Due to the high demand from Lao Zhu and the others, Han Du grilled oysters non-stop.
As a result, the three of them could no longer eat anything.
Apart from eating a few at the beginning, Han Du never had time to take another bite.
Tang He put down half of the oyster in his hand, shook his head and sighed: "I can't eat it anymore, I can't eat it anymore."
He looked up at Zhu Yuanzhang and sighed, "I think back then I was also a fierce general who only had a dou of rice and ten kilograms of meat for every meal. I didn't expect that after just a few years of stable life, my spleen and meat suddenly became so bad that I couldn't even eat this little thing."
,well......"
After hearing this, Lao Zhu laughed and sighed: "This is because we are all old."
Tang He was startled by the emperor's words, and quickly shook his head and defended: "No, no, no, it's me who is getting old. The emperor is in his prime during the Spring and Autumn Period, and he is not old at all."
Everyone else closed their mouths tightly, not daring to answer the question at this time.
Even Zhu Biao was holding an oyster with his head lowered, as if he was concentrating on studying where to eat it to get the best taste. Since ancient times, making prince oysters has been the most difficult. Although Zhu Biao made the easiest oyster in history, for
There are some things and some bottom lines that even he must not cross even half a step.
The most relaxed person at this time was Han Du. Not only did he not have the slightest fear, but he pricked up his ears and wanted to listen carefully to what Lao Zhu would say.
Lao Zhu glanced at Tang He and said dissatisfiedly: "I seem to be older than you. You are old, am I still young?"
Seeing that Tang He wanted to explain, Lao Zhu waved his hand to stop him and said nonchalantly: "Old is old. I am not afraid of death in my whole life, so why bother others and say I am old? I know you are here.
It is taboo to mention old age or death in front of me, but I will tell you today that I am really not afraid of these things."
This is the fierce ambition of Zhu Yuanzhang, the great emperor of Taizu. He had been a monk all his life, had to make a living, licked blood on the battlefield, and also ruled the world in the imperial court. He had experienced all kinds of storms and waves in his life, but only one
I have never prayed to gods or worshiped Buddha, nor have I begged anyone for immortality.
"Killed all the millions of soldiers in the south of the Yangtze River, and the sword on his waist was especially bloody! The old monk didn't know the hero, so he just kept asking for his name."
This is Zhu Yuanzhang.
Just when Tang He didn't know how to answer the question, Han Du came over with a plate.
"Your Majesty, try it again."
Lao Zhu threw away the oysters in his hand, took the handkerchief, wiped his hands, and said: "I can't eat any more. You have been busy for a long time, so you should sit down and eat."
Han Du was not polite at all. He ate a few mouthfuls at the beginning, and just to get rid of the glutton in his stomach, he was driven away by Tang He. Now that he has been busy for a long time, it is time to feel impatient.
Since Lao Zhu asked him to sit down and eat, Han Du had nothing to be polite about. He worked as hard as a tiger and devoted himself to fighting with the plate in front of him.
Seeing that Han Du was not pretentious at all, Lao Zhu burst out laughing and said, "It's better to be young." He turned to look at Tang He and pointed at Han Du, "Brother Xian, look at the way he eats, the way he eats...
....”
When Tang He saw Han Du's faces bulging up as he ate, he suddenly felt embarrassed. However, seeing that the emperor was no longer entangled in old problems, he agreed appropriately: "Young people, everything is done in a hurry."
, they just like to eat meat. Your Majesty, wasn’t that the same thing when we were young?”
Lao Zhu laughed after hearing this, looked at Han Du and nodded: "Not bad, not bad."
After a while, Han Du had almost finished eating. Seeing everyone looking at him, his father's face turned red with embarrassment, as if Han Du's eating appearance had disgraced the Han family.
Han Du knew what was going on. Isn't it because he looked ugly when eating, as if he were fighting, without any elegance of the upper class? Han Du is a casual person, what is elegance? Can he eat it?
However, Han Du did not dare to say this in front of Lao Zhu. For the sake of his own image, he had no choice but to say seriously: "Your Majesty, don't laugh at the appearance of the humble minister. If these things are done well, it can be said that the country will be forever solid.
"
Zhu Yuanzhang has one characteristic, that is, he cares very much about the country and the country of the Ming Dynasty. Anything that is harmful to the country and the country will be eradicated resolutely. Even if it is opposed by everyone, he will carry it out to the end.
.He will tolerate everything that is beneficial to the country, whether it is people or things.
Suddenly hearing Han Du say that these things are related to the country and the country, Lao Zhu naturally did not dare to ignore it.
Lao Zhu asked: "Oh? Han Du, what do you think of these things? Please tell me carefully?"
Han Du took a sip of tea, cleaned his mouth, and then said: "Scholar farmers, industry and commerce, for a court, farmers are the most important, because without farmers, the world will not be peaceful. If you want the world to be peaceful, the most important thing is
It is to stabilize farmers all over the world."
These words were exactly the same as Lao Zhu's ideas, and he nodded frequently when he heard them.
"For farmers, what is the most important thing?" Han Du asked, and without waiting for anyone else to answer, he continued: "Of course it is food. Food is the most important thing for the people. It can be said that as long as the people have something to eat, the world will be better.
No worries about instability.”
Lao Zhu originally had high expectations for Han Du, but when he heard Han Du mention the cliché that "food is the first priority for the people", he suddenly felt disappointed. He couldn't help but interjected: "Everyone understands the truth, but it is not easy to achieve it.
?Thousands of years ago, the sages said that food is the most important thing for the people. But for such a long time, who in the past dynasties has been able to do it? Even in peaceful years, there are droughts and floods. What if there is a locust plague?
, that would be a thousand miles of bare ground, without harvesting anything.”
Han Du was about to interrupt, but Lao Zhu stopped him with his hand.
"I know what you want to say. Do you want to continue to increase the land for the people? But do you know that even if you increase the land for the people, you can make the people have food to eat? Do you know that wasteland
To turn a piece of wasteland into a mature land, people need to cultivate it every year. It will take at least three to five years for a piece of wasteland to become a mature land. Moreover, in the first three years, the harvest from the land is very small, and sometimes it is not enough to invest in it.
A lot. Otherwise, why do you think I would exempt the taxes for the first three years when I encourage the people to reclaim land? Because if we don’t exempt the taxes for the first three years, the people will actually lose money by reclaiming the land. In this case, who will go there?
Reclamation?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Han Du showed no sign of being scolded by Lao Zhu, and first flattered Lao Zhu.
