First Minister of Ming Dynasty

Chang Yuchun is such a brave and invincible character who is afraid of his wife, and Lan's treatment is submissive.

　　 On the second day, Chang Yuchun took the initiative to repair the beacon tower along the river.

　　 When Chang Yuchun arrived, he figured it out, dare to say that it was a beacon tower, not the kind of fortress abutments along the Great Wall. It's something similar to a bucket.

　　 was erected with a tall wooden pole, and there was a basket on it. People in it could see the situation across the river and the news on the left and right.

　　 It's just such a rudimentary observation device, unprepared, once it is suddenly killed by the Yuan army, it will easily lose its effect.

　　 Therefore, every other segment, a fortress was built, and soldiers were stationed in it, some one hundred, some fifty.

　　 These soldiers will also go out on patrols to take precautions.

　　 Chang Yuchun has been a bandit for several years, and there are special people in the cottage watching for fear of sneak attack.

　　 But obviously, it was not so thorough.

　　 What makes Chang Yuchun most amazed is that there are blind people in these fortresses!

　　 That’s right, those blind people who can’t see, what can they do? Isn't it messing up?

　　 Gradually, Chang Yuchun realized that these blind people are of great use.

　　 They can't see with their eyes, and their hearing is usually sharper than ordinary people.

　　 When it rains, fogs, or at night, above the river, it's all black, ordinary people can't see anything, but blind people can vaguely hear some sounds to remind the big guys to pay attention.

　　 This method was used even during World War II and the British air battle. Blind people can hear the sound of fighter engines in the clouds.

　　 Chuzhou soldiers can always amaze Chang Yuchun, here, no one is superfluous.

　　 People make the best use of their talents, and make the best use of everything.

　　 The military discipline is strict and the weather is new.

　　Chang Yuchun really admires his own vision and sees it accurately!

　　 If Chuzhou Soldier can't achieve great cause, he writes his name backwards!

　　 It’s just that the more accurate you see, the more painful he is! Carrying wood and masonry all day long, when is the leader?

　　 Just when Chang Yuchun was in distress, Lan's came back with joy.

　　 "Master, tell you a good thing, Madam wants me."

　　 "Madam? What madam?" Chang Yuchun asked stupidly.

　　 "What more madam, General Zhu's wife! Starting tomorrow, I will go to work with Madam."

　　 "Wait!" Chang Yuchun was shocked. Although he was afraid of his wife, he could not tolerate everything. This lady is shameless, she is obviously waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang to work with her wife.

　　 If the surname Zhu fell in love with his flowery wife, wouldn’t it be a big deal?

　　 Chang Yuchun couldn't help but breathe shortly, as if there was a light shining on his head.

The Lans knew his husband too much, and found him wheezing, with raised eyebrows, and couldn't help but spit, "What do you want to do? My waist is thicker than a water tank. I want to serve people. I don’t have that blessing yet. …You don’t know, this General Zhu is amazing, this is his heart."

　　 Lan gave a thumbs up, and then forced Chang Yuchun to sit down and explain her experience... In Dingyuan and Chuzhou, it is not surprising that women come out to do things.

　　 When granting fields, men and women are the same, no one is more than anyone.

　　 In fact, granting fields to women is nothing unusual. Under the Tang Dynasty's field equalization order, women can get half of a man's acres...Since the Tang Dynasty can do half, now, there is nothing wrong with adding the other half.

　　 Both men and women can get the same acreage, which means that under the rule of Lao Zhu, women have the same status as men.

　　 This is not the result of boxing masters spreading all over the world, but real economic equality.

　　 What follows is that women participate in labor a lot.

　　 Maybe women are less powerful than men, but they are not slower than men when harvesting crops. Some women even learn to drive a car, just like men, get up early, go to work in the field, wear stars and moon, and go home to rest.

　　 They have been recognized by more and more men relying on their own labor.

　　 This time, when repairing the beacon tower along the river, the men are responsible for the physical labor, and the women are responsible for cooking, making clothes, and supplying the soles of shoes... Ma personally arranges and recruits female workers.

　　 Three catties of japonica rice a day for one person. This is the experience that Ma's learned when he was in Haozhou. The only difference is that with more food, she can also be more generous in her shots.

　　 The ravages of the war were too severe. After Sun Deya entered Hezhou, he robbed men and women in large numbers and put them under his command.

　　 A man serves him as a soldier as a minion. What is the use of a woman?

　　 Many couples were arrested and separated in different camps. Even if they met, they did not dare to recognize each other.

　　Some couples simply consider themselves brothers and sisters. After all, it is natural for the older brother to take care of the younger sister. If they are a husband and wife, they will inevitably be ill-intentioned in their lives and be met by accidents...

　　 is clearly a family, but cannot be reunited. And all day long, I was afraid of letting those beasts discover and encounter unexpected events.

　　 Sun Deya has done a lot of sins!

After Zhu Yuanzhang occupied Hezhou, he gathered the women in the army and placed them in different houses, and then asked the men to walk by the door. If they were indeed husbands and wives, the women would take the initiative to recognize each other, and the family would be reunited. Arrange accommodation for them.

　　 Zhu Yuanzhang issued a strict order.

　　Bad family, husband and wife cannot recognize each other, children have no parents to rely on... This is the greatest evil in the world!

　　 If anyone in the army dares to try the law, he will not forgive!

　　 And Lao Zhu gave another order...During the war, many children lost their parents. In this situation, they must be brought up in the military camp.

　　 If anyone dares to abduct children, once they find out, they will not forgive!

　　 Zhu Yuanzhang's laws are strict and can be called a classic.

　　 But it was just such a command one after another, which broke into the rules of the place, and picked it up again. And relying on quite strong administrative ability, let these rules be implemented on everyone.

　　 Hezhou quickly recovered, even better than Yuan Ting's rule.

　　 Lan's telling these things, she couldn't help but feel relieved, she was really convinced.

　　 "The head of the house, I earn more than you now! Let me put it this way, even if you want to leave, I won't agree. I am happy to be a common citizen under Zhu Jiajun's rule!"

　　 Chang Yuchun raised his head helplessly and sighed, he didn't want to leave, but he was not reconciled!

　　Isn’t there any use for my own riding and shooting skills?

After 　　 lamented, Chang Yuchun was still helpless and could only continue to wait.

　　...

　　 "Lord, the autumn harvest is coming this year. No surprises, there will be a bumper harvest!"

　　 Zhang Ximeng laughed and reported to Zhu Yuanzhang.

　　 Normally, the autumn grain is twice as much as the summer grain. In other words, this season's autumn harvest can contribute about 600,000 shi to Lao Zhu.

　　 Zhu Yuanzhang has made rapid progress in finance and taxation. If he wants to be a good family, he must be accountable.

"Sir, there are more than 200,000 people in Hezhou, and we have collected a lot of soldiers and horses. Even if we divide the fields now, we will have to wait for the harvest next summer. We have to repair the beacon tower, build ships, and recruit. Sailors...Which item does not cost money? Right now we have food."

　　 "I am afraid that half of these six hundred thousand stones may be taken to Hezhou." Lao Zhu Chang sighed, "The family business is big, and the expenses are also big. I can't help but be at a loss!"

　　 Zhang Ximeng smiled slightly, and as if conjuring up, he took out another account.

　　 introduced to Zhu Yuanzhang: "The matter about Tian Fu just now was presided over by Mr. Li. I have some accounts in the grain bank here. Is the lord interested?"

　　 Lao Zhu was quite surprised. The grain bank’s design was very complicated. It was a grain book and a variety of bills. Regardless of whether it was bought or sold, it had to be revised on the grain book, with additions and subtractions.

　　 To be honest, it was not Zhang Ximeng's push, Lao Zhu would never agree.

　　He has a simple instinct, the simpler the better. After all, only by being simple enough can we reduce the disadvantages and harm the common people.

　　 This line of thought has run through Zhu Yuanzhang's life.

　　 And most of the time, Lao Zhu is right.

　　 Health post, military household, grain chief... all are the results of this idea.

　　 It’s just that there are some things that I really want to work on.

　　 "Lord, I have absorbed 250,000 shi to store grain. If nothing happens, after the harvest of autumn grains, my stored grain will exceed one million shi!"

　　 "A million stones? How come there are so many?" Lao Zhu was shocked, isn't it bragging? If there are really a million stone grains, there are too many things that can be done.

"My lord, the reason for this judgment is that the deposit in the grain bank is for interest. Moreover, although the fields are divided, the people don't have much savings. It is not easy to build a rain-proof granary at home. Let alone. It’s a granary, and even many people’s houses are too late to be repaired!"

Zhang Ximeng smiled and said: "The people save the food in the bank, and they save the trouble of storage. We are responsible for the cost of repairing the warehouse. Mr. Li is already busy, expanding the granary overnight, and be sure to save the food. ."

　　 After talking about this, Lao Zhu gradually understood, "You are paying for the convenience of the people. It stands to reason that we shouldn't say anything more, but the gentleman has always been smart, what good do we have?"

　　 Zhu Yuanzhang still knows Zhang Ximeng very well. Of course, this kid is not bad, but he is not a bad guy. He promised to hide his hand.

　　 "The lord, in fact, the truth is very simple. If the minister has a million shi for grain, about half a million shi can be loaned to the lord?"

　　 "Borrow it?" Zhu Yuanzhang rolled his eyelids and chuckled: "Sir, aren't we afraid that we won't pay it back?"

　　 "Don't be afraid! Because the lord dare not!"

　　 "Why?" Old Zhu really didn't think there was anything he didn't dare to.

"Because the lord has the heart to love the people!" Zhang Ximeng smiled: "These foods are temporarily stored by the people in my place. They will naturally come to draw them if they need them, so they can't lend them to the lord. Moreover, the lord must return it in full on time. Only in this way can we explain to the thousands of people. Otherwise, the people will know that their food has been taken away, and the consequences will be disastrous!"

　　 Zhu Yuanzhang fell silent in astonishment. He took the account in Zhang Ximeng's hand, looked through it carefully, thoughtfully.

　　 What Zhang Ximeng showed him is exactly two systems, one is called finance and tax, and the other is called finance!

　　The so-called fiscal taxes are naturally land taxes and miscellaneous taxes levied by the imperial court, and these incomes are completely handed over to the government.

　　 The other is the financial system. The money in this system does not belong to the court and cannot be used directly.

　　 But as long as the loan is based on interest and the return is guaranteed, UU Read www.uukanshu.com can get it, which greatly increases the amount of wealth that the court can control.

　　 Just like the current situation, you can double the salary that Lao Zhu Neng controls, even super double!

　　Similarly, you also need to bear the consequences, one of which is naturally to return the same amount to ensure credit. The second is to borrow money to fight a war, and you must win. If you lose, you can't pay the money, and the consequences can be disastrous.

　　 Facing the new gameplay of the bank, Lao Zhu did not immediately overjoy. On the contrary, he appeared very solemn.

　　 Such a big matter cannot be easily decided.

　　 "Sir, take the time to accompany us to see for yourself, and then go to the homes of some depositors. I want to hear what they say."

　　 Zhang Ximeng nodded vigorously, even a little bit relieved, Zhu Yuanzhang, who is cautious and astute, is the ideal head of the family.

　　 Time entered the second ten days of August, a secret letter from most to Chuzhou, passed by Jia Lu's hand, and sent to Zhu Yuanzhang.

　　 "Lord Lord, Yuan Ting has decided to let the Prime Minister get rid of the leader. He has assembled the national forces and transferred the kings from the northwest. The total is more than 400,000. He is ready to claim one million and take Gaoyou directly and destroy Zhang Shicheng first!"

　　 At this moment Yuan Ting didn't make a formal decree, but Jia Lu was able to get the information so accurate. This old man is also a god.

Jia Lu was unwilling to pretend to be mysterious in front of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Ximeng, and directly told them, “The old man used to be Zhongshu Zuo Cheng, and he still knew a few people in Zhongshu Province. It’s just that I’m a dead person now. Let others do it for you and buy some news from them."

　　 Zhang Ximeng naturally believes Jia Lu’s words, but he can sell even such an important military intelligence. Is Yuan Ting really sure to win?
