If this wasn't said by her husband, she would have spit it out, okay?

It's really shameless.

"Everything should be a give-and-take, right? It doesn't make sense for us to ask for things without giving anything in return, right?" The problem is what can we provide to our original countries. Only if there is a give-and-take will they ask for things with confidence.

Father Xu laughed: "You don't know me yet? Just listen to me. We just talked about the courier, now let's talk about the person who traveled here."

"First, let's not talk about babies, let's talk about people over 70 years old."

The elderly people over 70 years old mentioned here of course refer to those who were 70 years old before traveling through time, but have now become middle-aged people.

Mother Xu nodded. She wanted to see what her husband was going to say.

"We all know that there is no compensation for people over 70, and they don't have houses to bring with them, so there are several problems here."

"First, where did the house go? From what the courier said, we know that our entire community has disappeared, sunk into a huge pit. As for what's underneath the pit, we still don't know. Of course, that's not important. What's important is where the house went. Where did the elderly person's house go? Where did the public facilities, the shops in the community, the clubhouse, the senior activity center, the sports field, the community hospital, the rehabilitation center, etc. go? If they didn't bring the house with them, it should have stayed in the original world."

"Huh?" Mother Xu's eyes widened. "Right. After all, the house didn't stay in the modern world. So if the old man's children don't have a house, and the old man didn't bring a house with him... wouldn't that be very unfair? There's no reason to exchange a house for a time-travel ticket."

"Based on everything I've seen since traveling through time, I feel like this so-called time travel system, or whatever it is, well, it's all about allowing us to travel through time... I feel like it's trying to be as fair as possible. For example, regarding the 1 million yuan compensation per person, you remember the housing prices back home, right? It doesn't seem to be much different. But since we have more people in our family this time, we're at an advantage. Otherwise, for a normal family of three, the price wouldn't be that different."

Mr. Xu recorded this information: "You are right, I haven't thought of this yet."

Mother Xu became excited and said, "And, and, don't babies also get compensation? Babies without family members to take care of them are given a small pouch, haha, just like kangaroo mothers. Kangaroo mothers have a pouch, haha..."

"Anyway, this can be considered as compensation for the children. However, how much compensation this is depends on how the parents provide it. But the fact that people can come here is actually a huge compensation, right?"

"Of course, there is no better compensation than being able to accompany my children as they grow up."

"Oh no!" Mother Xu said with a smile, "I got off topic. I was talking about houses. So where did those houses go?"

"I don't know. Maybe it's in exchange for a healthy body, or perhaps it's to gain the 'ability' to move freely. Or maybe the reward hasn't been distributed yet. After all, it took a long time for the babies' pouches to be distributed, so all of this is possible."

"That's right. Anyway, we'll know after a while. There are quite a few people over 70 in the district. If there really is some compensation, that would actually be quite good. I used to think this time travel was really too much. The people who need care the most don't get any compensation. Now it seems that I can temporarily hold back on this assessment. Maybe it's not what I thought. Okay, husband, go on. What's the second point?"

"The second point is 'traders'."

"Huh? What did you mean? Courier, I know you're talking about the parents and relatives of those five babies, but who are you referring to as trader?"

"Of course, I'm referring to those who can leave the village, that is, those who were over 70 years old before the time travel. Of course, those children who were 12 years old before the time travel can also leave, but the problem is that they are too young now. They still need to wait for many years before they can grow up."

"But the parents of those five babies can also leave the village."

"The time they can spend here is limited. They don't have time to do anything. The trip back and forth probably takes up too much time. Moreover, they come here to take care of and accompany their babies. After all, for children, time is multiplied tenfold. With such a small amount of time, they are willing to use it for other things. Therefore, the main force has to be the elderly."

“Then why a trader?”

"It's just a title. You could say they're traders, or you could say they're 'travelers' representatives.' In short, they're the 'channel' between us travelers in the village and the outside world. You could even say they're the channel for communication and trade between the 'country' and the rest of the world!" Father Xu's eyes lit up when he said this: "There's a give and take, right? If a small village wants to become a small town, making it easier for everyone to travel, right? Then at least we have to open up the channel, and the elders are an indispensable and important part of that."

Mother Xu thought about it and felt that what she said was correct, but she still had a question: "But we have three passages to go out. We don't necessarily have to let the elderly out. In other words, we are not completely imprisoned here."
