Chapter 30: The universe has been the land of the Han since ancient times
"Uncle Thirteenth, what do you think the purpose of studying is?"
Zhu Yunxi looked directly at the Yu Wang Zhu Gui who was nagging him again and again, and asked in a deep voice.
Uncle Twenty-Third is so cute, does it offend you?
Even after they were weaned for only a few years, and when they were still sleepy, they would rush to the main hall to study, but they were hungry, without a single complaint.
On the other hand, you, Thirteenth, are the eldest prince present, but you don't have the magnanimity and dignity of an elder brother or uncle.
Zhu Gui snorted coldly and looked at Zhu Yunxi who was questioning him vigorously. He was filled with doubts for a moment.
The second child in the eldest brother's family was not weak and incompetent in the past, but was timid all day long. Why is he so angry today and getting angry with himself?
His face turned cold and he hummed: "It's just some sarcastic words. The so-called sages have been turned into a handful of loess thousands of years ago. Is it because of your Ming Dynasty's ability to read it through reading?
"
Zhu Yunxi said in a deep voice: "The Ming Dynasty is as prosperous as it is today because of the hard work of the emperor and his martial arts and culture. But if you don't study, how can you know the greatness of this world and the light of heaven and earth? Thirteenth Uncle
We can also know, what is there beyond the East China Sea? What are the people's customs to the west of the West? What are the products on the shores of the Western Ocean? What is the reason for the separation of day and night in the extreme desert?"
Zhu Gui was stunned and suddenly became angry from embarrassment.
How did he know about these strange questions asked by Zhu Yunxi?
Just like when he opened his mouth to reprimand Zhu Yunxi as an elder.
The seventeenth-year-old Zhu Quan on the side pulled Zhu Gui: "Thirteenth brother and the child are angry?"
His words sounded like he didn't want him to fight with the junior Zhu Yunxi, but secretly he was warning him.
Then, Zhu Quan looked at the brothers and younger brothers around him with a smile.
"Speaking of which, I am quite curious about Yun Xi's questions. After thinking about it carefully, I found that I have never asked them before. I wonder if you are also curious?"
The fourteenth-year-old Zhu Hui, the fifteenth-year-old Zhu Zhi, and the sixteenth-year-old Zhu Zhu, who were one or two years older than Zhu Quan, nodded. The younger ones were very curious.
Little Twenty-Third Zhu Huang also finished eating the meat pie at this time. He rubbed his oily hands on his body and walked to Zhu Yunxi. He raised his head and took his hands: "Yunxi, tell me quickly."
This picture is a bit strange.
Uncle Twenty-Third also has a lot of oil on his hands.
Zhu Yunxi broke away without leaving a trace, and said calmly and calmly: "My nephew also figured it out from those foreign books that few people see."
"To the east of the East China Sea, there is a continent spanning thousands of miles, which is as great as our land of nine states in the Central Plains, or even more prosperous."
"The countries in the West and the West are everywhere, just like the Spring and Autumn Period in the Central Plains, but they are barbarians, ignorant, covered in red hair, ignorant of etiquette, and rampant in the world with thieves."
"On the shores of the Western Ocean, there is also a continent with endless mineral resources. The people on it have dark skin, like black dogs, and are lazy by nature. They have fertile soil but do not know how to survive."
"In the northern extreme of the desert, one day and night constitutes one season. This phenomenon occurs because the four seasons alternate and the Arctic is located in a dome."
Thank you for the nine years of compulsory education!
Zhu Yunxi held his head high and silently glanced at Zhu Gui, who was held by Zhu Quan earlier.
Everyone listened to his introduction and looked surprised. Apparently they had never heard of the scenes outside the Central Plains that Zhu Yunxi mentioned.
Zhu Song, the young twenty-year-old Korean king who had been following his brothers, immediately spoke first: "Yunxi, are the people on the other side of the Western Shore really as black as black dogs?"
A few of the elders had strange faces, but the one who asked the question was his own brother, so he could only tilt his head.
A few of the younger ones became curious and followed Zhu Song to ask questions.
Zhu Yunxi smiled and affirmed: "Yes!"
Zhu Song asked again: "If it's night, can they still see the person opposite?"
Zhu Yunxi affirmed: "Their teeth are white! Bared teeth reflect the light!"
These words immediately caused several young uncles to laugh.
On the other hand, Zhu Quan, although only one year older than Zhu Yunxi, asked calmly: "Yunxi, I see that the places you mentioned before are far from our Ming Dynasty, but they are all rich in products, but the places above
But the people are just as ignorant and uneducated?”
"We, the Ming Dynasty, are the people favored by God! We, the people of the Central Plains, are hardworking and diligent! How can others compare to us!"
Zhu Yunxi held his head high and his chest high, full of pride and pride.
Just give me a hoe and a piece of land.
I, the people of the Central Plains, can turn it into grains of rice!
Everyone present nodded in agreement with what he said.
In this world, it is almost impossible to find another race that can compare with the people of the Central Plains.
Zhu Yunxi added at this time: "There is countless land south of Guangxi. As long as you scatter a handful of seeds, you don't need to cultivate it intensively. When the season comes, you can harvest countless grains!"
"Seriously!"
"Really?"
"Is what you said true?"
Food has an indescribable appeal to the people of the Central Plains, from common people to the royal family and nobles.
When Zhu Yunxi mentioned how rich the products in Annan were, almost everyone present took a breath and expressed doubts.
Zhu Yunxi nodded heavily: "It's absolutely true. Yunxi will not dare to lie in front of all uncles."
Even King Zhu Gui of Yu, who was at odds with Zhu Yunxi before, couldn't help but say: "Please elaborate!"
Zhu Yunxi said: "Just south of the Chief Envoy of Guangxi, from Jiaozhi to Laos, Che, Mubang, Babaidadian, Myanmar, Mengyang, Diwu La, Daku La and other places, most of the land can be used for farming.
It will be ripe three times a year!”
Three crops a year!
Again, the princes of Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty who were present took a breath of cold air.
Oh my god, there are three crops a year, so how much more food will we have!
Zhu Quan couldn't help but tremble: "Yunxi, are they so rich?"
Zhu Yunxi sneered: "They are very poor! Even if they occupy such fertile land, they still can't have enough to eat!"
"Ah?" Even as calm as Zhu Quan, he couldn't help but ask: "Why are the products over there so rich and the gods are so beautiful, yet they are still hungry?"
"Lazy!" Zhu Yunxi hummed: "They would rather run to the trees to pick fruits to eat than cultivate the fields."
The youngest Zhu Huang, who was twenty-three, also had a puzzled look on his face. He shook his head and said cutely: "Yunxi, why don't they work? My father has said all day long that the most important thing in life is diligence.
"
Zhu Yunxi couldn't help but laugh out loud. He gestured in front of his chest behind his back, and then felt a little dissatisfied. He pressed his palm down and reached his waist.
"Speaking of which, Uncle Twenty-Third may not know that most of the people there are no taller than our waist. They are lazy all day long, lying on the trees looking for food, just like monkeys."
The topic of monkeys made several little ones laugh non-stop.
When Zhu Quan saw that the people in the land described by Zhu Yunxi were so wasteful, he couldn't help but shook his head and sighed: "There are really people in the world who are blessed but don't know how to be blessed. It's just a pity... that land is not our Ming Dynasty
of!"
When he said this, several other princes who had already been crowned kings and were about to become vassal nodded their heads.
"If the Ming Dynasty can obtain such a land that is harvested three times a year, the official warehouse of the Ming Dynasty will be like the Han Dynasty. The warehouses will be rich and the money will be rotten."
“I hate that it’s not me, the Ming Dynasty!”
"..."
One after another, several older princes and princes beat their chests and stamped their feet, with faces full of regret and annoyance.
At this time, Zhu Yunxi coughed slightly, with a little bit of embarrassment on his face.
After attracting everyone's attention, Zhu Yunxi smiled, his face not red and his heart not beating.
"Uncles, if we conquer these places today, to future generations, wouldn't it mean that all the world has been Han territory since ancient times!"
