Chapter 16 Renting an Apartment
"You didn't see it at the time, damn! Lao Fang was so awesome back then..."
"Really? He's definitely more awesome than Lu Qian. You didn't see it? Ouch..."
Fang Yu had a towel draped around his neck and toothpaste and facial cleanser in his cup. He had just returned from the bathroom when he heard Huang Xiang in the dormitory talking in a vivid and eloquent manner, bragging about his performance yesterday.
"Let me remind you, 8 o'clock is National Economics. He Wenhui called the roll twice before."
While putting on his T-shirt, Fang Yu gave his three adopted sons earnest instructions.
"A senior from the previous year told me that if anyone in her class failed to ask for leave after less than three roll calls, they would be directly deducted 41 points at the end of the semester, and everyone in the National Economics exam would have to retake it."
Luo Ziming pushed his glasses up, startled: "Is He Wenhui so cruel? I didn't realize it, he's so gentle and polite."
"Haven't you heard of the three smiling tigers in the School of Economics? Hurry up, it's already seven forty." Fang Yu put on his shoes without waiting for his adopted sons. They all rode bicycles to class, but he ran there.
Fang Yu's grades were not bad. Although he was not a genius, his average credit score of 92/100 in his freshman year definitely ranked him at the top of his major, and he hardly missed any classes throughout the year.
Even though Fang Yu has already stepped half a foot into the realm of arcane, he has never thought of giving up his studies.
After returning last night, Huang Xiang asked the dormitory manager to let them back to the dormitory in exchange for two boxes of Da Zhou.
After returning, although Fang Yu was very sleepy, he still cast an arcane spell to cleanse himself, meditated for a while, and then fell into a deep sleep.
This is also what Fang Yu learned from a book. He used arcane tricks to replace bathing. The cleaning ability is excellent and every pore can be cleaned.
After each meditation, Fang Yu could feel that his total magic power had increased.
According to the extent of the improvement, he quantified the amount of improvement himself.
If you can maintain three meditations a day, you should be able to cast spells eight times without gain in about a week.
That means that when he uses the Rubik's Cube to cast spells, his magic power will be enough to last 16-18 times!
Freedom of casting has been achieved.
This pace of progress shouldn't be considered slow, right?
Since there was no reference and no teacher to guide him, Fang Yu had no idea what his progress was.
There were only two classes of international economics in the morning, and there were originally two classes of physical education in the afternoon, practicing the 24-style simplified Tai Chi, but Fang Yu had something to do in the afternoon, so he simply skipped it.
The 30,000 yuan I earned last night greatly alleviated my urgent needs. I have to rent a house near the school in the afternoon.
——
"That's so dirty... Shit! And there's a used condom?"
Fang Yu cursed under his breath and used the water shaping technique to control a brown water ball with a diameter of more than half a meter to clean every corner of the kitchen.
What is amazing is that when the water ball leaves the area where the water flows, all kinds of oil and dirt are brought into the water ball, but the surface it passes through remains dry.
Although arcane tricks can also achieve cleaning effects, and are faster and more effective, Fang Yu still chose to use the water shaping technique that he had just analyzed in the study room yesterday afternoon to clean the house he had just rented.
The main reason is that arcane tricks can only clean an area of a little more than one square meter at a time. This old two-bedroom, one-living room public housing unit is nearly 30 years old and is 55 square meters. If arcane tricks are used, it will take three to five days to clean it.
Water Shaping is different. The spell lasts for one hour, which is enough for Fang Yu to complete most of the cleaning work.
After finishing two classes, Fang Yu went to the school gate to find an Aijia agency.
The local real estate agency mainly deals in school district housing and student rental business, and is very professional. After listening to Fang Yu's needs, they immediately took Fang Yu to see three houses.
In fact, when Fang Yu saw the first set, he thought it was okay. After seeing three sets, he still chose the first one.
It is about one kilometer away from the west gate of National University. The community is not big and is called Wenhuiyuan. It has only 6 buildings and 15 units. It used to be the staff housing of Haixi Daily.
The apartment was in Building 3, on the top floor, room 601 on the sixth floor. It cost 3,800 yuan a month, with a deposit of one month and three months' rent in advance. It was fully furnished, though a bit dated. Adding half a month's rent in the agency fee, Fang Yu had already lost more than half of the 30,000 yuan he had just received the day before.
The landlords are a young couple who bought a school district house. However, because their child is still young, they did not move in and rented it out for two years.
The landlord had actually cleaned the house after the previous tenant moved out, but it was a thirty-year-old house after all, and there was still a lot of dirt in the corners.
Fang Yu is a bit of a germaphobe. It is very inconvenient to take a shower at the National Xiguan Campus. There is only cold water in the dormitory building, and the only way to take a hot shower is to go to the bathhouse. Fang Yu still maintains the habit of taking a shower every day, even in winter.
"Fuck, the sink is still broken." Fang Yu discovered that the sink started to leak not long after it was used. He put his head under the cupboard to check and found that there was a crack in the drain pipe.
Fang Yu didn't ask the landlord to repair it. If he did, he would have to wait for a whole day, and he couldn't afford to waste that time.
After taking a quick look around, Fang Yu took two refrigerator magnets from the refrigerator, peeled off the black magnets on the back of the magnets and held them in the palm of his right hand.
"Unitas, Integrare, Redimo!" Fang Yu chanted the spell, and magic power was instantly infused into a symbol on the Rubik's Cube.
The two magnets in the palm of his right hand heated up slightly, and then a faint light came out from the tip of his right index finger. Fang Yu gently ran his fingertips across the crack, and the crack in the sewer pipe was like the two magnets in his palm sucked together. After a few seconds, the crack disappeared.
"Done!" Fang Yu looked at the magnet with satisfaction. There were some tiny cracks on it, so it should be able to be used a few more times.
Please call me the strongest restorer!
It's a pity that I don't know much about jade antiques, otherwise I could specifically look for those things whose value drops drastically after being damaged, repair them, and then resell them to get rich quickly.
The antique business is very complicated. The seller tells you that this is a Tiantong official kiln red glaze plate that he bought for 100,000 yuan, but it was accidentally broken. He sells the fragments to you for 20,000 yuan. You think it is cheap, so you take it for appraisal after it is repaired. The result is that it is new, completely new, and the original fragments are new. It is not worth selling it for even 500 yuan.
But it doesn't matter, there are plenty of opportunities. Fang Yu even feels that even if he doesn't learn any magic in the future, with just the few tricks he currently masters, if he becomes a cult leader, he might be able to rule the world.
Arcane Tricks, Water Shaping, Repair, and Electric Claws are the four zero-ring tricks Fang Yu currently masters.
The time required to analyze the models of these four spells varies, with the longest taking two and a half hours and the shortest taking just a few dozen minutes.
A considerable amount of time is spent on debugging parameters.
Fang Yu had already made plans. After cleaning up the room, he would work hard tonight to analyze and construct two more spells. In this way, he would meet the requirements for promotion to a formal wizard in terms of spell mastery.
"Let's call it a day!" Fang Yu snapped his fingers and looked at the results of his work this afternoon with satisfaction.
Not to mention, even if it is an old house, it will look much better if the cleaning work is done properly.
Finally, I used water shaping and arcane magic to clean the fabric double sofa in the small living room, and the cleaning work after renting the house was officially completed.
Look at the time, it’s 6:30 in the evening, no wonder it’s already dark.
Go eat something first, then go to the supermarket to buy sheets, bedding and daily necessities
The landlord had replaced the door lock with a combination lock, so Fang Yu didn't need to bring a key. He just took his cell phone and wallet, put on a casual shirt over his T-shirt, and went out.
That girl across from me has a nice figure...Huh? Why does she look familiar?
Fang Yu saw two girls talking and laughing as they walked into the community across the street. One of them was Tang Yufei, whom she had just separated from in the early morning.
She also lives in this neighborhood? What a coincidence, right?
However, she also went to the study room in Futon last time, which means she lives nearby.
Fang Yu casually ate a bowl of beef noodles on the basement floor of Times Shopping Mall, then went to the supermarket to buy some daily necessities such as bed sheets, toothpaste, toothbrushes, kitchen utensils, and a few pounds of dried meat.
Considering the inconvenience of going to class later, I bought a folding bicycle. When I checked out, it was over 3,000 yuan.
There was less than 15,000 yuan left in the bank card, but Fang Yu was not in a hurry. Not counting the 10,000 yuan that Li Yuxuan had written on his IOU, Chaoyue still owed him 34,000 yuan.
Today is Monday, and Chaoyue will probably have to pay the money to himself in the next few days, or at the latest after the weekend.
As for Sun Yang, if they said they would send him in to work on the sewing machine, then they would send him in to work on the sewing machine.
After buying things and returning to Wenhui Garden, Fang Yu tidied up a bit and began to analyze the spell model.
Fang Yu likes socializing, but that doesn’t mean he can’t stand loneliness.
In fact, a score of 680 in the science subject of the National College Entrance Examination cannot be achieved by IQ alone. Without several months of studying late into the night, even Einstein would not have scored 445.
"Why does this model look so disgusting? It's the same spell from the enchantment school, but the resistance-enhancing model just now looks much better." Fang Yu curled his lips as he looked at the spell model on the laptop screen that was slowly wriggling its tentacles like an octopus.
"Forget it, I'll just learn this 'bad words' and today's mission will be completed." Fang Yu remained calm, staring at the computer screen, entered the sea of consciousness, and began to construct a spell model of "bad words" in it.
This spell is very interesting. The target of the spell is yourself. After casting the spell, cursing others can cause serious mental damage to the insulted target whose mental strength is not higher than your own, causing symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, vomiting, etc. The harsher the curse, the greater the damage.
If the other person has a weaker constitution and some underlying diseases like heart disease, then the scolding can really kill him.
The best part is, as long as the other person has hearing, even if you don’t speak the same language and can’t understand a single word you say, “bad words” can still be effective.
It’s a pity that I have been well-educated since childhood, respecting the elderly and loving the young, treating people politely, never saying bad words, and not swearing very much. It seems that this magic will be of no use in the future.
Fang Yu made the final stroke in the sea of consciousness, injected magic power, and the octopus-like "bad words" were sucked into the Rubik's Cube in an instant.
"Done!" Before Fang Yu could take a look at what the icon of this spell looked like, a voice suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Obtained Level 22 authority from Lorin Tower. Do you want to start the second switch?"
