Chapter 1053: The Siphon Effect of Big Cities
"Hey, Boss Heath, I heard that you are also a member of the Junsha family?" Karenya had finished eating and was chatting with Heath while drinking tea. There were no other guests in Heath's dining car at this time, so he just chatted with Karenya. After hearing Karenya's question, Heath couldn't help but look at Karenya. He knew that Karenya was being tracked by the Junshas, but he didn't know why Karenya asked him this question. Could it be that he was going to let Junsha give up tracking? But Heath thought this possibility was not very high. After all, everyone knew that this kind of thing could not be solved by asking an ordinary person for help. If it really wanted to be solved, it would have to be said by the top leaders of Junsha.
"Well, what's wrong?" However, Heath still answered Karenya's question. He was indeed a member of the Junsha family. This was acknowledged by the old man, so Heath did not think that this was something that could not be acknowledged. What's more, after his relationship with Sirona was exposed, some of his information was turned out, including the news that he was a member of Junsha, so there was actually no value in concealing this kind of thing.
"Then you must feel very safe." Karenya looked at Heath with envy. She also wanted to have a happy family, a family that could give her a sense of security. Unfortunately, she had never encountered such a family, but went straight into hell. Fortunately, she crawled out of hell by herself, which she thought was the most correct thing she had ever done.
Heath touched his chin . As for a sense of security, there was actually nothing wrong. After all, the Junshas did take good care of themselves. There was an internal alarm device of the Junsha family on Heath's dining car. Once something happened, the Junshas would rush over quickly. Most of the Junshas were very protective of their own people, so even a huge dark organization like the Rockets was not very willing to provoke the Junsha family, because provoking one would bring countless Junshas.
"Miss Karenya, speaking of which, aren't you planning to return to the Silver Alliance?" Heath looked at Karenya and asked. He was indeed quite curious about this question. You know, the Silver Alliance is the most prosperous place in Kanto and Johto. No other golden city is as prosperous as this place, so the housing prices there are also very high, to an outrageous degree. It is very difficult for most people to obtain Silver Alliance household registration. Even if they buy a house, they have to live there for a while without leaving before they can apply for Silver Alliance household registration.
But the problem is that the housing prices in the Silver Alliance are very expensive, and most people really cannot afford this price, so most people are actually unable to meet this condition. People living in the Silver Alliance are also very arrogant. They think that people outside are country people every day, and only they, the people of the old Silver Alliance, are real people from the imperial capital, and the food they eat is also authentic.
However, such people are a minority. Most people are very ordinary and live in the Silver Alliance only because of their work and studies in this place. However, the Silver Alliance has always been difficult to join but easy to leave. There is even a reward fee for leaving the Silver Alliance, which is as high as 300,000 Alliance Coins, which is considered good. However, no one is willing to leave.
The Silver Alliance is like a huge sponge, absorbing the surrounding moisture crazily. Heath also knows that the Alliance has been trying to solve this problem, but this problem is not easy to solve. The gradual abandonment of rural towns has almost become a foregone conclusion. Young people always yearn for big cities with rich resources and more young people. The life there is prosperous, which is much better than small towns and rural areas. What is there in the countryside? You can smell the stench of social animals when walking on the road, and what about the city? Young people always like lively places.
So more and more young people are leaving their small villages and towns and moving to big cities. As the number of young people in small towns and villages decreases, other young people are gradually unable to stay there. After all, they are surrounded by their elders, so what common topics can they talk about? So more and more young people are attracted to big cities, and this cycle repeats, forming a vicious cycle. In the end, only some elderly and middle-aged people are left in small villages and towns, and the population is declining, which also leads to more problems.
And some of the people in those cities also yearn for bigger cities, such as the Silver Alliance, which is absolutely the largest city. Therefore, the Silver Alliance also attracts countless people who want to join it every day. Heath has heard experts analyze that the Silver Alliance has expanded several times since its establishment, and even so is still not enough. It may even have to continue to expand, otherwise it will not be able to accommodate such a large population. And those who join the Silver Alliance are naturally not created out of thin air, nor are they born by the people in the Silver Alliance themselves. They are all from small villages or other cities.
With the addition of these strong laborers, the Silver Alliance became more prosperous.
So Heath had never seen someone like Karenya who would voluntarily leave the Silver Alliance and even refuse to go back.
"No, that place is too crowded, too dull and suffocating." Karenya shook her head. She had already thought about the future trajectory of her life. For this, she received compensation and sold the burned house to get a huge sum of money. In fact, the money from selling the house alone was enough for her to live a worry-free life for several lifetimes, but she still made an investment, which was to deposit the money in the bank to earn interest. The annual interest was enough for her to travel all day without having to worry about running out of money.
So Karenya has been traveling. She wants to visit every corner of the world and then eventually find a place to settle down. If she can meet someone she likes, she can live a happy family life. If she can't meet him/her, it would be nice to be single. Karenya doesn't want to force herself.
"Indeed." Thinking of the Silver Alliance, Heath nodded. That place was indeed very dull, and the pace of life was too fast. In other places, five o'clock was still time to go to bed, but in the Silver Alliance, people had to get up. If Heath wanted to sell breakfast in the Silver Alliance, he had to get up early, especially early. He had to get up before the roosters crowed, otherwise he would miss the time to sell breakfast.
So after leaving the Silver Alliance, Heath missed the prosperity of that place very much, but if Heath was asked to go back, he would not be willing to do so, because that place was not suitable for Heath himself, and he was not a person who pursued a fast-paced life.
He likes a slow pace.
