Chapter 103 Zhu Biao: My stomach is not very good

"Wandering Dream Pillow, what's so strange about that thing? My father actually exchanged it for the integration of universal education and the opportunity for our royal family to go to school in that main world. Although I don't know what the use of this integration of education is,

At that time, I listened outside the door. Zhao Yuanzuo of the Northern Song Dynasty valued this thing very much. As you know, our father also felt that he had not studied enough all his life, so he must let us study well, so he was very fond of this kind of thing.

Things are extremely important, so I took that opportunity to exchange for another chance to study. But what I want to know is why the other party wanted to exchange this thing. You also know that the cost of education for all is quite a lot, and it is not two years a year.

Years are not three or five years, but ten or twenty years. Only in this way can we cultivate a generation of people. I really don’t know what they want to do?"

Zhu Ting looked at the Dream Dream Pillow and told him what Zhu Yuanzhang wanted.

Zhu Biao frowned on the spot. Is this an attempt to control the minds of the people? The concept of the Lord of Heaven and Earth as a master is widely spread among the people. Does this mean he wants to be a master of the world? His heart is big enough, but over there

Zhu Biao really wanted the scientific concepts of the main world. After all, they were really good.

Besides, after studying there, these people may be inferior in depth of knowledge, but their breadth of knowledge is indeed much higher than that of the talented scholars of the Ming Dynasty. Even the ministers and bachelors are not as good as them. According to

In their words, this seems to be called an era of explosion of knowledge.

Although all knowledge is only superficial, the breadth of this knowledge is indeed far beyond what it is now. Everyone can be said to be an all-rounder, and they can understand by analogy whatever problems and problems they encounter.

"Don't worry about this. Their education is a good thing and an opportunity for us. I will talk to them personally about this. There are some things you don't know about it, but this study, you

Everyone must go there. I don’t know if you are going, but those noble sons and the top three ministers in the court are going, and I am going too."

At this time, Zhu Biao directly said "I". This title means that this is not your brother's request to his younger brother, but the emperor's request to his ministers. This is much more formal.

"My brother accepts the order."

The three of them all stood up, raised their hands, and gave a solemn salute.

Now it's considered an order.

"Come, now that we've finished talking about the business, let's talk about something else. Let's talk about a family matter of mine. I want you to help me with my advice."

Zhu Biao smiled and pulled the three of them to sit next to him.

"Brother, if anything happens, just tell me."

"It is said that the big businessmen in Jiangnan have regained their strength, right?"

Zhu Biao said softly, as if he was embarrassed.

"Yes, I often sent people to the south of the Yangtze River, especially in the areas of Suzhou, Hangzhou, Fujian and Zhejiang. The big businessmen there started to be extravagant again. They started to do this thing again, making it happen on August 18th every year.

, when there is a big tide in Qiantang, a lot of people go to grab those gold leaf ones, why don’t you have any idea about this matter, are you preparing to kill the pig?"

Zhu Fang knew the extravagance of those wealthy businessmen. He felt that it was time to kill a wave of fat pigs and fatten the national treasury and internal treasury. This was what Zhu Yuanzhang had done before.

Those wealthy merchants were all maritime merchants, and maritime merchants were illegal. If they were convicted, they would all be killed if they went to sea in violation of orders.

These people are the pigs left behind by Zhu Yuanzhang. When something goes wrong, future emperors can kill those who eat meat. It is a pity that none of the future emperors can understand Zhu Yuanzhang's good intentions. On the contrary, those civil servants have nothing to do with anything.

Yes, go cut them two pounds of flesh.

In the end, he was not ruthless and cut them awake. They realized that they had used the money to feed the dogs. In other words, this group of people brought Daming down.

"No, I just want to know if they have recovered their strength. As for the idea of ​​killing pigs, I don't have it. After all, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce are the four dimensions of the country. They are all my people. How can I just kill them?

This is not what Renjun did, you can’t do this, you can’t do this.”

Zhu Biao quickly waved his hand and said, he is different from Zhu Yuanzhang, he still wants to have face.

"Then what do you mean and what do you want to do?"

Zhu Biao heard what Zhu Biao meant. It was not that he would not do it, but that he could not do it. In other words, Zhu Biao wanted to kill the pigs, but he did not want to kill them all at once like Zhu Yuanzhang. He probably wanted to keep the pigs flowing.

"Well, you see, your little nephew, that is, Yunxi, is not young anymore. I plan to choose a concubine for him. Also, I have just ascended the throne and I also need to have some new things. I want to enrich myself.

Let's take a look at the harem. Scholars, farmers, industry and merchants are the fourth dimension of the country. Before, our father had a rule that we could only select candidates for the harem from small families.

Of course, this is the need of the court's political situation. In order to avoid the lessons learned from the previous dynasty's foreign relatives' interference in politics and strictly control the power of the foreign relatives, the queen of our dynasty chooses as many private Xiaojiabiyu as possible.

Moreover, the compilation in the first year of Hongwu also stipulated that in the selection of concubines, "all emperors, princes, concubines, and concubines should carefully select daughters from good families, and concubines should be chosen from among the people."

There was also a sign warning that concubines in the harem could not interfere with the government. Needless to say, this point goes without saying.

As for this, I think that our royal family must treat scholars, farmers, industry and commerce equally. When selecting, the requirements can be stricter, but women of the right age who are scholars, farmers, industry and commerce should be able to join, and

Should we also collect some dowry? The queen doesn’t want it anymore. This queen still wants Xiaojiabiyu from a commoner’s background, but are those concubines okay? Haha, you can help me give advice.”

Zhu Biao was a little embarrassed, but the other three people understood clearly what he said. He wanted to collect dowries from the families of wealthy businessmen. This matter could be considered. If the emperor and

If the prince takes this initiative, then we princes can also do the same.

Although the current dowry is not as generous as that of the Song Dynasty, marrying into the royal family is something that the wealthy businessmen can only dream of, so it seems that it can be considered.

"If this is the case, what about commercial taxes? Will they still pay taxes? Once they become relatives of the royal family, who will dare to collect their commercial taxes? In this case, there will be no commercial taxes in the late Ming Dynasty.

It may appear in advance, brother, how do you plan to solve this problem?"
