"At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the people were difficult, and the treasury was not abundant, so we told you again and again, you must be diligent and thrifty, and you can't just want to enjoy the glory and wealth as soon as you gain power, we can't give it to you, the Ming Dynasty can't give you, and the people of the Ming Dynasty can't support your glory and wealth!

If you wait for the future of the Ming Kingdom to be rich and strong, it is not impossible to give you glory and wealth, but now, absolutely not! If you don't want to be this official, leave now, we will never force you to stay! ”

After pulling Fan Min down, Zhu Yuanzhang began to lecture the ministers again, and his eyes swept over the ministers, including those nobles who played soy sauce.

When Li Wei heard the last sentence, he couldn't help but move in his heart, he didn't expect that there would be such an unexpected joy today?

Just do it when you think of it, Li Wei will go out of the class to beg for bones when he raises his feet!

However, Zhu Yuanzhang's murderous gaze immediately fell on him.

Li Wei trembled and resolutely retracted his steps.

After all, this is Zhu Yuanzhang who kills people without blinking, and there is no shame in admitting cowardice, Li Wei comforts himself.

The early dynasty ended hastily in a dull atmosphere, and Zhu Yuanzhang returned to the Qianqing Palace in a huff.

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang left, Li Wei slipped away, he felt that those Wenchen looked at him very unkindly, for fear of being surrounded by them.

Although he ran fast, there was an old eunuch behind him who ran faster, and with all his might, he finally caught up with him.

"Master Li stayed, exhaled...... Whew, Your Majesty summons you! Whew......"

Xu Shou shouted breathlessly, shouting and scolding in his heart, this stinky boy, what are you running!

Hearing this, Li Wei turned his head to look at Xu Shou who was chasing behind him, stopped and said, "Your Majesty summoned me?" This...... Can it be another day? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's mood is obviously not good today, he was just scolded for asking for food, and he was angry, and now he is in a hurry to summon him over, definitely not to praise him, it is estimated that he is angry with him.

"Master Li, what are these words, how can Your Majesty call another day, hurry up and go with the old slave!"

Li Wei was dragged by Xu Shou to the Qianqing Palace with a face full of resistance.

When I came to the door, before I entered, I heard the sound of clanging and falling things inside, and Li Wei paused: "Father-in-law Xu, let's change the day, it's not early today, I think Your Majesty should rest early, so I won't bother." ”

Xu Shou looked at the sun that was about to turn to the south, squinted at Li Wei, and ignored him.

"Your Majesty, Master Li has arrived." Xu Shou said respectfully at the door.

"Let him get in!"

Li:......

Li Wei entered the door slowly, and saluted from a distance: "See Your Majesty's ......"

"Are you stupid? Won't the impeachment of someone else's recital be handed over to us privately? ”

Before Li Wei could finish his salute, he was loudly interrupted by Zhu Yuanzhang.

"That's not in order, isn't it?" Li Wei whispered.

"Why don't you follow the rules, you yourself are a cabinet scholar, and you will be handed over to us directly through the cabinet? You have to take it out in front of the court to offend people! ”

Li Wei suddenly said, yes, I'm still a cabinet scholar, I haven't been to the cabinet for a few days, and I almost forgot about it.

The cabinet worked well without him, no different from when he was there, he forgot the cabinet, and the people in the cabinet probably forgot about him.

"You idiot, do you know how many people you've offended by doing this? Those ministers must hate you to death! Silly, ......."

Li Wei pouted secretly, isn't this what you want?

In fact, if Li Wei was so reckless before, then Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely be happy, praise him in the court, and help him dig the pit deeper by the way.

But since Queen Ma told him about Anqing, his attitude has changed, for fear that in case, his daughter will follow a short-lived ghost and be widowed in the future.

Although he is not worthy of our daughter, he actually knows very well in his heart that Li Wei is a capable and capable person, and even belongs to the kind of person who cannot be used by me and must be killed by me, and this kid is helpless in Daming as a traverser, if he can recruit him as a colt and become a family with himself in the future, it is undoubtedly an excellent choice.

After having this idea, he had already begun to prepare for it openly and secretly, from digging a pit in the past to constantly reminding him, hoping that he could open his mind and climb out of the pit.

However, this dog thing doesn't have long eyes, and it drills into it by itself, and it can't even pull it!

Of course, this is only one of the reasons why he scolded, and the more important thing is that he was scolded for food in the court, and he was angry and used him as a punching bag.

However, what Li Wei did this time was indeed not wrong, Zhu Yuanzhang himself hated corrupt officials and corrupt officials! The words he said in the court were true feelings from the heart.

Li Wei's ears were buzzing with his loud voice, and he knew that it would be no good to call himself over, everything that was here and that was fake, and it was true to scold him for being angry.

After scolding for a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang took a breath and calmed down a little.

"How did you find out that Fan Min's family spends so much every year?"

After calming down, Zhu Yuanzhang asked again, he hadn't forgotten this business.

"Huh? Oh this. ”

Li Wei, who originally regarded Zhu Yuanzhang's scolding words as a fart and didn't go into his brain, was suddenly asked about business, and he didn't react for a while, and then said after a pause:

"This is sampling statistics, then calculating and analyzing, and drawing conclusions, just that's it."

Zhu Yuanzhang: "......"

To be honest, I didn't understand it, but I can't show it.

"Tell me about it." Zhu Yuanzhang said calmly.

"This ......"

Li Wei scratched his head and thought about it, there happened to be his statistical results still stored on the computer, so he hurriedly took out the computer in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Your Majesty, look, this is my statistical chart."

Zhu Yuanzhang leaned in curiously, and looked at the table that Li Wei opened, the data table on the left, and the histogram chart on the right, which could clearly see the consumption of Fan Min's family in each month.

"Your Majesty, you see, first of all, these data, you are like oil and salt, he has bought so much these days, and then the data is missing some days later, but he must have used these daily necessities, it can be speculated that he bought them from other shops that I didn't hear about, so he made up for it according to the consumption frequency of the previous days, and then perfume, soap, and ......"

Li Wei first introduced the data, and then introduced the meaning expressed in the chart, after calculating the consumption pattern of these two months, considering the actual situation, you can roughly calculate the consumption situation for the whole year.

Of course, the error of this sampling method is still quite large, so Li Wei gave a conclusion of 600 to 800 percent at that time, but it is enough to use it as a reference.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at these data charts, his eyes were solemn, and now he can roughly understand how Li Wei came to those conclusions, but these things obviously require strong arithmetic skills to make, and Li Wei also uses a computer, which is difficult to copy, and arithmetic is not something that can be taught in a while.

It's a pity that this thing can't be snatched!

In fact, if he had to come to this conclusion, as long as he booked Fan Min's family throughout the year, it would be more accurate, but it would be time-consuming and laborious, and the gains outweighed the losses.

Anyway, this kid is so proficient in arithmetic, it's quite suitable to throw it to the household department, but the Ministry of Industry can't do without him for the time being, hey, it would be nice if he could be cut in half......

Li Wei didn't know that he was almost divided in half to the Ministry of Works, and he was still gushing about the functions of the chart.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang had heard enough, and he knew that these things could only be used by Li Wei himself for the time being.

"Okay, let's get it, let's put it away."

"Hey, okay."

Li Wei obediently put away the computer, trying not to mess with this bad old man who was in a bad mood.

"Do you know what happens if you do it today?"

Waiting for Li Wei to put the computer away, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said.

Li Wei thought for a while, and said indifferently: "Isn't it just offending those civil officials, anyway, I have already offended, not this time." ”

As an employee, his mentality is different from that of the boss, anyway, I do my job, whoever provokes me will scare whom, and if I break up, the boss is worried about cleaning up the mess, it's a big deal to pat my ass and leave.

"Hmph, you offended them this time, if we expect it to be true, after you do this, from now on, these magnates will have to live frugally, at least on the surface, no one dares to be extravagant and wasteful!"

Anyway, he, the emperor, has advocated thrift several times, but these people don't listen, after all, their own money, your emperor can't stop people from spending it.

But after Li Wei did this, you have money, right, then you tell me where your money came from, and I will check you if the source is unknown!

Good guy, who is not afraid of this!

"Oh, that's a good thing!"

Li Wei looked like I had done good deeds, I had merit, and I was waiting for praise.

Zhu Yuanzhang sneered, it seems that he doesn't know what to do if he doesn't let this kid suffer a little, just wait, civil officials are not easy to bully, and it won't take long for him to come back with revenge.

After a while, the crown prince Zhu Biao also arrived at the Qianqing Palace, and it was Zhu Yuanzhang who specially called him over.

Although Fan Min was taken down, but the other bribes haven't been there, he didn't plan to kill Fan Min so simply.

The little pig worships the old pig, Li Wei worships the little pig, and after the worship, the tribute table is served...... Phew, let's get down to business.

"You know everything in the court, right?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

"Yes, father, the son has already received the news, Lord Li is very resourceful, and he can find this moth for the court through this method, which can be regarded as a great achievement!"

Li Wei was overjoyed when he heard this, and turned his gaze to Zhu Yuanzhang, look at you, how sensible people are, come up and give a great credit, and then look at you, why is the gap between the same surname Zhu so big?

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced back at him coldly, and he could easily see what Li Wei's eyes meant.

"I'll talk about it later, now let's talk to you about how to deal with those corrupt officials and corrupt officials!"

Regardless of Li Wei's resentful eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang directly skipped the stage of expression and said to Zhu Biao.

When Zhu Biao heard this, he frowned slightly, he knew his father's temper, this was the rhythm of killing again.
