Ancient natural disasters: The whole family traveled through time and was almost wiped out

Chapter 150

"Stop thinking about those dirty things and talk about the real things." Jiang Suying poured herself a glass of water, and Jiang Yipei also asked, "What do you think about County Magistrate Chen?"

"What else can I think? I'll just refuse first." Jiang Yipei took a sip of water and frowned, "I don't know if it's my illusion, but I always feel that County Magistrate Chen is very eager to have armed forces, but it's not all for the safety of Luoshui County. He's a little secretive, but I can't tell what's wrong."

"He is a grassroots official. Could he really have the guts to rebel? To become a tyrant in troubled times?"

"I don't think so." Jiang Yipei shook his head.

Jiang Suying couldn't believe it: "After so many days, you haven't found out any information at all?"

"...Shame on him, he's so tight-lipped!"

"So, there is no possibility of cooperation?"

"He wants to train his troops. Do I dare to cooperate with him?"

Jiang Suying knew that her man always pursued stability, or to put it bluntly, was timid, but how many paths were open to them now?

"Let's analyze our current situation."

"First, Magistrate Chen knows that we have a large amount of grain in stock. Second, he knows that we have harvesters."

"Oh no! What a mistake! I shouldn't have revealed the secret of the harvester!"

You really can't be soft-hearted when doing big things. How many cards have they exposed in order to provide more livelihoods for the people?

"If you know it earlier, you won't have to beg for clothes! The problem is that now that he knows, will he do something bad to us?"

Jiang Yipei: "..." He really didn't dare to guarantee this. He had only known County Magistrate Chen for a few days? Moreover, the current County Magistrate Chen was not the non-competitive, gentle, and hardworking County Magistrate Chen in the original owner's memory.

"Also, the March rain disaster can change a lot of things. For example, the food supply of the entire Great Sheng Nation has dropped sharply, and the supply of survival materials is in short supply. Even if the rain stops and there is some time to recuperate, there will be heavy snow again soon."

"This is an era where agriculture is the basis of life. Every aspect of life is closely related to the land. If the land does not produce anything, it will directly curb the source of life. In other words, in this year, or even in the next two years, the amount of food that can be grown on the land of the entire Dasheng country is negligible."

"And we have a large amount of food. This is not a secret, at least in Nanxiang Town and Luoshui County. If County Magistrate Chen takes action, then it will not be a secret in the entire Chunzhou and the entire Lingnan Road."

With every word Jiang Suying said, Jiang Yipei's face became uglier: "By then, an innocent man will be guilty of possessing a treasure! Even if you have an endless supply of food, if you don't have the ability to protect yourself, there will always be a day when it will be taken away. Then everything we do now and everything we insist on will become a joke."

Jiang Suying: "The plan to build a refuge fortress based on Jiangjia Village is completely unfeasible. Not only is it very expensive, but it will also take a long time to build. I'm afraid that the fortress will be destroyed by County Magistrate Chen before it's built."

"This County Magistrate Chen seems to have given us the right to choose, but in reality, we have no choice at all. Oh, no, unless we can find a backer who is more powerful than him."

"It's just that this so-called backer, regardless of whether or not County Magistrate Chen is reliable, will definitely not be found in a short period of time, and County Magistrate Chen will not give us a chance to find one."

When working with others, you are not only controlled by them, but it is also very easy to be exploited.

The risk is higher than stock trading.
