There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

The two children Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi sat on the two seats at the bottom of the pottery merchant, writing strokes on the bamboo slips, while behind them, Guo Jia was pacing back and forth behind the two children, holding on to the ruler. Take a look at the arguments in their hands from time to time, and occasionally point out some shortcomings or deficiencies.

The pottery merchant sat on the main seat, reviewing the important policies of Jinling City, and from time to time he spoke to the two children to add some key points of the argument.

The two future elites are now co-educated and supervised by potters and Guo Jia.

Regarding this method, Guo Jia is actually very suffocated.

It's true that the two children are good seedlings, and Guo Jia can tell after a few times of teaching.

The problem is, these two good seedlings are nominally the students of the pottery merchant, but he wants to let himself teach. Isn't this clearly bullying?

He earned the fame himself, but let Guo do the hard work!

It's really a flower.

It's a pity that people have to bow their heads under the eaves. It's not the first time Guo Jia has been held back by a potter. He knows in his heart that it's no good to fight against him, and maybe he will get more bitter consequences instead.

Mr. Taiping has no other abilities, the staff under Zhi's hand really come one by one.

Seeing that the two young ones finished writing the topic in hand, Guo Jia immediately picked up the two children's arguments, made some guidance and corrections respectively, and marked the omissions and deficiencies, and asked them to take them back and study hard. change.

Then, he handed over the subject to the potter and asked him to review it again.

After Guo Jia's guidance and corrections, the pottery merchant basically couldn't find any faults. Although he himself had been learning from Huangfusong, in terms of governance ability, compared with Guo Jia, who was born wise, he was still inferior. somewhat inferior.

The potter picked out a few deficiencies symbolically, and then handed over the bamboo slips to the two children, asking them to come and learn again tomorrow.

The two children waved the white feather fan and palm sunflower fan in their hands respectively, saluted the potter and Guo Jia respectively, and then Shi Shi abruptly exited the hall.

Seeing the disappearance of the two children, the pottery merchant turned his head to thank Guo Jia, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Feng Xiao, for helping me with my students. You have worked hard as a teaching assistant. Later, Tao will get you some good wine!"

Guo Jia snorted when he heard the words, as if he was very unwilling to pee on the pottery.

Chapter 2 Zhuge Liang's Talent

When the lesson was over, the two gentlemen began to gossip about the two children.

"What do you think of these two children?" The potter asked Guo Jia with a smile.

Guo Jia rubbed his chin, raised his eyebrows slightly, and began to think about the abilities of these two boys.

"They are all good seedlings, and each has its own strengths."

The pottery merchant leaned forward and wondered, "Why do each have their own strengths?"

Guo Jia took the wine gourd from behind, and began to drink by himself again. After drinking, he began to analyze slowly to the potter: "Your great apprentice Sima Yi is lively, active, thoughtful, and quite intelligent. The city government, if it is in politics in the future, it must be a good hand. Although Guo is a loafer, he will not misjudge people. few."

Tao Shang was deeply aware of the poison in Guo Jia's eyes, nodded his head, and said, "Brother Gan is right, Sima Yi is indeed a combination of movement and movement, I think so too, what about Zhuge Liang?"

Mentioning Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia's expression completely changed.

The prodigal son seemed to have a very appreciative smile on his lips.

"Zhuge Liang is really a dutiful boy. He has outstanding political ideas and vision, and his thoughts are also extremely sharp. When Guo was his age, he couldn't come up with his unique insights. This child's ability should be far above Sima Yi, but this child has a problem, that is, he is too serious in doing things, and he is somewhat rigid. This is a defect, but as a human being, there are always advantages and disadvantages. Perfect person, if some things need to be changed, it will definitely not happen overnight."

The potter nodded and said: "No matter what kind of personalities the two of them have, they are only the talents of the next generation. When they grow up to be able to take charge of their own affairs, this chaotic world may be over. When it comes to the era of Qingping, it depends on how these two children find their own positions."

Guo Jia laughed heartily, and said frankly: "If you want to make good use of the talents in the world, you need to have a good system and control. There is always a balanced struggle between the master and the servant. This is what Guo believes. , No one can do it perfectly, but they can continue to improve, just like the problem you are facing today, but in fact it is a problem that every master of the world is facing. Your respect for the gentry in Xuzhou There are some taboos, but how can you know that the nobles under Yuan Shao are even more powerful. Yuan Shao is in the whirlpool, and he can only rely on his nobles to act, and he can't be biased in the slightest. Compared with him, Your current situation is nothing more than a tribulation, not worth mentioning."

The pottery merchant roughly understood what Guo Jia meant.

When dealing with subordinates, if you want balance and stability, the most important thing is the system and skills, and the balance point must be grasped just right.

The world is so big that there is no prince who is not like this. The things I am doing now are really not difficult.

If he is really lucky enough to survive until the end of the troubled times, then according to the potter's thinking, he has a set of means to restrict the power of his subordinates and the power of the gentry ministers.

After all, in later dynasties, people like this abound.

The dynasties worth learning from may be the Song, Ming, and Qing dynasties.

Let's talk about the one-shot decision.

"Brother Gan, besides these two children, after a while, there may be another person who will come to our Jinling City. This person is very important to me. I hope Brother Gan can help me take care of him. When he is free, You can also teach him more skills, I hope he can display his talents in the shortest possible time."

Guo Jia was surprised at first when he heard the words, and then thought about it carefully, a look of horror suddenly appeared on his face.

"You mean, it's not your younger brother, Tao Ying, right?"

A relieved smile appeared on the corner of the potter's mouth.

"Brother Gan is really smart. You can't hide anything from you. You guessed it all at once. It's amazing!"

Guo Jia's expression was as if he had swallowed a big fat and tender fly.

It is as disgusting as it is disgusting.

"That younger brother of yours...is really talented, Guo doesn't seem to have much ability to teach him, right?"

The potter's smile became deeper and deeper: "Brother Qian is too modest. Brother Qian is so talented and capable. My younger brother can't learn it from you in 100 years. I'm afraid that kid will trouble you in the future." , there are still a lot.”

Guo Jia wanted to cry when he heard the words.

Guo Jia had seen that second idiot when he was in Pengcheng.

In Guo Jia's eyes, the child and the potter are completely different in nature.

How to describe...

If it is really like what the pottery merchant said, training that kid to become a talent can be said to be completely idiotic, and anyone can see this.

Tao and his father don't know what's going on!

"What office do you want your brother to be?"

The pottery merchant thought for a while, and suddenly said: "If one day, I have enough official positions, these generals and civil servants under my command must be restrained by a governor."

Guo Jia almost sprayed the old blood on the ground.

Train your younger brother to be the Governor of Chengdu?

play too!

Just as he was about to find a reason to reject this impossible task, he heard footsteps behind him, and Guo Jia and the potter couldn't help but look at the main entrance of the hall at the same time.

But I saw that it was Xiao Zhuge Liang who had left the prefect's mansion just now, but he turned back at some point.

He stood at the entrance of the hall, looking nervously at the potter and Guo Jia who were talking inside, his eyes full of timidity.
