Men are superior to women: the heartthrob in Yunqi

It was just dawn and the town was quiet, with only a few breakfast shops busy preparing for business.

It took Mu Yao nearly two hours to reach Yangming Town, and her feet were sore from being rubbed.

He lifted up his gown and saw that there was indeed a big blister on his little toe.

The pearl shoes were so fragile that she couldn't help but regret not getting another pair to wear.

Looking at the wonton shop not far ahead, I suddenly felt hungry.

The old man selling wontons had already started boiling water. The wontons stacked on the stove were shaped like fish tails, small and exquisite. This shape was a bit like the bubble wontons she liked to eat.

The skin of the wontons was crystal clear, revealing the pink filling. Mu Yao was so hungry that she couldn't move her feet. She tried hard to guess in her mind whether the wontons were filled with shrimp or pork.

The wonton seller felt the burning gaze, looked up and saw the "little clay man" standing not far away, smiled and waved, "Little man, come here."

"Young Master? Are you talking about me?" Mu Yao was confused. Did she look like a man?

Without caring about anything else, she immediately trotted forward.

I saw the old man skillfully pour a tray of small wontons into the pot, roll them in the hot soup a few times and then take them out of the pot.

"Try it." The old man handed it to Mu Yao with a smile.

Although Mu Yao wanted to eat, she struggled internally and finally declined the offer: "Uncle, I don't have any money." Her voice was as thin as a mosquito. This was the first time she had worried about money since she was a child.

"No problem, no problem. Young Master, I'm your first customer today, so I won't charge you. Just consider it a good start."

Mu Yao took the bowl of hot wontons, her nose sour: "Thank you, sir. What's your name?"

"My last name is Niu, and I'm the second child in my family. Everyone calls me Uncle Niu."

"Thank you, Uncle Niu." Mu Yao held the fragrant wontons, sniffed, and started eating in big mouthfuls.

The wonton soup was delicious and the meat was tender. She didn't expect that a bowl of ordinary street food could be so amazing, not inferior to the chicken sauce wontons she had eaten before.

Uncle Niu saw that although the young man in front of him was dressed in shabby clothes, his temperament was very elegant, especially his eyes were stunningly beautiful. His many years of experience in judging people told him that this young man had a story.

"Young man, where are you from?" Uncle Niu asked, trying to start a conversation.

Mu Yao was startled and replied, "I came from another place to make a living. I didn't expect to meet thieves on the way. All my money and luggage were robbed. So I thought I would come to the town to try my luck and find some work."

When Uncle Niu heard about Mu Yao's experience, he couldn't help but sympathize with him. "Then why don't you go home?"

"Uncle Niu, my hometown is far from here. My family didn't agree with me leaving home. I tried so hard to convince them to let me leave home to make a living. I can't just go back like this." She lowered her head. She couldn't help but think of the Rofus Hospital that would soon belong to her, and her heart ached.

Uncle Niu felt more and more sympathetic to the young man in front of him. He also left his hometown to make a living and return home with wealth. He didn't expect to settle down in Yangming Town and sell wontons for decades. Which good man doesn't want to save money to marry a wife and have children and grandchildren? Thinking that he is still single after being over 60, he feels ashamed!

With his conditions, he could only save five hundred yuan a month after deducting the booth fee, costs and rent. Which girl would be willing to marry him and suffer with him? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh. He fumbled in his pocket with his right hand, counted out two hundred yuan and handed it to Mu Yao.

"Young man, here is some money, you can take it first. Our Yangming Town is very close to Shangjing, just a few streets away. It is not worse than Shangjing, there are many opportunities here. Many shops in the town are hiring, you can go and try."

Uncle Niu really comes to my rescue!

Her chest was sore and swollen. Seeing the old man in his coarse linen clothes, she thought that the wonton business must be very profitable. She didn't want to cause trouble for the old man, but she had to accept the reality.

She needs money so badly right now!

Mu Yao stopped being hypocritical and took the money with both hands. She bowed to Uncle Niu and said solemnly, "Uncle Niu, thank you for helping me out of my urgent need. I am Mu Yao, and I will repay you for your kindness in the future."

Uncle Niu smiled and waved his hand: "Silly child, it's just a small amount of money, just consider it a good relationship between us."

Uncle Niu and Mu Yao got along very well, and they chatted for an hour without realizing it. Mu Yao also gained a new understanding of the world.

This continent is called Yunqi Continent, and it has more than a dozen countries, big and small. The town of Yangming where she is now belongs to Dayun Country. Dayun Country is strong, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.

There are three other powerful countries like Dayun in Yunqi, namely Yunlan in the east, Nanyue in the south and Beiming in the north.

There is no doubt that the four major powers dominate the entire continent and check and balance each other. Although there have been occasional frictions on the border over the years, it is still relatively peaceful.

Yunqi Continent is rich in resources and has countless fertile fields. It is said that the ratio of men to women was normal a few hundred years ago. At that time, most people had good looks, and it could be said that it was a land of outstanding people and beautiful scenery.

Later, the population grew excessively, and resources gradually became scarce. In order to grab limited resources, countries frequently went to war. The wars lasted for hundreds of years, resulting in a sharp drop in the number of males and a gradual imbalance in the ratio of men to women.

The state called on the people to give birth to more boys to strengthen the military and introduced various incentive policies to benefit the people. In the era of war and chaos, this undoubtedly fostered the bad habit of giving birth to boys to get subsidies and killing baby girls.

Over time, the number of men increased, while the number of women decreased.

Everything has its cause and effect. By the time the people in power realize it, it is too late to reverse the situation. Women have become more and more precious in this continent.

In order to pass down the family lineage, people mostly choose to marry their relatives. After several generations, their appearance gradually changed. Strangely enough, the men on this continent became more and more handsome, while the women became more and more ordinary. This is probably the natural selection of the strong.

Today, the male-to-female ratio in Yunqi has reached five to one, and is showing a trend of expansion.

Various countries have introduced various preferential subsidy policies to favor women, among which the most preferential one is that women can receive two taels of silver every month from birth to marriage, which will be deposited by local government into a special account in the government and withdrawn after marriage. This is to encourage women to marry as soon as possible after they reach the age of 15 and have children as soon as possible.

In Yunqi, one woman can marry multiple wives and one man can marry multiple wives. At present, there are more monks than porridge, and polygamy is rare. Even the current emperor only has two concubines in his harem.

Nowadays, it is a great blessing for an adult man to marry a wife. If he can have a daughter, it will be a great honor for his ancestors and the pride of the whole clan.

There is no doubt that women are extremely happy in Yunqi. They don't have to rush around for a living, nor do they have to suffer for their studies.

They have an even greater advantage in choosing a spouse. Most men are handsome, and even the most ordinary ones are considered good-looking. After marriage, the husband's family's property will be verified by the government and one-third will be given to the woman. If the couple has a daughter, the husband's family will give another one-third to the woman. If the couple divorces in the future, the property given to the woman does not have to be returned.

Mu Yao was extremely shocked. Yunqi Continent was truly a paradise for women.
