I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 1127 Once and for all

Zhu Yunwen remained silent, but it didn't mean he had nothing to say, but he knew that even if he knew it was a fact, if he didn't have a corresponding solution, it would be useless to say it, so he chose to remain silent.

He looked at Li Tian with clear and hopeful eyes, hoping that he could give a different answer, an answer that could truly make all the people in the world rich.

Li Tian seemed very excited, he could find someone to talk about what he had been holding back for so long.

"The so-called country is rich and the people are strong, it sounds as if only after the country is rich can the people be strong.

But in my opinion, this is putting the cart before the horse. If a country is only strong but the people are miserable, it cannot be called strong at all.

If a country wants to achieve it, the real country is rich and the people are strong, the first thing it should do is to strengthen the people, but it is a strong country! "

"I know that my argument sounds unreasonable, but it is the truth, the eternal truth."

"However, it is easy for a country to be strong and prosperous, but it is not easy to achieve the prosperity of the people. This is also the reason why the sage emperors throughout the ages have not been able to truly achieve this goal."

Hearing this, Zhu Yunqi hadn't heard anything yet, but from Li Tian's almost overflowing self-confidence, he could see that Li Tian must have great confidence that he could do this in the future.

He couldn't help asking in a low voice,

"Gao Chi, do you really know how to make the people rich?"

After asking this question, Zhu Yunqi actually regretted it a bit, because he knew in his heart how could this kind of thing be so easy, no matter how talented his cousin is, he might not be able to solve it. problem.

But what he didn't expect was that Li Tian became even more excited after he asked the question.

Li Tian suddenly laughed,

"If it is just to let the people of Ming Dynasty have white rice and meat every month, I can guarantee that it will definitely be realized within five years.

But if you think about reaching it, everyone is like a dragon, and everyone has the opportunity to choose their own destiny, then it will probably take 20 years! "

If ordinary people dare to say that, they will definitely be regarded as nonsense and nonsense.

But it is an emperor who is talking, and it is a former emperor who is obedient, so these words cannot be regarded as a joke.

Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but asked excitedly,

"Gao Chi, can you really do it?

But how can you do it? "

Li Tian didn't make a fool of himself, but directly cut to the point, talking about the center of the conversation between the two today.

"To achieve this step, we must first rescue the common people from the hands of nobles."

Zhu Yunwen was confused,
"What do you mean by that? What is the relationship between a rich country and a strong people and honorable nobles?"

"It's a big deal.

Does my cousin know that [-]% of the business in the entire Nanjing city is actually controlled by nobles? "

Zhu Yunwen shook his head. To be honest, he really didn't know about this kind of thing. Even if he paid attention to it, he never expected it to be so serious.

"Is there really so many? Gao Chi, you heard it from hearsay!"

Li Tian said with a serious expression,

"It can only be more, never less."

"Those nobles control the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the entire city. It can be said that all the lives of the people are closely related, and they have become tools and channels for them to make money.

The people's own business is not big at all, even if someone suddenly has a very good idea, it will soon be directly copied by the more powerful nobles, and those who cannot copy will be forcibly grabbed.

Day after day, year after year, as long as the power in the hands of the nobles is not contained at all, everything in this city is still in their hands. "

"Cousin, I want to ask you, besides dredging from the bottom, what else can we do to revitalize such a city?"

Zhu Yunxuan's face became very bad, because he knew that even though the matter might not be as serious as Li Tian said, it is indeed true that the Kexungui Group amassed money wantonly through its own power.

Until now, he somewhat understands why Li Tian is so determined to turn Nanjing into an ordinary city, and why he still wants to crush the nobles who are parasitic on Daming's back to suck blood at the risk of Da Ming's foundation being unstable. Soil.

But even if he understood it, he still disagreed in his heart. Li Tian handled this matter in such an extreme way.

Because he knew that the Xungui Group seemed to be in disarray, but in fact it was an extremely united group, especially in the matter of seeking benefits from the imperial court with their skills, they were extremely united.

If Li Tianyi does not handle it properly, it may cause extremely serious consequences.

This is also the main reason why he can stand here today, regardless of his own safety, to stand up and stop Li Tian.

He sighed and said,
"Gao Chi, I know that you want to solve the problem of the Xungui Group once and for all, but this matter cannot be resolved by a government order or a decision.

After all, they are all courtiers who have made great contributions to Daming.

If they were desperate to eradicate all their foundations, how could they be reconciled.

Aren't you afraid that they will join hands to deal with you, making you unable to be the emperor? "

Zhu Yunqi was completely anxious this time, without the calm state of mind before, his voice almost trembled.

But Li Tian didn't have any emotional fluctuations, as if he didn't care about the dangers Zhu Yunqi said.

"If you want to talk about worry, I'm naturally worried too, otherwise I wouldn't bring a new army that has not been trained for a long time to come over!"

Hearing the word Xinjun, not only Zhu Yunwen frowned, expressing bewilderment, but even Tang Sai'er trembled slightly.

"What does this new army mean? Is it possible that why you specially prepared a large army for this matter?
What do you want to do?
Could it be that you plan to use force to suppress those nobles who may cause trouble?
No, absolutely not, do you know how many people will die in the world once you do this.

At that time, I am afraid that not only the millions of people in Nanjing City will suffer, but most of the south of the Yangtze River will be reduced to scorched earth! "

Seeing that Zhu Yunqi was so excited, Li Tian smiled wryly and shook his head,
"Cousin, calm down first. My new army is not planning to fight them. They only have more than 2000 people in total. They can only be used as a deterrent at best. If we really want to talk about fighting, this manpower is not enough!"

Hearing that there were not many new troops, Zhu Yunqi was relieved, and secretly rejoiced,
"Fortunately, fortunately, he didn't intend to burn jade and stone together, otherwise the city of Nanjing may really be lost."
