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

They know exactly how the landlords and old fortunes in the village behave in their daily lives.

Ask them to fight wars and do some technical work, they may not be able to do it.

But it's really not a difficult task for the common people just to take care of the slaves farming the land and watch a warehouse.

And more importantly, this was led by His Royal Highness Taisun.

For His Highness the Grandson, the military households admired him from the bottom of their hearts, and under the influence of the military households, the peasant households also became more fond of His Highness the Grandson.

On the day of recruiting workers, the major recruitment sites were almost overcrowded.

There is only so little land in the family, and the grain grown is paid for rent, which is at most enough for the family to eat.

Except for the seeds planted in the spring of the next year, there is nothing left at all, let alone selling them for money.

If there are seven or eight people in the family, let alone saving money, they will not even be able to eat enough.

Now that there is an opportunity to make a lot of money easily, military households and ordinary people will naturally not give up.

As for leaving their hometown or something, they don't care at all, nothing is as important as money and feeding the family.

In just three days, the major registration points have recruited more than 40 people.

For migrant workers, not everyone can go, and Zhu Zhangui has strict requirements.

Not for those who are too old, not for those who are too young, and not for those who are sick.

After all, you have to cross the ocean, and those with physical illnesses can't stand it at all.

"How could there be so many people? They couldn't be forced by the people below!"

In Shang's study.

Yang Shiqi and the elders looked at the report in their hands and frowned.

Yang Shiqi felt that this data was a bit fake, and suspected that the following Chamber of Commerce personnel, in order to complete the quota, used the name of the imperial court to forcibly recruit the strong men.

Zhu Pangpang also frowned.

If this is the case, my son's chamber of commerce will be cleaned up.

It's only been a while since such a problem has arisen. If we don't manage it properly, there may be big troubles in the future.

In fact, Zhu Zhangui thought so at the beginning, thinking that it was the people below who were forced to recruit in his name for credit.

Homeland is hard to leave.

This is the belief in the bones of the Han people.

Just like in a famine year, if many victims were not about to starve to death, they would not leave their hometowns and flee to other places.

For this reason, he planned to ask someone to find out who came up with this idea.

If found out, they will definitely be severely punished.

But just when he was about to send someone to investigate, Hu Yu's words awakened Zhu Zhangui.

While waiting for Ji Gang, Hu Yu who was following him boldly said something.

"Your Highness, this servant should intervene!"

"The reason why you think this data is false is because you have never been short of money, and you have lived a life of luxury."

"But the common people are different from the military households. Even if it is not a famine year, it is a very luxurious thing for them to have enough food, let alone save money."

"The treatment we offer is nothing to the rich and powerful, but to ordinary people and military households, it is simply giving them money."

"If this matter is placed on the servant girl, the servant girl will sign up without hesitation."

"As far as the work you asked to go on, for the common people, this is not going to work, it is simply going to be a master and lie down to collect money. And it also includes food, accommodation, round-trip transportation, 800 years I can’t come across such a good thing, wouldn’t I be a fool if I don’t go here.”

Thinking of what Hu Yu said at that time, Zhu Zhangui also had a wry smile in his heart.

I have too many good days, and I have forgotten the hard work and poverty in my previous life.

If someone gave him this kind of treatment in the previous life, and it was guaranteed by the state, he would squeeze his head and join it.

Looking up at Zhu Pangpang and the others who were still frowning and thinking, Zhu Zhangui explained for them.

"This number is true, and the recruitment effect was stopped in time. Otherwise, according to the time we gave at the beginning, this number will at least double!"

Yang Shiqi retorted in disbelief.

"How is it possible, this is traveling thousands of miles to another place, and you have to take care of so many people's land and granaries,..."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhu Zhangui reached out and stopped him.

"Scholar Yang, the reason why you think this way is because you are well fed, clothed and warm, you are not short of money, and no one in your family starved to death in a disaster year!"

"If you have experienced this kind of life, let alone leave your hometown, as long as you have the backing of the imperial court, you dare to do murder and arson."

Yang Shiqi was stunned.

Zhu Pangpang and the other elders of the Six Departments were also thoughtful.

"You guys!"

Zhu Zhangui reached out and nodded to the few people who fell into silence.

"You have been high and high for too long. When you think about problems, you will subconsciously think about them as your own."

"But this is just your thinking, not what ordinary people think, think and need."

Standing up, Zhu Zhangui spoke earnestly to the elders at the top of the Ming court.

"If you have time, go down to the people, take a look and ask. As an important minister of the court, you don't even know what the common people think or need. What kind of officials are you!"

"There are sages and sages who say, establish a heart for the world, establish a life for the living and the people, inherit the knowledge of the past saints, and create peace for all generations."

"You have studied the knowledge of saints all your life, and you can't even understand the thoughts of ordinary people. If I say something ugly, have you read all this knowledge into the stomach of a dog?"

"Actually, you are not the only ones. When you go down to the county magistrate and the first-rank officials, when you think about problems, you really think about the common people."

"Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. You guys know the meaning of this sentence better than I do. Think about it carefully. Later, I will propose to the emperor to conduct a census. If the requirements are not met, I don't think you are an official." If you do it, you will not only live up to the words of the sage, but also harm others, yourself, and even the people.”

"Like...it's too similar!"

After several important officials left, Zhu Pangpang looked at Zhu Zhangui who was fanning vigorously, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Like who?"

Zhu Zhangui asked casually.

"Your great grandfather!"

"The tone and demeanor you spoke just now are exactly the same as your great-grandfather."

"Didn't you see that Yang Shiqi's hands are shaking? They are very afraid of your grandfather."

"That's why they were scared just now. If I said this, it would probably go in the left ear and out the right ear!"

Zhu Zhangui felt amused and curious at the same time.

Many people, including the old man, say that he sometimes resembles Zhu Yuanzhang.

Especially when thinking about the common people, if he hadn't looked at Zhu Zhangui's face, the old man would have thought it was his father standing in front of him and talking to him.

"Oh, what's the use of it? My great-grandfather couldn't scare them when he was alive. I'm a young man, and I can calm them down for a while at most. When they figure it out later, they should probably think about how to replace me." Lost."

"After all, I have zero tolerance for corruption and being an official. My great-grandfather and grandpa have already made their lives terrified. If another one like me appears, they will not be able to survive!"

"There is also the plan that the sun never sets. They agreed to it because it can bring them benefits. I will write what is written in the history books."

"Father, I can tell you this, in the future history books, I will definitely be no better than King Zhou Yang Guang!"

Zhu Zhangui saw it very clearly.

Although the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty praised him, according to the survey of Jin Yiwei Ji Gang, at least half of the civil official group did not want him to inherit the throne.

Since Zhu Zhanji came back to get married, many people secretly contacted Zhu Zhanji, hoping that he could stand up and grab it.

There are also many people who secretly support the second uncle Zhu Gaoxu.

In the thinking of those people, as long as Zhu Zhangui, a ruthless man, can be pushed down, anyone can be the emperor.

among high-level officials.

Among the six ministers, except for Xia Yuanji and Lu Xin, the minister of rites cultivated by himself, the others are a little bit against Zhu Zhangui in their hearts.

Especially Yang Shiqi, don't greet Zhu Zhangui politely when he sees each other. In fact, he doesn't think very well of Zhu Zhangui secretly.

On the contrary, he admired Zhu Zhanji very much, and often regretted Zhu Zhanji's identity.

If it wasn't for this old man's loyalty to Zhu Pangpang, Zhu Zhangui would have sent him to the local area long ago based on this old man's behavior.

But this guy won't be able to work for a long time. It means that Qian has finished his experience below, and he can be transferred to the Ministry of War after he has settled down with the chieftain of Yunnan and Guizhou.

At that time, after a few years of training, Zhu Zhangui plans to kick out Yang Shiqi, an old man.

Zhu Pangpang opened his mouth, wanting to say something to persuade his son, but finally shook his head.

This kind of thing is inevitable.

Don't talk about Zhu Zhangui, even he, the prince, is dissatisfied by many people in the court.

Isn't he good enough?

Indeed, compared to his uncle, he did a little worse.

But among the princes in history, Zhu Pangpang thought that there were not many princes who could compare with him.

But if you don't like it, you don't like it.

In Zhu Pangpang's mind, maybe he still has some shortcomings.

Zhu Pangpang could also see that his son was dissatisfied with many officials in the court.

He even suspected that if Zhu Zhangui ascended the throne in the future, at least half of the civil servants in the Manchu Dynasty would probably be replaced.

Including San Yang whom he admired.

He can also see Sanyang's attitude towards Zhu Zhangui clearly.

Yang Rong from San Yangzhong has a very good feeling for Zhu Zhangui, and Yang Pu remains neutral, neither supporting nor opposing.

Yang Shiqi, on the other hand, is not optimistic about Zhu Zhangui.

Zhu Pangpang speculated that it might be his son's suppression of Confucianism that made Yang Shiqi, a Confucian disciple, feel disgusted with Zhu Zhangui.

He also thought about matching the two parties well, so that the two parties could become one and work together.

As a result, every time he talked about this matter, Zhu Zhangui would directly find a topic to change.

Yang Shiqi just smiled and listened, but he didn't know if he listened or not.

The upsurge of part-time jobs has been set off among the people, and investment is also proceeding slowly.

The imperial court's plan that the sun never sets did not progress as well as Zhu Zhangui imagined.

Many ministers and noble families are skeptical about this.

The royal family turned their faces and refused to recognize anyone, and they did too many things that reneged on accounts, which made them doubt the credibility of the royal family.

Although the income statement given by the imperial court looked tempting, it was just a guess after all, and it was still unknown how much money he could really get.

If they really put all their wealth into it, and the immigration plan fails, the old Zhu's family will turn their faces and deny them, and they will have no other choice but to rebel.

According to Lao He's statistics, there are less than 1/10 people in the entire imperial court. I believe that the imperial court chose to invest all of them.

The remaining 5 adults choose to invest a little and try the water first.

As for the remaining 4%, stay on the sidelines and check other people's situation first, or some directly and explicitly refuse.

"Your Highness, do you want this old servant to talk to them again?"

In Shang's study room, Lao He looked at Zhu Zhangui who had a bad face, and suggested in a low voice.

"Oh, what are you talking about!"

Zhu Zhangui sneered.

"They don't want to make this money, and I'm too happy to be happy."

"Sure enough, no one cares about the free gifts. Go back and order to stop buying shares tomorrow, and announce to the public that without my permission, no shares will be sold in the future!"
