Chapter 359: know-it-all

From the west city to the north city, I feel like I have come to two different worlds. Compared with the bustling and lively west city, the north city feels dilapidated and desolate, with tattered clothes and pale people everywhere.

Before coming here, Lingfei knew about the layout of Munster City. The DC area near the Munster port is a bustling commercial area. Businessmen from all over the mainland gather here, and it is a well-known commercial distribution center.

The XC district is barely considered a tourist area due to the support of the mercenary union and the ancient buildings in the old city of Münster, while the southern district is a wealthy district occupied by several powerful forces. , Beicheng is a slum where the most humble people live.

It's just that what Lingfei didn't expect was that this seemingly bustling city was only separated by a few streets, as if it were two worlds.

There is still such a bad condition, the sewage is flowing everywhere, and at a glance, there is no high-rise building, all of which are made of wooden boards, one after another, and the better buildings are built with bluestone boards. It made Lingfei very suspicious that if a small fire broke out here, it would probably engulf a lot of people's houses in an instant.

Most of the people living here are barefooted and doing their own things indifferently. In Ling Fei's view, the eyes of these people have long been filled with despair, and some people have even lost their lives. awareness of survival.

This made it hard for Lingfei to imagine what kind of ups and downs this group of people had gone through in order to become so decadent. It even made him suspect that the person who lived in this kind of place was said to be introduced by the hotel owner. Is the best know-it-all a scam?

After asking all the way, Ling Fei and the two finally came to the residence of the know-it-all, seeing the old lady for the first time gave Ling Fei a little confidence.

It seems that this old lady is very thin, only about 1.5 meters tall, with silver hair combed neatly behind her head, her wrinkled face is full of red, her eyes are bright and energetic, and she always shows the other party's love for her. Love of life and full of hope, which is totally different from those people.

The old lady looked at Momo with a smile, and after handing her a fruit, she looked at Ling Fei and asked:

"Young man, looking for my old lady, what's the matter?"

Ling Fei raised his hand and bowed:

"I heard that Grandma Salis is the best know-it-all in Munster City. My sister and I want to buy a house. Does the old lady have any good recommendations?"

Ling Fei raised his hand and bowed:

"I heard that Grandma Salis is the best know-it-all in Munster City. My sister and I want to buy a house. Does the old lady have any good recommendations?"

Hearing Ling Fei's compliment, the old lady said a few words politely, and then asked:

"I don't know what you want?"

"The area should be larger and the environment should be quiet. It is best not to be disturbed by people."

Lingfei's answer was simple.

The old lady Sally said with a look of embarrassment:

"Young man's requirements are quite high. The residences that meet your requirements in the whole city should only be in the west city and the south city. The east city is a trade zone. Needless to say, you have seen the situation in our north city. The houses here are all in one piece. , the ground is full of sewage, it is impossible to find a quiet place."

Ling Fei nodded and agreed with the old lady.

"The west city and the east city are good places, so the price is naturally high. I wonder if you have a specific price for young people?"

The old lady continued to ask.

To be honest, Ling Fei's request for the house was mainly because of Momo, and it didn't matter to him, but when the old lady mentioned the price, he suddenly realized that he and Momo didn't seem to have much money.

"I wonder if Grandma Saris can give me an estimate of the price?"

The old lady looked at Ling Fei with a strange expression, then thought for a while and said:

"Three thousand gold coins, at least."

"What... it takes so much."

Momo, who was eating the fruit, opened his mouth wide and asked with a grunt.

The old lady really didn't pay much attention to it. She wiped the corners of Momo's mouth carefully, and then said:

"Under the influence of the port of Munster, Munster City has become an important transportation hub. The price of goods is soaring, and the land will naturally not be cheap. Besides, what you want is a house with such good conditions. At this price, I am afraid that I will personally Just go out on a horse."

Ling Fei thought for a while, nodded seriously and said:

"Then I will trouble Grandma Saris with this matter. We don't have that much money for the time being. How about it, Grandma, you can contact us first. This is the hotel we are staying in. If you find it, Grandma will come to us directly. I promise to pay within a week."

The old lady Salis looked at Ling Fei seriously, then nodded and said with a smile:

"Okay, then this business, my wife, I will take it."

Ling Fei thanked him gratefully, and then thoughtfully asked a question that he had been unable to figure out:

"Grandma Saris, I have always wanted to ask you a question since I entered the door~www.mtlnovel.com~ The old lady grinned and said:

"I know what you want to ask, do you know what a know-it-all is?"

Ling Fei thought for a while and said:

"It's the well-informed."

The old lady shook her head and said:

"You are wrong. The so-called know-it-all is a group of people who are well-informed. After understanding this truth, you should have the answer to the question you want to ask."

A dazed expression appeared on Ling Fei's face, but then he bowed respectfully to the old lady.

The old lady sat on the chair, accepted the gift calmly, and then said with a smile:

"Young man, I give you a word for free, never lose hope in life."

Ling Fei also nodded with a smile. The gains from traveling outside are far from being comparable to working behind closed doors, and rather than losing hope in life, it is better to say that his spine has been bent by reality. As a man who will face ghosts and gods sooner or later, this What is the so-called difficulty?

………

"Hello, I want to take this task."

Driss raised his head, saw a smiling, too young face, nodded politely, and subconsciously took over the task wooden card and mercenary badge in the opponent's hand, but when his eyes were off the wooden card and badge When he scanned it, his pupils shrank suddenly, and some of them couldn't believe their eyes.

As a senior task recorder of the mercenary union, his daily job is to compile and record and delete and classify countless task order changes. Generally speaking, it is a very troublesome and frustrating job, but Driss still loves this job. In this job, in addition to being able to use his statistical expertise, the generous treatment from the guild is naturally one of the reasons that cannot be ignored.
