Chapter 56

In the past few years, whenever the New Year just passed, countless people from other cities flocked to Bangta City looking for work.

The total number of these people will even exceed the original population of Bangta City by several times, so during this time of year, Bangta City will be crowded with people everywhere.

However, after the New Year passed this year, the people of Bangta City were surprised to find that the number of people coming to Bangta City from other places seemed to have decreased a lot.

Although there will still be batches of people from other places transported by the passenger magic locomotive of Felson Cars and Horses every day, but the total number is much less than in previous years.

The huge gap even made the residents of Bangta City who were familiar with the situation in the past few years feel that this year's Bangta City is so deserted.

And when the winter passed day by day with the new year, the people of Bangta City discovered another thing that surprised them.

Originally, due to the influx of people in Bangta City in the past few years, coupled with the increase in people's income, major chambers of commerce have opened countless new shops in the city to meet the needs of these extra people.

But now, the shops in the city have closed their doors and announced their closure.

At first, it was only the Amley Chamber of Commerce that announced the closure of a housing sales center set up outside the city, and then the Armani Chamber of Commerce also announced the closure of two finished clothing stores in the city. After that, the number of chambers of commerce announcing the closure of their stores increased rapidly.

People in Bangta City even go to bed and wake up every night. When they go outside the next day, they will find that several shops have been closed on the street.

If there were fewer people on the street, which made the people of Bangta City feel a little deserted, then the successive closing of shops and businesses further deepened this feeling in everyone's hearts.

As if in the blink of an eye. Bangta City, which was even more prosperous than Anweimar City, suddenly became defeated.

If this trend continues, it may not be long before Bangta City will return to the remote and quiet town it used to be.

Although there are many people in Banta City who are dissatisfied with the fact that Banta City has become too lively these years and has lost its former peace and tranquility. But everyone must admit that only the prosperous Bangta City can improve the lives of everyone in Bangta City.

It is good to return to the peace and tranquility of the past, but it has made the city of Bangta impoverished again, people have lost their good jobs in the past, and life has become difficult again. That will definitely not be accepted by anyone. But whether you are willing to accept it is one thing, and whether you can stop this change is another.

And the fact before everyone is that this trend seems to be irreversible, and Bangta City... seems to have gone further and further on the way back.

Looking at the shops on the street with the emblems of the familiar chambers of commerce announcing their closure, only the flags of the ten chambers of commerce designated by the Magic Industry Administration are still flying everywhere in Bangta City. The people in Bangta City looked at these flags with a hint of resentment involuntarily.

If it wasn't for these guys, how could the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce leave Bangta City?

If Xinfei Chamber of Commerce did not leave Bangta City, how could Bangta City become what it is now?

These resentful people not only included many ordinary people who had excellent jobs before but lost their jobs because of the ten chambers of commerce, but also included many nobles, large and small, in the city.

Originally, these nobles only needed to invest in any chamber of commerce in Bangta City, and they could get a lot of dividends every year. Live a comfortable life.

And these ten chambers of commerce came and squeezed out the other chambers of commerce, causing these nobles to lose huge benefits.

If we compare the degree of resentment. These nobles are probably much deeper than ordinary civilians.

The current situation is not optimistic, these nobles can only hide their resentment in their hearts.

If one waits for the right time, these resentments will definitely erupt.

And unlike these nobles who have resentment but dare not vent it because of their noble status, ordinary civilians resent their resentment, but for them, the most important thing is still their own life.

Now those ten chambers of commerce monopolize most of the job opportunities in the city. However, they uniformly kept their salaries extremely low, and their work intensity was much stronger than that of the various chambers of commerce in Bangta City before.

If you continue to stay in Bangta City. Obviously it is impossible to get a job as satisfying as before.

So after much deliberation, the people of Bangta City finally made a decision. That is to get out of Bangta City and seek satisfactory work elsewhere.

In fact, before that, when the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce went to the Principality of Standing to open the Xinfei Farm, it had already recruited many old farmers from Bangta City, and many old farmers moved there with their entire families.

Coupled with the fact that they come into contact with a large number of people who come to Bangta City from other places to find jobs every year, so for the civilians of Bangta City, it is actually not a difficult decision to leave Bangta City.

The first month of the new year has not yet passed, but there is a completely opposite situation in Bangta City.

In the past, countless people flocked to Bangta City from other places at this time, but this year, groups of people left Bangta City.

Some went east into the Duchy of Mirando.

The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, in cooperation with the Principality of Milan and the Kingdom of Rulson, decided to build a brand new production base in the small town of Ampreston in the Principality of Milan. Now it is recruiting a large number of workers, and is in urgent need of skilled workers who produce magic machinery.

At the same time, the Amly Chamber of Commerce also entered the Principality of Mirando, intending to help the Principality of Mirando build several roads that run through the Principality, which also requires a lot of labor.

In addition, the Armani Chamber of Commerce, the Saranke Chamber of Commerce and other established chambers of commerce in Bonta City have also relocated many factories under their names to the small town of Ampreston, and they also need to recruit workers who are willing to go there.

It is said that in order to attract these chambers of commerce to invest, the Principality of Mirando has given extremely high tax incentives and has many policies to support them.

Although this will cause the goods produced by these chambers of commerce in the small town of Ampreston to be defined as imported goods by the Kingdom of Lampari, according to the information revealed by these chambers of commerce, the goods they produce in the small town of Ampreston. It was not intended to be sold to the Lampari Kingdom.

After all, outside of the Lampari Kingdom, there is a huge market on the entire Sainz Road that is much wider.

Some went south directly into the Kingdom of Rulson.

As early as last year, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the Amari Chamber of Commerce and the Armani Chamber of Commerce have entered the Luerson Kingdom to invest in the construction of some factories. This year, the Luerson Kingdom has increased its joint venture efforts.

Although the Kingdom of Luerson asked the three chambers of commerce to recruit more local workers. However, the demand for skilled workers still requires the three chambers of commerce to recruit aggressively in Bangta City to meet them.

At the same time, the Rulson Kingdom itself has opened several factories by virtue of the household magic machinery production technology transferred from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and there is also a demand for skilled workers.

Of course, the Rulson Kingdom does not have such talents, and naturally they can only find them from the city of Bangta, which has the most skilled workers.

Moreover, compared with the three chambers of commerce such as the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the salaries offered by Luerxun Kingdom to skilled workers are even higher.

Also a senior miller, the monthly salary given by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is 14 gold coins excluding overtime pay. On the other hand, the factories in the Rulson kingdom would at least offer a high monthly salary of 18 gold coins, and they could also enjoy high-level treatment.

Except for those facing east and south, most of the remaining people are all heading west.

Most of them stopped after entering the Black Rice Wasteland. It was previously built by four chambers of commerce including the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but now it has moved to the production bases of dozens of Bangta City chambers of commerce to find jobs.

The last part turns south from the Black Rice Wasteland and enters the Duchy of Standing.

These people mainly entered the newly-built factories of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the Principality of Standing, and some were recruited by the Amley Chamber of Commerce to work for the newly planned Standing Seaside Garden Community by the Amley Chamber of Commerce.

In the past, many people from other places came to Bangta City to find jobs, but after arriving in Bangta City, after learning about the actual situation, these people from other places also looked for a direction. But he left Bangta City again.

In the first month of the new year, the city of Bangta was quite messy because of the new year and the people coming and going.

And wait until the first month has passed. Less than half of the second month has passed, and when you walk to the streets of Bangta City, you will find that this city, which was so prosperous and lively in the past few years, has almost turned into a ghost city.

In the early spring, there was still a chilly breeze blowing by, and the discarded waste paper balls on the street at some point whirled around a dozen times with the wind, and just rolled to Sevigny's feet.

He looked down at the ball of paper. Seweini picked him up carefully, and opened it to have a look. But it turned out that it was a promotional leaflet for a finished clothing store of the Armani Chamber of Commerce.

Looking at the colorful and green image above, it looks like a scene of flowers. Looking up again at the deserted street in front of him where few people could be seen at all, Sevini couldn't help feeling a bit of heartache.

In her impression, the level of prosperity has always been stronger than that of Anweimar City, and it is always full of vigor. People's faces are always covered with sunny smiles in Bangta City. Why is it now like this?

Although he knew that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's departure from Bangta City would definitely have a certain impact on Bangta City, Sevini never thought that the impact would be so serious.

Bangta City was able to become prosperous at the beginning, in fact, because of the emergence of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it drove the development of the magic industry in Bangta City, which made the entire Bangta City develop.

Now Bangta City suddenly became dilapidated, and because Xinfei Chamber of Commerce left Bangta City.

Could it be that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is really so important to Bangta City?

In fact, there is no need to ask anyone for this question, and Seweini knows very well that the answer is yes.

She will not do indifferent regrets and annoyances because of what has happened. When she came to Bangta City this time, she wanted to find Xu Yi to help her solve the problems of the refugees who were still staying in her territory. There is one very important thing to do.

The current Bangta City has become like this, and the current Lampari Kingdom has completely changed.

These changes are not good changes, and Seweney has seen many crises from these changes.

Although she very much does not want to continue to interfere in the internal affairs of the kingdom, as Her Royal Highness the Queen of the Kingdom of Lampari and the daughter of King Lampari XIII, she must do something for the country.

The first thing to do is to start with Bangta City.
