Chapter 163 China Taken Away

Time flies, and now it is the 1990s, a time of great progress and prosperity. China has long since emerged from that gloomy era.

Everywhere you look on the streets, you see stylish men and women with beautiful makeup and bright smiles.

Skyscrapers are everywhere, asphalt roads lead to almost every household, the number of cars on the streets has increased, and every now and then a few white-collar workers rush to work on flying boards.

"Who would have dared to imagine such a life more than ten years ago?"

The old men sitting around the big tree smiled and subtly outwitted their old friend, then happily took a sip of tea.

"Who says otherwise? Before ten o'clock, this old man was still munching on wild vegetable dumplings. Look at me now, with more meat than I can finish and a little wine. This kind of life is worth more than gold!"

In just over a decade, the entire country of China has almost completely changed.

The old, dilapidated houses have been replaced by various modern buildings, with skyscrapers appearing one after another. What's even more surprising is that the fastest-growing sector is technology.

Today in 1990.

On the ground, there are not only cars, but also various other means of transportation; in the sky, there are not only airplanes and birds, but also white-collar workers who ride on sleds to get to work on time.

It seems that the technological level of the entire country of China has been accelerated, growing at an astonishing pace.

Cleaning robots can be seen everywhere on the streets, gliding their chubby bodies and sweeping up the garbage on the ground. Occasionally, someone will throw garbage on the ground, and the robot will chase after them and talk about the benefits of garbage decomposition. Over time, the number of people littering has become very small.

There are dedicated delivery robots for express delivery and dedicated food delivery robots. It can be said that robots are doing most of the work in the entire service industry.

A patrol team of robots would occasionally drift overhead, and under the radar scan, no crime could hide.

"If you ask me, Shengshi Group really deserves credit; they're truly impressive!"

The old man gave a thumbs-up, his tone full of praise.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the boss of this large corporation is a woman; her vision and character are unparalleled, surpassing even some men.

The roads in remote mountainous areas were paved with their own money, and nearly half of the properties outside the Third Ring Road in Beijing are under Shengshi's name, not to mention other cities. It is said that they have an astonishing number of properties. Their largest and most advanced technology company is a company that everyone is desperate to get into.

"Old Wu, I heard your grandson got into Shengshi? How's it going? Did he get in?"

The old man, called Old Wu, smiled broadly, his face beaming with pride.

"They're inside! And it's the head office! My grandson told me he was personally tested by his mysterious boss... cough cough."

Overwhelmed with excitement, Old Wu choked on his own saliva and coughed violently, his eyes reddening.

"Grandpa, have some water."

A sweet, childlike voice rang out behind the old men, and they all turned around.

A little girl wearing a pink cloak and white leather boots, her face made even more lovely by the snow-white fox fur, blinked her big, grape-like eyes at the elderly people. Her little hands, wearing pink plush gloves, were holding a water bottle, and she was trying to stand on tiptoe to bring it to Grandpa Wu's lips so he could drink.

The old men were completely charmed, while inwardly cursing their sons to the core.

He can't even give birth to a granddaughter for him, what use is this son!

"My dear girl, Grandpa doesn't want to drink. Where are your parents? How can they let you run around alone like this?"

I wonder whose pampered little girl this is; she's so beautiful.

The little girl smiled, her eyebrows arched, revealing two rows of tiny white teeth like grains of rice.

"Dad is shopping with Mom."

As soon as she finished speaking, her little body was lifted up and held in a familiar, soft, and fragrant embrace.
