Chapter 87: Chapter 85: Exchanging the Shroud for Gold Bars! (Seeking Subscription)
Translator: 549690339
Damn!
Xu Yang was completely dumbfounded!
After eating a seafood dinner, Yang Yin and Liu Shishi said they wanted to go shopping. At that time, Xu Yang thought they were going to a night market and didn’t pay attention, so he went back to the store alone.
Then he came to the Ghost Market with Elder Wang.
Unexpectedly…
The shopping they mentioned was strolling around the Ghost Market.
Looking at the goods on their stall, every single item was from his store.
Xu Yang went over, and Yang Yin, who was inviting customers, looked up in surprise and said, “Oh, Xu… boss, you’re here at the Ghost Market too?”
She originally wanted to say “Master Xu.”
As the words left her mouth, she suddenly remembered this was the Ghost Market, hastily changed her words, and felt somewhat embarrassed. She lowered her head, scratched her shoe with her toe, and whispered, “Boss, 1 took the goods to the Ghost Market without your permission, you won’t blame me, will you?”
How can I blame you after you’ve said that?
“It’s okay; they’re not worth much anyway… by the way, how’s the business?”
Xu Yang could only ask like this.
Yang Yin replied, “Shishi and I just recently arrived at the Ghost Market, and we just set up our stall; we haven’t started yet.”
While talking.
An old man in the crowd spoke up.
Pointing to a black “shroud” on the stall, he asked, “Young lady, how much is this set of shroud?”
Yang Yin enthusiastically said, “Elder, we just opened up, and you are our first customer. If you sincerely want it, 1’11 give you a discount… 30 billion, how about it?”
Xu Yang:”…”
What the hell!
30 billion?
Won’t I lose my ass on this deal?
Never underestimate the shroud; its price is much higher than living people’s clothes!
The usual shrouds are sold in sets.
A set includes three, five, or seven pieces: a cover gown, a cotton gown, a padded gown, an undershirt, cover pants, cotton pants, and underpants. In addition, there’s a longevity sash, a longevity hat, and high-end ones even come with bedding and pillows.
A complete set will cost at least several hundred, with more common ones around two to three thousand, and many even over ten thousand.
For example, the set the old man is interested in, Xu Yang remembers the cost was over 900, and the selling price was 2800… of course, this price is negotiable.
2800, how many netherworld currencies do I need to buy?
Xu Yang hurriedly stopped her, “No, no, Yang Yin, 30 billion is too cheap… I’d lose too much!”
The old man became anxious and cried, “What’s wrong with you? Your wife has already given me a discount… 30 billion is 30 billion! But I’ve been dead so long that my descendants haven’t burned money for me for seven or eight years… can 1 exchange this gold bar for it?”
As he said that,
He pulled out a thick gold bar, which looked to be at least a kilo.
Xu Yang opened his mouth.
Shroud for gold?
Is this even possible?
Instead of giving the gold bar to Yang Yin, the old man raised the question, “Madam, if I’m not mistaken, this is a shroud from the human world, right? If 1 give you gold, how can 1 be sure you can burn it for me?”
Everyone in the crowd was looking.
It was evident they were also worried about this problem.
“Don’t worry, my family has been in business for generations, and we value integrity the most.”
Yang Yin immediately assured, “In the human world, I have some connections, and anyone who pays me and orders goods will have their items burned for them as long as they register their names and eight birth characters. Within two working days.”
“You all must know the rules in the Ghost Market… no going back on deals, no refusal to pay, and 1 naturally wouldn’t dare to deceive everyone.”
“If you’re still worried, 1 can give you an address, and you can come to see me in person when the time comes. 1 will find someone to burn it for you.”
As she said this, the old man felt as if he had taken a reassuring pill, handed over the gold, wrote a note with his name and eight birth characters on it.
Yang Yin took the note and promised, “Elder, you are our stall’s first customer, and I guarantee 1’11 burn the shroud for you as soon as possible.”
“No way!”
Xu Yang spoke again from the side.
The old man got anxious, “What’s the matter? In the Ghost Market, you can’t renege on a deal, and can’t refuse to pay… your wife has already taken my gold; you want to back out now?”
“All!”
Yang Yin shyly exclaimed, “Elder, you misunderstood, he… he… he and 1 are not in the relationship you think!”
Xu Yang:”…”
What does it mean to blush and giggle while explaining?
He looked at the old man and explained with a smile, “Elder, you misunderstood me… In my business, 1 believe in making many sales with small profits, seeking benefits for my family. Since you are our stall’s first customer, if this benefit for you is too little, I’d be heartbroken!”
He said, and stretched out his hand, showing the old man his five fingers, then flipped his hand again, and said, “So, besides this set of shrouds, I’ll burn a dozen girls for you, Elder. How’s that?”
“All?”
The old man was delighted, but still modest, “Isn’t… isn’t that too much?”
“No problem.”
Xu Yang generously announced to the onlooking crowd, “To all customers who buy from our stall tonight, our shop will have gifts for you… in that case, Yang Yin, you go and prepare another 10,000 billion cash red envelopes. We’ll randomly draw and burn them for our customers.”
The stall sold all kinds of funeral supplies.
Of course, the “people” gathered here were not people.
Xu Yang’s words set their excitement ablaze, and they started shopping.
Two female ghosts even almost fought over a skirt.
However, there were also some doubts.
A skinny man didn’t join the purchasing crowd and strained his neck to say, “I don’t believe it. There’s no such thing as a free lunch… You say you have connections in the human world, but I heard that they have set up some Spirits Management Bureau that hunts and suppresses us ghosts everywhere. Did you join the human government as their lackey?”
Yang Yin patiently replied, “If you don’t believe me, I’ll give you an address. The shop is in Wu City. You can go to the human world and see for yourself.”
The man sneered, “Who knows if you’re trying to set a trap for me… Besides, I’ve also heard that there’s a perverted Daoist Master in Wu City who likes to force ghosts to play hide and seek with him. If they don’t agree, he’ll smash them with a hammer… Only the eldest of the Naitou Sisters is left after being smashed!”
Yang Yin:”…”
She subconsciously glanced at Xu Yang.
This way of doing things…
Why does it seem so similar to Master Xu?
Xu Yang was also taken aback.
Fuck… how can ghosts spread rumors like this? When did 1 become a pervert?
The key is that this matter has spread to the Ghost Market. Could it be that the female ghost who escaped from Naitou Mountain has also entered the market?
Before he could speak, a ghost who was selecting goods said, “Don’t pay attention to that guy. He is a stiff spirit that was born from the resentment of fresh blood after someone died on a gate bar…”
Soon.
All the goods on the stall were selected.
There were those who paid with gold and those who paid with jewelry. These things were mostly burial objects for the Yin spirits. It’s just that they couldn’t use them after death, so they could only bring them to the Ghost Market for trading.
Xu Yang looked at the piles of gold, silver, and jewelry, and the mouth under the mask couldn’t help but smile happily.
Yang Yin boasted, “Boss, how did I do? When I go back, you must give me a few more sets of clothes and a few more billion in bonuses.”
Xu Yang: “Don’t worry, 1 can give you billions every day!”
What’s a few billion?
As long as the business expands in the Ghost Market, what can’t be bought?
Meanwhile, Liu Shishi.
She sensed Xu Yang’s joy and teased, “What’s there to be happy about with just this little treasure… There are plenty of treasures in this Duke’s burial… Yang Yin, let’s go shopping!”
The two women left Xu Yang and went to the market excitedly.
As for Xu Yang, he started wandering around aimlessly.
He looked around at the stalls without lights, trying to provoke more “unclean” things. However, it was strange… such situations didn’t occur like before.
Even at one stall, the coffin lid was lifted, and the eyes inside took a look at Xu Yang before quickly closing it again, as if they were afraid.
“I entered the Ghost Market by concealing my aura… The thing in the coffin must not be afraid of me.”
“Could it be…”
“They’re afraid of the one on my back?”
This made Xu Yang couldn’t help but feel curious.
What level is the one on my back?
Is it a Red Rank?
But if it is a Red Rank, can I defeat it?
How can 1 extract merit points from it?
Thinking of this, Xu Yang suddenly lost interest in shopping.
Anyway, Elder Wang could help solve the issue of Ma Long’s Daoist Arts… and today, he made a fortune of several million or even tens of millions. It was better to go back and brush merit points early.
With this in mind, Xu Yang immediately turned and walked towards the “Ghost Gate”.
As he was passing by the “Ghost Gate”, Xu Yang suddenly stopped.
He felt his foot being “hooked” by something.
Lifting his foot and looking down, a large golden ingot lay quietly on the ground.
Xu Yang remembered Elder Wang’s advice… when leaving the Ghost Gate, don’t pick up anything that has fallen on the ground. This was a well-known taboo in the martial world of the entire northwest!
So…
Xu Yang quickly picked up the gold ingot and put it into his pocket with expectation… Does this mean he can provoke another “dirty thing” now?
But Xu Yang didn’t notice.
On his back, a ghostly figure slowly appeared.
This ghost had disheveled hair, and on its pale face was a shocked expression.
This guy…
Must be an idiot!
Didn’t his elders in his sect ever warn him to follow the taboos of the Ghost Market?
Provoking me is one thing.
But he even dared to pick up the gold ingot dropped by that crazy woman?
It seems that after I leave the Ghost Market, I’ll have to quickly deal with this idiot… or else, once that madwoman catches up, 1 don’t want to fight her!”
Thinking of this, the ghost shuddered involuntarily.
“Ding!”
“The female ghost is frightened, merit points +50.”
Xu Yang, who was about to leave the Ghost Market with cheerful steps, suddenly paused… where did these merit points come from?
I…
It seems 1 didn’t do anything???
