Although it was engaged, Zhou Nan found that he was not as happy as he imagined. It's not because he doesn't like Audrey, it's mainly because the pressure of immigration prevents him from fully engaging in the joy of forgetfulness.

How to live in Switzerland is not just a matter for him, but also for the two women and the future of the Hoffmann family.

In this era, the pressure on people's survival is much greater than that of later generations. What's more, hearing Yannick's analysis of the current situation in Switzerland, he was also a little at a loss about the future.

When he came to Germany five years ago, he passed through Switzerland, and only passed through the country on the train, only to change trains in Zurich and set foot on the country's soil.

In another life, he also visited Switzerland once in the 90s, but it was only a sightseeing tour. I know that it is the most beautiful garden country in the world, with countless scenery that people will not want to leave, but I don't know anything about the composition of this country.

But now that he wants to stay in this country to survive, this is a completely different concept, and he is about to face a completely different life, and he can't be at ease.

Audrey gets along very well with Vera and her three siblings, and feels their kindness and intimacy, which also makes her more hopeful for the future and much more dependent on Zhou Nan.

But Zhou Nan was afraid that she would be led astray by Vera when she was still young.

The former incarnation of an angel, the incarnation of purity, was photographed by a reporter because she was wearing a swimsuit, and Audrey, who was still very sad, if she had more contact with Vera, who was stubborn, strong, and a little bit of a rotten girl, Zhou Nan didn't dare to think too much.

Fortunately, everyone will be separated soon, and when they meet again, I am afraid that it will be a few years later, by that time, Audrey has grown up, and she should not be affected by Vera.

On the day of the engagement, Zhou Nan and Audrey still did not live together. The next day, everyone began to pack up and get ready to leave here.

Her two aunts, one aunt, would travel to Spain with their children. They will travel to Paris and from there to Bilbao, Spain.

Bilbao is home to the Basque people in Spain, and due to their xenophobic, even the Spanish government is dominated by co-optation. It was also the least affected area by the Spanish civil unrest because of the co-optation of both sides.

It is also one of the few pure lands on the European continent today, and countless wealthy people in Europe have made it their main destination for emigration, as are Audrey's relatives.

And Zhou Nan and Audrey, including Kelly, will follow Yannick and them to Leverkusen first. After Caroline and the others settle down, Yannick will take Zhou Nan and them to Switzerland again.

Getting an immigration permit for Switzerland is just the first step. This is because Switzerland, although it claims to be a federal state, is in fact a confederation state, and the state is only a name, holding military and diplomatic powers, but most of the other powers are reserved in the hands of the cantons themselves.

For example, the Swiss tax is levied by the cantons themselves, and different cantons have different tax rates, and some cantons can even negotiate taxes. If you are a wealthy person and pay more taxes, you can negotiate with the state government to pay a little less tax.

In many cases, such consultations also work.

Zhou Nan immigrated to Switzerland and got an immigration permit, which just means that he can stay in this country and live. But if he wants to be a Swiss man, it is more important to find a canton that is willing to accept him.

The night before leaving, the whole family sat together and discussed their plans for the future.

"The canton of Zurich is the most prosperous canton in Switzerland, but because of the war confrontation, it is currently a concentration camp for spies from all over the world. This is true of both Geneva and the capital, Bern, which at the moment are not considered to be the best destinations for migrants. Several of my friends in Switzerland discouraged me from letting you settle there, and instead highly recommended the central region of Switzerland. ”

"I don't know much about Switzerland, so I don't have too many requirements, as long as I can live quietly there, I'm satisfied."

Yannick nodded and said, "Do you remember Father Bvanrenna, who used to be a priest at the Church of the Saint-Sith in Brussels?" He now serves as bishop in Engelberg, central Switzerland. I got in touch with him the other day and we can settle down with him before deciding where to settle down. ”

Zhou Nan had almost turned over a map of Switzerland that he had found recently, and when he heard Yannick say this, he soon knew about Engelberg.

Although the town is small, it is also famous in Switzerland. For more than 100 years, it was a destination for the wealthy of Europe. Before the First World War, the town of just 2,000 people welcomed nearly 200,000 visitors.

Zhou Nan glanced at Audrey, who was whispering to Claudio, and said, "But it is located in the mountains, far away from the city, and Audrey will have to go to school in the future, which seems a little inappropriate." ”

Yannick laughed and said, "I also took this aspect into account, which is why I said to settle down in Engelberg first." My aim was for you to settle in Lucerne, but unfortunately I have no acquaintances there, so I will ask Father Bvan Lenna to arrange it for you, and he agreed. ”

Of course, he is no stranger to the cultural city of Lucerne Zhounan in Switzerland, which he has visited in the past and knows that it is a place that countless writers and artists have very much loved.

Writers include Victor Hugo, Leo Tolstoy, Mark Twain, etc., and even more musicians, such as Liszt, Wagner, Mendelssohn, Beethoven, Rachmaninoff, etc.

As for the painters, there are also countless celebrities, and Picasso left thousands of drawings here, for which a Picasso museum was built here.

Even in another life, Audrey's first marriage was in a monastery on the shores of Lake Lucerne, on the hill of Bergen.

Switzerland is a mud-legged country, a country with no long history, no culture of its own, and even a few celebrities because it has always been a poor country.

But Lucerne has always been one of the country's top cities of art, favored by countless literati and artists. The grandmother of Europe, Queen Victoria of England, called it the most beautiful place in the world.

Five years ago, Zhou Nan had just arrived in Europe, where the first summer music festival was held. With the Nazis already in control of Austria, Lucerne, as a neutral place, attracted musicians from all over the world to the town for one of the most prestigious summer concerts in the world.

It's a pity that it was already autumn when Zhou Nan came, and the concert had already ended, otherwise they would have participated.

In Zhounan's memory, the Lucerne Festival is one of the three major classical music festivals in the world, and its performance venue is also known as one of the five best concert halls in the world.

For Zhou Nan, it doesn't matter where she lives, but Audrey is still young, and she still needs to continue her education. Therefore, even if Zhou Nan wants to live in seclusion, he needs to be closer to the city to facilitate Audrey's education.

In this way, Lucerne is definitely a very good place to settle. Obviously, Yannick also settled on this place after careful consideration.

Seeing that Zhou Nan liked this place very much, Yannick also laughed and said: "Lucerne is a good place to settle in many ways, but the tax rate is a bit high. In Switzerland, the tax rate here is at the upper middle level. If you want to develop commercially in the future, the surrounding cantons of Zug, Schwyz and Walden are the real commercial treasures. ”

Zhou Nan felt that it didn't matter, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Yannick, as long as we can maintain a decent life, more wealth doesn't mean anything to us. Knowing how to give back to the society is a character that a respectable entrepreneur should have. ”

Vera couldn't help but giggle when she saw her father, who was a little embarrassed. Caroline helped Zhou Nan pick up a freshly baked biscuit, handed it to him and smiled: "My Jonas don't learn from your father, a vulgar businessman, will never gain the respect of others." ”

Yannick was not ashamed, shook his head and smiled: "The composition of human society is always diverse, and it needs a variety of different factors, including respected artists, hard-working and simple farmers and workers, and even more vulgar businessmen. ”

Caroline carried the basket of biscuits and handed them to each one in turn. "Audrey, are you ready with your luggage? You're leaving here tomorrow, and you should talk to your mom more. ”

Audrey took a biscuit with some embarrassment, and said in a coquettish voice: "My mother asked me to come over, and the aunts and aunts at home are also going to leave here, making a mess at home." …… The luggage has been packed...... But it's getting late, and it's time for me to go back. ”

Caroline smiled and said, "Let Jonas send you back, and then get together with your mother more, and in the future, you will become a member of our Hoffman family!" ”

Hearing Caroline's ridicule, Audrey was even more embarrassed, secretly glanced at Zhou Nan, and saw that he was staring at herself, and couldn't help but bow her head and smile sweetly.

Claudio grinned, "Don't rush to go, we'll finish this game and end it......"

Leon, who couldn't hold back for a long time, hurriedly said: "I'll accompany you!" ”

Claudio pouted and said, "I don't like to play with you, your skills are too poor, and I like to play tricks." ”

Leon pulled the corner of Caroline's clothes and said coquettishly: "Mom, Claudio bullied me......"

Caroline deliberately glared at Claudio and said, "After this game, let Jonas send Audrey back, and you ...... with Leon."

Claudio didn't cling to it again: "Mom will be partial to Leone, he's a little ghost, and he can't be the most annoying." ”

Zhou Nan couldn't help but laugh when he looked at where they were making noise. This kind of family warmth always intoxicated him, and he was willing to exchange everything for this happiness when he thought of being lonely and miserable in another life.
