Ming Dynasty: At the beginning of the game, Lao Zhu resigned and retired.

Chapter 992: The changes in China are so gratifying

Of course, that's why he didn't kill Zhu Yuanzhang.

Mainly, there are two reasons.

One is that the two families are now "neighbors", and the other party is also the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

If they are really provoked, this so-called China will not be able to withstand the killing of the imperial guards in the city.

Another reason is that Mr. Hu really thinks that Old Zhu is a workaholic.

Moreover, this guy's learning ability is really strong.

It is obvious that the policies and rules in all aspects of China are very different from those in the Ming Dynasty.

But Zhu Yuanzhang, who was in charge of all affairs, not only got the hang of it with some difficulty, but also absorbed and learned very quickly.

Now, not only has he mastered the government affairs completely, he can also discuss with Mr. Hu the rationality and mistakes of the government orders.

Although it was common for him to be pushed against the wall by Master Hu and even get glared at by him, that was a common occurrence.

But to be honest, Zhu Yuanzhang had now begun to gradually break free from the shackles of the original small peasant economy in politics and began to move towards becoming an orthodox politician.

Of course, this matter only has a direction.

After all, Uncle Hu himself is only a novice, how can he teach Zhu Yuanzhang thoroughly?

However, these two old men have a favorable condition that no student of political economy in Mr. Hu's previous life had ever had, or even dared to think about.

That is they can practice on the spot.

Whenever there is an idea, as long as the two of them think it over and find it feasible, they can start implementing it locally.

Then during the execution process, the two old masters will observe and continuously receive feedback.

Then, in this process, we constantly check for omissions and fill in the gaps.

Although Mr. Hu has not systematically studied political economy, he knows how to follow the rules, as he has lived in a peaceful and stable big country.

Therefore, he was responsible for drawing the direction, and Zhu Yuanzhang, who was full of brute force, was responsible for pulling all the people of China to work in this direction.

In this way, how can it not succeed?
But as China prospers, the siphon effect it creates is extremely powerful.

The key point is that the administration of officials in China is extremely clean.

It’s not that all the officials in China are good people and don’t know how to abuse power and be greedy for money.

Instead, China was the first to give what was due.

Although history books often say that a corrupt official embezzled hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, in fact, judging from the early years of the Hongwu period, most of those who were killed by Zhu Yuanzhang for corruption actually only embezzled a few thousand taels of silver at most.

That wasn't just the result of one single corruption; it was accumulated over many years.

But now?

For a minister like Mao Xiang, his annual salary would be more than three thousand taels.

Not only does this money not need to be concealed, it can also be spent openly, not to mention that he receives more "allowances" than lower-level officials so he doesn't have to worry about household expenses.

This actually eliminates the urge of many people to engage in corruption.

If you are not short of money, why take the risk?

Then, there is China's "public disclosure" system.

The relevant policies of the Chinese nation are announced on special notice boards in front of every government office.

Mr. Hu even specially made the entire notice of China into vernacular Chinese.

That is real, and we strive to make it understandable to anyone who can read.

Not to mention there are specially printed booklets.

These are given away free of charge.

It not only contains an introduction to all aspects of Huaxia, as well as the rules that should be followed when coming to Huaxia, but also reminders of which government office to go to for any matter. It can be said that compared with the Ming Dynasty, Huaxia is so advanced that it does not even look like a vassal state.

Moreover, what is China’s biggest advantage now?
Of course, there is a lot of money and supplies.

The wealthy merchants and big families in Yingtian who were attracted by the previous "investment promotion" now feel that they have found their source of income for the next fifty years. How happy they are.

A lot of money was sent to them, and they also helped to recruit people to do the work.

Mr. Hu was also very clear about his side. Although the meal fees were clearly charged based on the number of people, he used a huge amount of supplies, leaving everyone inside and outside the hotel speechless.

Dry rice, pickled vegetables, diced meat, salted fish and a big bowl of egg drop soup...

Good man, Zhu Yuanzhang now feels that eating at the construction site is not a show.

Because although the food there is not exquisite enough, it is definitely enough to eat and fill you up.

As for engineering construction, there is no need to mention it.

After eating their fill every day, they also get paid. Who wouldn’t be satisfied with such a job? Who wouldn’t cherish it?

There are even people in Yingtian Prefecture who don't have much land and don't even want to take care of their own spring ploughing, and just want to come here to find a job.

But this made Zhu Yuanzhang even more annoyed.

Why is it that China can do so well, while our Ming Dynasty is outdone?
But Master Hu nodded with a smile.

"What else?"

"It is true that the Ming Dynasty is a great and powerful country and the Han Dynasty is an orthodox dynasty."

"Look at our China, the boat is small and easy to turn around."

"Zhongba, you must have realized that if we find any problems here, you will find them in three to five days at most."

"Then, we will make adjustments as soon as possible, discuss it with others, and then we can push for its implementation."

"But what about Ming?"

"There are still many places in the Ming Dynasty that are only Ming in name only. The real power is in the hands of those local emperors. Why do you think your decrees can be implemented?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was so confused by what Mr. Hu said.

Just at this moment, Lan Yu suddenly came running in.

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw Lan Yu's hapless smile, a nameless anger suddenly burst out from his chest.

"Lan Yu, are you feeling itchy today?"

Lan Yu, who had come in to report the news, had his smile froze by the roar.

"Your Majesty, I didn't make any mistakes. What's wrong?"

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that Lan Yu refused to admit his guilt and even dared to ask questions, Zhu Yuanzhang kicked him.

"Did Weiyong ask you to stay at home and exercise every day to take care of your body and not drink alcohol?"

"Damn it, we still want to see Weiyong's new way of training soldiers."

"But how many days did you, a piece of crap, waste?"

When Lan Yu heard this, the smile on his face disappeared completely. He pouted helplessly and secretly glanced at Master Hu. Seeing that Master Hu didn't say anything, he spoke cautiously and aggrievedly.

"It's not that easy to quit drinking!"

"But Your Majesty, my health is much better now. I have made those women at home obedient to me!"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Lan Yu with his eyes slanted, without saying anything, just listening.

We are all grown men, who would give in on this matter? (End of this chapter)
