The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 175 Our eldest grandson has great wisdom

Ye Yueqing frowned slightly as he listened to his boss's instructions, and after his boss had finished speaking, he couldn't help but reply:
"Boss, these are the entire family property of the entire chamber of commerce. If loans are added, the chamber of commerce may take several years to recover, or even"

Speaking of the latter, Ye Yueqing couldn't bear to continue talking. According to the owner's behavior, the entire chamber of commerce would be completely hollowed out, and there would still be a lot of debts.

The name of the Qunying Chamber of Commerce, not to mention the entire Ming Dynasty, but there are countless other large chambers of commerce that it is connected with. At such a critical moment, don't expect others to help you, it will only make things worse.

Although the grain loan will not be like a casino, the high interest rate will easily drag down the chamber of commerce. When the time comes, the entire chamber of commerce may fall apart.

The impact involved is not only related to Ming Dynasty, but also to the Western Regions, deserts, and grasslands. It can be said that many years of business operations have been destroyed.

"What you said makes sense, but I have my own considerations. The matter of money and food comes first. As for the people who borrow food, there is no rush. I will make a list later, and I will borrow according to the list."

"Borrow recklessly, no matter how high the interest is offered by the other party, just accept everything, except for the list, even if you take the initiative to borrow, don't bother."

Zhu Ying did not refute directly, but explained lightly.

As the saying goes, non-toxic is not a husband.

Regarding the grain loan, from the beginning of the loan, he never thought about repaying it. Not only did he borrow but did not repay, he also wanted to destroy all the black-hearted chambers of commerce.

The Qunying Chamber of Commerce has been in Daming for so many years, relying on the huge profits of Snowflake Salt, it is also very familiar with some top chambers of commerce in the commercial industry, and even knows the general details of each other.

To put it bluntly, basically in the early 25th year of the Ming Dynasty, large-scale chambers of commerce were able to be established, and each of them was very dark-hearted, and even colluded with the ministers of the court and the noble generals.

For example, the Guoheng case in Hongwu in 18 years is a microcosm.

The case involved 400 chief secretaries of Ming Dynasty, including Minister of Rites Zhao Mao, Minister of Criminal Affairs Wang Huidi, Minister of Military Affairs Wang Zhi, Minister of Industry Mai Zhide, etc., with a total loss of [-] million shi.

However, the actual loss is far more than that. The part recovered is from the officials, and the part from the grain merchants is difficult to recover.

This kind of situation is relatively big, and there are more small ones. Corruption is always inevitable, but it only depends on the size of the matter.

The Qunying Chamber of Commerce is also engaged in the grain business, and is very familiar with some major grain merchants.

As far as this situation is concerned, if one wants to become bigger and stronger, some unscrupulous means are unavoidable. The key point depends on where the black is.

The grain business of the Qunying Chamber of Commerce basically collects more and sells less, and uses the profits from Snowflake Salt to fill the gap.

And most of the black-hearted money of the big grain merchants came from hoarding goods.

Zhu Ying didn't have any psychological burden at all to attack these grain merchants.

Furthermore, the Qunying Chamber of Commerce is not a serious business organization, and it has never done less business without capital.

Ye Yueqing was still a little confused at first, but after hearing Zhu Ying's words, she immediately understood.

This trick of borrowing flowers to present Buddha can be said to be really strong.

After all, the Qunying Chamber of Commerce paid great attention to its reputation in order to conduct better business in Daming, and it will definitely have good results in the area of ​​grain lending.

Zhu Yuanzhang listened quietly from the side, with a smile on his face, and he felt very relieved in his heart.

This kid, Dasun, is really better than blue.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew best that people, especially the job of the emperor, should not be pedantic.

The boss Zhu Biao is good at everything, and he has nothing to say about Wen Tao and Wu Lue. The only thing that makes Zhu Yuanzhang not too satisfied is that he is too pedantic and has the stink of a literati.

In fact, in Zhu Yuanzhang's view, one should not pay too much attention to governing the world. Some things must be severely suppressed in order to maintain the dignity of the royal family, rather than blindly forbearance.

As an emperor, he has to be restrained by his officials, so what kind of emperor is he doing?

It's just that Zhu Yuanzhang also knows that someone like the boss Zhu Biao is already very good, at least there is no problem in governing the world.

Dasun Fangcai's performance, to put it bluntly, was unavoidable, but Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy to see this.

The means of the emperor is the root of the real control over everything, and you can't be fooled by the name of the emperor.

Zhu Ying finished talking about the food, and when Ye Yueqing was about to leave, she ordered again: "We must strictly tell all the doctors who go to Henan to treat the plague that they must wear a good mask and protect their nose and mouth well."

"Especially the water in the mouth must be boiling water. All the clothes that have been in contact with the patients of the related plague must be mixed with mugwort leaves and boiled together."

"Not only doctors, but everyone's clothes, especially close-fitting clothes, must be changed every day and washed with boiling water mixed with mugwort leaves. Anyone who does not obey this order will be directly ordered not to intercede."

Hearing Zhu Ying's serious warning, Ye Yueqing also understood that there is no small matter in front of the plague, so he nodded seriously and replied: "Yueqing understands, and will pass it on directly."

Zhu Ying nodded and said, "Okay, then hurry up and assist with this matter, and let Commander Jiang Yu handle it together."

Then he turned to the old man and asked, "Grandpa, is there any problem?"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said, "It's too late for us to be happy, so what's the problem?"

Hearing this, Ye Yueqing went out to look for Jiang Yu after saluting.

Such a large mobilization is not just a matter of the chamber of commerce. Naturally, it is necessary to use the resources of Ming Dynasty related to the post station to provide rapid support.

"Da Sun, what do you mean by the mask boiling water?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked with some doubts.

He can understand these two words, but in the case of the plague, it is inevitable that he does not understand.

Zhu Ying was not surprised when she heard that, the concept of hot water curing all diseases still does not exist in Daming today. There is no industrial pollution, and many people would not deliberately boil their drinking water.

As long as the water quality is clear, you can drink it directly when you bring it home. There is no concept of boiling. For generations, everyone has come here.

Zhu Ying explained: "When I was in the Western Regions, I established a medical school to train doctors. The main purpose of it was to treat trauma with the army, so that many soldiers could survive."

"The medical school not only studies trauma, but also has a certain understanding of various diseases, including the plague."

"The most frightening thing about the plague is that it is extremely contagious. It seems impossible to prevent it, so I started to study the way of infection."

"After long-term research, it has been found that the plague is like an invisible Gu worm, which attaches through the gas between breaths and enters through the nose and mouth. Therefore, it is only necessary to block the nose and mouth to reduce the possibility of being passed through."

"Under such circumstances, after joint discussions in the medical school, a mask was made to prevent the spread of the plague."

Hearing Dasun's explanation, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately understood the situation of the plague.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang did not read a lot, but the so-called specialization in the arts, he lacked medical knowledge and other knowledge just like business, but after some explanations from Dasun, he immediately understood.

But he continued to ask; "Then what's the matter with boiling water, could it be that boiling water can kill this invisible miasma?"

Zhu Ying nodded, the old man is still very smart, he can understand basically everything, and then explained:
"This is another discovery in the medical school. It is one thing to dispel miasma with mugwort leaves, but the effect of boiling water is more direct. These miasmas, in fact, are burned to death under high temperature in water, and can be eliminated to a large extent. , to eliminate the spread of the plague in an all-round way.”

"And the miasma can be attached to the water. Boiling the water and drinking it can also eliminate the evil miasma to a large extent, so as not to be infected by the plague."

"Actually, miasma worms are everywhere. Even in water sources where there is no plague, they will exist, but they will not cause serious trouble. Usually drinking water is best after boiling water, so that even diseases will be reduced a lot."

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang basically understood how to effectively block the plague. Dasun's words were also easy to understand, and the concept of boiling water was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and left a deep impression on him.

"Even if there are such methods, we will order the Imperial Hospital and the medical offices to make them pay attention." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Zhu Ying took out a book from the bookshelf, handed it to the old man and said: "Here are some relevant records, you can take it to the imperial physicians to read."

Zhu Yuanzhang took it, and flipped through it a little. There are not many records about medical skills, but more about some precautions, and the pages are not too many.

But what surprised Zhu Yuanzhang was that he saw the existence of a breakpoint in this.

So he said to Dasun a little jokingly: "Dasun reads a lot of books, and he can't punctuate sentences."

Faced with the old man's ridicule, Zhu Yingfei was not embarrassed at all, but said solemnly: "About sentence punctuation, my grandson has never learned seriously, but it is precisely because of this that my grandson discovered one of the extremely important things."

"Oh, grandson, let's hear it."

Zhu Yuanzhang asked, a simple ridicule can make Da Sun have some strange ideas, it is really a talent.

He found that every idea of ​​Dasun seemed very simple and obvious, but it contained indescribable deep meaning.

So now Zhu Yuanzhang will attach great importance to every suggestion made by Dasun.

Zhu Ying said: "My grandson discovered this problem when he was reviewing the memorials. Although it was difficult to read, he could still get used to it after persisting for a while. He also experienced a similar situation when he was studying earlier."

"At this time, Sun'er realized that the so-called difference between literati and common people, the use of sentence sentences, almost completely distinguishes common people from scholars, especially in elegant prose."

"Ordinary people are not all illiterate, and even some intelligent people know a lot of characters, and can write some simple letters by themselves."

"However, the existence of elegant script and broken sentences not only prevents these common people from reading classics, but also controls all the right to speak in the hands of literati."

"Sentencing seems simple after I get used to it, but the difference in punctuation can actually play a lot of tricks. It is the existence of such a gap that makes some officials deceive and act recklessly."

The way Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Dasun at this moment was no longer simply shocked and shocked. This kind of quick thinking was completely beyond his imagination, but what Dasun said earlier.

Zhu Yuanzhang also reacted quickly.

Dasun can always realize his own truth in seemingly ordinary things, and he is truly wise.

"In fact, we have also discovered this problem, but we have never really thought about it deeply. Many literati always laugh at us, saying that we are an old farmer who has not studied, and the edicts issued are all nonsense."

"But what did they think about it? Our edict is intended for those old peasants and ordinary people who don't understand the elegant language. What we worry about is that these low-level officials will misinterpret our meaning."

"Who else can't understand this kind of vernacular? We just want to let these officials who are trying to make a name for themselves have no way to do it."

Zhu Yuanzhang said with some sighs, in fact, Zhu Yuanzhang hadn't realized the meaning of the vernacular decree the first time.

I just thought that when I was a poor man, those officials always took the notices above and said what they wanted, so after I became the emperor, I wanted the people below to understand directly.

But I never thought about literati.

Under Dasun's explanation, Zhu Yuanzhang also quickly understood the key points. In fact, elegant writing and punctuation are the ideological imprisonment of the common people by literati since ancient times.

This is evolved from the previous dynastic culture, where the aristocratic family mastered talents and learning.

There is no poor family in the world, and the aristocratic family controls knowledge, forming a barrier for talent and learning. Even if you are literate, without the education of the aristocratic family, you will not even be able to understand books and classics, or even misinterpret their meanings, making it difficult to become a great talent.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang felt a little bit emotional about Meng Yuan.

Once upon a time, the land of Daming was ruled by aristocratic families. There were rumors of iron-clad aristocratic families and flowing dynasties.

In the Tang and Song Dynasties before the Yuan Dynasty, the emperor shared the world with the scholar-bureaucrats, not with the common people.

For a poor man like himself, even in the last years of the dynasty, without the recognition of the aristocratic family, it is impossible for his unique skills to have a bright future.

To a certain extent, I was able to establish the current Ming Empire. I really thank Meng Yuan. If Meng Yuan hadn't slaughtered these thousand-year-old families in the past hundred years, how could I have achieved today's achievements.

But at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly changed his expression and asked: "Let's see what the grandson means, it seems that he wants to cancel the sentence sentence and use the vernacular."

"However, grandson, have you ever thought that if the common people were enlightened, wouldn't this world be more chaotic?"

Today is different from the past, the current Zhu Yuanzhang is no longer the poor peasant of the past, this world belongs to Daming and also to the old Zhu family.

The Analects of Confucius, the people can make it, but not know it.

Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang also read it, and he was deeply impressed and recognized it, which is why the stereotyped essay appeared.
