Ming Dynasty: He was ordered to give lectures in prison, but Lao Zhu eavesdropped and made people nu

Chapter 358 There is a drought in the Central Plains

"And as long as you and the princes keep your mouth shut, there will be no risk of exposure to this plan."

"I am just worried that if some gentry children who miss the former Yuan Dynasty make great contributions in the battle to annihilate the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, how will they be dealt with then?"

This is a very disgusting thing, but it is bound to happen.

After all, it is easy for cavalry to achieve military exploits on the battlefield.

If by then, this is happening.

Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely not hold his nose and hand out rewards to others.

But if he turns his back and refuses to recognize anyone, then the ranch affairs may come to naught.

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his eyebrows and felt that this matter was a big problem.

He wanted to discuss a suitable solution with everyone.

But suddenly he glanced at Liu Sanwu again and asked, "I wonder if Liu Aiqing has any good ideas?"

What Liu Sanwu was waiting for was Zhu Yuanzhang's words.

He immediately nodded and said: "Your Majesty, I believe that the only way to deal with the remnants of the former Yuan Dynasty is to kill them to eliminate future troubles."

"Before recruiting, the captain of the Duwei Mansion can be asked to investigate their identities and divide them into two levels with ordinary gentry."

"You can relax as much as you can about their training, and when performing tasks, if they are allowed to die, there will be absolutely no mercy."

Zhu Yuanzhang heard Liu Sanwu's murderous advice.

His brows wrinkled subconsciously, but suddenly relaxed.

Obviously, Liu Sanwu's advice to him came second.

The main purpose is to prove one's loyalty.

Zhu Yuanzhang was very satisfied with this, and he had the full support of Liu Sanwu, the first scholar in the world.

The difficulty of cleaning up the scum of the gentry in the world can be described as easy.

Fu Youwen also expressed his position at this time: "What Great Scholar Liu said is wrong. On the battlefield, those who are not good at martial arts will inevitably suffer casualties."

"How can you say that the court is asking them to die?"

As soon as this was said, the three people in the room looked at each other and smiled.

Apparently, Lin Che said that the gentry who missed the former Yuan Dynasty were sentenced to the death of their descendants.

……

the other side.

After Zhu Xi finished digesting Lin Che's plan.

Suddenly, a new question popped up in my mind.

"Mr. Lin, according to what you said, all you need to do is trap the sons of the gentry to death on the battlefield."

"Or if we let them all go to guard the country's borders, wouldn't the people's lives be easier?"

After all, Lin Che said it just now.

It is necessary to give the management authority of part of the pasture to many gentry.

And a gentleman would definitely not leave such an important position to others.

Not only would the entire clan move outside the Great Wall, but they would at least move to the Nine Borders, running back and forth between the grasslands and the pass.

As a result, the gentry gathered together.

The ten thousand people who were exploited by them should be able to live a good life.

"It's not that simple."

Lin Che took a sip of wine, shook her head and smiled, "Even if the gentry and landlords are gone, the local officials are still there."

"Without a backer, they might be able to collect less taxes in the name of the court."

"But they will never give up the benefits they have obtained, and the people will still be exploited."

To put it bluntly, most of the landowners and gentry in the Ming Dynasty were cancers left in the Ming Dynasty by the Yuan Dynasty.

Moreover, these methods of harming the people were promoted and strengthened in the Ming Dynasty.

So much so that the officials of the imperial court have become proficient in this technique of killing the people. From Lin Che, Zhu Xi got the strategy to deal with the scum of the world, the local tyrants and evil gentry.

I originally thought that this was a two-shot plan that would benefit the people.

Unexpectedly, Lin Che gave a negative answer.

Zhu Xi ran out of ideas for a while and asked quickly: "Sir, how should we deal with these corrupt officials at the bottom?"

Lin Che yawned and said calmly, "This will be your after-school homework. You can think about it when you get back."

"If you figure this out, you will understand what kind of changes chemical fertilizers will cause in the social structure."

"And how to deal with this change and make it beneficial to the people and the world."

Zhu Xi, who was so excited, didn't even notice that it was time to finish class.

Even though he was very reluctant.

But he could only bow to Lin Che and leave the Confucius Temple with Zhu Bai.

They planned to use the fastest time to perfect the plan proposed by Lin Che.

However, before Zhu Yuanzhang went to the imperial court, he suddenly thought of something.

Then he asked Fu Youwen, the Minister of Household Affairs next to him, "Have you already started the process of immigrating to the Central Plains?"

"I received an urgent report from the governor of Henan yesterday, saying that the price of rice and noodles in the Central Plains has increased by half."

"If it doesn't rain within ten days, the prices of various grains will increase at least five times."

Just like the disaster in the Central Plains, a big outbreak suddenly occurred.

Then even if the advance army led by Hu Yunqiang has discovered the location of the golden mountain and silver island mentioned by Mr. Lin.

The imperial court also had to first use its limited money to treat the victims.

Otherwise, if these hungry people fled to other state capitals, even if there was no disaster here, the local people would not have the chance to collect food into granaries.

"Your Majesty, in accordance with the instructions of His Highness the Crown Prince, I have sent someone to the Central Plains with the people in the Crown Prince's womb a few days ago."

Fu Youwen counted the time with his fingers, and after approximating the date, he replied: "If nothing goes wrong along the way, they should have reached the border of the Central Plains by now."

"The first batch of people, I plan to take them along the waterway to the Quanzhou factory construction site, and the wages will be paid one day."

"This place is relatively close to the Central Plains. After this group of people receive their wages twice, it will definitely play the role of demonstration as Mr. Lin said, allowing more victims to leave the Central Plains."

However, the tradition that it is difficult to move from one's homeland is a shackle that is difficult to break.

Fu Youwen was worried that the people in the Central Plains would not leave their hometown until they were about to starve to death.

So we didn’t plan to recruit many people the first time, we just hoped that they could attract more victims to leave.

Zhu Yuanzhang listened carefully to Fu Youwen's words, and after considering whether there were any omissions in them, he nodded: "Very good, if this matter is completed, I will definitely reward you heavily."

……

His eyes turned.

Zhangde Mansion, Yuzhou, Henan.

It hasn't rained here for a month.

In the countryside, whether it is wheat seedlings or grass and trees, they all look yellow and withered.

Countless people braved the scorching sun and walked more than ten miles of mountain roads.

Carrying water from the mountains to water the wheat that is almost withered.

Unfortunately, the weather is too hot.

After the water was poured down, the land was evaporated by the sun before it could absorb much.

However, even if you water it like this, it is no different from doing useless work.

But no one dared to stop diving.

Because you sweat a little more, you can still gain something when it's time to gather for the wheat harvest.

But if you do nothing, let the wheat wither.

Then the whole family will starve to death!
