Chapter 85 Human Nature
"Airship?!" Gothe's eyes widened.
Even if we know that in a world with extraordinary power, the point method of the technology tree will inevitably be greatly different from that of the earth.
But when he first heard about the existence of the airship, he was still shocked.
A world that doesn’t even have cars or trains, but “airship technology” is the first thing to be pointed out?
It’s really yours!
"Comparatively speaking, airships are the fastest, safest and most comfortable way to travel."
Gao De suppressed the turmoil in his heart, "Then why I have been in Bremen for a month and I have never seen an airship."
Pierre sighed and said helplessly: "Because our country is just a small principality."
"So, Sean's airships are not only backward, but also very small in number. They are all in the hands of the government, large commercial firms, and nobles, and have not yet been involved in the civilian field."
"The price of an airship is extremely high, and it is not just a matter of buying it. It also costs a lot of maintenance and repair costs every year, and it is equipped with corresponding staff, and the cost of use is extremely high."
"If airships want to be popularized in the civilian field, they must have enough passenger traffic to ensure no loss or even profit."
"This is simply impossible in a small principality like ours."
"Because Xi'an is poor and the people in Xi'an are also poor, most people cannot afford to take an airship." Pierre said, showing his hands.
"So, in the city of Bremen, there are no airships at all."
Say this, Gothe understands.
Just like on Earth, only a few cities have "airports".
Even if it is a pie falling from the sky, it is not an easy thing to get it into your mouth. Gothe couldn't help but sigh.
「推荐信」可靠于否还没搞清楚，下一步的问题就已经提前摆在明面上了：
去圣西恩城的路途太过遥远且曲折了。
From Hogan City to Bremen City, he can also follow the caravan.
It was difficult to find a caravan that could take him on a journey from the city of Saint-Sien in the city of Bremen.
The most convenient way is to take an airship. But where did the airship come from?
"Let's go, I'll treat you to lunch today!" Pierre didn't think so much as Gothe, so he stood up and greeted happily: "Boy, if you have nothing to do in the future, you can come to me more often, just to chat."
The little old man has no relatives. Since he ran away to Bremen, he has even lost his grocery store business. He has nothing to do every day and is very lonely.
Gaude's visit made him open up the conversation.
"If you don't mind me eating and drinking, I will definitely come more often," Gothe also said with a smile: "If you come back later, there will be no good wine."
Pierre is also the first acquaintance he has met since coming to this world, and he has some special emotions in it.
"I live in No. 437, Carmond, and work as a restoration craftsman to make a small living." Gothe also briefly introduced his situation to Pierre.
It turns out that Pierre is indeed wealthy, and he invited him to an extremely high-end restaurant for lunch.
Eating is even more luxurious:
4 silver pieces of custard, 12 silver pieces of grain-raised chicken, 4 silver pieces of ham pate and 6 copper pieces, 8 silver pieces of asparagus, and 3 silver pieces of 6 copper pieces of cordial.
A total of 1 gold and 12 silver.
This is placed in the small restaurant diagonally opposite Mrs. Misou's house. It is enough for Gaode to have lunch for a month and there is still leftover.
Having had enough wine and food, Goude bid farewell to Pierre for the time being.
But his journey today did not end here.
In the afternoon.
Carmond No. 267.
One month later, Gao De knocked on the door of Mrs. Misou's house again.
"Mr. Google, what's the matter?" Mrs. Misu opened the door, a little surprised.
"Madam, there is a little trouble." Gothe showed an anxious expression.
"Huh?!" Mrs. Misu was very attentive and greeted her quickly: "What's the trouble, come in and talk about it."
Gaode walked into the room neatly and sat down in the reception area.
Mrs. Misu was not in the mood to make tea anymore. She sat down opposite Gao De and asked with concern: "Did you encounter any trouble?"
"I think your business is doing well during this period. Is there something wrong with the house?"< br/>
Gothe shook his head, took out a letter that he had prepared long ago from his arms, and handed it to Mrs. Misu, "Madam, please read it first."
At the same time, while his mind was turning, mana flashed from the spell model.
The door that had not been closed by Mrs. Misou was closed the next moment, blocking out possible prying eyes.
【Switching Technique】.
Seeing Gothe's serious face, Mrs. Misu quickly took the letter and unfolded it to read it carefully.
As soon as she took one look, she couldn't help but subconsciously exclaimed, and looked up at Gothe in astonishment.
Gothe didn’t say anything and motioned to Mrs. Misu to continue looking down.
Seeing this, Mrs. Misu lowered her head silently and looked at the letter in her hand carefully.
Gaode was silent on the side, observing Mrs. Misu's expression calmly, trying to detect some changes in the other party's mentality.
The letter he gave was the letter that Master Seda planned to send to Mrs. Misu, but failed to send it.
Judging from the content of the letter, it is simply an expression of longing and a report on one's recent situation, without revealing much information.
Although he didn't see any disadvantages to himself from the letter, Gao De was still worried about it and was not sure how much specific information Mrs. Misu knew.
It's useless to just waste your time like this. You can only bite the bullet and come to the door proactively, and then "show off the tricks".
In the final analysis, apart from the apprentices in the medicine garden who know the truth, in the eyes of outsiders, ninety-nine out of a hundred people would not think that Master Seda would be killed by an inconspicuous little apprentice of his.
This is the natural amulet of high virtue.
Fortunately, the worst case scenario expected by Gaode did not occur.
When Mrs. Misu read the contents of the letter in detail, the expression on her face had become unreadable, as if she had expected something, and was a little sad.
She raised her head and looked at Gao De: "Why is my husband's letter here with you?"
Gao De said "honestly": "Madam, in fact, I lied to you. I am not from "My true identity is actually Master Seda's apprentice."
"Are you my husband's apprentice?" Mrs. Misu frowned.
Gothe nodded, thought for a while, and decided to test the situation that Mrs. Misu knew, and then selectively told the situation about Master Seda in Hogan City.
“The Master Master owned a medicine garden in Hogan City and needed apprentices to take care of it. He was kind-hearted and saw that there were many beggars in the city who had neither father nor mother. One day they died on the streets, so he brought a few beggars back to the medicine garden, including me.”
"After taking us back to the medicine garden, he accepted us as apprentices, provided us with food and clothing, and taught us how to read, learn spells, and prepare potions." Gothe slowly and naturally explained what Master Seda had done.
There is no flaw in what he said, because it is the truth. Gothe just omitted the key point that "the ultimate purpose of accepting them as apprentices is to use them to test medicine."
Mrs. Misu listened attentively.
At least Gothe couldn't see any flaws in her expression.
Therefore, it can be tentatively concluded that Master Seda has indeed never revealed the details of the medicine garden to Mrs. Misu.
This is how it should be.
Before being forced to leave Hogan City, Master Seda was not a "black mage" who didn't care about human life.
After embarking on this path because of his own interests, his previous conscience may not necessarily make him feel guilty, but it will most likely make him hide it from those closest to him in order to protect his image and personality.
This is human nature.
Human nature is like this.
