I, the grandson of the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty, earned 100 million taels at the beginning

"Speak your mind!"

There is a reason why Zhu Zhangui proposed this idea. With the old man's understanding of this grandson, he will never let it go.

"Grandpa, our original idea was to arrange soldiers or stewards to control the slaves to farm the land after occupying the Three Kingdoms, so as to obtain food income."

The old man nodded, that was indeed what they discussed at the beginning.

"Why... you've changed your mind now!"

Zhu Zhangui nodded.

"Yes, I think this approach is a bit inappropriate."

"If soldiers are sent, at least 10 to 50 soldiers must be left on each farm. The entire Ganges Plain has a huge land."

"If it is distributed in this way, we will have at least tens of thousands of troops to fill it."

"Isn't it too wasteful to send tens of thousands of troops capable of conscripting and fighting to the fields?"

"If you add the guards in the various city areas, we will send at least 10 troops to station in the entire Asan area!"

"More importantly, these products have no interest in them, and they don't put much thought into them. At most, they follow orders. After all, how many things can be produced has nothing to do with them."

"The management of Huangzhuang is the best example. What has Huangzhuang been like in the past few years? I believe you know, grandpa."

The old man frowned.

This is indeed a problem.

Although the Ming army has millions of people, except for the defenses and guards in various places, the real army that can be mobilized is about 60 to [-].

In the future, if 10,000+ troops are thrown into the Ganges Plain, it will really be a waste.

And it's not even a year or two.

If you want to completely control the Asan area, it will take at least ten years.

10,000+ troops have been left here for more than ten years, and even the most elite troops are abolished.

Even sending troops to change defenses would consume a huge amount of money.

If something goes wrong in the middle, the Ming Dynasty will definitely be in turmoil.

The old man is also very clear about the Huangzhuang problem that Zhu Zhangui mentioned.

Embezzling money, oppressing farmers, deceiving superiors and inferiors, all kinds of problems are countless.

"Tell me what you think!"

The old man's expression became serious.

Zhu Zhangui handed the shovel to his wife next to him, reached out and picked up the stick to draw on the sand next to him.

"My idea is this, recruit young adults from Daming to come to Ah San, and they will be responsible for managing the warehouse and watching Ah San's slaves farming."

"In order to mobilize their enthusiasm, we will give them wages and work for 5 years!"

"After five years, we will send him home for free. Of course, if he wants to stay and continue to work, we welcome him even more, and he can even take root here in the Three Kingdoms."

"For example, a young man came to A Sanguo to manage the warehouse and guard the slaves for farming. We give him wages and salaries based on his overall income."

"Like this."

Zhu Jungui wrote 1 on the first position of the grid drawn on the beach.

"He is in charge of 100 mu of land. We set a minimum harvest for these lands. As long as he can achieve this minimum harvest, the court will give him a salary of 100 taels of silver every year."

"In addition, for every catty of extra grain produced, we will reward him with more money, or he can ask for grain!"

"In this way, with the encouragement of money, they will take good care of the land and supervise the slaves."

"With a little more food, he can make a little more money."

After saying this, Zhu Zhangui added another sentence.

"I'm just making an analogy. How much money will be paid to them in the future will have to be calculated by the household department and the court."

"But my suggestion is that the income should be double or even three times higher than that of Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, they can survive in the mainland. Why do they travel here? The common people are not fools, and there is no great temptation. They don't want to leave their homes."

"In this way, our troops can be drawn out when they are free. The recruited young and strong, 100 or hundreds of people can be arranged together, and they can also be used as militia."

"They don't need to work, they just need to keep an eye on the warehouse, take care of the slaves, and hand in the food regularly."

"You can let them train in normal times, so that they have a certain combat power and suppress the slave rebellion!"

Listening to Zhu Zhangui's plan, the old man fell into deep thought.

While the old man was contemplating, Zhu Zhangui proposed a bigger blockbuster.

A tree trunk was drawn next to the form, and Zhu Zhangui asked the old man.

"Grandpa, have you ever heard a word?"

The old man looked up at Zhu Zhangui.

Zhu Zhangui watched the old man and said slowly.

"A dynasty of flowing water, an aristocratic family of iron!"

The old man narrowed his eyes slightly.

Of course he had heard that.

The dynasties in the world are reincarnated, and as long as those big families do not encounter foreign enemies, they are almost not in great danger.

"Grandpa, have you ever wondered why the dynasty that was supposed to be united fell under the education of the monarch and his father and son?"

"The explanation for this in the history books is natural disasters and man-made disasters, some say that the emperor has no way, and some say that he has lost the hearts and minds of the people!"

Zhu Zhangui looked at the old man.

"But in my opinion, all of this is just an excuse. The so-called loss of people's hearts and minds, apart from a small reason for the emperor, the biggest reason is that the people of this country and the royal family can no longer bring great benefits to the officials and people all over the world. benefit."

"A dynasty that can't benefit officials and people, why not destroy it? Continue to harm people."

"But if the royal family can bring countless benefits to the official family, it can also bring countless benefits to the common people."

"No matter how stupid the emperor of this dynasty is, as long as he can guarantee these interests, the people and officials under him will still support him without hesitation."

"Because once the dynasty that brought them benefits falls, they can't guarantee that the next dynasty will also give them these things."

"So even if the royal family doesn't work hard, the family of officials below and the common people will work hard to repair this rotten ship, so that it can continue to take everyone forward!"

Zhu Zhangui's words made the old man freeze in place, staring straight at Zhu Zhangui.

After drawing the tree trunk on the beach, Zhu Zhangui looked at the old man who was staring at him and asked a question.

"If the Yuan Dynasty fed my great-grandfather's family well, earned a few taels of silver every month, and all the children in the family went to school, would my great-grandfather rebel?"

The old man shook his head directly.

"If the Yuan Dynasty was really so good back then, we might be farming in our hometown in Fengyang now!"

"It's not over!"

Zhu Zhangui clapped his hands.

"The reason why grandpa rebelled was not because the family couldn't finish their meal and everyone starved to death."

"A dynasty can't even guarantee the basic living needs of the people. Why should people obey your orders and obey your rule? Is it because of the boastful status of the son of God?"

Zhu Zhangui stood up and said loudly.

"It's actually very simple for the people of the world to always support our Ming Dynasty."

"Let them be fed, clothed warmly, and not bullied."

"As long as our old Zhu family can do these three things and continue, our Zhu family dynasty will continue to pass on!"

"Even if there is no need for the royal family one day, the common people will still remember the goodness of Lao Zhu's family, because we are the ones who feed them well, wear clothes, not be bullied, and live a perfect life."

"As long as our Zhu family does all this, even if a fool sits on the throne, the common people will support and protect this fool, and continue to pass on this dynasty."

"Because only if this dynasty continues to pass on, they can guarantee everything at present."

The old man was deeply shocked by these words.

He didn't expect that this grandson, who had just grown up, could analyze the foundation of a country so thoroughly.

Yes.

How innocent and kind the people are.

As long as they can eat enough, wear warm clothes, not be bullied, their children can go to school, and the elderly can be cared for, they will wholeheartedly obey the orders of the country and support the country.

What kind of benevolent and righteous king, the famous master of the world, is actually bullshit.

For the common people, if you can't do this simple question, it's useless for you to be the reincarnation of a saint.

As long as all this can be done, the common people don't really care about the emperor's personal morality.

Taking a deep breath slowly, the old man looked at Zhu Zhangui with relief.

Although this kid has a reckless personality and is just as aggressive and murderous as himself, he will definitely be a good emperor in the future.

"Tell me about your plan!"

The old man picked up his robe and squatted beside the tree trunk painted by Zhu Zhangui, listening to him continue talking.

Zhu Zhangui squatted on the other side, pointing to the tree trunk he had drawn to preach.

"What the people want is very simple. In fact, what the officials of the aristocratic family want is also very simple. It is nothing more than the word benefit!"

"But where do they get their benefits, you must be very clear, Grandpa!"

The old man sneered.

"It's nothing more than embezzlement of state money and occupation of fields."

"Didn't all these guys in history do it like this? The dynasties have been torn apart just like this!"

Zhu Zhangui nodded in agreement.

"The land is limited. Once it reaches saturation and the people cannot survive, they will raise the flag of rebellion."

"It has been like this from ancient times to the present, and it has almost become an unsolvable problem!"

The old man sighed helplessly.

Almost every dynasty knows this reason, but after so many years, no one has come up with a solution.

"Is there anything you can do?"

The old man looked at Zhu Zhangui and asked expectantly.

Zhu Zhangui smiled wryly.

The old man thinks too highly of him. No matter how many great talents in ancient and modern times have not solved this problem, what can he do when he is young?

The method he thought of was nothing more than postponing the outbreak of conflicts.

"Grandpa, I want to solve it, but I also need to have that ability. But I have an idea, which can delay the outbreak of this conflict!"

The old man sighed when he heard the words, and then looked at Zhu Zhangui expectantly.

You can push it back.

As mentioned earlier, neither of them thought about making the Zhu family dynasty last forever, they just tried their best to postpone the time of destruction.

"My idea is this, since they want benefits, then we will give them benefits, and tie them to the chariot of our old Zhu family like the common people."

"Even if we can't win and win, and lose and lose, we still have to let them suffer severe injuries because of the collapse of our dynasty."

"With this kind of consequences, when the dynasty encounters difficulties, they will not try their best to help us because of these interests, and they will not stand by and let the dynasty fall like the previous dynasty."

The old man's eyes lit up, he sat on the beach, took out a small notebook and took notes while nodding.

"My idea is to focus on the royal family, establish the Great Ming Colonial Chamber of Commerce, and bring in all these officials, noble families and landlords."

Zhu Zhangui wrote a Zhu character at the position of the trunk.

"Our royal family becomes the trunk of this great tree of interests."

Then on the trunk and branches, write officials, nobles, aristocratic families, and small landlords.

"Let the small landlords of the officials, noble families, become the trunk and branches of the big tree of benefit, and the common people become the leaves of the big tree of benefit!"

After writing this, Zhu Zhangui threw the stick aside and patted the sand on his hands, explaining to the old man.
