Chapter 646: 265, damn, being tracked!

The passengers on the plane were mostly getting off at Red Square, so even though they had first-class tickets, they still waited in a long line before they finally exited the airport.

It was now after five in the afternoon; the evening chill was accompanied by a cold breeze, and the streets were filled with people from the Northern Border Country wearing thick clothes, many carrying bottles of wine or vodka.

It was, in a sense, another form of peace and prosperity.

Li Jinwen looked at the bustling city and asked, “Honey, isn’t this country at war?

But it seems hard to tell; everyone’s life appears quite normal.”

Everyone knew that the Northern Border Country was engaged in a war recently, and they had assumed that after landing, they would witness a great deal of chaos.

…

What surprised them, however, was that the country seemed even more peaceful than they had anticipated.

At least on the streets, nothing seemed amiss, and it even seemed no less than some European countries they had visited.

What they didn’t expect was that the people of the Northern Border were not as fiery as the internet portrayed them to be; instead, they were quite amiable, and not everyone on the street had a violent disposition.

At least from their first glance at the city, they did not get that impression.

Before Lin Mo could speak, Li Jinshan said with a smile, “Daughter, you may not be aware, it’s strange about this country, the more it is at war, the better the economy seems to turn around.

Far from declining, it would rise at a rapid pace!”

Hearing this, the faces of the family members all showed curiosity.

In their traditional understanding, if a country was in turmoil, it would inevitably affect all aspects of the country, with the most direct manifestation being economic regression.

It wasn’t because everyone was busy fighting and had no time for the economy, but because when everyone was at war, the country would face condemnation from many nations around the world and would be sanctioned by America for various reasons.

Of course, there were exceptions, such as if the country at war were an ally of America, then perhaps there would be not only no sanctions but also many unforeseen benefits.

However, those countries basically acted on orders from the White Palace, and many of their so-called wars were stirred up by the White Palace.

Lin Mo shrugged and said,”You guys shouldn’t be surprised, what our dad is saying is true.

This country is indeed strange, and the more you delve into it, the more oddities you’ll discover.”

“For instance, the GDP growth of the Northern Border was 0.89 last year but reached 4% this year.”

“Even if compared to our country, even 4% doesn’t seem like much, indeed not as much as what we gain in half a year, but don’t forget, the economy of the Northern Border hadn’t grown by more than 1% in many years, and it’s all thanks to the war that it has grown so fast.”

Li Jinwen asked curiously, “So why does this counterintuitive situation arise?”

The rest of the family turned their gazes to Lin Mo.

Their hotel’s shuttle had yet to arrive, and they had to wait a while longer.

According to what passengers on the plane had said, people from the Northern Border rarely had a sense of time, and delays and lateness were pretty much the norm.

Situations like the hotel’s shuttle waiting in advance at the airport were almost nonexistent there.

Even when that man went on an inspection tour, he could see many employees slacking off, which made it clear how leisurely the people of the Northern Border lived.

As the Lin family walked toward the parking area, Lin Mo spoke while walking, “Actually, what this country lacks the least is resources.

Its richness in resources far surpasses ours, and more importantly, they have a very small population, less than one-tenth of ours.”

“With so many resources, if they sold them all, even at the market’s most common price, it would allow all people of the Northern Border to live well.”

“Unfortunately, some countries don’t want to see a peaceful Northern Border, so sanctions against them have never ceased from the start, and there’s even a growing trend, directly leading to the awkward situation where, despite having resources, they couldn’t sell them.”

“But it’s different when there’s a war.”

“Once a war breaks out, agreements signed during peaceful times can hardly restrain the people of the Northern Border.

They dare to sell weapons and equipment to some unrecognized organizations or even individuals.”

“Of course, these transactions are all secret, and nobody would know about them.

Even if a few traces are left, it’s impossible to investigate any issues.”

“After all, those truly selling those things are nothing more than stooges.

On normal days they make a lot of money, live comfortably, and their families enjoy certain privileges, which are all because if they are ever exposed, they’ll be the ones to blame.”

“Does that make sense to you?”

Li Jinwen didn’t fully understand, but she did grasp the general idea.

After thinking for a moment, she said, “So what you’re saying is that if the war continues indefinitely, this country could potentially become the richest in the world?”

“If that were the case, then this country should be very bellicose.”

Lin Mo shook his head and continued explaining, “You can’t completely say that, because everything has a limit.

Once it reaches that limit, it might bring about many negative effects.”
