In Lao Zhu's view, no matter how talented Han Du is, he will be tolerant. But he will never tolerate Han Du betraying Zhu Biao. This is a matter of principle. If Han Du can easily betray Zhu Biao,
How could he safely leave Han Du to Zhu Biao in the future?
The more talented a person is, the more cruel he will be if he causes harm. He is still alive and can still suppress Han Du. If in the future after he conquers Bintian, Han Du will switch to someone else, wouldn't it leave Zhu Biao with trouble?
"Then you can talk and speak freely. No matter what you say, I will pardon you today." Lao Zhu waved his hand towards Han Du for the first time, and then sat back calmly, waiting for Han Du's words.
"These officials are guilty, but they cannot be killed." Han Du said with a smile.
Lao Zhu suddenly laughed when he heard this and said: "You are the one who said they should be punished for their crimes, and you are the one who said they cannot be killed. Han Du, your words confused me, do you know?"
Han Du bowed and said, "It's my fault. I didn't explain it clearly. Your Majesty, what I mean is that just killing them like this is too easy for them."
"You can kill people with just a nod, but you actually said it was too cheap for them?" Lao Zhu also felt that Han Du's words were interesting, so he continued to ask: "Then what should I do to not be too cheap for them?" ??
Han Du straightened up and said seriously: "Your Majesty, since they don't know the hardships of farmers, I thought I could depose them all, give them fields, let them all work as farmers, and let them suffer as farmers.
of suffering.”
After hearing this, Lao Zhu was silent for a long time and asked: "Why do you have such an idea?"
Han Du smiled and asked Lao Zhu: "I dare to ask, does the emperor know that as long as they are alive, they will create value for the Ming Dynasty every moment?"
Seeing that Lao Zhu did not speak, Han Du continued: "Take a farmer as an example. From ten acres of land, he can harvest twenty or thirty dans of grain every year, and he can pay seven dans of tax to the court every year. A person can earn seven dans a year.
Even if they can pay taxes to the court for an average of thirty years, that is still two hundred dan. Although two hundred dan per person is not much, if there are 10,000 people, that is 2 million dan, and if there are 100,000 people, that is 20 million.
Shi. Your Majesty, the twenty million shi of food, even if averaged every year, is still hundreds of thousands of shi. You know, for the annual income of hundreds of thousands of shi, the emperor does not need to pay anything, he only needs to show his noble hand slightly.
It’s at your fingertips.”
Although Han Du had only been in Ming Dynasty for a few years, he was very clear about Lao Zhu's character. Lao Zhu had the character of a small farmer, and he had all the problems of small farmers. Instead of talking to him about big ideas, it was better to tell him directly.
Show naked interests.
The Guo Huan case implicated tens of thousands of people. Lao Zhu wanted to kill him, but Han Du had no objection and could kill him casually. But what would happen after the killing? Han Du wanted to tell Lao Zhu in advance, "Kill these people. Every year in the Ming Dynasty,
It’s just a loss of hundreds of thousands of shi in income, so you can figure it out yourself.”
Lao Zhu didn't expect that Han Du would kick the problem back to him. He sat without saying a word, and the war between heaven and man began in his heart. From the bottom of his heart, Lao Zhu couldn't get rid of the sand in his eyes, because he was determined to kill him.
These corrupt officials killed all of them. But faced with Han Du's offer of hundreds of thousands of dan in vain every year, Lao Zhu, who had always been decisive in killing, hesitated.
Moreover, as time goes by, the income of hundreds of thousands of stones,
It kept getting worse in Lao Zhu's heart, until he completely overcame the thought of killing.
"Hmph! You kid, you are so scheming." Lao Zhu scolded Han Du unwillingly.
When Zhu Biao heard this, he felt overjoyed.
Lao Zhu glanced at Han Du who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Han Du smiled and suddenly felt pain in his knees, with a grin on his face.
Lao Zhu didn't like Han Du. Seeing this situation, he deliberately embarrassed Han Du and said: "I can spare their lives, but just to let them become farmers, I am indignant. You have to find a way to help me get out of this situation."
You must be angry. Otherwise, I will take it out on you."
Why are you venting your anger on me? It's not that I want to let those people go. It's obviously Zhu Biao who wants you to let them go. If you want to vent your anger, go to Zhu Biao.
But facing Lao Zhu's no-joking look, Han Du couldn't help but shrink his neck.
Said: "Since the emperor cannot relieve his anger, it is better to move them all overseas to open up territory for the Ming Dynasty, which can also be regarded as atonement for themselves."
Han Du pretended to be helpless, and revealed the plan that he had prepared in his heart. Moving the people of the Ming Dynasty overseas was really difficult to achieve under the custom of attaching great importance to the homeland. It also made Han Du
Something I can't bear to do.
But for these people who are about to be executed, as long as they can survive, where can they go?
Han Du has always wanted the Ming Dynasty to embark on the road of great navigation, but this great navigation does not mean that it is a great voyage if thousands of ships go out to show off their power and come back.
It is not that the Ming Dynasty did not have great feats of great navigation. Zheng He’s seven voyages to the Western Seas saw the submission of all nations, which shocked the whole world. But what was the result? It is not that it has been lost in the tide of history. The great navigation of the Ming Dynasty has just begun.
Stopped abruptly.
Han Du once thought deeply about this problem, why did he go back to his old ways after clearly going out? After thinking about it, Han Du finally discovered a problem. That is, although Zheng He took the fleet out,
But in fact, the people of Ming Dynasty have never left.
If the Ming Dynasty wants to truly embark on a great voyage, it must disperse its people. As long as the people go out, no matter where they go, Han Du believes that with the diligence of the Ming Dynasty people, they can take root there.
As long as you put down roots and occupy a piece of land, it will be considered stable. People of the Ming Dynasty may not care about anything, but the desire to possess the land is engraved in their blood.
Every inch of mountains and rivers, every inch of blood, is no joke. As long as people from the Ming Dynasty live in this land, as long as they still identify with the Ming Dynasty court, I am afraid that no matter how incompetent the minister or the emperor is, they will not dare to say that they will give up this land.
A piece of land.
If a minister dares to say such words, he will be infamous for thousands of years. For them who want to leave their name in history, this is simply more uncomfortable than killing them. And if the emperor says such words, he will inevitably be punished.
People all over the world cursed: "You are a fool, you don't feel bad for selling your own land!"
Who can bear this?
Therefore, what Han Du has to do now is to move all these people overseas while they are guilty. In Lao Zhu's view, no matter how talented Han Du is, he can tolerate it.
.But he will never tolerate Han Du betraying Zhu Biao. This is a matter of principle. If Han Du can easily betray Zhu Biao, how can he safely leave Han Du to Zhu Biao in the future?
