Eighth year of Chongzhen

Chapter 691 Only with a platform can we better discover talents
In addition to Wen Kan's outstanding performance, which attracted Zhu Youjian's attention, Sun Kedi's words and deeds after arriving in Hubei were also the focus of Zhu Youjian's attention.

Compared with Wen Kan, who was particularly eye-catching because of his duties and background, the fact that Sun Kedi, who was well-known in the Imperial College, went to Hubei did not attract much attention, and Sun Kedi's performance did not attract Zhu You. Check disappointed.

The family education of famous ministers is indeed not built. Some of the descendants of famous ministers have indeed inherited the excellent genes from their ancestors.

Although Zhu Youjian felt a little strange about Sun Kedi's completely different behavior style from his father, after careful consideration, he also understood the reason.

As soon as Sun Kedi was born, Sun Chuanting went out to become an official. When he was two years old, Sun Chuanting resigned from office and returned home, and then stayed in his hometown in Daizhou for 14 years until he was reinstated by Zhu Youjian in the eighth year of Chongzhen.

It can be said that the most important stage of Sun Kedi's life happened to be accompanied by Sun Chuanting's precepts and deeds, which laid a solid foundation for Sun Kedi to form a correct three views.

Because Sun Chuanting in this period was in a depressed period when he had no way to serve the country. When educating his son, he must have spared no effort to instill his own views on the current situation into Sun Kedi, which would also be mixed with many principles of life.

For example, in order to display your talents, you must be in a high position, and in the process of being promoted, you can't be self-willed like a father, you have to be tactful, and you have to learn to save the country with curves.

Preaching alone is not enough. If you want to put these teachings of your father into practice, you must have a platform and environment.

It just so happened that in the eighth year of Chongzhen, Sun Chuanting left home to go to Shaanxi. In order to appease the famous minister, Zhu Youjian sent someone to take Sun Chuanting's family members to the capital, and Sun Kedi immediately entered the Imperial College for further studies.

It was Zhu Youjian's unintentional actions that gave Sun Kedi the opportunity to apply the ideas instilled by his father into practice. Through constant attempts, Sun Kedi finally found the most popular way to deal with people .

According to the regular reports submitted by Jin Yiwei, among the more than 1000 candidates who went to the mountains and went to the countryside, Sun Kedi's performance can be said to be outstanding, which is very different from others.

When most of the candidates were complaining about the harsh environment, after the initial discomfort, Sun Kedi quickly integrated into the environment, showing good understanding and a very strong organization ability.

In cooperating with the local officials to carry out a series of complicated and trivial resettlement tasks, Sun Kedi has no pretensions of a son of a family, and has never revealed his identity to others. The means are used in practice.

A hero has three gangs, and a fence has three stakes.

Sun Kedi, who is well versed in this way, knows that it is quite difficult to achieve superhuman feats by himself, so this grandson quickly found a group of like-minded people from the same place.

After two months of running-in, this small team of 15 people was divided into two groups. He and another Juzi Fang Laiyun from Qingzhou Prefecture, Shandong Province each led a group. After demarcating their respective areas, they met Comparing their performance after completing the task, in order to motivate the team members to devote themselves to their work.

Practice has proved that as long as you find a way to overcome difficulties and throw yourself into it when you encounter difficulties, the combination of these two methods will make it difficult to succeed.

With the passage of time, these two small teams have basically adapted to the environment they are in, and through personal input, they have also gained a more real understanding of the daily hardships of ordinary farmers in Daming.

In his spare time, Sun Kedi never forgets to guide the team members with the scriptures and the teachings of the sages, and encourages everyone to take life and the people as their purpose, and strive to contribute their own efforts in the process of creating a prosperous world.

These scholars, who live without worrying about food and clothing, or who are well-clothed and well-fed, compare what they are going through now with the leisurely and contented life in the past, and only then do they understand what is meant by the suffering of the people.

Those Li Shu who worked hard all day long for food and clothing brought a great shock to the depths of their hearts.

Whenever these "grassmen" get help from their group, the kind of respect and gratitude from the heart often make the scholars feel deeply.

When anyone receives sincere gratitude for being kind to others, that sense of satisfaction will unconsciously purify the soul to varying degrees.

In order to express their gratitude to the government and these Wenqu stars, farmers will send a piece of grass carp, a bag of field snails, a few crabs, a few eels and other food that they are reluctant to eat just caught from the pond in the field. The children were sent to the thatched huts and wooden sheds where the scholars lived.

When these shy children swayed and brought the food, and timidly told the scholars, then threw it away and ran away, the conscience of these scholars was finally fully aroused.

After similar things happened countless times, the scholars finally regarded these grassroots people whom they had despised as compatriots, and deeply realized the difficulty of grassroots people, and devoted themselves even more to the next work.

While feeling gratified about Sun Kedi's performance, during the entire resettlement period, other outstanding performers were also brought into Zhu Youjian's sight.

This plan proposed and implemented by Wen Tiren out of his own inner imbalance has inadvertently become an important way for Ming Dynasty to discover and cultivate future talents.

The unity of knowledge and action advocated by Wang Yangming has been well demonstrated in this occasional tide.

How to apply the learned knowledge to practice has been a difficult problem since ancient times. The reason lies in the lack of a platform combining theory and practice, but today, this platform was born.

The first thing Zhu Youjian does every day is to browse all kinds of intelligence and information sent by the officials, censors, and Jin Yiwei from all over Hubei, and then record the outstanding figures among them, and list them as one of the targets of continuous observation. In the future, we will consider how to arrange them in combination with their subsequent performance.

In the process of governing the country and creating a prosperous world, countless talents in all aspects are needed.

Make great use of great talents, use small talents in small ways, apply according to their aptitude, do not seek perfection and blame, and allow everyone to have their own shortcomings and mistakes. This is Zhu Youjian's employment strategy and policy.

No one is perfect, if you can't ask for perfection and blame, if you can't do it yourself, don't stand on the commanding heights and criticize.

The entire resettlement work will continue for several years. After most of the immigrants stabilize, many people who perform well in this process will be appointed officials on the spot and officially become members of the Ming system.

In order to prevent someone from raising objections to their future promotions by using their status as Jinshi and Juren, Zhu Youjian planned to open the back door and learn from the lock hall examination system in the Song Dynasty to give these juren the status of Jinshi.

　Thanks Zeng Decai for the reward.
