Chapter 26 Zhu Di, who alone carries the burden

Children often like to stick to others, especially those who are a few years older than themselves, mature than their peers, and not as far away as adults.

Since Liu Chun came to the Yan Prince's Mansion again, the little fat man has become the tail, and behind the little fat man, there is a faint tail!

The naughty child Zhu Gaoxu became more and more disgusted with his elder brother and Liu Chun. Before, when Zhu Gaochi had just arrived in Peking, he could bully his elder brother by relying on his local tyrants. Zhu Gaochi let him tease him and did not dare to do anything.

It’s not the case now. What Xiaopangdun got from Liu Chun is not only a way to exercise her body, but also confidence and courage. He is kind and respectful. When his brother is good to his younger brother, he must also discipline him when he should discipline him!

What made Zhu Gaoxu even more frustrated was that his elder brother became domineering, and his father and mother both looked at his elder brother, his former favorite of his parents, and he was frequently ignored by the eyes.

But Zhu Gaoxu was so angry that he had no choice.

Look, the little monk is here again, and he will definitely teach big meat balls bad ideas again!

He hid behind the pillar like a shadow and eavesdropped... "I heard that you took out all the land and hired workers, don't you feel sorry?" Zhu Gaochi squatted in the corner of the wall and asked while gnawing on the buns.

Liu Chun smiled and said, "There is no way. Our Majesty pursues equalization of land. All the people in the world have a piece of land. Peking is not dense, and everyone is in peace and well-being. Although they live in poverty, they enjoy it. If they don't use land, the people will not be willing to work."

"oh!"

The little fat man nodded, don't underestimate him.

When Zhu Gaochi was very young, he followed a group of cousins ​​to receive education in front of Zhu Yuanzhang. He was influenced by his knowledge and his knowledge was not much worse than that of ordinary adults.

"Then why not recruit civil servants, but recruit civil servants without spending money!"

Liu Chun was stunned, "The eldest son, the ancients said that if you are willing to give up, you will have to give up and gain. However, we Guo believed that there is force and reaction force. Although using civil servants does not spend money, the quality of military rations cannot be guaranteed and the efficiency cannot be improved. After spending money and paying the price, the migrant workers do things carefully, be careful to ensure the quality of military rations. Only when the soldiers are full can they follow the prince to kill the enemy in front of the formation and make meritorious contributions. Do you think?"

The little fat man stuffed half of the bun into his mouth, ate it in three bites, stretched out two oily thumbs, and smiled at Liu Chun, "I understand, you are for your father! Mother's mother said, you are a very good friend!"

Liu Chun and Zhu Di are always separated by a layer, but Xu prefers Liu Chun. The so-called love for the house and the Wu, Xu follows Zhu Di north early and leaves his eldest son with Lao Zhu.

After so many years, Xu always felt that she owed Zhu Gaochi a lot, but she didn't know how to compensate her son. After Zhu Gaochi made Liu Chun, Xu simply treated Liu Chun better, which was reasonable.

"By the way, didn't the princess say that she wanted to get mosquito repellent bags for the soldiers? I'm ready." Liu Chun said with a smile.

The fat man jumped up and immediately took Liu Chun to see his mother.

...

The small linen bag is strong and durable, the size of a palm, the stitches are very fine and even. A rope is tied to the outlet, and the medicinal materials are installed, the mouth is tied in, and the belt is hung.

Xu was very satisfied with the view and even said yes.

"Although things are small, it shows that you are concerned about it. It's not easy to have ten thousand. How much does it cost, please tell me!"

Liu Chun hurriedly said, "Princess, it is said that the people should respect the prince, but these things were made by many women who stayed up late. I dare not owe them wages. One of them costs eight cereals and give them all, and I will not even put a copper coin in my pocket."

Xu chuckled, "It's yours, it's yours. The dignified Yan Prince's Mansion will not take advantage of you. I just want eight cents, won't I lose money?"

Liu Chun shook his head quickly, "Princess, it's really not to be hiding. The cloths used to make purses are not new. Some are rags collected from the silk and satin shop in Beijing, and some are old clothes replaced with corn... But the princess rest assured that all these cloths were cooked in hot water and washed, and there was absolutely no problem."

It is indeed not necessary to use it for soldiers so carefully, as new cloth is a waste.

Xu nodded, "I didn't see that you are quite good at calculating. It's not easy for those poor women in the countryside. In order to support their families, they work hard during the day and have to be a female girl at night. This way, it's calculated at ten cents per person. In the future, the three guards of the royal palace need to make mandarin duck battle jackets, robes and armor, and they will also be handed over to you. This is what I told the prince!"

Ho!

Liu Chun is in full bloom!

What did he spend all his efforts and disperse the Lu family's property?

Currying against Zhu Di is only one aspect, he wants to get a stable way to make money.

According to Zhu Yuanzhang's ideal, any way of speculation is blocked, even if the world's most profitable business is possible... salt can lose money during the Hongwu period!

Because I need to transport grain to Jiubian to exchange for salt intake, I will receive salt from the salt farm and I also need to transport it by the government and sell it by the government. If I get stuck in one link, I will lose all my pants.

Other industries are more conceivable.

Liu Chun no longer expects to get rich quickly by doing business. The remaining two paths are: farming and work. He has some ideas about farming, but the problem is that the grain needs to be harvested every year and cannot fight against God.

So there is only one way to do work, and the commercial demand in the early Ming Dynasty was suppressed to an extremely low level, and there was nothing to trade with the people, only trading with the military.

Fortunately, Zhu Yuanzhang won all his Northern Expeditions. It would be no problem to follow the Ming army behind him and drink some soup.

Xu was really careful. Without Liu Chun's words, she took the initiative to mention it.

It saves Liu Chun a lot of trouble.

Xu directly asked someone to withdraw money, 10,000 purs, each with ten cents, a total of 100,000 ounces, equivalent to 100 taels of silver. Xu did not fool the money with the treasure money, and directly took out two big ingots of fifty taels from his small treasury and gave it to Liu Chun.

"The palace of the mosquito repellent spices has been prepared. After I turn around, I will send them to the soldiers. I can do so much for the prince." Xu lowered his head slightly. No matter who it was, it was not a trivial matter to attack outside the border. Xu's heart was suspended.

Liu Chun, who had earned two big ingots, narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but feel joy. With this hundred taels, he could build five more windmill stone mills, and his ability to process military rations could be doubled!

"Young Master, it's time for us to talk about the division of shares." Liu Chun said to the fat man with a smile. Zhu Gaochi was stupid and had no idea that a big pie fell from the sky.

...

"This time my father's meaning was that the army was stationed in the Tongzhou area of ​​Beiping and observed the movements. Then he first took Qingzhou and then attacked Jinshan!"

The Xu family's general, Tiger Girl, quickly understood Zhu Yuanzhang's intentions.

According to Liu San's secret report, Zhu Yuanzhang learned that there were many conflicts between the Northern Yuan court and the Liaodong Taiwei Nahachu, so he first took Qingzhou and cut off the connection between the two. Then, he went north to capture Jinshan, cut off Naha's route of fleeing west, and compressed his 200,000 people in Liaodong, pressed step by step, and oppressed Naha's surrender!

With this deployment alone, who dares to underestimate the Hongwu Emperor's military talent!

Attack him by chance, avoid the real and attack the weak, and use his power to suppress others!

Naha had 200,000 people, and Zhu Yuanzhang had 200,000 people. If he had left Liaodong and fought head-on, even if he won, he might not be able to eliminate Naha. Maybe he abandoned Liaodong and surrendered to the Northern Yuan court, which would pose a greater threat.

Lao Zhu's move can only be described in two words: clever!

"Prince, Gyeongju is within easy reach, and it is not difficult to win. The key to this battle is how to seize the gold mountain!"

Zhu Di smiled, "Madam, I will take the initiative to attack Jinzhou when I ask Duke Song for orders!"

"What?" Xu's face changed color, "Prince, it's too dangerous. You, you can't take risks!"

Zhu Di reached out and blocked his wife's neck, saying in her ear: "There must be risks in doing big things. I, Zhu Di, will never let Lan Yu and others underestimate you!"

King Yan showed his domineering aura, and he was going to take on all the burden of this battle!
