Hatred

The various types of people and events that Ren Baqian had seen in this world were limited.

The people he interacted with were basically the aboriginals.

Others whom he met were the foreign merchants in Lan City and those who attended the empress's birthday celebration at the Honglu Bureau.

No matter how poor Lan City was, it was still under the control of the empress. Those merchants who went to Jingyuan Road were mostly from distinguished families, tended to be snobbish, and were not urbanized. As a result, he didn't mingle much with them.

After arriving at Gu City, he didn't venture too far away from his prearranged mansion and saw many shops and stalls of different hues and shades. They were mostly owned by foreign merchants and the remnant citizens of Hao Nation. There were hardly any aboriginals.
