain a subtle sense of security.
