He had grown up!
Zhu Di didn't know why, but he felt his eyes turn red when he heard Zhu Yuanzhang's affirmative tone.
Although this wasn't much of a compliment,
However, to Zhu Di, this was also an affirmation from his father.
This was actually very important to Zhu Di.
"I'll leave these things to you to communicate with your big brother after we return to the Ying Tian Prefecture. You should learn more from your big brother now.”
"Sigh! I know."
After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Zhu Di's face immediately blossomed with a smile.
His father wanted him to learn from his elder brother, which naturally meant that.
He didn't need to study in the main hall anymore.
This was undoubtedly good news for Zhu Di.
"Master, the news you wanted has been sent back.”
After Zhu Yuanzhang appeased Zhu Di, who had improved a little.
The tightly shut door was suddenly pushed open.
An ordinary-looking man walked in respectfully.
"Fourth Brother, read it to us. People couldn't refuse to be old when they were old. I feel a little tired after eating!"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the secret report of the Jinyiwei.
He waved his hand calmly and asked the person to pass the secret report directly to Zhu Di.
This action seemed unintentional, but in fact, it was also a kind of recognition of Zhu Di.
Otherwise, the secret report of the Embroidered Uniform Guards would not have been handed over to Zhu Di.
"Father, it's just an investigation of Fengyang City's past and Liu Bai's!”
Zhu Di took the things that the person handed over.
After opening it and taking a casual glance, his eyes instantly became somewhat incredulous.
"How is this possible? How did Liu Bai do it?!"
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was leaning against the bed and waiting for his fourth brother to read the information to him, didn't receive it.
What he received was his son's exclamation.
"Tell me what you saw! Why are you exclaiming?”
She heard her son's exclamation.
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and his face darkened.
This little brat, I asked you to tell me about the information, and you're here to make me look forward to it?
It makes my heart itch!
"Cough cough…Father, don't be agitated! His son couldn't accept it!”
Zhu Di calmed down.
Only then did he slowly flip through the information in his hands.
"Fengyang County Magistrate Liu Bai, the top scorer of the Ming Dynasty's first Enke exam six years ago. At that time, you were the one who nominated him personally. He was appointed as the magistrate of Fengyang County two months after the nomination.”
" In the first year of his appointment as the magistrate of Fengyang County, he had dealt with the bandits in the surrounding area, as well as the tyrants and corrupt officials in Fengyang City. His methods were extremely ruthless. In the past six years, there have never been any rumors of villains blocking the road and tyrants bullying the villagers in Fengyang County."
" In the same year, Liu Bai led the citizens of Fengyang City to develop irrigation projects, bring water into the city, and irrigate the surrounding fields. At the same time, he confiscated several landowners who had privately annexed land in Fengyang City and distributed the fields to the citizens. The citizens of Fengyang City all praised his merits..."
" At the beginning of the second year, Liu Bai personally went to the surrounding counties to recruit merchants into Fengyang City. It began…The idea of using business to drive agriculture and industry to drive agriculture... Sigh, what does this train of thought mean? Why aren't there any annotations?"
...
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was originally engrossed in listening, heard Zhu Di's interruption. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
He could finally tell now.
Letting Fourth Brother read the information was simply a huge mistake.
This bastard…
"Why do you have so many questions?”
If they were in the Imperial Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang would have beaten Old Si with the soles of his shoes.
"Alright, alright, alright…Father, don't be angry, don't be angry! Anger hurts the liver."
When Zhu Di saw that the old man was about to fly into a rage, he suddenly looked like a kitten whose neck had been pinched.
He quickly continued reading.
"Liu Bai's plan to lure merchants into the city was very successful. For some reason, a large number of merchants were convinced by Liu Bai and began to pour into Fengyang City, rapidly driving the development of Fengyang City.”
" In the second year, a large number of factories began to appear in Fengyang City. Many people entered the factories to work after farming. The commercial tax in Fengyang City was adjusted. Some merchants left, but more merchants began to enter. The tax paid by Fengyang City…It's three times higher than the year before!"
"The third year…Fengyang City began to expand. After the drought in Huaixi, Fengyang took in nearly 20,000 refugees…After Fengyang accepted the refugees, the tax for the same year still doubled compared to the previous year…"
"The fourth year…New schools, hospitals, and other facilities in Fengyang. Urban area was expanded again. Taxes... Taxes have risen again…"
"The fifth year…After Liu Bowen's daughter came to Fengyang County, she had been staying in the Liu Bai family? The daughter of Liu Bowen, who was once known as the Twin Prides of Ming Dynasty together with the female students of Uncle Xu's family! He actually... Aiyo, Dad, don't hit me. I'll continue to recite, continue to recite…"
Zhu Di, who had heard this big gossip, was excited and ready to eat melons.
In the end, a large shoe sole directly hit him.
Then, he received Zhu Yuanzhang's warm and angry gaze...
The blind Zhu Di quickly flipped over the gossip.
However, when he read the last page, Zhu Di frowned.
"The current prime minister, Hu Weiyong, has tried to recruit Liu Bai many times. However, they were all rejected by Liu Bai. It was rumored that Hu Weiyong had concealed Liu Bai's achievements many times and intercepted Liu Bai's memorial. In the next few years, Liu Bai did not report to His Majesty again…"
When Zhu Di finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly emitted waves of killing intent.
"Good, very good! Hu Weiyong…"
