Rebirth: Bringing a Husband to a Well-off Society

Chapter 289
Gu Xicheng asked suspiciously: "How could it be? No matter how poor Huai'an Mansion is, it shouldn't be like this. Although there are not many fertile lands, it is valuable because the land is large. Each family should have a lot of land. If you want to change it, you can afford it, but the land The problem?"

Ji Tongpan cupped his hands and said, "My lord is right, it's the land issue."

Gu Xicheng said with a smile: "I'm new here, but I don't know much about the crops here, and I don't know how the cultivated fields are. It's a joke. I hope Ji Tong will not laugh at it."

Ji Tongpan shook his head and said: "My lord is sympathetic to the people, and cares about the common people, so how can my subordinates laugh at me? My lord doesn't know that when the previous one came, he thought he had been promoted to a high official. He looks very proud."

Gu Xicheng also found it interesting, so he asked with a smile: "What happened after that?"

Ji Tongpan smiled sarcastically and said: "Naturally, I know how poor Huai'an Mansion is. It looks like I'm going to die. Every day is like mourning. Fortunately, I have no ability. Although I don't do anything, I can Not in the fish and meat town."

Gu Xicheng smiled and said: "If I don't come, it will be the same whether there is a mansion in Huai'an, but it's just a well-raised living person. It's a pity that I'm here."

Ji Tongpan said with a smile: "Master Gu, my Huai'an Mansion is poor, but I have never missed a penny, but how the court treats us, now the people of my Huai'an Mansion are wandering around. With no place to live, even small nomads can bully us."

Gu Xicheng's eyes darkened and he said: "Your Huai'an Mansion cannot protect itself because you have no ability. If you only rely on the court at all, it will be a matter of time before someone seizes you."

Ji Tongpan said heartbrokenly: "There are countless high-ranking people in the court. They have never experienced the suffering of the people. They only know how to suck blood with their mouths. Even though Huai'an has a vast land and rich resources, I can't stand this kind of trouble. What's more, the land here is barren and there is nothing. Long, those who live in temples don’t know how long the rivers and lakes are, nor how sad the people are.”

Gu Xicheng frowned and said: "I have heard people say that there is a family in the northern border who are good at fighting and attacking, and they are also warlike. Wars are their pleasure, but our country is still stable, and the northern border has never been broken. You know Why?"

Ji Tongpan was speechless when asked, he didn't know how to answer, is their generals and warriors good?No, good soldiers and good generals are definitely not easy to raise, and the northern border is even more bitter and cold.

Gu Xicheng didn't expect him to answer, so he said to himself: "The north is not broken, it is not because of good generals and elite soldiers guarding it, and the people in the north, regardless of men and women, can go to the battlefield with hoes and kitchen knives. They never thought about it." Relying on outsiders to help them guard their homes, their homes are in their own hands.

If the north is like the Huai'an Mansion, the war has already started, how can it be stable until now? You are right, the court and the opposition are intriguing, the princes gather, and there are many battles for the heir. I have never asked Huai'an how it is, but Why can't Huai'an strengthen himself?
If you only want to rely on other people, it will be a matter of time before you get to where you are now, not to mention that the emperor really paid attention to this place, even if he allocated money to you, so what if he gave you food and grass?
Do you want to live your life on these relief supplies?No, if it can save you, it can't save you for a while, and far away water can't save near fire. "

Ji Tongpan bowed his head when he said that, yes, he felt that others were unkind, but he never thought that he only wanted to rely on others.
