Wuzhen was located in the middle of a rugged ravine. It was a very remote and barren place.
It was different from Xinjiang Town where Yun Jian was reborn. The wealth gap between Wuzhen and Xinjiang Town was huge.
Compared to Xinjiang Town, Wuzhen could not even be considered a town.
Wuzhen was surrounded by mountains and the roads were rugged. The people relied on their own sowing and harvesting to survive.
There were no large textile factories in Wuzhen. Just imagine, from Wuzhen to the remote suburbs of City W, it took three hours by car. No large company would choose to invest in Wuzhen.
This was truly a poor mountainous area.
How poor was it?
The people here, be it the elderly or the children, had never walked out of the mountains in their lives.
The transportation here was very inconvenient. Occasionally, there would be people who would go to the city to collect on Mondays, but they would drive vehicles like tractors and tricycles.
A normal bus would take three hours. Driving such a vehicle to the city would take at least two to three times longer than the bus.
Moreover, taking a tractor to the city was expensive.
The poverty here was beyond imagination.
No news report could fully describe the hardships of the people at the bottom of society.
Yun Jian had thought that Xinjiang Town was already considered poor. After all, to her, who used to be at the top of the world, Xinjiang Town was a stark contrast.
However, in comparison to Xinjiang Town, Wu Town paled in comparison.
"Oh my god, are we really going to stay here for the next seven days?"
"This house is made of mud, right? What if the house collapses in the middle of the night? We'll die! "
"And this road is full of potholes. There's not even a cement floor!"
The students exclaimed when they saw the scene before them.
Although he was prepared, he was still shocked when he saw the scene in front of him.
How was this a house?
The houses in Wuzhen were all made of mud. Occasionally, those who were better off lived in stone houses.
As for a brick house, to the people of Wuzhen, that was simply impossible!
"Alright, I'll bring you to Wuzhen's mayor. He'll arrange a place for you to stay." The only teacher leading the group led the students across the potholes of the mud towards the mayor's house.
Soon, the students were all settled down.
Wuzhen was a town.
There are also villages here.
Some of the students were taken to the village children's homes.
Wuzhen had a combined primary school and junior high school. If the children who lived in the village did not live in the school, they had to walk for about two hours every day to get to Wuzhen.
The distance from Wuzhen to the outskirts of W City was far enough. Those poor children from the mountainous areas lived even deeper into the mountains than Wuzhen.
Yun Jian followed him for about two hours on the mountain road. Finally, she was taken to a village that was two hours away from Wuzhen.
Some of the students refused to go to the village no matter what, so the mayor arranged for them to live with the best families in Wuzhen.
But to be honest, the family conditions in this place were not that different.
Of course, Wuzhen could not accommodate so many people, so the mayor led Yun Jian and the others to Dali Village, which was the nearest village to Wuzhen but was still a two-hour walk away.
It was not easy to walk at night, but with a lantern, they could still walk.
"I can't walk anymore, I can't walk anymore," Liang Xiumin panted. She could not keep up.
The extra rooms in Wuzhen had already been taken by other students. Liang Xiumin was complaining about her father the whole way. She complained as she walked.
"Don't talk when you walk, or you'll be more tired." Yun Jian helped Liang Xiumin walk up a steep slope.
"Little girl, you know so much at such a young age. It's rare!" The mayor led the way with a lantern and could not help but exclaim.
College students nowadays were spoiled. After walking so many mountain roads, it was normal for them to be like Liang Xiumin.
There were not many who could endure hardship like this little girl.
