A Wizard's Survival Guide to the 20th Century

The next morning, the two of them had breakfast in the hotel.

Levi didn't have much to do today, he planned to walk around the city.

Since he didn't have to contact people from the police station today, Levi was not as cautious as before when he went to see the police. Instead, he went out as Ji Bochang, and Charlie was with him.

In theory, Levi thought he was safe for the time being.

First of all, he did not reveal the identity of the wizard, which means that Levi is not in the wizard forest of this city; secondly, Levi has no conflicts with the Robbins family and Metalia family for the time being, and Levi does not think that the other party will be idle. Attack yourself when nothing happens.

Taylor Street is located in the center of the city. It is extremely bustling and the streets are full of people and cars. The image of autumn has spread here. There are scattered yellow leaves on the ground, which have been swept off the asphalt road and piled on both sides of the stone sidewalk.

Levi looked to both sides. Huge and tall buildings abounded. They seemed to be Gulliver traveling through the land of giants.

Even the shops on the street are much more upscale, with jewelry stores, high-end clothing and high-end restaurants becoming the mainstream here.

"Since the diamond mines in the southern continent were discovered, diamonds have become the most popular jewelry now." Charlie pointed to a jewelry store and said, "You see, young couples getting married now like to buy a pair of diamond rings."

"How do you know so much?" Levi asked with a smile.

"Don't forget, my job is as a newsboy, and being your servant is just a part-time job." Charlie said proudly, "Every newspaper in the city has to go through our hands before being delivered to you."

"By the way, I heard that Dyers Company is soliciting a lot of money for an advertising slogan about diamonds, and they offered a bonus of one thousand Philippine dollars. Sir, if it were you, what would you write?"

Why is it another thousand Philippine dollars? Is this a lucky number?

Levi smiled and said with a hint of mystery: "Diamonds are forever, and one will last forever."

Charlie was stunned, and then said: "I think if you run for election, the bonus will be yours."

Levi smiled and shook his head. The figure of one thousand pesos already made him a little scared.

Moreover, Li Wei doesn't like the money for the time being, so there is no need to go to such trouble.

The two were walking along Taylor Street. There was also a street band here. Occasionally, passers-by would give them a few coins, and the band would immediately play a few special tunes to express their gratitude.

What a peaceful and peaceful scene... Levi sighed.

"By the way, Charlie, I don't know what your family is like." Levi turned to Charlie and said, "Why do you want to work as a newsboy? Is there any difficulty at home?"

"Ah... this, my home..." After hearing this, Charlie suddenly lowered his head and started stumbling.

This only made Levi more interested.

He thought for a while, and he didn't have much to do today anyway, and since Levi wanted to help Charlie, he naturally wanted to get his family's opinion.

"Can I go to your house and have a look?" Levi asked suddenly.

"Huh? But, my house is... very dirty, sir, and there is nothing to entertain guests." Charlie was startled and said quickly.

"Don't worry, do you think I'm like one of those high-ranking Hall Street elites?" Levi smiled, "And I also have something I want to talk to your family about."

"What are you talking about, sir?" Charlie asked curiously.

"I hope I can help you go to school." Levi said with a smile, "Of course you have to consult your family for their opinions."

Charlie was stunned for a long time after hearing this. He thought for a while and finally said: "Thank you for your generosity...Mr."

"If that's the case, of course, but can you let me go in first and talk to my father? I hope to make some preparations in advance."

"Of course." Levi said, "Since you agree, just lead the way."

……

The two people took a carriage and soon arrived at the outskirts of the city.

It's not far from the station. No wonder Charlie always goes there to sell newspapers.

When we arrived here, the bustling scene just now disappeared without a trace. The houses on both sides became low and dilapidated. In some places, traces of repair could still be seen, like unexpected patches on old clothes.

Charlie told Levi that these houses were built a long time ago, almost when gold mines were first discovered here.

"That was... more than 60 years ago, which is indeed a long time for a house like this." Levi nodded and thought about it. This is equivalent to the urban village built during the third reform period in his previous life. It is indeed similar to what it looks like here.

But maybe it's even better, because the stench outside the carriage has already drifted over. The planning here is not as scientific as in the city. There is sewage on the roads, even in the drainage outlets. The roads are erratic and there are sewage everywhere Hanging clothes to dry.

Following Charlie's guidance, the carriage finally stopped in front of a small, low house.

The house is gray, the color of cement. The door of the house is just a big iron sheet hanging diagonally at the door. It seems to have no anti-theft ability at all.

Levi got off the carriage, looked at Charlie's house, and shook his head.

This is the richest city in the richest province in the world. Even here, there are still such poor people. Just now, the urban area where they are located has become like a colorful dream.

Charlie asked Levi to wait a moment, and then ran into the house.

Levi stood there, thinking about what to tell Charlie's parents later...

While being able to go to school is a good thing for Charlie, it's not free, it's more like a trade.

Levi hopes that he can rely on Charlie to get in touch with the world's elite circles in the future. After all, he himself does not plan to take the Ivy League exam in this world.

This also means that Charlie will officially become Levi's subordinate, which is a bit too early for Charlie, who is only 13 years old this year.

But Levi thought that if Charlie were older, it would be too late to enter school.

This will not only make it difficult for him to enter higher education, but also make it difficult for him to interact with other students.

Levi stood at the door thinking, but before long, Charlie came out of the house again and invited him in.
