In response to Varga's question, Connor deliberated over his words before using a voice transmission to explain to Varga, "Loen is a city that focuses on industry, commerce, and maritime trade. It is an important trade city that connects the empire to the new continent of Khoy. Its economic development is one of the best in the entire Kaman Empire, so the public facilities in the city are even more advanced!"
"As for Flosinone, it is a traditional inland city of the empire that focuses on agriculture. Compared to Loen, its economic level is far behind. According to the joint announcement made by the empire's Ministry of Finance and Ministry of Mz a year ago, the entire Flosinone City's contribution to the empire's finances is a mere hundred thousand gold pounds, which is less than one-thirtieth of Loen's. Didn't Minister of Finance Akanji say that Flosinone's economic level is fifty years behind Loen's?"
"Thus, the economic level determines that Flosinone is unable to build public carriages like Loen. Moreover, due to the Odin Empire's Eagle Faction, the Kebedes Family, they have been constantly investing large amounts of troops at the border to exert military pressure on the empire. The empire has no choice but to invest large amounts of troops at the border as a response to the Odin Empire's actions. And horses are an important strategic resource at the frontlines. More than ninety percent of the horses in the northeastern cities, including Flosinone, have been mobilized. Thus, there is a severe shortage of horses, and people can only rely on rickshaws to travel!"
Hearing Connor's explanation, Varga nodded in understanding. Seeing Varga's expression, a doting smile appeared on Connor's face. Although Varga studied medical school, he had received higher education in this world, so he could understand such simple economic knowledge with just a bit!
After ten minutes, White and the bronze-skinned rickshaw driver pulled Connor and Varga to the entrance of a magnificent six-story hotel. After wiping the sweat on his forehead with a towel, White respectfully said to Connor, "Sir, we have arrived at the Agudelo Hotel!"
Glancing at the Agudelo Hotel in front of him, Connor nodded with satisfaction. He then took out his wallet from his pocket, took out two one-shilling notes and threw them on the rickshaw. He then said lightly, "This is the fare for the two of us. Take the extra as a tip. I'm very satisfied with the work you and your companion have done. If you want to continue serving me, then come here tomorrow at 10 o 'clock in the morning. I'll give you one shilling per person a day!"
After speaking, Connor and Varga got off the rickshaw and walked towards the Agudelo Hotel with their luggage. Only White and the bronze-skinned middle-aged rickshaw driver were left behind.
Connor and Varga walked into the lavishly decorated Agudelo Hotel. The reason why Connor specifically wanted to come to this hotel was not because of anything special about it. It was entirely because in Connor Ferguson's memory, Agudelo Hotel had left a deep impression on him. He believed that this hotel had the best service in the entire Flosinone City. Therefore, Connor, who was not short of money, decided to make this his first stop in Flosinone!
"Sir, Miss, how are you? I'm the hotel's waiter, Lao Taro. How can I help you?"
As soon as he walked into the hotel lobby, a handsome young waiter wearing the hotel uniform walked over and politely asked Connor, "Sir, I'm sorry, but I'm sorry.
"Accommodation! Give us a Count's Suite! "
After sizing up the young waiter who called himself Lao Taro, Connor said faintly:
Lao Taro was obviously very surprised when he heard Connor ask for a Count's Suite. He secretly sized up Connor and Varga in front of him, then hesitated before saying, "Sir, the Count's Suite in our Agudelo Hotel needs to be booked at least a week in advance. Sir, do you have a reservation?"
"I don't, but I'm willing to pay 30% more!"
As soon as the waiter finished speaking, Connor did not hesitate at all and directly said:
In the Kaman Empire, there was a complete system for suites in high-end luxury hotels like the Agudelo Hotel. They named their suites according to their titles. Duke suites were the highest, Knight suites were entry-level. The Agudelo Hotel had one marquis-level suite, five count-level suites, ten viscount-level suites, and thirty knight suites. The Agudelo Hotel had one marquis-level suite, five count-level suites, ten viscount-level suites, and thirty knights.
The waiter who called himself Lao Taro was right. Under normal circumstances, Marquis Suites and Count's Suites need to be booked a period of time in advance. However, unlike Marquis Suites, which you may not be able to live in even if you have the money, Count's Suites are still available even if you don't have a reservation. Even if you don't have a reservation, you can still live in Count's Suites with 30% more. "
If Connor didn't remember wrongly, the cost of staying in Duke Agudelo's suite was 1 gold pound a day. Even if the price was increased by 30%, staying there for a year or so was but a drop in the bucket for Connor Ferguson's wealth!
Hearing that Connor was willing to increase the price, the brown-haired waiter Taro's eyes suddenly lit up. He knew that the man and woman in front of him, who looked like a young couple, were big investors. His eyes suddenly lit up, and his attitude couldn't help but become more humble and respectful. He said softly to Connor, "The Earl Suite is beyond my authority. Please wait a moment, I have to contact my supervisor!"
Lao Taro then bowed to Connor and Varga and walked towards an office behind the hotel's front desk. After only a minute, Lao Taro came out of the office with a tall middle-aged lady who was also wearing the hotel's uniform. She was tall and had a pretty face. She walked towards Connor and Varga!
"Hello sir, I'm Stephanie, the lobby supervisor of Hotel Agudelo. How should I address the two of you?" The tall middle-aged lady sized up Connor and Varga, then said with a smile, "I'm Stephanie.
"My name is Dricht, and this is my wife, Caitlin. We are willing to pay 30% more to stay in the Earl Suite of the department hotel!" Connor repeated his request.
After hearing Connor's request, the middle-aged female supervisor, Stephanie, pondered for a moment before saying, "Since you understand the rules, that's good. Our hotel happens to have an Count's Suite that hasn't been reserved. We can provide it to you, but according to our hotel's rules, you have to stay for at least a week and pay 100 gold pounds as a deposit!"
