Ming Dynasty: Every day, Zhu Yuanzhang is in trouble

Chapter 345 Stab

Zhu Yuanzhang obviously understood the principle of double-entry bookkeeping that Mei Yin mentioned.

Zhu Yuanzhang was not a real rough man.

The unfortunate experience at the beginning made it impossible for him to continue his studies.

But later, when I had the opportunity, I continued to study hard and ask questions.

There are many more key things to experience.

He already knew how to keep accounts.

After all, when I was working in the army, I had to keep accounts for logistics, food and other things.

Therefore, he was well versed in the accounting methods currently used in the Ming Dynasty.

It was on this basis that he quickly saw through it.

The advantages of Mei Yinnong's accounting method.

It is indeed as Mei Yin said, this method of accounting is flawless.

As long as accounting can be done in this way, the possibility of false accounts and errors will be greatly reduced.

Even if someone wants to cook the books, it's not that easy.

What's wrong with Mei Yin's brain, this bastard?

This... could actually be done by him so easily?
It was really through his own efforts that he directly promoted the development of the new accounting method.

However, after thinking about it for a while in shock.

Think again about the arithmetic textbook that Mei Yin produced.

The shock in my heart subsided a lot.

It seems... relying on Mei Yin's attainments in arithmetic.

It’s no surprise that this new accounting law enforcement has come about.

It's something he can do.

Zhu Biao, Empress Ma and others all had similar reactions.

I was also shocked by what Mei Yin made.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang's bright eyes soon became unsettled after meeting Mei Yin's eyes.

And turned his head to the side.

Don't look at Mei Yin.

"It's okay, just so-so."

Zhu Yuanzhang gave his own evaluation.

Mei Yin listened to his father-in-law's hypocritical answer.

Some want to laugh.

Old Zhu is really just trying to be stubborn.

"Oh, Father, this double-entry accounting method, as well as some other important data, needs to be recorded in both uppercase and lowercase.

This can avoid people from tampering with the results.

It's the kind of capital letters you see in arithmetic textbooks."

Mei Yin seemed to remember something and reminded Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said, "You don't need to tell me this. I have already issued an order for all places to do so."

When talking about this, Zhu Yuanzhang seemed a little arrogant.

I am one step ahead of Mei Yin in this regard!
Finally, I got in front of that bastard Mei Yin...

However, this joy only lasted for a short moment and soon disappeared.

Because he realized that this guy was the one who came up with the idea of capitalization.

It seems that there is nothing to be proud of in promoting this thing that Mei Yin created.

This is still a beautiful achievement.

Damn it...I met this bastard Mei Yin.

Why do I always get frustrated?

"Brother-in-law, good! Good! This is a good idea!
With these, the local finances and control of our Ming Dynasty will be greatly developed.

It can also tie the hands and feet of those officials to a great extent.

Don’t let them get greedy…”

Zhu Biao gave Mei Yin a thumbs up and kept praising him.

Compared with Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao, the elder brother-in-law, seems much more honest.

Unlike Lao Zhu, who says one thing and means another.

"Is there any other solution?"

Zhu Yuanzhang spoke again.

When Zhu Biao heard what his father said, he was stunned.

No... Can my father still have some shame?

That's not enough.

Mei Yin shook his head: "No more, that's all."

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted and said, "That's all. Just do it this way."

Not too bad.

You barely made it this time.

Otherwise, I will chop your mouth off!"

Hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said, Mei Yin secretly curled his lips.

It would be great if Old Zhu really killed himself.

I couldn't ask for more.

Li Jinglong lowered his head and dared not look at his uncle.

Otherwise, he was afraid that he would laugh out loud if he wasn't careful.

My uncle will see it and give me a beating.

That would be such a loss.

It's really hard for my uncle to step down.

I've seen people taking advantage of a situation to get out of trouble, but I've never seen anyone do it like him.

What does it mean to say one thing and mean another? This is a typical case of saying one thing and thinking another!

Zhu Biao was different from Zhu Yuanzhang. He didn't have so many burdens.

"Second brother-in-law, your methods are particularly good.

Especially the double-entry bookkeeping method.

Once it can be popularized, the Ming Dynasty will benefit greatly in the future.

However, I think there are many aspects of this thing that require specialized study.

It only works if someone with experience provides guidance.

Otherwise... my second brother-in-law would like to trouble you for a moment. I will go back and ask the teachers at the Imperial College to come and consult you.

You teach them.

Then let them teach the students in the Imperial College.

What do you think, brother-in-law?
This stuff is really important.

If enough people learn it, then next.

When we carry out land surveys in the Ming Dynasty, it will become much easier..."

Zhu Biao directly stated his request.

Zhu Biao could clearly realize how important what his second brother-in-law gave him was.

I also know what methods can be used to promote it.

After hearing what Crown Prince Zhu Biao said, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately felt relieved.

I feel that it was a very wise decision to invite my own son here this time.

Biao'er was simply his own mouthpiece, saying out loud everything that was in his mind.

Actually, he thought the same thing in his heart.

It was just because of this guy Mei Yin that he finally made a death-defying remonstrance against himself.

And I just said those words again.

Under such circumstances, it is somewhat difficult for me to open my mouth and say these words.

Fortunately, my own Biaoer is very understanding.

Know how things are done.

Say out loud whatever is on your mind.

It’s worthy of being our family logo!

Do things reliably.

Mei Yin smiled and nodded, "Of course it's fine.

However, I don’t know if the teachers in the Imperial Academy are willing to learn.”

Zhu Biaoyong nodded and said, "They will definitely be happy to do so.

I can see that they are indeed a bit arrogant.

However, after seeing the arithmetic textbook written by my second brother-in-law, they quickly changed their temperament.

You are very impressed by your second brother-in-law.

I think a lot of people must have a lot of doubts.

They want their second brother-in-law to answer their questions.

At this time, I will give them the re-examination accounting method, and tell them that they can come to you, my second brother-in-law, for advice.

They will surely be extremely happy.

There is no order of learning, the master is the teacher.

If the second brother-in-law's level was similar to theirs, they would naturally find it hard to be convinced.

But now, let’s really talk about the knowledge of arithmetic.

They are far behind the second brother-in-law and the eldest brother.

In this case, what is there to be proud of? "...

Zhu Yuanzhang, Empress Ma, Zhu Biao and their entourage left Shuangshui Village.

When they left, they were even faster than when they came.

After all, this time, I got so much from coming to Shuangshui Village!
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to stay here any longer.

I just want to go back quickly and can't arrange these things.

Get things done quickly.

This time, coming here is really worth it.

Even Mei Yin's mouth is still particularly poisonous.

As for the rest, there is nothing wrong with him.

However, the gains this time are worth the effort I put in...

……

After Zhu Biao returned to the capital, he and Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma went their separate ways.

He didn't go anywhere else.

Taking the booklet on double-entry bookkeeping obtained from Mei Yin, he went directly to the Imperial College.

I met Song Ne, the chief academic officer of the Imperial College, and related teachers.

Let's arrange this matter.

For my father, the most important subject in the Imperial Academy was mathematics.

Now we have the arithmetic textbook made by my second brother-in-law.

With the double-entry bookkeeping method invented by my second brother-in-law, mathematics is bound to flourish!

From now on, when my father uses the people in the Imperial College to do things.

It will also become very smooth.

Just as Zhu Biao said, after reading this re-examination accounting method for a while.

Soon, it caused a huge commotion among these people again.

Zhu Biao took the opportunity to tell them that if anyone had any questions, they could go to Shuangshui Village to ask Shuangshui Bo.

These people suddenly became excited.

Some people even wanted to go there immediately to meet Mei Yin.

They have had this complete set of arithmetic textbooks for some time now.

But the more I look at it, the more I find it exquisite.

The more I read it, the more I feel that this thing can be called a classic of mathematics.

But many parts of the following passage are also difficult to understand.

For some problems, they can understand them through discussion with each other and verification.

But there are some questions that I really don’t understand.

They wrote down all the questions they didn't understand.

Some people had been thinking before that they could find an opportunity in the future to go and ask Uncle Shuangshui for advice.

But he was also worried that the difference in their status was too great and it would be bad if they met rashly.

Now, Crown Prince Zhu Biao said this directly.

This is exactly what they want.

As for what Mei Yin was worried about, such as someone being dissatisfied and arrogant, it never happened.

Just as Zhu Biao said.

Mei Yin's level is far beyond theirs.

If these people are of similar level, they may be arrogant due to their age and other factors.

But now, Mei Yin's level has surpassed them by a large margin.

In this situation, what pride can they still have?
After Zhu Yuanzhang returned, he did not revise the memorial.

Instead, he quickly started writing, recording what he had heard from Mei Yin regarding the financial budget and other aspects.

And carried out some careful consideration.

He needs to implement this matter as soon as possible.

After careful recollection and consideration.

When I felt that everything was about right, it was already getting late.

Zhu Yuanzhang ordered someone to call Hu Weiyong over immediately...

……

At this time, Hu Weiyong had already arrived home.

I had just taken two bites of rice when I received this news.

Hearing this, he took two more mouthfuls of rice.

He immediately headed towards the palace.

By the way, he really can't do without eating a few more mouthfuls of rice.

He knew Zhu Yuanzhang's character too well.
If it were any other emperor, the ministers would have encountered mealtime.

It is very likely that the emperor would invite his subjects to dinner or some snacks.

But working for Zhu Yuanzhang, this possibility is very small.

Most of the time, I have to go hungry.

If he didn't eat a few more mouthfuls of food at this time, he would be hungry when he arrived at the palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang was too stingy and would definitely not give himself anything to eat.

At the same time, I was also wondering why Zhu Yuanzhang let me enter the palace so late.

What big thing happened?
Although I am a little curious, I am also somewhat accustomed to this kind of thing.

Because after becoming a real prime minister, there are countless things he needs to deal with.

Every day is night and day.

After leaving office, it was not the first or second time that Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang called him over to handle matters.

Sitting in the donkey cart, he couldn't help but hit his head.

I just feel extremely tired.

Originally, he thought he was much younger than Zhu Yuanzhang.

Energetic.

With his abilities and energy, he is more than qualified to be the prime minister.

Zhu Yuanzhang will definitely not be able to survive me.

However, after this period of time, I felt that I was careless before.

I feel increasingly powerless.

Zhu Yuanzhang, a beggar, was so energetic that he was almost not like a human.

I'm trying to work myself to the point where I can't keep up.

……

"How about this, Mr. Hu?"

In the Wuying Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang threw a booklet to him.

Hu Weiyong took it, opened it and started to read it.

He looked calm at first, but soon his heart was shaken.

This...what happened to Zhu Yuanzhang today?
Are you enlightened?

Why are we suddenly changing the tax transfer system?
Not only was it no longer used, but Zhu Yuanzhang thought it was an extremely convenient method.

Now, we have to conduct budget review on local governments...

This is a really good idea.

With this method in place, local officials will no longer have such a carefree life.

A lot of power will be concentrated by the court.

But he didn't want to see this happen.

Because doing so would seriously damage his interests as prime minister.

Previously, Zhu Yuanzhang had greatly weakened the power of the Secretariat by abolishing the Xingzhongshu Sheng and replacing it with the Three Departments.

This would also weaken some of his rights as prime minister.

As a result, this happened again.

As a result, local power will become smaller.

It seems that the power of the court has increased.

His power as prime minister has also been enhanced to a certain extent.

But... this puts the local authorities under too strict control.

In this case, how can he pursue his own personal interests as prime minister in the future?
But look at Zhu Yuanzhang's expression.

Let’s take a look at the method here.

Hu Weiyong knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was not coming to seek his opinion.

Even if he couldn't say it well, Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely promote it.

He immediately said: "Master, this is a good idea..."

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile: "Then Prime Minister Hu, please take more care and implement it as soon as possible."
