Chapter 1647: Chapter 1647: Doesn’t Want to Become a Brood Sow
She felt a bit sympathetic towards Madam Roland. She had been here for two months and hadn’t noticed this couple having children; initially, she thought they were Dinks.
It’s likely Madam Roland never had the opportunity to bear children.
Madam Roland was somewhat envious: "So, you don’t know how lucky you are to have that black hair, how much sensation and frenzy it would cause, and how many men would want you, wanting to have children with you. If you don’t want trouble, you better hide it well."
Jun Yiyi’s face turned pale. She didn’t consider this a fortunate thing at all.
She didn’t expect that such ordinary black hair could cause so much trouble. It’s better to hide it; she didn’t want to be pursued by inexplicable men, nor become a breeding pig.
The very thought made her shiver. She just wanted to study how to return to her original world and didn’t wish to stir up any major trouble.
Once they arrived at the supermarket, she’d have to buy a bottle of hair dye and quickly dye it golden.
After dressing up neatly, the two finally stepped out.
The two boarded a flying train and arrived at a nearby city.
Only when Jun Yiyi sat in the train did she realize that "nearby" actually meant several hundred kilometers away, and she couldn’t help but be astonished.
However, it took just over ten minutes to reach, and she finally understood that it really was nearby, faster than a bus traveling ten kilometers.
This was indeed a high-tech society, where trains used special technology to create air currents, suspended in the air, with strong propulsion and high speed, almost like an airplane!
They arrived at Lily City, the capital of Yalan Country, the most densely populated place and the economic and cultural center.
Jun Yiyi gazed at the dazzling and imposing skyscrapers, looking so prosperous from the outside, it was hard to imagine this was a sanctioned nation. Aren’t sanctioned countries all supposed to be backward and impoverished?
Seeing her confusion, Madam Roland sighed: "Can’t tell, can you? Actually, ten years ago, our Yalan Country was among the top three worldwide in per capita living standards, rich in industrial resources, with very developed light industry and strong exports, and the people’s living standards were extremely high. Many from other countries envied us then. But after being sanctioned, our economy regressed twenty-fold in ten years, and now, some people even go hungry because of food shortages."
Jun Yiyi also lamented; such a powerful country, once a paradise, falling to such a state in just ten years, it’s tragic.
"Why were they sanctioned?"
Madam Roland’s eyes turned cold: "Why else? Although Yalan Country is small, it possesses the world’s second-largest reserves of rare minerals and nuclear energy resources. There will always be some envious hegemonic military powers wanting Yalan’s resources. So they claimed Yalan Country, along with a few small countries, was secretly developing banned weapons at overseas bases, and then used their might to coerce the international community into jointly sanctioning Yalan. Aside from the Aus Empire across the ocean, there aren’t many countries that dare support us now."
Aus Empire? It sounds like a good country; Jun Yiyi had a favorable impression of it.
"By the way, I saw on the news a few days ago that the Aus Empire’s councilman’s wife and her son, leading her charity foundation, would arrive in Lily City today and bring lots of supplies. It’s a pity you don’t have an ID card; otherwise, I could take you to the city center to see the councilman’s wife."
Jun Yiyi also found it a pity. It was only after arriving in this world that she realized the importance of an ID card.
This was an era with very strict identity verification. Due to high technology, all identification, as well as a person’s growth records, family, school, and work, were stored in the government’s database.
