Chapter 82
82: System: Taking stock of the list of Ming Emperors, you, Zhu Yuanzhang, can only be ranked fifth at most!
As the saying goes, it is easy to conquer a country but difficult to defend it.
As the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally knew this.
It is naturally extremely difficult to manage a country as big as the Ming Dynasty, and it is even harder to hold on to it~!
According to the system, Zhu Hejun was able to defend the country left by his ancestors because of a mistake!
But having said that, if he really wanted to cede the land like Emperor Zhengren did when Jerusalem rebelled, and simply let it go out independently, Zhu Yuanzhang really couldn't accept it!
No matter what, how can we give up the country we finally conquered?
In other words, Zhu Yuanzhang also longed in his heart for Ming Dynasty to truly become a dynasty on which the sun never sets and expand its territory to the whole world!
As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang woke up, it was time to go to court early.
But thinking about Laojiu Zhu Yue, Zhu Yuanzhang seemed absent-minded.
After finally getting down to the morning court, Zhu Yuanzhang came again���When I arrived at the Imperial Garden, looking at the golden ears of rice in front of me, I asked Wang Chen to send someone to call Zhu Biao over.
"I would like to send my regards to my father!"
Soon, Zhu Biao appeared behind Zhu Yuanzhang
"Biao'er is here? Look at these rice grains!"
Zhu Yuanzhang waved to Zhu Biao and motioned for him to come to him.
Zhu Biao was a little helpless. It was not that he had never seen it before, but his father had to see it every day. It felt like he was seeing these rice plants every day. The feeling is different from yesterday!
"This rice looks like it’s ready to be harvested, right?"
Zhu Biao looked at the mature ears of rice and asked tentatively.
But in his mind, he was thinking about harvesting them early, so that he wouldn't have to watch them helplessly every day!
"Well, it will be collected in five days!"
"I estimate that I can harvest about two kilograms of rice!"
Zhu Yuanzhang grinned.
He was a farmer himself. The best time to harvest rice is to wait until it is ripe!
The rice that has just matured has not yet been harvested!
More than a hundred rice seeds can be harvested. Harvesting two kilograms of rice is quite good!
Two kilograms of rice seeds are enough for him to plant another two acres of land! However
, this imperial garden is obviously not big enough and he has to find another place!
It's too far. After all, he still thinks about it every day. He has to be able to see it easily so that he can rest assured. He might as well ask someone to plant two acres of land on the edge of the imperial city tomorrow!
How much, it all belongs to Lao Jiu. He, Zhu Yuanzhang, grows his own, and he doesn’t care about Lao Jiu’s things!
In short, Zhu Yuanzhang is still complaining about Lao Jiu!
Besides, Ming Dynasty’s treasury is relatively full now! Because the southern generation of salt merchants are basically controlled by him, which also saves him from worrying about money! The only thing that can make him think about it now is the issue of food.
, but Zhu Yuanzhang will definitely accept the things that Hanzhong Prefecture paid tribute!
It’s cheap and he’s not stupid!
Besides, condiments such as chili sauce and fermented bean curd, he can only say that they are really fragrant now. I feel like I can’t stop! The summer rice harvest in Hanzhong Prefecture has begun!
Everyone in Hanzhong Prefecture who has planted Zhu Qu’s new type of rice is so happy that they can’t stop laughing! Have you ever seen such a high yield of rice?
This harvest is equivalent to more than two years in total! And this is only the summer harvest, and there is still a second autumn harvest!
Zhu Yue also introduced a policy that families who grow new types of rice can be exempted from taxes for one year, and only half of the harvested rice needs to be sold to the King of Han. The King of Han will spend money to buy it back and continue to sow it for other farmers. Continue to promote it!
At the same time, the harvest of new types of rice has also begun in Xi'an Prefecture.
After the beginning of spring, Zhu Li arranged for people to plant some of the two varieties of potatoes in Xi'an Prefecture. Hanzhong Prefecture has it.
This bumper harvest has made the people in the two places who are lucky enough to grow these high-yield foods very busy!
With this food, they no longer have to suffer from hunger!
Good!
There is a bumper harvest of rice and potatoes. Although the corn harvest is not that good, the yield per acre is still amazing. Any of these three crops can be used as staple food, and the people have more choices when harvesting these crops! , Zhu Yue also specially passed on some of the recipes he prepared.
In fact, there is no need for Zhu Yue to promote it. People still have a lot of research on eating, and they can make delicious things by themselves, especially potatoes. , there are more ways to eat it, whether it’s shredded, sliced, grilled, boiled, steamed, or stir-fried!
What Zhu Yue didn’t expect was that he provided a method to make popcorn with corn! Rice Krispies has become the favorite snack of children in Hanzhong Prefecture.
However, with such a good harvest, the people are happy, Zhu Yue is also happy, and some people can’t help but feel jealous!
Needless to say, Hanzhong Mansion was originally the base camp where Zhu Yue had been operating for many years. Messy things rarely happened. The local officials knew the methods of King Zhu Yue of Han, and no one dared to do anything shady under his nose.
But over in Xi'an Mansion, Zhu Li heard that something was wrong in the past two days!
Before the Chinese New Year, Xi'an Mansion had been officially taken over by Zhu Li.
But although the King of Qin Zhu Xi was moved to Huai'an, there were no local officials who colluded with him in the past!
Zhu Feng has oppressed the people and acted arrogantly in Xi'an for so many years, and it is inevitable that this group of officials secretly colluded to cover it up. It can be said that there is not much in Xi'an government, but there are many corrupt officials!
But since Zhu Xi was recalled to the capital by Zhu Yuanzhang, these officials have become much more honest one by one.
After the news that King Qin moved to Huai'an came out, all the officials in Xi'an became frightened, fearing that the imperial court would take action against them!
So in the past six months or so, these corrupt officials have basically stopped one by one, and no one dares to make any more mistakes at this juncture!
However, in addition to moving the King of Qin to a new title, Zhu Yuanzhang's only explanation for Xi'an was to hand it over to the King of Han Zhu Yue to govern, and there was no follow-up movement, which left many people puzzled!
But Zhu Li knew that the old man wanted to test himself!
He didn't move there just because he wanted to see how he could bring order to Xi'an Mansion!
However, Zhu Yue's focus had been on grain production before, so he didn't have time to deal with these corrupt officials due to historical omissions. Anyway, they had stopped for the time being, so Zhu Yue was not in a hurry!
For Zhu Yue, if he wants to deal with this group of people, it only takes a matter of minutes, but the issue of food is more important!
But this time, Zhu Li didn't expect that someone would dare to take risks and take the risk of potatoes and rice!
At first, a few local squires became jealous when they saw the bumper harvest of several farmers, and then secretly resorted to tricks, and together with several local officials in charge of agricultural affairs, they concocted an enemy case to frame one of the farmers.
In order to save himself and his family, the farmer had to sell his land to the squire at a low price to save it!
If just a little food is not enough for these squires and officials to use such despicable methods!
But it is often this kind of person who can best see the benefits that such high-yielding grain can produce!
They want these grains, not to sell them, but to grow them!
Because the grain seeds distributed by the Han Palace were only distributed to ordinary farmers, forget about the local tyrants and squires.
So they looked jealous and saw the huge benefits, and then they started to have thoughts that they shouldn't have!
In their opinion, this was just a trivial matter. How could Han Wang Zhu Yue cause trouble for them because of such a thing?
At first, everything was fine.
But there are many people who can’t help but be jealous!
When other wealthy gentry saw someone obtaining grain seeds in this way, they would naturally have the same idea!
So there began to be more examples like this all over the place!
There are several counties in Xi'an Prefecture. In almost every county, several farmers were framed by local squires and officials and were forced to sell their land at a low price. Naturally, the newly matured grain was also sold at a low price!
But these squires and officials never expected that the Han Palace would issue a policy to buy back half of the grain!
If only one or two farmers' fields change owners, it won't be a big deal, but gradually the people harvesting the grain will discover the problem.
After a little investigation, the whole thing was basically revealed!
"hehe……"
Seeing the secret letter reported from the Xi'an Mansion, Zhu Li laughed angrily!
He didn't expect that he didn't have time to deal with these corrupt officials and landlords, and instead they jumped out on their own!
Just for their own selfish interests, the fields of so many farmers were annexed by these squires and corrupt officials! (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
If Xi'an was still the fiefdom of Qin King Zhu Yue, Zhu Yue wouldn't meddle in his own business!
But now Xi'an Mansion is his Zhu Yue's base!
These guys who care about food but not fighting are trying to attack Zhu Yue's head!
"During the Qin and Han Dynasties, have you ever investigated Feng Qing, the chief envoy to Xi'an, and Qian Sen, the inspector-general?"
Zhu Yue pondered for a moment, then asked directly to the Qin and Han Dynasties.
The chief envoy is a local official in Shaanxi. Zhu Yue either doesn't move, or he kills them all from top to bottom!
Those little minions at the bottom of the gang, I really can’t attract Zhu Yue’s interest!
If you want to do something big, do it! After all, a chief envoy is a third- level official! It's so messed up down there, how can anyone believe that these two chief officials didn't know anything about it?
Feng Qing and Qian Sen were frequent visitors to the Prince of Qin's Mansion every day!
"Is His Highness planning to take action against Xi'an officialdom?"
Qin Han suddenly became energetic!
He had long been unhappy with those corrupt officials. Zhu Yue had been busy with farm work before, so he couldn't say much, but he knew that this time, those idiots had touched Zhu Yue's evil side!
"Doesn't the old man want to see our results? Then we, as sons, cannot let him down!"
"You ask Geng Qing to lead people to do this matter. Every one of them will be counted, and I will find out all of them damned!"
Zhu Li snorted expressionlessly.
"I will make arrangements now!"
Qin Han nodded solemnly, and then took the order and left!
Xi'an Mansion.
The chief envoy Si Yamen.
Feng Qing and Qian Sen, the two chief officials of the province, were all frowning at this moment.
The move of King Qin to the title was undoubtedly a big deal for them. It was like the sky was falling, making them panic all day long!
But what the two of them couldn't figure out was that there was no unnecessary movement from the court, which seemed extremely abnormal!
"Mr. Feng, in the past few months, the entire Xi'an officialdom has been in panic, and I have been thinking a lot. Do you think it is possible that the superiors do not want to make King Qin look too bad, so they have chosen not to move us for the time being?"
Qian Sen expressed the conclusion he had come up with at this time.
He also asked someone to inquire about what was going on at the court, but to no avail.
Apart from this reason, he really couldn't find any other explanation!
After all, If you want to investigate them, you will inevitably find King Qin again. Zhu Yuanzhang may very well choose to show his favor to them in order to protect King Qin!
"I hope you are right!"
"But do you really think it’s so easy to talk to people above? If he wants to take action, there are ten thousand ways to kill you and me without involving King Qin!"
Feng Qing is obviously more intelligent than Qian Sen, and his face looks more serious!
"So why?"
Qian Sen was immediately confused!
"You and I seem to have overlooked someone!"
Feng Qing hesitated for a moment, and suddenly reminded him slowly.
Qian Sen was stunned, but soon a person's name appeared in his mind: King Zhu Yue of Han!
Because Zhu Yue's fiefdom was Hanzhong, he was not in Xi'an Prefecture at all..
Although Xi'an is currently managed by him, except for the recent farm work, there seems to be no other news from the Han Palace!
In this way, it is easy for them to ignore it!
"No, we can't wait for that person to come to us. The only way now is for us to take the initiative to find him!"
"If it doesn't work, let's spit out some of the oil and water we have gained over the years. As long as the King of Han can open his mouth, we may not be able to be saved!"
Feng Qing gritted his teeth and seemed to have made a decision!
At night, Yingtian Palace!
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know about the great grain harvest in Hanzhong Palace. After lying on the dragon bed at night, he opened the system interface again.
He was still struggling. Regarding the ranking of the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty!
Zhu Li is number one, he has no objection!
This Laojiu is indeed very capable, and he has lived to be a hundred years old, and with systematic assistance, he is above him. It's acceptable!
As for Zhu Hejun, who is ranked second, he has no temper!
After all, this kid has awakened to cheating at the age of sixteen, and he is such a cheat!
The most curious question for Zhu Yuanzhang at the moment is, what can he do here? Where does the Ming Emperor rank among the rankings?
"System, tell us the truth, where can we rank?"
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang simply asked the system directly
【According to the comprehensive ranking of the system, you should only be ranked fifth! 】
Soon, the system gave a reply.
Zhu Yuanzhang:"?????"
Good guy!
Can’t even get into the top three?
Besides Lao Jiu and that brat who committed suicide at the age of sixteen, who else could be better than him?
"As the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, we can't only be the fifth one, right?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was speechless!
【The ranking results judged by the system are all evaluated according to future generations!】
【Suppose that the territory of the Ming Dynasty has reached the Mediterranean region, and Jerusalem and the Ottoman Empire suddenly rebel at this time, what do you think Zhu Yuanzhang can do? 】
Zhu Yuanzhang opened his mouth, and finally sighed!
We are old... we can’t fight anymore!
Unless...unless we can go back to the time when we were twenty years old, and we also woke up and enabled cheats in the system!
But he was extremely unlucky. He also had cheats, but he only woke up when he was about to die and was about to enter the coffin. Are you angry?
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang became even more unconvinced!
If Zhu Yuanzhang was allowed to obtain the system at the age of twenty, he would definitely do no worse than Lao Jiu!
Isn't it all a matter of comparison?
They just take advantage of youth or longevity! ps: Please give me flowers!!! Asking for a monthly ticket!!! Ask for a rating vote!!! mouth!.
