The two tigers were quickly taken away by general Shi Feng’s soldiers.

Yuan Pan Di and the other three brothers took the money they had earned from selling the tigers and went straight to the San Chuan city’s government office.

When they applied for citizenship, Yuan Zhao Di, accompanying Old Yuan, had carelessly dropped General Shi Feng’s black tablet.

The scribe had received the money but was not satisfied and wanted to ask for more benefits, so Yuan Zhao Di had no choice but to play such a trick.

When the scribe saw General Shi Feng’s token, his attitude toward Old Yuan immediately changed.

He quickly issued the household registration documents and arranged for the Yuan family to live in Shi Qu village, which was close to San Chuan city.

Shi Qu village was indeed a good place.

In such a prime location, even if it were a field that had been opened up, it would quickly turn into mature land. Of course, the premise was that the person had to be diligent.

Moreover, Shi Qu village was located right behind the mountain. If it were a bad year, there would be plenty of food in the mountain.

Under normal circumstances, the citizens of other countries who passed through the gate to enter Great Xia would not even be able to think about settling down in Shi Qu village.

But now, by relying on General Shi Feng’s tablet, the Yuan family had successfully taken advantage of the situation.

The family took their household registration documents and left the city, heading straight for Shi Qu village.

There was an empty house in the village, so Old Yuan bought a large yard for the family to have a temporary place to stay.

However, the Yuan family had a large population, so the rooms in this courtyard were not enough.

However, this was not a problem. After settling, the Yuan family could buy another piece of land to build a bigger yard.

When he was in Great Yin’s Lin He village, Old Yuan had planned to expand the courtyard and build a few more rooms. Unfortunately, the plan did not go as planned.

An unexpected disaster forced their family to stay far away from the Great Yin.

Fortunately, when they arrived in Great Xia, two ferocious tigers came to their door, giving them the capital to settle down in Great Xia.

After the family settled down, Old Yuan gathered his sons to discuss the future.

“Father, I want to join the army!” Yuan Wang Di expressed his thoughts straightforwardly.

When he was in Great Yin, to become a soldier, one had to join the army to become a soldier. From then on, his descendants could only serve in the army. Therefore Yuan Wang Di had no choice but to stay home and farm with the others.

However, Great Xia was different. Here, military merits were based on a system of nobility. If he joined the army, as long as he made military achievements, he would be able to protect his family.

“Father, I’ll go with second brother!” Yuan Lai Di also spoke up.

Old Yuan looked at his two sons, eager to join the army, and sighed, “You’re all grown up and have your ideas. I won’t be making any more decisions for you! ”

“But there’s one thing. You can join the army, but please ensure your wives are fine with it!”

“Father, don’t worry!” Yuan Wang Di was not worried that his wife would stop him.

As for Yuan Lai Di, his expression was the opposite. His wife had always been against his decision to join the army. After all, joining the army meant going to the battlefield and killing.

On the battlefield, there were swords, spears, and arrows. A single mistake could cost one’s life or even cripple them.

“Father, I want to start a small business in the city!” After his second and third brothers had expressed their opinions, Yuan Zhao Di also followed suit and expressed his opinion.

The physical work of farming was not something Yuan Zhao Di could handle.
