Ming Dynasty: 100-year-old Heavenly Master, Zhu Yuanzhang’s biological father.

Chapter 140

The snow was falling, and the sky and the earth were white and shrouded in ice and snow. The cold wind blows, the snowflakes fall, and the cold is oppressive, making people feel the biting cold.

Pedestrians on the road hurried by, wearing heavy cotton clothes and hunching their necks to resist the invasion of the cold wind. Houses and trees in the distance were covered with heavy snow.

In this cold winter day, people have taken refuge in the house, warmed themselves around the fire, and chatted with their families.

Approaching the end of the year, the imperial court has finally closed the court, and the officials can finally rest, so the teahouse and restaurant in the second season of the year are very popular.

The Zhu family also gathered in the garden on the top floor of Tianji Tower, where it was as warm as spring.

While enjoying the heavy snowfall, eating barbecue is also a unique place.

Zhu Shizhen was roasting corn with his own hands, and there were sweet potatoes and potatoes in the fire, which he had brought from the household.

This time, according to his request, the king of Xiang sent rune warships to bring back more than a dozen ships of corn, potatoes and sweet potatoes from the Americas.

"Dad, what is this?" asked Zhu Yuanzhang on the right.

"It smells so good. Zhu Jiaran on the left sniffed his nose.

Zhu Shizhen looked left and right, both children and daughters, but why does it always feel weird?

"It's corn. Zhu Shizhen introduced, "You can make grain, you can also feed pigs, with an annual output of 1,000 catties, no irrigation." "

"Ah, is that what Xia Yuanji said?" Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked.

"And this, sweet potatoes and potatoes, with an annual output of more than 3,000 catties, can also be used as food, can also be used as vegetables, and of course can also be fed to pigs, such as you. Zhu Shizhen pointed to the fire, "If you promote these next year, there will be fewer people starving in Daming in the future." "Zero Zero Seven" "Great, that's a good thing." Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up, "If we had these when we were children, you wouldn't starve to death." "

"Ah, Dad, are you starving to death?" Zhu Jiaran was startled.

"No, Jia Ran, there was no you at that time, my father didn't know how to practice, he could only farm, and he starved to death when the family had no food. Zhu Yuanzhang spread his hands.

Syllable!

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and slapped him: "Can you say something auspicious, Jia Ran, don't listen to your brother's nonsense." "

He handed the roasted corn to Zhu Jiaran.

Zhu Jiaran took the corn, broke two sections, handed one to Zhu Yuanzhang, and blinked: "Brother, here you go." "

"Hahaha, it's still Jiaran who is good to us. "

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled from ear to ear, took the corn and ate it, "It's very sweet, if you had these when you were a child, it would be great." "

Zhu Shizhen looked at the two brothers and sisters, hey, their relationship is quite good.

......

The Zhu family is eating corn, sweet potatoes and potatoes for the first time, and they all eat very fragrant.

A large family gathered around to eat and drink, which had never been done before, and only the emperor summoned it, this barbecue mode, there are not so many rules.

The juniors were making trouble in the garden, although Zhu Jiaran was the youngest, he was the oldest, and he commanded Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Yunxi to build a snowman there.

"Little fat man, will you?"

"Auntie, don't just say it, come by yourself. "

"Hey, little fat man, don't listen to my aunt, do you? Watch out for me spanking you. "

Zhu Gaochi was very helpless, he had never seen such a horizontal one.

Zhu Yunxi patted him on the shoulder, and his eyes signaled obedience, this little aunt, but even the imperial grandfather didn't dare to offend.

Zhu Jiaran was like a little adult: "What's the matter, I'm not convinced? I was angry, and even your father beat me, and your father had to call me aunt." "

Zhu Gaochi spread his hands: "Convincing, the most convincing." "

A few people began to continue building snowmen, to build a big one.

"Yunxi, why didn't your brother come? Zhu Jiaran asked.

"Auntie, are you talking about Zhu Yunwen? He, I only listen to his mother. Zhu Yunxi said.

"Next time I go to the East Palace, I'll clean up with my mother. Zhu Jiaran said.

"Forget it, it's good that our well water doesn't interfere with river water. Zhu Yunxi spread his hands.

"Auntie, I heard that you succeeded in building the foundation?" Zhu Gao blinked, "You built the foundation at the age of two, you are amazing." "

"Cut, you wait, in a few years, I will surpass you. "Zhu Jiaran is very arrogant.

"Then you have to work hard, my eldest brother is a baby. Zhu Yunxi said.

"Zhu Xiongying?" Zhu Jiaran turned his head and shouted, "Zhu Xiongying, you come over to me!"

Zhu Xiongying, who was eating sweet potatoes, hurriedly ran over.

Zhu Jiaran crossed his waist: "I heard that you are very powerful, let's compare the two?"

"It's not amazing, you are not as good as your aunt. "

Zhu Xiongying hurriedly shook his head and clenched his fists, "Auntie, you are extremely talented, the most powerful, I am willing to bow down." "

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Yunxi on the side rolled their eyes in disdain.

Zhu Xiongying glanced sideways and thought, you know a fart, this is the daughter of the emperor, you can't afford to provoke it.

......

The children were making trouble in the garden.

The adults ate around the table, and the women, of course, were led by Queen Ma at the other table.

The Zhu family members gathered around a table, drinking and bragging.

Zhu Shizhen's eyes swept over and said, "The territory of the Ming Dynasty is getting bigger and bigger, and you can start global trade, and the conditions are met." "

"Merchants, we don't trust them. "

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted and shook his head, "Now that there is such good food, of course we will promote farming." "

Syllable!

Zhu Shizhen slapped and glared: "You know a fart, farming has to be heavy, but commerce and trade must also be opened, otherwise, your taxes are all obtained from the farming farmers, don't you cherish the people?

"Let's ...... This...... That's what we've done for thousands of years. Zhu Yuanzhang spread his hands, "The things of the ancestors can't be lost." "

"No, commerce and trade in the Yuan Dynasty were very developed. Zhu Shizhen said, "During the period of Kublai Khan, the territory of the compound was vast, and there were conditions for global trade, and most of them were global trade centers. "

He was right about this, the Yuan Dynasty perfected the post station system, and the trade routes were very developed.

Where in the subject country, all set up post stations, dotted all over the place, the veins are connected, not only in the territory of the Yuan, the vassal states are set up post stations, and the functions are complete, so that the ministers come and go to live.

This also completely opened up the trade routes, and the caravans came and went smoothly, so that "when the four directions come and go, there are pavilions, there are tribute tents, and there is food and drink when hungry and thirsty".

Not only by land, but also by sea, the Yuan Dynasty set up a special city department, in addition to managing maritime trade, there was even official trade.

The city shipping department provides the sea ships and the cargo capital, recruits merchants to go to the sea to trade, and the profits are divided into three parts of the official seven merchants.

"If there are more taxes on the trade side, won't we be able to exempt the peasants from paying more taxes?" Zhu Shizhen said.

Zhu Yuanzhang was thoughtful, his brows furrowed.

Zhu Shizhen continued: "If you really want to reduce the burden on the peasants and have to seek change, this matter is very complicated, and it can only be solved if the productivity of the whole society is improved. "

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't seem to understand.

Zhu Shizhen can't understand, he himself is half-, but he believes that someone in Daming will understand. As long as education flourishes, there will be no shortage of smart people.

"The twelfth has already set up guards in various parts of Nanyang according to your grandfather's wishes, and has started to do business locally. Zhu Di said.

"Put the Daming Trading Company together, and the money over there will far exceed the taxes at that time. Zhu Shizhen spread his hands, "If you have silver, you can buy grain from overseas domains." "

"Dad, you said too much at once, we can't digest it at once. Zhu Yuanzhang held his forehead.

"Let the whole plan of the household department come out, and when you look at it again, I think Xia Yuanji and a few of them have a very bright brain. Zhu Shizhen smiled.

He only proposed directions, and as for specific measures, he did not think that he could compare with these ancient people. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

......

While they were talking, there was a commotion in the garden.

"Crying, crying, crying, crying? Zhu Jiaran crossed his waist and was reprimanding people, and his little man was full of momentum.

And the one who was crying on the ground was Zhu Gaosui, the third son of King Yan.

Almost all the children and grandchildren of the Zhu family are learning art in Tianjilou, but Zhu Shizhen is less concerned about specific things. []

Zhu Shizhen looked at it, with a black line.

As soon as he raised his hand, he beckoned Zhu Jiaran over, with a black face: "Zhu Jiaran! You are young, what kind of eldest sister is old? Although you are older, they are older than you, you should be honest." "

Xu Miaoyun also slipped his son over, and looked angrily: "Gao Sui, don't you kowtow to your aunt to apologize? People are elders, do you know that you respect your elders? Besides, why are you crying?"

Zhu Di on the side couldn't wait to slap his son away.

Zhu Gaosui cried and chirped: "Auntie, she beat me.0"

"Stop!" Zhu Jiaran crossed his waist, "cry again, and see you fight once in the future." "

Zhu Gaosui immediately stopped, not daring to cry.

When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but be happy.

"Jia Ran, you punish Lao Tzu to stop. Zhu Shizhen glared.

The daughter in his heart, who is gentle and elegant, how can she be a spicy big sister?

"Dad, don't scare Jia Ran. Zhu Yuanzhang beckoned to Zhu Jiaran, "Jiaran, my brother will take you to play." "

"Well, let's go buy sugar gourds. Zhu Jiaran ran to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang took Zhu Jiaran's little hand and flew away.

Zhu Shizhen had a black line on his head and said to Princess Fuli behind him: "This is not good, you have to educate your daughter well, won't you become a little sister in the future?"

"What is the little sister?" Princess Fu Li glared, "I think it's good, oops, Jia Ran has a brother who hurts, and I'll be relaxed." "

"It's not just my brother who hurts, that's the treasure of our Zhu family. Queen Ma smiled.

"Soon, there will be new treasures, and then I will see who the emperor likes the most. Princess Fu Li touched Chu Fangyu's big belly.

Chu Fangyu's face was shy.

......

Zhu Shizhen came to the teahouse to tell stories.

For the comprehension of the power of sentient beings, he has never made any breakthroughs.

"The sun is basking in the new valley, the orange tree is hanging high, the fisherman is draped, the old farmer is carrying a hoe, the woman is picking mulberry, the young child is herding cattle, and the old woman is pounding clothes!

Perhaps you have to see all the things in this world to truly comprehend the power of all beings.

Storytelling is just one part of looking at the world.

"The first generation of Confucian sages opened up Xu Xiaonian's whole body and opened up the acupoints and accumulated silt, which was no less difficult than Liyang Zhang Julu to rectify Caoyun. Zhu Shizhen took a sip of tea, "Everyone, this is the end of today's storytelling, I want to know what will happen next, and listen to the next breakdown." "

He recently talked about "In the Snow" that he had seen in his previous life, which was very popular, and the teahouse was full, and some even lay on the stairs.

Although everyone is still unsatisfied, they all know that the Heavenly Master will end when he says it will be over, and he will never add more scenes.

Besides, who is the Heavenly Master? Emperor Tai, can he still be ordered?

However, this emperor doesn't have the slightest shelf, and the people in the teahouse are not afraid, they are bold and will laugh a few words.

"Emperor, where are you going to play this time after you make money from storytelling? I heard that there is a new Oiran in Yihong Courtyard, and the shopkeeper specially kept it for you. "

"Yes, my lord, why don't we go to Yihong Courtyard? I'll treat you, and I'll cover the cost of the Oiran. "

Everyone began to coax, and they all knew about the Heavenly Master's going to the Qinglou.

Zhu Shizhen's eyes swept over, and he was not angry: "Lao Du 0.2, don't fool Lao Tzu's reputation, I am a person with a daughter-in-law, how could I go to that kind of place?"

Du Yuanwai had a black line and spread his hands: "Emperor, who doesn't know about you going to the Qinglou to rob the Oiran?"

"That's an illusion!" Zhu Shizhen glared.

Because he found Princess Fu Li, holding Zhu Jiaran in the crowd.

Out of the teahouse, he quickly caught up with Princess Fuli and Zhu Jiaran, and smiled: "Why did you come to hear about the book?"

"Dad, shame on you, you still want to go to Qinglou?"

Zhu Jiaran pointed to the girls coming and going on the street, and said, "Who do you like, won't you get it back?"

Zhu Zhizhen supported his forehead.

Princess Fu Li took a mouthful of old blood and grabbed Zhu Jiaran's ear: "Hey, you little conscienceless, what do you mean? I think your father and daughter-in-law are missing, right?"

"Mother, men are all virtuous, dogs can't change eating. Zhu Jiaran said.

"Hey, where did you learn these words?" said Zhu Shizhen, covering her face.

"Sister-in-law, that's how my sister-in-law scolded my eldest brother when she scolded her. Zhu Jiaran said, "Mother, count it, my father has calculated it, you look at my eldest brother, how many daughters-in-law I can't count." "

"Can that be the same? Your eldest brother is the Emperor. Princess Fu Li said, "The emperor has three palaces and six courtyards, which is normal. "

"Is my father still the emperor? should he have six palaces and nine courtyards?" Zhu Jiaran blinked.

"Do you want to be angry with the old lady?" Princess Fuli sighed, "It's over, this child is not related to his mother, the old lady wants to have another one, and this daughter is wasted." "

Zhu Shizhen couldn't help but smile and reached out to wrap her arms around her flexible waist.
