"Your Majesty," Master Wei bowed even lower and spoke cautiously, "Most of the noble families are dandies, lacking any talent or ability. The illegal activities they commit are mostly minor offenses, and they are quite common."
Zhu Youxiao raised an eyebrow, realizing that Old Wei was right. A dandy, though not guilty of any major offenses, is constantly guilty of minor ones. It's easy to find a reason to punish him, but punishing him severely isn't enough.
It is easy to give them a warning, just like sending Zhang Zongbao, Fatty Zhao and others to Liaodong to suffer. But this is not Zhu Youxiao's ultimate goal.
Moreover, some nobles had already sensed that something was amiss, and some even sent their sons and nephews to new schools or martial arts schools.
If someone is ambitious, wants to learn, and wants to serve the court, Zhu Youxiao cannot stop them from making progress. Just like the children of the royal family, Zhu Youxiao hopes that they can learn skills and support themselves!
After much consideration, Zhu Youxiao decided to start with the collusion between officials and businessmen. This was both a warning and a weakening, and a warning to the nobles.
As for Zhu Chunchen—Zhu Youxiao raised his head and ordered: "Duke Chengguo Zhu Chunchen, Wei Ban must pay more attention."

"What information has been received recently from the Jiangning Weaving Factory?" Zhu Youxiao asked casually.
Officially, the information on Jiangnan weaving had to be reported to the East Factory, after all, it was an agency of the East Factory. However, Zhu Youxiao was also able to receive secret reports and was able to understand almost everything.
Uncle Wei thought for a moment and replied, "The students in Jiangnan are dissatisfied with the new policies, but they can only express their dissatisfaction verbally and lack the courage to openly oppose them. Most officials and businessmen are busy distancing themselves from the policies, but some are still stubbornly refusing to change their ways."
Zhu Youxiao nodded slightly and sneered, "When the deadline comes, don't blame me for being rude. Tell the Jiangning Weaving Master to investigate everything thoroughly. Don't wait until the time comes to act without knowing the exact number."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty." Master Wei bowed and said fiercely, "If anyone dares to disregard Your Majesty's decree, I will make them regret it too late."
