Chen Siwei looked at the two rows of cultivated land in front of him, wiped the sweat on his head, and said.

"Alright, that's the end of today's labor class!"

There was a cheer from the field, and everyone gathered around to ask.

"Senior brother, what story is Master going to tell us today?"

"Senior brother, when will we be able to eat the candy man sold in the city again."

“……”

Chen Siwei was so noisy that he could only yell helplessly.

"Don't make any noise!"

Rubbing his ears, he said to his new juniors.

"Isn't it all up to Master to make specific arrangements? What's more, Master was called into Kunming City today, and he hasn't come back yet, maybe he won't be back this afternoon, so I can only take you to study. ”

Now, the mood of these boys suddenly went bad, how good the master is, he talks funny, and they love to listen to what he says.

The senior brother can't do it, he always has a straight face, it's too serious, and it's not interesting at all.

Chen Siwei could see what they were thinking now, and he drove them all back to the academy with amusement and helplessness, waiting for He Qiu to come back.

It wasn't until it was almost nightfall that He Qiu returned to the academy full of alcohol, and Chen Siwei hurriedly handed over the prepared water, helped He Qiu wipe his face and sober up.

He Qiu was stimulated by the cold well water, and his drunkenness was reduced a little, and he looked at Chen Siwei with bright eyes and asked.

"What time is it now?"

"It's time."

When He Qiu heard this, the time was not too early, but he simply didn't feel sleepy, so he sat on the ground in the courtyard and chatted with Chen Siwei.

"It's been more than a year since we came to Yunnan, right?"

Chen Siwei nodded and said.

"Yes, a lot has happened in the past year. The juniors and disciples also slowly walked on the right path, learned a lot of knowledge, and took them to reclaim two acres of land, so that they could know the hardships of farming.

He also taught them how to build latrines and compost and ferment them, and now their respective clans know how to do it. ”

He Qiu was also quite pleased, before coming to Yunnan, he didn't expect that the Tusi here lived so poorly, or barbaric, they didn't even know how to build a thatched toilet, they were too far away from civilization, and it was not an exaggeration to say that they were savages.

This is already the Ming Dynasty, and it stands to reason that they have also been influenced by the Central Plains Dynasty for nearly a thousand years, but they are still like this......

He Qiu leaned back, looked at the bright moon in the sky and said.

"Do you know why they called me to Xipinghou today?"

"I heard that the Jinsha River waterway has been built, and the mined ore has been transported to the capital."

"Yes, the whole court is very happy, since the copper in Yunnan can be shipped out today, there will be a lot more businessmen coming to Yunnan, and the economy of the entire Yunnan will be revitalized, and the Xiping Marquis can earn a lot of money."

"However, they also told me another news, His Majesty intends to summon me back to Beijing, so let's do it."

He Qiu smacked his lips, a little unsure of what to say.

Chen Siwei was a little puzzled.

"Isn't it a good thing to go back to Beijing, why is Mr. so hesitant?"

"It's a good thing, I also want to meet your sister and brother, it's been more than a year, and since we got married, we have always been together less and more apart like this."

"However, these juniors and disciples of yours here in Yunnan, I don't feel at ease, I have only studied for about a year, and things have not yet gone on the right path, I left suddenly, what should they do, if they take them to the capital, I don't know how many people will be willing to go."

Chen Siwei interrupted He Qiu's words with a grin.

"The master is too worried, this group of boys even wants to run a few more times in Kunming, if they know that the master intends to take them to the capital, they will not be happy to die."

He Qiu scratched his head and asked with some surprise.

"Is that so?"

He Qiu and the deaths of these toasts, after all, they are separated by age and generation, and he is not very clear about the careful thinking between some children, but Chen Siwei and the students who came from Beiping know each other quite well.

"Yes, just today they are still clamoring to go to Kunming City again."

He Qiu didn't bother anymore, stood up, and said with a smile.

"Then tomorrow I will tell them that if they are willing to go, go to the capital with me, read thousands of books, and travel thousands of miles, which can be regarded as a grind."

……

In the capital, Zhu Yuanzhang's figure looked even older, he pulled Zhu Di beside him, danced excitedly, and laughed.

The lack of copper in the imperial court has been bothering Zhu Yuanzhang for a long time, otherwise he would not have issued treasure banknotes on a large scale, but with more and more contact with He Qiu, Zhu Yuanzhang also understood that treasure banknotes have their own drawbacks.

As long as the imperial court can't collect it from the people, and the large-scale issuance every year will definitely bankrupt the credit of the treasure banknotes, but he understands the reason, but he has no clue how to solve it.

Now that Yunnan copper has entered the capital, at least more copper coins can be issued to reduce the issuance of treasure money, if it is really not possible to solve the problem of treasure money, it is not impossible to return to copper money.

Zhu Di is also smiling, in the capital this year, he is also very comfortable as a prince, he himself has the experience of being in charge of the party, and he has led a large army, and his prestige is not much worse than Zhu Biao.

Moreover, the main focus of the DPRK and China is now on reform, which He Qiu did in Beiping first, and Zhu Di is also familiar with it.

There is no contradiction between father and son, Zhu Yuanzhang sincerely hopes that the government can be handed over smoothly, and he is unwilling to be like the Tang Dynasty, where a coup d'état will occur at every turn, which will only be a disaster for his Zhu family.

After Zhu Yuanzhang was happy, he suddenly said to Zhu Di.

"Fourth, I want to inspect the world, and you will handle the affairs of the DPRK and China on my behalf."

Zhu Di was caught off guard by Zhu Yuanzhang's sudden attack and said in surprise.

"Why did Father suddenly have this idea?"

Looking at Zhu Di, who was a little anxious, Zhu Yuanzhang motioned for him to calm down first, and then said slowly.

"Actually, I have always had this idea a few years ago, but it was not enough in the court at the beginning, and your eldest brother ...... So this idea was buried in the bottom of my heart, and I never dared to move. ”

"But now, the world's reform has begun to bear fruit, the treasury and the inner treasury are quite abundant, and I am already old, so I want to look at the world again, especially in the north."

"Speaking of which, since I ascended the throne of King Wu in the capital, I have rarely gone north, and I have not even seen these places in Beiping, which is not a good thing."

Zhu Di was silent, Zhu Yuanzhang's inspection of the world is too big, Zhu Yuanzhang is old, what if something goes wrong along the way?

Zhu Di couldn't help but continue to persuade.

"Father, go out to inspect the affairs of the world, do you want to postpone it, wait until the court and China discuss it."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Di, and finally nodded, he was confident that this matter would definitely be passed, and it was not a big deal.
