[Ming] Wuzong's Chronicle of Rebirth

Chapter 81 The 5th Year of Hongzhi

Zhang Fuhua became embarrassed on the spot. After all, he was the person he introduced. Although he was white, he regarded him as a close friend.Seeing being made things difficult now, Zhang Fuhua naturally couldn't be happy.

"It's neither the guiding principle of the court nor the rule of the righteousness. It's difficult for a saint to do. Although Zhenggang has the heart, he is powerless. It's better to manage his original intention in the place where he lives. This is called Zhenggang." Seeing that he is neither humble nor arrogant, Zhu Houzhao also He didn't show off his talent and learning, and he didn't need to be in a hurry to block Du Ruo. He just talked about the matter, and he immediately liked it. (The word Gang also means mountain)

"Master Zhang said that it is up to you to change rice into mulberry. I wonder what talents you have to make Master Zhang praise you so much." This is the best compliment Zhang Fuhua can give to Yang Zhenggang.Yang Zhenggang was a white man, and was recommended by a prefect. If he hadn't really been capable, Zhang Fuhua's reputation in the literary world would have been lost in his life. "Come, give Mr. Yang a seat."

Dressed in white clothes and sitting floating, Yang Zhenggang did look a bit superficial, Du Ruo secretly slandered.Du Ruo naturally knew that it was not appropriate to have a bad relationship with others, but he really couldn't understand Yang Zhenggang's confident expression.It only takes one step for Zhu Houzhao to die. Yang Zhenggang can gamble on this step, but Du Ruo really can't gamble on this one step.

"I don't have much talent, it's just some tricks, it's hard to be elegant." Is this arrogance?Zhu Houzhao thought that he was a practical person, but Yang Zhenggang also started to play the trick of self-deprecating literati, and the little favorability he had before was wiped out.

Du Ruo said with a smile: "I only ask you five questions, if you can answer them well, I will count you as talented." At this time, Zhang Fuhua didn't worry anymore, he naturally knew his friend's ability, as long as this little The father-in-law asked some inconspicuous questions without lowering his status, and Yang Zhenggang would definitely be able to answer them according to his ability.

"Young master, please ask me." Yang Zhenggang was also a little arrogant. He thought that he was far away from the rivers and lakes, so he must be able to see through the self-obsessed problems of those people in the temple. He would have thought of meeting someone from the future like Du Ruo.

I saw Du Ruo choked on a smirk, and asked slowly: "I only want to ask you a few small questions, all of which are related to changing rice into mulberry. One, let me ask you, how much are the fields and mulberry fields in Zhejiang?" Two, I want to ask you about the population of Zhejiang. These two questions are the most basic, and if you can’t answer them, you should be ashamed.” If Du Ruo provoked like this, Yang Zhenggang was about to retort, and Du Ruo continued to say: "Don't worry, wait until I finish asking other questions."

Seeing the pen, ink, paper and inkstone that Zhu Houzhao used to write letters beside, Du Ruo took a blank piece of paper and wrote in a fluttering voice: "How many people in the world can buy the silk produced in Zhejiang, how much rice does Zhejiang use in a year, and sea merchants in a year?" How much rice can I give to Zhejiang?" Du Ruo's handwriting is different from Zhu Houzhao's. Zhu Houzhao has practiced handwriting for two generations, and his handwriting is as gentle and elegant as his own, but Du Ruo's writing is flamboyant. It's here.

There were only a few words on a piece of white paper, and Du Ruo had only these two sentences, but Yang Zhenggang was stumped.If we talk about these questions, Yang Zhenggang can still answer some questions, such as the first, second, and fifth questions, but they are all calculated by the government over the years.Zhang Fuhua knows how much water is in these data, and Yang Zhenggang knows a little bit more.As the princes, Zhu Houzhao and Du Ruo knew better.

Up to now, the household registration system has basically been useless. Not to mention far away, even Yangjia Village has many domestic slaves of officials surnamed Yang.This is the case for Yang Family Village, let alone other powerful households.There is also the inaction of the officials. Hangzhou is still considered prosperous, and there are countless villages around it. There are only so many officials, so how can they take care of them.Even if they can take care of it, they can push it as soon as they can, and there are not a few people who make up random things.

This is not just asking Yang Zhenggang, even Zhang Fuhua, one of the parents, was overwhelmed by him.Zhu Houzhao naturally knew what Du Ruo was going to ask, but Zhang Fuhua and Yang Zhenggang didn't expect it.Yang Zhenggang thought that he knew everything about astronomy and geography, not to mention everything, and he had just gotten a glimpse of it.No matter what Du Ruo asked, he thought he could answer it.If Du Ruo's question was too tricky, it would be his disrespect, but it's not his fault.

How could he have imagined that such a young man, who seemed to be targeting him inexplicably, could really question him. "Grandpa Guo has a lot of pitfalls in his chest. The grassroots are indeed not talented. Please punish him." It's just that Yang Zhenggang is not an ordinary person who doesn't know or doesn't know, so he is willing to admit punishment.

Zhu Hou took care of Yang Zhenggang who was already in a difficult situation. He signaled Du Ruo not to speak with his eyes, and said with a sigh, "It's not that Du Ruo is making things difficult for you. I want to ask you these things. Regardless of these, there are many other questions. For example, where does the rice come from, and can the supply be guaranteed?"

Suddenly a sense of supreme superiority slowly rose in Zhu Houzhao's heart, this is the ancients.It turns out that it is really different when thinking with modern people.In the past, Zhu Houzhao had been trying to use the thinking of ancient people to deal with these ancient people, but naturally he was defeated like a mountain.Trying to deal with them with modern thinking now is really suppressing IQ.

Of course, this is just Zhu Houzhao's illusion, he just doesn't have to think about dealing with these personnel relations.Without thinking about right and wrong, Zhu Houzhao naturally felt more relaxed, but in fact there was no difference.

These words left the two people present speechless, even Zhang Fuhua, who wanted to defend himself, was speechless.What they learn is self-cultivation, regulating the family, governing the country and the world. Naturally, governing the country with virtue is the foundation of the country.But basic means such as numbers and quantities are indeed what they lack.They have a lot of enthusiasm and noble pursuits for governing the country, but what is the use of noble pursuits alone?Can you not bend your waist for five buckets of rice, but what about ten buckets of rice?Ten buckets of rice won’t do, what about the entire Hangzhou treasury?

Ideals are beautiful, but reality is always cruel.What Zhu Houzhao used to think was how to improve on the original basis, and slowly change the world in the spring wind and rain.Now that he suddenly realized, he realized that he had always put himself in the position of the savior.But in fact, I am just an ordinary person, let him realize the dream of great harmony in the world, even if one day he realizes it, let him realize it.Now Zhu Houzhao's goal is to do his job well.As for those once lofty goals, let him throw them into the wind.

My grandfather once told Zhu Houzhao that Chinese people always think that favors do not respect rules, but the result is that there is no favor and no rules.Zhu Houzhao didn't understand this sentence very much before, and even thought it was wrong at one time, but now he realized that what his grandfather said was the real truth.Governing the country is not what I think, everyone is well-educated, but let everyone have rules first.

So Zhu Houzhao actually put aside all the great talents and strategies of the past, and wanted to tidy up the bureaucracy and come up with a system.As for things like the New World, let's put it aside first.Anyway, it's still early to discover the Pacific Ocean, and everything can still wait.

Because of such thoughts, Zhu Houzhao is not in a hurry to return to the palace this time.I thought about starting from Zhejiang and experimenting here first.After dealing with the matter here, I will go to Quanzhou with Du Ruo.Quanzhou is now the largest port in the East. Zhu Houzhao wants to investigate and see if it can develop into the economic center of the Ming Dynasty.It is a consistent international practice that the political center and the economic center are separated, which does have its advantages. Zhu Houzhao also wants to give it a try, and Quanzhou is his ideal destination.

Zhu Houzhao didn't know where he had diverged from here, and Zhang Fuhua and Yang Zhenggang were still bowing their heads and daring not to speak.Du Ruo knew that Zhu Houzhao was distracted when he looked at the distance in a daze, and he laughed in his heart: "I also deliberately made things difficult for you two, mainly because I am the prince's close servant, and I really disagree with Mr. Yang's actions."

Yang Zhenggang smiled wryly, knowing that what was supposed to come had finally come.He was indeed a little negligent in this matter.His father is a dignified Jinshi, and his mother is the daughter of everyone. Although both his parents are dead and his family is in decline, the education he received when he was a child is still top-notch.He thought he recognized Zhu Houzhao's identity, and asked Yang Erchui to take him in.Naturally, Zhu Houzhao could only be grateful for this place, and he never expected to be planted in the hands of someone like Wang Hui.Now that Du Ruo said this, he naturally had nothing to say.

In this matter, Zhu Houzhao didn't have any complaints. On the contrary, because Yang Zhenggang pointed out Zhu Houzhao's identity and diverted his anger so as not to vent his anger on that child, he had a slight liking for him. "There is no need to mention this matter. I would like to thank Mr. Yang." If it wasn't for him, Yang Erchui would not have taken in such two scarred strangers of unknown origin.

Originally, he thought that he would be blamed, and he might have to be punished if it was serious, but now he let it go lightly. Yang Zhenggang was overjoyed.On the contrary, Du Ruo saw that he couldn't sit still anymore, and gently tickled Zhu Houzhao's chin to signal him.

The action is so obvious that Zhu Houzhao must have seen it.After arriving in this world, Du Ruo has always had a gentle and gentle appearance, contrary to the greasy and possessive image before.Zhu Houzhao always thought it was because he had lived a few years longer and matured, but he thought that after yesterday, Du Ruo suddenly changed back to his original appearance, not at all like before.

From getting up in the morning until now, I have always had a sense of instant vision without taking medicine, so the flirting on the bright side is still a trivial matter, and I have done a lot of eating tofu.Zhu Houzhao didn't want to talk to him anymore. Although he knew that Du Ruo was contemptuously expressing that Yang Zhenggang couldn't sit still like this, but making such an expression in public, Zhu Houzhao wondered if Du Ruo really wanted his image?

Fortunately, the two people present have always had the impression of Du Ruo as an unreasonable Duke, so they were not surprised by Du Ruo's actions.But the two of them are like this, Liu Jin and Du Ruo are familiar.Accompanying Zhu Houzhao for such a trip, I thought it was a fat job, but I thought there would be twists and turns, and Liu Jin felt that he couldn't be more unlucky.

The author has something to say: Well, do you feel that the painting style has changed drastically, and whether there is a divine development? Let everyone complain about the stupid author.
