"Ma Zhou, I really didn't expect you to be able to afford it!" Chen Fei said jokingly.

Ma Zhou said ashamedly: "I have been in a confused situation before, if it wasn't for Chen Senjun who woke me up, I would have been immersed in the wine table." I have learned that we should find more reasons from ourselves, and we can't just blame others. I used to shift the responsibility to others, and I never looked for the reason in myself, which is why I ended up like this. If I were my boss, I wouldn't like a subordinate who is drunk during working hours. ”

Chen Fei nodded, this Ma Zhou actually has good potential. Ma Zhou was able to be the prime minister in the original history, which shows that he is still capable. But he didn't have a good personality, that is, he didn't recognize himself. He always finds the reason from others when he encounters things, but he has never been able to find the reason from himself. If he doesn't change his outlook on life, I'm afraid there really is no hope. After all, no one can accept a subordinate who is not serious about his work attitude and drinks heavily during working hours. After all, even those civil servants in later generations would not dare to drink heavily during working hours for a long time! This Ma Zhou is really a superlative, and he has been in demand during working hours for several years, if Chen Fei hadn't known from history that he was a talent, he would have been fired a long time ago.

However, Ma Zhou, judging from his situation, is also a traditional literati thought. Ma Zhou has always wanted someone who can appreciate him, but he has never had anyone to reuse him. This kind of character, in fact, is the kind of hope to be able to meet a master in troubled times, and then take refuge in this master to fight the world for him, and you can be crowned a marquis after the fact.

Of course, Ma Zhou was actually very unlucky. If he could have been born a few decades earlier, he might be able to catch up with the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and he could choose a master to take refuge in, so that he might be able to be the so-called "second-in-command" directly, and he could be the prime minister directly after dominating the world.

And he was very unlucky. When he became an adult, he encountered an era that had just been peaceful, and the country was basically free of major wars. And in times of peace, it is not like in troubled times, and the monarch is hungry and thirsty for talents. The selection of talents in peacetime has formed a custom, and it will not be casually found by the excitement of the monarch and immediately entrusted with important tasks. This kind of thing is not possible in peacetime, especially when a country is at its peak. Therefore, Ma Zhou's idea of hoping to one day be appreciated by the master and immediately reused is too difficult.

If you want to use the words of later generations to describe it, it is that Ma Zhou is too impetuous. He is not willing to do things in a down-to-earth manner. He hopes to be able to enter the officialdom immediately, get reused directly, and then improve rapidly. This kind of person is too impetuous, in fact, it is not good for his future. Since the state has formulated a mechanism for selecting and employing people, if there are too many things that go to the sky in one step, it will make the entire officialdom become impetuous, and then the officials are not thinking about doing things in a down-to-earth manner, but thinking about what kind of sycophants to please their bosses for promotion.

"Ma Zhou, since you want to follow me. Then I'm going to persuade you! Although I am younger than you, I have a few years of experience in officialdom, would you like to listen? Chen Fei said.

Ma Zhou took the initiative to say: "There is no order to learn, and the master is the teacher." Please join the army Chen for advice! ”

"Your biggest problem is that you are too impetuous, and you can't do things with peace of mind. If you can do things with peace of mind, your future is still very ambitious. The reason why you can't be promoted for a long time is because you don't have a background. The main thing is that you are too impetuous. If you can calm down and do things with peace of mind, then you will definitely be able to achieve a lot of things! Chen Fei said the first point.

Ma Zhou immediately said: "The lesson of Chen's participation in the army is that I was too whimsical in the past. Thinking of being able to reach the sky in one step, lack of patience. But after Chen joined the army and learned a lesson, I know my shortcomings and shortcomings, and I hope that Chen will be able to give more advice in the future! ”

"Well, the second point, that is, you quit drinking!" Chen Fei said.

Ma Zhou said with some hesitation: "Do you want to quit drinking?" ”

"Of course, I'm sure if you continue to drink heavily, you won't live to be forty!" Chen Fei said.

Of course, Chen Fei knew that Ma Zhou died at the age of forty-two in history, but this time he made the matter more serious, so that Ma Zhou could pay attention to it. Ma Zhou has thirst quenching, that is, diabetes. Diabetes is not too terrible, but Ma Zhou still has a bad habit, that is, drinking. A diabetic loves to drink, and that's the end of it. Alcoholism can cause many complications of diabetes, and in history, Ma Zhou died of complications of diabetes, which Chen Fei had just investigated the cause of Ma Zhou's death not long ago.

Judging from the information of Ma Zhou in history, Ma Zhou is indeed very fond of drinking, and even claims to be very drunk. But his body absolutely can't stand drinking like this, after all, diabetes is most afraid of alcoholism. In history, Ma Zhou died early in the prime of life because of drinking, which was very tragic. Ma Zhou was only about forty years old when he died, which was the golden age of a politician, so whether it was for him or for the country, the loss was very huge. Since Chen Fei wants to accept this Ma Zhou's refuge, the most important thing is naturally to persuade him to quit drinking, and he must not drink too much.

Ma Zhou heard Chen Fei swear that if he continued to drink, he would not live to be forty years old, which really scared Ma Zhou. Ma Zhou is now in his twenties, and if the slightest death at the age of forty dies, it will be less than ten years of life. More than ten years of life, which is not too long! So Ma Zhou was also afraid, especially if his great cause was not accomplished, he naturally didn't want him to die so soon.

"Alright! In the future, I will listen to Chen join the army, I will stop drinking, and I will not drink if I can! Ma Zhou replied.

Chen Fei was also happy, because this Ma Zhou is actually a very promising person, and Chen Fei already plans to invest for a long time. If he had been drinking too much for a long time and had a short life, it would have been a huge loss. Chen Fei doesn't want the "high-performance stocks" that he has invested a lot of money in maintaining for a long time to suddenly be scrapped and become a bunch of junk stocks, which will be miserable. Therefore, it is necessary to let Ma Zhou quit drinking, so that this "high-performance stock" can grow well and not let Chen Fei suffer losses. And Chen Fei can also get a long-term assistant, and even an important ally in the political arena in the future. (To be continued, please search, the novel is better and updated faster!)
