In the evening, the cinema closed for maintenance.
It was still noon in the shopping street, and Lu Yao came back to inspect the shops as usual.
After making sure that the other four shops were open for business, she went to the Furry Shop to find Ji Zhixin.
Ji Zhixin sat at a table in the corner of the small restaurant with a laptop in front of him.
The entire shopping street was actually covered by network signals, but only the areas of the shops that were not in the alien space could receive them.
However, perhaps because the Dream Country was already connected to Lu Yao's world, they had their own special network that connected the world, and the computer that Lu Yao left in the snack bar could also be used by the staff.
Except for the shop owner and the snack bar, all other shop staff's information is monitored by the system. With the restrictions of the confidentiality agreement, no information about the shopping street will be leaked.
Ji Zhixin was contacting old acquaintances at this time to discuss the price of the movie that Lu Yao wanted.
Lu Yao greeted him and sat down opposite him, "How is the negotiation going?"
The water drop seal brought iced sour plum soup and sashimi platter. Lu Yao was indeed a little hungry. He touched the furry round head of the little seal and picked up the chopsticks.
Ji Zhixin raised his head, "The price they offered is a little higher than our budget, and we are still negotiating."
Lu Yao: "How much higher?"
Ji Zhixin: "They asked for 5 million, and I think we can negotiate it down to 2 million."
Lu Yao picked up the spoon beside the plate and prepared to eat the sea urchin, "Uh, this is a little higher?"
Buying clothes in the mall, bargaining for half the price is not as fierce as this.
Ji Zhixin: "It was a low-cost fairy drama two or three years ago. It didn't make much of a splash when it was released. It's not bad to have this price now." Lu Yao
was stunned.
Brother Zhixin is more skilled at work than the former uncle of the God's Messenger, and he is more confident and experienced in familiar fields.
If it weren't for the injury to his leg, he wouldn't have been useless for many years.
Lu Yao thought he was better than professionals in his field, and nodded, "If we can come to an agreement, I will be happy. If it is really difficult, the price can be relaxed appropriately."
Ji Zhixin shook his head, "No, our budget is not much, and we need to edit and optimize it again after buying it back, which is another expense. The price must be as low as possible. Don't worry, I can come to an agreement."
The shop owner never revealed the truth, but Ji Zhixin and Ji Feiming knew something.
She has wealth and friends in various worlds that ordinary people can't imagine, but these things are strange and can't be brought to this world.
Not only that, the shop owner has been spending money from this world to run the store in the other world, and the funds on hand may be quite tight.
Ji Zhixin thought that because of the lack of money, the shop owner chose to occasionally reveal the existence of the shopping street to a small number of people in this world.
Otherwise, he might not have had the chance to come to the Furry Shop.
Ji Zhixin touched his leg, and a not-so-upright thought came to his mind - fortunately the shop owner was still poor and had weaknesses, otherwise he might still be trapped in the dim bedroom of his hometown in Tianji, self-exiled, like a walking corpse.
Lu Yao believed in Ji Zhixin's ability, so he didn't say anything more, just said: "Thank you for your hard work."
Ji Zhixin shook his head, "I didn't expect that one day I would be able to return to my old business. These things seem to be more interesting than five years ago."
He used to like working and it was easy for him to get a sense of accomplishment from work.
Five years later, after climbing back from the lowest point with difficulty, his perspective on problems and ideas on how to deal with things became clearer and more thorough.
After chatting with Ji Zhixin, Lu Yao walked around the various areas of the Furry Shop again.
Everything was normal in the store, the furries were in good condition, and a certain number of autistic fish left the Sea of Eden every day.
After visiting the underwater area, Lu Yao went to the water fishing room again.
Fu Chi was up there, and he came almost every day.
Most of the time, he sat alone on the pier, looking into the distance, or looking down at the sea. Lu
Yao stood by the window and looked for a while, then walked over and sat down on her knees beside him, "Mr. Fu, how are you feeling recently?"
Fu Chi turned his head to look at her, his eyes dull, and he shook his head slightly, his voice hoarse, "It's still the same."
This world is very quiet and beautiful.
Here, he can feel the peace in his heart.
But because of this, the painful memories will come out more clearly, eroding his consciousness bit by bit.
He came here frequently, not to heal himself, but to keep getting stuck in memories and torturing himself repeatedly.
Lu Yao heard Bai Jing talk about Fu Chi's situation.
A few months ago, he was kidnapped abroad and was rescued a week later.
No one knew what he went through in that week. After returning, he was in a daze and had no will to live.
"This treatment failed. The Furry Shop is not suitable for you." Lu Yao bent one leg and held it with both hands. The other leg hanging in the air gently lifted the sea water. A few sperm whales passed by not far ahead.
Fu Chi also saw it.
These whales seem to like this sea area very much, and they pass by in groups from time to time.
He has also seen schools of killer whales, dolphins, and huge blue whales.
"Ten million, in less than half a month." Fu Chi's face was expressionless and his tone was cold and hard.
Lu Yao's face was calm: "I said before I came here that I can't guarantee that you can recover. As of now, the furry shop has no effect on you. For your situation, we can provide two options. Do you want to try?"
Fu Chi was stunned: "What?"
Lu Yao: "Option one, there is a way to directly erase memory here. Option two, I recently opened a new store, which is next to the movie theater. Zhixin said that you used to be a director, and you should know more about movie-related things than me. I have a suggestion, do you want to come over to work and relax?" Fu
Chi was even more surprised than before. His usually lifeless eyes widened a little. He looked at Lu Yao in disbelief: "You want me to work in your store?"
Taking 10 million to adjust psychological problems, and working part-time?
Fu Chi was almost amused.
He actually smiled. “How dare you say that.”
Lu Yao said seriously: "These are the two best plans based on your situation. It's up to you to choose. If you don't like plan 2, choose plan 1. Don't worry, I'll do it quickly and make sure you forget all the unpleasant past."
Fu Chi didn't doubt that Lu Yao could erase his memory.
It's just that he no longer had any curiosity, nor did he want to change anything.
Lu Yao observed Fu Chi's expression, but unfortunately his expression was numb and he couldn't see anything. "Whether you want to change the treatment plan, you should think about it again. When you've thought about it, just contact me directly."
After leaving the furry shop, Lu Yao prepared to go back to the nail salon to catch up on some sleep.
Da Wuchao's hours were different from other shops, and it was in its infancy, so it needed the owner's care all the time. Her schedule had been particularly chaotic recently.
The system suddenly popped up: [Why does the owner care so much about Fu Chi and invite him to work in the cinema? ]
Lu Yao: "He has been in the furry shop for treatment for almost half a month, and his condition has not improved significantly, so naturally we have to think of a new way."
System: [The agreement we signed before was to treat him in the furry shop, and you rarely take the initiative to invite people here to contact the other world. Could it be that you like him? ]
Lu Yao couldn't help rolling his eyes, "You have watched too many dramas recently, and you are good at making up your mind. Please, he paid 10 million. If he can't be cured, won't he feel uncomfortable holding the money?"
Fu Chi's situation is different from the emotional problems of ordinary people. He was born in a privileged family and had a smooth life in the first half of his life. Suddenly, he suffered a heavy blow and fell too deep to get up.
Such a person, when he is quiet, may just be dwelling on the same thing over and over again.
It is better to get him moving so that he has no time to think about random things. Perhaps the effect will be better.
System: [What if he chooses to erase his memory and is unwilling to come to work?]
Lu Yao: "Then erase it. I fully respect the wishes of the customers."
Late at night, Lu Yao was awakened by the system reminder.
[The store has been successfully upgraded and is currently a one-star store. Please keep working hard!]
Lu Yao glanced at the time. It was half an hour earlier than the alarm she set.
After being woken up, she could no longer fall asleep, so she just got up.
When she arrived at the cinema, she first went to see the upgraded screening room. There was an extra row of seats and it looked much more spacious.
Screening Room No. 2 is opposite Screening Room No. 1, with the same layout and size.
Lu Yao felt that she finally had the feeling of being in a movie theater.
Back at the counter in the lobby ticket area, she added the trailer of "The Little Chef of Shengjing" to the playlist.
In the morning, Zhu Zhu, Wen Jian and Gou Zi came to work on time and were surprised to find that a screening room had appeared in the corridor overnight.
Wen Jian and Gou Zi were suspicious and did not dare to ask more.
Zhu Zhu was lively and asked Lu Yao while having breakfast.
Lu Yao's face was normal: "The store was renovated and expanded last night."
Zhu Zhu: "Can it be expanded in one night?"
Lu Yao nodded: "Six hours will be enough."
Her expression and tone were too calm, as if this was a very normal thing.
During this period of time, Zhu Zhu and the others have been exposed to many strange and inexplicable things such as computers, movies, and popcorn machines. Their ability to accept things is indeed slowly improving.
Without asking any more questions, they had breakfast and started to work.
Today, Zhu Zhu and Wen Jian took turns in their positions. Wen Jian was in charge of ticket sales, and Zhu Zhu was in charge of ticket checking.
Gou Zi followed Lu Yao and continued to familiarize himself with the popcorn machine and beverage machine. At the same time, he guided guests in and out of the screening room and was also responsible for the cleaning of one screening room.
The fact that there was an additional screening room in the store did not attract much attention among the guests for the time being. Many people were visiting the cinema for the first time and thought that the store was originally like this.
The advertising screen in the rest area showed a new trailer on this day. The film "The Little Chef of Shengjing" was highly anticipated.
Lu Yao planned to release "The Little Chef of Shengjing" three days after "The World's Number One".
As the movies were shown one after another, the reputation of the cinema gradually spread beyond Song'an Street, and even many people in the nearby market heard about it.
Ku Ba rushed for two days and arrived in Liangjing. He found a small stall on the street to eat.
People at the next table were talking about the cinema and Ye Qingzhou, but he didn't understand.
After eating, he came out and asked someone for directions. The person said, "You are looking for the cinema. Just walk along this street and turn left and you will see it. You don't need to look carefully. The most conspicuous and strange thing at first glance is the cinema."
Ku Ba walked to Song'an Street, and there was indeed a particularly strange shop in the middle of a row of shops.
Even from his perspective, it seemed strange.
He walked over quickly and hid outside the door to observe.
Suddenly, the advertisement screen in the store began to play advertisements for popcorn and cola. Xingzi, Xiaoqie and Baiming, who were dressed in ancient costumes, appeared on the screen. Kuba's eyes were fixed on Xiaoqie, and his eyes flashed with incomprehensible emotions.
After all, he was a killer, and although he was extremely curious, he did not rush into the store immediately.
Lu Yao came back from the street and saw a man in purple lying on the glass, staring at the screen in the store stupidly.
The man's clothes were loosely draped on his body. He looked handsome, but his temperament was sharp, which was a little different from the people of the Dawu Dynasty she had seen.
Kuba noticed the sight, turned her head to look over, and was startled by Lu Yao's clothes. She suddenly covered her eyes with both hands: "You are so reckless!"
Why doesn't this man dress properly?
Lu Yao: "..."
How dare someone with his clothes pulled up to his shoulders and half of his chest muscles say that about others?
Ku Ba didn't hear any response from the other side. He opened his middle finger and ring finger a little, and when he was caught peeking, he suddenly closed it. He turned around, pulled off his outer robe, and handed it to her with his back to her , "Why don't you put on some clothes?"
Lu Yao was a little surprised. This man was interesting. "Thank you for your kindness. If you are interested in the movie, why don't you come in and buy a ticket to watch it."
Ku Ba still didn't dare to look back. He shook the purple outer robe in his hand and said, "Put on your clothes first."
At this time, Zhu Zhu called from inside: "Shopkeeper, the machine seems to have a problem and won't issue tickets." Lu
Yao ignored Ku Ba and turned back to the store.
Ku Ba's ears twitched slightly, and he looked back and blinked continuously.
Is she the female shopkeeper that the employer wants to investigate?
Lu Yao dealt with the machine problem, looked up and saw a person standing in front of him, and took a step back in shock.
The young man who had just been lying on the glass came in at some point and was looking her up and down.
She asked, "What's up?"
Ku Ba nodded and pointed to the rest area next to him, "Come with me." Lu Yao
came out of the ticket counter and asked again, "What's up?"
Ku Ba stood in front of the advertising screen without saying a word.
After the trailers of "The World's Number One" and "The Little Chef of Shengjing" were finished, the advertising screen finally appeared. He pointed at Xiao Qie's head in the screen and asked, "Is his hair natural?"
So that's what happened.
Xiao Qie's purple hair was noticed by customers for the n+1th time, and many people also asked about Xingzi's pink hair.
Lu Yao went back to the snack bar to ask, and both of them had normal hair color when they were alive.
After arriving in the Dream Land, the hair color changed, and the reason is still unknown. Lu Yao
shook his head: "Special makeup, not natural."
Ku Ba's eyes widened, he looked at Lu Yao, and then quickly lowered his eyes: "I also want such hair, how to do it?"
At least dozens of people have asked about Xiao Qie and Xingzi's hair, this is the first person who wants to have the same style.
Lu Yao looked at his long hair tied up. If he had purple hair, it would be so scary walking on the street.
She lowered her eyes: "Well, this matter is a bit complicated, and it can't be done in a short time."
Ku Ba raised his head: "It doesn't matter, you take your time, I have patience. What's your price?"
Lu Yao: "...It's not a matter of money."
Ku Ba: "Since money is not a problem, what else is the problem?" Lu Yao
: "..."
Ku Ba stayed in the cinema and begged Lu Yao to make purple hair for him.
Even with his persistent words, the shopkeeper did not soften his heart, and he began to tell a story.
Ku Ba had an opponent since he was a child. That person was born with silver hair and could not see, but he was extremely talented in martial arts.
From childhood to adulthood, Ku Ba had never defeated him.
Ku Ba dreamed of defeating that person, and he studied hard, but after more than ten years, he still could not get an advantage over him.
When he saw the eggplant purple hair just now, Ku Ba woke up from a dream.
That person was so strong, it must be because his hair was different from others.
If he also had purple hair, he might be able to defeat him.
After listening to the first second, Lu Yao said: "..."
This person has lost his face in order to dye his hair.
The second second.
Silver hair, blind, strong martial arts.
The third second.
She raised her head slowly: "Okay, I can dye your hair. In exchange, you can work as a clerk in my theater for three months."
Kuba was very happy that there was such a good thing, and was worried that he had no excuse to approach her, "Okay, I promise you. When can I... dye your hair?"
Lu Yao: "Ten days later."
