A Ghost’s Business Proposal

“Oh, you should have said so sooner! After all, you’re a ghost with far more experience than any ordinary person, possessing vast knowledge. A ‘small goal’ of three hundred million yuan should be nothing for you, right?”

To be honest, Bai Wanwan’s change of expression was far swifter than even the little ghost girl, Liu Hanzhi.

Though Bai Wanwan had lost a five hundred yuan service fee, she had gained a little ghost girl willing to help her clear her ‘small goal’ of three hundred million.

And the price was merely helping Liu Hanzhi enter the cycle of reincarnation.

What difficulty could that possibly pose? Once the debt was settled and Bai Wanwan was free, she could casually pen a few letters and inquire around.

She could ask the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, or even the Nine-Five Supremes, one by one. Even if they were aloof, casting a wide net would surely net some kind souls. By leveraging her connections and clarifying the misunderstanding, wouldn’t Liu Hanzhi be able to re-enter reincarnation?

“Actually, earning this money is quite simple; it just requires a bit more time.”

Even to Liu Hanzhi, a debt of three hundred million yuan was by no means a small sum.

What she found even more incomprehensible was how Bai Wanwan, such a young girl, had managed to accrue so much debt.

‘Had she been playing Three Kingdoms Kill?’

“How do I earn it?”

Bai Wanwan glanced at Liu Hanzhi, then reached out to smooth down the ghost’s upturned skirt.

Feeling a measure of security, Liu Hanzhi finally exhaled softly, her thoughts settling into calm.

“With your abilities, earning money isn’t difficult. Just this Immortal-Binding Talisman alone is incredibly formidable.”

“The moment this item appears, any demon or monster will be scared witless on the spot.”

Liu Hanzhi spoke with absolute certainty, for she knew best! If ghosts could urinate, she would have been scared senseless dozens of times by Bai Wanwan already.

“Is that so?”

Bai Wanwan looked at Liu Hanzhi, then at the冥婚 (Ghost Marriage) decorations in the room. If ghosts truly existed in this world, wouldn’t her own abilities make earning money as easy as picking it up?

It was just that attracting clients might be a little challenging. After all, Bai Wanwan looked like a delicate, frail young girl, bearing no resemblance whatsoever to those venerable, immortal-like masters.

“Of course! Do you know how I earned the money for my live-streaming website’s premium membership?”

Liu Hanzhi pursed her vivid red lips, speaking softly.

“I earned it all by setting up a stall and telling fortunes.”

Liu Hanzhi’s words made Bai Wanwan stumble.

“Setting up a stall? Telling fortunes? You? Weren’t you a malevolent spirit suppressed in the City West Cemetery?”

Bai Wanwan scrutinized Liu Hanzhi from head to toe. With her current appearance, if she were to set up a fortune-telling stall, people seeking her out probably wouldn’t be doing so for their fortunes.

“I am capable of moving around. Even prisons have yard time, so there’s no problem with me going wherever I wish. As long as I burn a paper effigy, I can briefly gain a physical body for about a day. My biggest issue is being unable to reincarnate.”

“Moreover, ghosts living in the mortal realm need to earn some living expenses to buy incense for themselves, don’t they? Otherwise, we’d have starved to death long ago.”

Liu Hanzhi looked at Bai Wanwan with an expression that clearly said, ‘Please don’t project those stereotypical ghost images from novels and movies onto me.’

“As for those supernatural incidents at the City West Cemetery, they were simply me, tired after a day of activity, returning home with an unstable physical form, and coincidentally being spotted by someone.”

“Normal people who see ghosts are bound to experience mental confusion. Seeing a ghost also proves that either they are chosen individuals like you, or they have committed too many misdeeds, causing their Yang energy to weaken. Such people are usually not far from death.”

Liu Hanzhi said helplessly. She wanted to stretch her aching shoulders, but with the Immortal-Binding Talisman controlling her, even blinking seemed a strenuous effort.

“In this world, there are countless supernatural phenomena involving ghosts. And I am certainly not the only malevolent spirit unable to reincarnate.”

“For humans, having a malevolent spirit nearby, even if unseen, can affect their luck and even their lives.”

“At such times, if you were to step forward and subdue these malevolent spirits, wouldn’t the affected individuals be eternally grateful to you? By then, wouldn’t earning as much as you desire simply be a matter of opening your mouth?”

Liu Hanzhi’s explanation stirred a hint of interest in Bai Wanwan.

However, what she was pondering wasn’t the question of earning money…

If all malevolent spirits were as beautiful as Liu Hanzhi, then wouldn’t it be…?

‘Hehehe…’

Yet, the problem remained clear: Bai Wanwan certainly possessed the ability, but where would she find people afflicted by malevolent spirits?

Ding-dong.

Just as Bai Wanwan was deep in thought, her phone suddenly chimed with a text message.

It wasn’t a debt collection message, but a cross-bank transfer notification. It was her basic salary from last night’s live stream; gift revenue was usually settled only at the end of the month.

This hundred yuan was earned through Bai Wanwan’s hard work throughout the night. Unbeknownst to her, the sky outside had slowly begun to brighten.
