First Wizarding World War

The Champs-Elysees has a lane that can accommodate sixteen rows of carriages, and there are more than five picometers of pedestrian paths on both sides. From any angle, you can see the magnificent Gate of Glory.

The Gate of Glory is right in the middle of the Champs-Elysees. It is a miracle bestowed on Strasbourg by the Lord of Glory, one of the nine gods.

It is a square building with four arches opening in four directions.

The Gate of Glory has a very famous miracle. Anyone who enters will randomly walk out of one of the four doors instead of pointing in the direction of advance.

It is said that the direction indicates the best fortune of the pedestrian that day.

In addition to the Gate of Glory that cannot be ignored, there are many shops on both sides of the Champs-Elysees. Very few shops are decorated with high-level alchemy-made, outrageously expensive crystal glass, showing the luxurious goods in the shop to every pedestrian.

In addition to this street, there is no other place in the empire that is so noisy and lively.

Anne de Breton smiled and said, "Go to No. 58!"

The carriage rumbled along the Champs-Elysees for a short distance and soon turned into an alley.

It is not accurate to call it an alley, because it is big enough for two carriages to drive side by side.

The alley is not deep. When the carriage reached the end, there was an independent three-story building. In front of it was a small square that could park five or six carriages. There was an entrance door on the front, a few steps in front of the door, and a pier door on the side for carriages to pass, which looked very impressive.

Anne got off the carriage, and Charlotte could only follow.

He watched Anne stretch out her hand and press the door of the building to open automatically, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Charlotte knew that this was a low-level alchemy, and its name was - unlocking.

He really didn't expect that a noble lady like Anne de Breton would study this kind of magic.

When Charlotte thought about it again, the mechanical beetle that tracked Mr. Yang Mills had a new understanding of Miss Anne de Breton.

Anne pushed open the door and walked in. She smiled at Charlotte and introduced the house to Charlotte who entered the room later: "This house is a recent inheritance of a distant relative of mine. He dislikes the strong business atmosphere here, the noisy environment, and the lack of quietness, so he has always wanted to sell it."

"You also know that the shops on Champs-Elysees are always in high demand, but the houses are always unpopular, so he doesn't ask for a high price."

"My relative quoted a price of 200 écu, but I know he is in a hurry to use the money recently, so 150 écu is also acceptable."

Charlotte thought to herself: "My entire net worth is only 80 écu. Is this also a price I can afford? Miss Anne has some misunderstandings about my financial situation, or is she not sensitive to the number of money?"

Anne seemed to know what Charlotte was thinking, raised her beautiful eyebrows, and said: "He accepts installment payments, and you can move in here with a down payment of only 50 écu."

"I can even persuade the other party to give up the interest on the installments."

Charlotte followed Anne around the first floor and fell in love with this house.

There is a very large banquet hall on the first floor. Perhaps in the eyes of the nobles, this banquet hall is shabby because it can only hold a small dance party with no more than 50 people. But in the eyes of Charlotte who traveled from Earth, this banquet hall is ridiculously large. It is unobstructed and has an area of ​​300 to 400 square meters. It is a circle smaller than a standard basketball court, but it is enough to play half a game.

This is not all of the first floor. It also has a living room, a dining room and two study rooms. On one side of the dining room, there is a staircase that obviously leads to the basement. According to the customs of the Fars Empire, the basement must have a kitchen and a storage room.

As for the staircase leading upstairs, it is on one side of the banquet hall, completely separate from the staircase leading to the basement.

Charlotte thought to herself, "It's impossible to buy such a big house on Earth for only two or three million, even in the countryside."

"Besides, it allows installment payment without interest. The seller is simply the biggest philanthropist I have ever met since I traveled through time."

"But where can I get the remaining 70 ecu?"

"With my 37th-class civil servant, 6 fuls and 15 centimes a week, how long will it take to pay it back?"

Charlotte spent a few seconds calculating the numbers in her head, and was suddenly shocked.

With his civil servant salary, he could pay off the house debt in less than three years!

This time is more than ten times shorter than the mortgage term on Earth that he had just thought of.

Charlotte couldn't help but sigh secretly: "The time travelers are really the protagonists!"

"Praise the true gods."

"Praise Miss Anne too."

Charlotte suppressed her excitement and said: "My weekly salary is probably only six florins. Can the other party accept a long payment period of several years?"

Anne Brittany chuckled and said: "Of course there is no problem. Anyone who can pay off the house debt within ten years can be considered a high-quality buyer."

"But..."

"Mr. Mecklen is already a civil servant of the 37th grade? You don't look like you graduated for long?"

Charlotte smiled slightly and said: "Two years after graduation."

Anne Brittany exclaimed, her eyes were full, her cheeks flushed, and she liked him even more.

A young talent who can be promoted to the 37th grade civil servant two years after graduation is obviously more charismatic than an ordinary civil servant who is still working as a first-level clerk and waiting for a promotion every three years.

This house is quite "old". It has been through wind and rain and still looks very solid. In the Fars Empire, hundreds of years old buildings are everywhere. The old houses will not reduce their value, but will become a selling point that people talk about because of their long history.

Charlotte did not go to see the second and third floors. She finalized some details with Anne, took out ten fifty-foreigner banknotes from the gains from selling the multi-headed flails and handed them to the girl.

Anne called the coachman in, gave him instructions, and the coachman drove away.

Although someone occasionally came to clean this house, it still accumulated a thin layer of dust and was not suitable for staying for a long time.

Charlotte very gentlemanly invited the other party to have a cup of coffee nearby.

Anne also readily agreed.

There will never be a lack of tasteful cafes on the Elysees Pastoral Street. Although few nobles patronize it, the empire's writers, painters, sculptors, musicians, and even orators love to patronize the cafes here. Many cafes have even left behind these people's famous works and stories.

Charlotte took Anne and did not walk far. They found a cafe called Cat and Clover a few dozen meters away from No. 58.

Many things in this world are similar to those on Earth, such as cats, but the domestic cats in this world are not as diverse as those on Earth, and they have not been bred into various beautiful colors.
