We entered the Guild Hall.
It's a three-story building, and there seems to be a 'Merchant Guild' on the ground floor.
Looking for the silver-haired receptionist I asked my uncle at the 'Ikayaki' stall, he was at one of two contact points.
I went to the receptionist's desk.
"Welcome. Oh, who's traveling? Are you a merchant?
He greeted me with a nice smile and a firm voice that made me want to say the basics of customer service.
"Yes. It is. My name is Grimm. Best regards,"
"Nice to meet you. My name is Gemma. What can I do for you this time?
"Yes, I am interested in purchasing a mansion that can be used as a warehouse to store purchased items, could you please introduce me to the property?
"Well you're young...... that's amazing. You're a big merchant to buy a mansion."
Gemma is looking at me like a mother praising her child for some reason......
"No,... we were just lucky enough to have a last-minute deal"
"Well, it's promising after all. Which one of you is it?
"Yes, it's the Pigseed Borderline."
"Uh... are you okay? I heard you were attacked by the devil. Plus all the towns along the Great River are closed..."
Gemma turned and clouded her face, giving me a worrying look.
"Yes. There has been a lot of damage and I was fine...... I'm also having trouble getting enough supplies, so I'm going to buy what I need and bring it back"
"Well, that's great. This is the merchant's book. I will work with you responsibly. What property would you like? Some chambers of commerce deal with real estate listings...... just for the record, I can't recommend much. I think I can pluck it. Guild properties can guide you at the right price!
That's what Mr. Gemma said, smiling.
I also wondered if the guild receptionist could say something bad about the Chamber of Commerce, a member of the guild... maybe it's a really bad Chamber of Commerce.
Intuitively, I think Mr. Gemma can be trusted, so let's leave it to her.
"Thank you. Hopefully, close to the harbor... somewhat large... it's like a mansion..."
"Right. If it's close to the harbor and it's like a mansion...... I think it's quite a value...... how much is your budget?
"There is no particular budget. I think if you have a good property, you can buy it even if it's expensive"
When I said that, Mr. Gemma was surprised for a moment, but soon pretended to be at peace.
"You mean more quality oriented than budget...... You're really great even though you're young. I'm going to look for some materials, please wait a moment."
That said, Mr. Gemma, once back down.
Waiting, looking around... it's suddenly starting to feel noisy outside.
I was a little curious, so I went over to the entrance and took a peek outside, and the guard was rushing around.
Is something wrong?
"Thank you for waiting, Mr. Grimm"
Looks like Mr. Gemma's back.
"It seems to be noisy out there... is something wrong?
I was a little concerned, so I asked Mr. Gemma.
Somehow the Alliance staff was in a hurry.
"Yes, I think there's another thief out there."
"Stolen...?
"Yes. Recently, a bandit known as a fornicator has stolen goods and coins from chambers of commerce and merchants' mansions to distribute them to the poor. Just for the record, the only people targeted are bad reputation chambers of commerce."
Gemma spoke with a troubled face but seemed just a little happy.
Somehow...... it's a pleasant atmosphere to punish the Bad Chamber of Commerce.
Speaking of which, the floaters said earlier that the prostitutes would give us food.
Stealing is a criminal activity... but my honest feeling is that it is far more useful to people than the guards and guards of this city...
"In the area close to the port, these are the only three houses now. It's just... they were all long and short..."
That's what Mr. Gemma said, but he gave me a description of the three properties.
The first property is along Main Street, close to the harbor, but it's a small property, and it's a store property.
Based on the property for sale along Main Street, it seems to be quite valuable, but the intersection is narrow and elongated, making it difficult to use.
Because it was two floors long, if I lived upstairs and warehoused the first floor, I wouldn't be able to use it the way I wanted.
Because of the small size and difficulty of using the property, the price seems to be high because it faces Main Street.
They say it's priced at 10 million gols.
The second seems to be a large warehouse in the Lower Town area, but an accident property where a family who used to live here was tragically killed by bandits and took all their merchandise.
More importantly, it is a property in an area that is considerably insecure, which means it cannot be recommended.
It's a thousand square meters, about three hundred tsubos, with a million and a half million gols.
Cheap, but no one seems to try to buy it.
The third looks like a mansion in an intermediate area down south close to East Gate Square on Main Street.
It was the mansion of a big Chamber of Commerce meeting, but it was with the property that the Alliance bought up after leaving the city.
It's just that it's also close to the lower town area earlier, and security isn't very good.
And they haven't had a buyer for over a decade, and the guild hasn't been able to manage it because they can't get around.
The building is damaged and the grass looks like Bobo's condition.
The site covers an area of 3,000 square meters of about nine hundred tsubos and is worth the price for ten million gol.
I wanted to see the site, so if I asked you to get a map, Gemma was going to show me around.
She told me that she would guide me through this, so I decided to go check it out right away.
I apologize to the Nears, but I decided to continue to have them leave a message at 'Home Carriage'.
He said he would show us around in the small carriage that the Alliance has.
Totally insider with the realtor.
The first property, it's definitely for stores, and it feels harsh for my purpose.
It's only superficial that we want to use it as a warehouse for our products, and we want to make sure that our protected children have a place to live.
It's just a hard store to use... I think it would be nice to face Main Street if we were to do business in the future.
Most of all, I feel like 10 million golls is expensive at this size.
Sure...... I think Torcone's "Fairy Pavilion" in "City of Magne" was also 10 million goalies, because it's bigger than this property.
Well, I guess the market price of real estate varies from region to region.
Next, entering the intermediate area that went straight south from the location of this property, there was a third introduced property.
Quite the size of a mansion, but the grass is definitely in badass condition at Bobo.
There is also a large mother house and a building like a servant's quarters.
A barn or a warehouse-like building also stands.
And some buildings seem to have been stables.
For once, there seems to be a whole street of equipment.
The mansion sits on the southeast corner of a block surrounded by roads.
It might be a good idea to call it a corner.
I thought this was the only place that was rough, and there are several houses around that feel rough.
There seems to be quite a few vacant houses.
Is it still because of insecurity...... I guess it's a less popular place to say intermediate areas.
This could be a good place.
Even if it's rough, we can clean it up in an instant.
Finally, I went further south to see the second property introduced.
For once, I have a warehouse building... it's rough and pretty bad here too.
And the guys with the bad gala, they're usually sloppy.
As I approached him to look inside, the men gathered.
"Hey! Brother, what can I do for you! This is our territory! If you want to hurt, just disappear!
A man approached me with a stick.
It feels like a "hit character”... funny, but lightly irritating.
"This isn't yours. I showed them who wanted to buy it. Out of the way, please!
Gemma stepped out in front of the men.
"Oh my God! We live here! Brother, if you buy this property, you're gonna regret it! Think about it!
That's what the guy with the stick said, he kept his face close to me...
I'm so gunned down...
Uh, I want to hit you......
I can't rub it right now, so I decided to pull it up for a while.
"Don't those guards take control?
I tried to run into simple questions.
"Yeah, the guards in this city, unfortunately, aren't functioning properly. Since the change of the guard chief a year ago, the guards have become more like gorots. Decent guards are either quitting or forced to labor under the guise of innocence."
"Uh... that's... that's all that goes through?
I was shocked.
Imprisoned innocent... forced labor... what is it!?
"The beginning is that the deputy who was holding this city was lost a year ago. I wore money to put everything in my pocket... The rumor of wet clothes is also deeply ingrained. It was a year ago that the previous deputies were replaced and a new deputy arrived. From there, it seemed terrible already, and it was in a state where decent officials and guards could stop or be forced to labor by making up their sins. Someone I know has left the city."
"Is a new deputy changing HR the way you like it?
"Yes. Actually, the previous guild chief of our 'Merchant Guild' also gave an opinion to the deputy and was fired. The Guild Commander now is the one the deputy brought in."
"Ain't nobody going to sue the 'Realm Capital'?
"Some of you sued me in civilian, but it looks like they captured me the other way around. Rumor has it that the 'Territorial Capital' is worse. Lords have changed people... Not only this city, but this entire realm, is in a terrible state where tyranny and injustice prevail. That's why some people can only resist because they're like thieves."
I see...... the bad reputation of the Earl of Helsing territory still seemed true.
I guess some escaped from this realm.
It may have spread a bad reputation from there as well.
I came back to the Guild Hall with Mr. Gemma as I sorted out my unmistakable feelings.
