After chatting with Zhou Chen for a while, Boss Liu gave Zhou Chen the keys to the dojo and returned to his house to recuperate.

He told Zhou Chen that he would not come to the dojo often for some time, and that he had to manage everything himself.

“Don’t worry, I’ll make some plans in the next few days. Once I’m done, I’ll put them into action.”

The new employee, Zhou Chen, still had a few flames of desire burning in his heart. Although there were only some sparks at the moment, he felt full of motivation.

After Boss Liu left, Zhou Chen did not immediately start planning on how to develop the dojo. Instead, he began his personal training, such as punching the sandbag and practicing spear arts.

After the training, he felt a little tired. He took out his phone and began to search for information on various aspects of the dojo industry to understand how to develop a dojo.

“Firstly, Weijiang Dojo is a small dojo that has been officially registered in Yang City. Although it is without any reputation, no, it should be a little notorious now, but it’s still a proper dojo. There’s no problem with its legitimacy.”

“In order to develop the dojo and attract students, other than the basic facilities and advertising, there needs to be results. The main thing is the students’ results in the competition, or the coaches’ accomplishments.”

“The dojo industry seems to be a small industry in Dragon Country. But recently, various reports have said that the development of the dojo industry is good. I don’t know if they are trying to fool some investors… No, recently, the survival system’s influence on society has increased. Survivors have a need to increase their combat strength. This trend might be true…”

Zhou Chen learned about the various aspects of the dojo industry on the Internet and conceptualized his development plan.

When his thoughts were confused or his body recovered, he would continue his training.

The day passed peacefully. Zhou Chen trained in the dojo for a long time and learned a lot of information about the industry on the Internet. He even went to an unlucky buffet restaurant to sweep the area in the afternoon. He closed the door of the dojo at 5 p.m. and walked to his rented room.

He could actually choose to live in the dojo, but that would expose some things about him in the long term, so he chose to live outside.

He walked into the building and went up the stairs. He saw a huge middle-aged woman walking down the stairs. She was his landlady, Landlady Wang.

Just as he was about to ask Landlady Wang about other available rooms for rent, he heard a young man’s voice from behind her.

“Auntie Wang, I… I don’t want to work hard?anymore¹!”

The voice sounded hesitant, but it was filled with determination, as if it contained the will to face death.

Zhou Chen, who was still some distance away, was stunned. He wondered if he had heard wrong.

However, Landlady Wang quickly turned her huge body to reveal a short-haired youth behind her. She looked at him arrogantly.

“You don’t want to work hard anymore?! Hehe, it’s too late! I don’t care about your type anymore.”

After saying that, she turned and continued down the stairs.

Zhou Chen, who was at the bottom of the stairs, felt that the atmosphere was a little off. He was a little hesitant about mentioning the room to Landlady Wang.

Landlady Wang walked down the stairs step by step. While she was shaking the stairs, she noticed Zhou Chen who was standing at the bottom of the stairs.

“What’s wrong, Zhou Chen?”

She looked at Zhou Chen and smiled.

“From the looks of it, you also don’t want to work hard anymore?”

“NO!”

Zhou Chen was instantly frightened out of his wits by Landlady Wang’s words.

“I just want to terminate the lease contract at the end of this month.”

Zhou Chen had originally wanted to change to a better room in this building, but now he was a little afraid, afraid of someone thinking about him.

“Alright, move everything away before the end of the month and do some cleaning. I’ll give you your deposit when I come to check.”

Landlady Wang was not surprised by Zhou Chen’s reply. Landlords like her often encountered people who suddenly wanted to terminate the lease contract.

After the huge Landlady Wang left the building, Zhou Chen walked up the stairs and brushed past the short-haired young man.

The short-haired teenager did not look upset about being rejected. He only frowned and looked a little worried.

When Zhou Chen’s gaze passed him, he had a calm expression, as if he was not ashamed of his previous actions.

‘This person is quite brave…’

Zhou Chen felt that this was an extraordinary person and could not be underestimated.

After this strange episode, Zhou Chen quickly returned to his rented room. He would be leaving in a few days.

“Let’s find a place to move tomorrow. It’s okay if it’s a little expensive. I have a job now.”

Zhou Chen felt that his requirements for a room were a little too high today. He wanted to live in a spacious, comfortable, and cheap place. His thoughts were limited by the hard-pressed graduation period in his previous life. In fact, his current income was quite good, and he could live in a better room.

The night passed quickly and calmly. The next day, early in the morning, he went out to look for a room. action

With his experience yesterday, he already knew the general distribution of the nearby rental houses. In addition, he increased the budget for the rent and quickly found a satisfactory rental apartment not far from the Weijiang Dojo.

It was a well-equipped apartment with a bedroom, a living room, a kitchen, and a bathroom. It was 90 square meters in size and had various furniture and appliances. There was also a balcony. The lighting was good, and the surroundings were not as noisy as many places in Yang City. It was very suitable for him.

Soon, Zhou Chen signed the rental agreement with the new landlord, a middle-aged man, and paid the deposit.

“Twenty-five hundred Dragon Country bills a month. It’s a little expensive, but I can’t be bothered to look for another place.”

After finding an apartment, he arrived at Weijiang Dojo before nine in the morning and began his training and development plan.

After leaving the dojo at five in the afternoon, he returned to the small rented room after having a meal outside and began to move his things to the new apartment.

Because the original owner was poor and he had not bought many big items recently, he only called a small moving car to move his belongings .

After entering the new spacious apartment, Zhou Chen felt good. He looked at the kitchen and the large refrigerator and felt that he could cook his food by himself in the future.

“The things outside are still not reassuring. In the future, I will buy groceries and cook food for myself.”

As he thought about these trivial matters, Zhou Chen recalled the important matters.

“The next Survival mission is tomorrow. I wonder what I will gain this time…”
