MTL - Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty-v2 Chapter 1625 The strong man is gone

  Chapter 1625 The strong man is gone

  Zhu Zaimo saw that his mentor was suspicious, and immediately said solemnly: "Men, the recent innovations have caused gentry wailing all over the place, and students are very worried."

  Fang Jifan's face changed slightly after hearing Zhu Zaimo's words.

Zhu Zaimo hurriedly said: "Teacher, it's not that the students disapprove of innovation. Today, the replacement of the old with the new has reached an urgent time. If the problems of the land are not eliminated today, they will sooner or later become my confidant's troubles. Now, the land of the Qianzhuang Rent-free to the common people, accepting refugees, and because of this rent-free, the rent price of the land plummeted. This is a great policy that benefits the Ming Dynasty. This move by the teacher can be said to have opened up the peace of my Ming Dynasty for 500 years. If the people are benefited, there must be someone who suffers, and the beneficiaries are certainly praised, but the victims lose everything, are they willing?"

  Fang Jifan said righteously: "Then let them come. Come and find me, Fang Jifan. As a teacher, you will never fear death. Come one, and I will order hundreds of people to beat one to death."

Zhu Zaimo said: "But these people are definitely not idle people. Teacher, they are just being disrupted now. After all, they have been operating in the local area for hundreds of years, or even hundreds of years. Since then, it has already become a prominent family in the local area. Even if such a family suffers a heavy loss this time, it is still a skinny camel that is bigger than a horse. Although the emperor's grandfather is holy, he can't take care of a corner of the world after all. Although they are extremely smart, they cannot keep an eye on them all the time. If they act obediently and disobey, and cause disasters in the local area, it is the common people who will harm them.”

"Master, if we don't solve this problem, it is needless to say that my Ming Dynasty is prosperous now, but if there is a slight change in the court over time, it will inevitably be caused by people. On the surface, they are advocating the way of Confucius and Mencius, but in reality, they are powerful, the way of Confucius and Mencius, Etiquette, righteousness, honesty and shame are nothing but a cloak, and its foundation is not the slightest difference from the tyrants of the Han Dynasty and the powerful families of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Therefore, the students thought, instead of keeping these hidden dangers, why… think of a way to ease these contradictions?"

  After Fang Jifan listened, he suddenly felt something interesting.

He looked at Zhu Zaimo, Zhu Zaimo looked innocent, even though he was pretending to be mature, he could vaguely see the immaturity on his face, but... under this immature coat, it was obvious that Hiding a restless mind.

   In the future, this son may be stronger than his grandfather and father.

  Fang Jifan didn't make a statement for the time being, but he was obviously a little more serious, and said: "Go on."

Zhu Zaimo said: "Luxong is different. From Brother Xu's book, the students learned that Luzon's land is extremely fertile. After the Spaniards arrived there, they built castles on the one hand and eroded the natives of Luzon on the other. They burned, killed, looted, committed all kinds of crimes, and were horrific. They established manors one by one in Luzon. It is said that these manors are rich in rice, vegetables and fruits. Because of their unique location, the output is extremely high. If I Ming can replace the Spaniards, Then, it might as well, we can carry out land exchange for the gentry, they pay one mu of land to the court, and they can replace three to five mu of land in Luzon. The contradictions of my great Ming, at the same time, can also be used by my great Ming to manage the West. This strategy of killing three birds with one stone seems like a fantasy, but the students are taught by their mentors, and they know more and more that if they want to succeed in everything, they will eventually succeed. It is man-made, as long as you dare to think, there is nothing you cannot do."

   Kill three birds with one stone?

  Fang Jifan frowned and thought carefully, deliberating on this plan.

It seems very attractive. Although Xishan Bank has obtained a large amount of land, more land in this world is still in the hands of gentry. Although their land income is already very bleak, if they do not take these land Come back, there is no guarantee that there will be no hidden dangers in the future.

  The people of Ming Dynasty could not be resettled without land.

   And Luzon... just replaced the Spanish landlords with Ming gentry.

  This grandson of the emperor has actually learned the method of transferring internal contradictions to external contradictions.

   I have to give a compliment, this kid is very promising.

  Fang Jifan propped his chin and said: "If it is a large-scale use of troops, it may not be appropriate. Where is your majesty..."

  Zhu Zaimo said with a smile: "You can send an envoy as an internal response. There are students who can choose."

  Fang Jifan showed an appreciative smile, it seems that his favorite student has done his homework long ago, and said: "I don't know who?"

  Zhu Zaimo said: "The son of Duke Wei, Xu Pengju!"

  Xu Pengju...

  Fang Jifan has an impression.

  At the beginning, if he remembered correctly, this person was Zhu Xiurong's little follower. When he was in the nursery...

  Oh, yes, this kid is still his disciple.

  Of course, in real terms, he is actually Zhu Xiurong's disciple.

  After that...he seemed to be given a good name.

  What is it called?

  Fang Jifan suddenly opened his eyes: "But that Xu Pengju who is called Xiao Ouyang?"

   "It's him." Zhu Zaimo said: "He is the most honest and obedient. There is nothing in the world that he dare not do. As long as he is appointed, he will dare to do it."

  After Zhu Zaimo's reminder, Fang Jifan's mind suddenly became brighter.

   Then I heard Zhu Zaimo say: "It's just that the students are still immature after all, and they don't have a clue how to do it. I don't know what the teacher has to teach."

Fang Jifan's eyes lit up, a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes, and he smiled casually: "Haha, it's easy, Xu Pengju... Go call him, I'll teach you the secret face to face, this matter is a secret, for now, don't let anyone Tell him, I'll give him a few tricks, so that Xu Pengju can go to Luzon, and he won't be able to catch him by then."

  As soon as Zhu Zaimo was refreshed, he knew that his mentor had a way.

  Zhu Zaimo said: "He's already here, just outside."

  …

   Not long after, a dull boy stepped in.

   Seeing Fang Jifan, he immediately fell to the ground: "I have seen my mentor."

  Fang Jifan made eye contact with Zhu Zaimo, and they smiled at each other.

  Fang Jifan said: "I heard that people call you Xiao Ouyang, do you know why they call you that?"

  Xu Pengju looked bewildered, scratched his head and said, "I don't know."

  Fang Jifan said with emotion: "The emperor said that you are very modest, and it is true. The reason why you are called Xiao Ouyang is because you have the iron courage of your big brother Ouyang, and you have a noble quality like a green pine."

  Xu Pengju thought for a while, felt reasonable, then nodded: "Oh."

  Fang Jifan said: "If there is something for my teacher, I ask you to do it, and I don't tell you why, would you dare to do it?"

  Xu Pengju scratched his head again, thought for a long time, and said, "Oh."

   "Oh, what do you mean?" Fang Jifan couldn't help baring his teeth, the atmosphere was not as warm as he had imagined, which dampened his enthusiasm.

  Xu Pengju said: "Okay."

Fang Jifan said conveniently: "Let me tell you earlier, my teacher has been observing you all the time, knowing that you are different from others, and the emperor's grandson has also been recommending you in front of my teacher. It can be said that the teacher and the emperor's grandson coincide with each other, but this time It's a narrow escape, aren't you afraid? If you are afraid, then forget it and choose someone who is worse than you for the teacher."

  Xu Pengju thought for a long time, and asked seriously: "Who is the person who is worse than the students?"

  Fang Jifan: "..."

  He felt that he could no longer communicate effectively with Xu Pengju.

  Your uncle, what do you say when I say something?

  If it wasn't for letting you escape from death, according to the teacher's petty temper, wouldn't you be beaten to death?

  Fang Jifan looked for the most direct words and said: "The teacher is asking if you dare to go?"

  Xu Pengju shook his brain.

   It seems that his big head is his heavy burden.

  His gaze seemed to be so hazy whenever and wherever, he nodded and said: "Go. Whatever the teacher says, it is what it is."

Fang Jifan couldn't help saying: "It seems that you are not afraid of death. Hey, I am very pleased to be a teacher. What I, Daming and Xishan Academy, lack is a strong man like you. Come, I will teach you some words, you carefully listened."

  Fang Jifan turned to Zhu Zaimo again and said: "Your Highness, please avoid it for a while. If others know these words, they will not be effective."

  Zhu Zaimo is very knowledgeable, so he avoids it in a hurry.

  Fang Jifan then called Xu Pengju to the front, said something in a low voice, and then said: "Do you understand?"

  Xu Pengju's eyes were still hazy, and he thought for a long time: "I don't quite understand."

  Fang Jifan grinned: "It's like a dog, try saying it again."

   "I don't understand."

  Fang Jifan couldn't bear it anymore and patted him on the head fiercely.

  Who knew that this guy didn't feel any pain, he was like a normal person, he shook his head, and he had the chicness of killing me immediately with a horizontal knife.

  Fang Jifan really had to give in, so he had to take the next best thing: "Then, can you write down these words?"

   "Although I don't understand, I can write it down."

  Fang Jifan breathed out: "If you can write down these words, then... can you follow suit?"

  It's really hard...

   Fortunately, Xu Pengju nodded desperately: "Yes."

  Fang Jifan felt relieved, no matter what he said, it seemed that this person's IQ was not as serious as he imagined.

Fang Jifan finally calmed down, showing a little bit of gentleness, and touched his big head: "I love you for my teacher, you go back and clean up, don't tell others about this, you secretly follow the method of a teacher , and... this matter is the idea of ​​the emperor's grandson, have you written it down?"

  Xu Pengju thought for a while: "Remember, it was the emperor's grandson who taught me how to do it."

Fang Jifan urged again: "Eat a good meal, after cleaning up, is there anything else you want to do, such as...you feel a little regretful, you feel that you can't give up, you know the meal with a severed head, this is what the teacher said mean."

  The so-called decapitation meal is the consolation of the death row prisoner before his death. People are dying.

  Hearing this, Xu Pengju's eyes became more hazy suddenly, and then he burst into tears, and said vaguely: "I want to see my wife. In this world, only my wife treats me best."
