Yes, President Xu, in northern Jiangsu, at the beginning of the last century, northern Jiangsu and places like Wuxi and Nanjing were fundamentally worlds apart. If you had gone to work in Wuxi or similar places at the beginning of the last century and heard someone with a pure Jiangsu accent working alongside you, don't be surprised; most likely, they are from northern Jiangsu. It's not the fault of northern Jiangsu people; they have no choice but to work all over the place to earn a living and support their families. Poverty is not the fault of the people.
