Chapter 397
And it's not a good thing to be liked by Zeng Jing, not to mention that Zeng Jing's face is only slightly better than ordinary women's after changing her appearance.

That is to say, Lu Zhu was only inspiring Zeng Jing but was mistaken by Zeng Jing for liking her, so he was not allowed to become a monk. If he dared to become a monk, Zeng Jing would kill all the monks in that temple.

Of course, in addition to this, the most important thing is that this hundred coins is also very valuable at this time. In the early Ming Dynasty, one tael of silver could buy seven stones of rice.

Converting its weight into the world before Bailixiu crossed over, it would be [-] catties of rice.

In Bailixiu's era, 2000 catties of rice was about [-] to [-] yuan. You must know that the monthly bill of a soldier at this time was only between one or two to two or two.

Because it was the beginning of the Ming Dynasty at this time, and it was still the Hongwu period. You must know that Zhu Yuanzhang not only killed corrupt officials like chickens, but also killed unscrupulous merchants without mercy.

If those businessmen dare to drive up the price of rice and buy at a low price and sell at a high price, then the bottom line is that they will end up killing everyone.

So in front of Gun Gun's head, naturally there is no room for those unscrupulous merchants to survive, because almost all those who dared to do so were sent down by Zhu Yuanzhang.

The most typical example is Shen Wansan. This guy was the richest man in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, but his fate was terrible!
Shen Wansan, whose real name is Shen Fugui, also known as Wansan, was born in the late Yuan and early Ming Dynasties, and was the richest man in Zhu Yuanzhang's period.

As the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang is well-known, and Shen Wansan, as the richest man in the Ming Dynasty, is also well-known.

But the tree is so big that the wind shakes the tree, and the people are famous and mournful. Shen Wansan, the richest man in Ming Dynasty, was killed by Zhu Yuanzhang mercilessly. The reason is naturally thought-provoking.

Zhu Yuanzhang was born in the Yuan Wenzong period of the Yuan Dynasty, and his impoverished family could only make a living by farming.When Zhu Yuanzhang was 15 years old, due to drought, locust plague and plague successively, his parents and eldest brother died successively. He and his second brother were alone and helpless.

Under the alms of the neighbor surnamed Liu, the two brothers wrapped the body of their parents and elder brother in a few rags and buried them on the Liu family's land.

Then the sister-in-law, nephew, and second brother went their separate ways with Zhu Yuanzhang, and began a life-saving life of wandering.

However, as the saying goes, when trees are moved to death, people are moved to live. Opportunities are created, not waited for in place. Zhu Yuanzhang’s run made him the founding emperor. Of course, with a history of 5000 years, he became the founding emperor There are dozens of emperors, but in terms of the worst start, Zhu Yuanzhang is the worst.

Even Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Han Dynasty, was also the head of the Surabaya Pavilion!Where is the administrator of the Great Qin Zheng'er Bajing!So compared with Zhu Yuanzhang's start, there is a gap between heaven and earth.

As the saying goes, a bowl at the beginning and a rope at the end, the transformation of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Youjian, the emperor who destroyed the country

So Zhu Yuanzhang, who had no long possessions, could only enter Huangjue Temple to be shaved and become a traveling boy. Day after day, he did the work of ringing the bell, offering incense, sweeping the floor, cooking, and doing laundry. Was reprimanded by the old monk.

Not long after, because there was no source of almsgiving in the temple due to the famine, the monks left the temple to seek alms. The 17-year-old Zhu Yuanzhang started his "wandering career" again.

Although this inexperienced young man was treated coldly during the begging process, Zhu Yuanzhang, who has traveled more than half of China, has experienced the warmth and coldness of human relationships, seen all kinds of situations in the world, understood the ways of dealing with things of different classes and the customs of various places, and accumulated a lot of experience. A lot of social experience.

Three years later, he returned to Huangjue Temple. At this time, he was no longer the mediocre boy who had no ambitions.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the ideological tide of peasant uprisings was surging, and Zhu Yuanzhang, who was abroad for alms, also heard the saying that "the king of Ming was born to save all sentient beings".

Not only that, but the White Lotus Sect in the north is also promoting it.Zhu Yuanzhang traveled around, gradually became interested in it, and increased his attention, joined the uprising, and King Ming was born.

Frequent natural disasters such as famine, coupled with the intensification of class struggle and ethnic conflicts, the desperate people at the bottom of society began to revolt.

Among them, Guo Zixing, a local tyrant located in the Dingyuan area, united several people to revolt and received positive responses from tens of thousands of people. Guo Zixing became the leader of the local White Lotus Sect and quickly occupied Haozhou.

Tang He, who joined Guo Zixing's team, remembered his childhood playmate Zhu Yuanzhang, so he invited him to join the rebel army. The 25-year-old Zhu Yuanzhang readily accepted and went to Haozhou to join the army.

Guo Zixing was appreciated by Guo Zixing for his courageous work, quick judgment, and a little literacy, and the two gradually became confidantes.Guo Zixing learned that Zhu Yuanzhang was unmarried, so he married his adopted daughter Ma Shi to him, and Ma Shi was the next generation of virtuous queens.

Once, Guo Zixing was kidnapped by another gang, Sun Deya. Zhu Yuanzhang led his troops to rescue him after hearing the news.

After successive recruiting and buying generals, Zhu Yuanzhang gradually broke away from Guo Zixing's organization, and with the help of various talents, he successively pacified various regions of China. In 1368, he proclaimed himself emperor in Jinling and named his country Daming.

And this is Zhu Yuanzhang's legendary life from a beggar to a generation of emperors. Even the 30 years in Hedong and the 30 years in Hexi are beyond description.

Because of his childhood experience, Zhu Yuanzhang was very sympathetic to the people, cared about the people's feelings, and took special care of the people at the bottom of the society. Most of the decisions of the Hongwu Reign were reforms for the people at the bottom of the society to have a better life.

Zhu Yuanzhang especially hated the bureaucrats who didn't know the sufferings of the people, and hated the rich who were corrupt and squandered even more, and even invented a series of tortures to execute them.

At this time, it is not like the late Ming Dynasty, when landlords, wealthy businessmen, and Guanliao have almost formed a community of interests, and the only goal of this community of interests is to exploit those common people.

At this time, the imperial power could no longer handle these interest communities as easily as in Zhu Yuanzhang's time. The emperor at the end of the Ming Dynasty was not much different from the mascot.

Of course, the most important thing is that these emperors who grew up in the deep palace have not been sharpened like Zhu Yuanzhang, and their methods and knowledge are naturally incomparable with Zhu Yuanzhang, and it is precisely because of this that they are turned around by those corrupt officials. I don't know it.

Of course, if it weren't for the endless oppression of these people, there would naturally be no Li Zicheng and the later Qing Dynasty.

However, this is unavoidable by human nature. From the 5000-year history, it can be seen that separation and reunion are the general trend. This is why there are only emperors who are famous for thousands of years, but there has never been a dynasty that lasted for thousands of years.

Of course, it is precisely because Shen Wansan, the richest man in the Ming Dynasty, faced an emperor like Zhu Yuanzhang, so the end would be very bad. After all, if he was facing the Tang Dynasty or the Song Dynasty, Shen Wansan's ending would not be so miserable.
