Chapter 223 Ye Xuan: I Just Asked Shen Wansan If He Could Go To Sea! Zhu Yuanzhang: Are You So Direc
Chapter 223 Ye Xuan: I just asked Shen Wansan if he could go to sea! Zhu Yuanzhang: Are you as direct as you? Can you be more tactful?
"Retreat from the court————!!"
The eunuch's shrill voice was extremely loud, echoing in the hall and lingering around.
All officials exited one after another.
Walked towards the outside of the palace.
Ye Xuan has a crimson Yunyan official robe, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, fair skin, and piercing eyes, making him look particularly energetic and handsome.
He did not leave with the officials.
Instead, he went to see Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang was changing clothes at this time.
The bright yellow uniforms were changed by the maids and eunuchs.
Then, he put on a red uniform.
The eunuch helped Zhu Yuanzhang put on his jade belt.
"Your Majesty, Ye Xuan would like to see you."
A eunuch holding a whisk came in to report.
"Ye Xuan?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was quite surprised.
He raised his eyebrows.
He was the only one who had ever summoned Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan came to see him, but it was the first time that Opening Heavens had opened up.
"Let him come to me."
Zhu Yuanzhang said.
"yes."
The eunuch quickly brought Zhu Yuanzhang in.
The eunuchs and maids were arranging Zhu Yuanzhang's clothes at this time and smoothing out the wrinkles on Zhu Yuanzhang's clothes.
"My dear, it's so rare. I didn't expect you to come to see us this time."
Zhu Yuanzhang waved the maids and eunuchs away, then turned to look at Ye Xuan, with a smile on his face and a rather playful tone.
"Why did you come to see us?" 780 Zhu Yuanzhang had a vague guess in his mind.
He recently received news from Jin Yiwei that Shen Wansan and his son Shen Jin had come to the capital.
As soon as these two people came to the capital, Ye Xuan came to see him.
It's too strange.
He had a vague feeling that what Ye Xuan was coming to say might be related to Shen Wansan.
Zhu Yuanzhang's dark and deep eyes showed a hint of amusement.
He wanted to see how Ye Xuan begged him in a roundabout way.
I have always hated Shen Wansan.
It is impossible for Ye Xuan not to know.
So, what does Ye Xuan do?
Ye Xuan said:
"Your Majesty, I have something I want to ask.
"Now the sea ban has been lifted."
"Can Shen Wansan go to sea to do business?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was caught off guard by this straight ball. He thought Ye Xuan would beat around the bush to find out what he was saying, but he didn't expect Ye Xuan to be so bold and ask him directly.
He was a little stunned.
Unexpected.
But there was no anger in my heart.
On the contrary, I found it interesting.
Ye Xuan is indeed an elusive person.
Just like the test questions he gave.
Zhu Yuanzhang pretended to darken his face.
"Shen Wansan?"
"He is the one who asked you to ask us.
"He's quite brave."
"Previously (bhfg) promised in front of us that we will no longer conduct maritime trade."
"Why, now you regret it?"
"There is no regret medicine in this world."
"And you, you are really brave."
"You actually asked us so directly."
"Aren't you afraid that we might be angry with you?"
Ye Xuan said calmly:
"If the emperor was really angry, he would definitely not act like this."
"Besides, why did I do anything wrong?"
Zhu Yuanzhang did not expect Ye Xuan to be so calm.
It is indeed Ye Xuan.
As expected, he is the one he likes.
"Hahahahaha... Aiqing is right, you are indeed not wrong."
"but."
"Don't you know we hate these businessmen the most?"
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled a few times and then immediately changed his face. His face was extremely gloomy, as if a storm was about to come, and the atmosphere around him seemed to be stagnant at this moment.
He hates businessmen.
He hated Shen Wansan even more.
the reason is simple.
On the one hand, Ming Dynasty was very poor before.
Shen Wansan is very rich.
If only he could eat up the fat piece of Shen Wansan.
Then the national treasury can be filled.
On the other hand, when he attacked Zhang Shicheng, Shen Wansan, the richest man in Jiangnan, funded Zhang Zhengcheng.
Shen Wansan is an enemy.
rather than funding him.
He kept this hatred firmly in his heart.
Putting the two together, Zhu Yuanzhang targeted Shen Wansan.
Of course, things are different now.
Under Ye Xuan's suggestion, they established colonies, made money by dumping goods in the colonies, conducted maritime trade, etc.
This makes Ming’s fiscal revenue less ugly.
The national treasury was also filled.
There is no need to swallow Shen Wansan's money.
However, he did not want to forgive Shen Wansan for the fact that he had collaborated with his enemies.
"Your Majesty, I have said before that merchants are not depriving the people of their wealth. They are just a tool for transporting goods. Without merchants, it would be difficult for some goods to travel across mountains and rivers and reach the hands of ordinary people. Ordinary people can choose to buy or It is not a compulsory transaction to buy goods from merchants, and merchants transport goods, so people save time from traveling to distant places to purchase goods.
"Businessmen are not harmful to the country."
"They promote the circulation of goods and make them valuable."
“It can also promote the development of the country’s economy.”
Ye Xuan repeated the views he had said before, intending to brainwash Zhu Yuanzhang again.
Shen Wansan is his father-in-law.
You can't just sit back and watch Shen Wansan being targeted by Zhu Yuanzhang and ignore it.
And especially people like Zhu Yuanzhang who get angry whenever he gets angry.
If Zhu Yuanzhang is not persuaded to give up his prejudice against the businessman and Shen Wansan, he may not know when this thunder will explode, so Ye Xuan plans to get Zhu Yuanzhang to give up his prejudice against the businessman and Shen Wansan.
Ye Xuan is like a master of chanting sutras, his fixed sounds are all about technique and no emotion.
He talked about the importance of businessmen to the country, the importance to the country's economy, the importance to the people, and the importance to the king.
Businessmen, kings, and people can benefit from each other.
Not hostile.
Nor is it deprivation.
Proper use of businessmen can strengthen the country, restore the country's economy, let the people live and work in peace and contentment, etc.
Ye Xuan talked a lot and his mouth went dry.
He looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang's face was expressionless, his pupils were dark and deep, and it was impossible to tell what Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking at this time.
Ye Xuan frowned slightly.
Brainwashing failed?
Since Zhu Yuanzhang did not agree with Shen Wansan going to sea, this shows that Zhu Yuanzhang was unwilling to let Shen Wansan go.
Ye Xuan is not pushy.
Brainwashing... No, it's about changing a person's point of view. It can't be forced. It needs to be done little by little.
He did not believe that he could not change Zhu Yuanzhang's views with his strongest words.
Ye Xuan has already made up his mind. During this period, he will block the door and brainwash Zhu Yuanzhang, not to mention letting Shen Wansan go to sea.
"Your Majesty, businessmen are actually not bad people..."
"Okay, I'll accept your thoughts."
"Shen Wansan is your father-in-law now, so you naturally have to speak for Shen Wansan. We are not fools. Don't we know what you mean.
"Thinking of your past achievements."
"Let's spare Shen Wansan.
Zhu Yuanzhang said.
A+$7:....
Good guy.
His previous plan was in vain.
In fact, he had just thought about how to brainwash Zhu Yuanzhang and make a living.
Who would have thought that Zhu Yuanzhang would let Shen Wansan go.
well.
What a pity.
The food is gone.
He also wanted to try the emperor's food.
The result was a bust.
Of course, he wanted to brainwash Zhu Yuanzhang into letting go of his hatred for Shen Wansan, not just to try the emperor's food.
