On the sixth day after transforming into an elf, Lan Mu woke up at noon.
He returned home at five in the morning and went to bed after washing his bow. It was exactly seven hours.
However, Lan Mu didn't feel that he didn't get enough sleep, even though this was the first time he slept since transforming into an elf.
He felt that elves didn't seem to have a regular resting pattern like humans. They slept whenever they wanted and woke up whenever they wanted.
Moreover, there were no dreams. Basically, they would think about how long to wake up before they went to sleep. Just by closing and opening their eyes, it would be the right time!
Not a single minute off! In deep sleep, there was an automatic biological clock in the brain to wake them up, as well as a sleep alert system.
Elves were creatures that could even sleep for three years without sleeping!
It was the same when it came to eating. When they were thirsty, they would drink some dew. When they were hungry, they would drink some plant essence.
Drinking dew and wind, they would become immortals!
When he woke up, Su Yue had already made lunch.
Lan Mu looked at the food and sighed. He didn't want to eat.
After eating a few bites, Lan Mu basically watched Su Yue eat alone.
"Brother Mu, why aren't you eating?" This wasn't the first time, so Su Yue couldn't help but ask.
"Uh … I ate outside. I'm not hungry." Lan Mu could only answer.
Su Yue nodded and silently cleaned up the leftovers.
"Don't clean up. There's no fridge at home. Just throw it away." Lan Mu went forward and threw away the leftovers.
Su Yue was startled, but she didn't say anything.
Lan Mu hurriedly asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
Su Yue shook her head. Lan Mu said, "Do you think I'm wasteful? But the weather is hot. The leftovers are easy to spoil. "
"Brother Mu, are you really opening a studio?"
Lan Mu thought about what he had done for the past few days. It really seemed like he was tricking her into staying at his house. Thus, he said embarrassedly, "I've been delayed by something these few days. I'll probably be able to officially prepare the day after tomorrow. Why don't I book a room first today? "
"Brother Mu, you don't have to discuss with me. You are the boss." Su Yue pursed her lips and smiled.
"Yes, yes, yes. That's good. You look after the house alone. I'm going out."
Lan Mu put on his sunglasses and hat and went out. He actually had a friend who worked as a real estate agent.
Originally, he planned to contact that friend of his when he turned back into a human the day after tomorrow.
But since he was going to rent it now, he had to think of a way to find a good house.
"It doesn't matter if it's a little slanted. As long as it's big enough, it's best if it has two floors. That way, people can live on one floor and work on the other."
"If that's the case, we can only look for it in the suburbs."
Lan Mu used his mobile phone to search for the number of a real estate agent. This kind of phone number was everywhere. He randomly picked one that had a good reputation and called it.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, he said directly, "Yes, I've been wanting one recently."
"The location doesn't matter. About 150 square meters will do. It's usually well-furnished and can accommodate people at the same time."
After explaining his request, Lan Mu continued.
"A 3% commission? Sure, come and pick me up. I'm at … "
Lan Mu waited at the intersection for about an hour before a Chang 'an Benz stopped in front of him.
"Are you Mr. Lan?"
"That's right." Lan Mu got into the car and fastened his seatbelt.
The driver was a real estate agent. He was slightly plump and looked honest. However, he stared at Lan Mu in a daze. Obviously, he didn't expect the so-called Mr. Lan to be so good-looking.
Lan Mu coughed. Then, he retracted his gaze.
"Mr. Lan, my name is Li Penghou. I have a few empty studios. These are the information. Shall we go to the cafe and talk about it slowly? Or do you want to pick a place and we can look at the houses?"
"No need to waste time. This one is not bad. Let's go and take a look."
Lan Mu quickly flipped through the information and picked a good one.
However, the picture was different from reality. If he wasn't satisfied with one, he went to the next one.
For the whole afternoon, Li Penghou took Lan Mu around Shanghai and looked at one house after another.
When it was almost six o 'clock, Lan Mu finally decided on one.
"Brother Mu, I'll call you brother! This one is really good. It was newly renovated last year. It's 156 square meters and only costs three yuan per square meter a day. It's definitely qualified for water, electricity, and fire protection … "
Listening to Li Penghou's praises, Lan Mu saw that it was getting late. He stopped picking and chose this one.
"I heard that the security around here is bad … But forget it. I'm going to live in this studio anyway. I'm in a bit of a hurry. It's settled then."
Li Penghou was overjoyed. He quickly took out the contract and signed it with Lan Mu.
3% commission for 156 square meters. It was on the second floor of the studio. Three yuan per square meter a day.
The monthly rent was more than 14,000 yuan, including the property management fee.
Today was August 19th. Since Lan Mu paid one month's rent and two months' deposit, starting from October 19th, he had to pay the rent on the 19th of every month.
Just like that, Lan Mu paid more than 43,000 yuan.
His savings were not much. He only had 80,000 yuan left. He still had to buy the equipment and prepare for the studio registration.
His funds were a bit tight. If he couldn't make enough money in two months, he couldn't open the studio.
After saying goodbye to Li Penghou, Lan Mu took the subway back. On the way, he was thinking about how to develop the studio.
He was too short of money now. After opening the studio officially, the operating funds left were estimated to be less than 50,000 yuan.
Moreover, he had to recruit people. He and Cheng Ming couldn't do too much work.
A studio with poor working ability would end up with no one interested in it.
However, he wasn't too worried about recruiting people. After all, he had been in Shanghai for so many years. He had some connections.
He could just ask his college classmates to deal with the initial stage.
But all the troubles, in the final analysis, were because he was short of money.
If he couldn't even earn the rent and salary in two months, the studio could close down.
"There are only two ways. One is to introduce more funds, so that I have more time to develop."
"Two is to find a way to get a few big orders and make a name for myself in the shortest time."
"But even if I can get a big order, can my studio bear it?"
At first, he wanted to open his own studio on impulse. Now that he thought about it, he found it too difficult.
Sure enough, starting from scratch was never easy.
When Lan Mu walked home, it was almost seven o 'clock.
He saw a red Jaguar XE parked downstairs. A young man was leaning on the car and smoking.
This young man looked familiar. Lan Mu thought for a moment and recognized him.
It was the person he met when he bought the bow at the Forest Club. He remembered that he introduced himself as Du Yu.
Du Yu saw Lan Mu come back and grinned.
He hurriedly came forward to shake Lan Mu's hand, but Lan Mu shook it out of courtesy and immediately pulled his hand back.
"Lan Mu, right? Brother Mu? I finally waited for you! Your husband refused to open the door for me, so I could only wait for you downstairs. "Du Yu chuckled as if he was familiar with Su Tao.
Lan Mu listened to his words. It seemed that he came early and knocked on the door upstairs. But it was obvious that Su Yue would not open the door for him.
"How do you know I live here? Oh right, how do you know my name? " Lan Mu felt very surprised. This Du Yu was just a stranger he met by chance. He didn't even pay attention to him. How could he find him here?
"Haha …." Du Yu was a bit embarrassed. He stammered, "Don't worry about these details!"
"Oh …."
Lan Mu didn't ask anymore. It was obvious that Du Yu investigated him. He didn't know what method he used, but Lan Mu didn't have a good impression of him.
With an indifferent 'oh' sound, Lan Mu directly went upstairs.
However, Du Yu naturally followed him. He walked side by side with him and said, "Brother Mu, you're good at archery! I must have been seeing things that day! "
"Don't follow me. Also, I'm just a beginner. "
Lan Mu didn't want to talk nonsense with him, so he retorted.
After all, yesterday he used his bow to punish the murderer and slapped the police in the face. He didn't want people to know that he was good at archery and arouse the police's suspicion.
However, Du Yu was obviously a thick-skinned person. He didn't care about Lan Mu's attitude.
He still smiled and said, "Don't! Brother Mu, don't worry. I won't spread it. But I saw it with my own eyes. It's useless not to admit it. "
Lan Mu sighed. He turned around and looked at him. "What do you want?"
"Don't treat me like an outsider. I apologize! I was wrong! "Du Yu directly apologized.
Lan Mu nodded. He thought, "Looks like you know you were wrong. You actually investigated me. But I also blame myself for being careless. I can't be too ostentatious when I use my archery skills in the future. "
Who would have thought that Du Yu would immediately say, "That day was a misunderstanding. I didn't know you were a man. I had eyes but couldn't see. Don't worry! You're not a woman at all! "
"…."
Lan Mu stared at him indifferently. After a while, he said a sentence.
"Get lost!"
