"Right, I can first find a place to stay. As long as I can make a name for myself, others will definitely come … This way, I won't have to run to other people's houses, and I can earn money steadily. I'll also have the demeanor of an otherworldly expert."
An idea popped up in his mind.
As a master teacher, one had to possess a certain level of prestige and standing. It was impossible for one to barge into the residence of another for no reason. Since that was the case, he would wait patiently for the other party to take the bait.
As long as someone came, he believed that he would not be able to escape with his Dafa and the Library of Heaven's Path.
"Hmm, then let's find a place to settle down first!"
After careful consideration, Zhang Xuan concluded that this was the best method. He snapped his fingers and made his decision.
That was what he did.
With such a thought in mind, Zhang Xuan walked up to the counter and bought some pills and potions that could alter his appearance and skin tone.
Although he didn't know how to disguise himself, as an Earthling, he still knew how to put on makeup. With the help of these pills and potions that could change his skin color, it didn't take long for him to turn from a young man of less than twenty years old to a middle-aged man with a slightly sallow face and dignified eyebrows.
After checking his reflection in the mirror for a long time and confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, he nodded in satisfaction.
After putting on his makeup, he walked out of the Apothecary Guild.
"If you want others to believe you, you have to first get yourself a set of luxurious clothes …"
Clothes make the man, just as a saddle makes the horse. Given his current attire, there are many who would believe that he is a beggar. However, if he were to say that he is a master teacher, no one would believe him. He would have to put on a dignified appearance.
"There's a clothing store in front."
With such thoughts in mind, Zhang Xuan saw a clothing store not too far away. He walked in, and not too long later, he walked out with a completely different appearance.
He wore a brocade hat and a mink coat, and his clothes were luxurious. Just from his appearance, one could tell that he was noble beyond words.
He had spent a total of twenty thousand gold coins on this outfit, which made his heart ache.
"Just treat it as an investment."
Consoling himself, Zhang Xuan walked along the streets. An hour later, he arrived at Tianyu Commercial City.
It was already afternoon, and the sun would set at any moment.
Knowing that time was of the essence, Zhang Xuan walked in without any hesitation.
It was impossible for Zhang Xuan to find a residence that he could move into in such a short period of time. Tianyu Commercial Market was known to sell everything, so there was bound to be information regarding this matter. There was no need for him to buy one, he could just rent one.
Having been here before, Zhang Xuan was quite familiar with the area. After circling the area for a moment, he finally saw an intermediary for renting and selling houses.
"Sir, you want to buy a house?"
Seeing him come in, a fat boss came up to greet him.
"Master?"
Zhang Xuan was stunned. Only then did he realize that he had changed his appearance. He looked to be in his forties and was no longer a young man.
Nodding his head, he placed his hands behind his back and assumed the bearing of an old master. Lowering his voice, he said, "I would like to rent a mansion!"
"Mansion? Master coming to my place to rent a mansion is definitely the best choice! "The owner's eyes lit up.
Those who could afford to rent mansions were all rich people. Just by reporting a little more, they would be able to rip off a huge sum of money!
"What do you want, Master?"
As if he had seen a big fat sheep, the boss said happily.
"It's clean, spacious, and in a good location. It's best if it's a well-renovated house so that we can move in immediately!"
Zhang Xuan.
"This …"
Hearing the other party's request, the boss's eyes flashed with excitement, and he almost jumped up.
Needless to say, this was definitely a fat sheep.
Not to mention other things, just these few conditions alone made it impossible for them to be cheap.
How could one possibly lack money to rent a mansion like this?
Despite his excitement, he feigned a troubled expression and said, "Old master, we do have such a place here. However, the price is likely to be expensive …"
First, he would lay the groundwork before making a huge profit.
Hehe …
"Price isn't a problem!" Zhang Xuan waved his hands magnanimously.
Now that he was a 'master teacher', it would be too embarrassing if he haggled over such a small sum of money.
"Alright, I'll bring you to look at the mansion now until you are satisfied."
Hearing the other party's magnanimous words, the smile on the boss's face nearly reached his ears. Without any hesitation, he closed the door of the shop, took out a bunch of keys, and led the way.
Zhang Xuan followed behind him. After walking for a while, they arrived at a spacious mansion.
"This is a mansion bought by a wealthy merchant last year, but that fellow passed away a year ago due to illness. His son indulged in all sorts of vices, so he had no choice but to leave this mansion with us. We can rent it or sell it. It's a newly renovated residence, and its location is good. Shall I bring you around to take a look?"
Stopping at the entrance of the mansion, the boss looked over, wanting to see Zhang Xuan's reaction.
This mansion was the most luxurious and spacious one in their rental center. Regardless of location or size, it was impeccable. The reason why he brought the other party here first was so that the other party could take a look at it. If the other party found it unsuitable, he could look for another one. Once the other party took a fancy to it, he would really strike it rich.
"Let's go in and take a look!"
Zhang Xuan didn't say anything.
Since he was going to impersonate a 'master teacher', he had to have a spacious residence. It couldn't be too small. As for how much he had to spend, that wasn't a problem.
"Alright!"
Seeing that the other party didn't reject his offer, the boss smiled and hurriedly opened the door and walked in.
It was a five-sectioned courtyard, and there were all sorts of artificial mountains and ponds. It was spacious and filled with all sorts of plants. As soon as he stepped in, he could immediately smell the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers.
"Not bad!"
After taking a look around, Zhang Xuan nodded his head in approval.
Just as he had expected, this mansion could be moved in easily. It had everything he needed, so there was no need for additional trouble.
More importantly, it wasn't too far away from Hongtian Academy. It was only a ten-minute journey away.
He could return here as soon as he was done with his lessons.
"This is it then. How much do I rent this house?"
Having decided on a place, Zhang Xuan couldn't be bothered to waste his breath. Thus, he gestured grandly.
"This is the most luxurious and best mansion in our rental center. If old master really wants to rent it, it would cost 150,000 gold coins a month!"
The boss hurriedly said.
"150,000 gold coins?"
Zhang Xuan frowned.
Even though he wasn't too familiar with the rental market in this world, 150,000 gold coins a month just to rent a house was a little too expensive.
Hu!
Without saying a word, Zhang Xuan abruptly leaped forward to grab the boss before him.
"Old master, what are you doing …"
Seeing the wind whistling at the tip of his finger, as though it was tearing through the air, the boss was so frightened that his body shrunk and he retreated.
With a single movement, his cultivation was revealed. Fighter 3-dan Zhenqi realm pinnacle!
His cultivation wasn't high.
"Oh, I just wanted to see your cultivation."
Retracting his hand, Zhang Xuan placed it behind his back. Looking at the other party once more, his eyes narrowed, "You said that you would rent this mansion to me for 150,000 gold coins a month? To triple the rent of 50,000 gold coins a month, do you think that I am a sucker? "
