Eternal Beast Taming Family
Chapter 186 New Town, Qixia Town
Heyu Town.
Since the last battle between the two families, in which the Zhang family suffered a major defeat and was punished by being banished to the outer border.
The entire town of Heyu enjoyed a period of stability for nearly a month.
Who knew that in early June, a notice from the town mayor's office would cause the entire town of Heyu to "boil over".
"Township Mayor's Announcement"
The new town of Heyu has been completed and is currently selecting residents with various skills to move in. If someone has a special skill, they can be allocated a house according to their skill or have part of their housing cost reduced.
As the new town is under construction, residents from all villages are welcome to move in with their families. Starting today, those who move in within one month will enjoy a 50% discount on room rates.
The new town is located in Qixia Town, Heyu Town (next to Fuhe Village, the former Heyu Town).
"Why are they suddenly building a new town?"
"Does that mean our Heyu Town, as an old town, is going to be abandoned?"
"Giving up is not necessarily the case. The policy doesn't explicitly state what the new town is for. We should wait and see."
"Hey, it seems that Fuhe Village is under the jurisdiction of the Chu family, a new clan. In other words, this new town is on the Chu family's territory."
"They really can't let people have a moment of peace. It hasn't been that long, and they've already caused all this trouble."
"New town sounds good, maybe there will be more opportunities. I'll go to that new town this afternoon and see if anyone wants to come along?" A burly man looked at the announcement with a grin and asked the people around him.
"I."
"I'll go too."
"Together, together!"
After the burly man finished speaking, many people responded, and most of them were relatively young.
The burly man made an appointment with the others and then hurried home.
The burly man, named Wang Hu, was a blacksmith working at a blacksmith shop in town. He saw the news on his way to work, and he had long been fed up with this kind of life.
Seeing the construction of the new town, his mind immediately became active, so he made a last-minute decision to skip work today and go to check out that new town.
He was tall and walked very fast. After turning through several alleys, he arrived at his home.
With a creak, he pushed open the wooden door and entered the somewhat cramped courtyard.
A woman who was beating clothes by the well looked at him with a slight surprise when she saw him return. "Did you forget something?"
Wang Hu shook his head slightly. "I'm not going to work today. The town said a new town has been completed, and I want to go there to see if there are any opportunities."
The woman didn't know anything about the new town. She was an extremely reserved person and wouldn't say much about her husband's decision, so she simply nodded and said, "Then you go and take a look first."
Wang Hu glanced at the cramped courtyard and sighed inwardly. Although he was a blacksmith, he was still just a laborer. He could make a living in this town, and even save some spare money.
However, this money is enough to improve one's daily life, but it's not enough to do anything big.
This kind of life, where they neither starve nor have enough to eat, prevents them from living freely in this town.
After telling his family, Wang Hu took a water bottle and left, heading towards the entrance of the town.
By the time he arrived, most of the people who had made the appointment had already gathered.
Without much restraint, they set off in small groups on the highway to Qixia Town.
Don't worry if you don't know the way. The notice says that "Qixia Village" is easy to find. One end of this road is Heyu Town, and the other end is Qixia Town.
As long as you follow this smooth road, you will eventually reach Qixia Town.
Along this stretch of road, the number of people increased, resembling a bustling market during the Lunar New Year.
However, these people from the town or other villages were all there to visit the new town mentioned in the announcement.
Wang Hu and his group were all young people, and they walked quickly. In about an hour, a town bathed in the bright morning sun came into view.
At this moment, the outline of the village and town appeared. From this distance, they could already see the skyscrapers in the new town, which were much taller than those in the town itself.
These townspeople and villagers had never been to faraway places, and the seven-story building was enough to shock them. Moreover, most of the houses next to it, which seemed to be where the residents lived, were only six stories high.
With a certain eagerness, the visitors quickened their pace until they approached the entrance to the town, at which point they gradually slowed down.
Upon closer inspection, the buildings appeared even taller, and through their exceptionally bright windows, they could see figures moving about inside. As they looked at the buildings, the people inside were also curiously looking back at them from their windows.
Upon entering the new town, they were not charged any money; they were only warned not to damage a single tree or blade of grass in the town before being allowed entry.
Some people entered the town, while others left. Those leaving were well-dressed and carried special tools, as if they were going to do some work.
At this moment, Wang Hu remembered that there seemed to be many fields planted with medicinal herbs on both sides of the road. Those should all belong to the town's residents, who should be working in the fields now.
It turns out that people living in such nice houses still have to work.
He walked into the town in a daze, and after walking for a while, he suddenly stopped, not knowing what to do. The buildings all around him were exceptionally magnificent.
But he felt very lost. The town said it needed someone with a skill, but how was he supposed to ask? And could he really afford to buy this tall building with a small courtyard?
The 1.85-meter-tall man stood helplessly by the roadside for a while, then, thinking that since he was already there, he wouldn't be satisfied without asking, he walked towards an elderly man in the new town.
The townspeople were easily distinguishable from these outsiders, because the outsiders observed the town with either trepidation or curiosity, while the residents looked at them with curiosity.
Wang Hu approached an elderly man sitting on a small stool in front of a courtyard, basking in the sun. "Excuse me, sir," he said, "I'd like to ask, isn't there a notice in Qixia Town that accepts residents with special skills? Where do I go to apply?"
The old man raised his bright eyes to look at Wang Hu, smiled, and said, "Want to come to Qixia Town? Sure, just walk along this road until you reach the center where there's a large square. All the new residents' affairs are handled there."
Wang Hu looked in the direction the old man pointed, then clasped his hands in a fist salute and said, "Thank you, sir. I'd like to ask, are these houses very expensive?"
"Very expensive?" The old man shook his head. "We are the natives, so this house is free for us. But I don't know if you outsiders have to pay. Go check out the square. I heard there's a discount going on. Hurry up, or you might miss it."
The old man in front of me knew some information, but not much.
After thanking the old man, Wang Hu quickly walked in the direction he had pointed.
Before long, the square was bustling with people.
