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

Jiaozhou was the hardest hit by the Yellow River flood this time.

This place is located in a plain, with a large land area and sufficient rainfall. It has been a land of prosperity throughout the ages. Of course, Jiaozhou has the most wealthy businessmen.

It was originally blessed by nature, but this flood did not expect it to be really vulnerable.

Jiaozhou was hit by a disaster, and Zhu Yuanzhang had ordered merchants to donate grain, but some merchants still refused to obey, and even secretly raised the price of grain.

It was already a hard-hit area, but there were still these unscrupulous businessmen, which made things worse. When the news came, Zhu Yuanzhang was furious.

Obsessed with profit, make a fortune for the country!It deserves a thousand cuts!

Zhu Yuanzhang was also relentless, and directly ordered these unscrupulous businessmen to be sent to the frontier. Their wives, concubines, and children were reduced to low-level slaves one by one.

In addition, he also ordered a thorough investigation of the officials who had dealings with these businessmen, and if they were found, they would be imprisoned immediately, removed from their official status, demoted to common people, and never allowed to enter the court as an official again.

"Your Majesty, is the punishment too heavy? Now that the country is employing people, why not give these people a chance to reform themselves and let them atone for their crimes? It's also a way to show His Majesty's grace."

An official bowed his head and said respectfully.

"What nonsense!" Zhu Yuanzhang cursed directly, and slapped the dragon chair angrily, "This Great Ming Dynasty was piled up with the flesh and blood of the founders of the Ming Dynasty. Now that the country has finally stabilized, some people have started to domineering! This is the moth of the dynasty. , is the black sheep, if we don’t get rid of it now, when will it be!”

"Pass it on, whoever dares to lie to others, give and receive in private, and doesn't clean up these bugs, we are the only ones to ask!"

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang made a real move, no one dared to say a word more.

After dealing with these matters, Zhu Yuanzhang only felt physically and mentally exhausted, so he came to see Zhu Xiongying again.

"Grandpa Huang is here?" Zhu Xiongying simply greeted him and continued to work on the matter in hand.

Zhu Yuanzhang was not angry at all.

Grandpa and grandson don't need to pay so much attention. He has stayed in the lifeless, solemn and old-fashioned palace for a long time on weekdays, and he has long been tired of those red tapes. He still hopes to be able to be so harmonious and comfortable.

"How is the business of the shop?" Zhu Yuanzhang sat down naturally, poured tea, and watched Zhu Xiongying weave something with bamboo while drinking.

"Well, it's not bad. I plan to open another rice shop tomorrow."

"Well, medium!" Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, "You have your own opinions and ideas, and Grandpa Huang doesn't have to worry about you, you can handle everything by yourself."

"It's not that powerful." Zhu Xiongying completed the last step, and showed it to Zhu Yuanzhang, which was regarded as the test result.

"Look at how this bamboo basket is made?"

"The technique is a little raw, but it's pretty good." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

"It's the first time I made it up, the aunt next door taught me."

"Well, not bad. Learn more, but you can't develop the habit of only eating." Zhu Yuanzhang took off his boots and stepped on the ground with bare feet.

In the early years, I would punch in the snow with bare arms in the ice and snow, and I didn't lose my effort after becoming the co-lord of the world.

That's why Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't get used to those pampered and spoiled children from rich families. His sons and grandchildren had to practice martial arts from an early age if they had the conditions, which can be regarded as the effect of strengthening their bodies.

Zhu Xiongying put down the bamboo basket and walked over.

Don't persuade him, just go with the old man.

"Grandpa Huang really is still young."

"Of course, don't underestimate your grandfather!" Zhu Yuanzhang raised his chin proudly.

"Grandpa Huang asked you, what do you think about the handling of merchants in Jiaozhou this time?"

Zhu Yuanzhang took a sip of the tea. Although it was cold and a bit bitter, he could still drink it, and he was reluctant to ask his grandson to add it.

"Some ministers still think that our criminal law is too severe this time, and those businessmen just made a small mistake, and it's not something that hurts the world. A little punishment is enough, and we will be scolded bloody!" Zhu Yuanzhang said He also snorted coldly, really felt that those ministers ate too much, and they were against themselves all day long!
Zhu Xiongying had expected that Zhu Yuanzhang would talk about this matter with him.

If it was changed before, Zhu Xiongying really couldn't think about the country's major affairs from the perspective of a ruler like Zhu Yuanzhang, but Zhu Xiongying has also learned a lot over the years.

Zhu Xiongying tidied up his sleeves, and said slowly: "Huaiying thinks that the emperor's grandfather did the right thing this time. The purpose of national legislation is to restrain the people, solve problems, and govern the country more effectively. The law cannot be violated by anyone. Once there is a precedent Leaving people alone by the imperial court will only encourage the arrogance of some people with evil intentions, and it will have the effect of killing everyone."

"Some ministers in the imperial court have lived in Ansheng for too long, and their temper has softened, so they can't listen to what they say." Zhu Xiongying poured tea for the two of them again, "The emperor's grandfather's move is to eliminate harm for the people, naturally able to gain the support of the people.”

"That's right, our grandson is right!" Zhu Yuanzhang drank the tea in one gulp, the herbal tea drank into his stomach, and he felt a chill, "It's my grandson who loves to talk!"

"Being an emperor sometimes has to be ruthless, otherwise, the ministers below will not be shocked. Governing such a big country is not about embroidering. You can govern the country by posing those obscure principles! It's so stupid!" Zhu Yuanzhang disdainfully snorted.

All his life, Zhu Yuanzhang hated those people who only knew to receive the salary of the imperial court every month, but did not benefit the people all over the world. This time, it was true that there were officials and businessmen in Jiaozhou colluding with fish and meat people, which made Zhu Yuanzhang furious.

"Under a full nest, there are no eggs left. The city gate caught fire, which brought disaster to the fish in the pond." Zhu Xiongying rubbed the edge of the teacup with two fingers, "If a country wants to be strong, it must gather the strength of the whole country."

"That's right, it's our grandson Ming's reason!" Zhu Yuanzhang was overjoyed, every time Zhu Xiongying could talk about his heart.

"It's too much, the emperor's grandpa's birthday will be in seven days, Huaiying must prepare a generous gift for the emperor's grandpa."

If Zhu Xiongying didn't mention it, Zhu Yuanzhang himself wouldn't even remember it. Recently, he was so busy going around that he still thought about it, but he didn't expect Zhu Xiongying to remember it all the time.

"Our eldest grandson has a heart, and we don't care about those empty gifts." Although he said so, if Zhu Xiongying gave it to him, Zhu Yuanzhang would naturally treasure it.

Of course Zhu Xiongying would not agree, this gift is still very necessary, and for a super big man like Zhu Yuanzhang, naturally more thought should be paid, this is an excellent opportunity to hug his thigh.

Can't let it go!

"The gift cannot be neglected."

"That's great! Then we'll just wait for the big grandson's congratulatory gift. Don't let us down."

Zhu Xiongying said with a slight smile: "When did the emperor disappoint you?"

"middle!"
