Chapter 4 Miss Hong Kong Pageant

"Aren't you afraid of ghosts?" Steven asked in surprise.

"What's there to be afraid of ghosts? They are much cuter than human hearts." Hu Xiaoxiao said.

Aban immediately agreed and said, "Pretty girls are really brave. If you dare to rent it, I will help you negotiate the price with the landlord and let him give you a few hundred yuan off."

He has owned this house for a long time, and the landlord has long said that if he can rent it out, the commission will be doubled.

Aban took the key to Building B and took the elevator up. The first house on the east side was exactly that house.

The door opened and it was dark inside. It seemed as if a cold air seeped out, making people shiver.

Steven often encountered these things when he was working on a case, and he immediately reminded Hu Xiaoxiao, "Some things have to be believed. As a girl, you'd better find a cleaner house to live in."

"I'm not afraid." Hu Xiaoxiao stood at the door and looked inside. He looked around thoughtfully for a moment, then walked in and opened the curtains in the living room.

The sunlight shines in from outside. Standing in front of the window, you can see the outside view at a glance, and you can even vaguely see a glimpse of the sea view.

Hu Xiaoxiao looked at the three rooms again and was very satisfied. The layout and lighting of this house were the best among the houses she had seen today.

"That's it."

But Steven and Aban were not feeling well. Even though there was plenty of light in the house and sunlight was visible, they still felt like they were in a gloomy basement.

"Would you like to reconsider it?" Steven urged again.

Even Aban had a rare moment of conscience. "Yes, pretty girl, there are still two houses we haven't seen yet. Do you want to finish looking at them first?"

"This is it." Hu Xiaoxiao had made up his mind.

Aban kept his promise and called the landlord to negotiate a discount. In the end, the landlord only charged 1,500 yuan in rent, and included the property management fee and agency fee, but the prerequisite was that he had to pay the full rent for half a year first.

Hu Xiaoxiao had 10,000 yuan in his hand, but 9,000 yuan was spent on rent for half a year, leaving only 1,000 yuan left.

After completing the formalities and buying some daily necessities, I only had a few hundred yuan left.

Steven was so distressed by what he saw that before leaving, he repeatedly told Hu Xiaoxiao to find a job as soon as possible, otherwise even eating would become a problem.

After seeing Steven off, Hu Xiaoxiao closed the door and turned around.

She closed her eyes, tilted her head back slightly, and took a deep breath.

It was as if a cool breath penetrated into her nose and fell into her stomach.

When she opened her eyes again, she burped.

The gloomy feeling in the room seemed to disappear suddenly, the sun shone in, and the room finally became warm.

Hu Xiaoxiao recovered some of his soul power and invited out the original owner's soul that was about to dissipate. After helping her condense her soul, he used the last bit of his demonic power to send her to reincarnate.

After doing all this, Hu Xiaoxiao suddenly felt relaxed and comfortable, and she no longer felt any sense of heaviness in her connection with her body.

She had paid off all the karma between her and the original owner, and from now on, this body truly belonged to her.

Hu Xiaoxiao moved her body comfortably. The only thing she was not satisfied with was that she had used up all her magic power.

It’s such a sad thing, I have to reward myself with a good meal.

When Hu Xiaoxiao went to buy daily necessities just now, he had walked around the neighborhood and took a fancy to a tea restaurant that was doing good business.

Hu Xiaoxiao went to the tea restaurant and ordered two more chickens for a full meal.

There are office buildings near Huangfu Haoting, and several multinational companies have settled in.

Because there are many people working here, there are more and more restaurants providing meals, including various tea restaurants, roast chicken stalls, tea rooms, etc.

Business is good and there are many job advertisements.

The next day, after eating chicken, Hu Xiaoxiao walked to the door of a teahouse and saw the words "Recruiting Workers" written in big letters on it.

"Are you applying for a waiter position?" The teahouse manager came out and noticed Hu Xiaoxiao's broken Hong Kong dialect, realizing he was new to the city. "Do you have an ID? We don't hire illegal workers here."

Hu Xiaoxiao showed the manager the receipt for the ID card application and asked, "How much is the waiter's salary? Two thousand a month? Can it be more?"

Hu Xiaoxiao calculated that two thousand a month was not enough for her to eat PUBG.

The manager was amused by Hu Xiaoxiao. "Pretty girl, the salary for a novice waiter here is only 1,000 yuan. You want 2,000? You want more? Why don't you become your own boss?"

"Isn't the monthly salary for a waiter in Gangcheng 2,000?" This is what Hu Xiaoxiao's distant cousin said. Could it be a lie too?

"Who told you that? Over a thousand yuan a month is already the highest-paying shop on this street. We only offer this salary because business is good and the work is hard. In the past, we only hired experienced workers. You have no experience, so we have to teach you everything, which is very time-consuming."

Hu Xiaoxiao left the teahouse and went to other places recruiting waiters to ask. The salary was lower than the other, and one place even offered 800 yuan a month.

Hu Xiaoxiao stood on the street, his arms folded across his chest, his head tilted, and began to think.

Through observation, she found that the better the decoration of the restaurant, the higher the salary.

So she walked two more blocks and came to a high-end-looking, magnificently decorated Western restaurant.

Through the glass, she saw that the men sitting inside were dressed in suits and the women were dressed up.

There are also many foreigners who don’t look like they are from Hong Kong, or what people in Hong Kong call “ghosts”.

"Our salary here is 2,500 yuan a month," the restaurant manager said. "But you have to know English. We have a lot of foreign customers, so not knowing English is a must."

Finally, she found a waitress who paid more than 2,000 yuan, but Hu Xiaoxiao didn't know English, and more than 2,000 yuan a month was still too little. She had to eat chicken and pay rent.

"Can you give me five thousand?"

"Of course not, you're confused!"

Hu Xiaoxiao humbly asked, "Do you know of any job that's both easy and well-paid?"

"You want a leisurely life with lots of money?" The manager looked Hu Xiaoxiao up and down and said, "You're pretty, why don't you become a prostitute? Being a beauties, let alone 5,000, even 10,000 a month is easy. You're so young, you can earn it if you work hard. Do you see the nightclub up ahead? Go ask there, they're hiring."

Hu Xiaoxiao shook his head, "I don't want to be a prostitute."

She reported the case to the police because she didn't want to be a prostitute.

"Then there's nothing we can do." The manager walked towards the restaurant, passed by the magazine rack, and stopped when he saw the newspaper on it out of the corner of his eye.

The manager picked up one of the stacks of newspapers, went back and called Hu Xiaoxiao, who was about to leave, and waved the newspaper, "If you don't want to be a prostitute, go be Miss Hong Kong."

"What does Miss Hong Kong do?" Hu Xiaoxiao walked back and asked in confusion.

The manager was just teasing Hu Xiaoxiao, but Hu Xiaoxiao took it seriously and couldn't help laughing and said, "Miss Hong Kong is a big star."

Hu Xiaoxiao suddenly realized that she knew the big star. Steven had mentioned that there was a big star who bought the same car as him.

Those who can afford a car are very rich people.

She immediately felt that she was well suited to finding a job as a big star.

"Where should I apply to be Miss Hong Kong?"
