Chapter 308: The court emphasizes agriculture and suppresses business
Ningxia carpets are very famous in modern times.
But Chu Ze hasn't seen it.
He wasn't interested in the furnishings, and it was a waste of money to buy them.
But now it's different.
At a time when the transportation is not developed enough and the transportation is not convenient enough, these specialties are very precious in other regions.
And some merchants, although willing to sell these special products, but because they buy low and sell high, the common people can only make a lot of money by their hard work, while some merchants make a lot of money.
In addition, the current court is heavy on agriculture and suppresses commerce, resulting in very limited trade in commodities.
All of them severely restrict the development of commerce and trade.
It is better for the government to take the lead, formulate rules, standardize business behavior, resist commercial monopoly, guide commercial circulation, and activate the regional economy.
At that time, the people of Yinchuan will not have to rely only on sheep raising to make a living.
I can also have more income to support my family.
And his policy of strengthening the country can also be implemented faster.
The more Chu Ze thought about it, the more feasible he felt.
Anyway, the people sent by the court won't be able to come these days, so it's better to take Yinchuan as a case and take the lead in building a national demonstration site.
As soon as this idea popped up, Chu Ze's heart pounded.
He pulled the boss to sit down and asked in detail what specialties Yinchuan had.
The boss thought that Chu Ze wanted to get more specialties to go back, so he immediately told everything he knew.
Chu Ze listened very carefully and asked more seriously.
Until the end, the boss couldn't understand why Chu Ze asked this.
But he still honestly told Chu Ze everything he knew.
After Chu Ze listened, the plan in his heart had already taken shape.
He had to go back quickly, write down this method, and when he returned to Beijing, he would hand it over to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Chu Ze sat at the tea stall for more than an hour, and the boss also sat with him.
By the time the conversation was over, there was already a bit of ink on the horizon.
Chu Ze got up and thanked: "How many big brothers have pointed out." ”
"Hey, what kind of guidance is this, these are things that we people in Yinchuan know. Adults are willing to ask us, that is our honor. The boss waved his hand indifferently.
Chu Ze thanked him again.
When he left, he also wanted to pay the boss for some tea.
After all, he has been with him for so long, and he hasn't done a single business.
But the boss said that he wouldn't accept anything, Chu Ze had no choice but to quietly put some silver on the table when he left.
When the boss came out to close the stall, he looked at the silver on the table and was stunned, and then laughed: "Hey! This Lord Chu is exquisite. ”
Since the arrest of Yinchuan officials, Chu Ze moved his residence to the Chengxuan Political Envoy's Mansion.
Lan Yu was still in the barracks, and would only come to see him in his spare time.
Now, the study room in the Department of the Presidential Envoy is brightly lit.
Chu Ze was writing a note.
This busy, another half a month, when his schedule, after several improvements, is now finally completed.
only waited for Yingtian to return, and sent this journey to Zhu Yuanzhang.
And the officials sent by the court to replace them have also arrived.
Chu Ze met with the officials he replaced, and made a detailed handover.
After doing all this, Chu Ze went to find Lan Yu and did have the date to leave for Beijing.
Lan Yu was already ready to stop there, ready to go.
The reason why he has not moved is also waiting for Chu Ze.
Now that Chu Ze's matter has been dealt with, Lan Yu immediately said: "I've been here for so many days, it's useless to stay any longer, let's leave tomorrow." ”
"Okay."
Chu Ze returned home and immediately asked people to pack up their things.
Chu Ze wanted to go quietly and not alarm anyone.
But somehow, the news that he was leaving still spread.
The people came to see him off.
After seeing Chu Ze, they knelt down one after another.
An old man who looked like a kitchen raised his head and looked at Chu Ze with tears in his eyes: "Lord Chu, the people of Yinchuan, I heard that Lord Chu is going to respond to the sky today, so I specially came to see him off." ”
Chu Ze and Lan Yu hurriedly got down from their horses.
Chu Ze stepped forward and wanted to help the old man up: "Oh, you don't have to be so polite, we are doing an errand for the emperor, if you really want to thank you, thank your emperor, this is what the emperor meant, we are just running errands." Chu Ze deeply remembers his character.
A good reputation has to be followed by Zhu Yuanzhang first.
Otherwise, he would not be at ease.
When the old man heard this, he immediately said: "Don't worry, my lord, we are all the people of the Ming Dynasty, and we will always remember the emperor in our hearts." ”
"But Lord Chu is busy with our Yinchuan, and we are also looking at it."
"We know that Lord Chu is honest and honest, and we can't take out too good things, but we can still get these specialties." The old man turned his head, beckoned to the people behind him, and said, "Folks, take out all the things we have prepared!" ”
The old man's voice fell, and several groups of people immediately came over carrying several boxes.
They opened the box, revealing a pile full of specialties.
One of the most eye-catching is the brightly colored carpet on top of the first box.
Chu Ze: "? ”
It's familiar.
Chu Ze subconsciously raised his head, and sure enough, he saw the tea stall owner who was looking at him with a smile not far away.
Chu Ze: "......"
I see.
He said that how these people suddenly gave him so many specialties, eighty percent of them were promoted for him.
Sure enough, the old man's words also proved Chu Ze's guess: "The old man said that the adults like our specialties here, so we immediately prepared some." Not much, talk about it. Please also ask Lord Chu not to excuse himself. ”
Of course, Chu Ze will not postpone.
I've been busy for so long, what's wrong with collecting some specialties?
He's going to have to pay for his hard work, okay.
Chu Ze smiled so much that his eyes were crooked, and he said that he was embarrassed, but he didn't hesitate to move things behind him.
This is a gift, and that is called an upright.
I can see that Lan Yu's hands are itchy.
"Chu Ze." Lan Yuxian rarely calls Chu Ze like this, and usually calls his son-in-law affectionately.
It can be seen that he is really angry.
In the end, he gave him face, and he didn't get angry on the spot.
But Lan Yu's face is still not good-looking.
He strode to Chu Ze's side, grabbed Chu Ze's arm, pulled the person aside, and scolded angrily in a low voice: "Son-in-law, you don't want to die!" We came out to run an errand for the emperor, you received so many gifts in public, you are not afraid to go back and lose your head?! And they don't have much to eat, can you bear to even pick their skin? ”
Forget the words in front of "......", what's the name of the latter sentence?
What do you call him to skin them?
Chu Ze pulled Lan Yu's arm and whispered back: "If you don't accept this gift, the emperor will be even more worried." Father-in-law, don't worry, we'll be fine. As for their livelihood, we have opened a warehouse to release grain before, and they can't starve with such a little thing. What's more, if he goes back this time, he can bring them greater benefits.
They don't lose.
