Qu Ruiqing often wonders why the Empire looks down on the people of the Swamp District, yet continues to use the things they produce. Why can't they do without the goods made by the people of the Swamp District? Many parts are produced by the people of the Swamp District and then transported to the Empire.
She once saw a video call between the head of a Swamp District factory and the person responsible for dealing with the Empire. The head of the Swamp District factory was bowing and scraping with a forced smile, reporting the number of delivered products. The representative from the Empire didn't even look him in the eye; the disdainful expression suggested that even a glance was a contamination.
After the people of the Swamp District delivered a large amount of products, the Empire's representative gave them the exchanged materials. The head of the Swamp District thanked profusely, with a smile.
