Daming: What abandoned baby?That is the grandson of the old Zhu family!

Seeing the flood in the Yellow River made the whole court sleepless, Zhu Yuanzhang was so anxious that his hair turned white all night, but Zhu Di in the north was very leisurely.

"The north wind blows the ground and the grass breaks, and Hu Tian blows snow in August. Suddenly, like a spring breeze overnight, thousands of trees and pear trees bloom."

Zhu Di dragged the wine glass with one hand and looked into the distance on the stage.

Yao Guangxiao came to the stage, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the capital is already in a state of crisis. The old man even issued an edict requiring every household to pay three shi more grains. It can be seen that there is nothing we can do."

"The old man has been living more and more confused these years." Zhu Di raised his head and drank the wine in his cup, "Isn't this driving ducks to the shelves? Can you hand over the food?"

"That's right, the edict was issued for seven days, but not a single grain of rice was harvested. The old man Long Yan was furious and sent several officials to prison."

"I'm waiting for the old man to find me in desperation, and I'm waiting for you." Zhu Di had a smug smile on his face.

Zhu Di's fief is in the north, which happens to be a fertile and good place, and over the years under Zhu Di's rule, he has made considerable achievements in agriculture, with a bumper harvest every year and a large amount of grain reserves, so he has a bargaining chip with the court.

As long as Zhu Yuanzhang speaks, Zhu Di will put forward conditions accordingly. This is the first step of the plan.

A bird flew over the snow-melted hill and landed on the eaves of a house.

In the yard, Zhu Xiongying had a bad face, obviously angry.

"The emperor's grandfather was wise all his life, why did he get so confused this time!"

Zhu Yuanzhang knew that he had done something wrong this time, and he was really wronged, so he was too embarrassed to talk back, so he could only obediently listen to Zhu Xiongying's "lesson".

After Zhu Xiongying said a few words, he gradually calmed down.

It is really embarrassing for Zhu Yuanzhang to listen to his "teaching" in this small courtyard even though he is the Ninth Five-Year Master. Zhu Xiongying's status is really decent enough.

"Grandpa Huang was in a hurry this time, and he didn't think about things carefully. Didn't he want to see what our great grandson can do!"

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed.

"There must be a way for a car to reach the mountain, and there is a solution for everything." Zhu Xiongying came over and sat on a chair, looking at Zhu Yuanzhang, "Is the emperor willing to listen to me?"

"That's natural! Otherwise, we wouldn't have traveled all the way out of the palace to find you!"

"It's impossible to collect this food from the common people. The common people are now like mud bodhisattvas crossing the river. They can't protect themselves. They can only make a fuss from other places."

"Did Huaiying think of a countermeasure?" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up.

Zhu Xiongying subconsciously emitted a pretentious light: "Borrow."

"Borrow? Looking for someone to borrow food?" Zhu Yuanzhang was puzzled.

In this situation, where in the world can we borrow food?

Our eldest grandson is not joking with himself anymore!
"Yes, borrow." Zhu Xiongying said firmly.

"Where do you borrow it? Do you want to go to the vassal king! How can that be done! Even if you want it, it's not a way to borrow it! The king of our country, if you ask them to hand it over, you have to obediently hand it over to me! This is what they are ministers. Duty!"

Zhu Xiongying sighed helplessly: "Grandpa Huang, if you really want to hear what I have to say, don't be stubborn."

"Good! Good! Say what you say." Zhu Yuanzhang touched his nose embarrassedly.

"This grain should be borrowed from merchants." Zhu Xiongying said, "There must be a lot of grain in the homes of wealthy businessmen and tycoons all over the country. Now is the time for these merchants to show their loyalty."

"Yes! Why didn't I think of that! My grandson is really capable!" Zhu Yuanzhang nodded excitedly.

"No, what I'm talking about is an exchange of equal amounts, not to use the coercion of the imperial court to force those businessmen." Zhu Xiongying pressed the back of Zhu Yuanzhang's hand.

This old man still has the savage temperament of a grassroots bandit in his bones, and he just wants to rob him at every turn!

"The emperor must tell the world that all merchants who voluntarily hand in food will be rewarded by the court. For example, if there are officials in the family, relatives will be promoted to rank, and their children can also participate in the imperial examination."

"If this order continues, if there are results, there will continue to increase the rewards." Zhu Xiongying continued, "If it doesn't work like this, then some tough measures can be taken if necessary, but they must not be forced."

"No, this method won't work!" Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang disagreed at all.

"Isn't this a blatant selling of officials and nobles! What has become of the court like this? Who have we become?" Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily.

"Those businessmen are only looking for profit, and they are just waiting for this time to sit on the ground and raise prices, making a fortune for the country. If the imperial court really does this, isn't it an obvious compromise to those merchants!"

"Emperor Grandpa can't kill a group of people with a single shot. I think that as long as a businessman with a little foresight will not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to reconcile with the court, the court will solve the urgent need, and the businessman will get what he wants. It was supposed to be your wish."

Zhu Xiongying now knows that Zhu Yuanzhang is good at everything, but he is too stubborn and admits death.

"Furthermore, all businessmen in this world who are able to become rich must have some foresight. They are the best at judging the situation. If there is such an opportunity, they will be too late to grab it. They don't have to worry about not being able to receive food. As long as they seize the opportunity this time to find If the imperial court wants status, it will be beneficial to me in the future!"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted, and his attitude was a little loose: "But there is no reason for the court to bow its head!"

"The prosperity of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. There is no cheap thing in this world. Grandpa Huang wants the businessmen of the world to contribute but does not want to benefit others. There is no such reason."

Zhu Yuanzhang choked on Zhu Xiongying's words, and didn't know what to say for a while.

Zhu Xiongying looked like he was sure of winning. He knew that even if Zhu Yuanzhang had no way to agree immediately, he would still listen to him after weighing the pros and cons. After all, he had too much experience before.

"Grandpa Huang, don't worry, go back and think carefully and you will know what to do. Anyway, Huaiying can't force Grandpa Huang, the king of your country."

"You brat, are you mocking me?" Zhu Yuanzhang squinted his eyes and put on a dignified look.

However, in Zhu Xiongying's case, it can be said that the lethality is almost zero.

Zhu Yuanzhang hesitated again and again, but did as Zhu Xiongying said. After all, there is no other way now. This is the second, mainly because every decision Zhu Xiongying made was proved to be a very correct decision, but Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but not agree.

After returning to the palace, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately prevented the issuance of the regulations drawn up by Chen Shan, the Minister of the Ministry of household affairs, which caused quite a stir in the whole country for a while.
