Great Ming: The Eight-Year-Old Lucky Imperial Grandson Leaves Old Zhu Dumbfounded

Shouldn't you call your own grandson by his name, Gao Chi?

Even if he transmigrated into the body of Zhu Gaochi, it wouldn't make a difference; Old Zhu still favored Zhu Biao's descendants. This had nothing to do with his grandson.

Wu Dalang was historically over 1.8 meters tall. Compared to the Japanese pirates of that time, he could probably be killed with a single punch.

Does the author have some misunderstanding about silver in the early Ming Dynasty? The idea of rewarding someone with a million taels of silver at the drop of a hat, or offering an annual salary of a million taels of silver, is misleading. Even considering the Industrial Revolution and increased commercial taxes in the Ming Dynasty, which likely generated hundreds of millions of taels of silver…

In terms of word choice, Zhu Yuanzhang usually used "zàn" (咱), and only used "zhī" (朕) when he was furious.

The protagonist gave a bit too much money to the inventors. It's not a question of whether it was right or wrong, but the cost of living in the Ming Dynasty was what it was. A million taels of silver would be worth tens of billions in modern times. A million taels a year—you need somewhere to spend it, otherwise you can only save it. In a few years, a silver shortage will lead to economic collapse. The protagonist can't ask for it back, or he'll be considered untrustworthy.

A million taels of silver at a time! This person clearly has no concept of silver! Let's not even talk about the price of silver in the Ming Dynasty; even using the current price of silver, one tael is fifty grams, and one gram is worth about seven yuan now. So, one tael is three hundred and fifty yuan, and one million taels is three hundred and fifty million!

I don't think it has anything to do with the book title. I just can't see any connection to Whale. Isn't there good stuff everywhere you go in Whale?
