My Dragon Baby and Billionaire Husband-Chapter 706: Trouble in Baitown City 1
Si Mingjing fiddled with The Third Eye and said, "When Mommy goes back, she’ll give it to the baby."
Little Princess Su Chaoyang was super excited. "Mommy~~ when are you coming back?"
"It may take a few days; Mommy hasn’t finished her work. Once it’s done, I’ll go back. At home, listen to Grandpa and Grandma, and you can play with your brothers and sisters."
Afterward, Si Mingjing headed to Mengcheng to establish a Blue Eye Sunflower cultivation base. Since she was there on official business, she couldn’t afford any delays. The establishment of a Blue Eye Sunflower cultivation base and the large-scale cultivation of the flower were essential for preparing the proprietary Chinese medicine to treat depression. This would help patients break free from their suffering sooner, a task Si Mingjing had never neglected.
Little Su Chaoyang nodded obediently. "Mommy, I’m super well-behaved~~"
Then, Ye Xinguang and Ye Siyuan continued to take Su Chaoyang to buy clothes and daily necessities, while Si Mingjing and Mo Yinhe went to see the military parade overseen by Bo Leng.
After the military parade concluded, Si Mingjing took a walk around. She discovered that the water temperature and air pressure in Baitown City were more suitable for cultivating Blue Eye Sunflower than in Mengcheng. She decided to establish a Blue Eye Sunflower cultivation base in Baitown City but was temporarily undecided on the specific location.
Fearing that the people of Baitown City might cause trouble, Bo Leng decided to station troops in Baitown City for half a month to comprehensively establish an official and military system loyal to the Mu Continent from top to bottom. Taking full control of Baitown City wasn’t just about stationing troops; it was also about eliminating the citizens’ xenophobia. This wasn’t something that could be achieved overnight; it required time and effort. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
No city’s residents would willingly accept invaders. At this time, the most frequently mentioned term on Baitown City’s social networks was "subjects of a conquered nation."
Mo Yinhe had brought several technicians. While monitoring Baitown City’s network, they compiled the public’s comments from various social platforms that day and listed the most frequently occurring keywords:
NO.1: Subjects of a conquered nation
NO.2: Immigrants
NO.3: Second-class citizens
Panic gripped the people of Baitown City. Everyone felt they would now become second-class citizens of the Mu Continent. Those who could flee had already left Baitown City, while those unwilling or unable to escape felt their future was bleak.
After reading many of the public’s comments, Si Mingjing felt it was necessary to alleviate their panic. Since she had taken possession of Baitown City, its people were now her subjects.
Mo Yinhe sipped his tea, looking thoughtful. "It’s not that there’s no way to eliminate the public’s xenophobia."
"You have a way?"
"You should look into the history of Baitown City." Mo Yinhe glanced at her.
"Isn’t it just a city Gendaya obtained for free?"
"And where did Gendaya get it from for free? Have you looked into that?" Mo Yinhe patiently guided her.
Si Mingjing indeed had someone investigate, and soon Song Yuan sent over the historical data for Baitown City.
Si Mingjing opened the virtual holographic screen, browsing through the history of Baitown City, and mused, "The initial citizens of Baitown City migrated from the Mu Continent?"
Her surprise lasted no more than three seconds before she furrowed her brows and said, "According to the records, the original citizens of Baitown City were Daoist priests and followers expelled from the Mu Continent?
"Back then, metaphysics flourished on the Mu Continent, and many people became Daoists. The development of metaphysics was so rapid that Daoist Temples were almost on par with the Dragon Temple, posing a threat to the Dragon Clan.
"The Grand Priest at the time, to protect the authority of the Dragon Temple, issued a decree to suppress the Daoist Temples and banish Daoists. Many Daoists, finding no place to live on the Mu Continent, left in droves.
"The first group of people who departed the Mu Continent came to Baitown City. As more and more Daoists migrated there, a city-state gradually formed. To seek protection, they willingly pledged allegiance to Gendaya. And so, Gendaya named it Baitown City?"
