After the refugees were sent to the west district, the government no longer cared about them. After a long time, most of them became beggars or petty thieves.
Besides that, another reason why the west district was undeveloped was that it was near the wasteland. The quality of the land was so bad that even weeds were struggling to grow there.
Although there were mountains, no one dared to go there due to the wild beasts. Another reason was that the mountains were the border between the Great Yan Kingdom and the barbarians.
Even if they were lucky enough to avoid the wild beasts, there were countless cases where people met the barbarians lurking in the mountains. When captured, their fate was either to become slaves or become the barbarians' two-legged lambs.
No one was willing to gamble with their lives just for a bite of food. So after years, the mountains became a forbidden place for the locals.
