The temperature becomes very pleasant in November in Nagalier.
This is also the reason why many rich people have been running here in the past two years.
As the federation plans to build the economic, cultural, logistics and consumption center of the southern hemisphere, more wealthy people are willing to choose to buy houses here to spend the long winter.
Global climate cooling has made winter a nightmare for people in many areas. The southward migration of the Mariro people is the most significant event.

There are now only empty cities left in the northernmost part of Marillo, like ghost towns and ghost villages.
Although it was cold there in the past, it at least had the conditions for survival.
With the occurrence of freezing weather in previous years, the temperature in the northernmost part of Marillo will be below freezing from September to April or May of the following year.
This is no longer suitable for the growth of most plants and crops. Even if there is a short summer, the temperature will not be too high.
People without money can only take their family property and go south.
Those with money can choose to live somewhere else.
Nagaril is a good choice, it can be a little hot in the summer, but for those with money, that's not a problem at all.
The improvement and development of air conditioning technology has made the cooling effect of air conditioning better and better, and at the same time, its size has become smaller and smaller.
The summer heat in Nagaril has also become tolerable.
Lynch stood on the balcony, smoking a cigarette, overlooking Slem.
Catherine, draped in a shawl, leaned against him.
"Aren't you going to meet your little friend first?"
The "little friend" in Catherine's mouth refers to the little president who has been here for a few days.
Lynch shook his head, "He is having fun now, I won't disturb him."
He said and turned his head to look at Catherine, "I have to confess something to you."
Lynch's expression was serious, which made Catherine become nervous subconsciously, "I'm a little scared, what is it?"
Before coming here, Lin Qi received a call from Momo. Her girlfriend successfully got pregnant...
Lynch always believed that if there was anyone who could go to the end with him, it would be Catherine.
They spent the most impoverished days together, and also shared each other's richest moments.
Their relationship lasted longer than everyone else combined!
So there are some things that he can hide, but there are some things that he thinks hiding are not conducive to their feelings and relationship.
He had a confession to make.
After a brief deliberation, he talked about the matter and Momo's thoughts.
"She has worked with me for a long time and plans to continue working with me."
"The only thing that maintains our relationship is interests, but pure and unilateral interests cannot maintain our relationship for a long time, so she needs a guarantee."
Catherine put a hand on her chest subconsciously and asked tentatively, "She wants to marry you?"
To be honest, if she hadn't experienced the drama in her family, maybe she and Lynch would be married now.
But her family's actions seriously hurt each other's feelings, and this is not just a casual statement.
When Catherine's family used "Lynch's poverty" and "lack of growth" as reasons to forcibly take Catherine away from Lynch, there was actually an invisible rift.
People are very strange. If you put yourself in Catherine's position, she can have thoughts such as "Why don't you try hard" and "I have tried my best."
From Lynch's point of view, he can also have opinions such as "Why don't you wait any more".
So in a way she lost him, but luckily he got her back.
It's just that the gap between the two parties is too big now, and there are some other factors that make the two not suitable for marriage.
So for Catherine, the most worrying thing is Lynch's marital status.
If someone beats her to that spot, she might give up.
Fortunately, Lin Qi shook his head and she breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Lin Qi didn't plan to get married, it wouldn't be a big problem.
"I will wait for you, so I will not marry anyone else."
"She wants a child..."
Just when she took one breath and before taking in the second breath, Lynch's second sentence made Catherine choke.
She coughed violently, and rolled her eyes at Lynch's strange eyes, "Then what?"
"She told me it worked."
Catherine's expression was complicated, "Your first child must be of great significance to you!"
She thinks so. People always remember the "first time" in their lives, and they even have an indescribable feeling!
Just like the first kiss, the first intimacy, the first time people feel the arrival of a new world...
Maybe people will miss the first time and the person for the first time, but they will remember it for a lifetime, in their hearts, in their memories, and in the years!
Even if they grow old, years or decades later, they can still remember the moment that night that made their blood boil and their hearts beat faster.
I can remember the heat radiating from the person opposite me, and the heartbeats of the people who are close to each other!
It was a bit of a shame, but...Catherine didn't know how to describe it, she didn't think it would be a problem.
She had thought about it before, but she wouldn't worry about it.
Regarding Catherine's statement, Lynch thought for a while and then shook his head, "The child is just a way for her to strengthen her connection with me. She can't give me benefits, she can only use family affection."
"This is something special, and I have to tell you, or at least hear what you think."
"If you find it unacceptable, I will arrange for it to leave."
Catherine could feel Lynch's sincerity, and she thought for a while, "I was very sad at first, because it was your first child, and it was not mine and yours."
"But now that you say this, I have become a lot better. At least I know that its existence will not destroy our relationship."
"Why should I care about him if it won't ruin our relationship?"
Catherine was more curious, "Will you admit that the child is your illegitimate child?"
"Or are you going to bring that child into your life?"
Lynch shook his head and said, "I don't like children. You know, he is just a symbolic thing to me."
Catherine stopped talking about this topic and turned to some matters about Congress.
Power changes the way people think. In the past, Catherine would not take the initiative to discuss this, but now, she does.
"After the administrative regional planning of Mariro next year, there will be at least three more of our own people in Congress. By then, our people will account for about 20 percent of the seats."
"After your next term ends, the York Gang should be fully established. By then I will find a way to bring you into operation."
"This is Slem, the city of miracles, where miracles that attract everyone's attention will be born!"
This is Lynch's "chip". If he wants to come to Slem or the state government, he must negotiate for Catherine to enter the Congress.
As soon as Catherine entered Congress, Lynch could begin to run the operations of the Confederacy's first female president.
In the next eight years, if nothing major happens, the Progressive Party should still be in power.
The Progressive Party has gained tremendous political benefits from its radical political platform, so they will continue to follow this pattern of interests for the next eight years.
Leading capital to continue to expand in the international community, capital's plunder and aggression will be more covert and more effective than through war.
Although there will be many problems in doing so, such as the negative impact caused by capital plundering small and medium-sized countries and dumping markets, rapidly growing to a level that is difficult for the government to control.
But compared to "trouble in the future", it is obvious that "the glory now" is more important!
The power of capital will further expand, and the status of wealth will be re-evaluated and improved.
Slem's extremely high annual taxes will become one of the important factors that gives the federal government the confidence to fight against the capital groups to a certain extent!
If you have money, your voice will be louder.
If the federal government has money, it will naturally be louder!
Therefore, Slem’s future position is very important. For such an important position, it is not too much to exchange for two Senate seats in Congress, right?
"When you enter the Congress, you will be infinitely closer to our original goal!"
While Lynch and Catherine were talking about dreams and ideals, the little president was playing happily.
The girl next to me exudes a charming fragrance.
Even if she is a female cousin, the young president can still smile at her, unlike the woman at home!
A handful of cards, he won several hundred dollars, and he stuffed one of the fifty-denomination chips into the gap between the girl's bra and her skin.
It may take a long time to learn well, but it only takes a few times to learn bad!
After arriving in Slem, while waiting for Lynch to get bored, the young president first played around.
The supporting amusement facilities in Slem are being built at an extremely fast speed, and there are many interesting and simple games to play on the roadside.
He experienced everything he liked in two days, and then he entered the free performance hall of the casino according to the "Slem Travel Guide".
All major casinos have free performance halls. You only need to exchange two hundred yuan in chips to enter the performance hall and watch the show.
Not only is there no charge, but free drinks and fruits are provided. After watching, there is no problem in exchanging chips for money or leaving directly.
It's just that most of the audience who watched the show ended up losing the chips they used as "tickets" in the casino.
The Little President is no exception.
When he left the exit passage after the performance, he saw the bustling casino hall outside the passage.
This is also an ingenuity in the design structure. To leave the performance hall, you need to go around the lobby on the first floor of the casino to get out.
The purpose of this is to give more people the opportunity to enter the casino and use the chips in their hands.
I have to say, this is a despicable move!
Because most people can't help but take a look, then place bets at will, and are eventually attracted to a certain gambling table!
The same goes for little presidents.
When a man laughed wildly and stuffed several handfuls of chips into the chest of the girl next to him, he couldn't help but become curious.
What on earth makes this man so... wanton?
He wants to know the truth!
