Zhu Di asked his subordinates to clean up the yard, and sent them all outside to watch. There are only three people left in the entire courtyard: Zhu Di, Zhu Biao and He Qiu.

Only then did Zhu Biao speak, his expression solemn, "Lonely here on behalf of my Ming people, thank you for the grace of your life." ”

After speaking, he got up and gave He Qiu a long look, but Zhu Di and He Qiu couldn't stop him.

"Why this, why this." He Qiu was at a loss.

Zhu Biao said seriously, "The good seeds offered by Mr. yield dozens of stones per mu, and the two kinds of good seeds do not pick the land, the people can have more food in the harvest year, and they can survive in the famine year. ”

He Qiu looked at the slightly honest prince in front of him, and was a little moved, although he was on Zhu Di's side, Zhu Biao's gentlemanly style really shocked him.

Although he had the intention to explain that even if he didn't have himself, he would be introduced to China in the future, but He Qiu thought about it carefully, these seedlings from his own sign-in system were also mature versions of later generations, and if it was a hundred years later, he didn't know how many more people would die in the world, so he was silent in the end.

Zhu Di on the side watched Zhu Biao's movements, he also wanted to be like Zhu Biao, thank He Qiu on behalf of the people of the world, but unfortunately he didn't have this qualification.

After Zhu Biao finished the big salute, he asked He Qiu seriously: "I heard my father say that Mr. He has some understanding of the maladministration of the world, can you explain my doubts." ”

Zhu Di also looked at He Qiu expectantly, you must know that He Qiu had never said this to him before, if he didn't know what knot he had opened when he came to the capital this time, he didn't know that He Qiu still had so many thoughts in his heart.

He Qiu pondered for a while, after all, the two people in front of him were not ordinary people, and what he said might affect the lives of tens of millions of people in the future.

After thinking about it, He Qiu slowly opened his mouth and asked: "Dare to ask the two highnesses, in your opinion, what is the most important thing in governing the world?" ”

Zhu Biao tentatively spoke, "Light and thin? ”

Zhu Di pondered for a while, "Money and grain." ”

He Qiu first nodded, then shook his head, "In my opinion, the most important thing in governing the world is wealth and people. ”

"The simple classification is money, grain and talents, with money and food, the court can speak with confidence and issue a series of policies, otherwise it may be that the government decree will not go out of the capital, let alone govern the world."

"With talents, the good governance of the imperial court can be put in place, otherwise the policies formulated by the imperial court will be completely out of shape when they are implemented below."

Zhu Biao was puzzled, "But these days, the land tax and oral taxes are counted, even if you count the monopoly of salt and iron, it is only tens of millions of money and grain a year, which will always be enough, right?" ”

"If we don't build water conservancy and don't provide disaster relief and quell chaos, that's naturally enough."

He Qiufu said again, "Dare to ask Your Highness, why did the Southern Song Dynasty block Mongolia for decades with the southeast?" ”

"This ...... I really don't know. ”

Zhu Biao and Zhu Di shook their heads.

"Commercial Taxes and Customs."

"The commercial tax of the Southern Song Dynasty is much higher than that of this dynasty, and there is a tax on maritime trade, in the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, the city can earn more than 1.5 million taels of silver, more than 1.5 million taels of silver, and now the imperial court does not have so much silver a year, right?"

Zhu Biao and the two of them gasped together, and now the silver income of the imperial court is indeed not as much as this.

"As for talents, I think the two highnesses also know how many corrupt officials and corrupt officials there are in the world, there are too few capable officials, and many clean officials are not familiar with general affairs, often just have good personal morality, and their abilities are not even as good as some corrupt officials."

"Counting on these people to rule the country, the people will not be able to survive in a good year, not to mention that there are still powerful people in the local area, and then they will get together with corrupt officials and make a mess in the place."

He Qiu couldn't help but sigh when he said this, the people in ancient China were miserable, there was no need for major natural and man-made disasters, just a small official could ruin their families.

This phenomenon only slowly disappeared after the establishment of New China, but now, let's not talk about it.

"Therefore wealth and man are one and two, and two and one things, complement each other."

"If Your Highness wants to ask me about the policy of governing the country, then I suggest that Your Highness first open the sea ban, re-set the commercial tax, carry out the reform of the military system after receiving the money and grain, and after taking over the military power, carry out the reform of the imperial examination and the reform of the officials, and wait until these two reforms are completed, and then implement the major policies such as the integration of the officials and gentry to pay grain and apportionment into the mu."

Zhu Biao was taken aback when he heard this, "Imperial examination reform? ”

He Qiu's eyes looked into the distance, "Yes, the imperial examination is reformed, and most of the people selected in the current imperial examination are people who do not distinguish between grains and grains, so they will only die studying, and they will be played by the local heroes and slippery officials." ”

"Is such a person a suitable candidate to govern the country in the eyes of His Highness? The so-called prime minister must start from the state and county, and the fierce general must start from the army. Only those who come out in this way will not be a waste who 'has nothing to do and talks about their hearts, and reports to the king when they die'. ”

"Naturally, there will definitely be corrupt officials after the reform, but it will be better than now."

Zhu Biao thought of the gentlemen who gave him lectures, and had to admit that what He Qiu said had a certain truth.

Zhu Di was even more curious about He Qiu's overall planning, and couldn't help but ask. "Sir, can you explain to us the details of your reforms, we don't know what you're talking about."

He Qiu looked at the eyes of the two of them full of curiosity, but he was a little embarrassed, too bad, pretending to be too much. Some things I just heard the name, how do I know the real specific measures, and the times are different, whether they can be implemented or not is still two words.

But this thing couldn't be avoided, so he could only cough dryly twice and explain it to the two of them.

"This ban on opening the sea is best understood, in Tianjin, Hangzhou, Guangzhou and other places to set up a city shipping department, general goods are less taxed, valuable goods such as spices, precious stones and other luxury goods are heavily taxed, as for the specific tax rate can be handed over to the Ministry of Heaven."

"Supplemented by the new commercial tax, the project should be clear, and the officials should not be given the opportunity to get their hands on it."

"But you can be ruthless, you must know that as long as there is a 10 percent profit, the merchant will go into business; With fifty percent of the profits, they dare to take risks; If there is a 100% profit, these people dare to trample on the law. ”

He Qiu flaunted the knowledge in "Capital", which made Zhu Di and the others convinced, this is very good.

Aren't businessmen such people, since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, which dynasty and which generation did not implement the monopoly of salt and iron, but when will there be a shortage of private salt dealers, it is not because of huge profits.

As for the reform of the military system, He Qiu didn't know much, but talked about it superficially, so that the army of the Ming Dynasty would become a controlled army, so that the soldiers would not know the generals, and the generals could fight without knowing the soldiers.

The establishment of a military academy to enhance the strength of the Beijing camp and the Governor's Office of the five armies, when the middle and grass-roots officers were promoted, they all went to the military academy for training, the emperor himself served as the chief of the mountain, and the famous generals of each family became teachers.

The establishment of the General Staff Department, the reform of the military training system, etc., He Qiu only said a rough idea, but it was just such a rough outline, which also made Zhu Biao and the others excited.

If this step can really be achieved, where will Daming still be afraid of local rebellion. However, in He Qiu's heart, if he wants to do this, he may only have to wait for the musketeers to appear in formation.

Because the musketeers formed the fastest army, the tactics were relatively simple, and the strength of the army was mainly based on the weapons. He Qiu thought in his heart, he was guilty of sin, and he was only a weapon again.
