Slumdog Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 789

Chapter 789 Rent an Apartment

The streets of the City of Phoenix were quite clean. This world seemed to have achieved full mechanism!

Many robots were sweeping the streets, and the people on the road were used to the existence of these robots.

After entering the city, Gerald and the others were in great shock.

The people on the streets were much more than in Ries City. On both sides of the street, there were all kinds of shops selling clothes and medicinal herbs, providing services, entertainment, and all sorts of other things.

When human civilization developed to a certain extent, most things were actually interlinked, such as smartphones, computers, and networks…

Compared to Earth, this world seemed more advanced.

For example, the smartphone, which was also the way of communication in this world, had truly achieved artificial intelligence.

In this world, artificial intelligence was also everywhere.

And for various reasons, there was no way to make it a global connection like on Earth, and it could only be limited to a certain range.

“This sweeping robot is not bad. I will take a few back with me and it can save me a lot of money from hiring a nanny,” Triston looked at the robots and said.

“A hundred years have passed. As expected, this city has changed a lot. I can’t even recognize the road.” Hector smiled and said, “Let’s go rent a place first! Just like in Sin City, the lower–class people can only live in the outer areas.”

He smiled and said, “The closer it gets to the city center, the lower the buildings are. The city center belongs to the Four Ancient Families. The buildings there are not too different from the villas on Earth.”

“It doesn’t matter where we live,” Gerald said.

Hector looked around and then saw a house rental agency.

Many people were sitting inside, and their clothes looked more formal, but they were also different from the ones on Earth.

When they saw Gerald and the others come in, especially when they saw Gerald and the others carrying luggage, several people were delighted and quickly surrounded them. However, when they saw that Gerald and the others did not have the number plates of the upper–class people, they lost interest and sat down!

A man with short hair stood up and said, “Hello everyone, do you want to rent an apartment or buy a house?”

“Rent an apartment!” Jacob smiled and said.

Hearing that they were renting an apartment, the other staff in the agency became even more speechless. They were all busy with their own things and did not even look at Gerald and the others.

“This is so rea!,” Gerald said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Hector smiled and said, “Although the City of Phoenix is much safer than Ries City, the pressure of life is also much greater. To the lower–class people, living is enough to make them suffer.”

“That is indeed a bit similar to Sin City.” Gerald glanced at him and suddenly said with a strange expression, “The establishment of Sin City was created by the Night Watch. Don’t tell me you are also involved in making the city this way.”

“I didn’t participate. The way that Sin City turned out to be, in the end, was related to Davis. Davis … is a member of Blood Lotus,” Hector reminded.

Gerald was stunned for a moment.

While Gerald and Hector were talking, Jacob was also talking with the person who greeted them. When this man with the crew–cut hair heard that Gerald wanted to rent an apartment, he laughed bitterly in his heart. Then he quickly said, “What price range are you thinking about? The rent here is about 1,000 golorbs to 20 thousand golorbs. The apartments costing 20 thousand golorbs are located in the city center.”

As he spoke, he mainly introduced the more expensive apartments to Gerald and the others. “Are you guys here to look for work in the City of Phoenix?”

Gerald glanced at his chest. There was a small tag, which should be his name tag. On it was his name, Ryder Burgess.

Hearing his question, Jacob said in a lower voice. “Yes.”
