Daming: Old Zhu, we agreed not to rush!

Chapter 38

Open the sea!
As soon as these words came out of Su Jing's mouth, Zhu Biao's face lost all color.

Because he knew very well why his father Zhu Yuanzhang personally formulated the policy of sea ban.

This is a taboo subject.

"Master Su, this is probably impossible."

Zhu Biao shook his head towards Su Jing.

Su Jing smiled, and continued: "I know what you mean. Although the Ming Dynasty has been established, the remnants of Zhang Shicheng, Fang Guozhen and others are wandering on the offshore islands and refuse to surrender."

"Not only that, they also colluded with the Japanese pirates and repeatedly invaded the coastal areas of our Daming, and many people suffered from this."

"That's why the sea ban policy implemented today is to strengthen the national defense of our Ming Dynasty and protect the safety of the people along the coast, right?"

As a modern person, Su Jing certainly knows the current situation of Daming Haiban.

"As Master Su said, opening the sea is absolutely impossible."

Zhu Biao's complexion improved a lot.

"That's about the same. How could my policy be wrong?"

Zhu Yuanzhang underestimated in a low voice, and continued leaning against the wall to listen.

"Niu Yi, have you ever been to the coast?"

Su Jing didn't continue to talk about Kaihai, but instead asked Zhu Biao if he had been to the coast.

Zhu Biao replied: "I went there when I was young, but my memory is blurred."

Su Jing asked again: "Then what is my Daming's maritime ban policy now, do you know?"

Zhu Biao nodded and said, "Of course I know. Now in the coastal areas of Daming, we strictly follow the policy that people living near the sea are not allowed to go to sea without permission."

"it is good!"

Su Jing continued: "Then you know, what do the people along the coast do for a living?"

Zhu Biao was stunned for a moment, and then replied in silence for a moment: "It should be that most people make a living by fishing."

At this time, he has already realized the problem.

It is said that it is to protect the safety of coastal residents, but in fact the sea ban policy deprives them of their livelihood.

"It seems that you have thought of it too."

Su Jing said indifferently: "The so-called sea ban is, in the final analysis, just a means for the emperor to consolidate his own rule. The livelihood and safety of the coastal people are not the main consideration."

Zhu Biao bowed his head, while Zhu Yuanzhang on the other side was shocked.

Su Jing saw his own purpose so clearly.

This.
Su Jing continued: "Niu Yi, think about it again, if the sea people have nothing to live on, what would they do?"

"The rogues are raging along the coast, and the emperor doesn't want to destroy them, but to imprison the people along the coast. What is the significance of such a sea ban?"

Survival, after all, is the most important thing.

Without waiting for Zhu Biao to speak, Su Jing asserted: "The ban will not work, but An Neng will prevent it from being a bandit! In less than ten years, the bandits at sea will only become more and more rampant!"

As soon as he said that, Zhu Biao was shocked!

Zhu Yuanzhang also showed shock.

As Su Jing said, it is not difficult to imagine.

If the common people have no livelihood, they will become bandits.

There were many such things in the last years of the Yuan Dynasty, and even Lao Zhu himself, didn't he go from common people to "rogues" back then.

Zhu Yuanzhang began to hesitate, because he had originally planned to close all the few remaining shipping companies around the coast of Daming.

"Master Su, but if the sea ban is lifted, then"

Zhu Biao hesitated to speak, but at this time he has not revealed his identity, and there are some things that should not be said by him.

"As soon as the sea ban is lifted, the remaining party of Zhang Shicheng and others will have room to move. Daming's country has just been conquered, so I'm afraid there will be changes, right?"

Su Jing directly said what Zhu Biao wanted.

Zhu Yuanzhang also listened silently, wanting to know what Su Jing thought.

"Mr. Su, the students are dull and can't see clearly the stakes."

Zhu Biao cupped his hands towards Su Jing.

Su Jing said lightly: "If there is anything you can't see clearly, it's just to see where your butt is sitting."

butt?

Zhu Biao was taken aback for a moment, obviously not responding.

Su Jing asked back: "If you were a sea citizen, do you think you would support the sea ban?"

In a word, Zhu Biao was stopped directly.

The decisions made by the superiors based on their own interests are of course self-centered considerations.

But for others, this is not the case.

Zhu Biao paused and said, "The people are so ignorant."

That's what his teacher taught him, and it's what his father taught him.

"Biaoer, well said!"

If he didn't want to be discovered, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but admire him.

"How stupid are the people?"

Su Jing opened her eyes and stared at Zhu Biao, who was quite unfamiliar.

The boy who has been with him for more than a month is so strange at this moment.

"Niu Yi, can you say it again?"

Su Jing's eyes were a little ferocious and he said: "You said that the people are so ignorant, so is this the reason to give up on them?"

As a modern person, Su Jing still has his own little conscience after all.

He knew that he might not be able to change anything, but at least the people around him should do his best to help.

This is why he obviously could make more money with his business acumen, but he didn't do so.

Now, Su Jing was a little angry that his disciple, who had a master-student relationship with him, actually said such a thing.

"Master Su, I."

Zhu Biao hesitated to speak, not knowing how to explain.

Since he was a child, he was trained as the future successor of Lao Zhu. He has learned a lot about the art of controlling people and the art of controlling the people.

"That's all."

Su Jing suddenly realized that he was in the Ming Dynasty, not the modern society.

It is not a mistake to form such a concept in the thinking of feudal society.

Even in the era I live in, there is not much difference.

It's just wishful thinking.

"Let's stop here today, I'm a little tired, go back and rest by yourself."

Su Jing directly stopped the conversation, turned and left the private room.

Zhu Biao sat on the chair in a daze, not quite understanding.

Why is Su Jing angry?
In his opinion, people like Su Jing are not ordinary people at all, and they are definitely not among the common people.

So why should he care so much?
"Marker."

Zhu Yuanzhang's voice suddenly appeared.

"Father, why are you here?"

Zhu Biao was taken aback, but he immediately saluted Zhu Yuanzhang.

There was no one else around at the moment, so he also called Father Huang directly.

Zhu Yuanzhang replied: "I have been here for a while, and I have always been next door."

Eavesdropping?

Zhu Biao was taken aback for a moment, he really didn't expect his father to eavesdrop.

His father is today!

"Biao'er, I still didn't understand what Su Jing said today, please repeat it again."

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a normal face.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with his eavesdropping.

"Yes, Father."

Zhu Biao immediately began to retell the previous conversation.

After Zhu Yuanzhang listened, his face became slightly condensed.

Zhu Biao asked in a low voice: "Father, according to Master Su's words, is Daming Haijin right?"

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said: "It's too early. After I think about it, Biao'er can ask Su Jing again. Since he can propose to open the sea, he must have a detailed strategy."
