Great Ming: I’m Yang Xian, and I Really Can Govern Yangzhou!

Novels written in the early Ming Dynasty invariably include Shen Wansan, but if this man had lived until the founding of the Ming Dynasty, he would have been at least 70 years old. Zhu Yuanzhang probably never even met Shen Wansan in his lifetime.

Why does the whole text make it seem like it's only natural for someone to be a dog to the Zhu family?

Is it really that interesting to keep praising the Zhu family? Didn't Zhu Yuanzhang kill enough meritorious officials? Even if Yang Xian did his best, he'd just be another Hu Weiyong!

Chapter 20 reveals that the author has never farmed; he's a city dweller, not a rural one.

Without chemical fertilizers and pesticides, a yield of 600 jin per mu is considered good; where would a yield of 1500 jin per mu come from?
