Chapter 252 Lao Zhu asks for advice!

He couldn't help but think of Fengyang!

Previously, he had always wanted to build Fengyang into the capital of China, relocated wealthy businessmen, and provided many policies, but what was the result?

This time I almost made him angry to death.

After Hu Guoyong went to investigate, he still felt uneasy, so he asked the Arch Guard to investigate secretly. It was better not to investigate, but this investigation almost made him angry to death.

Rich businessmen ran and walked, and Zhongdu turned into a city of beggars!

There is no prosperity at all, but a state of abjection.

Zhu Jun's words inspired him.

Maybe he was wrong before. Designating Fengyang as the central capital is not enough. Without corresponding measures and policies, there will naturally be no way to develop there!

Empress Ma also understands state affairs. Although she doesn't ask about it on weekdays, she was very happy when she heard what Zhu Jun said was reasonable and well-founded.

But she didn't speak, she just laughed.

Xu Miaojin didn't seem to understand, but after hearing what Zhu Jun said so plausibly, she thought to herself, "I'm crazy too. He is actually teaching his father how to govern people's livelihood!"

Tang Zhongling already felt that Zhu Jun had a gap in his chest, but when he heard his long speech, he was even more beautiful, "This is not a crazy king, this is clearly a wise king, a capable king!"

Avalokitesvara had followed his elder brother in the past and was very insightful. Zhu Jun's words went from simple to profound and were sobering.

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was silent, Zhu Jun said: "In short, I summarized it, focus on the big things and put them down, control the direction, have rules for doing things, and have prospects for the future.

Just like you said, you want to unify the world, but this unification of the world is too general!

Will it take three days to rule the world, or five years?

What are you doing this year and what are you going to do next year?

Whether it is recruiting talents, accumulating food, or training troops, there must be a number.

Rather than saying, I feel that today I have enough food to support a war, and I feel that I have enough troops, so I will fight.

Defeat before fighting.

The eldest brother said that if Daye raises troops, then we should be prepared for the worst, one against two, or even one against three.

This is extremely stressful for the great cause!"

"You kid, you are preaching to us!" Zhu Yuanzhang snorted, but he was really unsure. The situation in the three-pointed world has been stabilized so far.

It's really not that simple to fight.

He looked at Zhu Jun and thought, could it be that the boss used Lao Liu's mouth to admonish him with these words?

He was planning in his mind to raise an army next year, but now... after Zhu Jun said this, he felt a little unsure.

"I can only talk on paper!" Zhu Jun smiled.

"You know it well!" Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to say more on this matter. After all, it wouldn't sound good to others. If Xu Miaojin and others were not strict with their words, something else might happen.

"What you just said about managing people's livelihood makes a lot of sense!" Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Does Fengyang still remember it?"

"Of course, that's our hometown!"

"Hey, there was a disaster there. Although the people were not displaced, their lives were difficult.

The wealthy businessmen we moved there before also took advantage of the chaos and fled...and took refuge, and they can't be found again."

He couldn't say that these wealthy businessmen deliberately escaped with beggars, that would be embarrassing, "Zhongdu is under construction again, and the construction of Zhongdu is nearing completion.

If it were you, can you guarantee that the people's livelihood in Fengyang will be restored under the premise that the Central Capital is completed? The prerequisite is that no corvee will be imposed!"

Empress Ma exclaimed, "We don't have to collect corvees, we have to ensure the completion of the Central Capital, and we have to restore the people's livelihood in Fengyang?

Aren’t you making things difficult for Lao Liu?”

Xu Miaojin and the others were also shocked. This test was too difficult.

"Since it's a teaching test, there will naturally be some problems. Otherwise, what's the point of teaching?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked calmly: "We want to see what you have learned from the boss these days!"

Zhu Jun thought for a moment and thought, it seems that the situation in Zhongdu is very bad, otherwise Lao Zhu would not come over to ask him.

Many of the former refugees in the capital were from Fengyang. Can you believe it?

That was Zhongdu, the emperor's hometown.

It is obvious to all how kind Lao Zhu is to his fellow villagers, but even so, there are still victims from Fengyang running over to beg for their lives.

Coupled with some information he knew, he said: "Zhongdu is less than 400 miles away from Yingtian. It is too close. If we heavily allocate resources, it will make people confused about where the capital is.

If it were me, I would definitely come to the capital and seek a living at the feet of the emperor.

Dad, you are so wise and you make decisions for the people, everyone must be running for this!"

This flattery made Zhu Yuanzhang very happy. If he were an ordinary person, he would not be so happy, but his sixth child is the most honest and will not lie, so it must be the truth.

He couldn't help but feel happy, but he said: "Stop flattering and talk about the important points!"

"Oh!" Zhu Jun curled his lips. He finally flattered you, but he didn't appreciate it. "Whoever is at the feet of the Holy Emperor knows how to choose.

Fengyang is a good place with well-developed waterways, but there is no heavy industry.

You did move the wealthy businessmen there, but you did not move their properties there. It would be very easy for them to escape.

And they don't have to pay a big price, but if their property is gone and they want to escape again, they have to weigh the price.

I actually don’t understand that Zhongdu has developed into such a mess, even if it’s not as good as Yingtian, it won’t be like this!”

Zhu Yuanzhang lost face, "I asked you to talk about the plan, but I didn't ask you to criticize the policy. If you talk nonsense again, be careful I'll beat you up!"

Zhu Jun did not continue teasing, but said: "If you want to retain businessmen, you must know what they want.

If they want land, then give it to them. If they want tax exemption, then give it to them.

Even if they want a name, it’s not impossible!”

"Are we going to curry favor with them?" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened, "Did Shen Jiazi tell you this?"

"Listen to what I have to say, okay!" Zhu Jun interrupted him dissatisfied, "The story of those people in Fengyang running away as beggars has long been spread, so dad, you can't use force.

Even if they dare not leave because of your majesty, it is not a long-term solution after all.

Who doesn't like their hometown?

It’s not like life is unbearable. Who can bear the feeling of leaving home?”

Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, but what Zhu Jun said was not unreasonable, and he was speechless for a moment.

Empress Ma also patted him on the back repeatedly and said, "You are a person who tests your teachings. Why are you still angry? Dai Yuanli said you can't be angry. Why don't you have a long memory?"

As she said this, she winked at Zhu Jun and said, "This is your father, please speak softly!"
