Chapter 165 Making money

"White Cat has done a great job?"

Xiao Ran had a complicated expression for a moment. With all these snacks, he was actually not as good as a cat? ?
"No, it's obviously my sugar-coated bullet that has already taken effect, and it's just the finishing touch. White Cat is just assisting."

If possible, Xiao Ran just wants to call the white cat back.

However, as the cat master, his ability to command the white cat is almost zero.

"Give it a name!"

Xiao Ran was not very good at naming things. He didn't even give a name to the white cat.

"Just call her Qiu Kuro, a standard name for a girl."

When Xiao Ran silently recited the word "Qiukui", the girl who was following the white cat on the other side stiffened for a moment, then her eyes lit up, and it seemed that she liked the name Qiukui very much.

"Bone Spirit is very satisfied with Qiu Kui's name. His favorability has increased. Please choose a major, or don't choose one for now."

(Note: Bone Spirit can only choose one profession to assist, please be careful!)

(Note: Professional selection can only be made from the owner's own profession.)
Xiao Ran originally wanted to choose corpse sewing as Qiu Kui's major, but then he changed his mind and thought that corpse sewing was too professional. If he wanted to train Qiu Kui in other directions in the future, there would be a conflict because of this major.

After much deliberation, Xiao Ran decided to choose [Trainee] as his major.

After all, trainees are a panacea and have a strong effect in cooperation with various professions.

If you want to grow okra yourself in the future, you will get twice the result with half the effort.

After making the choice, Qiu Kui once again felt the changes in her body, and the smile on her face gradually grew more frequent.

Immediately afterwards, information about okra appeared in front of Xiao Ran.

Bone Spirit: Okra

Gender: Female
Spirituality: 13
Major: Trainee
Abilities: Good at learning, photographic memory, teleportation.

Looking at Qiu Kui's information list, Xiao Ran was still very satisfied.

After a day's work, he had finished renovating all the necessary parts of the house, and now he was just waiting for Wu Man to get started.

Thinking of Wu Man, Xiao Ran couldn't help but reveal a cunning smile on his face.

……

The next day.

"Today's events, today's newspaper, read quickly." Several naughty children were running quickly in the streets, holding newspapers.

Xiao Ran walked out of the house holding an umbrella. It was raining on Guling Street today, which was rare. There was a hint of autumn coolness in the air, which made people feel refreshed.

I don't know how many people have walked on the bluestone slabs of Guling Street, but it actually feels quite comfortable to step on them.

Xiao Ran walked along the street and came to the coffee shop. He looked up and saw Wu Man waving at him.

"So early?"

Putting away the umbrella, Xiao Ran walked over to Wu Man and sat down.

"Well, I came in yesterday. I heard there was an auction, so I went there to try my luck."

In order to make a good impression on the landlord, Wu Man put on a neat suit.

Although Xiao Ran didn't know much about goods, he could tell that Wu Man's clothes were probably not cheap.

Miguel's suit fits Wu Man's figure perfectly. Combined with Wu Man's good figure, he inevitably has the temperament of a noble young master.

In comparison, the 19-yuan short-sleeved shirt Xiao Ran was wearing, which he bought online, looked a bit sloppy and casual.

"what!"

At this moment, Wu Man suddenly stared at Xiao Ran's eyes and was stunned for a moment.

"what happened?"

"Oh, it's okay, I misread it."

Wu Man picked up the coffee and took a sip, then slowly clenched his hands that were placed on his knees, veins bulging on them, and the corners of his lips could no longer suppress a slight rise.

Xiao Ran looked at his black swan brooch suspiciously, and after making sure that the brooch had not triggered an alarm, he said, "Let's go, and talk as we walk. You owe me a big favor this time."

"Of course, I never like to owe favors to others. This is for you."

Wu Man took out a small glass bottle from the space and handed it to Xiao Ran.

"E-level cursed item: [Aura Potion], do you want to activate it?"

When Xiao Ran took it, he heard a prompt sound.

Wu Man at the side smiled and seemed very proud to say: "I told you the other day that I have a friend who is good at making potions. This is specially made for you."

"You have other friends?" I didn't take Wu Man's words that day to heart, but I didn't expect Wu Man to really get the medicine for me.

The smile on Wu Man's face became even more intense: "Of course, we are very close friends."

Xiao Ran's mind was completely on this bottle of potion. After trying to activate it with a trainee, the light blue potion in the glass bottle gradually turned into light gold.

[Aura Potion Trainee]

Put a drop in the eye to improve eye sharpness and vision, and achieve a smart visual effect.

Smart Vision: Your eyes can see through all objects around you, improving your vision by 20%
Duration: 3 hours
Cooling time: 8 hours.

Additional task: After dripping it ten times, you can get an extra reward, which will increase your agility by 5 points.

"Hahaha, this thing is really good."

Xiao Ran looked at the properties of the spiritual light potion and was immediately overjoyed. It could improve vision and also carry character attributes. It was simply top-notch. After collecting the things, Xiao Ran was in a good mood and his steps became much lighter.

Walking back home with Wu Man: "This is it."

Wu Man looked up and down at the house in front of him and asked in surprise, "Is this the place?"

"Yes, is there any problem?" Xiao Ran nodded. Seeing Wu Man's surprised expression, he thought Wu Man was not satisfied with it here.

"No problem, no problem at all. This is the core section of Guling Street. Do you know how much such a big house is worth?"

"Well, it should be worth a lot."

To be honest, Xiao Ran had also looked at the housing prices in this area in the brochure distributed by Penglai Pavilion.

But what’s strange is that the prices in this area are all question marks.

Xiao Ran thought that this piece of housing was not within the scope of the investigation.

Wu Man did not explain, but took a deep breath. He suddenly felt that the offer Xiao Ran had made before seemed quite reasonable, and even a bit cheap.

"You better be careful later, don't make the landlord angry."

Xiao Ran opened the door as he spoke.

"Sister Liu, we are back."

Xiao Ran first shouted towards the attic, "Look", and then invited Wu Man to sit down.

After a while, Wu Man heard footsteps coming from upstairs and couldn't help but squint his eyes and look over there.

When Wu Man saw Sister Liu's bright red wedding dress, his pupils dilated and the hairs under his suit couldn't help but stand up.

The woman in front of him exuded an aura that made him feel dangerous from the inside out.

This kind of oppressive feeling is at least B-level, or even double B-level.

"Is there still a strong person of this level hidden in Bone Spirit Street?! No wonder the price is so high."

Wu Man quickly stood up from the sofa and stood straight: "Hello, ma'am, my name is Wu Man, and I'm a chef."

Liu Rui looked at Wu Man with an indifferent gaze, and then just nodded lightly: "Got it."

They were just three light words, and it was obvious that he didn't take Wu Man to heart.

But Wu Man did not feel uncomfortable, instead he felt relieved.

"Xiao Ran told me that you would take care of all the housework and cooking, right?"

"Yes, this is all my job."

Wu Man lowered his head even deeper, and even felt a little regretful in his heart. If he had known that the landlord was such a powerful one, he would really have to consider whether to rent a house with Xiao Ran.

But when I think about it carefully, I feel relieved.

Owning such a large property in the core area of Guling Street is itself a proof of strength.

"Well, that's it. There's a prepared contract on the table. After you sign it, just ask Xiaoran to give it to me."

Liu Rui glanced at Xiao Ran, smiled at him, turned around and went upstairs. She had no intention of sitting down to discuss from beginning to end.

Wu Man waited for a while until Liu Rui's footsteps gradually faded away. Then he dared to raise his head and sat down on the sofa.

Xiao Ran looked at the beads of sweat on Wu Man's forehead and couldn't help thinking, "Could it be that I used too much force and scared this guy? If I don't stop, won't I lose a lot of money?"

Thinking of this, Xiao Ran felt that he had to make amends: "If you feel it's too much of a stretch..."

"Don't force it!"

Wu Man quickly raised her hand to signal Xiao Ran not to talk nonsense, and glanced upstairs guiltily, fearing that Xiao Ran's words would make the person upstairs feel disgusted.

I quickly picked up the pen on the table and signed my name on the rental contract.

They even deliberately changed the original price of five paper money a day to nine.

Seeing Wu Man's actions, Xiao Ran felt a little embarrassed.

“Isn’t this price… too high?”

"Not high, not high, you don't understand, I've already taken advantage."

Wu Man gave Xiao Ran a blank look, thinking that Xiao Ran was a young and inexperienced person who didn't understand the market at all. Such a location couldn't possibly be cheap.

Penglai Tower does not mark the housing prices here simply because it thinks that few people can afford to buy a house here, and it dares not mark the price arbitrarily, for fear that the price will be too low and anger the owners here.

With such a powerful landlord, this place is one of the few safe places in Guling Street. Nine ghost money a day and the price is only three hundred a month, which is a huge profit for Wu Man.

"All right!"

Xiao Ran rolled his eyes, but couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Wu Man seemed to be richer than he thought.

Three hundred ghost money a month, and I am trying to extort it... Bah, how many people do I have to help to earn that much?

After Wu Man signed, Xiao Ran put the contract away and said, "Wait a moment, I'll send the contract up."

"it is good."

Xiao Ran pretended to walk to the third floor, knocked on the door, then closed the door, leaned against the door, let out a long breath, looked at the contract in his hand, his mouth almost split to the back of his head.

The only person who can hire a private chef and earn the chef's money is probably yourself.

"I made a lot of money. I made so much money that I feel guilty about it..."

Xiao Ran shook his head, feeling the condemnation of his conscience, and happily pressed his handprint behind the name of the owner of the rental agreement...
