"Chen County Order, why do you still care about whether people in the world can study in the future? Recently, the county government has been talking about you behind your back, saying that you are a little unreasonable. At that time, you were concerned about whether the people of the world could eat meat, and now you are concerned about the question of what people in the world can read. This is not compatible with your position, how did you start thinking about these problems as a county magistrate? These should be considered by the princes in the imperial court, is it a little ...... for you to worry about these as a county commander," Yang Jiaxiang asked.

Yang Jiaxiang was an ordinary scribe after all, and he couldn't understand why Chen Fei would worry about such trivial things. First of all, everyone in the world can afford to eat meat, this is a matter of people's livelihood, it should be only those prime ministers who should worry about it, a county order to worry about, isn't this too ridiculous? As for the world's reading, this should be something that only those famous Confucians are worried about, but Chen Fei is also worried. Chen Fei even plans to set up a private school to strive for more people to receive education. And these have nothing to do with the identity of a county order, and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with it. Therefore, Yang Jiaxiang didn't quite understand that Chen Fei was busy all day long and didn't belong to things that he should be in charge of, was this a bit unprofessional.

"Old Yang! Do you know why you are still a scrivener, ≯ ± long ≯ ± wind ≯ ± literature ≯ ± learning, x. can't be promoted? Chen Fei asked.

And Yang Jiaxiang immediately said bitterly: "Yes! I'm in my thirties, and I'm younger than I. Although it is not easy for us scribes to be promoted, I think I still have some talent, but why can't I do this? ”

Yang Jiaxiang was also spitting out bitterness, obviously not very satisfied with his career.

"Because you think of yourself as a scribe, you may be a scribe for the rest of your life! And now that you can become a secretary, it is already your peak, so if you don't have a special reason. It's hard to get promoted. Chen Fei replied.

"Why? I'm just a scribe now, so what if I don't think of myself as a scribe? Please also ask Chen County to give advice! Yang Jiaxiang asked curiously.

Chen Fei then explained: "The ancients are cloudy, and those who are above the law have it. The law is under it, and it has to be under it. Do you understand what this phrase means? ”

"I see, the Dharma is also the meaning of imitation. The meaning of this sentence is to imitate the superior thing, and then you end up with the medium thing. And if you imitate something medium, then you will only end up with inferiority. Yang Jiaxiang said.

Chen Fei immediately continued: "The item is like this. How is it not the case with people? If you think of yourself as a scribe, then you think about the direction of the problem from the inside of your mind, as well as all kinds of behavior styles, and you also demand yourself according to the standards of a scribe. You haven't thought about how you should govern when you sit in my position as a county magistrate. Have you ever considered how you should lead the officials of the county to work together for the benefit of the people if you one day sit in my position as the county magistrate? ”

"This. I didn't! Yang Jiaxiang said.

"Yes! If you admit that you didn't think so, then you have set yourself up to be a scribe, and all your behavior is in the way of a scribe. You flattered the former Niu County Commander, and now you will please me. It's just to be able to reap the benefits. Of course, you are qualified as a scribe, but as an official, you are obviously not qualified. And you've made yourself a scribe. So that is to say, it determines your future. ”

"There is also an old saying that the world is as big as the heart. This sentence is classic! If a person positions himself as a petty official, he will never become a big official. If you define yourself as a scribe, it will be difficult for you to become an official in your life. Only by thinking of yourself as a higher level person can you make your future extremely bright. Don't look at me as a small county ordinance now, and the jurisdiction is just a county. But if I want to be a prime minister who rules the whole country, then the way of looking at things will be different. If you are just a county magistrate, you are just a pawn on the whole chessboard. If you think of yourself as the prime minister of the whole country, then you can become a chess player. ”

"And I regard me as the prime minister who oversees the whole country, so I am naturally the mentality of a prime minister. Therefore, I naturally have to care about the development of the people's livelihood, and naturally I also have to care about the cultural and educational affairs of the whole country. If you only focus on this county, then you will not be able to move up for the rest of your life. ”

The truth that Chen Fei said is actually very simple. How big a person's pattern is determines how big his future prospects are. Although officials pay attention to the support of others, although many people rely on the support of others to reach high positions, but if you want others to support you, you must also have the ability to let people help you up! Back then, Liu Adou was not Zhuge Liang, but he couldn't help him. So it's the same for officials, if you can't do it yourself, there is no need for others to support you.

If you just focus on the things in your authority and numbly follow the orders of your superiors, then you are afraid that you will not have much future at all. You must have your own ideas, clear your goals, and set up your own ideals, so that you can really enlarge the pattern. If you magnify your own pattern, then you will also find that the petty profits that you have been entangled in in the past are nothing at all.

Therefore, when playing politics, we must clearly see what should be grasped and what should be given up and shared. If you have always grasped some small profits in your hands and given up bigger things, it is naturally like picking sesame seeds and losing watermelon.

"However, Chen County Order, if you set yourself up high, can you become a high-ranking official? So why are there still so many people who have not been able to become high-ranking officials? Yang Jiaxiang asked.

"Becoming a high-ranking official depends on chance. If you want to be the prime minister, ability, opportunity, luck, and even some inexplicable reasons can be combined. But if you don't even have the pattern of being a prime minister, then even if you reluctantly become a prime minister, you won't be able to do it for long. So you go and tell those scribes, don't think of yourself as a scribe completely, you might as well think of yourself as a prefectural order, so that you may be more successful. Chen Fei said.

"Thank you for the teachings of Chen County's order, in the next Minggan five!" Yang Jiaxiang said.
