Eh?
Zheng He saw Zhu Zhanhe's reaction and was immediately confused.
Zhu Di looked at Zhu Zhanhe with a smile. He was very pleased with himself.
Kid!
I've seen through you long ago!
It was useless to hide!
The sinister smile on Zhu Di's face immediately frightened Zheng He.
Zheng He was immediately frightened. What was this grandfather and grandson pair playing at? Why did they act like a family?
At this moment, Zhu Di impatiently sat down beside Zhu Zhanhe.
"Kid, have a good chat with grandpa!" he said with a smile.”
"Relax! Don't be so tense!"
Zhu Zhanhe smiled awkwardly." Imperial Grandfather, if you have anything to say, just ask. Grandson will tell you everything he knows!"”
"Good!" Zhu Di's smile became even more brilliant." Then, why don't you nag at Grandpa? Do you have any strategies to increase our tax revenue?"”
Taxes?
Zhu Zhanhe's eyebrows flew up.
Are you kidding me, Old Master?
You're the emperor of Ming Dynasty, and you're asking me about collecting taxes?
Wasn't this a little too much?
When Zheng He heard this, his entire body trembled and he was stunned.
Your Majesty, I know that the son of the Han King is powerful and you value him.
But how important was tax collection?
Emperor, you can still ask him?
Zhu Zhanhe looked at Zhu Di's expectant eyes and muttered in his heart.
He naturally had his own opinions about Da Ming's tax collection.
The biggest problem with Great Ming's tax collection was that business taxes were light while agricultural taxes were heavy. The farmers were getting poorer and poorer year round while the merchants were getting richer and richer.
In the later period of Ming Dynasty, it even evolved into the shameless words of "suffering the common people again"!
But how could he tell Zhu Di these thoughts?
Zhu Zhanhe hurriedly smiled apologetically,"Isn't Imperial Grandfather asking the wrong person?"”
"Firstly, I'm not an important official of the Imperial Court, and secondly, I'm not a professional. Even if Imperial Grandfather asks me, I don't know anything!”
Destroy it!
He continued to mess it up!
Zhu Zhanhe made up his mind not to reveal a single word!
In his mind, Li Shi Min's doubtful voice suddenly sounded,"Why would the emperor suddenly ask about your taxes? This is too strange."
Zhang Liang also said,"Previously, I asked about the disposal of Jiaozhi for no reason. There was no sign at all."”
Baiqi said," If the Emperor says that he trusts this kid, he trusts him too much. The Imperial Court keeps asking him about important matters. It's really strange!"”
Zhu Zhanhe was even more confused at this moment, thinking to himself, why did Imperial Grandfather suddenly target him?
However, no matter how they thought about it, they could not imagine that Zhu Di had a life simulator!
When Zhu Di saw Zhu Zhanhe's attitude, he gnashed his teeth in hatred.
How dare he say that he knew everything?
He patiently grinded for a long time, but he could not compare to Zhu Zhanhe who was bent on destroying it, and could not get anything out of it at all.
In the simulation, Zhu Di had clearly seen Zhu Zhanhe use the tax revenue from Yunnan to compete with half of the imperial court!
Such a powerful method, but he could not give it to him. The more Zhu Di thought about it, the more his heart itched.
"Grandson!" he advised earnestly. Imperial Grandfather is scared of being poor!"
"The money in the national treasury has been getting lesser and lesser these years. Grandpa doesn't even have the money to fight to the Wo Nan River!”
"Just say whatever you want. If you say it's right or wrong, Imperial Grandfather won't blame you!”
Zhu Zhanhe almost rolled his eyes when he heard that.
So, Imperial Grandfather, you're here to Versailles with me, right?!
Who doesn't know that you're the only one who's fought your way to the Wo Nan River in the past 500 years?
What was a mere Wo Nan River?
Zhu Zhanhe was extremely depressed.
What did this old man mean? What was he trying to do?
Don't tell me you're going to give me credit for what I said again!
Zhu Zhanhe pondered.
This old man is trying his best to push me higher. Could it be that he wants to use me to check and balance the princelings?
But what was the benefit of doing so?
The more Zhu Zhanhe thought about it, the more confused he became. However, he also knew the principle of standing high and falling hard.
The more you say, the more mistakes you make!
He might as well not say it!
" Cough cough…Cough cough cough…"
" Cough, cough, cough, cough…"
Zhu Zhanhe suddenly started coughing violently.
"What's wrong, Prince?" Zheng He was shocked. Are you alright?"
"No…I can't…My throat hurts…I can't speak…" Zhu Zhanhe pretended to be in difficulty.
When Zhu Di saw this, he was furious!
This kid is so cunning!
Acting with me again!
See if I believe it or not!
"Speak!" Zhu Di frowned and looked like he was about to lose his temper."Are you going to tell me or not?"
Zhu Zhanhe opened his mouth with great difficulty,"Abba, abba, abba…"?
"You!"
Zhu Di felt his blood surge and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood!
Bastard!
Zhu Di felt his fists stiffen!
Zheng He, who was standing at the side, had long been scared silly. He thought to himself, Your Majesty, why are you doing this? The Crown Prince of Han might not even know about the matter of taxes!
Phew...
Zhu Di endured it for a long time and finally calmed the anger in his heart.
"Immediately!" he snapped. Now!"
"Report to the Ministry of Personnel! I promote you to the City Secretary, in charge of the capital's market!”
"Give me a tax reform plan within three days!”
Zhu Zhanhe was dumbfounded when he heard that.
Let me be the mayor?
