People in the Ming Dynasty are lawless

Chapter 686: Lao Zhu’s great wisdom!

Zhu Yuanzhang actually has a say on this point, because as a commoner, he knows what the common people are thinking.

Zhu Yuanzhang actually understood the changes Chen Han was making, because as an ordinary citizen, he knew what the people were thinking back then.

Even now, he knew what the common people would think - the common people would never care what kind of strategies you would give us, nor would they care what you wanted to turn us into; they would never care who would be the officials, nor would they care who would be the emperor.

Unless the emperor could meet him in person, he would not care about these things at all.

On the contrary, what they care about most is money. Whether it is food or local specialties, whether it is life or dealing with people, these things cannot avoid weddings and funerals, whether it is officials or ordinary people, they cannot avoid it.

It’s just that one is determined by personal preference, while the other is forced.

So Zhu Yuanzhang still has a say on this point.

Chen Han said that one of the ways to improve the people's economy this time is to give them money.

This method may sound a bit absurd - after all, money is more or less too direct. If this is really done, wouldn't it encourage this kind of trend? If this is done, what will others think?
Because of this, even after Zhu Biao heard Chen Han's idea, he was a little hesitant. Because he also felt that he still had some understanding of the common people - after the common people got the voucher, they might not know what the voucher was for.

You still have to spend a lot of time explaining these things, and you may even have to tell them how to use them. If the people find it very troublesome, the misunderstandings that arise will have to be resolved bit by bit by the government.

This is also - this may waste a lot of manpower and material resources. This even raises a question: Is this voucher worth it?

If so much manpower and resources are wasted on this voucher, then this thing will seem not so worthwhile.

It may even trigger some crises - for example, if ordinary people can get vouchers today, what should they do if they don’t have these vouchers next time?
Are we really going to let these ordinary people fall into conflict one by one under such circumstances? Are these ordinary people actually quite pitiful, but should they be made to bear such an unnecessary risk? In fact, this is not necessary.

It is precisely because of this that when Zhu Yuanzhang heard this question, he actually didn’t know what to do.

After seeing the expression on Zhu Biao's face, Zhu Yuanzhang knew what he was thinking - after all, he knew his son best.

As soon as he saw Zhu Biao hesitating, he knew that he must be thinking about something else at this time.

Otherwise? There is no way I would hesitate like that. After all, in this situation, everyone is in such a hurry and doesn't have that much time to listen to you talk about other things.

Because of this, when I heard this topic now, I didn't know what to say. The old man thought of this question - could others not think of it?
In fact, everyone has thought of it. After all, everyone is smart, and since they are smart, they should understand that under the current circumstances, it is best not to make some policies that will cause misunderstandings among everyone.

Not everyone will benefit from the reforms that Chen Han is currently carrying out.

Since some people really have no way to gain benefits in this situation, or even their benefits are deprived, they will definitely do something under such circumstances.

If they can't be suppressed, then there will be a very serious problem. It is precisely because of this problem that he will not be so active in preparation under such circumstances.

So now, seeing that his son had thought so much, Zhu Yuanzhang said again: "In fact, what you are thinking about is that you are afraid that the people will get it today, but they don't know what to do next time, right?"

Zhu Biao watched as his father picked up the hoe and started plowing the land - he really looked like an old farmer.

Although my father has not had much time to do farm work in recent years and therefore seems a little rusty, it can be seen that my father still wants to return to the state of an old farmer.

He actually envied this situation - after all, after hearing so many things happening below, if there really was someone who could help them, everyone hoped that this would happen.

But in this situation, it's like finding out that his father wants to step back and that he has to deal with many things himself. In this situation, he can only slowly adapt to this rhythm.

To be honest, he actually felt that he was not smart enough, not clever enough, and not as resolute as Chen Han sometimes. Chen Han's approach was not as hesitant as his own, and he could even say that he thought too much.

But Chen Han, even if he is not as impulsive as a young person, is the type who does whatever he thinks of. He doesn't think too much about the consequences like himself.

Of course, my idea is actually correct - after all, if a big event is about to happen and a big event is to be promoted, then you must think carefully about whether it is worth doing so and whether it is worth letting everyone fall into a rush.

After all, Chen Han’s method is not as simple as just spending money - it also involves the issue of whether all the government offices in the world can cooperate.

Not every official in every yamen can be as united and coordinated as the reform team under Chen Han's governance, so their efficiency will definitely be very low.

I am afraid that if these vouchers are not distributed, it will cause some conflicts below.

Officials already had some opinions about the current Ming Dynasty's reforms - they were not about to express their opinions, nor did they dare to.

Chen Han's current approach is somewhat similar to that of his old father - he is resolute and ruthless, and also applies harsh punishments. This kind of ruthlessness is not just about executing you immediately after catching you, but about ruining your reputation after catching you, and then letting everyone in the world see that those who ruined the reform did not want to let everyone in the world see that the reform was harmful, but wanted to gain fame. Chen Han is capable of doing such a thing.

Of course, Zhu Biao essentially disagreed with his approach. He knew very well that some officials actually agreed with Chen Han's approach, but they had to hinder some of Chen Han's actions.

What Chen Han needs to do now is not to make everyone in the world recognize him, nor to make everyone in the world think that his reforms are definitely correct.

He wanted everyone in the world to see the results of the reform in the shortest possible time.

He wants to use this achievement as a guarantee - just like borrowing money from others, he must have something to guarantee that the borrower will feel at ease to lend you the money.

His purpose in doing this was actually to let the whole world see in the shortest possible time that reforms will definitely make our lives better as quickly as possible.

Because of this, his actions were sometimes deliberately impatient. But this impatience was not based on what he thought - he wanted to make everyone unaware that he was not what you civil servants said, "only using harsh laws to achieve your goals."

In fact, his purpose is very simple, which is to let everyone in the world see: It turns out that everything I do is for you to live a better life;

In order to make all of you live better, I have to use this method. In this case, it can be seen that Chen Han is actually using the simplest method to let everyone in the world see his results first. To make everyone in the world believe in him under this situation, so that he can have a more comprehensive motivation.

Chen Han had explained these reasons to him, and also said that future reforms would definitely not be so radical - because such radical methods are only suitable for a very short period of time, allowing everyone in the world to see the benefits of reforms.

It doesn't mean that Chen Han must follow this method all the time - Chen Han will definitely formulate a strict internal inspection system to sort out all the problems that arise during the rapid advancement of reforms in the early stages.

Why do you do this?
In fact, the reason is very simple - it is because everyone in the world is staring at Chen Han. If Chen Han cannot satisfy everyone in the world, they will definitely think that Chen Han is an egg with a crack, which will definitely attract countless flies to stare at the crack.

This made it impossible for Chen Han to concentrate on doing things, and because of this, he couldn't stop - because his carriage had to rush forward forever and crush all obstacles first. No matter whether the obstacle was good or bad, he had no way to introspect.

This is the future trouble that Chen Han has to face now.

But he had to bear this trouble. And now what he had to do after the injury was actually very simple, which was to help Chen Han get rid of these difficulties to the greatest extent possible.

Because no matter what Chen Han does now, it is essentially for the better of the Ming Dynasty. Essentially, he wants everyone to see that the future of the Ming Dynasty is very good and it cannot be a bad path.

It is for this reason that when Zhu Biao sees Chen Han working so hard to move forward - such a young man who has staked his entire life and even his future on this matter, he feels that he is somewhat incompetent.

As the Crown Prince, he was in charge of all government affairs, but all he could do was watch Chen Han charge forward while he could do nothing. At this time, he was actually thinking: If I continue to be so incompetent, who can I be worthy of? I would be worthy of the trust of my father and my son-in-law.

So he is under tremendous pressure now - his father was such a great emperor who founded the Ming Dynasty, and now he has to hand over the country to him. Not everyone can bear this kind of pressure.

At the bottom, he had to bear the pressure brought by such an outstanding talent as Chen Han. Chen Han's excellence was not only because he came from modern society and possessed knowledge that surpassed his own by hundreds of years, but more importantly, Chen Han was now brave enough to fight, kill, and fight, and dared to rush forward in everything.

No matter how much pressure he faced later, he shouldered it all on his own, allowing everyone to see that the Ming Dynasty was capable of reform.

No matter how many people raised objections, as long as Chen Han was determined to do so, he would move forward courageously. This courageous move made Zhu Biao feel a little surprised - he never thought that Chen Han could do this.

Chen Han could actually rush forward so desperately, and he could even see the fruitful results ahead, but he himself was a little afraid. This was the essential difference between the two people, and this was why Zhu Biao had always admired his son-in-law very much.

Now, seeing his son's hesitation, Zhu Yuanzhang threw the hoe aside and said to him, "Look at this field. Do you see anything?"

Zhu Biao then took a serious look at the field his father had plowed - some of it was messy and some of it was crooked. After all, he was not a regular farmer and did not have much experience, so even if he worked very hard, the furrows and ridges in the field still looked messy.

Zhu Biao didn't know what his father wanted to say. Zhu Yuanzhang then said: "The land you see now is what your father left behind.

"If you take this as the world, think about it, what are you going to do now?
“Are you going to give up just because you see this land is in such a mess?

"Is it because you feel a lot of pressure after seeing your father leave the world in a mess?

“What you need to do is not stand here by the field and feel sorry for yourself, nor be afraid to go forward and repair the land because your father has messed it up.

“You don’t have to abandon the whole piece of land and start over.

"What you need to do is to straighten out the mess your father has made on this land."
