(Revised in the previous chapter.)

On the second day, Zhu Biao told Lao Zhu about his thoughts and said that he wanted to set up several yards in the East Palace.

The Zhanshifu and Zuochunfang, the Ministry of Economic Affairs, cannot fully adapt to their own training for the needs of reform.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and processed the memorials, threw a memorial and said to Zhu Biao: "Biaoer, come and help us read it."

Seeing that Old Zhu was in a good mood, Zhu Biao said seriously: "Father, I want to show this to my father."

"What is this Ming Science and Technology Academy? What is this Shenji Hall... Why can't we understand what you wrote?" Zhu Yuanzhang was puzzled as he looked at these strange names.

Zhu Biao took the paper and said: "The Ming Academy of Sciences specializes in researching...for example, let the father's carriage run faster, or even more magical. Doing things with water and steam can reduce manpower.

Call all kinds of craftsmen from the Ming Dynasty to study powerful things, and then we can train industrial teachers to give lectures in various places.

Astronomy, geography, agriculture-related drugs... You can also find minerals, salt, tea and silk to develop according to local conditions. And what Wang Zhen left behind is precious information that is auxiliary."

"Then what is this Shenjitang?"

Zhu Biao smiled mysteriously and said, "During the Poyang Lake War, we used a lot of muskets. Erchen wanted to develop more powerful firearms, study combat strategies, and help the Ming Dynasty better protect its territory and fight the northern expedition."

I almost told me about my idea of ​​training the army, but after completing the previous ones, the latter ones will be natural.

Zhu Yuanzhang had never heard of these novel ideas.

This kind of thing needs to be discussed with civil officials. He thought for a moment and then let Li Shanchang and Liu Bowen enter the palace to discuss matters.

...

President Li Shanzhang stood aside and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "Your Majesty, I think the Northern Expedition Army has not returned yet.

The household registration and land registration of the previous dynasty have very few. Some of them are retained, due to population death and migration, land desolation and property rights transfer, the current situation does not match the registered household registration, and this problem should be solved first."

Li Shanchang was proud of his heart. It was the real situation that he said this. Since Liu Bowen became the young master of the prince, what the prince said today must be secretly commanded by Liu Bowen, an old man.

Zhu Yuanzhang lowered his head and thought, but did not say what he meant for a moment.

Zhu Biao said considerately: "The father worked hard in trivial matters these days, and his son was not talented. There is a way to solve the problems that Prime Minister Li was worried about."

As long as I solve the problem of managing household registration and land by myself, what obstacles will be left to recruit craftsmen to study grain output, firearm research, and reorganization of the army.

When Lao Zhu heard that his son cared about him so much, he really didn't love this guy. He knew that he had worked hard, so he nodded and said:

"Biao'er, what's the way to tell us."

"Returning to the father, we can compile yellow books for household registration and fish scale books for land, so that we can effectively manage household registration and master labor."

Zhu Yuanzhang was worried about this for a long time and did not think of a good idea. When he heard Zhu Biao say about the yellow book and the fish scale book, he was a little hesitant.

He believes that many things and policies must be repeatedly deduced and confirmed before they can be implemented nationwide.

Even if my son said it.

As the young master of the prince, Liu Bowen naturally could not stand by and stepped forward and said respectfully to Lao Zhu: "Your Majesty, I think the method the prince said can be tried."

Li Shanchang glanced at Liu Bowen and said in his heart: Whether this matter will be successful or not depends on His Majesty. After all, the prince has little experience, so how could he use his method? Liu Bowen, Liu Bowen, he is still capable of being a prince's young master.

For a time, Hu Weiyong and Li Shanchang expressed doubts, while Liu Bowen, Song Lian and Lu Chang believed that the method Zhu Biao said could be tried.

Lao Zhu also understood what Li Shanchang said. He had been thinking about this issue since his founding of the country, and had no idea. He just thought that Zhu Biao wanted to share his worries.

Then he signaled Zhu Biao to continue.

"Father, you can ask all prefectures and counties across the country to compile yellow books, with 110 households as a 110 households in a 1-limit, and compile them into a book according to the order of how many grains are Ding grains, and the name, origin, Dingkou, age, and land industry are indicated in the book.

...The yellow book is in duplicate... The book submitted by the Secretary for Administration to the Ministry of Revenue must be covered with yellow paper."

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned when he heard this, even Liu Bowen and Song Lian did not come back to their senses.

Now, Li Shanchang also became interested in listening. This method is indeed good, and it solved the problem that they have been thinking about these days.

If this yellow book method was definitely not Liu Bowen's idea, it seems that the crown prince is not only gentle and kind, but is indeed a little skillful.

"Your Majesty, what the Crown Prince said is indeed a good method, but I think if this yellow book is really customized and the number is huge, how should it be stored."

Li Shanchang glared at Hu Weiyong, thinking that he was too clever and said this.

Hu Weiyong's reminder, Zhu Yuanzhang came back to his senses and asked, "Biao'er, what do you think."

"When I go back to my father, I believe that several special archives can be built on several small islands in the center of Houhu Lake in Nanjing to store yellow books and fish scale books."

"The imperial city is not good? Why choose Houhu?" Zhu Yuanzhang thought.

"The back lake is surrounded by water, which can avoid fires. Moreover, these small islands in the middle of the lake have little contact with the outside world, so the storage of yellow books and fish scale books is not easily disturbed by the outside world. It is a good place to collect important documents."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and grasped the possession of the land. With the Yellow Book, he could collect labor and pay taxes from the people in the Yellow Book List.

"To prevent changes caused by changes in population and land rights, we can investigate household registration every ten years and re-replace the yellow book, which is called "Da Zao."

Lao Zhu felt that he had thought about something similar to this kind, but he was not as thoughtful as his son.

It seems that these teachers have chosen the right choice.

On the palace road, Li Shanchang glanced around and said to Hu Weiyong: "The prince is the crown prince in the future of the Ming Dynasty. The question you raised today is really stupid."

"Prime Minister, I can't stand the pride of Liu Bowen. Although he is Zhenyi Bo, he has become the young master of the prince. It's really hard for me to swallow this breath."

Hu Weiyong shook his sleeves.

"Weiyong, you and I are fellow villagers. We need to make a long-term plan to deal with Liu Bowen. The Empress trusts him very much and is the young master of the prince. Don't be confused. Just your Majesty admires you."

"Prime Minister, what do you think of the fish scale picture album that the crown prince just mentioned?"

The two walked away together and disappeared at the end of the palace.

...

...

"This fish scale picture album is directly related to the yellow book system just now. It is important to grasp the land possession status. To measure the land across the country, the area where the 10,000 stone of grain can be a district, and all the cultivated land in this district can be compiled into one book.

The square and circular shapes of each field in the fish scale book are numbered, and the area is specified, and the name of the land owner is also indicated. The nature and grade of the land are also indicated. I believe it is feasible."

Liu Bowen said, writing Zhu Biao’s method just now on paper and preparing to study it.

"I also believe that this yellow book is mainly based on the household registration of our Ming Dynasty, and this fish scale picture album uses land as the main theme. The two books confirm each other and complement each other. It is wonderful to include all the population and land."

Song Lian shook his head and said, very proud that this was done by his own students, and he studied it with Lu Chang there.

Zhu Yuanzhang put down the memorial and looked at Liu Bowen and the others, and saw them standing there a little surprised.

Fortunately, Liu Bowen knows more and is not too surprised. However, is this really as powerful as the prince said?
