Wealth and glory seek stability

Chapter 276 Facing the Crowd

As an old servant who has followed Tao Ran for a long time, his foresight and vision are beyond the reach of ordinary people. As long as one of what Jian Xi said is true, and looking at the current situation in Saibei, they still have the family fortune accumulated over the years, and they may be able to create glory again if they try. You must know that the family of the Saibei grassland lord was the Santa family, which was known as the richest family in the Xuanwu Dynasty.

Caixia was wearing the tiger-skin cloak that Jian Xi had given her. She had never seen so many people before, nor had she been in one place with so many men. Even though there was no one around, she felt a little uneasy. She could only stand in a corner where no one noticed her, quietly watching Jian Xi's handsome eyes flying and his impassioned speech.

Next to the stage where Jian Xi was standing was a pile of ruins, but she still confidently said that the place could be completely renovated within five years. Her small body seemed to contain endless energy, and her voice was full of unquestionable authority.

Is this really the little girl who once lay on the same bed with her in the palace and shared the cakes and pastries given by the master?

Caixia suddenly felt a little confused, as if they were fellow travelers who she once thought would walk side by side, but one day she suddenly found that she would never be able to catch up with Jian Xi.

A fire started in Caixia's heart. Others said that she was like a piece of dead wood. Even if she burned, she could only light up a corner at most and would be extinguished in a short time. Today, she saw an evaluation that was also like a piece of dead wood, but it was becoming more and more full, and the blazing fire illuminated the entire grassland.

Maybe what others said was wrong.

During the journey, she sat in the carriage and thought about Caiyun's advice before she left: "You are a girl, when you reach your age, you should find a good family to take care of your husband and children. If you keep running around like this, how will you find a husband in the future?"

The farther I got from the capital, the more panic I felt, as if I had escaped from my predetermined destiny and my soul suddenly felt like it had nowhere to go.

Looking at the roadside scenery changing from snow-covered to green grass, then to blooming mountain flowers, and finally to the withered grass today, it turns out that the sky outside is still so blue, and the people outside look no different from those in the capital.

Jian Xi's calmness gave her enough peace of mind. Since her sister could gain a foothold here, why couldn't she?

On a road that has never been walked, fools dare not move forward, but as long as someone takes the first step and succeeds, the latter will follow boldly and move forward.

Except for the Tao family, the rest are Jian Xi's confidants.

"Lord, we believe in you." Tang Qian raised his fist, his wrinkled face full of excitement.

He knew the situation in the northern border too well. The past prosperity of this land seemed like gossip. No one understood the value of the northern border better than him. However, after more than a decade of war, the people here had long lost hope. Now, he would devote all his heart and soul to protecting this little rising star even at the cost of his own life.

Tang Xiaomi held her father's hand and looked at Qu Xuan on the side, "Lord, we believe in you." The childish voice was full of vitality.

Jian Xi looked from afar across the crowd and saw the two little guys shouting hard, their pretty eyes and brows blooming with charm.

Then it was Qu Lian, Qi Si, Wu Zhan, Mo Chuan, Chu Lu... With someone taking the lead, everyone shouted in unison, "Lord, we believe in you."

You want to stand on the stage and feel the shock. The sound spreads from the main city street and more people come.

Jian Xi made a palm with her five fingers, "Qiangwei, Second Master Tao, come up."

Qiangwei was in a hurry on the road, and the clothes she was wearing were the Xuanwu Dynasty clothes that Jian Xi had given her. She wore a pointed hat with a turned-up brim on her head, a bright red robe, and a belt made of brocade of the same color decorated with huge pearls and silver. She also wore a gold-rimmed collarless double-breasted waistcoat with straight-cut red gold buttons on the top, and cowhide short boots on her feet. As she often dealt with people, she had a natural calmness and generosity.

Tao Lejiao was still dressed like an ordinary man from the Xuanyuan Dynasty, wearing a refined military uniform and a fox fur coat. His tall figure was matched with his feminine and beautiful looks, and his unruly eyes and eyebrows added to his heroic spirit. At first glance, he was obviously a noble man of extraordinary status.

Two people came on stage.

Jian Xi stood in the middle.

The combination of handsome men and beautiful women is eye-catching wherever they go.

Jian Xi's words and actions always make people ignore her cool and beautiful appearance. The two people on the stage are both dressed in gorgeous clothes, and everyone is looking forward to what they will say next.

"I am not the kind of person who only talks big and makes empty promises. Please look, this is Manager Jin of Fengyu, the first grain store in Xia country. She has promised to build a branch of Fengyu in the northern part of the Great Wall. Once the agricultural officer arrives and determines the soil and suitable crops, Manager Jin will lend us rice seeds for sowing. We will return the seeds to her after the harvest next year."

After introducing Qiangwei, Jian Xi took a step to the left. Tao Le felt a little uncomfortable, but still wanted to hear how Jian Xi would praise him. He unconsciously straightened his chest slightly and tried hard to suppress the curve of the corners of his mouth.

Jian Xi spoke up, "This is Tao Lejiao, the head of the Tao family, the first family in the Central Plains. He is a young talent. At the age of 19, he already holds important positions in the officialdom. The Tao family has decided to move to Xuanwu, and Saibei is their first stop.

Most of those standing in front are members of the Tao family. This is the determination of the Tao family. With the foundation of the first family and the strong support of the Xia Kingdom, I, Jian Xi, swear here that within five years, it will be your honor to be born in Saibei. "

Tao Lejiao could no longer hold back, and shamelessly accepted the young talent. How come he had never heard of a family with a large number of troops and the number one family in the Central Plains?

Due to the large number of people, he could only hold back his doubts and his expression became calmer. Jian Xi looked at Tao Lejiao who suddenly seemed to have more confidence and couldn't help but nodded secretly.

Only Tao Xingqian, who had known Tao Lejiao since childhood, knew that this was a sign of Tao Lejiao's guilty conscience.

Tao Xingqian wanted to laugh but didn't dare to say it out loud. In his opinion, Jian Xi's words were what only a strategic person could say. If one wants to accomplish something, one cannot be timid at the beginning.

However, I can somewhat understand Tao Ran's regret. Such a talent, who has worked so hard to get to where she is today as a woman, would have been a completely different story if she were a man.

Jian Xi's words gave everyone great confidence, as if Saibei was really a treasure land waiting for them to develop.

This is the effect you want.

Jian Xi knew that although the effects of temporary excitement were good, the most important thing was to let people see the tangible benefits.

The Tao family didn't follow her here just to sit there and watch the barren mountains. She allocated the largest house on the main street in the city to the Tao family as compensation.

Originally Tao Lejiao sneered and said he would not accept it even if it was given for free. Seeing this, Tao Xingqian hurriedly held down Tao Lejiao and let him continue to commit suicide.

The Tao Lie family is a worry-free family. They are content as long as they have a place to live.
