with this plan, Su Shi's money can last for more than a year.
Su Shi did not wait for the end of the mountain and water. With the help of his friends, he also applied to the Yamen for a piece of land to grow food, opening up the open source mode.
although Su Shi did not farm, he still ushered in a bumper harvest-nearly 20 stone of grain.
since then, Su Shi no longer worried about the food and clothing of his family, but also began to live calmly and meditate on life.

but only Tian Dan prepared for the escape in advance. He ordered someone to saw off all the protruding parts of the axle and press the iron hoop.
on the way of escape, in order to escape faster, many carriages caused many collisions due to road grabbing, resulting in axles breaking one after another, unable to continue walking, and were finally captured by the Yan army.
and Tian Dan escaped with his people because he had made full preparations.

be vigilant the road is smooth
there is such a fable:
when the fox saw the wolf grinding his teeth on the ground, he said to the wolf:
"the weather is so beautiful, come and play with us!"
the wolf ignored it and continued to grind his teeth. Gradually, the teeth became sharp and sharp.
the fox does not understand why the wolf without any danger grinds his teeth so hard.
the wolf said:
Yes, be prepared in advance so as not to be afraid of possible problems.
as the saying goes:
A person who knows how to be vigilant must be a long-term person who sees the possible danger and prepares in advance. For people like

Tang Dynasty Prime Minister Fang Xuanling said:
people with foresight can see the potential risks in advance, often be vigilant and plan in advance.
just like Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty.
Kangxi ascended the throne in fashion and young. Aobai, as an assistant minister, gradually dominated the government and the opposition.
after Kangxi was 14 years old and announced his pro-politics, Aobai still looked like I was dominant. Although he could not do anything to Kangxi, the excessive power of Aobai made Kangxi restless.
so Kangxi chose some able-bodied teenagers to pretend to be addicted to the game of force every day.
Aobai only regards Kangxi's behavior as a child's playfulness.
however, a gentleman keeps things in his body and waits for time to move.
when the time was right, Kangxi ordered the teenagers who trained every day to take advantage of Aobai's defenselessness to catch him.
imagine, if Kangxi hadn't made early preparations, how could he have caught the experienced Aobai unexpectedly?
only by taking a long-term view and making preparations in advance can we take precautions.
because you take a long-term view, you can find potential dangers and be prepared in time.
this is the ability to become lucky people blessed by fate and pass by danger.

the smartest way to do things
is that when things change in advance
, no one knows what will happen next.
to prepare in advance is to leave room for manoeuvre.
it's not a pity to be prepared and not needed. In any case, it's better than being unprepared when you need it.
this is not only the wisdom of doing things, but also the embodiment of responsibility.
preparing for small things in advance is responsible for yourself, preparing for big things in advance, and being responsible for others.
