Daming: Old Zhu, we agreed not to rush!

Chapter 35 Su Jing is My Baby
time flies.

Zhu Biao has been with Su Jing for more than a month.

Since the potatoes were harvested, Su Jing spent most of his time teaching Zhu Biao how to do business.

After all, what he is best at is business.

Like the previous feudal system, the longevity of the dynasty, etc., all depended on his good history and politics in junior high school.

Of course, there is also the meaning of confronting Zhu Yuanzhang.

After all, he belittled the businessman in front of Su Jing more than once, Su Jing naturally wanted to teach his son to be a very good businessman to anger him!
As for Zhu Biao, he has no right to choose.

Su Jing taught him what he learned.

From production to transportation to sales, and accounts, that is a little bit of learning, starting from scratch.

Zhu Biao's life is tiring and fulfilling.

As for Zhu Yuanzhang, he really didn't have much time to pay attention to Su Jing.

Because of the peasant uprisings in various places, they are breaking out one after another.

The scale is small, but it cannot hold up to a large number.

There is also the remnant party of Beiyuan, who are constantly harassing.

Zhu Yuanzhang still attached great importance to these two matters.

He himself started from a peasant uprising, and this is how the world was brought down.

So he is quite vigilant about peasant uprisings!

Zhu Yuanzhang does not allow any latecomers to reproduce his own path, and must be blocked at the first sign!

In fact, other founding emperors in history did the same.

For example, Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, Chen Qiao turned into a yellow robe and became emperor.

Afterwards, he was extra wary of generals, fearing that he would be messed with in the same way.

In the final analysis, the ass decides the head.

Inside the Hall of Fong Xian.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt quite a headache when he looked at the military newspaper memorials presented from all over the Ming Dynasty.

Whether it is to suppress the peasant uprising or resist the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, the army needs to be dispatched.

And the dispatch of the army will inevitably require money and food.

"Money, food, money, food, if the treasury is full, why should I worry about it!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said incomparably worried.

He has a lot of powerful generals under him, such as Xu Da Tanghe, they are all famous generals in the world.

"Your Majesty, the Duke of Korea has arrived."

The eunuch's voice sounded.

"Xuan."

Zhu Yuanzhang said directly.

Soon, the Korean public Li Shanchang came to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Your Majesty, here is my minister."

Li Shanchang, with gray temples, saluted Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly said: "It's not necessary to be good, you are my Xiao He."

Li Shanchang heard the words and immediately said: "Your Majesty has the idea of ​​going west."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said, "That's right, I want to conquer Shaanxi and wipe out all the remnants of the Yuan Party here."

"It's just that the matter of military pay and food needs you to worry about it."

As Zhu Yuanzhang's logistics supervisor, Li Shanchang has always personally handled these matters.

"Your Majesty, this matter is important, and I must do my best to resolve it!"

Li Shanchang did not refuse, and directly agreed to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"it is good!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy.

Li Shanchang did not leave, but asked Zhu Yuanzhang:
"Your Majesty, before I start raising food and grass, I have one more question, please clarify your majesty's doubts."

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment, and said: "Shanchang, there is no need to be like this. If you have any questions, just ask."

Li Shanchang said: "I heard that your Majesty got something that can be used as staple food and has a high yield. Is it true?"

"Yes."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "There is indeed such a thing, called potatoes, and the queen has ordered someone to plant them in the palace."

"What is the yield per mu?"

Li Shanchang asked again.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and said, "Twenty stones."

Because it was only the first planting, Zhu Yuanzhang did not dare to report too high.

Or, in fact, there was a little bit of emptiness in his heart.

After all, he didn't see it with his own eyes like Zhu Biao did.

"Your Majesty, if this is the case, the issue of food and military pay can be resolved within a few days."

Li Shanchang said directly.

Although potatoes can't mature immediately, they don't need to worry about the stock of grain and grass in the coming year.

Daming is a country, Li Shanchang raises military pay and food, it is impossible to empty out the treasury all at once.

But with potatoes, it's different.

There is no need to worry about the food for the coming year, and this year's food can be freely supplied.

"of course it's true."

Zhu Yuanzhang replied directly without the slightest hesitation.

The Western Expedition is very important. Zhu Yuanzhang knows that soldiers are expensive and fast, and he has even drawn up the candidates for the expedition.

"Your Majesty is truly a man of destiny, I will do it now."

Li Shanchang praised him, turned around and left.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the map with a smile on his face:
"Su Jing, you have solved another big problem for me."

In Tianfu.

As Li Shanchang began to raise food and grass, many generals and officials knew that Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to go west.

In the court hall, it was divided into two factions in an instant.

One faction is the active volunteer faction based on generals.

Fighting a battle is equivalent to meritorious service, and the generals are naturally very supportive.

And now Daming has a lot of land, but the population is sparse, and the land that can be rewarded is sufficient, and the generals are all eager to try.

The other school is the recuperation school mainly composed of civil servants.

They think that the treasury of the Ming Dynasty is not abundant now, and the people have just experienced the flames of war, so it is not suitable to fight again, and they should rest and recuperate.

However, it was the beginning of the Ming Dynasty at this time, and the military generals had made great achievements and had great power to speak, so there was no major conflict erupting on the so-called bright side.

It's just that, where is Zhu Yuanzhang, the memorials of civil servants have been presented upwards.

"These scholars really know the priorities!"

Zhu Yuanzhang threw away the memorial casually and said lightly.

Today, it is no different than when Zhu Yuanzhang became the King of Wu. The territory is relatively small, and many things are simple and straightforward to carry out.

Daming is big, and there are many things to worry about.

What the civil servants said is not unreasonable.

Zhu Yuanzhang has made up his mind, but he doesn't want to gain a reputation for going his own way.

You have to shut the mouths of those civil servants!
"Fortunately, I have potatoes."

Zhu Yuanzhang thought of Su Jing's potatoes, and ran to the place where the potatoes were planted in the palace.

I saw that the green potato seedlings had germinated and looked pretty good.

Zhu Yuanzhang was in a good mood.

With potatoes, the mouths of those civil servants can no longer scream.

"Chonghachi, why do you have time to come here?"

Hearing that Zhu Yuanzhang was coming, Empress Ma also arrived shortly thereafter.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said, "Let me see how the potatoes are growing. This is the future of my Ming Dynasty!"

Empress Ma said: "Mr. Su is the heavyweight of Ming Dynasty. If you have time to come here, why don't you go and see Mr. Su."

Su Jing!

Only now did Zhu Yuanzhang remember that he had been busy for a long time, and Su Jing and his son Zhu Biao hadn't paid attention to them for a long time.

"What the girl said is that I really have to go and see Biaoer and Su Jing."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

Empress Ma said: "Chongba, I won't go this time, you and Mr. Su talk more, don't neglect Mr. Su."

"For Biao'er, let him learn from Mr. Su."

As the head of the harem, Empress Ma also has a lot of daily management affairs.

Zhu Yuanzhang replied: "I know, sister, don't worry, Su Jing is my baby now, I must be careful!"
