Chapter 2 The New Home
A medium-sized magic bus passed through the newly built reinforced concrete bridge that was more than 100 meters long and 10 meters wide across the Sandy River, and arrived at a place two kilometers away from the north gate of Bangta City. Stop at the newly built station and checkpoint. |
Sai Wei stared at a pair of bright blue eyes with bright blue pupils, staring at the bright and tidy car window. Although the crowds were surging, it seemed to be in order, and there was no cluttered station, and his face was full of excitement.
It took four full days to travel from his hometown in the north of the Kingdom, first in a horse-drawn carriage, and later on a magic locomotive. After a long journey of thousands of kilometers, he came to the city of Bangta, which his sister had described countless times. Worried about whether I will adapt to life here.
But just passing the incomparably magnificent and magnificent bridge just now has opened Seve's eyes, and he instantly feels that he is very lucky to be able to come to such a city.
And when he saw the huge station in front of him, not only had he never seen it, but he had never even thought about it, and seeing the medium-sized freight locomotives passing in and out, Sevi felt that this Bangta city was worthy of what his sister said. The most advanced super city that is even an era ahead of other places.
Even the city of Anvilmar, where he only stayed last night, in Seve's opinion, is just a little more prosperous, but in terms of the shock it gave him, it was far behind the city of Bangta in front of him.
Whether it's the flat road extending in all directions outside the station, or the various magical locomotives flowing on the road, it all shows that this is an alternative city that is completely different from other places.
And what makes Sai Wei feel more obvious is that the people here seem to be in high spirits and full of energy. Moving like the wind. Far from being as lifeless as his hometown and the people he saw along the way. It looks like a "lost soul".
Well, the description of "lost soul" was said by my sister. Sevi didn't understand it before, but now he saw the people in Banta City, but he instantly understood the meaning.
"Hey, Sevi, why are you in a daze, get out of the car soon." The parents beside him had already got up and prepared to get out of the car. Seeing that Sevi was still looking out of the car window, he patted him and urged him.
Sai Wei let out an oh and jumped up.
At the age of 18, Sai Wei seemed to have endless energy every day. He snatched their luggage from his parents, carried it on his back, jumped out of the car, and trotted forward to check The sister who exited ran away.
The prosecutor is patiently explaining: "Miss Akali, you are an employee of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, so you don't need to undergo special inspections. But your parents and younger brother have no record of living in Bangta City before, so they You must accept the corresponding inspection. Please understand."
Akali raised her eyebrows: "Why? They are my family members, I can prove them, why do I need to be checked? Isn't this superfluous? There was no such regulation last year."
This time she managed to persuade her parents to bring her younger brother to emigrate from her hometown. She thought that she could easily settle down in Bangta City and live a comfortable and comfortable life. Overcoming such obstacles, I couldn't help being a little angry.
"This is a new regulation promulgated by the city lord this year, and this checkpoint was built for this reason." The prosecutor knew from the identity certificate submitted by Akali that she was a senior researcher at the Magic Research Institute of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Very polite, still very patient in explaining. "It's not deliberately targeting anyone, it's just for better statistics of the foreign population in Bangta City and for easy management. I think Miss Akali, a wise magician like you, must be able to understand it?"
Hearing that the prosecutor called herself a "wise magician" and her attitude was always respectful, Akali naturally couldn't continue to get angry. After thinking about it, she spread her hands and said, "Okay, what do you want to check? Please hurry up." Son, I have to take them home to rest."
"Well, please wait a moment."
In fact, this so-called inspection is nothing more than a slight inspection of the carry-on luggage, and then ask the person to prove their birth certificate to confirm whether there is a history of working or living in Bangta City before. The overall process is very simple.
It took less than five minutes for Akali's family to finish the examination.
Apart from Akali, there are not many people who have the confidence to question the prosecutor face to face, so in fact, it was Akali and his group who delayed the travel of the people behind.
But seeing that the prosecutors were polite to Akali, others naturally understood that Akali's status might not be low, and no one complained.
When the family walked out of the station, Sevi glanced back at the crowd at the checkout exit, then at Akali, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Sister, I thought you were bragging before, but I didn't expect you to be bragging when you were in Bangalore." Tacheng is really a big shot, even this prosecutor is so polite to you."
Akali giggled: "I'm not a big shot, I'm just in the honor of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. If you want to talk about a big shot, you'll know what a real big shot is when you see President Xu and His Royal Highness .”
Sevi's eyes lit up immediately: "Can I see President Xu and His Royal Highness? That's great!"
On the contrary, Akali was a little hesitant: "It...seeing President Xu should be fine, but Her Royal Highness...it's hard to say."
Sai Wei was slightly disappointed, but immediately became excited again: "Even if I only see President Xu, he is my idol! I have long wanted to see him with my own eyes!"
Akali smiled slightly: "Okay, President Xu is still easy to meet. If you want to see him, I will take you to the Chamber of Commerce tomorrow, and you should be able to meet him. As for now, let's go home and rest quickly. Mom and Dad are very tired."
"En!" Sai Wei nodded vigorously, tightened his luggage, looked around, but was a little confused. "Sister, where are you going?"
"Where to go, the house I bought is several kilometers away from here, it's no problem for you to walk there, do you still want your parents to walk there too?" Akali glared at him.
"Then what to do?"
"Wait." Akali left the three of them behind and came to an open space outside the station.
There are several medium-sized passenger magic locomotives parked here. See Akali coming over. A middle-aged woman greeted her immediately.
"Miss, would you like to rent a car? Come and take my car. As long as it is within the range of Bangta City, we can go anywhere as you like."
Akali glanced at a sign hanging on the medium-sized passenger magic locomotive behind her, and asked, "Is it the car of the Mercado Chamber of Commerce?"
"Yes, yes, we are the cars of the Mercadu Chamber of Commerce. The cars of our Chamber of Commerce are all of good reputation, and there will never be any problems." The middle-aged woman nodded repeatedly.
"Fine. I'll rent one."
"Rent one?" The middle-aged woman was taken aback: "Miss, are you going to rent a whole car?"
"That's right."
Upon hearing this answer, the middle-aged woman's expression immediately became more respectful.
"Ma'am, where are you going?"
"It's not far away, it's the Chenxi Community in Xincheng District."
"Chenxi Community?" The middle-aged woman gasped, and looked at Akali in surprise, her eyes were a little weird, but there was an extremely exaggerated smile on her face. "It turned out to be from Chenxi Community, no wonder no wonder."
Akali didn't bother to pay attention to the lust hidden in her smile, turned around and greeted her parents and her younger brother Sai Wei to get into the car together, and bypassed the old city of Bangta City. Run towards the Chenxi high-end villa residential area on the bank of the Sandy River in the new city to the west of the old city.
While sitting in the car, Akali's parents and Sai Wei were already looking at the scene outside the car with expressions of surprise. And when the magic locomotive drove into the Chenxi community, the three of them were even more shocked.
With an expression of disbelief, Akali's mother pulled Akali and asked, "My dear daughter, the newly bought home you mentioned should be here, right? How much would such a beautiful house cost?" ?”
Akali smiled slightly, patted the back of her hand, and comforted her: "Mom, don't worry about the money, just live here with peace of mind. Don't worry, I can earn thousands of gold coins every year now. Buying such a A house is nothing."
Although I heard Akali mention her current income a long time ago, this amount is too far away for her father, causing them to have no sense of reality at all, thinking that Akali is just comforting them, or simply boast.
And now, seeing the houses in person, they really started to think about what Akali had said.
Earn thousands of gold coins a year? Is this too exaggerated?
One must know that the total annual income of more than one hundred households in their village might only be thousands of gold coins!
A moment later, the medium-sized passenger magic locomotive stopped in front of a three-story villa near the river bank.
Akali took out five gold coins and threw them to the middle-aged woman who was driving, jumped out of the car first, came to the gate of the villa, opened her arms and smiled at her parents and Saiwei: "Mom and Dad, Saiwei, this is our New home!"
Akali's parents and Sai Wei got out of the car, and stared blankly at the luxurious villa in front of them that looked extremely grand, extremely gorgeous and exquisite, and covered an area of more than 500 square meters. They couldn't bear to blink for a long time. Eye.
After a while, Akali's mother asked nah na: "Daughter... this... this... is this really your house?"
Akali smiled and shook her head: "No, mom, you are wrong, this is not my house, but our house. Because our family will live here and live here."
Akali's mother stared blankly at the villa for a while, tears welled up in her eyes, and choked up, "I... I thought... I thought I would wander outside in the future, but... I didn't expect... I thought To be able to live in such a beautiful house is really... really..."
Akali's father embraced his wife's shoulders, nodded to Akali, and said in a deep voice, "Akali, you have worked hard."
Seeing her parents like this, Akali suddenly felt the bridge of her nose sore, and a few tears gushed out of her eyes involuntarily.
Only Sai Wei was careless, without any sadness at all, but full of excitement and joy.
"Dad, mom, sister, why are you crying? We should be happy now that we live in such a big and beautiful house."
Akali's father wiped the corners of his mouth and sighed: "We just think about settling here in the future and leaving our hometown, and we are a little bit emotional."
Saiwei curled his lips: "There's nothing to be emotional about. We left that broken place because we couldn't live on."
After all, without waiting for any reaction from his parents and Akali, Seve rushed straight into the villa.
Seeing his impatient look, Akali's father sighed, and then smiled.
"Yeah, I can't go on living there anyway, so there's nothing to miss. Let's go, let's take a look at our new home!"
