Chapter 32 Immigration

As His Majesty the King and His Highness of the Kingdom of Lampari, the matters considered and discussed are of course major events closely related to the entire Kingdom of Lampari.

But for Dad Alfaria and his son Yachi, these big things have nothing to do with them. They only care about one issue at the moment, that is, their life in this small family.

In fact, to be fair, it would be much better for Afariya's father's family to go to the past few years.

Although Dad Alfari still goes to the mountains to hunt as before, he has no choice but to use the hunted prey to exchange for some money and replenish his family's income. Every time he just wants to improve his life and use the delicious food in the mountains to celebrate the teeth.

Because now Afariya's father is young and has long no longer needed to rely on his hunting income to support his life.

The three sons and two daughters of Afariya's father all entered factories run by chambers of commerce in Bonta City. On average, each person can get a monthly salary of more than ten gold coins every month, and the monthly income of the family even exceeds seventy gold coins.

So much money, but their family may not be able to make it all year round.

As his income increased, his father Afariya's life naturally improved a lot.

Not only did the prey that Dad Alfari hunted was just for the dentistry, but the small thatched house was now overthrown directly. Like other families in the village, it built and launched the Amri Chamber of Commerce, which was recognized by everyone in Bangta City, with a brick and concrete structure.

At the same time, the home also has various home magic machinery, making the whole life countless times more comfortable than before.

However, this good life disappeared suddenly with the change of the city lord of Bangta City.

Although I would not have returned to the predicament of having to fill my stomach in those years, the new city lord implemented a policy of suppressing business and promoting agriculture, many chambers of commerce in Bonta City either moved away or closed their factories directly. As a result, three of Alfari's father's five children lost their jobs, and the remaining two ran to Luoyu Valley, dozens of kilometers away before finding jobs again.

Now the monthly income of their whole family has changed from more than 70 gold coins before to only more than 20 gold coins now, which has instantly shrunk by more than half, and has immediately made the whole family's life difficult.

Of course, this income is actually much higher than in those years. But now people's living standards are much higher than before. Suddenly, the living standards of more than 70 gold coins per month have been reduced to more than 20 gold coins, which is undoubtedly extremely difficult.

The key is that in the past two years, Afariya's father and his family took advantage of the huge increase in their income and were busy getting to know the marriage of their second son, and at the same time they let their two daughters marry, which was equivalent to suddenly turning from one family to several families, and the burden was much heavier than before.

The more important question is that the youngest son Yaqi is over 18 years old this year, and according to the tradition in the countryside, if he doesn't get married before the age of 20, he will be gossiped behind his back.

Yaqi, the boy, got along well with a girl from the village. The two got along very well.

After seeing this girl, Afariya's father was very satisfied. He originally planned to arrange a marriage for the two this year or next year as planned.

However, the girl's parents put forward the conditions at this time, requiring Yaqi to prepare a new house when getting married, and to buy all kinds of home magic machinery in the new house - they must be Xinfei brand.

In theory, this requirement cannot be considered too much, because now everyone's lives have improved, and girls in Bonta City will have similar requirements when they get married.

However, the Newica Chamber of Commerce where Yachi worked before moved directly to Canberra City, which is more than 100 kilometers away from Bonta City. Yachi was unwilling to follow him, which caused him to lose his job. How could he take out such a large amount of money to meet these requirements now?

Afariya's father and Yaqi estimated that if they wanted to meet the requirements of the girl's parents, they would have to take out at least 200 gold coins.

Although Afariya's father's family has had a lot of income in the past two years, they are all used to improve their family's life, but they do not have much savings.

So the marriage between Yaqi and the girl could only be temporarily stalemate, and Yaqi's mood was getting worse day by day.

Looking at Yaqi sitting opposite him silently, Dad Alfalia remembered the youngest son who was always energetic and laughing. He sighed in his heart, glanced at the southwest direction, made up his mind and said, "Yaqi, this is not a solution. You have to think about how to solve it?"

Yaqi smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "How to solve it? Our family doesn't have that much money." After saying that, a look of pain flashed across his face and continued: "Or forget it, Leya's parents have to raise such high conditions. At worst, I won't marry her. Anyway, there are so many girls in this world, so I'll look for them again in the future."

"Don't say stupid things!" Afariya's father immediately rebuked him. "Leya is a good girl, and the conditions proposed by her parents cannot be said to be high. After all, they are also for Leya to live a good life in the future. This way, Yaqi, you'd better not stay in the village, go out, go somewhere else, find a good job, earn some money, and come back to marry Leya."

Yaqi was stunned: "How can that work? The eldest brother and the second brother have moved out, so I must stay and take care of you and your mother."

Afariya's father glared: "Your mother and I have hands and feet, what do you want you to take care of? Listen to me, leave here and find a good job. When you have money, Leya's parents will feel at ease to hand over Leya to you when they come back."

When Yaqi saw the expression on Afariya's father's face, he knew that this was a sign that his father had made up his mind. He knew that his rebuttal would only make him angry. After thinking about it, he smiled bitterly: "But Dad, where should I find a job? Now the chambers of commerce in Luoyugu are already full of people. Even if I want to go now, I can't find a suitable job? Besides, the salary of more than ten gold coins a month is not good. It will take at least two years to save more than two hundred gold coins."

"It's not possible to fall into the rain valley, you have to go further." Dad Alfari shook his head.

Yaqi was stunned: "Dad, you don't want me to work in the Hei Mi Wasteland, right? Although the salaries given by those chambers of commerce are quite high, it is the orc territory, which is very dangerous."

"Of course I don't want you to go to such a dangerous place. I mean, a little further away, is the Principality of Stantin." said Alfaria's father.

Yaci was completely stunned this time, and after a while, he said incredible: "Dad, you actually agreed to me to go to the Principality of Stantin? Even if you go back and forth, it will take as long as a week. If I go, it will be difficult for me to come back in the future. If something happens to you and your mother, I can't catch up even if I come back."

Dad Alfariya smiled and said, "Who said you were only allowed to go alone? Tell you, your mother and I will go this time. Haven't you seen the joint recruitment notice issued by the New Flight Chamber of Commerce and the Cantona Chamber of Commerce in the Bonta Daily? As long as our experienced farmer is willing to move to the land leased by the New Flight Chamber of Commerce in the Principality of Stantin, the New Flight Chamber of Commerce will directly subsidize us 100 gold coins. Then, as an employee of the Cantona Chamber of Commerce, you can contract and plant farmland. Not only can you keep the food you need every year, but you can also get an annual salary of 100 gold coins from the Cantona Chamber of Commerce. Just your mother and I can earn 200 gold coins a year."

"What about me?" Yaqi asked back. "What am I going to do?"

"Let you read more about the Bonta Daily, you don't listen." Afariya's father glanced at his young son with contempt. "The New Air Chamber of Commerce will also open mines and build canned fruit factories in the Principality of Stantin. As long as you are willing to go, are you afraid that you will not be able to find a job?"

Yaqi thought about it carefully, couldn't help swallowing and asked Dad Alfari with some difficulty: "But Dad... In this way, wouldn't our family move out of here? Go to the Principality of Stantin?"

"What are you worried about? Our house is still here, who dares to demolish it?" Dad Alfalia looked at the direction of Bonta City and snorted coldly: "If it weren't for the new damn city lord, we wouldn't have to move. But this damn guy made us unable to survive. What are we still here to do?"

Yaqi stared at Dad Alfariya in a daze, as if he had known him for the first time.

For the first time, he discovered that his father was over fifty years old this year, but he was more adventurous than his young man who was less than twenty years old.

It takes so much courage and perseverance to leave Bangta City, which has lived for decades, and run to another country that is even close to thousands of kilometers away to start living again.

If it weren't for the fact that I was worried about the marriage with Leya, I'm afraid my father wouldn't have made such a decision, right?

Thinking of this, Yaqi couldn't help feeling a lot of guilt, but then he thought of a very important question.

"But Dad, our family has moved to the Principality of Stantin. What should I do if Leya? We are not here anymore. Leya and their family might ask her to find someone else to marry."

Dad Alfariya smiled and said, "What? Boy, you still keep Leya all the time, but you haven't even found such an important thing. Tell you, I talked to Leya's father yesterday, but his father told me that he had decided to go to the Principality of Stantin to farm for the New Air Chamber of Commerce and Cantona Chamber of Commerce, and asked me if I wanted to go together."

Yaqi's eyes lit up: "Does their family want to move there too?"

"Leya's father hasn't confirmed whether the whole family has moved there, because Leya told her father that she wants to stay with you. Hey, boy, you just want to say no to a girl like you. It's really ungrateful."

"Ah?" Yaqi was stunned. Looking at Dad Alfaria with a hint of crampyness on his face, a hint of shame and anger appeared in his heart in addition to sweetness.
