As the heir to the Ming Dynasty and the future emperor, Zhu Yunwen was accomplished in both civil administration and military affairs. Through a series of reforms, he brought prosperity to the people of the land, and even Yunnan, a region formerly known as a "sinful prefecture," saw rapid improvement.
That is what makes him great.
In just ten to fifteen days in Yunnan, the people of Yunnan gained hope and motivation.
The entire province of Yunnan has been revitalized, and the people are no longer living a life of mere survival; they have all devoted themselves to the causes they have chosen.
People who were already doing well began to plan to start businesses, such as making flower cakes or planting large quantities of tea trees and medicinal herbs.
Those with poorer circumstances would go into the mountains to find medicinal herbs to sell, first solving their basic needs for food and clothing, and then saving some money to pursue other ventures.
In short, after Zhu Yunwen arrived in Yunnan, a series of actions directly revitalized the province's economy.
Mu Chun of the Mu family was naturally grateful to Zhu Yunwen, and he also knew that if Zhu Yunwen became emperor, the Ming Dynasty would reach an unprecedented level of prosperity.
This further strengthened Mu Chun of the Mu Prince's Mansion's resolve to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty and Zhu Yunwen.
As for Zhu Yunwen, after spending about ten days in Yunnan and helping the province plan its path to prosperity, he finally felt relieved.
However, there was still no movement from the north, which made Zhu Yunwen feel puzzled and confused.
Wasn't it agreed that Goryeo, Dongdao, and Zhu Yunwen would unite to fight against the Ming Dynasty?
What? Zhu Yunwen has already traveled all the way to the south, and they still haven't made a move? Could it be that they're still worried?
Aren't these people being a bit too cautious?
If they still don't dare to make a move even after I've come this far, wouldn't they be even less likely to make a move if I go back a little bit?
Zhu Yunwen didn't want them to miss this opportunity, after all, it was also his chance to deal with them.
Therefore, Zhu Yunwen decided to continue to stay in Yunnan.
In any case, the longer he stays in Yunnan during this period, the more beneficial it will be for this place.
After Zhu Yunwen's order was sent back to the court, the court allocated funds to build roads in Yunnan. The story of Zhu Yunwen traveling around Yunnan and being attracted by its beautiful scenery spread throughout the country.
Many literary figures and wealthy people who enjoy traveling and sightseeing wanted to come and see this place after hearing the news.
I wanted to see what kind of place it was, what kind of scenery it had, that could make the legendary Ming Dynasty figure Zhu Yunwen linger there so reluctant to leave.
What are the unique features of this place that attracted Zhu Yunwen to personally select it as a tribute tea for the imperial court? And is Pu'er tea really delicious?
In short, this series of events has attracted people from all over the country, making them yearn for Yunnan.
With the roads so good now, it only takes a few days for people to travel to Yunnan by bicycle, tricycle, or horse.
As a result, a large number of tourists came to Yunnan from all over the Ming Dynasty.
It truly brought a surge in tourism spending to Yunnan.
A few days later, many tourists arrived in Yunnan. Once they arrived, they needed money for food, drink, accommodation, and transportation.
The people of Yunnan immediately followed the orders of the Mu Prince's Mansion and started doing business, providing accommodation, food, and even acting as tour guides to take these tourists from other places to play.
In short, this entire series of economic consumption is reflected in the tourism industry. Tourists from other places who come to Yunnan are also attracted by the region's beautiful scenery.
Summer is almost over and autumn is just around the corner. The scenery of Yunnan is very attractive, with various trees, mountains, and lakes all being very appealing.
Especially famous places like Erhai Lake are so captivating that people linger there, and some literati have left behind poems and lyrics about them.
In just a few days, the beautiful scenery of Yunnan has become a household name.
Many merchants even came to this place to purchase goods, which at one point led to a shortage of medicinal herbs and other products in Yunnan.
The people were extremely anxious, and they all began to try every means to grow tea, make various flower cakes, ham, collect various medicinal herbs, and make Yunnan Baiyao, etc.
In the Mu Prince's residence, Zhu Yunwen looked down at Mu Chun.
Mu Chun said excitedly:
"Your Highness, this is a complete transformation! Yunnan used to be known as a land of exile. No outsiders ever came here."
With so many tourists visiting the country, many previously impoverished people have discovered business opportunities and made money.
In just a few days, the lives of many people have undergone tremendous changes. Moreover, people have begun to cultivate tea and medicinal herbs on a large scale.
I believe that before long, our Yunnan region will be able to catch up with the Ming Dynasty and become no weaker than any of its places.
Zhu Yunwen smiled with satisfaction and said:
"From now on, there will be no place in our Great Ming Dynasty where criminals can be exiled, because every place is a good place and the people in every place can live a good life."
Mu Chun knelt on the ground: "Great Ming Dynasty is mighty! Grandson is mighty!"
Zhu Yunwen took a deep breath, but just then, a general in armor rushed in and knelt down on the ground.
