People in the Ming Dynasty are lawless

Chapter 169 A good show!Zhu Yuanzhang has a genius grandson!
Generally speaking, Zhu Youdun's drama mainly proceeds from two directions before and after the reform.

Students like Zhu Youdun were not like those in ordinary private schools. They only read and focused all their energy on the Four Books and Five Classics.

In addition to the fact that they were largely involved in the new knowledge and system given by Chen Han, they also took advantage of their convenient status as royal children to travel around the capital.

Even with the help of the royal protection, the results of the reform can be collected directly in the surrounding cities.

This is the task assigned to them by Xia Yuanji, and it is also the most important part of their study.

It’s just to experience the changes among the people for yourself.

Let them experience firsthand the difference between the people and the past.

It is precisely because of a large amount of social practice and going to the front line to experience the comparison before and after the reform that Zhu Youdun and the others gained more insights.

This play is not just the dramatic achievement of Zhu Youdou alone, but the realization of Zhu Gaochi and all of them.

This emphatically shows the changes of the businessman before and after. The play does not shy away from the fact that the businessman had a bad reputation before because he was short of money.

But it does not deny that these businessmen donated money for the world in times of disaster, so after they put this on stage, the people's view of businessmen became better.

At least those businessmen will no longer be discriminated against.

The role of businessmen has been recognized by some people.

Especially now that businessmen have paid a lot of taxes, which has reduced the burden on the people and made the people understand them more.
After watching the play, many businessmen shed tears.

In fact, because of the current climate, it is difficult for them to survive.

But now that such dramas have come out, they have finally gained the understanding of many people.

At the same time, I want to seize the current trend. Since the court has lifted so many restrictions, I naturally want to seize this opportunity and work hard to complete my own career.

It also lets more businessmen know that their own profession is not necessarily ineffective.

It can even become a concern for the country and the people.

Because of this, the business environment gets better with these publicity.

The second item is to publicize the tax reform after the tax reform.

Before the tax reform, ordinary people had to pay more taxes if they had little or no land.

And those who are rich use various exemptions and various means to hide their own fields and evade taxes.

As a result, taxes are allocated to ordinary people, and their lives become increasingly miserable.

But now it is different.

After the land is cleared, everyone can enjoy fair and just treatment.

This time, even in the palace, Zhu Yuanzhang let many people in.

The first thing is to have fun with the people.

The other is to let them all be able to watch this scene at this time.

After the common people saw the tax reform that spread the tax to every farmer, many people stood up and cheered and applauded.

Because they have indeed received huge benefits from spreading the land from one person to another.

Especially in coastal areas, there is less land and more people.

After allotments were made and the land was inspected, everything became transparent. The landowners who wanted to evade taxes had no way of escaping, and they could only pay the taxes obediently.

As a result, they reduced the burden of many poor people.

Even because there is no capitation tax, many illegal households have emerged.

The increase in the labor force will bring about a considerable increase in output.

Even these emerging black households have become industrial workers in urban workshops, adding strength to increase factory production.

And then there are the repertoires about the introduction of new technologies.

Especially textile machines and spinning machines.

After the introduction of these two things, the weaving efficiency in Jiangnan, especially in Songjiang Prefecture, increased, the cost dropped, and the price of cotton cloth dropped.

It was only when the common people watched this drama that they finally understood why the price of cotton cloth had dropped.

It turns out that all this is also due to Chen Han.

Only after the drama was performed vividly and wonderfully did they understand the reason.

Especially after the weaving scenes of the spinning jenny and flying shuttle loom were put on the stage, the people intuitively knew that it was such inventions that improved the efficiency of weaving.

After they finished reading, they were even more impressed by Chen Han, who was sitting next to the emperor.

I also understand why Chen Han was awarded the title of Marquis.

This is not only because of the war, but also because of these reforms.

And they were far away in Ningbo, and finally knew that the reason why the cotton cloth in Songjiang was so cheap was for this reason.

Such a play is not only rich in plot and vivid in plot, but also has profound connotation.

Although it is just a simple comparison, it can explain the current reforms in a logical way.

It can let more people know why those opponents want to deal with reformers like Chen Han.

This play is simply a new cultural trend of thought.

Let the common people understand and understand that the reason why many people attack the reformists is not because they feel that the reform has changed the so-called ancestral family law.

In fact, the fundamental reason is that these reforms will directly impact the interests of these people.

So they must make it impossible for reform to succeed.

Of course, the reform process also encountered many obstacles.

It can even be said that there are many people who do not understand the old principles, and then they become the guns of those conservatives or interests.

In fact, they have no idea what the reason for the reform is.

It’s just that some people tell them that reform is bad, and even promote new technologies as monsters that can eat people.

This caused many ordinary people to be afraid of it. However, after this play analyzed the reform situation in a simple and in-depth way, they realized that the original reform ideas were not about making monsters and monsters, but about making people's lives better. good.

Many people said "Oh" after seeing it.

It turned out to be the case.

Of course, Zhu Youdun did not forget to bring the hardships of the reform process to the stage.

For example, the first minister to die during the reform was Shen Liqian.

When Zhu Youdun wrote Shen Liqian's deeds into the opera, the common people saw Shen Liqian, the minister who sacrificed his life for reform, lying in a pool of blood, and many people burst into tears.

Even some officials also had tears in their eyes.

When Chen Han and Xia Yuanji saw the actor who played Shen Liqian in the play falling to the ground with such unwillingness in his eyes, they immediately recalled that Shen Liqian was in a pool of blood in front of themselves and others. That unwillingness The look in his eyes was like it was just yesterday.

The heartache, like a knife, still came like a tide, making their hearts tighten.

This was the first time that Chen Han felt that even if he was watching a show, he could still feel the impact.

After Xia Yuanji saw this scene, he drank a glass of wine and his eyes became red.

That's the comrade who lives with him day and night.

What a determined reformer that was.

What a determined reform official that is.

Although he sometimes showed fear.

Although sometimes I joke about being afraid of death.But every time there was a reform, he was always at the forefront.

When did you not sacrifice your own life to defend the results of reform?

But even so, it still did not escape the butcher's knife of those whose interests were touched.

Seeing him fall in front of his own people was even sadder than falling himself.

Fortunately, he and others did not flinch after he left, nor were they afraid because of this.

Instead, he firmly embarked on the road of reform with his share of will.

And the results have been quite substantial.

Chen Han was awarded the title of Pingluhou.

And he was directly promoted to Tobe Zuoshilang.

It can be said that it is a huge blessing to be promoted to the position of Minister of the Household Left at such a young age.

And this is just a small reward for the reform.

While Xia Yuanji was taking a sip of wine, he looked at Chen Han.

In fact, they were thinking in their hearts that even if they didn't want to be promoted to a higher position, it would be better if they could keep Shen Liqian alive.

If Shen Liqian were alive, the journey of reforming the Iron Triangle would have become even more determined.

Even when Shen Liqian saw that Chen Hanzhen had brought back so much silver from the Japanese slaves, he would definitely pick up a wine glass and tell himself and others that such a prosperous age should be so obvious.

But Shen Liqian will never see this scene.

Maybe he has a soul in heaven, and he will silently bless Chen Han and Xia Yuanji in heaven.

But Chen Han and Xia Yuanji still hope that he can live.

Even though everyone is still living in trepidation.

I still wonder if someone with vested interests will pay to kill me and others.

Even if you live like that, you can still sit together, drink and talk about your ambitions.

What a beautiful thing that is.

However, now he was permanently immersed in the small tomb, unable to see this moment.

This is the most distressing aspect of real reform.

Because it is impossible for reforms not to kill people.

When the officials saw Shen Liqian's death, they finally realized how dangerous it was.

It seemed that what Chen Han and the others experienced was definitely not as easy as he and others seemed.

Zhu Yuanzhang also felt the same way when watching this play.

We also saw Chen Han's anxious demeanor after Shen Liqian was killed, urging the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and the Supervisory Office to handle the case like crazy.

The viciousness of wanting to find the murderer was brought to the stage of the drama without any hesitation.

It was just like Dou E's injustice, the despair and helplessness of Yue Yue Feixue came out.

It can be said that the performance in opera is quite wonderful.

When Chen Han saw this scene, he knew there was a way out.

Even if it is not as compact and exciting as shown in the drama.

But when the fact is still inseparable, I also feel that I was really anxious at the beginning, and I also want everyone to understand that I am not easy to mess with.

Chen Han was even more moved when he saw this scene.

Fortunately, I and others succeeded in the reform, otherwise these things would be regarded as a joke and promoted in official circles every day.

I guess so.

Because there are countless people who want to see their own jokes.

Because after those people's interests were destroyed, all they thought about was how to bring Chen Han down.

As for the method, it is as despicable as possible.

In the last scene of the drama, Chen Han finally led the world to reform successfully, and the people lived happily.

The imperial court began to govern the world according to the new order, allowing everyone to enjoy the benefits they deserved.

It was even explained in the drama that once there are so many benefits, all officials in the world will be able to double their salary, which calms the anger of the officials in the world.

Finally, someone tried their best to support Chen Han at this time.

After seeing this scene, the people actually understood in their hearts that this was an impossible compromise.

Because if these officials are not allowed to obtain some benefits, their policy support for implementing reforms will shrink and they will be unwilling to do so.

So smart people actually understand at this time that this is a helpless compromise.

However, this kind of compromise is understandable.

Because Han Chuang has studied hard for more than ten years and once he becomes an official, if he cannot get some benefits, will these people be willing to do so?

If they are unwilling to do so, they are going to harm the people.

It was precisely because they thought of this that they could calmly accept what was shown in the drama. In the end, the officials finally accepted the reform after receiving double their salaries.

This is an ironic and helpless scene.

After Chen Han finished watching the play, he first stood up and clapped his hands.

I have to say that Zhu Youdou is indeed quite talented.

Chen Han would sigh with emotion after watching this play.

If I traveled through time and became a small official and carried out reforms from the bottom up, I don't know how great the resistance would be.

Even in a county, there is no telling how many people will be affected by the reform.

They will absolutely speak out against it.

And if you don't have the support of the imperial power behind you, you don't know how many times you will die.

Small reforms directly affect interests, and people will fight for you, let alone such a world-wide reform, you can imagine how many people's interests will be affected.

After watching this play, Chen Han became more and more convinced that art is very important.

In particular, the art of promoting new ideas must be promoted.

This is also an important part of reform.

Without this link, there would be no way for many reform trends to be conveyed.

So when he looked at Zhu Youdou, he praised him profusely: "Genius, really a genius."

To be able to accurately and keenly perceive these reforms in the world and then stage such a drama is definitely a genius.

This is equivalent to a media propaganda, such dramas should be arranged.

Chen Han even stood up and said to Lao Zhu: "Your Majesty, such a good show should be seen by everyone in the world.

More people should understand the reform, which can be more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people than the implemented policies. You have a genius grandson. "
