Guizhuang wrote in "Guizhuang Ji": "In the fifth year of Hongwu, there was a man who couldn't wait to treat his mother, but failed to apply for a pass as required by the government. He was arrested and is being tried."

Blacksmiths must carry passes wherever they go. If they don't have passes, they will be exhausted to death.

Not a businessman, not a businessman, let alone running around.

The strength of the Ming Dynasty is one of the best in the entire continent. A large part of the reason why they did not succeed was because they firmly tied their lands together.

However, Zhou Cheng did not intend to say more on this issue, and just sighed in his heart.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that he had offended him from the beginning, so he was so decisive. Before Zhou Cheng finished speaking, he stopped and couldn't help but want to see what went wrong with his plan.

This is not nonsense, but a truly knowledgeable person.

Zhu Yuanzhang is okay, Zhu Biao, Zhu Di and others are all strong-blooded people, how can they stand it.

Zhu Biao has been involved in national politics for a long time. He disagrees with Zhou Cheng's statement and hopes he will clarify.

The reason why Zhu Di was dissatisfied with what his father did was because the policies set by his respected father were considered wrong by the people.

So, the two of them asked the guards to stop Zhou Cheng who was about to leave, and wanted to take him back.

Zhu Yuanzhang agreed and waited upstairs.

Zhou Cheng was counting the famous teacher values ​​transmitted from the system when he was suddenly stopped by someone. He was startled. He turned around and saw two young men with extraordinary bearing, one tall and one small. One of them looked at him with a smile.

, the other one looked hostile.

Zhou Cheng was brought into this world three years ago. From the beginning, he was a poor student who had difficulty even eating.

Fortunately, as soon as I open my eyes, I have this ability, and I can get famous teacher points by teaching students.

In this store, there are all kinds of things, such as agricultural products, industry, etc., but if you want to get more things in this store, you must go through system updates.

When Zhou Cheng traveled to this world, he was just a half-hearted scholar. How could he have disciples? It would be misleading to ask Zhou Cheng to teach others ancient prose.

So he thought about it, if he could promote his knowledge, what would be wrong? He couldn't teach it?

That's why he slapped his forehead and started telling stories.

I have accumulated a lot of famous teacher points over the years. This time I took the opportunity to answer questions and made a fortune.

But seeing that these were all about agricultural products, Zhou Cheng couldn't help but shook his head. With his status, no matter how good the materials were, they would be of little use. Since the system store opened the agricultural products section, there are only so many rewards, so

The agricultural products books that appeared this time are far less useful than the previous high-yielding rice seeds.

He planted the bag of seeds in the ground next to the house so that he would have food.

Only then did Zhou Cheng come to his senses, turned around, and looked at the two elders.

"What's wrong?"

Zhu Biao walked out with a polite smile on his face and said:

"My father listened to Teacher Zhou's speech and would like to invite you to come over."

Zhou Cheng looked at the two people in gorgeous clothes and then at the personal guards beside them. Knowing that he could not afford to offend, he walked out quickly.

Thinking again about the famous teacher system, regarding giving lectures to people with higher status and greater influence, Zhou Cheng was full of hope.

When he opened the door, he saw a middle-aged man standing there with an imposing manner on a chair leaning against the window. Zhou Cheng was startled and immediately realized that the other man was not easy to deal with.

Although he was a little wary in his heart, he still looked calm on the surface.

Although he has been praised to this extent, he cannot show it.

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang and others thought that Mr. Zhou was very handsome and did not look like an ordinary person.

You must know that Zhu Yuanzhang was the founder of the country who made great contributions on the battlefield. The majesty exuded from him is intimidating and people dare not look directly at him.

Zhu Yuanzhang had a good first impression of Wei Xiaobei, and his voice became much softer.

"I heard that people here say that you know everything and know everything. Is this true?"

Zhou Cheng waved his hand and said calmly:

"I just recognize some words and know more things. They are all simple people. When they see me helping, they are naturally grateful."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, his affection for Zhou Cheng greatly increased.

Zhu Di could no longer bear it and asked Zhou Cheng:

"Are you saying this below because you have a problem with His Majesty and the court?"

Zhou Cheng suddenly turned around and glared at this brat. Damn, you are talking nonsense. Emperor Ming is such a great emperor. He kills people like crazy without blinking an eye.

What kind of hatred, what hatred, and how vicious is this?

Zhou Cheng looked unhappy and shook his sleeves to leave.

"I always like to make friends. I thought you were here to help me, but I didn't expect that I was just here to cause trouble for you."

"Sorry."

Zhu Di was stunned, and was about to scold him for his presumption, when he suddenly remembered that they had not revealed his true identity.

Seeing this, Zhu Biao quickly stood up and stopped Zhou Cheng: "Wait!"

"We are being rude. We just heard your name and wanted to see your style. In addition, your conversation below just made us a little confused, so we asked you to come over and talk about it."

After saying that, Zhu Biao turned to look at Zhu Di and said: "Hurry up and give up your position, Mr. Zhou!"

Three seats were placed on a large table. Zhou Cheng sat deliberately and leisurely, making Zhu Di angrily walk directly to the window.

Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy to see Zhu Di, a reckless guy, learn a lesson. He just smiled and said nothing, but turned to Zhou Cheng and said:

"The imperial court is now paying attention to new food crops. I wonder if Mr. Zhou can give you some advice?"

Zhou Cheng calmed down, no longer shy, and said straightforwardly:

"It's not really a good idea. I just think the propaganda method this time is too rough and hard for people to understand, so I just muddle through it. If I don't know the correct farming methods, I will get twice the result with half the effort. Promote cotton

It's right, but we have to change our approach."

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned when he heard this. For him, subjects should obey orders obediently and there is no need to think too much.

Zhu Biao asked again: "Teacher Zhou, what do you think we should do?"

This is easy, Zhou Cheng said without thinking: "We should encourage farmers to plant cash crops reasonably according to local conditions. If the cultivated land is smaller, plant half of it, and if the cultivated land is larger, plant double the amount. Yes.

Appropriate subsidies will be given to farmers with smaller arable land and poor family economic conditions. In short, we cannot treat everyone equally, and we must teach each person according to their needs."

Zhu Yuanzhang's expression softened and he said seriously: "Continue."

"The imperial court will also write down the methods of growing cotton and some things that need attention, and send people to the countryside to explain it to the people. If they do nothing and just rely on luck, let alone the government can't come up with something in a short while.

No matter what the outcome, even the farmers themselves will suffer huge losses."

"This is what I just mentioned, the issue of strictly controlling population migration."

Zhu Di looked at his father and brother with more and more solemn eyes, and knew that this boy must have passed the test. Although he was young, he was no stranger to the affairs of the court. After thinking about it, he couldn't think of anything bad.

Then he asked Zhou Cheng:

"In this way, we can better control and tax and reduce the crime rate. Why not?"

Zhou Cheng was full of confidence and thought to himself that everyone will remember some of the advantages and disadvantages of agricultural production.

"Take the cotton I just mentioned. They have no other source of livelihood. Men farm and women spin. Their living environment is very poor, so their living environment is very poor. If they are not lucky, they will

Collapse."

Zhu Di said: "But this hasn't happened for thousands of years!"

Zhou Cheng: "Has it been like this for thousands of years?"

Zhu Di hesitated to speak. Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao thought about it carefully and realized that this was also the case.

"If everything had been correct for thousands of years, then our Ming Dynasty would not have the current emperor."

Zhu Biao and Zhu Di were stunned, while Zhu Yuanzhang burst out laughing.

This time, he finally saw the true face of this young man, and he was indeed a talent.

Zhu Yuanzhang was interested in wooing him, so he naturally wanted to investigate carefully. Remembering that he knew everything about the affairs of the court, she pondered for a moment and asked Zhou Cheng:

"You think the land in northern Jiangsu is barren and sparsely populated, so let me ask you a question."

Zhu Biao heard this and said something for Zhou Cheng, "Now the government and the public are debating this issue. There are many people who oppose it and many people are migrating."

"Moreover, this relocation involves too many people, and we don't know what kind of gentle measures they will take, such as probation and rewards, or forced relocation."

Zhu Biao told Zhou Cheng in detail about the disputes in the DPRK. Zhou Cheng was shocked as he heard that even ordinary people would not be able to understand this matter so thoroughly.

He spoke clearly and eloquently, as if everyone had heard it with his own ears.

Who are these people? At first, he thought they were just ordinary children from rich families, but now it seems that there are more than he imagined.

Could it be that he was a descendant of a certain founding general? Fang Yuan looked at Zhu Yuanzhang carefully and noticed his expression, and couldn't help but feel moved.

No wonder answering these people's questions by himself would make his famous teacher value increase so quickly. Zhou Cheng opened the famous teacher system.

Not long after, his famous teacher points reached tens of thousands. In the past, the students he taught were poor farmers and hawkers. So Zhou Cheng came here for three years and only saved 50,000 yuan, just to upgrade this new system.

, open a specialized agricultural product store.

But in just a short time, their famous teacher value reached tens of thousands.

While Zhou Cheng was excited, he became increasingly interested in the origins of these people.

Thinking of this, Zhou Cheng began to study this method.

However, the officials in the imperial court are not so easy to get along with. It is not easy to get along under Zhu Yuanzhang's nose. Therefore, they have already had a complete relocation plan.

Judging from Zhu Yuanzhang's character, he prefers to use tough methods to solve problems. After all, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty did not have a good temper. Although he valued farmers, he was also used to being self-centered and did not allow anyone to object.
