Well they do. L, you're actually correct. Because their female infanticide has worked too well, most men in the countryside can not manage to get a wife so they have to purchase a wife from the human smuggler. These smugglers get their girls by going to the poor villages in neighbouring countries and tricking the girls there to go with them for high paying job in the city.
