"So he's a wanderer. This is a little hard to find.”
Zhu Biao scratched his head. The whereabouts of people in the martial arts world were erratic. It was a little troublesome.
"Hehe, that's right."
Zhu Wu rolled his eyes. Go ahead and look for them. If you can find those two elders to come back and perform a crosstalk for me, I'll consider you capable!
He ate as he spoke, and the hotpot was almost completely used up.
Zhu Yuanzhang drank the last mouthful of Fat Otaku Happy Water and let out a long sigh of satisfaction. He patted his stomach and said,"It's been a long time since I've had such a satisfying meal. This hotpot is really delicious!”
"Younger Cousin's craftsmanship is still good. He can actually use simple ingredients to develop such a delicious dish.”
Zhu Biao also sighed.
"It's just a small trick."
"Speaking of which, if we can let the people of the world eat this hotpot, the world will be truly prosperous.”
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed.
"Haha, you're thinking too much." Zhu Wu shook his head and said,"It's already good enough that the people in the world can eat half their fill and not starve to death!" Want everyone to eat hotpot? In another thousand years."
Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang looked at each other in silence.
They knew that Zhu Wu was telling the truth.
Decades ago, the Yellow River changed its course, destroying millions of acres of fertile farmland. The Yuan Dynasty also levied exorbitant taxes, causing the people to rise up in revolt.
After that, there were years of war…
Since then, the people had never had enough to eat, and the famine that caused millions of people to starve to death occurred year after year.
It was only in recent years that the war had subsided and the people had begun to recuperate, allowing their lives to be slightly better…
But even so, most people would only eat two meals a day and would be full.
In some poor places, people starved to death every year.
The Imperial Court had just been established, and there wasn't much money and food to provide relief.
The commoners of the world were barely able to make a living…
It was simply wishful thinking to let them eat a delicacy as delicious as the hot pot.
However, compared to the previous years of war, the situation was much better.
Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a while and nodded.
"Although the lives of the commoners are difficult now, it's fortunate that he was born into a peasant family and understands the sufferings of the human world. That's why he strictly rectified the administration of officials. In terms of diligence, it's even rarer in ancient and modern times. I believe that the lives of the commoners will slowly improve.”
Zhu Biao, who was standing at the side, heard his father bragging about himself. He could not help but roll his eyes in his heart.
After all, you are the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Even the previous emperor of the Yuan Dynasty was sent to the grasslands to continue herding sheep. The entire Huang Jin family was torn apart, and many grassland tribes were destroyed. They even sent letters of surrender.
All the officials in the court sang praises of him all day long, and his name was recorded in the history books.
Haven't you heard enough?
He actually bragged about himself in front of a young man…
If it wasn't for the fact that he didn't dare to, Zhu Biao would have asked sincerely,'Father, don't you feel bored doing this?'
However, he didn't dare to say it out loud. Instead, he nodded with a serious expression and said,"That's right. Since the establishment of the country, I have been thinking of ways to reduce taxes for the people. I believe that the prosperous Zhenguan era will appear again!”
"Hehe…what's the use of reducing the land tax for the poor who can't afford to eat? How could a truly poor farmer have land? When he couldn't afford to eat, he had already bought the land! How can it be so easy to achieve Glory World?"
Zhu Wu shook his head and sighed.
"The emperor is also doing his best, but there's no other way!”
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned.
Of course, he knew this because he was that kind of farmer.
When he was young, his family did not have any land at all. He could only rely on farming for the landlord's family to survive.
Later on, the harvest was not good, and the rent was owed for years. The family did not even have enough to eat.
Later on, his father and mother starved to death in order to save a mouthful of food for him!
He and his elder brother used the only straw mat in the house to wrap their father up. They wanted to find a place to bury him, but they couldn't even find such a place!
In the end, he could only bury his father in a mass grave without a tombstone.
Even after he made a fortune, he couldn't find his parents 'bones even if he wanted to!
He could only set up a cenotaph in his hometown.
Even now, when he thought about it, he could still deeply experience the pain at that time.
Therefore, he paid great attention to the lives of the farmers.
He asked himself that he was already good enough as an emperor. Putting everything else aside, in all the dynasties, which emperor was as diligent as him?
He had even thought of a way to skin the officials alive. If this could not let the people live a good life, then it could only be said that it could not be saved by human power.
