Daming: Brother, there is no future for monks, let's rebel

Liu Shenhong said with lingering fear: "Fortunately, the prince can control the situation."

"When the prince sprinkled sand into the porridge just now, the eyes of those refugees were almost red. I guess it was you, the prince."

"If it had been another person, they would have torn him into pieces long ago."

After hearing Liu Shenhong's words, Zhu Han suddenly felt a chill on his back.

He didn't think much about it just now, he just remembered that such a scene appeared in later TV series.

Although most of the things in TV series are not very reliable.

But Zhu Hanyin remembered that this seemed to be a change in real events?

Looking back now, when I threw sand into the porridge pot just now, the scene suddenly became quiet for a moment.

But he didn't think much about it at the time, so he just ordered a bowl of porridge and drank it.

It is probably because of this period of time that the strategy he implemented in the refugee camp did give hope to these suffering people.

Therefore, in the face of such an abnormal situation, it did not directly cause public resentment.

If it were another person to do this, he might be beaten to death on the spot by the angry people.

Zhu Han couldn't help but shudder. He reminded himself secretly that he must never be so old again in the future.

In the past, when fighting, there were no taboos against the enemy, and any means could be used.

It's different now, although there are still some foreign wars.

But Ming Dynasty now understands that those wars are actually no different from fighting bandits.

The continent of Europa in this period was quite primitive for Ming.

Therefore, China is still in a period of peaceful development.

Managing people's livelihood is completely different from fighting a war, and previous experience must not be applied.

Remind yourself like this in your heart.

On the surface, Zhu Han certainly looked like he had the pearls of wisdom in hand: "Of course, when did my king's strategy go wrong?"

"Your Majesty is wise, we will never finish learning in our lifetime." Liu Shenhong quickly flattered him.

Zhu Han glared at him angrily: "Why don't you imitate others and flatter them?"

"Why do you still learn so bluntly? Come and work for me now. If you dare to learn these messy things again, do you believe that I will peel off your skin?"

Liu Shenhong was not afraid, and looked upright and awe-inspiring: "Your Majesty, what I say is from the bottom of my heart, and I am not trying to flatter you."

"Get out!" Zhu Han was about to fight, but Liu Shenhong pretended to dodge and quickly retreated away.

After Liu Shenhong left, Zhu Han began to process official documents.

Things in Datong were urgent and he didn't dare to delay, and Zhu Han didn't dare to be careless about things in Yanjing.

After all, the construction of the new capital is also related to the future of Ming Dynasty.

During this period, Zhu Han discovered that Liu Song's letters to him contained more and more complimentary words for Liu Ji.

This change made Zhu Han's lips curl up involuntarily.

It should be said that he is worthy of Liu Bowen. In terms of human relations and sophistication, there is no one he can't handle as long as he wants to.

Although Zhu Han never worried that Liu Song would make any principled mistakes.

However, a person's attitude can still affect judgment to a great extent.

Among the officials currently serving in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Han's favorites include officials with particularly outstanding abilities, including Li Shanchang, Hu Weiyong, and Liu Ji.

Only people like Liu Song can enter Zhu Han's eyes.

Although Liu Song also had this problem, it was a problem unique to scholars of this era.

But this man's heart was upright.

As long as it is consistent with his political philosophy, even if he hates or even resents those things, he will work hard to do them without any compromise.

Unlike some people who do one thing on the surface but another behind the scenes.

Zhu Han picked up the pen and wanted to mention something about Liu Song.

But after thinking about it for a long time, I finally put the pen down.

The advantage of a person like Liu Song is that he can stick to his beliefs no matter what the circumstances.

But similarly, such people only believe in their own beliefs and will not easily change their minds because of what others say.

If he writes a letter asking Liu Song to pay attention to Liu Ji, no matter what the reason is, Liu Song may be dissatisfied.

When the time comes, the gains will outweigh the losses.

"Forget it, no matter what the relationship with Liu Ji is, I believe Liu Song will never abandon his private life for public affairs."

Sometimes Zhu Han also laments that not everyone can be the emperor.

Any emperor who can control the court, no matter how famous he is in history, will never have a simple role.

For people like Liu Song and Liu Ji, how to use it is a big skill.

Although Liu Song was upright, upright and decisive, there were some positions that these people really couldn't be allowed to occupy.

Liu Ji is not the Liu Bowen who was known for 500 years in advance and [-] years later in rumors.

If such a person is not successful, he may not become a person like Hu Weiyong in history.

It is only a foresighted person like him who can safely put them in the right position.

Originally, Zhu Han thought that the first step in building Yanjing would be directly on Liu Song.

After all, this credit is really of no use to him.

He is now the King of England.

One word side by side king.

Although it doesn't mean that you can't go further and get a title of king.

For example, the King of Qi, the King of Han, etc.

These princes who were crowned with the names of ancient dynasties should be the most honorable titles in this era besides the emperor.

However, Zhu Han didn't want those titles.

To others, China itself is already the vastest land in the world.

But in Zhu Han's eyes...

This is what it means to be promoted openly and demoted secretly.

If he is granted the title of King of Qi, it seems that his status will be improved.

But his fiefdom became the original Qi State in China.

What about his current fiefdom?
You can't just get a double share of the fiefdom after being promoted to a king. What will others think?
Zhu Han would never do such a loss-making business.

All in all, Yanjing is now.

Except for the fact that Zhu Han's original number one may gradually become the number two, everything else is developing rapidly in the best direction.

Although Liu Ji's own ability was only at the top level of scholar-bureaucrats in this period, he had an advantage that even Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong could not compare with.

Even at his current age, this guy's learning ability is still quite terrifying.

Liu Ji only listened to many of the things Zhu Han said a few times and could figure them out after he went back and studied them himself.

This point is not comparable to Liu Song.

Although Liu Song is upright and rigid, he is definitely not a stupid person.

In this era, it is impossible for a truly stupid person to pass the imperial examination and become an official.

But even so, Liu Song still seemed to understand a lot of what Zhu Han said, even if he told it continuously.

After reading a few more documents written by Liu Ji, Zhu Han gradually understood why Liu Song gradually obeyed Liu Ji.It's really Liu Ji who has done too much.

Zhu Han asked himself, even if he was in Yanjing now, he would not do much better than Liu Ji.

There were even some minor problems that Zhu Han didn't notice, but Liu Ji discovered them and found them in time.

This kind of adaptability is precisely what Liu Song lacks the most.

If placed in another empty Ming Dynasty, Liu Song's shortcomings would not be considered shortcomings at all.

The slowly developing social structure of fan society gives him enough time to adapt to all changes.

But now, what he is facing is a rapidly developing world.

For example, not long after Zhu Han left, Liu Ji directly proposed to expand investment in railway construction.

This was not in Zhu Han's original plan.

After all, any proposal to speed up the project represents an increase in the budget.

In particular, Yanjing is now using employment to replace the previous corvee.

Just this matter has allowed Zhu Han to accumulate a lot of fame among the people.

After all, corvee labor in the past was not done by humans.

Not to mention the low wages, the people also had to pay for round trip expenses out of their own pocket.

If you are kinder, you might be responsible for three meals a day; if you are more ruthless, you might be given a bowl of rice porridge a day.

Moreover, one or two months of corvee work may be at least one month, and if it is more, it may be more than half a year.

It was true that there was a family whose family was ruined because of this corvee service.

It is now changed to an employment system, although it is a benevolent government.

But for the court, hiring workers cost money

If workers are hired urgently, wages will naturally increase.

Plus urgent preparations in all aspects.

Even if Yanjing is rich now, he would not dare to make such a decision easily.

Liu Song insisted on his own opinion and naturally refused to listen.

The two argued so hard that they finally had to write a memorial to Zhu Han and let Zhu Han solve the problem.

Zhu Han was speechless at the time, and he was very pleased that Liu Song could strictly abide by his orders.

But hasn't this guy done some calculations?
At this time, building one more kilometer of railway can greatly reduce the loss of food.

At this time, reducing consumption is also a life-saving thing.

So Zhu Han directly waved his hand and asked Liu Song to support Liu Ji's proposal to expand the scale of railway construction.

Although these memorials were delivered quickly.

And at that time, Zhu Han hadn't arrived in Datong yet, so he didn't waste much time on the way.

Just after Zhu Han finished reviewing the memorial, Liu Shenhong, who had left before, walked in quickly: "My lord, all the grain merchants have arrived."

Zhu Han put down the memorial, rubbed his eyes and then stood up: "Let's go with me to meet these grain merchants? They are so lawless. Don't they even remember the promises they made to me before?"

In the former magistrate's court hall of Datong Prefecture, there were many grain merchants in luxurious clothes, all with unconcealable joy on their faces.

At a time when almost all the people in Datong are hungry and don't have enough to eat, these people's faces are glowing, and many of them are even fat.

Among them, the most obvious fat one belongs to Liu Ping'an, the shopkeeper of Liu's firm.

The reason for this is naturally because the Liu family is the local snake in Datong Prefecture.

In the past, this would have been nothing to be proud of.

After all, the location of Datong Mansion is relatively remote.

In the past, it was next to Mongolia, and it was regarded as the first front line against Mongolia.

Later, Zhu Han directly wiped out Mongolia, and they lost the role of a barrier here. The imperial court's large-scale garrison withdrew, and life was even more sad than before.

Although not long ago, the imperial court began to build railways.

Wu Zhen, the prefect of Datong, also went to observe the train in person.

I was also amazed that the King of England could create such wonderful tricks.

But a scholar university like Wu Zhen's understanding of economics is too superficial.

They are not really able to understand the earth-shaking changes that the railway will bring to the Ming Dynasty.

In short, no matter what, before today, the status of a family like the Liu family that took root in Datong Mansion was relatively not that high.

But in just a few days, the situation changed dramatically.

Because he had been active in front of His Majesty the King before, Zhu Han gave the Liu family a lot of convenience.

This made the Liu family instantly become a favorite.

To put it bluntly, the money earned in just these few days is more than the Liu family has seen in the past ten years.

People are in high spirits during happy events, and since people have been hosting banquets one after another recently, it's no wonder Liu Ping'an looks so good.

The grain merchants didn't know what Zhu Han wanted to do with them.

However, based on the previous experience, Zhu Han, the God of Wealth, might bring them another fortune.

Amid the excited expressions of the grain merchants.

Zhu Han, whose face was as cold as ice, walked in slowly.

The moment they saw Zhu Han's face, all the grain merchants trembled in their hearts.

Zhu Han looked like he was here not to make them rich, but more like to kill them.

Unload the mill and kill the donkey?
All grain merchants could not help but think of this word in their hearts.

After all, this kind of thing has happened more than once in history.

First, provide them with various conveniences to attract businessmen like them to come there.

After fattening up these merchants, they can be slaughtered and eaten in one go.

Zhu Han slowly came to the top, and his cold gaze swept over these grain merchants one by one: "Not bad, I haven't seen you for just a few days, and you all look much better than before."

"I would like to congratulate you all for making money."

At such a delicate time, how could those grain merchants dare to answer?
They all lowered their heads, not even daring to look at Zhu Han.

That appearance, as if he was afraid of bumping into Zhu Han and losing his sight, Zhu Han pulled him out and chopped him off.

Of course, not everyone is afraid of Zhu Han.

For example, there is a middle-aged shopkeeper named Shen Lian.

Shen Wansan is in charge of all businesses in Datong.

At the same time, he is also one of Shen Wansan's distant relatives.

In this era, it is simply impossible to do business without relatives.

This Shen Lian can be regarded as one of the more promising among Shen Wansan's relatives.

Otherwise, Shen Wansan would not be able to hand over the entire Datong Mansion business to him.

At this time, Shen Lian smiled and said to Zhu Han, "This is all due to the care of the prince. I, the Shen family, are grateful."

"If you have any errands, Your Majesty, please feel free to tell me. Our Shen family will do our best."

Hearing this, the grain merchants almost scolded Shen Lian to death.

What's the difference between telling Zhu Han that we pigs are already fat, come and kill us for meat?
