"If my uncle believes me, I will ask you to hand over all the fields under your name to the court tomorrow morning to express your attitude."

"Of course, without the income from the fields, I will not let my uncle suffer. At the Qunying Chamber of Commerce, my uncle can arrange for someone to do it with me."

"Don't underestimate the profits of the Chamber of Commerce. It's much more than just a few thousand acres of fertile land."

"Especially in the near future, once the sea ban comes into effect, the trade profits will be beyond my uncle's imagination."

Zhu Ying took the opportunity to say.

There are a lot of fertile fields under Lan Yu's command. Zhu Ying did this because he wanted Lan Yu to take the lead. If anyone makes a mistake in the future, he will hand over the fields under his name.

The annexation of land is a major issue faced by all dynasties.

In the current situation of the Ming Dynasty, it is completely impossible to take action against the landed class without sufficient protection, but this does not prevent the court from actually granting fiefs and fertile farmland from now on.

Gradually change the focus to financial rewards.

Zhu Ying's Qunying Chamber of Commerce, with the help of the government, is almost no different from a monopoly.

Relying on the profits brought by the monopoly, Zhu Ying's plan was to purchase land from the landlord class on a large scale.

These fields are under the name of the Chamber of Commerce, which is almost the same as being controlled by the government.

In this way, at least the problem of land annexation can be greatly improved.

It should be noted that the current Ming Dynasty has only been in existence for 25 years, and there are already big signs of land annexation.

Zhu Yuanzhang massacred heroes, and each of the four major Hongwu cases was very widely implicated.

The purpose is also to annex land.

These heroes who followed and conquered the world, because of the initial reward, had too much land in their hands.

It is said that when one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

Behind these heroes, there are a large number of landowners and gentry who have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.

If Zhu Yuanzhang had not taken action, within a hundred years, the land annexation in the Ming Dynasty would have been as serious as that in the Yuan Dynasty.

This is why the founding emperors have always had the practice of killing meritorious officials.

It's really because they got too much land and the clans behind them.

Coupled with his own power, all the money is like a snowball, expanding at a speed beyond imagination.

Whenever successive emperors made inspections, they would feel the horror and would not be able to sleep well at night.

As the founding emperor who conquered the world with his own hands, who wouldn't want his dynasty to last forever?

At this rate of development, I am afraid it will collapse within a hundred years.

Then there is no other way but to be ruthless.

At this point, Lan Yu didn't hesitate much.

We have already boarded His Highness Changsun's boat, so of course His Highness will do whatever he says.

Of course Lan Yu knew about the Qunying Chamber of Commerce.

Being able to join the Qunying Chamber of Commerce is equivalent to getting closer to His Highness Changsun, which is something Lan Yu can only dream of.

"After I return today, I will sort out all the land deeds in my name and hand them over to Your Majesty tomorrow morning."

Lan Yu replied.

When he got here, Zhu Yingcai nodded with satisfaction.

What happened this time can be described as killing three birds with one stone.

Before, I was thinking about how to persuade Lan Yu to go to the Public Security Department, but now I have finally settled it.

With Lan Yu taking the lead, there won't be that much resistance when military nobles are transferred to the Public Security Department.

The departure of the nobles in the military will also allow Zhu Ying to gain deeper control over military power.

The Department of Public Security will also serve as Zhu Ying's weapon in controlling the local area.

The days before when imperial power did not go to the countryside are gone forever.

Morning the next day, outside Fengtian Gate.

I saw Lan Yu shirtless and carrying a thorn stick on his back.

Holding the Ming Dynasty Law in his left hand and a thick stack of land deeds in his right hand, he knelt outside Fengtian Gate.

All civil and military officials immediately started talking about it.

Especially the military attachés in the Governor's Mansion were all confused as they didn't know what Duke Liang had done.

This is their immediate boss.

Some people who knew the ins and outs also looked panicked.
