Chapter 665: A New Explanation of Emphasizing Agriculture and Suppressing Commerce What could Zhu Biao say after hearing the old man say this? I can only say that Chen Han’s hypnosis is still very effective on the old man. The old man believed that everything Chen Han did was right. "Okay, okay, Dad, if you think it's good for your health, then keep doing it. I can see that you are much better now than before. At least the unhappiness on your face is gone now. "Instead, I fully trust Chen Han! Son, I will try my best to listen to you, and you just take good care of your health. "Take good care of yourself, and we'll be relieved. What do you think?" Zhu Biao also hoped that the old man could take good care of himself. "You should have thought so a long time ago." Zhu Yuanzhang was a little unwilling. "Isn't that who I am? Do I have any other ideas? No! I have always believed that keeping healthy so that you don't worry, and making the world better and better, this is my mission. "So don't worry, the monkey boy has already done it for us." Hearing the old man praising Chen Han so much, what else could Zhu Biao say? He could only say: "Yes, yes, yes, everything you said is right. This monkey boy has done a lot to make the Ming Dynasty better and better. We should learn from him and pay tribute to him." This is what the old man is thinking now.

Zhu Yuanzhang's awareness today was definitely not developed overnight. In fact, he had this feeling a long time ago. That is - in fact, Chen Han has never stopped in these years since he came to the Ming Dynasty. Instead, he has always been thinking about the Ming Dynasty. Although this young man has been saying that I did this, in fact, a large extent it was for the purpose of making myself famous in history. But it has to be said that with Chen Han around, even the old man himself felt very reassured. Because of Chen Han, the old man felt that he had the greatest guarantee for his future. Even if he knew that Chen Han's arrival had changed the fate of the Ming Dynasty. Perhaps things in the future will not follow the historical course that Chen Han knows. But the difference is that when Chen Han came to the Ming Dynasty, he discovered. If the current situation in the Ming Dynasty continues, then what Chen Han said will really happen. There will be a lot of chaos among the future generations, and his son, Prince of Yan Zhu Di, may rebel like his grandson Zhu Yunwen. He himself was not someone who blindly believed what Chen Han said. But after his own rational analysis, he discovered. Many things will happen if they are not changed according to what Chen Han said. So in this situation, all he could do was to believe what Chen Han said as much as possible. Urge your children and grandchildren as much as possible while you are still alive. Correcting all these things properly is what a responsible elder should do. As Chen Han carried out his reforms, he increasingly realized that what Chen Han said was absolutely right.

Chen Han did not hide his ideas, and even worked hard to help the Ming Dynasty carry out reforms. To be honest, the spirit of sacrifice shown by the reform deeply moved the old man. It is precisely for this reason that the old man never suspected that Chen Han would do anything to let down the Ming Dynasty. It is for this reason that Chen Han is able to get the support of the old man now. So what else can he say in this situation? All we can say is that Chen Han did help the Ming Dynasty in many areas. He was right in many areas. So far he has discovered that Chen Han did not say anything wrong. So far, he has discovered. It is because of following Chen Han’s pace that the Ming Dynasty has achieved its current prosperity. So after he had talked so much with Chen Han, he realized it. Sometimes that little monkey actually really wants to do things for the Ming Dynasty. He really doesn't care about his personal honor and disgrace. After having this feeling, he felt that Chen Han was even more rare. So the old man held the injured hand and smiled slightly, "When he first came, we all thought he was a monster. We always felt that this kid never spoke the truth. He was blind but still so pretentious." "But later we found out, if it weren't for this little monkey, how much would we have lost? "Let's not talk about other things for now. I think the biggest thing is that he saved you. According to what this guy said, if I hadn't followed his advice, you might have been exhausted to death like me. But now, not only has it not happened, but you are alive and well, even full of energy. "It's just like he said. Without him, all of us would have been dragged to death. "Now that we have him, you and I have all escaped from this mud pit. Our Ming Dynasty has also gained such good conditions for development. "In a word, it is equivalent to him bringing our Ming Dynasty back to life. This is a bit exaggerated, but it is not a lie. I am really grateful for his help to the Ming Dynasty over the years. On this point, you should have the same idea as me, right?" Zhu Biao nodded: "Old man, I do have the same idea as you on this point." "Dad, let me tell you the truth - although I have been emphasizing that I am still alive now, it may be God's blessing. But I have to say that in many cases, this blessing from God is accomplished by that monkey cub. The monkey cub not only saved the lives of both father and son, but also pushed our Ming Dynasty to a peak. "His kindness to our Ming Dynasty is really too great. So great that both my father and I don't know how to repay him. I am not exaggerating at all. Think about it, if it weren't for him, could my father and I really have brought the Ming Dynasty to its current peak? Not necessarily! "So not only are you grateful to him in your heart, but I, your son, am too! I have always been grateful to him. If it weren't for him, we really don't know what the Ming Dynasty would have become. Even if we die, if we see the fourth brother and Yunwen fighting for the throne in the underworld, you can imagine how we feel in our hearts. "So, just for this reason, I think I should be grateful to this monkey boy. Now this monkey boy has really found a good job for you. So I, your son, have always wanted you to have a good rest." But I really don't think as carefully as the monkey boy. Just like the monkey boy said, people can't be too idle. You have worked hard all your life and have become accustomed to having work to do all the time. You are in a state where you have nothing to do, and it is really difficult for you to adapt. It is not that we, the younger generation, must ask you to work. "It's because I now feel that what he said is right. Without proper exercise, your body may not be healthy. Just like what the imperial doctors said, if it is blocked, it will be blocked, and if it is blocked, it will be stagnant, and if it is stagnant, it will be sick. "From this perspective, it might really be a wise decision for the monkey kid to let you farm. So I agree with my kid's suggestion to let you farm. But you have to be careful too, and don't overdo it. Your health is not very good right now. Even if you want to farm, you have to do it within your ability. If you overdo it, you will get sick!" Hearing his son care about him like this, the old man felt warm in his heart: "Great, great, with filial grandchildren like you around me, how can I get sick? I am satisfied with my life." I was very moved when I heard the old man say this. In fact, the old man has been busy all his life and has never had a real good rest.

And now there is finally such an opportunity. So the old man now insists on going to a key place to stretch his muscles. It makes everyone feel a little uneasy. But it's a good thing after all. Because according to the old man’s current physical condition, if he wants to live to be eighty or ninety years old, he really needs to move around. After talking about these things, the old man started to talk to Zhu Biao about politics: "I heard that this monkey boy wants to give money to the whole world, and the method is very different. You should have known about it a long time ago, right?" Zhu Biao nodded: "Dad, to be honest with you, I had already talked to him before the monkey reported to you." The old man did not have any dissatisfaction with this, but asked: "What do you think?" Zhu Biao thought for a moment and said, "I think this is a very good thing." Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment and then asked: "Don't you have any ideas of your own?" Zhu Biao shook his head: "It's not about whether my son has any idea or not. But after listening to what the monkey boy said, my son felt that he should do it just as he said. Just as he said, he should complete it. Regarding the transformation of business, he said more than once that our Ming Dynasty can emphasize agriculture and suppress commerce. But what should be suppressed must not be business itself, but those big businessmen. "His meaning is also very clear. We must not let big businessmen control the economic lifeline of the Ming Dynasty. We can only use these businessmen to allow the goods of our Ming Dynasty to circulate. Let the people of our Ming Dynasty buy more specialties from other places. This is the whole purpose. "We don't want to cut off commerce, but to encourage more commerce that can enrich the people and make agriculture more productive under limited circumstances. This is to feed back the economy of the entire world." Chen Han has already explained to Zhu Biao a lot of simple business logic, such as economics, productivity, etc. "Just like Chen Han said, we can emphasize agriculture and suppress commerce, and the essence is to restrict the rights of some merchants. But the restriction of this right does not mean that they are not allowed to wear this or that. The restriction is that no big landlords are allowed to appear. Those big landlords cannot have a big impact on the economy of the entire court. Some big merchants cannot be allowed to monopolize a certain industry. "It is necessary to let merchants serve the world and the people. It is necessary to allow the commercial value of merchants to be released and at the same time benefit the whole world. What should be suppressed is the emergence of monopoly, not the elimination of business." Chen Han has already explained this idea to Zhu Biao, and that is why he has received strong support. And what Chen Han said is also right. We should never give up eating because of choking, and we should never quench thirst with poison. We must do something based on the actual situation. It is precisely because Chen Han has this idea that Zhu Biao is particularly supportive of him now. After listening to Zhu Biao's words, the old man was relieved: "Then according to your logic, where does Chen Han's distribution of money all over the world belong to in your so-called economy?" Zhu Biao then used the economic knowledge he learned from Chen Han to explain to the old man. This was not because Zhu Yuanzhang did not believe what Chen Han said, but because the old man wanted to hear the explanation of those terms from his son's mouth. He wanted to ensure that his son could understand these things, and not just listen to Chen Han's instructions. The old man is a very opinionated person, so he hopes that his son can also be independent-minded. That's why I want to hear what I'm saying now from my son's mouth. Zhu Biao then explained to him: "In fact, the reason is very simple. The way we printed the treasure notes before was to directly take things from the people. The more treasure notes there were, the less money actually fell into the hands of the people. "That's why the common people didn't enjoy any benefits. On the contrary, because of the sudden increase in the amount of banknotes on the market, their things became worthless. Think about it, isn't this the truth?

"No matter how many notes we printed, no matter how many things we bought, how many notes could reach the hands of ordinary people?" The old man stroked his beard and thought for a while: "This is indeed true. Not much can really reach the hands of ordinary people, so ordinary people don't really benefit from it." Zhu Biao nodded: "We did spend a lot of money to buy things from the people. But in the end, not much fell into the hands of the people. The bulk of it was taken away by those who do business. "That's why the common people didn't get any benefits, and at the same time they were plundered by the banknotes. This is what Chen Han calls the double harm." After thinking about it, the old man felt ashamed. At that time, I was just thinking that although printing too much money would cause some damage to the economy of the whole world, the common people also benefited to a certain extent. But they didn't expect that not much would actually fall into the hands of ordinary people. So even if ordinary people had a lot of hardened banknotes, what good would it do? No! On the contrary, they were the ones who suffered the most because of the double exploitation of Baochao every day. After understanding this truth, the old man now doesn’t know what to say. I can only use a smile to hide my embarrassment. It looks like the monkey taught you a lot. Zhu Biao nodded: "Following the monkey, whatever he said was of great help to us. Of course, according to his own words, it is not because we are stupider than him. It is because it comes from six hundred years later, with more than six hundred years of knowledge accumulation. "Even in his time, it was much easier to acquire this knowledge than it is for us. So he has a wider range of knowledge than us, but not necessarily a wider range of experience. "No matter how much he has, it is all from books, unlike us who have personal experience. Especially in terms of experience as a witness, my father and I have much more than him. This is our advantage." …… (End of this chapter)
