How to use people is always the most critical issue for those who are superior. Especially for kings, using the wrong person is very likely to bring great harm, but using the right person can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Just like when the Chu State's founding emperor Min Wei was alive, Cheng Wuben was the commander of the eastern border army. After twenty years, no matter how others attacked, Cheng Wuben was known as the iron wall of Chu State, making Qi State unable to cross the line. You must know that the eastern part of Chu State had no danger to defend, and Cheng Wuben was in the east for twenty years, with Kunling Pass as the center and connecting the six eastern counties into one. Even Cao Yun, the genius commander of Qi State, could not be used in front of Cheng Wuben. Once Luo Liang was replaced, the defense line that was built in twenty years was destroyed in three or four years and disappeared.

The insight is not far away, and Qin Feng has to be more cautious about how to appoint the next Minister of Personnel. Quan Yun can do a good job in the position of chief minister. In fact, his greatest ability is to be good at mixing with others, be able to handle relationships in all aspects well, reduce the confrontation between people with different opinions to the lowest level, and then find the common interests of each person, so as to achieve win-win results for all parties. It has to be said that so far, he has done a good job, not only to make Qin Feng but also to satisfy other aspects.

But in Qin Feng's opinion, Fang Dazhi or Jin Shengnan does not have Quan Yun's ability. They are all very young and enterprising, but because of this characteristic, they are too sharp. If they are in charge of the country, this kind of sharpness is naturally a good thing, but if they are in charge of the internal affairs of a country, this kind of characteristic cannot be clearly explained whether it is good or bad. This is a sword, which can do things, but it can also be bad.

So Qin Feng was preparing to transfer all these two people into the center of the court, one in charge of the Ministry of Personnel and the other in charge of the Ministry of Revenue. These are two major departments, one in charge of money and the other in charge of people. They are both top-ranked yamen. Now the Ministry of Personnel is suppressing the Ministry of Revenue. That is because of Wang Hou's body. Where did Su Kairong dare to compete with Wang Hou? But since Wang Hou left, the boss of the Ministry of Personnel has disappeared, so naturally there will be no advantage. So it is really hard to say who can suppress who in the future?

It was just that the question of who was appointed as the Minister of Personnel and who was appointed as the Minister of Revenue made Qin Feng a little scratched his head. After all, the Ministry of Personnel was the first department of the court. Whoever was placed in this position would be regarded as the natural heir of the chief minister by others. To the other person, it would inevitably be a bit unfair. Even if Qin Feng did not have this intention in his heart, he could not stop people from thinking like this.

Qin Feng could not say publicly that he had no prejudice against these two people and completely allowed them to compete freely.

This is a difficult problem, and you have to think carefully about it and come up with a solution.

"Your Majesty, Commander Guo is here." Ma Hou walked into the study and reported to Qin Feng.

After throwing away the note in his hand, Qin Feng raised his head. Guo Jiuling had always been in the Hard Three Treasures Hall for nothing. Since he was here, it means that Chu Qi's affairs finally had a result.

"Please commander Guo come in." Qin Feng ordered.

Guo Jiuling walked in steadily, saluted, dragged a chair to sit in front of Qin Feng, and gave a private comment. Guo Jiuling knew that Qin Feng was impatient with the etiquette. The more casual he was, the happier Qin Feng would be. To be honest, Guo Jiuling liked this style very much, after all, he also came from the army.

"Old Guo, did Ning Ze go far away to see his brother yesterday? What are the actions?" Without waiting for Guo Jiuling to report to the work, Qin Feng asked a question first.

Guo Jiuling said: "Your Majesty, after the banquet ended yesterday, Lord Ning did go to Prince Ning's residence, and only brought two guards, and the light cart was there."

"Oh? Are the two brothers happy to meet each other?" In Qin Feng's opinion, it was naturally unhappy. Ning Zefeng said that he was not an incompetent person, but Ning Zeyuan was more in line with Qin Feng's needs.

"There is no pleasure or unpleasant!" Guo Jiuling shook his head, "Mr. Ning didn't go in at all. He just stood outside the gate for a while, sighed a few times, and then turned around and left."

"That's right!" A strange color flashed in Qin Feng's eyes, "I didn't expect Ning Zeyuan's mind was quite broad! I thought that if he was not good enough, he would break into the house and beat his brother!"

Qin Feng's words were not aimless. The two brothers competed for the position of Ning clan leader to a very fierce level. Ning Zefeng spared no effort to attack his half-brother, and even sold Ning Zeyuan to the pirates in the end, which was nakedly killed. The brothers fought to this extent and no longer had any brotherhood. When things turned around, Ning Zefeng had a good hand. After the Ming Dynasty got involved, he played terrible and eventually became a prisoner. Ning Zeyuan was proud and became a high-ranking official and noble in the Ming Dynasty. The difference between the ups and downs is the difference between heaven and hell. If Ning Zeyuan wanted to vent his anger, it was indeed reasonable.

But Ning Zeyuan's current style is extraordinary.

"Ning Zeyuan is indeed a master." Guo Jiuling nodded in agreement, "I am afraid I can't do this when I change my place. However, this person has such a mind, I want to congratulate Your Majesty on having a good minister."

"That's right, I'm still optimistic about this guy. You should pay attention to the relocation of Ning Shipyard in the next place. This is an important matter that concerns whether our shipbuilding industry can improve a level in a short period of time." Qin Feng said: "I hope to see the results as soon as possible."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Ning Zeyuan is not slow. He went to the Ministry of Revenue early this morning. What did he do?" Guo Jiuling smiled and said, "I guess at this time, Su Kairong shouldn't have time to report to you."

"Do I have to guess this?" Qin Feng laughed loudly, "He must have handed over all the proceeds from this maritime trade to the Ministry of Revenue."

"Your Majesty is wise. Ning Zeyuan said that this time, His Majesty originally asked him to take this wealth and compete with Ning Zefeng for the position of patriarch, but now it is no longer necessary. Then the money will naturally be handed over to the treasury."

"These things are all the capital he raised himself." Qin Feng smiled, "Let Su Kairong turn around and return the capital to him."

"Su Kairong is a clear person. He said that, but Ning Zeyuan is a very bachelor. He said that he was taken away by pirates and everything was taken away. According to the rules of the sea, these things no longer belong to him. Later, it was his Majesty who robbed them back, so these things are naturally His Majesty. How to use this money to fight for the position of the head of the Ning clan is considered a business operation, but now that it is not necessary, it naturally has to be handed over to the treasury."

"This Ning Zeyuan is indeed a little interesting." Qin Feng smiled: "Since he said that, let him go. This person's ideal is not above money. Mahou, please turn around and remember to say to Su's Ministry of Revenue, and say it's what I mean. Half of this money will be paid back to Baoqing Shipyard."

"Your Majesty, why not just hand it over to the Maritime Affairs Department?" Ma Hou asked in confusion.

"The Maritime Affairs Department is still a secret department now. If it is not disclosed, it will be allocated to the Maritime Affairs Department. How do you ask the Ministry of Revenue to take the account?" Qin Feng smiled, "If you leave the public account, you will not be able to hide anything. Although this matter will not be hidden sooner or later, it will be hidden for a while. I don't want Qi to know what I am doing!"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Mahou nodded in a sudden realization: "When Qi State finds out, our fleet has already formed combat power. At that time, they will not be opponents if they want to go against us. We can deal with them well and make them unable to achieve effective combat power on the sea. Haha, Qi State's Thousand Mile Coast, then we will land and hit them wherever we want."

"It seems that you have read a lot of books during this period!" Qin Feng laughed, "I've become more intelligent and I know how to think. Are you thinking about going out and blocking your side?"

Mahou laughed.

"It's going to take another two years!" Qin Feng waved his hand at him, "You are still young, and there has been no war in the past two years. Let's settle down and learn more."

"Your Majesty, I'm not young anymore, I'm already twenty years old."

"Are you very young at the age of twenty? When I was twenty, I was just a lieutenant, with you two thousand people. You are now twenty, but you are already with a 5,000 fire death camp. When you are war, you have to learn a lot! When you are fine, go to the kitten for advice. Well, there are many veteran generals who have retired from the capital. You can also learn from your master. If you come to your door, keep them to teach you."

"What qualifications do those defeated men have to teach me?" Ma Hou looked at me disdainfully.

"The defeated general?" Qin Feng showed a strange look in his eyes: "Little monkey, the defeat of Yue Kingdom is not because of the incompetence of the general, but because of Jun Wudao. Among the generals of Yue in the past, like Luo Yishui, Chen Ci, and the dead Wu Xin, you are against them. Do you think they are their opponents? Just talk about Wu Ling, do you think you can win against him?"

The horse and monkey couldn't help but stagger.

"Not to mention you, even I am extremely lacking in the battle of commanding large corps. I am still very arrogant when it comes to strategizing and winning a thousand miles, but when I commanded in the front, I knew it was clear. Fighting Hengdian was actually taking risks, and in the battle of Zhengyang was Xiaomao, Wu Ling and others. In the later war, do you think I interfered in the command of the generals? When the three of them walked, there must be my army, and those generals were all in their stomachs."
