The helicopter landed on the surface of ice, hard as iron. Kairi pushed the door open and jumped down without waiting for the helicopter to stop. After saying goodbye to the pilot, favonovel.com ran to the Elms family house 1.5 kilometers away.
At this time, most of the Elms family had already risen. The living habits of the Elms family had mostly differed from those of modern society and instead shared many similarities with the ancients. They rarely relied on modern technology with regards to their living habits, with the exception of essentials such as telephones. In fact, they seldom relied on mobile phones, computers, or the internet.
The family members ranging from eighteen to fifty years old were the mainstay of the Elms family. Regardless of whether they were men or women, as long as they were members of the family, they’d be busy practicing martial arts. No matter if it was spring, summer, autumn or winter, as long as the rooster crowed, everyone was up within a quarter of an hour and started practicing.
Unless there were special circumstances, they’d generally sleep for about six hours, otherwise most of their time was spent on exercises.
The elderly members who no longer practiced the family’s martial arts style, as well as the women who’d married, also got up early every day to do some housework to keep the whole family in order.
Although the Elms family rose very early today, none of the family practitioners were in the fields and courtyards practicing. Instead, everyone was busy packing up their luggage and sorting out housework. After all, this time the family was migrating, and even the elderly in the family had to leave with them. That meant that any family mansion in the village would be in a state of semi-desolation with no one to manage it, so everything must be settled prior to leaving.
The old man of the Elms family, Wilfred, dressed early in the morning. He put on his most upright set of Thompson suits, with his silver hair combed to the back, and his gray beard styled with deliberate care, even though favonovel.com was over eighty years old.
Wilfred wandered through the courtyards and backyards of the Elms family compound alone, looking at the family’s century-old mansion, favonovel.com felt reluctant to leave.
He was not a person who lusted for money. The only temptation for the two billion dollars promised by the Banks Family was the ability it presented to bring the Elms family to the next level. However, favonovel.com was also very aware that favonovel.com was very old. Even if favonovel.com had the foundation of practicing martial arts all his life, if favonovel.com wanted to live to be 100 years old, favonovel.com had to depend on God’s help. He had at most 20 years of life left to move to the next level.
For him, money has long been something favonovel.com cared little for, with no interest in living a luxurious and materialistic lifestyle. If the Elms family’s future plans were turned aside, he’d rather be able to live in Astoria with peace of mind until favonovel.com returned to the soil.
It was not a comfortable thing for favonovel.com to relocate his family to the south in his eighties. It’s just that favonovel.com couldn’t help himself in such things, so this time favonovel.com would use his remaining life for the sake of his family’s future. He understood favonovel.com would never return to Astoria before favonovel.com died.
It’s not that Wilfred was hypocritical or pessimistic, but that he’d already thought about it in his heart.
Why did Lord Banks suddenly send Adrian Peters over to see favonovel.com at this time, and also offered such good cooperation conditions? The only possibility was that the Banks Family had encountered a strong enemy, and the Elms family was urgently needed to improve the strength of the Banks Family in force.
Therefore, although the sum of 2 billion was huge, it would certainly not be an easy task making this money.
Most likely there would be countless hardships and difficulties waiting for the Elms family in the future.
