A group of people walked on the streets of Dongjiang Town, watching the street scene and continuing to discuss life. Not bothering to care about Xu Jie's gloating mood, Mao Wenlong continued to say to Zhu Youjian: "Xu Jie is not very knowledgeable and is a sinister person, but this person

, is indeed loyal, careful in doing things, and smart and flexible, so every time I go on an expedition, I give him this big stall in my house." Then he looked at Xu Jie, who was becoming proud: "It's a good idea to employ people.

Long and short of tolerance, this is the principle of employing people." Then he pointed at the little fat man who had been following Zhu Youjian and never had a chance to come over to meet him, the British prince Zhang Zhiji: "You are just like my stupid brother.

, he is illiterate, but you ask him to govern a place, and the place will definitely be governed into a mess. That is not his fault, but your fault."

Looking at Zhu Youjian who was thinking thoughtfully: "But the little fat man, although he does not have the ability to govern a place, he is definitely a good hand in charging into battle and leading troops to fight. Is it because he is not a man with both civil and military skills?

Are you just going to abandon it?"

Zhang Zhiji felt that he had really met his soulmate this time, and he was so excited that he almost cried.

Because during the period when he followed the Eight Wise King Zhu Youjian to Xinyang, he suffered a lot. He had to fight by himself to pacify the rebel bandits in various places. As a result, there was a shortage of manpower for transporting materials, and Zhu Youjian dragged him over to take charge. He

Looking at the tadpole text, my head is as big as a bucket, and I just kneel down and surrender. How can I do this well? The result is often that I am scolded by this little guy until my body is completely bruised. It is really frustrating. Now my brother Mao Wenlong is in

Justify yourself.

Mao Wenlong continued: "For example, today, your brother is better than you in employing people. Wei Zhongxian is greedy, so he uses him to manage finances; the British Duke is loyal, so he uses him to lead the army; Huang Xu is old-fashioned, so he makes him the chief assistant, so that

If there is no big fluctuation in the court situation, Master Sun knows the troops and uses them to guard the border; Yang Sichang knows how to use thunderbolts, so he puts him in the northwest. In this way, each uses his own strengths, so that the Ming Dynasty can deal with it stably."

Zhu Youjian simply sneered at what others said, but when it came out of Mao Wenlong's mouth, he was deeply moved.

After thinking for a while, he stood on the street and said apologetically to the little fat man and his brothers: "It's all Xiao Wang who doesn't know how to employ people. I have really wronged you brothers. I won't do such stupid things in the future."

, Xiao Wang will never do it again."

This group of upstart disciples were completely moved by the young prince's apology for being criticized behind his back for his willfulness, and they also felt that life would be much easier in the future.

Everyone was walking on the streets of Dongjiang Town while talking. Because Mao Wenlong deliberately wanted Zhu Youjian, the Eight Wise King, to see the governance achievements of his place, he did not implement the ban, so people in Dongjiang Town were still coming and going, and everyone got used to it.

It was not surprising that Mao Wenlong was walking around on the street. When everyone saw this group of people, they just bowed their hands to Mao Wenlong and others, and then continued to go about their own business without delay.

Seeing how bustling this place was in the cold weather, Zhu Youjian was simply stunned and couldn't help but praise: "I never expected that in this tiny place, on the front line of the war, there would be such a bustling place.

The scene, Mao Shuai really deserves to be a master of construction."

The title Mao Wenlong has spread throughout the mainland. The city of Tianjin has sprung up from scratch. It is unknown how many firsts in the history of the Ming Dynasty it has created, how much money buried in the ground has been unearthed, and how much money has been raised.

How many people were displaced and how much profit was made. And all these efforts were due to Mao Wenlong's plan. Even the old and famous people in the Ministry of Industry had to marvel at it and admire it.

Facing Zhu Youjian's comments on the prosperity of this war-torn and barbaric land in the mainland, Mao Wenlong smiled faintly: "We still do things like this, we have to do it step by step, and we can't do it all at once. For example, my current Dongjiang Town,

It is also the seat of Dongjiang Prefecture. It now has a population of no less than 300,000, which is completely comparable to our Xi'an, Taiyuan Prefecture, Suzhou and Hangzhou in the Ming Dynasty. But the reason why it has developed to this point is because I have a Dongjiang Port, and the reason why I have it

Dongjiang Port is because I originally established my army command center here.

Well, let’s put this thing the other way around. When I was stationed here, I needed food supplies, and then I needed a small wharf. Then it evolved from a small fishing port wharf to a port, and this port needed to load and unload cargo.

, so small market towns naturally appeared. When market towns appeared, markets naturally appeared. People from the surrounding areas came here to buy the items they needed and sell their excess items. In this way, merchants and shops appeared.

, and businessmen needed to communicate, so wine shops and teahouses naturally appeared. Coupled with the government's deliberate planning and guidance, it became bigger step by step."

"What Mao Shuai taught me is that sometimes I am too impatient and worry too much about doing things."

For the Eight Wise Kings to be able to sincerely review themselves, this surprised all those who accompanied him, but they were even more pleased.

However, Mao Wenlong was not surprised at the boy's courage to admit his mistakes. Not to mention that he was still a prince now, but that in later generations he sat in the Dragon Court and became an emperor who kept his word, but he also sinned against himself four times. At this point

Yes, he was a good emperor.

"If a common man lives his life badly, he will lose his family at most, and the impact will only be on himself or his surrounding family members. But if a county magistrate does something wrong, it will affect the livelihood of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people.

. By analogy, if the superiors take action, then the entire country will be doomed because of one person's wrong decision. Throughout the entire history of China, for thousands of years, there are many such examples. Therefore, the superiors,

It is better not to do anything than to do things blindly. When it comes to running a country, the only thing I am afraid of is the word "fear of manipulation." Mao Wenlong followed suit.

Zhu Youjian took a step back and bowed deeply to Mao Wenlong, almost as if he was bowing to the ground.

Mao Wenlong quickly held up his hands and said, "How dare I accept such a great gift from the prince? It is a death penalty." He said this, but his expression was as if he was a teacher.

As a result, the Eight Wise King Zhu Youjian solemnly said: "It is not the little king who is giving you a gift, but the little king who is giving you a gift on behalf of my brother, the emperor. He has chosen a good master for the prince. Under the guidance of Mao Shuai, the prince will be the best in the future."

, he will definitely become a wise king."

Mao Wenlong laughed, not because of the compliment, but from Zhu Youjian's words just now, Mao Wenlong knew that this guy really had no ambition, at least when his brother was in power, he had no ambition.
