Su Jing's words immediately stunned Zhu Biao.
His first thought was not that Su Jing punished those government officials, but that Su Jing could affect Lishui County's commercial tax by simply adjusting the business structure.
For a moment, he seemed to understand why his father was so resistant to business.
At the same time, I really understood what Su Jing said at that time that she would not expand her industry beyond Lishui County.
Because when a giant business organization emerges, it will have a huge impact on the country.
"What's wrong, Niu Yi, do you think my method is not feasible?"
Su Jing asked Zhu Biao.
Seeing Zhu Biao's stupid expression, Su Jing was about to explain to him how to operate.
"Master Su, students believe that teachers can do it."
Zhu Biao shook his head and said: "It's just that students are thinking about whether it would be beneficial or harmful to the country if a businessman could do such a thing."
Although the Su Jing in front of him was a businessman, Zhu Biao was still outspoken.
When Su Jing heard this, she knew that Zhu Biao was worried about the country and the people again.
He said calmly: "Niu Yi, what are you worried about? Do you think businessmen can mess up the Ming Dynasty? Do you not have a clear understanding of the nature of the country?"
Zhu Biao was stunned and then asked: "What does Master Su mean by this? What is the nature of the country?"
Su Jing looked at Zhu Biao, raised her hand, clenched it into a fist and said, "How do you think the country was established?"
Zhu Biao immediately replied: "Of course it was captured by the emperor in battle."
"good very good!"
Su Jing continued: "Then, in this battle, the most important thing is naturally the army, right? Only with the army can everything follow."
"Um."
Zhu Biao nodded and said: "Students understand that the emperor was able to establish the Ming Dynasty precisely because of an invincible army!"
The Ming Dynasty's army was notoriously strong.
Whether they are strong soldiers or famous generals, they are all very powerful.
"So what kind of organization is the army?"
Su Jing asked.
This made Zhu Biao hesitate.
Su Jing said directly without waiting for Zhu Biao's answer: "The essence of the army is a violent organization, an organized armed group, the embodiment of all power, and the endorsement of any source of power."
"The emperor's power essentially comes from the strength of the army he controls. There is no problem with that."
Zhu Biao listened carefully and thought about the content of Su Jing's words.
Where does the power in the hands of his father, Zhu Yuanzhang, come from?
Then it can only be the army, and there is nothing wrong with that.
"Yes, Master Su."
Zhu Biao nodded.
Su Jing continued: "So, the emperor held the army and established the country. The essence of the state is the organ of class rule. It is a tool used by the emperor as the ruling class to manage the exploited class, that is, the people."
"No one wants to be born exploited. Everyone aspires to become the ruling class, but only a few people are destined to become the ruling class."
"So from the beginning, the country was the product of irreconcilable class contradictions. Do you understand this, Niu Yi?"
Su Jing's words contained many professional terms, but they also contained Su Jing's own explanation.
Zhu Biao could understand roughly if he understood carefully.
"Master Su means that everyone wants to be the emperor, but there is only one emperor destined to be?"
Zhu Biao asked Su Jing.
It has to be said that, as the prince, Zhu Biao understands this aspect very quickly.
Su Jing nodded and said: "It's not a big problem if you understand it this way. Now here comes the question. Do you think that as a businessman, I am considered the ruling class?"
"Of course it doesn't count."
Zhu Biao said directly: "Su Division has no army, no source of power, and is not a ruling class."
Su Jing shrugged and said, "That's fine. Even though I seem to have a lot of money now, it's not worth mentioning in the face of real power."
"In the country, I belong to the exploited class. I am not even a minister. If the king wants the minister to die, the minister has to die."
"What I can do is now the limit."
Su Jing has a very clear understanding of herself.
Because of this, he has always limited his business territory to Lishui County.
Because compared to the real powerful class, his little industry is nothing more than leeks.
No matter how rich the merchants of the Ming Dynasty, or merchants in feudal society, were, it would be easy for the ruling class to harvest them.
The truly profitable monopoly industries are also controlled by the state.
“Students are taught.”
Zhu Biao bowed seriously to Su Jing.
Su Jing continued: "Niu Yi, I know your family is prominent, but you must understand that the power in your family actually comes from the emperor."
"It can be said that under the feudal monarchy, the emperor is the concentrator of all power. Whether they are princes or ministers, their power is delegated by the emperor himself."
"Since the emperor can delegate power, he can also take it back, so he must be vigilant at all times, and he must not mistakenly think that the power is his own just because he can use it."
"You can also tell your father that you must use the power delegated by the emperor with caution, otherwise the consequences will not be good."
Su Jing spoke with sincerity and sincerity.
After all, Lao Zhu was very famous in history for massacring heroes. There were thirty-four founding fathers, and Lao Zhu killed a total of thirty.
Looking at all the founding emperors, this is also quite explosive.
Zhu Biao's family background is most likely to be at the level of a founding father.
Now let me remind you, maybe you can save a family's life.
"Students take note!"
Zhu Biao was shocked and immediately bowed towards Su Jing.
He was not worried about his own problems. As the prince, he certainly did not have any such concerns.
But the meaning behind Su Jing's words made Zhu Biao have to pay attention.
Use the power delegated by the emperor carefully, otherwise the consequences will not be good.
What does this mean?
Could it be said that his father Zhu Yuanzhang would massacre those heroes?
Those are all his uncles or eldest brothers.
It shouldn’t be!
These heroes were his father's greatest help in conquering the world.
It can be said that without them, there would be no Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Biao didn't want to believe Su Jing's words.
But Su Jing had never told a lie to him. Since these words came out of Su Jing's mouth, they were probably true.
Zhu Biao really felt Su Jing's sincere emotions.
"Master Su, the student thinks that today's emperor is the hero. Isn't what you are worried about unlikely to happen?"
Zhu Biao finally asked.
This matter is related to his father Zhu Yuanzhang.
He couldn't imagine his father killing those founding fathers.
Su Jing responded calmly: "Nothing is impossible. Today's emperor is indeed the hero, but don't forget his origin. I can only say that there are some things that have laid the foundation for trouble from the beginning."
"Many things have already been reflected in the history books. You have seen a lot, so I guess I don't need to say more."
Su Jing didn't say much about this matter.
After all, Lao Zhu's massacre of the heroes is something in the future, so it needs to be said with caution.
If his students were implicated because he said too much, it would be against Su Jing's original intention.
"Students know."
Seeing this, Zhu Biao nodded.
He understood that Su Jing didn't want to say any more.
After all, as a commoner, it is disrespectful to speak ill of the emperor.
Although he is the prince and has nothing to worry about, Su Jing is different.
"Okay, let's stop here."
Su Jing stopped the topic.
On the other side, in the Forbidden City.
Kaos' freedom is much greater now than when he first came here.
After seeking Zhu Yuanzhang's consent, he came to the main hall and studied with the prince.
For this blond Roman, the princes' curiosity was immediately aroused.
between classes.
Kaos was surrounded by a group of wide-eyed princes.
"what's your name?"
"Where are you from?"
"What fun do you have?"
"Why is your hair yellow?"
"How did you come to Daming?"
Questions were asked one after another from the princes' mouths. Kaos was not impatient at all and patiently explained to them.
He knew very well that these children in front of him were all the sons of the Ming Emperor, and it was absolutely beneficial and harmless to have a good relationship with them.
But for those teachers responsible for teaching the princes, it was a bit uncomfortable.
All the princes' attention was basically attracted by Kaos.
A living foreigner, someone who looks completely different from them, and all kinds of interesting stories about foreign countries are much more interesting to the princes than boring words.
Especially these teachers' lectures are all very formal.
But Kaos was different. He showed considerable interest in Chinese culture and studied very seriously.
Only by understanding Chinese culture can he live better in Ming Dynasty.
At this time, in Fengxian Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang was looking at the letter sent by Zhu Biao.
This is the first time Zhu Biao has sent a letter since the last disaster relief grain corruption case ended.
The letter must have described Su Jing's attitude first, and he happily accepted the compensation given to Su Jing.
"It seems that Su Jing is not as rich as I imagined."
Zhu Yuanzhang said to himself, with a rather proud look on his face.
But he was a majestic emperor and said that a businessman was not very rich. As long as he said this, Su Jing would have already won.
After that, Zhu Biao described in detail the competition process between Su Jing, Liu Zhaoxiang and Liu's Mihang.
Even Su Jing's teachings to Zhu Biao were recorded in detail.
The more Lao Zhu watched, the more fascinated he became. Even Lao Zhu admired Su Jing's methods and confidence in strategizing in this business war.
"That's right, that's right. You can defeat ten enemies with one force. When you have the upper hand, you should confront them head-on."
When Zhu Yuanzhang saw Su Jing choosing to confront Liu Shi Mi Xing directly, he couldn't help but nod.
He agrees with this concept very much.
On the battlefield, if one side is in an advantage, then it should be in harmony!
This is the royal way!
"I didn't expect that Su Jing would actually apply the art of war to shopping malls. No wonder he is so young and can create such a foundation."
Zhu Yuanzhang said.
As he spoke, he thought of his fourth son, Zhu Di.
At that time, this guy desperately wanted to go to fight with Su Jingxue Marching Army. At that time, Lao Zhu was furious.
Thinking about it now, Su Jing's performance in this business war was more than enough to guide Zhu Di.
"Huh? From this situation, Su Jing inferred that there is something wrong with Liu's rice business."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded again when he saw that the clerk at Ping'an Rice Shop reported the rice problem to Su Jing, and Su Jing immediately noticed the problem.
This thought is really quite clear.
If this were on the battlefield, Su Jing's insight would definitely be able to defeat the enemy.
When he saw that Su Jing had used hidden methods to obtain the account books of Liu's Rice Shop, Zhu Yuanzhang said:
"He is decisive in handling matters and does not stick to trivial matters. He really has the demeanor of a general."
Being able to overwhelm opponents with a royal approach, and at the same time, under certain circumstances, he will not be afraid to do things due to restrictions for some reasons.
Su Jing's performance left a very good impression on Zhu Yuanzhang's heart.
As an emperor who conquered the country with his own hands, Lao Zhu actually preferred military generals.
Among the old people in Huaixi, there are also many generals.
The previous impression Su Jing gave to Lao Zhu was that he was a smart guy.
Now after watching Su Jing's complete business war, my views have completely changed.
"It seems that when Biao'er ascends to the throne in the future, Su Jing will be the first choice to assist him."
Zhu Yuanzhang said to himself.
Lao Zhu had already made plans in his mind as to how Zhu Biao could take over the Ming Dynasty well in the future.
There was something that had always been a thorn in his side.
There were many founding fathers of the Ming Dynasty, and most of them were concentrated in the Huaixi Group.
It was not difficult to suppress the Huaixi Group when he was alive, but it would not necessarily be the case when Zhu Biao ascended the throne.
Although Chang Yuchun, the most powerful general in the Ming Dynasty, was his father-in-law, Zhu Biao still needed a counselor who could be both civil and military.
And it cannot be from the Huaixi Group, otherwise if they unite, it will be easy to sideline Zhu Biao.
Zhu Yuanzhang had considered Su Jing before, but Su Jing's talents were mostly in governance and had little performance in military affairs.
It is okay to assist Zhu Biao in governing the Ming Dynasty, but if something goes wrong and someone needs to take charge, Su Jing may not be easy to use.
However.
After watching this complete business war, Zhu Yuanzhang's views have changed.
Perhaps, Su Jing is the best candidate.
If Su Jing knew what Lao Zhu was thinking, she would probably be very surprised.
Because this means that Lao Zhu once massacred the heroes, but now he may let go of his heart because of himself, or in other words, he may be more tolerant of the old people in Huaixi.
In this way, perhaps many of the founding fathers would not have to die.
The source of all this turned out to be Su Jing's business war, and this business war happened to be seen by Zhu Yuanzhang.
But similarly, the more Su Jing's talents are displayed, the more suspicious Lao Zhu will be towards Su Jing.
If Su Jing is too powerful, will Zhu Biao be bewitched by Su Jing in the future, or even be ignored?
