"It seems that some things have to be done sooner."

Zhu Xu closed the fan and said with a smile.

By this time in the Ming Dynasty, all the contradictions had developed to the extreme, and with the emergence of capitalism, the doubts about the feudal monarchy would become louder and louder.

Although the Da Ming Law was rebuilt and the rationality and legitimacy of the imperial power were determined in the law, if you want to thoroughly straighten out your thinking and gain enough recognition, you can't rely on a Da Ming Law alone.

Is it too early to add a 'business theory' to the academy and imperial examinations? ’

Zhu Xu thought as he walked.

Daming's current business environment is very bad, the most important thing is that 'Xiaoice River' affects all aspects, if the general environment is better, business development should be easier to promote, after business development plus foreign exchanges, maybe some things will be solved.

"After all, we are in the most difficult moment......"

Zhu Xu couldn't help but look up to the sky and sighed softly, the end of the Ming Dynasty in history was really too difficult, and now he is also constrained everywhere when he starts doing things, and he is oppressed by reality and difficult to perform.

Cao Huachun and Cao Bianjiao silently followed behind Zhu Xu, they couldn't understand Zhu Xu's words, so they could only listen quietly.

For a while, Zhu Xu shook his head slightly, he wanted to race against time, but space didn't allow it.

He let go of these, did not alarm anyone, and walked slowly in the academy.

The students here are not later generations of college students, holding books, bowing their heads, and forgetting to sleep and eat. They are keen to debate collectively, to express their opinions, and not to be 'shy to answer', as if they don't care about anything.

Zhu Xu paced in the academy, observing everything around, the environment here is not so much like the academy, more like a beautiful courtyard, pavilions, patchwork, rockeries and small lakes, the scenery is unique.

From time to time, you can see a group of students arguing there, and the topics of the arguments are still very large.

'The drawbacks of Jingzheng's New Deal. ’

'The structure of the political situation in our country is good and bad. ’

'The gentry paid taxes and gave preferential treatment to the gentry. ’

Zhu Xu would occasionally stop, listen quietly for a while, and then walk forward with a smile.

The students are not very old, eleven or twelve years old, and they are a little 'naïve' in terms of arguments and arguments, and they can't get to the point, but for their age, they are also commendable.

Zhu Xu walked here, unconsciously feeling that this place is very big, it is bigger than the university in later generations, and it is estimated that there are at least 5,000 acres!

"It's really big...... Zhu Xu sighed, you know, this is Yang. The new urban area of the state, not the remote suburbs, this river. The Metropolitan Academy is really not ordinary.

Zhu Xu walked around and came to a row of teaching colleges, rows of two-story buildings with red bricks and green tiles, and the sound of Lang Lang reading was everywhere.

A group of people approached quietly, and Zhu Xu stopped in front of a relatively quiet classroom window, looked into the open window, and couldn't help but be stunned.

I saw that there were more than 30 people in the classroom, all of them sitting on the floor, a middle-aged man sitting cross-legged in the front, and the students sitting around, listening to his lecture.

The middle-aged man's face was calm, and he smiled warmly in the spring breeze and said, "Emperor Taizu started from cloth, expelled the Tatars, and then built China. It has been more than two hundred years since the country was Taizu and Chengzu, and the land was gradually lost, and the imperial court changed from an offensive mentality to a defensive state. Dian, Annam had been constantly invading, until the current emperor ascended the throne, rose up to clean up the military and government, pacified the troubles in the north, and there were several years of peace. Today's exam question: Nowadays, disasters are endless, civil unrest is rising one after another, the innovation of the imperial court is stumbling, and the treasury is becoming empty...... Go? ”

As soon as this question came out, Zhu Xu's expression suddenly moved slightly, and his eyes were dark.

The eleven or twelve-year-old young man in front of the middle-aged man was silent for a while when he heard the words, and then he spoke very lively.

"From Qin to the present, the longest to enjoy the country is only 400 years, and the situation in my Ming Dynasty is grim, and we must seriously deal with ......"

"The princes of the court have a hunch that 'Zhongxing Daming' has been for many years, and I think the reason why the imperial court was able to eliminate Jiannu was because of the accumulation of many years......"

"Where I go to the Ming Dynasty, I naturally want to be 'the same ...... the world'"

"'The world is the same'? Isn't this easy, even the ancient sages are powerless......"

"It's just a beautiful idea, it's impossible to ......"

A group of students argued with each other, and in the blink of an eye, it was very intense, and there was a tendency that could not be stopped.

The middle-aged man sat cross-legged, smiling and not moving, just listening quietly.

Zhu Xu outside the window listened more seriously, his eyes flickered slightly, and he couldn't help whispering to himself, "'The world is the same'......"

The reason why people are confused is because they can't see the road ahead, they don't know the end, or in other words, they don't know what to do next. Now there are many academies in the Ming Dynasty and many schools of thought, because the Ming Dynasty has developed to a certain extent, and it needs to move forward and a goal.

'The Great Harmony of the World' may not fool everyone, but it is still easy to set a goal for one or several stages......

Zhu Xu turned around and said with a smile: "This trip is really here, let's go, go back, I have to think about it." ”

Cao Huachun and Cao Bianjiao were confused, so they had to follow Zhu Xu and turn away.

Zhu Xu and the others had just turned around, and the middle-aged man, who had been smiling, turned his head to look at the backs of Zhu Xu's group, frowning slightly.

"Why is this person's back a little familiar......

Zhu Xu has gained a lot today, and after he goes back, he will lock himself in the house.

I wrote down a few big words: the ultimate goal of Daming's development and the current plan.

Just about to continue writing, Zhu Xu frowned, if he writes an ordinary article, he is confident and determined, and his words and sentences are passable, if such an article is read by the world, it is inevitable that he will be a little timid.

"Gotta find a gunman......"

Zhu Xu muttered to himself, and then began to make an outline, starting from scratch, detailed, back and forth, every detail had to be carefully considered and weighed, and there could be no deviation.

When he got busy, Zhu Xu sank into it all, unaware of the outside world.

boom

Suddenly, the sound of a stick hitting the window woke Zhu Xu up.

He looked up, his eyes dizzy, his heart palpitating, and it took him a while to get used to it.

"Your Majesty, can we come in?" Cao Bianjiao knocked on the door and said in a low voice.

Zhu Xu took a deep breath and fixed his mind: "Well, come in." ”

Cao Bianjiao pushed the door in, looked around, then walked to the window and pushed it open.

I saw a group of dozens of people fighting together, holding knives and sticks in their hands, desperately slashing. This is different from seeing it in the morning, purely looking for trouble to vent anger, this time, it is really fighting, and there is no spare hand.

Blood was spilled, and stumps and severed arms were everywhere.

Zhu Xu rubbed his temples, looked outside, it was already half dark, and secretly exhaled, "What happened outside?" ”

Cao Bianjiao closed the window and walked back and said, "Your Majesty, the cabinet has issued a new salt policy. The salt merchants of the state have lost their minds and are on fire in the streets. ”

Zhu Xu frowned, and said to himself: "I remember that Master Bi and my uncle once jointly put on a notebook, which is to sort out the salt administration, control the salt merchants in nine, and end the chaotic situation......

The advantage of this is that it is easy to control, easy to supervise, does not require too much investment from the imperial court, and at the same time is slowly and directly incorporated into the direct organs of the cabinet and regularized.

The direct consequence of this is to kick out most of the salt merchants, especially some old salt merchants, many people who rely on salt and make a fortune will lose this piece of fat.

"Seriously? How did Cao Bushan do it? Zhu Xu turned his head to look at the results just now, and said with an impassive expression.

Cao Bianjiao's face was a little solemn, and said: "I heard that Cao Bushan has mobilized the government soldiers and is pressing everywhere, but it's not just Yang. state, heard Sue. The same is true for the prefecture and the area around Yingtianfu, where the salt merchant fight is becoming more and more intense, and even affects the Huitong commercial house......"

Huitong Commercial Bank and the commercial group to which it belongs are Zhu Xu's lifeblood, and when he heard him, he said: "Why did it spread?" ”

Cao Bianjiao also knew the relationship here, and hesitated a little and said, "Some places are looting, some are resisting, and some are no longer cooperating. There are bad rumors in the state capital......"

Zhu Xu narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "This is using me as an outlet...... Oh, it's also true, who will they take if they don't take me, who will let me bully ......"

Cao Bianjiao could hear that the emperor was angry, and stood there expressionless waiting for the will.

Zhu Xu picked up the pen and continued to improve the outline of his book, which was destined to be a huge work, and still said with a smile: "In fact, this matter is not difficult, that is, salt merchants in various provinces set up chambers of commerce, divide the market internally, and compete externally...... It's just that how many of these officials and masters of mine have the ability to think of this and handle this matter well, instead of pushing it to the imperial court? ”

Cao Bianjiao didn't speak, just quietly looked at Zhu Xu's back, according to the emperor's character, there must be a will in the back.

"Don't worry about it for now, the preparation is perfect, let's go to Xiao Qinhuai after eating." Zhu Xu wrote.

Cao Bianjiao was a little surprised, and responded: "Yes." ”

Zhu Xu knew in his heart, and after a few people had a simple dinner, they cleaned up and went to the Xiaoqinhuai River.

The so-called small Qinhuai is naturally compared to the Qinhuai River in Tianfu, that is, Jinling. One of the most prosperous places in the state.

The small Qinhuai River, from the east gate to the Dongshui Pass, but four miles, on both sides of the song building dance pavilion, tea shop restaurant, painting boat teaching field, row after row, countless. The so-called celebrities and prostitutes are most fond of lingering in the place where Jan. The state is prosperous, and it is a prosperous resort!

Zhu Xu did not go to take a boat, but came to a bridge.

This bridge is called the Siwang Pavilion, and you can see the four sides of this pavilion, which is a special place.

The east side is called Caiyi Street, which specializes in selling women's jewelry, fabrics, rouge gouache, and women come and go, walking in a curling way, agarwood step by step, and there is no end in sight.

Zhu Xu strolled and walked, admiring the beautiful scenery while also observing Yang. The customs of the state.

"Chunhui Garden, Xiaodong Garden, Cui Garden, Zhen Garden, Wu Garden, Dressing Building......"

Zhu Xu looked at them one by one, each of them was extravagant and exquisite, beautiful, which made him extraordinarily novel.
