Kind-hearted people are not suitable for holding the military power and leading soldiers. People who lead troops to fight are brave and good at fighting, and it is impossible to decide things decisively if they are too kind and indecisive.
"No business" means:
People who put morality first are not fit to be businessmen. In doing business, businessmen put interests first and morality second. People who put morality first cannot do things correctly and rationally.
The complete four sentences are: "Kindness does not command soldiers, love does not do things, righteousness does not manage money, and goodness does not serve officials."
Too kind-hearted people can't lead troops, too emotional people can't achieve great things, too generous and honest people can't manage money, and too kind people can't be officials.

People who are kind and don't command soldiers, people who are kind and kind have no dignity, but those who command soldiers will be more powerful than those who are kind, and those who can combine kindness with kindness are the best people.
Translation:
Good people don't lead troops. If a person is kind and kind, then he has no dignity. Because there is no general's command, soldiers can't move; Without the majesty of the general, the army would be very chaotic and unorganized. Therefore, a soldier must be more dignified than kind, and it is best if this person can integrate the two.
