Daming: I, Zhu Di, threatened to seize the heir apparent at the beginning!

Chapter 75 Fatty Jiang: Hey...it's a pity, Zhu Silang is not Yan Wang Zhu Di
'what! '

'Indifferent? '

'I'm too eager, and the offer is too good, do you want to take advantage of this opportunity? '

'Ask for more favors? '

'Well, Zhu Silang, you are too greedy!This officer has to beat you! '

Zhu Di's expression was calm, without any surprise.

Not to mention Jiang Jinzhong's imagination, Natou bowed and shouted, "The benefactor is above, please accept Zhu Silang's bow."

This disappointed Jiang Jinzhong.

very angry!
Decided to give it a knock.

Immediately, he stretched out his chubby radish finger and pointed at the chessboard next to him, "Do you know why you lost just now?"

'What is Fatty Jiang doing? '

Zhu Di was a little taken aback, for a while, he couldn't keep up with Fatty's brain circuit.

Very puzzled, just now he was still invited to be the master of the staff.

How to blink an eye, just talk about the chess game.

He held his temper patiently, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "My lord, please enlighten me."

"You go first, that's right. My father said when he taught me how to play chess, the real master of the chessboard is the one who goes first."

Jiang Jinzhong shook his head and said earnestly: "My father said that chess is the interpretation of the art of war."

"When marching and fighting, you must first release the scouts, test the enemy, induce the enemy to react, and then look for the enemy's flaws..."

"A master player is often used to playing chess first."

……

"However, you have to understand that the truth is often only grasped by a few people, and there is always a gap between the truth and practice."

"It's like playing chess. For a real master, it is of course the right choice to make the pawn first. They can play wonderfully."

"But you can't do it. You imitated and forcibly imitated. The result is obvious at a glance. You must lose!"

"When you haven't reached that level, you should be down-to-earth, don't be too ambitious, and don't try to forcefully ask for things that are beyond the scope of your ability."

As he said that, Jiang Jinzhong winked and pointed out: "You are a smart person, you should be able to understand what I say, right?"

"It's too good to make too many handoffs? So that Fatty Jiang feels so good about himself?"

Zhu Di almost burst out laughing, but tried his best to hold back the laugh.

At the same time, I also understood, what did Fatty Jiang use the chess game to say?
Don't be too ambitious.

Don't ask for more than you can afford.

It was clearly beating and implying him: Zhu Silang, you are not a real master and capable person, the conditions I have given you are already very generous, people must be self-aware, and don't ask for things beyond the scope of ability!

Suppressing a smile, he cupped his hands in thanks and said, "Master Jiang's kind words have shocked the grassroots, like enlightenment."

"Just then, when I first heard about Mr. Jiang's invitation, the grassroots were so honored that they were at a loss for a while, and hoped that Mr. Jiang would forgive me."

"But Caomin really doesn't want to be an official. He just wants to accompany his wife, plant a few acres of land, raise some chickens and ducks, and spend time in the countryside..."

……

When Jiang Jinzhong listened to the first half, the smile on his face became wider and wider, like a flower slowly blooming.

But when Zhu Di changed the subject.

The smile on the face is like a flower withering...

The whole process, just in a short moment, is like a flash in the pan.

"Are you looking down on me?" Jiang Jinzhong asked with a dark face.

"No, no, no." Zhu Di shook his head, not accepting the 50 taels of silver, and asked him to take it back to continue running the school.

He has greatly improved his attitude towards this funny-looking fat man.

One beauty covers one hundred ugliness.

With this move, other shortcomings can be covered up.

All in all, Fatty Jiang is already a good official.

After pondering for a while, seeing Jiang Jinzhong's face getting more and more ugly, he said: "Master Jiang invited me, it should be for promotion of official career?"

"I can't be the master of the staff at any time, but I would like to offer some suggestions."

"I don't know, is Mr. Jiang willing to listen?"

'snort!It's up to you, Zhu Silang, what good suggestions you can give! '

Jiang Jinzhong was in a bad mood, snorted secretly, and said in a firm tone: "But it's okay to say!"

Zhu Di almost couldn't help laughing.

This fat man is very interesting.

So he said: "In fact, promotion in the officialdom is the easiest."

"An official should do whatever the emperor likes."

"The old ancestors have taught it, and what is good at the top must be done at the bottom."

"Nowadays, His Majesty likes to be an upright official, so Mr. Jiang will be an upright official."

"Your Majesty likes frugality today, and Mr. Jiang is frugal."

"His Majesty loves the people today, and hopes that officials will be real parents and officials, caring for the people just like parents love their children."

"Master Jiang will only be a parent once."

……

"Lord Jiang, remember, if you want to do what I said, you must do it for real. Even if you don't agree with it in your heart, you must not cheat at all in your actions."

"If you put on a show, put on a formality, it's okay to fool the emperor once or twice, but if you do too much, you will definitely be exposed, and you will be backlashed."

After talking, Zhu Di stopped talking and picked up the teacup next to him to drink tea.

Fatty Jiang is an official fan.

Except wanting to be an official.

Doesn't seem greedy either.

It's not bad, let me point it out by the way.

If you want to be a high-ranking official, you must really do what he said.

Even if you don't agree with it in your heart, it's okay.

Anyway, the people really benefited.

Although the Confucian Neo-Confucianism sect has a lot of dross.

But the sentence Mingyi said at the beginning is actually very correct: if you want to make the world better, you must keep the principles of heaven and eliminate human desires!

Of course, this is simply not possible.

Human desire can never be extinguished!
On the contrary, human desires, along with the continuous development of productivity, will continue to indulge and expand.

Therefore, it doesn't matter what Fatty Jiang thinks in his head.

The motivation to do things, whether it is to become a high-ranking official or to satisfy vanity, is not important at all.

As long as you work hard, you will succeed!
Governing the elite is like governing the Yellow River, blocking it is worse than dredging it.

Human desires cannot be blocked or eliminated, so use human desires to guide them.

Those who love money, let them do things that make money.

Those who love power, let him exchange credit for power.

……

Those who are too greedy, want everything, threaten the imperial power, harm the country, and harm the interests of most people, then raise the knife of justice and chop off their heads.

Zhu Di drank his tea, and for a while, his thoughts diverged.

Jiang Jinzhong's thinking is also diverging.

Hearing Zhu Di's words, Jiang Jinzhong couldn't help but think of Zhu Yuanzhang's comments on him: Although this county magistrate is concerned about formalities, he is willing to step on the soil and lean over to pull weeds himself. Even if he is engaged in formalities, he surpasses many officials in Ming Dynasty.

Obviously, the emperor saw that he didn't mean it at all, and was willing to do these things.

But I appreciate it very much, and I hope that the officials of Ming Dynasty will do it no matter whether they want it or not.

……

Thinking about it, the two small eyes on the upper two-thirds of Dabing's face suddenly lit up, and he began to think crazily: "This is His Majesty's favor on me, this is His Majesty's hint to me, I hope I will continue to work hard!" '

'As Zhu Silang said, don't care what you think, as long as you act hard, you will promote me! '

Haha ...

Fatty Jiang suddenly laughed nervously, struggled to get up, stood in Datong shop, and bowed to Zhu Di: "Mr. Zhu, please accept my bow!"

Zhu Silang is really a lucky general!
If it wasn't for Zhu Silang's call.

He would ignore that His Majesty's words of derogation and praise are still hints of the official's promise!

Zhu Di looked at this nervous fat man in astonishment.

If he knew the content of Fatty Jiang's brain supplement, he would definitely tell Fatty Jiang directly: "I'm thinking too much, the old man has so many things to do, how can I give you a small county magistrate? The old man is not the Bodhi Patriarch, and you are not the monkey grandson."

"Master Jiang doesn't have to be like this." Zhu Di smiled, and it seemed that Fatty Jiang was going to do what he said.

People in Jiangning County will most likely be able to live a good life for a few days.

Fatty Jiang, perhaps, can also go to a higher position. As for how high, it depends on the level of effort and persistence.

……

Although Zhu Di declined the invitation.

But Jiang Jinzhong's attitude changed from before.

Becoming extremely cordial, Mr. Zhu yelled very diligently.

Near noon.

Fatty Jiang is going back to the city.

When getting on the sedan chair, he grabbed Zhu Di with greasy hands, "Mr. Zhu, Zhou Lang will subcontract Tuqiao Village in the future. If you have any difficulties, just tell him."

Zhou Lang, who was standing next to him, was stunned.

After they went out, what happened?
At the county government, he begged to continue subcontracting Tuqiao Village, but Jiang Jinzhong did not agree.

After chatting with Mr. Zhu, he even took the initiative to mention this matter?

Zhu Di smiled and nodded, trying to pull his hand out.

This guy is fat, oily and sweaty, and his hands are greasy. It's really uncomfortable.

But Fatty Jiang persisted, and said, "Next spring, no matter how well the children learn, Mr. Zhu must take them to take the children's exam."

"It's necessary to make children adapt to the imperial examinations."

"When the time comes, I will arrange it!"

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang." This time, Zhu Di smiled sincerely, and his thanks came from the heart.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Fatty Jiang left.

Inside the sedan.

Hey!
Fatty Jiang lifted up the small curtain, looked back, looked at Zhu Di, sighed, and said regretfully: "Zhu Silang is a lucky general, talented and learned, and he gave me great advice. It's a pity that it's not Yan Wang Zhu Di."

Hey……

……

Zhou Lang didn't follow back to the city because he had to go to the river embankment to supervise.

Looking at the sedan chair going away, he asked curiously: "Mr. Zhu, you played chess before, and you gave way to County Magistrate Jiang, right?"

Zhu Di smiled and asked as he walked towards the river embankment section, "How did you find out?"

"I just don't believe that Mr. Zhu will lose." Zhou Lang laughed.

With the division of labor and cooperation, one tael of silver and one fish, and one or two pointers, Zhou Lang became the head of the soap team in one fell swoop...

Adding up the piles, in Zhou Lang's heart, Zhu Di's image was already very tall.

Similar to the omnipotent great counselor Zhuge Kongming in the storytellers.

Zhu Di smiled and nodded.

Zhou Lang hurriedly asked: "Then why do we have to kill the county magistrate Jiang in the first place?"

"Of course it's to make County Magistrate Jiang happier. I'm happy to get something easily, but I won't be too happy." Zhu Di said, looking at Zhou Lang: "If you do this, you have to be careful, and don't shoot yourself in the foot."

"I don't learn, I don't learn." Zhou Lang sneered: "I can't learn such methods."

……

Since Jiang Jinzhong came to see Zhu Di in person, the news spread.

On the embankment, it is even more harmonious.

The time is fast approaching the end of the month.

……

Royal Palace.

Royal study.

"Your Majesty, Commander Mao has arrived."

"Let him in."

With his head down, Mao Xiang hurried in, after saluting.

Zhu Yuanzhang just put down his pen, looked up, looked at Mao Xiang who was kneeling in front of him, and asked, "Is the corvee over today?"

"Go back to the emperor, the corvee service in Jiangning County is indeed ending today."

"Have you sent someone to interrogate? Tell the Jin Yiwei next to Zhu Silang to carefully recall every word and every action Zhu Silang said before and after the Qingpi Hunzi incident!"

He wants a more comprehensive observation report.

You must be sure, did that bastard, the fourth child, think of a way to win over green-skinned bastards with petty profits to deter and suppress the villagers!

This is important!

'What does the emperor want to know? '

Mao Xiang was very puzzled. The emperor had asked many times about the comprehensive observation report during this period.

Not daring to delve into it, he hurriedly replied: "My lord, I have already sent someone to report to Xiaoqi in the Jiangning stronghold. Zhu Silang and the others have earned a lot of money this time. Before going home, they will definitely go to the county to buy some things and bring them to their families."

"The people in Jinyiwei's stronghold in Jiangning County will find a way to contact the warriors around Zhu Silang."

Ah!
Zhu Yuanzhang hummed lightly and reminded: "Remember, be careful not to let him discover any clues. This person must stay by his side for a long time."

The corners of Mao Xiang's lips twitched, and he couldn't help being wronged for Zhu Di, "Yes! I will personally go to Jiangning County to command."

"You go in person, we are more at ease." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded in satisfaction.

After finishing the business, he couldn't help asking curiously: "Do you know how much money they earn?"

　Ask for monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, investment, follow-up.
