Li Xuan shook his head, thinking that only if his head had been kicked by a donkey would he be foolish enough to implement land equality in Fusou.
He was not here to be a savior to let these Fusou people live the good life, nor did he intend to set them on the path to becoming a powerful nation.
One of the conditions agreed upon with the Fusou Emperor was that Jin must not annex Fusou, even going so far as to promise to find for Li Xuan within ten days, two straight blades containing the "Jiguang" Rule.
This fell right into Li Xuan's hands, as he had no intention of annexing the territory.
Emperor Tai of Jin said, "Expanding territory is not a plan for long-standing security; taxing the people leads to chaos," which Li Xuan deeply agreed with.
The borders of a country should not simply be as big as possible.
For places like Fusou and Annan, the cost of direct governance is extremely high.
