Traveling back to the Hongwu era of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Qinghe only wanted to be a slacker idling his days away, casually adopting an amnesiac little beggar as his son. Zhu Qinghe taught him accounting, talked about economics, lectured on The Eastern Capital: A Dream of Splendor, and even shared the story of the king and the chessboard's compound interest. In the end, his neighbor, the old farmer Zhu Yuanzhang, squatted by the corner of the wall eavesdropping every day. When Zhu Qinghe said Ming paper banknotes would collapse, he found it made sense; when Zhu Qinghe said vassal princes were money-devouring beasts, he felt terror; when Zhu Qinghe said future emperors might have to borrow money from ministers, he burst into tears of fright on the spot. Later, he insisted on pressing the Seal of Prince of Wu into Zhu Qinghe's hands and taking the imperial grandson back.
