Chapter 302: Andre Tegreu

Ethan saw that the person who came was the patriarch of the Tegru family, Andre Tegru.

After all, the other party was the head of the family, so why did he suddenly become so humble?

Although Ethan knew him, he was not very familiar with him, and he did not help him.

This was not impolite, nor did he look down on him, but he could not help him.

In the eyes of Chinese people, when others kneel down, no matter what, they should help them at the first time. That is etiquette and self-restraint.

But here, if you help someone, it means that you agree to help him.

Looking at the other person's appearance, you know that something big has happened to him.

Ethan didn't even know what happened, so how could he dare to help him?

So, Ethan just told him to get up and talk, and then he found a place to sit down.

Who knew that Andre didn't get up at all, but knelt and crawled to follow Ethan.

Seeing Ethan sit down, he immediately crawled at Ethan's feet like a dog and kissed Ethan's shoes.

This kind of shoe kiss is the highest etiquette in this world.

Generally speaking, only slaves would use this kind of etiquette to treat their masters.

But Andre was a nobleman after all, and he actually used this kind of etiquette.

Ethan was annoyed by his humble appearance.

"Sir Andre, please don't be like this. If you have anything to say, stand up and say it first."

Andre did not stand up, but still crawled on the ground, crying and said: "Sir Ethan, please save me!"

"What happened?"

Andre wiped his tears and said in a crying voice: "Recently, our family received an order for printing books, and the content is a novel about love.

This was originally an order that could not be more ordinary.

However, there was a big problem.

The Holy Light Church found that there was a lot of slanderous content in it.

When they came to the door, I knew that something big had happened.

When I wanted to find the customer again, I found that the other party had disappeared.

At this time, I just I realized that I was framed.

Now the Holy Light Church wants me to hand over people and to seal up our family's business.

The most hateful thing is that they not only give me a time limit to hand over people, but also plan to arrest my whole family on the charge of assisting pagans.

Now our family may be imprisoned in the Holy Light Church at any time.

Sir Ethan, I am innocent, and I really have no intention of slandering the Holy Light Church.

Please save us!

Please save us anyway.

Now you are the only one who can save us in Maro City. "

Ethan wanted to laugh after hearing this: "You are a professional printing and publishing company. Tell me, you didn't censor the content?

You think I'm a three-year-old child, right?"

When Andre heard the tone of Ethan's words, he was so scared that his whole body trembled.

"It's not that we didn't censor, but that guy is so hateful. He deliberately hid the content to frame me, so he didn't censor it. "

As he said, Andre took out a book and handed it to Ethan.

"Sir Ethan, look, what's marked on it is what that guy has hidden."

Ethan took the book doubtfully and glanced at the mark on it, and his mouth twitched suddenly.

"This is just the simplest acrostic poem, even a child can see it, but you didn't check it.

Tell me, you are innocent?

You want to hurt me, right?"

Andre was sweating profusely: "How dare I hurt you!

It's also the damned person who reviewed it. It's so obvious that he didn't see it, but we were really framed.

We have been operating in Maro City for so many years, and we have never encountered such a thing, and we never thought it would happen.

So I was a little careless.

But things have happened, and there is no use regretting it.

Please, respected, great Sir Ethan, save me!"

After that, Andre began to kiss Ethan's shoes again.

Ethan held the book in his hand and looked at Sophia, who had been silent, expecting her opinion.

Sophia spread her hands, indicating that Ethan should make his own decision.

Ethan was immediately overwhelmed.

It was a serious crime to slander the Holy Light Church. There were many cases of genocide in history because of this.

And this matter, there were both witnesses and evidence, and it was impossible to overturn it.

But Ethan knew that he had to save him.

Because there was a deep meaning behind this matter.

The Holy Light Church seemed to simply attack a small noble.

But if he succeeded.

All the nobles would be in a state of panic in the future.

Imagine if the Holy Light Church could easily punish a noble, and other nobles saw that the parliament could not keep its members, who would trust the parliament in the future?

Invisibly, they divided the nobles of Maro City and weakened the influence of the parliament.

Since the parliament has no authority, why pay a bird tax?

Anyway, you have to pay money, wouldn’t it be better to pay it directly to the Holy Light Church to buy peace?

The Holy Light Church is digging the roots of the parliament.

At this time, Ethan finally understood what Leon meant by establishing authority before.

Fuck you, the sons of bitches of the Holy Light Church.

Can't everyone live a good life?

You have to stir up trouble?

You don't want to be quiet, right?

Okay, don't blame me for going against you!

Ethan has decided to save this unlucky guy.

But even if he saves him, he can't offend the Holy Light Church for nothing and get nothing!

So he leaned back in his chair, frowning and thinking deeply.

Andre is also a smart man. When he saw that Ethan didn't speak and was waiting for him to speak, he knew what he meant.

But... his family is too poor to give anything.

Helplessly, he could only say: "The Tegru family hopes to follow the Lawson family in the future and do what they can. I hope that Mr. Ethan can give this opportunity."

When Ethan heard that this was the only benefit, and it was just empty talk, he couldn't cry or laugh for a while.

However, it doesn't matter, it's an additional option.

And whether it's empty talk depends on strength.

When you have strength, it's not empty talk.

When you don't have strength, even if it's written in black and white, it's waste paper, and it may even become a disaster.

And Ethan thinks this family is still useful.

After all, they are in the printing industry, and now they are media tycoons and the mouthpiece of society.

It is because there are too many illiterates in this era that this industry is tepid and even difficult to move forward.

But Ethan thinks it can still be used a little.

For example, publish a newspaper or something.

As long as the news can be released, there is no need to rely on the Holy Light Church to spread the news as before.

Although people's literacy rate is not high, this news can be spread by word of mouth as long as one or two people can understand it.

And the literacy rate can be improved slowly.

After all, literacy itself is not difficult, but the difficulty is that there is no opportunity to learn literacy.

Ethan feels it is necessary to provide this opportunity.

For example, increasing educational institutions, etc., can also be regarded as doing something practical for Maro City.

In fact, the newspaper itself can be a tool for learning to read.

For example, a special page is opened up, which is full of literacy content, so that those who want to learn to read but cannot afford to go to school can provide some opportunities.

Opportunity is hope. Giving people opportunities is giving people hope, and hope is the driving force for people to move forward.

With this motivation, Maro City will get better and better, and Ethan is willing to give people this opportunity.

Although publishing newspapers now is definitely a losing business, Ethan's least lack is money now, and he will invest early to occupy the commanding heights of the media.

It may be of no use now, but after solving the health problems in Maro City, we can start to solve the education problems.

If there is no money now, we can even do it at the same time.

Perhaps in a few years, when the literacy rate rises, newspapers will be useful.

From this point of view, it is a good idea to accept the heart of this family first.

Thinking of this, Ethan stretched out his hand and put it on Andre's left shoulder...
