After completing the glass workshop, it can be regarded as temporarily solving the problem of the difficulty of capital turnover of the Ordnance Institute, and Liu Hong gradually settled down.

In the next few days, Liu Hong gradually used the excuse of learning the wedding ceremony system at home, and he was tired of being in the Guogong Mansion with his two wives every day.

Although Sun Xiuxiu gave birth to Yang Xue and became pregnant, Liu Hongjian always had a way to let the two help him solve his personal problems.

In his previous life, he was a student who had never even held a girl's hand, so how did he know what the joy of bed was.

Now that I have tasted the spring of the world, I know the true colors of heroes.

Alas, there is no way, it is when he is young and vigorous, and he doesn't want to go to the red light district to make mistakes!

On this day, it was night, Liu Hongjian was in the study, and he was already thinking about the question of where to sleep tonight, when suddenly the housekeeper Niu Danian came to report.

It was said that an adult who claimed to be surnamed Han came to visit and asked him if he had seen him.

Liu Hong gradually muttered, we have always been stingy in the court, and those civil officials are like hiding from the plague when they see their own officials.

What's the matter, there's still something you can't think of? Get up on your own?

"Bring him to the study!" Liu Hong gradually instructed Niu Danian.

Whatever, if you don't see the whole thing, it's like he can't see people, this group of rotten people.

A moment later there was the sound of walking outside the study, and an old man opened the curtain and came in.

"My lord, the right man of the Inspectorate of the Lower Officials has seen my lord!" When the man came in, he bowed down.

What's that? Inspectorate? What did the keyboard warrior come to him for? Still too light by him?

Liu Hong gradually had a lot of question marks on his head.

"Your name is Han Bo? I'm afraid I don't want to take advantage of my country's public! "My name is Uncle Liu, Liu Hong gradually thought.

"Lord Hui, the lower official is indeed called Han Bo!" This person also looked embarrassed when he stood in front of the hall.

It's the first time he's been asked to visit someone and won't even give him a seat, and now he's embarrassed.

"Well, Lord Han came to find this official late at night, what is the matter?

Oh, sit down, sit casually, you're welcome! Liu Hong gradually saw that the old man didn't seem to be here to spray him, and he was still standing dumbfounded, so he reminded.

In order to improve the brightness of the light in the room, Liu Hong gradually lit one, two, three, four or six candles in the study to illuminate the whole room transparently.

Anyway, these candles don't cost money, they were all brought by him from Uncle Chongzhen.

This man named Han Bo was about sixty years old, dressed in a gray robe, tall and thin, and looked particularly capable.

"Your Excellency is now a very popular minister, and it is no exaggeration to say that your every move will implicate the well-being of the entire Ming Dynasty.

Yes, the lower officials want to come and ask how the adults plan to help His Majesty rectify the Ming Dynasty! Saying this, Han Bo's eyes lit up.

Although Han Bo is in the Inspectorate, he is not as pedantic and narrow-minded as his colleagues in the imperial history, although he is over sixty years old and most of his hair is gray, his enthusiasm for fame and fortune has not diminished at all.

Now the young man in front of him is a red and purple figure in front of His Majesty, and he has long been willing to make friends.

However, not only is his official position low, but the identity of this imperial history alone has brought the two to the opposite side.

"Yo, it seems that he is still a royal history who worries about the country and the people, which is rare!" Liu Hong gradually became interested in this old man of imperial history.

"Then tell me how to remedy the current situation of Daming?" The servant brought tea, and Liu Hong gradually signaled Han Bo to use tea, and by the way, he commanded an army.

Where did you come from, you let your own country say that it is a good way to govern the country, and your country has to say it? Wouldn't that be shameless?

Besides, how can he know what good policies for governing the country are, it is nothing more than to see that it is not pleasing to the eye.

"The lower officials think that the maladministration of the Ming Dynasty can be summed up in sixteen words!" This Han Bo is not polite, he knows that if he wants to join the door, he must have the ability to do it.

"Oh? Which sixteen words? "Liu Hongjian rarely has contact with the ministers in the court, and usually talks directly to Chongzhen if he has any ideas.

"Taxation is disordered, land annexation is confusing, clans are complex, and the tail is too big to be lost." Han Bo's voice was calm, if these words were spread outside, it was estimated that his colleagues would say that he was shocking again.

But this is in the Anguo Mansion, if it is shocking, the young man in front of him will only be even worse than him.

Liu Hong gradually stroked his chin that had just come out of the stubble, pondering what the old man in front of him said.

Does the tax confusion mean that the court focused its tax on the people, rather than on the merchants? Well, that's a good point.

Not to mention land annexation, just look at why the peasant army rebelled, the people don't have land in the first place, and you still collect other people's taxes, who are you against if you don't oppose you?

What the hell is this huge clan? Liu Hong was a little puzzled.

"Well, the first two sentences are still a little interesting, what do you mean by the last two sentences?" Shameless questioning has always been one of Liu Hongchuan's few virtues.

"Lord Hui, the Ming Dynasty has been inherited for nearly three hundred years, do you know how many people are in the Ming clan today?" Han Bo asked rhetorically.

Liu Hong gradually shook his head like a rattle.

"My lord, there are more than 320,000 royal relatives in the Ming Dynasty now!" When Han Bo said this, his excited voice trembled a little.

Perhaps it was because Comrade Zhu Chongba endured too much hardship when he was young, and while hating corrupt officials to the core, he gave special preferential treatment to his children and grandchildren.

According to the Ming ancestral system, the prince will be given 10,000 stone per year, the county king will be 2,000 stone, and the general Zhenguo will be 1,000 stone...... And so on, the lowest lieutenant of Fengguo also has two hundred stones.

And an ordinary person studied hard for ten years, was admitted to the Jinshi and became the county commander of the seventh grade, and the year's salary was only ninety stones, a typical spelling father's era!

At the beginning of the Hongwu Dynasty, there were fifty-eight members of the clan, but I didn't think there was anything.

But these clans can neither engage in agriculture and commerce, nor can they be officials and commanders, the only thing they can do is to marry a wife and have children!

It is said that some vassal kings also compared with each other to see who had more sons, and Zhu Jixuan, the king of Qingcheng, alone gave birth to one hundred and eight sons, not counting daughters.

Since the birth of these sons, the Ming court will begin to give them a fortune, although except for the eldest son, the other sons will be demoted, but there are many people!

In addition, in addition to the high amount of money for nothing, what marriage, building a house, relying on, and funeral are all allocated by the imperial court separately, and there is no need to spend wages, is it too cool?

So much so that in the financial expenditure of the imperial court at the end of the Ming Dynasty, only members of the clan accounted for one-third......

"There are so many ......" After listening to Uncle Han's explanation, Liu Hong gradually gained a deep understanding of Uncle Zhu's 'big family'.

It turns out that part of the reason for the demise of the Ming Dynasty is that he was eaten to death by his own children and grandchildren, I don't know if Comrade Zhu Chongba will regret it......

"Well, according to what you said, it makes the official raise his posture, but it's just ......" Liu Hong gradually glanced at Han Bo, and seemed to see helplessness in the other party's eyes.

Yes, this is a family affair of the old Zhu family, and this thing is not easy to do!

"The adults are eclectic but to the point, a year to bring the Ming back to life, it is really a great talent in the world, the official is here to vote, is to hope to be in the same boat with the adults, to tide over the difficulties.

I hope you can give me this opportunity! Seeing that Liu Hong was gradually pondering, this Han Bo got up and saluted again, waiting for Liu Hong's reply.
