The sun only moved a little, but the scorching light was still shining down. Many ministers who really cared about the people in the court felt a sense of coolness.
It seems that the hot wind blowing makes people feel refreshed. The sky is so blue, the clouds are so white, and the wheat in the ground is so lovely.
Only a few ministers turned their eyes around, looking at the wheat, then at the people in Xiaqiu Village, and then at Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Long live congratulations! Long live congratulations! With long live here, Xiaqiu Village will definitely increase its income every year, and the output of one year will be higher than the previous year."
Hu Weiyong suddenly spoke from the side, and the expression on his face was one of joy.
"Harvest wheat." Zhu Yuanzhang looked up at the sky and ordered softly.
The eunuch immediately sent word, and the people behind him rushed up to harvest the wheat. These people were brought to do farm work.
"Hanhan, come with us to a shady place. His name is Hu Weiyong, You Cheng."
Zhu Yuanzhang said to Hanhan, who was always squinting at Hu Weiyong, that he didn't know why, but he felt angry.
"Hey! Liang, Yong. Hehehehehe!" Zhu Wentian looked back and smiled naively.
The group of people first found a shady place to rest, as they did not need to do anything to harvest the crops themselves.
Not only the wheat fields, but also the ramie and rapeseed fields in front. Zhu Yuanzhang brought five thousand people to do farm work.
After the harvest is completed, the yield per mu still needs to be calculated to see if it is higher than normal. If it is higher, it will be used as seeds.
So everyone came under the shed set up in Xiaqiu Village. The canopy umbrellas were useless. They could not block a little sunlight and could not withstand the heat wave.
Water was poured on the cement floor under the shed first, and the water turned into gas, taking away the heat.
Of course, this operation will smell like cement, so I lit a lot of soothing incense to make people smell comfortable and to repel flies.
The ministers drank tea and had their own thoughts. They found that His Majesty seemed to have opinions about Hu Weiyong.
They also knew what Hu Weiyong meant. Since Xiaqiu Village was so powerful, its output would increase year by year.
Obviously it's impossible. Once production cannot be increased, or even production is reduced under special circumstances, what should we say?
Hu Weiyong sat there silently. He knew how to pay bribes and watch people's behavior, so he felt very uncomfortable. He felt that the fool was going to kill someone.
The one named Hanhan narrowed his eyes like a cat that had seen prey and was ready to pounce on it at any time. Moreover, he was either as ferocious as a person killing people or very calm.
Zhu Wentian was very happy. Hu Weiyong's behavior today strengthened his belief.
There is no need to wait eight years later for Zhu Yuanzhang to deal with Hu Weiyong in the name of rebellion. The authenticity of the rebellion does not matter.
Zhu Wentian specifically analyzed Hu Weiyong, who joined Zhu Yuanzhang's team in 1355.
That year, Zhu Yuanzhang had just captured He County, and Guo Zixing appointed Zhu Yuanzhang as the commander-in-chief of He County.
Not long after, Guo Zixing died, Zhu Yuanzhang's status improved further, and Hu Weiyong came to visit.
Why did Hu Weiyong get promoted so quickly? Apparently he did something.
There is actually no record of what happened before he surrendered to Zhu Yuanzhang. A person with no records became an official of the Marshal's Palace when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang.
Then he couldn't stop being promoted. Why should he?
Or he was someone else's subordinate who harmed his master, which was beneficial to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Either he was once Zhu Yuanzhang's subordinate, used another name to do dirty work, and then came back to join Zhu Yuanzhang when he became powerful.
If it was the former, Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely be wary of him and would not allow him to be the right prime minister.
If it was the latter, and he still needed to do dirty work, it would be possible to keep him. According to the records, he actually did not make much contribution to the court.
In this case, how could he engage in corruption and bribery again and then turn around and bribe others? He bribed Li Shanchang two hundred taels of gold. Where did the money come from?
Zhu Wentian made an analysis and believed that Hu Weiyong was very good at drilling camps and had some secrets about Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang endured it, and used his own hands to get rid of people, and finally killed people. As for the rebellion, it didn't matter whether there was such a thing or not.
With Zhu Yuanzhang's character, how could he not arrange for people to keep an eye on the ministers?
“It takes two days to harvest wheat, and another half day to harvest ramie and rapeseed.
The purple flowers are blooming on the ground, and they seem to be harvested one after another. What is it called? Perennial plant?
It feels like a leek, you can keep cutting it by leaving the root. Oh, and there is also sugar cane, which was grown in Fujian. It was not easy for the mayor to send a letter back then!
It should be long! Do you remember the first time you wrote a letter? When you were here, it was a long way.
There is no need to go to that trouble now. If you have any good food, remember to prepare it and ask Biao'er to deliver it to us. "
When Zhu Yuanzhang talked about the past, it actually had nothing to do with distance. The real distance between the two parties was the distance of trust.
After selling rock candy at that time, and later selling soap, we had to consider the shipment quantity.
The two sides have been getting closer through repeated technical exchanges. Until now, it no longer matters how much something is shipped.
Moreover, there are flintlock muskets, revolving flintlock muskets, and yellow powder just outside Chaoyang Gate in Xiaqiu Village, and both city gates are not closed.
It's not just emotional trust, it also includes trust in strength. Anyone else would have rebelled long ago.
Of course the chief knew this, so he poured the tea in front of Zhu Yuanzhang and continued: "I once recalled that in those days, the mountains were high and the roads were far away. Flowing clouds were in the sky, and the rivers were dangerous. When people were close, their feelings were in the palace. When I was away from the countryside, my heart was there. What I'm thinking about: Golden wheat fields, bluestone livestock pens. Yellow pond with turbid appearance, spring tea is not weak."
"A good spring tea is not weak, so you have to taste it slowly! This is Mingqian tea. It doesn't need a filter, so you can see the buds."
Zhu Yuanzhang picked up the tea and took a sip. He knew that there were many utensils for drinking tea in Xiaqiu Village, but this time he brewed it directly in the pot, and then poured it into the bowl with the buds.
Because this bud can be eaten, unlike black tea and old tea, which cannot be eaten because the taste is too bad, so the tea leaves are filtered out.
Two quarters of an hour later, Zhu Yuanzhang got up. He had to go and review the question book for a while, so he brought the prince to help.
The ministers also have their own work, and those who have nothing to do take a leisurely stroll in the village.
"Hanhan, what are you cooking for tonight? Bamboo rats? Why is that Hu Weiyong so bad?"
The chief found Hanhan at the mountain temple and asked about the dinner arrangements, and then mentioned You Cheng.
"He is not bad, he is damned. Some people always feel that they can control everything. They regard others as fools and think they can take advantage of them.
Those who are successful can evacuate the top, but that requires first gaining military power, and the person above him has no foundation.
In the late Tang Dynasty, the emperor was ignored by the eunuchs, and in the Song Dynasty, there were also emperors who were ignored by their ministers.
As for Qin II, it is not uncommon for people to misunderstand the current emperor, so it is normal that some people also want to criticize the current emperor. "
Zhu Wentian was still analyzing. He felt that Hu Weiyong did not need to rebel. He had to control absolute military power, and it would be good to slowly step aside.
"So what are we going to cook tonight?" After hearing this, the manager felt that he couldn't participate in this kind of thing, so he might as well say that he could take care of it!
"Drink mutton soup and stir-fry a bunch of vegetables in the evening. Everyone actually wants to drink. Who will eat the food?" Zhu Wentian gave the recipe, mutton soup.
There is no wood today. If you have votes, brothers and sisters, please vote. Thank you! The farmer bowed!
