Chapter 72: Lady Misu

As the largest city in the Bremen region, Bremen City does not have only one city gate like Hogen City.

Gao De took a detour for half an hour, chose to stagger with the caravan, and entered the city from another city gate: River Gate.

The daily passenger flow of Bremen City is huge, even after being diverted by multiple city gates, it is still the same.

So when Gao De stepped into the city with steady steps, he didn't attract anyone's attention.

Only a group of teenagers dressed simply wandering near the city gate paid attention to him.

After communicating for a while, a teenager in hemp clothes greeted him.

"Hello, sir, do you need a guide? I know most areas in the city very well, including the wandering small stalls, I know where they are today."

"Whether it's accommodation or finding someone, or finding a job, I can point the way for you."

Clearly, Gao De, who was dusty and carrying a package, showed his identity as an outsider very clearly.

Being a newcomer, it is indeed necessary to have a guide who is familiar with the local area.

Gao De thought for a while and asked the key question:

"How to charge?"

"Sir, 1 silver coin can hire me for a whole afternoon!" The hemp-clothed teenager said happily.

"Okay, then lead the way." Gao De took out 1 silver coin from his pocket and threw it to the teenager.

—Gao De, who knows the principle of not showing wealth, stuffed the money bag containing most of the gold coins into his bosom, and only put a small part of the pocket money for daily use in his pocket.

This way, when taking money, he wouldn't expose his wealth and attract the peeping of people with ulterior motives.

On the journey, Gao De had already planned where to go and what to do after entering the city.

The first thing to do after entering the city is to rent a house.

If there is no accident, he will stay in Bremen City for a long time, so staying in a hotel is not cost-effective, and the expenses are too high.

"Sir, if you want to rent a house in Bremen City, there are many choices." The teenager named Leman introduced to Gao De in detail after hearing Gao De's needs.

"First of all, the best environment, the best security, and the strictest security is the Deep Flow District, where the nobles, top rich businessmen, and mages in the city mostly live."

"However, the annual rent for a house there is over 200 Saint Xi En gold coins."

Very good, Gao De praised in his heart, not even thinking about it.

"Then there is the house in the Siren District, which is the most prosperous main commercial area in Bremen City, with convenient life and a very good environment. Of course, the rent is not cheap, and the annual rent is basically between 100 and 200 Saint Xi En gold coins."

Very good, still not even thinking about it. "Then there is the house in the Devis District. Devis Street is full of small shops. Although it is not as good as the Siren District, it is also a commercial area, with good security and convenient life."

"The annual rent for a house here is generally between 20 and 100 Saint Xi En gold coins."

"Then there is the house in the Kamond District. There are many small handicraft workshops near Kamond Street, and the residents are mostly nearby artisans."

"Or the house in the Tekton District, where the employees of the shops in the city generally live."

"The housing conditions in these two districts are lower-middle class. Of course, the price is also cheap, and the annual rent is generally around 20 gold."

"As for the cheapest house in Bremen City, it is in the Hogen District, where a house is rented for only 2 silver per week, and it only costs 5 gold and 4 silver a year."

Gao De saw it.

The district names and street names in Bremen City are directly named after the cities in the Bremen region.

And very sadly, the cheapest house in Bremen City is in the Hogen District... Gao De, who had just left Hogen City, had no intention of "revisiting his hometown" and eliminated the Hogen District without hesitation.

"Take me to Kamond Street." Gao De thought for a while and said to Leman.

"Sir, Bremen City is very large, and the distance between each district is very far. We are now at the River Gate, and it is a full six or seven kilometers from here to Kamond Street!" Leman reminded tactfully.

Good guy! Gao De was startled. At a rough glance, the size of this Bremen City might be catching up to the third or fourth-tier cities in his previous life.

"Then take a carriage there." Gao De was very obedient.

"Sir, then we can wait here for a few minutes, the next public carriage to Kamond Street will be here soon."

"Public carriage?" It sounds very fresh. Clearly, there is no such thing in Hogen City. It looks like it is exclusively for big cities like Bremen City.

"Yes, the short-distance public carriage is 2 copper coins, the full-distance is 4 copper coins. It only costs 4 copper coins per person from here to the Kamond District. If you hire a taxi carriage, it will cost at least 16 copper." Leman calculated for Gao De.

"Okay, then wait."

After waiting for about three or four minutes, accompanied by the creaking sound of wheels, a carriage shaped like a platform pulled by two horses appeared in the field of vision and stopped near the River Gate.

Nearly twenty people walked down from the carriage.

The carriage is double-decker, with the door at the back and fifteen active windows.

Twelve people can sit inside, and fourteen people can sit on the second floor, which can be raised and lowered by a ladder.

The driver sits on the roof of the carriage.

There is also a staff member collecting the fare next to the door.

This really made Gao De see something fresh.

"Two people, go to Kamond Street." Gao De took out 1 silver coin and handed it to the staff member collecting the fare.

"Full-distance ticket, 4 copper, two people 8 copper, find you 4 copper!" The staff member took out 4 copper coins from the money box and handed them to Gao De.

"Okay." Gao De took the money and took Leman to the second floor of the carriage.

After staying in place for about ten minutes, the carriage was full of passengers and started to set off.

Walking along the street, there are houses with chimneys on the roadside, and some have courtyards like gardens.

Passengers come and go along the way, getting on and off.

Because this kind of public carriage has no so-called stations, it has a fixed route, and it stops when called on the road, and gets on when called.

The journey was smooth and there were not many twists and turns. After about forty minutes, Gao De arrived at Kamond Street.

"Lead the way, go to 267 Kamond Street." After getting off the bus, Gao De's goal was clear.

"No problem, sir, please follow me." Leman said confidently.

Under Leman's guidance, Gao De came to 267 Kamond Street, a semi-detached two-story small building.

The small building has fine carved decorations and a stone base.

Various flowers are planted on both sides of the door, which shows that the owner of the house is a person with taste.

The windows of the small building are equipped with linen curtains, which flutter gently with the wind.

There are also two wisteria vines growing all the way at the door, entwining each other until the window, adding a bit of wild interest to the whole building.

Gao De stepped slowly onto the steps in front of the small building, raised his right hand, and knocked on the wooden door lightly.

After more than ten seconds, the heavy wooden door was opened, and a woman wearing a silk robe reaching her ankles stood at the door, looking at Gao De with great vigilance.

"Who are you?"

"Hello, ma'am, I'm looking for Lady Misu." Gao De smiled.
