Ming Dynasty: The Sixth Prince's Secret Thoughts Eavesdropped on by Zhu

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the map intently, and did not move for half an hour.

At the same time, Zhu Hu waited boredly on the side, his eyes wandering around

Inadvertently, his eyes were drawn to a piece of music on the table.

On it, the words "southeast woes" are written.

[Is the Southeast form so severe?] 】

[I really want to go over and fight the Japanese as soon as possible.] 】

[Oops, I did something wrong, Lao Zhu didn't see it!].

Just when he wanted to know more about the content of the song.

Zhu Hu suddenly reacted.

Look at the folds belong to transgression!

He hurriedly withdrew his gaze and walked away quickly, secretly praying in his heart that Zhu Yuanzhang did not notice his actions.

His behavior evaded Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, but his heart voice could not escape.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't look back, and said in a deep voice:

"Panic, how to lead troops in the future. "

Zhu Hu was shocked when he heard this.

[Lao Zhu's asshole is opened?].

Although Zhu Hu was shocked in his heart, he didn't dare to show anything on his face.

His voice made Zhu Yuanzhang smile bitterly.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care about Zhu Hu's panic, turned around and said:

"Lu'er, this picture of yours is the best gift my father has received in decades.

What do you want? "

Zhu Hu saluted.

"My father has already agreed to the request of his son, how can he open his mouth again. "

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned, and then smiled:

"That Wei Sumo didn't give away his granddaughter to you, it's worth giving up so much for him. "

Zhu Hu Zhengse said:

"Wei Su also said those words for the sake of Da Ming, if the son didn't say good things for such a minister, wouldn't it be royal and ruthless. "

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said

"You think deeply, the prince also mentioned this matter a few days ago, and you brothers are working together.

I just read the twist and turn, and it happens to be related to your anti-Japanese affairs next year, what countermeasures do you have?"

When Zhu Hu heard this, a touch of disdain appeared on his face and said

"It doesn't matter what kind of scoundrel he is, if he kills all of them, it's over. "

His words reveal a deep hatred for the Japanese and a desire for war.

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he couldn't help laughing.

He shook his head and said

"It's not very old, and the ambition is not small, if it is so easy to kill it all, the temple will be smoking. "

There was both praise for Zhu Hu and worries about the future in his words.

Then, he changed his mind and asked:

"Let's go through Taicang City, do you have any opinions. "

Zhu Hu's heart moved.

It is written in history books that the sea ban originated from Zhu Yuanzhang.

He understands the long-term harm of the sea ban to the Ming Dynasty, and knows even more that this is the beginning of China's derailment from the world.

He said without hesitation

"Father, the mouth of the southeast must not be tightened, let alone cut off the southeast trade route!"

His words reveal deep concern about the maritime ban policy.

Zhu Yuanzhang was slightly surprised, how did this kid know his thoughts.

"Tell me why. "

Zhu Hu explained to Zhu Yuanzhang through the map.

"Father, it can be seen from the picture that further east of the Ming Dynasty, there is only the country of Dongying, and the rest is the vast sea.

To the south of the Ming Dynasty, there are dozens of countries in Fanbang, and there are countless countries to the west.

If it is a cargo trade, it is the most convenient and cost-effective way to transport the sea, and my Daming sea outlet is mainly distributed in the southeast.

The silk of the Ming Dynasty is sold to the southeast countries, and the profit is several times greater, and the father can ask them to settle with the Ming treasure banknote, which can also increase the credibility of the Ming treasure banknote.

If you give up the entire south for the sake of a small Dongying, it is really a sacrifice to the end.

This will not only make my Ming lose tens of millions of silver in income, but also make other small countries think that the Ming Dynasty's national strength is declining, and thus produce a sense of disobedience.

Dongying is thousands of miles away from our Ming Dynasty, and follow-up supplies are a big problem, so they can only fight the autumn wind every once in a while, and they can't do large-scale landings and engagements.

If the father and emperor let the southeast go alone, or even close the port and block the trade route, then the southeast will always be a rotten sore for the Ming Dynasty, rotten and pus-shedding.

According to Erchen's view, the southeast form should be better than the Northern Yuan, and it happened that the Northern Yuan was hit hard by Uncle Xu Da, and at this time, I was only afraid of the Ming Dynasty, and I could free up my hands to deal with the southeast. "

Zhu Hu's analysis has covered political, economic, and military perspectives, which is very in place.

Zhu Yuanzhang listened to Zhu Hu's analysis, and couldn't help but secretly praise this kid's ingenuity.

He understood that what Zhu Hu said was the truth, and he also knew that there were indeed many problems with the maritime ban policy.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said:

"You know what you said about your father, but if the Northern Yuan Dynasty is immortal, how can your father be at ease. "

Zhu Lu saw Zhu Yuanzhang's hesitation, he sighed and continued:

"Father, if you don't take care of this chaos, you will make a big mistake!

The

north side of the attack and defense of the alien, defending the city is easier than attacking the city, first transfer the troops to the southeast, and the civil strife can be cleaned up before you can rest assured and boldly go to the north.

Now the southeast is the old department of Fang Guozhen and Zhang Shicheng, and after a long time, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be another Li Guozhen and Wang Shicheng.

If the father trusts his sons, 10,000 soldiers, one year, to pacify the troubles!".

Zhu Yuanzhang thought about Zhu Hu's proposal repeatedly in his mind.

He did waver.

Especially the Daming treasure banknote mentioned by Zhu Hu just now.

After Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, he issued the official banknote Daming Bao Banknote.

The former Yuan also had banknotes like Jiaozi, but the former Yuan Bao banknotes had gold and silver in the treasury, and each time they were issued, they would be filled with gold and silver.

Da Ming can't.

Because when the Northern Yuan was defeated and fled, all the gold, silver and copper in the national treasury and local treasury were swept away!

The entire Ming Dynasty is now short of metal currency.

The mine has long been mined beyond recognition, and the new mine will not be able to meet the mining conditions for a while.

The Ming Dynasty still had to fight wars, and money had to be used everywhere, so they could only sell the credibility of the imperial court and constantly print treasure money.

However, after a long time, new banknotes continue to appear on the market, which will naturally depreciate the value of treasure banknotes.

This depreciation is not something that Zhu Yuanzhang can stop in a sentence or two, after all, the imperial court cannot completely control the market.

The only way to ensure the value of the treasure banknote in the Ming Dynasty was to strictly prohibit the use of silver taels by the people.

The opening of international trade that Zhu Hu just said and the mandatory requirement for neighboring countries to use Daming banknotes to buy Daming goods can indeed ensure that the value of Daming banknotes will not fluctuate too much.

As long as the national strength of the Ming Dynasty is strong enough, no matter how much the Ming treasure banknotes are printed, they can always be eaten by other countries.

It is equivalent to letting other countries come to benefit the people of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up.

This little bunny is smart.

(The actual issuance of the Daming treasure banknote was in the eighth year of Hongwu.) The treasure money system of the former Yuan Dynasty was a bit like the Brinton Woods system, using the silver standard, so the economy of the Yuan Dynasty was relatively stable for a long time.
