Today, there is not only a large-scale collision in the emperor's circle, but also the most intense sparks in culture. The economic, political and military competition between various countries has entered a white-hot stage, but only on the cultural level there is no major conflict.

The large-scale collision is only a small-scale promotion, such as the emergence of Yuan, Ming and Qing novels, which produced some "bloody crimes" and fun.

After Luo Ben was rescued, Zhu Yuanzhang began to station troops around Luo Mansion to protect Luo Ben. He is now an indirect source of Ming Dynasty's fiscal revenue. As long as he is fine, Ming Dynasty's external fiscal revenue can be guaranteed, but if the author has

If it's lost, the public doesn't seem to buy it...

While all the emperors were actively participating in the economic arms race, several Sanqu masters also appeared in the Yuan Dynasty, such as Guan Hanqing, Bai Pu, Zheng Guangzu and other famous Yuan opera celebrities. Not only that, in the history of the novels of the late Yuan Dynasty and the early Ming Dynasty,

Now everyone is rushing to the Ming Dynasty, but because of Kublai Khan's tragic defeat, they are frightened and can only move south to avoid disaster.

Among the literati who moved south, there was one who left his name in history. He was Shi Naian, the author of "Water Margin".

On the way, Shi Naian moved his family to the south in order to gain a foothold in the Ming Dynasty. What's more, Liu Ji was also elected together with him, and Liu Ji also called him a few days ago to ask him to go to the Ming Dynasty and not be an official.

It didn't matter, anyway, Zhu Yuanzhang had asked him to be an official countless times and he had always refused, so Liu Ji just asked him to move here.

At this time, in the Ming Palace, Zhu Zhanji looked serious, as if he wanted to say something very important.

Looking at Zhu Zhanji's appearance, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but asked: "Grandson, why do you make such an expression?"

Hearing my great-grandfather ask this question, he, the great-grandson, could not help but speak, so he replied: "It's not because of Robben. When he came back, he turned against him and refused to recognize him. What did he say about our rescue?"

A person's incompetence makes him suffer and he suffers. Who is this?"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and thought it was something. Just because this matter was nothing to do with him being angry, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, called Zhu Zhanji up and comforted him, meaning that he was a writer.

, I'm just a scholar, so I can't be angry with him. If a person escapes from danger, if the rescuer doesn't take the fastest measures to save the person, of course he will say so.

"Okay, okay, isn't it because of this incident? Where is Shen Lian?"

After a while, Shen Lian, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, came forward and paid homage: "Your Majesty!"

Zhu Yuanzhang took Zhu Zhanji's hand and walked over and said, "My grandson asked Robben to scold him. You go and deal with it."

"According to the order!" After saying that, Shen Lian turned around and led the imperial guards outside the palace gate to walk towards Luo Mansion in a swaggering manner.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was looking away, turned to look at Zhu Zhanji lovingly, patted his shoulder and smiled, and then sat back on the throne. Zhu Yuanzhang actually valued Zhu Di very much.

Yes, because the prince Zhu Biao has a generous and kind personality, the fourth son Zhu Di is the most like Zhu Yuanzhang, so Zhu Di can sit in Beijing and guard the capital of the Yuan Dynasty to defend the north. Although the whole family has met again now, he still puts aside Zhu Di.

The heart came, and after all Zhu Biao's existence, Zhu Di's imperial heart was put away.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Yi, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, hurried over and paid his respects: "Your Majesty, among the scholars who moved from the south of the Yuan Kingdom, there is a man who calls himself Shi Naian, and he is said to be a friend of Uncle Chengyi."

Liu Ji came out and asked, "Is the person's surname Shi?"

Lu Yi nodded and replied: "Yes, and the person who came named me wants to see you."

That's right. Liu Ji explained Shi Naian's purpose to Zhu Yuanzhang, and said that his book and Luo Ben's "Popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms" are basically novels of the same nature, and there are also small hits in various places. If Shi Naian is

An's novels are also promoted together with Robben's novels, and the country's profits can be increased.

Guo Zi, the Minister of Household Affairs, stepped forward and explained the current reserves of the Ming Dynasty's treasury. According to recent days, the Ming Dynasty's treasury expenditures have shown that the revenue exceeds expenditures, and the current treasury reserves are as high as more than 50 million taels.

Converting precious gold and silver jewelry such as silver, gold and silk into silver would cost almost 100 million, which can be said to be the richest person in the world.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded. In fact, he was already happy in his heart. If you put it this way, the economic strength of Ming Dynasty should be the strongest in the world. Then he said: "In addition to taxation and local capital flows, in terms of culture and economy,

How much money can be circulated?”

Guo Zi took out a booklet, which was a summary of his accounts during this period. After unfolding the booklet, it was estimated to be as long as an adult's arms stretched out.

"Back to Your Majesty, I have roughly estimated that the flow of folk cultural and economic activities will be transferred to the national treasury, and the total amount is about 1,378,000 taels of silver."

All the officials in the main hall nodded and looked at each other with the most proud attitude. They were invincible in this economic situation.

Liu Ji on the side saw that Zhu Yuanzhang had forgotten that there was someone outside the door, and quickly reminded him. After Zhu Yuanzhang came to his senses, he quickly summoned Shi Naian.

Immediately afterwards, Shi Naian himself and Lu Yi walked into the Daming Palace together, where the officials turned their heads motionless and watched Shi Naian slowly walk towards Zhu Yuanzhang's position.

Liu Ji stood next to Hu Weiyong, staring at this friend he hadn't seen for a long time and feeling a sense of long absence.

Shi Naian came to Zhu Yuanzhang and paid homage: "Shi Naian, a common man, pays homage to your majesty!"

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting on the throne, nodded slightly and replied: "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The ministers looked at Shi Naian's appearance, he looked pretty good, Liu Ji nodded, his old friend was still so simple.

Zhu Yuanzhang had been rejected before, but this time he came because he wanted to develop his books in Ming Dynasty, so he had to come to see him in person and let Zhu Yuanzhang give him a platform to promote it.

"Shi Gong, long time no see." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled.

"The common people haven't seen your majesty for a long time. I really miss you." Shi Naian also followed Zhu Yuanzhang's words and climbed up.

Then Zhu Yuanzhang's expression changed a little and he said, "Why did Lord Shi come here this time?"

Shi Naian straightened his clothes, took out the "Water Margin" from the package and handed it to Liu Ji, asking Liu Ji to present it to Zhu Yuanzhang, and said: "This is a novel compiled by grassroots, please read it!"

Of course he knew that the tragic story between the heroes of Liangshan and the corruption of the imperial court was almost the same as Zhu Yuanzhang's early experience. After all, he had also experienced some things that no one had ever done. After turning a few pages of "Water Margin" in Zhu Yuanzhang's hands,

He nodded. He had only read a few pages back then. He hadn't read it for such a long time and had forgotten about it. Reading it again, he had endless aftertaste.

So Zhu Yuanzhang once again agreed to Shi Naian to help him promote "Water Margin" and gave him the maximum profit standard, but Shi Naian made it clear that the income would be 46 points, he would be 4 points, and Zhu Yuanzhang would be 6 points. After such a discussion, we hit it off immediately. Culture
