Shen Wansan was a famous wealthy businessman in Ming Dynasty. It is said that his assets can exceed half of the treasury of the Ming Dynasty. For a wealthy businessman with so many assets, how scared Zhu Yuanzhang should be. Zhu Yuanzhang once tempted Shen Wansan to get rid of him: Shen Wansan had treated him and Zhu Yuanzhang was there. At that time, there was a pig's trotters dish. Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to let Shen Wansan die through this dish, so he was asked to introduce it. How dare Shen Wansan contradict Zhu Yuanzhang's surname? So he said it was "three thousand hooves", and then Zhu Yuanzhang asked if such a big trotter should be cut with a knife. Shen Wansan also said that when the meat is cooked, the chopsticks will come down when they touch the meat. This is just an escape.
There are two main reasons why Zhu Yuanzhang hates Shen Wansan so much. The first one is because of Zhang Shicheng. Before Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor, Shen Wansan took refuge in Zhang Shicheng and naturally became Zhu Yuanzhang's enemy. They help each other. When Zhu Yuanzhang knew about it, he would also have a lot of resentment against Shen Wansan. Later, Zhu Yuanzhang destroyed Zhang Shicheng and Shen Wansan took refuge in Zhu Yuanzhang.
The second point is that he has committed a political taboo. Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to build Nanjing City when he was in power. To show sincerity, Shen Wansan offered to contribute. Half of Nanjing was built with Shen Wansan's money, which made Zhu Yuanzhang very alert. Then Shen Wansan didn't know what was going on, and offered to reward and pay the soldiers. Zhu Yuanzhang asked angrily, if he has millions of soldiers, can he all be paid? Shen Wansan answered yes. This completely angered Zhu Yuanzhang, and this intrusion made Zhu Yuanzhang completely erupt.
Another possibility is that Zhu Yuanzhang had a bad living environment since he was a child, and he hated the rich man Shen Wansan, and Shen Wansan made no secret of it, which would naturally lead to fatal disaster. I think Shen Wansan is an idiot in politics, although his business is good. what do you think?
