"Alright, alright, alright. Sister, we'll listen to you!”Hearing Empress Ma's words, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression couldn't hold back anymore!
However, having a son for no reason was not a big deal to Zhu Yuanzhang!
One had to know that Zhu Yuanzhang knew hundreds of adopted sons. He had long been proficient in this kind of thing!
Although these adopted sons had changed their surnames after Zhu Yuanzhang proclaimed himself emperor and could no longer call him father, it was still a matter of returning to his old profession!
After all, Empress Ma was still sick. Zhu Yuanzhang would not disobey Empress Ma just because of this!
Besides, Zhang Che's medical skills were superb, and he also knew how to make salt. In addition, he could see things clearly. As such, it wouldn't be a problem for Old Zhu to take care of this kid in the future, even if he followed Empress Ma's wishes!
"Sister, rest well and do as you wish. Don't let your imagination run wild!”Zhu Yuanzhang patted Empress Ma's back!
Empress Ma nodded and leaned back on the bed!
Not long after, Empress Ma fell into a deep sleep!
Mr. Zhu thought for a moment. He still had to remind Biao 'er and Zhang Che about this!
No matter what, during Empress Ma's treatment, it would be best to let Empress Ma have her way first!
……
"That's why I said that if you look at the essence of some very small things, you will be able to see many things that you would never expect!”
"For example, the flow of people at a city gate. You can estimate the approximate population of the city!”
"For example, the amount and type of garbage in a city can be used to estimate the average living standard of the city!”
"You can tell if there's something hidden behind a small rise and fall in prices!”
"The world is so big that even the emperor's eyes and ears can't look around! In a place far away from the emperor, this memorial could be casually painted with a single stroke! However, they couldn't fake these tiny data!”Zhang Che shook his head and said with a smile!
"The memorial said that the local area was peaceful and everyone lived and worked in peace and contentment, but why is the price of grain so high that it's unimaginable? Why was the flow of people greatly reduced? Why did the people kill dogs for meat?”Zhang Che said, smiling.
Zhu Biao frowned as he pondered. It seemed that he still couldn't understand!
However, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was at the door, was already stunned!
Unlike Zhu Biao, Old Zhu had been the emperor for so long!
Therefore, Old Zhu had a deep understanding of what Zhang Che said!
The first was intelligence gathering!
When the emperor was in charge of government affairs, most of the work was carried out according to the memorials from various places!
But what if these memorials were fake?
Just as Zhang Che said, the heavens were high and the emperor was far away. There would always be people who would deceive their superiors and subordinates!
In order to deal with this, Zhu Yuanzhang established the Jinyiwei!
There were even Embroidered Uniform Guards stationed everywhere!
But what about the corruption of the Jinyiwei? Would he collude with the local officials to deceive his superiors and subordinates?
Would the local officials do a face-saving project to perfunctory the Jinyiwei?
It was not uncommon for the Brocade Guards to chase away beggars and refugees and clean the streets as soon as they arrived!
There was no end to corruption!
Even if Zhu Yuanzhang was so ruthless, there were still many corrupt officials!
He was troubled by this kind of thing all the time!
How could he truly know the current situation of his country? How could he not be deceived?
It could be said to be Tian Zi!
It was nothing more than an accurate location under the heavy smoke bombs!
If everyone had to tell the truth, then many people could take the position of Tian Zi!
It was precisely because there were people who would deceive their superiors and subordinates that politics was difficult to carry out!
Tian Zi was smart and had methods, so those people would be more obedient!
Tian Zi was stupid and weak, yet they dared to be so brazen!
In thousands of years, there was no one like him!
In the past, Old Zhu could only constantly send Embroidered Uniform Guards to strengthen his eyes and ears!
But now, Old Zhu seemed to have found a new path!
"Big data?"
Although he didn't know what big data was, it was the first time he had heard of this term!
However, Old Zhu immediately felt the ingenuity of this method!
Just as Zhang Che had said, not only was it difficult to fake such complicated data, but it was also extremely easy to determine!
Although it was unknown whether these data could be accurately judged, for the emperor, it was enough to just know in his heart where the problem was!
As an emperor, what he feared the most was not having problems everywhere!
Instead, they said that there were no problems everywhere, but there were problems everywhere!
The scariest thing was not knowing if there was a problem!
However, a trace of suspicion flashed across Old Zhu's eyes!
"This is the technique of an Emperor! Where did this kid learn it from?!"
