Chapter 453 Silver is the hard-earned money of the people


Chapter 453 Silver is the hard-earned money of the people

Silver is silver, a natural currency. Zhu Yijun did not understand the question, but he was more interested in the research of the two ministers Wang Guoguang and Wang Daokun. There is a high degree of overlap between scholars and officials in the Ming Dynasty, especially in politics and economics, because the content they summarize is not based on fantasy, but is a summary of experience combined with practice.

Zhu Yijun attaches great importance to their research.

The emperor did not use his privilege to inquire, but quietly waited for them to study and understand, and then wrote a memorial and sent it to him.

Wang Daokun was a member of the Zhejiang Party. When he rehabilitated Hu Zongxian, Wang Daokun was among the people who ran away, but Wang Guoguang was a traitor to the Jin Party. When Wang Chonggu left, the first thing he thought of was to hand over the leader of the Jin Party to him.

Whether it is in terms of personal talents or status, what the two of them are doing together as a team, you will know if you think about it, it is not simple.

Chen Chengyi had a dinner at Tonghe Palace. His Majesty asked many questions. Chen Chengyi answered carefully, and Zhu Yijun gained a lot.

After this chat, it was time for dinner. Zhu Yijun simply stayed with Chen Chengyi to eat, and used small favors to win people's hearts.

The craftsmen led by Chen Chengyi will deliver 12 million kilograms of red copper to the Ming Dynasty this year. Together with the 6.5 million kilograms of Yunnan copper, the Ming Dynasty can cast up to 1.3 billion Wanli Tongbao this year. If the fire consumption is less , it is even possible to mint 1.4 billion coins.

As the emperor, Zhu Yijun was in charge of Chen Chengyi's meals. This is what he should do and he is a holy family member.

Wanli Tongbao has two coins, five coins, four coins, eight coins, nine coins and other regulations. Among them, two coins are the most. Under the two coins, a small flat is also trial-produced, which is only about one coin. It is affiliated to the Baoyuan Bureau of the Ministry of Industry. The money minting bureau once presented this kind of small flat money, which was probably the same as the privately minted flying money on the market. This kind of money was too easy to damage, so it was finally settled on two coins.

The Wanli Tongbao weighing two coins is about five baht, one pound is sixteen taels, one tael is twenty-four baht, and one tael is also ten coins.

Zhu Yijun asked about various affairs in Nanyang.

The conflict between the Governor-General of Ming Dynasty and the Governor-General of Goa. The Governor-General of Goa has been operating in the Strait of Malacca for sixty years. However, there are red-haired fan fortresses in dangerous places. These are hard bones that can only be chewed bit by bit; more than 150 footholds have been established in the Nanyang Yuanxu Islands, and these footholds are gradually evolving into plantations; the Spanish colonists in Mindanao are very honest, and these colonists used to be very honest. Trying to retake the Cebu Islands, they are too lazy to move now.

If you can’t win again and again, it’s better to do some reliable business.

In short, Nanyang is gradually becoming the back garden of the Ming Dynasty under the development of Yin Zhengmao.

Chen Chengyi said goodbye to His Majesty and left Tonghe Palace. During this time in the capital, Chen Chengyi got to know His Majesty well. He was not like the rumored tyrant who killed without blinking an eye, but was actually quite kind. , and has a bright and sunny smile. I don’t know why there are rumors that His Majesty kills people while sleeping. This kind of strange rumor cannot be believed.

Wang Daokun and Wang Guoguang came to the Quanchu Guild Hall again and found Yuanfu, the great master of the Ming Dynasty. Because he had a memorial, he wanted to show it to Zhang Juzheng first before going to the memorial. Zhang Juzheng waved his hands repeatedly to signal the two not to do this. Do! There is no injustice or enmity, so why do you want to harm him, Zhang Juzheng, to such an extent?

Because the last person who did this was named Hu Weiyong.

Wang Daokun and Wang Guoguang immediately went to invite Wan Shihe, and only then did Zhang Juzheng let several Ming Gongs in.

Wan Shihe is a die-hard imperialist. Wan Shihe joined. The issue discussed was not to be discussed without His Majesty. When the idea is immature, it is extremely hasty to report it to His Majesty. However, His Majesty has no idea what they are talking about. Ignorance is also very dangerous. After adding Wanshi and this snake oil, everything is no longer a problem.

Zhu Yijun emphasized more than once that the DPRK needs such a versatile figure.

"What are we going to talk about specifically, the rites of officials and household workers, and the four ministerial books are all here." Wan Shihe took a sip of tea. He was studying Xu Jiugao's navigation notes to compile "Overseas Fanguo Zhi". He was suddenly called to the Quanchu Guild Hall and asked curiously.

"It's nothing, just what is silver." Wang Daokun said with a serious face: "What is silver? The Ming Dynasty is poor in silver. The total silver mountains of the Ming Dynasty only amount to one hundred thousand taels a year. All silver comes from overseas. The silver of the Ming Dynasty is a concrete manifestation of the labor of the people of the Ming Dynasty. To be more clear, silver is the hard-earned money of the people of the Ming Dynasty who worked diligently. "

Wang Daokun has been studying it for the past seven months since he came to Beijing. The question is what exactly is silver? The output of silver in the Ming Dynasty was very low, so the silver flowed into the Ming Dynasty. He went to Songjiang Prefecture and ran Songjiang Prefecture into the first port in the Ming Dynasty. A steady stream of goods was exchanged for the inflow of silver.

These goods are inextricably linked to everyone in the Ming Dynasty.

Women and children raising silkworms on silk, vendors walking around the streets collecting silk, weavers processing silkworm cocoons into raw silk, weavers from the weaving bureau weaving silk satins, dyeing workshop craftsmen, transporters The labor of goods, the kiln workers in the porcelain kilns, the boatmen in the shipyard, the people who cut wood, the long industrial chain of tung oil, etc., all goods are closely related to the people of the Ming Dynasty.

In the nine years that Wang Daokun has been in Songjiang Prefecture, he has witnessed countless industries from scratch in Songjiang Prefecture, and has witnessed the birth of goods. The sails covering the sky and sun in Xingang Port are the miracle of Daming Sea Trade. .

The hard work of the people of Ming Dynasty created the miracle of sea trade.

The inflow of silver is the concrete manifestation of labor.

"What Da Sikong said makes sense." Wan Shihe was silent for a moment, feeling that Wang Daokun's words might lead to a bloody storm!

"What do Yuan Fu think?" Wang Daokun asked Zhang Juzheng for his opinion. He and Wang Guoguang argued countless times and finally determined the fact that the silver flowing into Dabai was essentially the hard-earned money of the people of Ming Dynasty.

Zhang Juzheng took a sip of tea, but did not answer immediately, because he knew that his statement would directly affect the direction of the court. Between the lightning and flint, Zhang Juzheng was thinking a lot. He looked at Wang Daokun and then at Wang Guoguang. , waved his hand and said: "Stop talking, stop talking."

"Sir!" Wang Daokun stood up suddenly. He imagined countless possibilities, but the only one he didn't expect was that Zhang Juzheng started to pretend. Confused master!

Zhang Juzheng is really disappointing!

Wang Guoguang tugged on Wang Daokun's clothes and advised: "Be calm and don't be impatient. Yuan Fu is the chief minister of the country. He must pay attention to the overall situation. This is not a trivial matter. You With this kind of characterization, many things have to change, and Yuanfu also has the same difficulties as Yuanfu. "

Zhang Juzheng, the Imperial Tutor Yuanfu, has a status that determines that he cannot express his stance easily, and his stance will affect the future of the Ming Dynasty. Zhang Juzheng actually knew the direction of the economy. Wang Daokun was right, silver is the hard-earned money of the people.

He has been writing the second volume of "The Theory of Class", which is the distribution volume.

He couldn't write it, not because he didn't understand it, but because he didn't know what impact it would have, so he didn't start writing. He was not a scientific speaker who chatted endlessly and had to say a few words whether he understood or didn't understand. , he is the first assistant with partial decision-making power.

As soon as Wang Daokun said these words, even the emperor was beaten. Every cent of real gold and silver used by the emperor was the people's fat and the people's anointing. The wedding of King Lu was very expensive, similar to Question, Wang Daokun's words may become a knife that stabs the emperor.

And as soon as this sentence comes out, why should the hereditary official class, military honors, and clan members be hereditary?

The meaning of this is equivalent to the prince and general Xiang Ning having a certain kind.

It’s confirmed, after Tan Lun left, the biggest radical in the Ming Dynasty was Wang Daokun!

Is this Zhejiang Party planning to be radical from beginning to end?

"Specific issues, specific discussions." Zhang Juzheng thought for a while and decided to set limits for Wang Daokun. The issue of silver can be discussed, but His Majesty cannot be involved.

Wang Daokun frowned. He didn’t know the specific scope of this. It wasn’t that he was stupid. In fact, he had been stuck on this problem during this period of time. When he suddenly figured it out, he was so excited that he had never thought about it. The terrifying power of this statement.

Wang Guoguang looked at Wan Shihe, and Wang Daokun immediately understood that he already knew the specific scope.

The affairs of the subjects should not be elevated to the level of the king!

Those who opposed the opening of the sea in the Ming Dynasty were all conservatives. What conservatives hate most is change. Conservatives have always advocated royalism. This large influx of silver moved people's thoughts, humanistic thoughts, financial affairs, and political systems. His great thinking, if he is not careful, it will affect the imperial power.

Wang Dao Kunca was stunned. He was speechless for a moment, because what he was going to say next would definitely involve topics that should not be touched.

"What Da Sikong is thinking is that the hard-earned money of the people of the Ming Dynasty is wasted." Wang Guangguang pointed out what Wang Daokun wanted to say specifically. His Majesty is still frugal. It has been known to the world for so many years, so the discussion of waste will not affect His Majesty. , is a safe topic.

"Yes! Waste!" Wang Daokun's eyes lit up. To this extent, His Majesty in Tsing Yi would never be involved!

The experienced Da Situ still knows the art of speaking.

No one can accuse the Ming Emperor of extravagance, because His Majesty wears Tsing Yi, which emperor wears Tsing Yi.

“The silver of the Ming Dynasty is the hard-earned money of the people of the Ming Dynasty, and these hard-earned money are being wasted. This waste is mainly concentrated in three aspects. The first is the idling of dams, and the second is repeated sinking. , The third one is losing overseas." Wang Daokun started talking.

The idling of weirs has been discussed many times, but Wang Daokun did not elaborate further. Basically, money always flows to places where there is no shortage of money.

Repetition means that Daming’s handicraft workshops always do repetitive things over and over again. It’s obvious that the family has completely conquered it or accidentally found a way to improve productivity, but they just use it behind closed doors without anyone asking around. They are all taboos and lack a mechanism to reduce duplication of investment.

The sinking was a very heartbreaking thing for Wang Daokun. The Ming Dynasty handicraft workshop was invested in, but the operation was poor, and it was finally left vacant. The huge investment was shelved. It was as heartbreaking as fertile land with no one to cultivate it. And A lot of silver was buried in the pigsty!

Losing overseas is a new contradiction after the Ming Dynasty opened the sea. The Zheshe households of the Ming Dynasty were afraid of the majesty of the imperial court and opposed the imperial interference. They took the hard-earned money of the Ming Dynasty overseas. The development of the Yuanxu Islands was vigorous. For this reason, Ming Dynasty's silver is losing and fleeing.

"If you want to talk about waste, you can talk about it." Zhang Juzheng was relieved. His feelings were not for the emperor, so he could talk about it.

"I have been governor of Songjiang for nine years. I am watching the sunset today. Da Sikong is no longer what he used to be. Back then, Da Sikong was best at composing some dramas." Zhang Juzheng looked at Wang Daokun with emotion. This guy was the best at writing dramas in the past. Jia, who has served in Songjiang Prefecture for many years, has now become a radical among radicals.

Wang Daokun thought very well about the silver issue.

Wang Daokun talked eloquently about the phenomena, the problems behind the phenomena, and the causes of the problems, but at this point, it was still empty talk. Wang Daokun must come up with concrete and feasible methods, at least there should be a clear program.

“How should this problem of wasted silver be solved?” Zhang Juzheng asked curiously. He had some ideas, but they were immature.

Wang Daokun stood up and said loudly with a red face: "The best way is to increase assets! As long as the silver of current assets can be fixed as fixed assets of Ming Dynasty, overseas plantations and Tongyuan in the hinterland of Ming Dynasty , reclaiming wasteland, handicraft workshops, family houses and farm buildings, large factories, government factories, and even training boatmen and craftsmen can be regarded as increasing the assets of Ming Dynasty."

"As long as fixed assets are allowed to increase, that is. There is no waste!" Zhang Juzheng nodded and began to understand Wang Daokun's words. In fact, even the humble Confucians and the supervisors of the Imperial College could not understand what Wang Daokun was talking about, but Zhang Juzheng could understand.

Are overseas plantations considered fixed assets of Ming Dynasty if they are overseas? Indeed, because the output of these plantations cannot be digested by overseas countries, it will eventually be fed back to the Ming Dynasty. Overseas plantations are also part of the fixed assets of the Ming Dynasty.

Can boat masters and craftsmen also be considered fixed assets? To fully understand this, you must be proficient in the "Production Diagram". The production diagram divides assets into reserved, mobile and fixed assets, and a person's experience is also a fixed asset, especially a large number of educated talents, which is a valuable fixed asset of Ming Dynasty. Assets, boat masters are also part of the fixed assets of Ming Dynasty.

Is there an inevitable connection between asset growth and silver waste? The connection is very close, and the speed of asset growth is almost the same as the speed of silver inflow, so that silver can flow smoothly and function as a thoroughfare for department stores.

"Felipe II knows Da Sikong's talents and will probably risk everything to take Da Sikong back to Taixi to be the Minister of State." Zhang Juzheng said sincerely.

Wang Daokun then sat down and said: "Ah, this is actually a fool who thinks a lot, but there is only one gain. Yuan Fu is ridiculous."

The test of asset appreciation becomes This is a typical use of administrative power to interfere in the market, and the value-added of these fixed assets can be quantified and then tested. The overall growth rate of fixed assets in Ming Dynasty must reach at least 70% of the silver inflow to be considered efficient, and there is no need to pay. Too much administrative investment is required, and rough inferences can be made only from the quantity of various commodities exported from sea trade.

Zhang Juzheng's mind has been turned upside down, and countless policies have taken shape.

Zhang Juzheng was shocked to find that he originally implemented the New Deal to solve problems, but in the end, one problem was solved and two others emerged! He thought that after completing the major tasks of passing the imperial examination, clearing his father's land, rectifying academic affairs, and revitalizing the military and military, he should enjoy the changes brought by the New Deal to the Ming Dynasty. As a result, Wang Chonggu gave him a land equalization service. Wang Daokun gave him the task of asset enhancement.

When will this... be busy? Although it feels good to be busy, it is too fulfilling.

“I have a few immature ideas. For example, if the silver is lost overseas, can we levy profits tax on it? If he takes the silver out, he will have to pay a one-time tax on his assets in Daming. 50%, after leaving the Ming Dynasty, the tariff should be increased to at least 20%." Wang Daokun said tentatively.

Profits tax, this design is not only to ensure tax fairness and prevent the loss of tax revenue caused by wealth transfer, but also to facilitate tax inspection by tax authorities and prevent tax evasion.

When the radicals took action, it was a killer move. When the sea was not opened, the Ming Dynasty did not need to face this problem, but after the sea was opened, this issue became particularly important. The people of the Ming Dynasty worked hard The income and the silver that was gained flowed in, but it was lost in vain, and the Ming Dynasty was the one who lost it!

Finding a way to fix the silver of current assets is Wang Daokun's main purpose.

"How to implement it?" Zhang Juzheng thought for a while and felt that it was extremely difficult to implement.

Da Situ Wang Guoguang immediately said: "It's very simple. You just need to block the gold, silver and copper and go to sea. That's it. If the Zheshe households really want to escape, they will definitely turn all the assets in their hands into For silver, and then leave with the silver, the land, houses, and workshops cannot be taken away, so it is called profits tax, which is an additional tax for the silver going overseas.”

Zheshe households only need to pay. How can it be such a good thing to exchange the assets in your hands for silver and then leave in a big way? In the past, it could not be transferred because there was no inflow of silver. Now that there is sufficient general equivalent, this will inevitably happen.

Zhang Juzheng nodded. It has to be said that the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs got together. These two scholars came together and came up with a good idea.

If silver is blocked from flowing overseas, assets will be blocked from fleeing.

"Why did they leave? The Ming Dynasty was a kingdom in heaven. To take the silver and run overseas, isn't that to sacrifice the good for the weak?" Wan Shihe frowned, feeling that Wang Daokun was alarmist, and Zheshehu was not stupid. , looking at the entire earth, Ming Dynasty is the most prosperous one. Why not go abroad and show your teeth to gorillas? Overseas is a wild land.

Wang Daokun is questioning the value of the Celestial Kingdom.

"Relocating the land and relocating it is the nature of the people; being close to each other is the wish of human beings." Wan Shihe explained his doubts. He felt that Wang Daokun was somewhat shooting in the void. Where did the current Ming Dynasty come from? The question is, how could there be such a problem under the culture of resettlement and resettlement?

These poor people who live in sheltered households are not doing so well. If they go overseas, wouldn’t they just become refugees? The common people became refugees because they could no longer survive. What kind of brains did these overbearing households have to do this?

It doesn’t make sense logically.

To be more precise, Wan Shi and the Minister of Rites did not believe it.

"Yes, flesh and blood are the same as human beings wish." Wang Daokun said with emotion: "If I hadn't seen this strange phenomenon with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it. Do you know why the Zheshe households want to do this?" Escape? They feel that Ming Dynasty has no freedom. "Freedom?" Wan Shihe's face is full of '? ’.

This reason stunned Wan Shihe, who had studied ancient and modern times. He boasted that he had read hundreds of thousands of books, if not ten thousand. Wan Shihe was really puzzled by this reason.

Wang Daokun said with mixed feelings: "Yes, freedom. They feel that the court is lenient. In the past, they had no choice. Now if they have the opportunity, they will go overseas. They would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. They They would rather dominate overseas than be restrained by the imperial court. In their understanding, Zheshe households are just pigs waiting to be slaughtered. As long as they are fattened, the imperial court will kill the pigs. If the imperial court is short of money, they will kill the pigs. He knows how to kill pigs."

"Yin Zhengmao dismantled the door and moved the bed, and even took the door to Luzon and used it as the gate of the Governor's Mansion. Ling Yunyi simply killed people and refused to pledge or give up his wealth. There are many heads of people, including Zhang Siwei, Yanzhou Kong Mansion, Xindu Yang Family, Nanya Qingzhang Huantian, Taxation Yuan..."

Wang Daokun just gave a few examples, and from the standpoint of the luxury households, It was the Ming Dynasty that was harshly criticizing the noble families, and even the Confucius Mansion collapsed. It was strange that they could feel safe. They always felt like there was a chill on the back of their necks, and they dreamed of having a sharp sword hanging from their head, and that they would die at any time.

"They didn't violate the laws of the Ming Dynasty, so the court had nothing to do to keep an eye on them?" Wan Shihe spread his hands.

Wang Daokun said with a smile: "It will be more uncomfortable for you to make them abide by the laws of the Ming Dynasty than to kill them."

"This profits tax is good." Zhang Juzheng said with considerable approval: "Okay Very good, if there is a memorial, I can submit it jointly.”

In the joint report, it was Zhang Juzheng who was scolded. He had too many lice but it didn't itch. Compared with a few scoldings, the waste of silver was the problem that needed to be solved urgently.

The essence of white silver is the hard-earned money of the people of the Ming Dynasty. There is no doubt about this, because all commercial goods are created by the people’s hands; a large amount of silver flowing in is idling in the weirs, Repeated sinking and loss overseas have prevented the inflow of silver from fulfilling its function as currency; in the face of this problem, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Accounts have given a solution to achieve asset growth and limit the outflow of silver.

Just like when Zhai Luan, the minister of the Ministry of War and the assistant minister of the cabinet, eliminated and revitalized the Beijing camp, Zhai Luan provided all the phenomena, problems, causes, and practical solutions, but it just couldn't be done. , noisy and repeated for many years, but in the end there was no result.

There was no problem that the Ming Dynasty could not be implemented in the ninth year of Wanli. Zhang Juzheng's personal prestige and the institutional construction of his New Deal could ensure the smooth flow of government orders. The restoration of the administrative power of the Ming Dynasty was the foundation of all New Deals.

Zhang Juzheng communicated with Wang Daokun and Wang Guoguang for a long time, mainly to strengthen the circulation of silver from six aspects.

Profits tax is only one of them.

Second: Minting, Ming silver coins with a face value and weight of one tael, will be expanded in the capital. At present, the Ming court only prints 400,000 silver coins a year. This number will become 400,000 silver coins in five years. One million silver must be increased to the same amount as the inflow of silver within ten years before silver can initially turn into a real currency; Wanli Tongbao must reach five billion within five years, and more than eight billion within ten years , can the dam be completely pierced.

The Ministry of Industry has a Baoyuan Bureau, and the Ministry of Households has a Baobao Bureau. These are the places where Wanli Tongbao was cast and Baobao was printed in the Ming Dynasty. This time, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households joined forces to assist with the internal affairs. The war bureau of the Ministry of Commerce pressed silver.

Third: Ministry of Commerce, the institutional construction of the Ministry of Commerce, establishing a three-level merchant management organization between commercial banks, merchant gangs, and merchants, improving management functions, and even establishing the Ministry of Commerce when necessary, turning six ministries into seven ministries , specializes in business management. With the influx of large amounts of silver, the court has deeply felt the power of money, so this power is determined not to get out of control and carry out administrative management of business.

Excessive administrative management will lose its vitality, but without any administrative management, it will degenerate into the slave era. The Central Plains has gone from slavery, feudalism (feudal land and country building) to the county system. Necessary administrative management will prevent society from being ruined. There is a loss of coordination of forces among various classes and groups.

Fourth: Schools, craftsman schools and boat master schools must be expanded. This needs to be realized based on government and factory formation. Cultivating talents is a necessary step for the increase of fixed assets in the Ming Dynasty. The ability of the human subject to change nature is the definition of productivity, which is divorced from A people-centered program will be wrong for the world.

Jinzhou, Tianjin, Mizhou, Ningbo, Fuzhou, Guangzhou and other nine places with close trade and shipping exchanges, relying on the Municipal Shipping Department to establish maritime schools, has become a five-year plan.

Fifth: Circulation. The Civil Credit Bureau has emerged among the people. Based on the Kowloon Post Road leading to various parts of the Ming Dynasty, relying on the post station, it carries out official acceptance and exchange. This is to increase commercial and trade circulation, and it is also increasing the direction of silver. Silver coin conversion solves the problem of the Ming Dynasty’s Zheshe households burying their silver in pigsties. Burying silver in pigsties is also a typical feature of the Ming Dynasty people’s hard-earned money being idle in the hands of a few people.

Silver as a currency has its own limitations. Whether it is bulk trade or small transactions, there are many limitations. For example, the Ming Dynasty’s silver ingot counterfeiting technology was superb, which put bulk trade into a dilemma. The dilemma of inspection is that small-amount transactions require silver clipping. It is most convenient to calculate transactions in units of two. For small-amount transactions, due to the long-term absence of Ming Tongbao, the downward precipitation of silver is also part of the waste.

Sixth: Open technology, rely on Huangzhuang, price technology, and transform technology from intangible assets to purchasable and tradable assets. Anyone needs to purchase technology from Huangzhuang before they can apply it. , and part of the harvest from Huangzhuang needs to be distributed to individuals or groups who have made technological breakthroughs. This is a real encouragement to investment in private workshops and at the same time reduce internal consumption.

"Actually, I think that at the moment, it is better to directly buy out the technology from Huangzhuang and then sell it." Wan Shihe had been listening, but when it came to his professional field, he put forward his own opinions.

The direct buyout of Huangzhuang relies on the emperor's firm credibility, not robbery. Although His Majesty is stingy, he has never forcibly occupied any technology, whether it is Wang Chonggu's "The Woolen Official Factory" "Zhi" or all the achievements of Zhu Zaiyu of the Imperial Academy of Sciences, whoever belongs to them belongs to whom. Even the theory of contradictions has Zhang Juzheng's signature.

Faced with the arrogant occupation of Zheshehu, individuals have no ability to resist. It is better to pretend to rely on imperial power.

"Your opinion is very good!" Zhang Juzheng's eyes lit up after hearing this. For matters like surrender, it still depends on the imperial party. Others are not opponents.

His Majesty's imperial power will have one more hegemony, and that is technological hegemony. Even if the Ming Dynasty royal family is unfilial in the future, this technological hegemony will be enough to eat and drink.

"Would Wang Cifu object?" Wang Daokun said worriedly.

Zhang Juzheng said with great certainty: "No, Wang Chonggu has been busy beating his son recently."

Wang Chonggu beats his son, and he is also idle. This matter in the old Wang family has become a problem. It's a joke in the capital and everyone knows it.
