RISE OF EROS

The city is divided into 6 districts, the royal district, which is where the castle is located, the king and his relatives live there. The noble district, is next to the royal district, there is where all the houses of the nobles and wealthy are located from the city.

In the commercial district, which is the name for the place where all the businesses are, except for the inns and hotels, that, can be found in the noble, common and commercial districts.

The common district is where citizens in general or not so wealthy people live, it is the largest area and although there are no extremely wealthy people in this area, that is only compared to nobles, royalty or large business groups.

The red district is the entertainment is, there is where you can find most of the bars, brothels and casinos, this is the area that interested me the most, in the capital city everything was quite regulated and protected, because the castle is here, but the red district and the marginal district were the exception.

Although the law still exists in these places, the law enforcement is not very strict here, and that is why, these districts are the most dangerous in the city, here you can find the bases for the members of the underworld.

Lastly, the marginal district, which, as in any city, is at the extremes of the city, there is where people with the least resources live. This zone is not different from the marginal zone of Calci, perhaps the only difference is that it is from greater extension.

After knowing all this, I knew about what I should learn more, that was, the red district. Since I wanted to create a brothel it should be located in that place, the problem is, that, it is an area with dark organizations like the slum.

Because of this, getting in, as a new individual, with no relationships or patrons, wouldn\'t be easy, so I needed to do some research, and that\'s what I did for the next few weeks. I spent about 50 small gold coins to get some inside information, but it was just the tip of the iceberg.

However, it was useful information, according to what I found, I learned that there are sub-zones in the red district, to be more exact 5 sub-zones, the north zone, the south zone, the west zone, the east zone, and the central zone.

Each zone has its great bosses who control it, only the central zone, it can be said that it has no law, make no mistake, this does not mean that the central zone is total anarchy, what happens is that unlike the other 4, does not have an immovable boss.

This is not because no one is interested in being one, what happens is that the big bosses of the other zones use it as a buffer zone, so as not to interfere in the other\'s business.

In this way, they maintain the status quo and avoid unnecessary wars, however, being the largest zone, they obviously have interests in it, but not enough to hinder the bosses of the other zones.

Although the central zone does not have immovable bosses, that does not mean that there are no great bosses and powerful organizations, what happens is that there is not one above all, the competition is fierce, but so are the opportunities and knowing this, I knew, that, there was the only place where I could settle.

Although I would have many problems, I also knew, that\'s the only place where I could be myself without having to answer to anyone, even if it meant a constant battle, so making my decision I began to investigate the central area more thoroughly.

I spent another month and another 50 small gold coins, gathering information, as I already knew, there are powerful people in this area, but there are also places where you could start relatively unnoticed and that\'s what I was aiming for.

Despite this, I had to get certain things before starting. The first thing I need was to get the courtesans, servants and guards as the main topics, for an unconnected person like me, that was impossible, my best option was to buy an establishment with all of this, that will save a lot of trouble.

The only drawback of this plan is that I was susceptible to having spies in my establishment, and in this type of business, not to mention this place, trust is vital, so I had to evaluate very well.

After a lot of research and deliberation, I came to a decision, I found the perfect place, a region in the central zone of the red-light district.

There were no big bosses or powerful organizations, it was about 3 streets made up of bars, casinos and brothels, very quiet, with not apparently power fights.

I contacted one of the owners of a small brothel who was already very old and wanted to retire, I approached him, and we discussed the conditions for the acquisition of the place.

The brothel was small compared to the great pleasure palaces elsewhere, but it had the essentials, it was a 2-story U-shaped property, the western region contained, an office, a master bedroom, a large communal bathroom, and the kitchen of the establishment.

The eastern region, had 20 staff rooms mainly for courtesans, but could also accommodate servants, 10 on each floor, the central region contained the places of pleasure, there were 2 large communal halls to enjoy food and drink in the company of the courtesans, 5 private rooms for meetings of specific groups on the first floor, and the reception.

On the second floor, there were 10 rooms to enjoy the private company of the courtesans, it should be noted that the 5 private rooms have a back room to enjoy the pleasure if, any of the guests wish to be intimate with one of the courtesans who serve them.

In the center of the building is a garden for relaxation and leisure during the day for the employees, when I saw it, I knew, that it was the perfect place, if there was something problematic, it would be the human resource.

This industry is similar to the feudal era of Japan, in terms of courtesans and pleasure, slavery existed, but few brothels used slaves, as customers feel that they are belittled, but for some reason, a girl who is sell to a brothel not considers a slave, although there are not many differences.

The best brothels treat the courtesans as employees, they have salaries, buy their own belongings and treat them with respect, some courtesans are even considered queens, but it does not change the fact, that, they are someone\'s property, it is a difficult concept to understand for me, but I didn\'t think about it, I just got carried away.

The problem was that there were few employees, only 5 courtesans who could not be considered the most beautiful and expert in the trade, 3 employees in the kitchen and 2 guards, not to mention other positions that were not even staffed.

Also, although the building was fine, it still needed some small repairs, it was not a business that you could buy and start work the next day, not if I wanted to establish a good business.

In my head, I didn\'t just want a brothel that provided sex, I wanted it to be a house of pleasure, that provides company and comfort to clients, not just sex, and I didn\'t do this out of good will, it was because I was thinking long-term.

Well, with such a service, more money can be raised, my status will be higher, and it will attract big names that would be valuable connections, so with all this in mind, I negotiated with the old man and bought everything for 400 small gold coins, after a long and complex negotiation.
