Mystery: The High-Dimensional Overlooker
Chapter 202 Low price
Chapter 202 Low price
The sun rises slowly from the east, spreading the brilliance of the "eternal blazing sun" on the earth.
Since the weather is still relatively cold now, the sun's rays are shining on the ground, adding a bit of cold brilliance to this suffering land.
A South Continent resident who got up early and had rough hands and feet carried the things he needed for his work and was going to find some work at the dock near the sea near the Pas River Valley.
He rubbed his eyes while walking forward. When he passed an alley, he yawned and moved his shoulders, but after the corner of his eye swept across the alley, his eyes suddenly froze. .
"what--"
The honest and honest Southern Continent resident couldn't help screaming after seeing the scene, and fled to the side like crazy.
As he ran wildly, he shouted:
"Monsters, there are monsters!"
"Someone died!"
In the alley he passed by, there was a corpse with his hands stretched out and placed stiffly on both sides of his body, showing a cross on the ground.
Around this corpse, pieces of hairy corpse with obvious twists and evil tendencies were thrown around unevenly.
The whole scene was full of bloody rituals. Blood was smeared all around, forming a huge bloody "cross" totem with the corpse!
The shattered body parts and the dried blood dripping everywhere are quite symbolic, and there are some confusing patterns on some dark wooden strips growing on this corpse.
It seems that as long as you look up for a while, the whole person will go crazy because of it.
After the Southern Continent resident left for a while, several people in ragged black robes walked towards the alley indifferently but fanatically. They pulled out the sharp structure that seemed to be made of wood from the corpse with their hands, and fondled it frantically. kissing.
On the ground in the alley, dots of red patterns bloomed around, making the scene even more sinister.
…………
"You plan to buy a piece of land here? Are you going to open factories and plantations here?"
Some chunky, but quite formally dressed men from the Northern Continent couldn't help repeating what the middle-aged man in a suit had said to him just now, and couldn't help but feel a little unbelievable.
This is crazy! Who would come to the Southern Continent to buy land at this time?
If those who are still in the Northern Continent don't know the current situation of the Southern Continent, that's fine. Because of the lack of information, in their eyes, the Southern Continent may still be a treasure land full of money and wealth.
But for a businessman whose skin in front of his eyes was obviously darker due to exposure to the sun and who had obviously been doing business in the surrounding area for a long time, this employee believed that it was impossible for him to be unaware of the recent situation in the southern continent.
Recently, there have been constant collisions and frictions between the East and West Balam regions. This seems to be caused by the conflicts between the countries in the Northern Continent in the colonies.
This alone is enough to make people anxious, not to mention the factors of various local organizations.
East Balam now has the raging Rose Sect, and West Balam has chaotic factors such as the Aurora Society, pirates, and illegal colonists from various countries. The man who is responsible for helping the Northern Continent Company conduct local real estate transactions obviously did not expect to be involved in such a situation. Under such circumstances, which wealthy businessman would buy land here to establish some industries?
Even though workers and serfs could indeed be found here at relatively low prices before, everything has changed now.
Maybe the real estate you bought with all your money today will be burned down by the "Creator Salvation Society" tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, your property will be robbed by members of the "Rose School"!
The company employee subconsciously thought that if the company hadn't offered many times the remuneration and he couldn't go back because of the contract with the company, he would have wanted to return to the Kingdom of Loen right away and live a relatively stable life...
As far as he knew, even though Backlund of the Loen Kingdom had suffered a fatal blow, the middle class people living in the "Jowood" district and the gentlemen in the "Queen" district had not been harmed at all!
After working here for a few years, he felt that he could also go back to Backlund and buy a house in Jorwood District!
The employee thought for a moment subconsciously and swallowed what he almost blurted out just now.
If he can sell one more piece of land, he can get an extra commission and return to his hometown earlier.Of course he would not take the liberty to remind the businessman in front of him what he knew.
"Look at what kind of land you need? Our company's business scope is very large. Whether it is East Balam or West Balam, our company has a certain inventory of land titles."
"The land price in West Balam is relatively lower. If you want to open a factory or plantation here, you can buy a factory several times the size of the Loen Kingdom for less than 1 gold pounds. The land is used.”
The employee's tone is quite sincere: "However, the land price in East Balam is higher than that in West Balam, but East Balam is still safer. After all, there are Churches of Evernight and Beyonders there, unlike West Balam now... ..."
As he spoke, the employee also sighed.
Klein held his left hand behind his back, and his gloves lit up slightly; but his face was not touched at all. He casually flipped through the booklet in front of him with the land prices in the two regions written clearly with his own hands. After hearing the employee's words, his His ears moved slightly.
Extraordinary? Is the concept of extraordinary people so common here?
Klein felt a little confused for a moment. You must know that although more people now know that there are extraordinary people, they are smart enough not to talk nonsense outside, for fear that they will be invited to have tea by official extraordinary people.
But why is it that a random person here can use such a casual tone to say information about Extraordinary people?Is the knowledge of mysticism so popular here?
However, he is from Loen, and he only mentioned the Goddess of Night and not the Lord of Storms, so he shouldn't be a believer of other gods, and he should believe in the goddess...
Klein, who used the "mind-reading" ability in "Creeping Hunger", was a little cautious.
"Are you a believer of the goddess?"
He said with a gentle face and the tone of Dwayne Dantès, looking at the real estate employee in front of him, with a slight smile in his words:
"I think people who believe in goddesses are rare here."
While maintaining a gentle and elegant smile, maintaining the persona of Dwayne Dantès, a middle-aged gentleman, he said to the real estate employee in front of him. Klein was going to talk to this employee to see if he could find any other clues.
"Klein", on the other hand, used the shell of "Dwayne Dantès" to silently analyze the employee's performance with a calm attitude.
Although he is not a real psychologist, he has made more speculations about people's micro-expressions and psychological changes after being promoted to the "Faceless Man" and using the souls grazing in the "Crawling Hunger".
...In terms of movement habits and tone of voice, he should be closer to the Loen people. However, this is just my guess. Maybe people from other countries also like Loen's culture and deliberately talk according to Loen's habits.
There will always be people who like other countries’ cultures everywhere…
"How do you know?" The company employee looked at the gentleman in front of him with some surprise on his face.
Seeing this, Dwayne Dantès took his time and tapped four times on his chest, drawing a "Crimson Moon" on his chest.
It seems that this person also believes in the goddess. He may have guessed it... Seeing this scene, the employee couldn't help but understand.
The employee became more relaxed because of the gentleman in front of him. He stood up, took some paper and pen from the side, and complained casually:
"Praise the goddess. Oh, stop talking, it's really unlucky. I didn't expect this place to be like this. Speaking of which, you are the first goddess believer I have seen here. Most of the others are In East Balam, unlike me, I have to endure danger here.”
Knowing that this Loen compatriot in front of him has the same beliefs as himself, this employee is obviously more casual. Of course, there are also factors that Klein hinted to this employee with the help of the grazing "psychologist" .
Endure the danger... Klein put down the booklet in his hand and gently tapped the table with the knuckles of his right hand. He deliberately asked with a somewhat confused look:
"I remember that the law and order here in Balam was pretty good before? I also stayed in East Balam for a while before."
The experience of doing business in East Balam according to other identities belongs to Dwayne Dantès's character. Klein plans to start with the details to make this character more full, so that when he returns to Backlund in the future, he will not be found to be wrong.
"You haven't been here for a long time, have you? Damn, East Balam is not bad, after all, there is a church with a goddess there. But there are many terrorist organizations attacking West Balam all day long, like the Aurora Society Ah, an organization composed of natives who believe in the god of death, now a group of people change from time to time around."
The employee curled his lips and said in a tone full of helplessness: "Haha, I heard that when the indigenous people in the Southern Continent heard about the evil god called the True Creator, they established some kind of 'Creator Salvation Society' here."
"I think these guys are just rebels. If they were ruled by us honestly, how could there be so many things happening in the Southern Continent?"
"We brought civilization to them, and they still haven't thanked me!"
Being colonized... Bayam's resistance troops flashed through his mind, making Klein sigh in his heart.
Without waiting for a pause, he looked at the staff in front of him: "The land on the Xingxing Plateau only costs 5000 pounds?"
5000 pounds can only buy a small manor near Backlund, but it can buy a rather large piece of land in the Southern Continent.
What makes Klein feel a little strange the most is that, not to mention the range that is not commensurate with the price, this land is located in the lower part of the Star Plateau and is surrounded by rivers and lakes.
This geographical location is the most suitable place for transportation in this era of relatively low productivity.Such a good location, why only 5000 pounds?
Is there an ancient evil spirit that has been sealed here, or have all the homeowners died in it? Is this a haunted house?
Klein subconsciously associated it with "unlucky".
"It's still pretty good here, but there may be some... security issues."
The employee's mouth curved slightly downward, but he still explained to Dwayne Dantès in front of him with all his heart:
"The law and order here is not very good, but there are also several villages and churches of 'Eternal Blazing Sun'. Generally speaking, there will be no problems, and these documents have been officially recognized by the local colonial Intis , and the notarization of the Church of the Eternal Sun."
"However, many people think it is unsafe here, so the price has been reduced from 7500 gold pounds to 5000 pounds. Haha, now we are losing money selling this..."
The employee paused for a moment, seeing that the middle-aged gentleman in front of him seemed to be a little moved, and couldn't help but strike while the iron was hot:
"This land deed is now owned by our company - if you are interested in this land, I can arrange a boat for you to see the situation here. What do you think?"
"If you are willing to buy directly, well, I can reduce the price by an additional 100 pounds, which is the limit of the company."
Seeing the gentleman in front of him nodding slightly, the employee wanted to remind something, but in the end he suppressed his throbbing conscience.
Some of the land deeds in the company's inventory have not been sold, which is a big loss for their company. Their company does not have the ability to set up factories in the southern continent. Putting them here can only occupy the company's funds in vain.
It is worth mentioning that they only spent 4200 pounds when accepting the land deed, because there are now rumors that demons and ghosts will appear here. Feeling guilty, the employee said tentatively.
"of course can."
Klein could see through the little thought of the employee in front of him at a glance, but he didn't care: "Then please arrange the time of the ship. If there is any news, you can come to this place to notify me."
It seems that there are extraordinary events in the local area that make many people afraid to take advantage of this, including a considerable number of extraordinary people.
But I can move the "Aurora Society" who have no place to live here, I can build a factory here, or I can hide my power here...
I'm not going to reproduce the South American plantation here, at least provide basic wages to the workers here... It's really difficult, and I can't let my funds fall into a situation where I can't make ends meet...
Ha, I have become despicable too.
Thinking of himself calculating wages for the residents of the colony, Klein grinned like a "clown".
He laughed to himself in his heart, reminding himself that he could not lose a person's most basic conscience.
Of course, the premise is to take care of the Church of the Sun here, well, it’s another expense, and I feel a little distressed...
However, the price of this large piece of land is quite low. It would be good if there are demons and alien species here. I can take this opportunity to lower the price. The funds given to me by the goddess are not so sufficient...
Speaking of which, I was considered an Beyonder for the living corpse crew before, and the money was approved. I guess the church didn't find out that I reported false accounts, right?
Klein thought with some uneasy conscience and handed the note with the address of the hotel where he currently lived to the employee opposite.
