Sequence: The God Eater

Chapter 73: The Poor in the Rich Area

"How much?!" Qin Siyang's eyes widened and he looked at Li Tianming in disbelief.

"It costs hundreds of silver coins to rent a house?! Although I have never seen money, you can't lie to me like this!"

"For a few hundred silver coins, why don't I just buy a house? No, buying a house isn't that expensive, right?!"

Li Tianming smiled disdainfully and put on his belt as if nothing had happened.

"Boy, you are still too young and don't know much about the world in the safe zone."

"Do you think that in other places, like our dilapidated safe zone, one silver coin is more than enough to buy a single room?"

"I'm telling you, the gap between different areas in the safe zone is bigger than the gap between you and your classmates."

"To put it simply, ours is safe area 14121. Do you know where the eight major colleges are?"

"……have no idea."

"They are all in the first thirty areas."

"The number of the area is the same as the number of the exit of the safe zone. The smaller the number, the more powerful people there are."

"Residents in area No. 30 are either rich or noble. If you talk to anyone on the street, they might be the director of a department. There, even the director of the Department of Education has to keep his tail between his legs. "

"Tell me, what are the housing prices in that place?"

"Maybe you want to ask again why the academy is built in the first thirty areas."

Qin Siyang nodded: "I did just want to ask."

"Have you ever thought about the essence of the eight colleges built for ordinary people? Are the so-called colleges for ordinary people really aimed at ordinary people?"

"You mean..."

"If it's really for ordinary people like Wen Shu, why not just build one hundred and eighty colleges, but only eight?"

"That's because these eight academies were built for those children of powerful people who do not have the ability to awaken to the sequence."

"This group of people are of noble birth. It is impossible that they cannot receive a decent education because they do not have the ability to awaken. Therefore, in order to stabilize the internal situation, the coalition government created these eight colleges."

"You think that the academy is for ordinary people and the University for Sequence Abilities is for the superior Sequence Abilities. In fact, you are completely wrong."

"Hundreds of universities serve ordinary people like you and me. Colleges were originally established for those high-ranking people."

"The reason why it is so difficult to get into the college is because most of the places have been allocated in advance. Excluding the group of powerful children recommended by the sponsored college or the alumni association, only one-fifth of the places are left for students like Wen Shu. "

"In other words, four out of five people are in the same circle, and only one in five got in through their own efforts."

"Do you think the location of this college should accommodate the one-fifth of the people, or the four-fifths of the people?"

Qin Siyang was shocked when he heard this.

I didn’t expect that there are so many things going on in the so-called eight colleges.

"So, if you want to pick up a girl and pay for her accommodation, I advise you to save money."

"It takes four years to graduate from the academy. According to the surrounding housing prices, a single-bedroom apartment costs at least a few hundred silver coins. This is still rare."

"I heard that as the safety zone becomes more stable, housing prices in that area have risen again. The common rent for a single-bedroom apartment has risen to one gold coin."

"If it is the top-ranked United College in Area 3, the four-year rent for a single-bedroom apartment in the surrounding area is estimated to be doubled."

"That's it, you have to book in advance to get it."

Li Tianming put on his suit and poured himself a cup of hot water.

"Wen Shu has communicated with me about the college a long time ago. She chose Tiantong College and Renxing College, which are ranked lower, and I support her."

"She will take her grandma to study together. Only these two colleges will provide private dormitories for students with excellent grades."

"She also calculated an account. If she takes out a loan to rent a house and joins the coalition government after graduation, she will probably not be able to pay it back in her lifetime."

"I also support her view. Because these rental houses are not originally prepared for students like her."

"The main tenants are the upper-class kids who are inconvenient to go home. Do you understand?"

Li Tianming looked at Qin Siyang, who was still in a daze, and the annoyance of him interrupting his good things just now was gone.

"Classmate Qin, I advise you to save money. For ordinary people, the money spent on hunting gods is a huge amount of wealth. But it is really not enough to put it in the core of the safe zone."

"I can understand that you like Wen Shu. After all, this girl is well-behaved, sensible, and good-looking..."

Hearing this, Qin Siyang's eyes suddenly became sharp.

Is Li Tianming, a lustful man like this, not interested in Wen Shu?

Li Tianming curled his lips: "I won't attack students yet. Regarding Wen Shu, it's just the care of the elders. You kid, you'd better not think nonsense."

"It better be."

"She is an inexperienced student and she is not to my taste. Don't worry."

Unexperienced?

Qin Siyang was too lazy to refute.

It seems that Wen Shu is hiding well from everyone's eyes.

Li Tianming continued: "Classmate Qin, I have been here before and I have to give you a few words of advice."

"When picking up girls, you have to follow some basic rules."

"Are you really trying to find a way to earn a few hundred silver coins, or even a few gold coins, to help Wen Shu pay her rent?"

"She probably won't be able to earn this much money in her lifetime in the coalition government. If you really want to be with her, you might as well save it and use it as assets for your small family after you get married."

"It's much better than paying sky-high rent, right?"

Qin Siyang was a little impatient.

"I said, I didn't pursue her."

"Yes, yes, you are right. I just give you my opinion."

"I am the principal. I am communicating with you now. You listen to what I say first. If you have different opinions, you can express them later."

"Okay."

"I don't like to preach. But I really admire you, so I will say a few more words, hoping that you can listen to it."

"Yeah. I know that what Principal Li said is for my own good. I am not a person who doesn't know how to promote others."

"I know you are a quick-witted kid."

"Let me say something unpleasant. Don't say that you like her now. Even if you two get married in the end, things are uncertain."

"Look at me. When I was the vice president of the university, I got along well with my wife. Later, I got into some trouble and became the former wife."

"So, don't focus on the illusory love."

"People have to live for themselves."

"I have always agreed with what Principal Li said. I don't intend to embarrass myself to help her."

Li Tianming clapped his hands: "That's the truth!"

"Love is unreliable. The relationship between husband and wife is not as close as our cooperative relationship."

"It is better to do one bad thing together than to do a thousand good things together."

Li Tianming sighed again: "To be honest, there are very few people who can be closer than us."

"Unless you have killed people together and dumped corpses together."

"But Wen Shu, the good girl, will not do these things with you."

"No matter what, you still have to be down-to-earth, classmate Qin."
