Ming Dynasty: At the beginning of the game, Lao Zhu resigned and retired.

But human hearts have always been fickle.

Even if the truth is exposed and the face is torn apart, so what?

Some of them felt uneasy and stopped taking action, but others simply gave up.

Since you, Zhu Yuanzhang, know that this matter hurts the interests of the families behind us, why can't you give in?

Shouldn't the emperor 'govern the world together with the scholar-officials'?

Why do your Zhu family get all the benefits of the world?

Since you, Zhu Yuanzhang, are unwilling to give out the benefits, then fine, we can just take them ourselves.

Can you kill all the people in the world?

In the eyes of these people, they represent everyone in the world.

If you harm their interests, you will naturally be competing with the people of the world for profit.

Even though it's overbearing and unreasonable, people just think so. What can you do?

Zhu Yuanzhang’s answer was, kill!

For a moment, the world was shocked!

Hu Weiyong, sitting in the study of the Hu Mansion, felt his scalp tingling as he looked at the words written on the paper in front of him.

"On the 17th day of the twelfth lunar month, the Suzhou Prefecture garrisoned the Qianhu Division, and all officials from the Qianhu Division onwards were beheaded. Soldiers beheaded 170 people, and implicated 2,309 family members of the criminals."

'On the 19th day of the twelfth lunar month, the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau and the six major textile families in Jiangnan were confiscated and their families were exterminated, implicated more than 10,000 people.'

'On the 21st day of the twelfth lunar month, 47 officials including the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and the Director of the Ministry of Revenue's Accounting and Accounting Department were executed on the execution ground. Their property was confiscated and their families were exiled.'

'On the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, Jinyiwei Commander Mao Xiang, Commander-in-Chief Zhang Liangyu and other high-ranking Jinyiwei officials were dismissed from their posts as a warning to others. Jinyiwei Commander-in-Chief Jiang Lin was appointed as the former Commander-in-Chief!'

……

What is recorded on the paper are just some of the major events that have happened recently.

But just in the past half month, thousands of people have been executed and tens of thousands have been exiled.

It can be said that in the entire Ming Dynasty, one out of every three thousand people was involved. How terrifying is this.

Not to mention that those who were caught this time were officials and local tyrants.

It can be said that this operation of confiscation of property alone filled the Ming Dynasty’s treasury and Zhu Yuanzhang’s private treasury.

Hu Weiyong did not inquire about the specific amount, but just thinking about the wealth accumulated by the Jiangnan Weaving House and the six major textile families in Jiangnan, he knew that Zhu Yuanzhang made a fortune this time.

But Hu Weiyong didn't care about these.

What shocked him was that Zhu Yuanzhang was indeed a murderous guy.

It’s really a killing spree!

Mr. Hu did not think there was anything wrong with Zhu Yuanzhang killing those who were suspected of rebellion.

After all, in today's era, this is a fatal move that will lead to certain death.

If your rebellion succeeds, then everything will be over. Whether you become the emperor or a loyal minister, your family will make a lot of money anyway.

But if the rebellion fails, or as is the case now, it is discovered just at the beginning, then there will naturally be a price to pay.

Therefore, even if these people were directly exterminated by Zhu Yuanzhang, Master Hu thought it was normal.

That's the rule!

But for some people among them, it was not because of rebellion.

At least the weaving family in Jiangnan would never be involved in the rebellion.

It is certain that these people commit crimes and bully men and women in the local area.

It was only natural that he colluded with the eunuch of the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau to commit fraud and deceive his superiors and subordinates.

To put it bluntly, this is a group of money scammers, and their goal from beginning to end is money.

rebel?

For them, such earth-shaking events will neither increase their profits nor bring them huge troubles and disasters. It would be strange if they would easily get involved in it.

Therefore, the reason why Zhu Yuanzhang confiscated the property and exterminated the clans of these families like hunting rabbits in the grass was simply because the pigs were fat and it was time to slaughter them.

The Liu family was one of the six great manufacturing families in Jiangnan. The wealth accumulated over the years by the family was coveted by Zhu Yuanzhang.

It was precisely because Master Hu saw this that he broke out in a cold sweat!

Because Zhu Yuanzhang did not suppress his desires at all, he regarded the world as his own place of authority.

When he feels that something is beneficial to his Zhu family, no matter how outrageous or criticized it is, he will just do it.

He didn't care about any rules or reputation at all.

This book was recently updated on ##六@@九@@书@@吧!! Update!

It is precisely because of this that Mr. Hu felt that his choice to leave the Ming Dynasty was the right one.

After all, this world belongs to the Zhu family. It would be too risky to put the lives of oneself and the entire Hu family on the temperament and emotions of Zhu Yuanzhang and his descendants.

Let’s go, go far away!

Thinking of this, Master Hu sighed silently, then closed his eyes, and his mind fell into the magical space bound to his soul.

The space at this moment is no longer what it used to be.

Not to mention the vast fields of mature wheat and rice seeds, just the large patch of lush vegetable fields in the corner is enough to astonish you.

As soon as Master Hu had a thought in his mind, countless mature grains, vegetables, fruits, and melons broke away from the land as if controlled by an invisible hand, and then formed a long dragon and went straight to the "core" in the middle.

When the long dragon reached the house in the middle and was about to submerge the thatched cottage, a crack suddenly appeared in the space.

This long dragon of golden and emerald green, seeing the opening appear, rushed in without any hesitation like a young swallow flying into an arms.

On a light screen that only Master Hu could see, there was an inventory list with many categories and quantities marked on it. The storage quantity behind each category was rising rapidly like a revolving lantern.

Seeing the grains of rice being harvested, Master Hu nodded with satisfaction.

Well, that’s right!

With such food, vegetables, fruits and melons in hand, at least the family will never be short of food at any time.

Until this era, Mr. Hu would never realize how important food is.

In my previous life, as long as I had some money in my pocket, I could have enough to eat, and if I spent more, I could taste all kinds of delicious food.

But in this era, having money does not necessarily mean you can have enough to eat.

This is also the reason why every household has to store food, and they will not be satisfied unless they have stored enough food to feed the whole family for more than half a year.

Who knows when something might happen that causes food prices to skyrocket or the harvest to fail?

The truth is that what is in heaven and on earth is not as good as what you have at home is understood by even ordinary farmers.

As for Master Hu, he was just more prepared and wanted to take care of more people.
