Young Master Xu Xiu: The Wisdom of a Brain That’s Missing Something

Young Master means the son of a duke.

Xu Xiu is a peerless genius.

Whether it's matters of state or a dispute between neighbors, everything becomes simple in the presence of Young Master Xu.

One year, Xu Xiu was having a meal with his aunt, Empress Xu, when he overheard his uncle Zhu Di and several cousins discussing the court's finances.

Xu Xiu chuckled. No money?

Then borrow some.

With Zhu Di's approval, Xu Xiu issued government bonds, recruited troops, pacified Jiaozhi, and conquered Annam.

He developed plantations in the south, sailed to the islands to plunder Japanese captives, and began the infamous Eastern Triangle Trade.

He also built factories and schools, developed ironclad warships, and pointed his armies straight at the Portuguese.

Even Yu Qian, the cleverest man in the world at the time, had to admit that everything Xu Xiu did showed a unique kind of brilliance, born from a brain that's missing a few pieces!
