The town of Arafat is an ordinary town in the Kingdom of Falk, located in the southeastern part of the kingdom, and is a very inconspicuous place both on the map and in reality.

If you travel about 300 kilometers southwest from the town, you will reach the Duchy of Drake, which is adjacent to the Kingdom of Falk.

If you go straight north for about 500 kilometers, or go northeast for about 600 kilometers, you can enter the Maro Empire, one of the two major empires on the mainland.

If you go straight south, you will enter the Ansu Church Principality, which is just sandwiched between the Lampari and Falk kingdoms.

Such a geographical location is naturally not surprising to any extent, and it is not important at all.

Therefore, although the history of the town of Arafat itself is even twice as long as that of the Kingdom of Falk, it has been unknown on the continent of Sainz for thousands of years, and the people in the town have been living their own lives peacefully.

However, this quiet and ordinary life changed a little five years ago.

Since the signing of the strategic partnership agreement between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Falk Kingdom five years ago, in the past five years, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has led a large number of other magical machinery chambers of commerce to enter the Falk Kingdom for investment and construction, and various factories have been built in various parts of the Falk Kingdom.

Although the town of Arafat did not have any geographical advantages, so that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce did not take a fancy to this place and invested here, but as the Falk Kingdom began to build a road on a large scale, and finally built a road to the town of Arafat, a magical mechanical chamber of commerce from the Lampari Kingdom discovered the town. and invested in the construction of a household magic machinery factory in the town.

There are only two types of products available at this plant. One is the Magic Fan. The other is the magic stove, which can be regarded as a relatively low-end and simple product of household magic machinery, but it is suitable for the needs of Arafat Town and the surrounding area.

So this year, the factory has been doing well.

Moreover, although the scale of this factory is not large, it still recruits more than 300 workers in the local town of Arafat, which greatly solves the work problem of the people in the town of Arafat, so it has been greatly welcomed and supported around the town.

When it came to discussing it privately, the people of the town were full of gratitude to the Santis Chamber of Commerce of the Lampari Kingdom for investing in the construction of the factory.

If it weren't for the fact that this chamber of commerce chose Arafat Town to invest in the construction of a factory. The people of the town are still living the monotonous and impoverished life of the past, year after year, day after day, without any hope of change.

Among these people, Kompany is one of them.

Originally, he was just a very ordinary commoner in the town of Arafat, and he could only rely on part-time jobs in various places and served as a servant in a noble family to make a living.

Although he does not starve to death every year, he can only maintain the most basic life, and he cannot hope for any other life pursuits.

But when the factory was built, Kompany was hired to work in the factory, where he was paid a minimum of ten gold coins a month, as well as a series of things that were not particularly rich. But the corresponding treatment and benefits that cannot be ignored have made the lives of him and his family change dramatically in an instant.

Now Kompany's house could not be as extravagant as those of the nobles and merchants. But I no longer have to worry about the most basic needs of life, and even meat has reached the point where I can eat it if I want.

Coupled with saving a sum of money to buy a household magic machine every once in a while, he always feels that his current life is so comfortable that it is almost like living in a dream.

He sincerely hopes that this factory can continue to open smoothly like this, so that he and his family can always live as comfortable and comfortable life as they are now.

So in the work of the factory, Kompany has always been the hardest working one.

In addition to being able to get praise from his supervisor and make his work more stable, he was also able to get a bonus of the two extra gold coins every month.

Today is the day when the factory pays wages every month, according to the past practice, half a day in the morning, after eating at noon, the last month's salary will be paid, and then half a day off in the afternoon.

After lunch, a group of workers excitedly took their wages, and a bunch of people clamored to go to the town's bar to have a good time.

However, when acquaintances came to Kompany to invite him, he refused.

"I have guests coming to my house today and I have to go back to receive them. Seeing the disappointed expressions of the workers around him, Kompany smiled, took out a gold coin from the money bag containing the salary, and stuffed it into the hand of one of the workers with whom he had the best relationship. "Although I can't go today, but the old rule, I took the bonus, and this gold coin is my treat. ”

The people looked at the gold coin in the man's hand, pursed their lips, and said nothing more.

Kompany waved goodbye to the crowd, left the factory on the outskirts, and hurried to his home in the town.

The factory is located on the outskirts of the town, four or five kilometers away, and it takes as little as 20 minutes to walk on your feet.

Kompany doesn't usually care much about the distance, and can even think of it as a leisurely walk after work.

But today, knowing that there were guests coming from the house, he couldn't help but be a little anxious, so he walked briskly and trotted all the way back as fast as he could.

When he felt that he was in front of his home on the edge of the town, he was surprised to find a slender, high-end looking magic car that shimmered black in the sunlight and was parked in the open space in front of his house.

A group of children, including his youngest son, Sayya, were circling the magic car, curious.

Seeing that Saya was about to reach out his dirty little hand to touch the magic car, Kompany immediately yelled.

"Stinky boy, put your hands down!" Kompany rushed over and picked up Sayer, slapping him in the ass. "Don't you look at what this thing is? What if it breaks?"

Saya flattened her mouth, looking like she wanted to cry but didn't dare to cry.

The other children scattered, but they didn't run far, still watching the magic car from a distance with curious eyes.

It's not like the people of Arafat haven't seen a magic car, the mayor of the town has one, Viscount Ressos, and the president of the Santis Chamber of Commerce, which belongs to the factory where Kompany works, has one, and he occasionally drives it when he comes here to inspect.

However, Viscount Ressos's magic car rarely drove out, and even less parked outside, and the president of the Santis Chamber of Commerce rarely came to Arafat's town, so in fact, there were not many opportunities for people to see the magic car.

Now there is a magic car parked so generously outside the door of an ordinary family in a civilian area, which will naturally attract countless onlookers.

Not only the children, but now there are also some adults around the Kompany family who are also looking at this magic car from a distance, pointing at this side, and many people are envious.

Kompany glanced at the circle of people around him, and remembered that there were still guests in the house, so he didn't go to greet them, and walked towards the gate with Saya in his hand.

I just walked to the gate and a person came out of it.

"Brother-in-law, let children play if they like to play, and the magic car is not so easy to break. ”

Kompany looked closely and saw that the man was a young man in his early thirties.

He was wearing a well-cut pale cyan suit with an extraordinary fabric, and a pair of leather boots that looked simple at first glance, but were actually very cleverly designed, and judging from the way he dressed, he was even more upscale than Viscount Resos, a guy who had always paid attention to aristocratic appearance.

Kompany looked at the young man with a gentle smile on his face who looked like he should never be a civilian, and he was very puzzled.

What did he just call himself, brother-in-law?

While he was in a daze, a young girl came out from behind the door, and Punchani smiled sweetly.

"Brother-in-law, you're back. ”

It was only after seeing the girl that Kompany reacted.

This girl is his wife's own sister Winnie, and Kompany has known her for more than ten years, but she is very familiar.

Since this is the case, then this young man ......

Seeing that Kompany turned to look at the young man again, Winnie smiled and took the young man's arm.

"Brother-in-law, let me introduce to you, this is my husband Jo Xiu'an. Joxiu'an, this is my brother-in-law. My brother-in-law and sister have always been very kind to me, so you have to treat them well. ”

The young man named Joshua smiled slightly and bowed slightly to Kompany: "Hello brother-in-law, first time we met, I am Winnie's husband Joshua An, from Bunta City, Lampari Kingdom. Winnie would often mention you and my sister to me, saying that she had been cared for by you since childhood, and she never forgot about it. ”

Kompany hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, no, where did this go." Winnie is Millie's sister, and of course we're going to have to take good care of her. ”

While he was talking, Sayya, who had been carried by Kompany all the time, stopped doing it, and he said loudly to Winnie: "Auntie, daddy, he beat me!"

Kompany's eyes widened, and he was about to reprimand, but Winnie had already hugged Saya from his hand, patted Saya on the shoulder and said softly, "Okay, Dad is also afraid that you will get into trouble." Come in, I've got a lot of sweets and sweets. ”

As soon as he heard the words "dim sum candy", Sayya's eyes lit up, and with a cheer, he rushed into the house.

Kompany shook his head helplessly: "Winnie, you're going to spoil children like this. ”

"I'm just his and Havat's two little nephews, even if I'm used to it, it's a matter of course. Winnie grinned, and suddenly asked, "By the way, brother-in-law, what about Havat? He's ten years old this year, hasn't he? Have you thought about what to do with him?"

Kompany's heart moved, he looked at Joxiuan, who had been smiling all the time, and pointed to the door: "Let's go in and talk about it." (To be continued......)
