A murder has occurred in the county?!

Upon hearing this, the county magistrate hurriedly put on his coat and prepared to rush out.

"I've finally had two days of peace of mind, how could a murder have happened? What happened!" the magistrate asked anxiously.

"Your Excellency, actually it is..." the subordinate quickly replied.

It turned out that a merchant from out of town had bought a house in the county and, while renovating it, discovered a corpse that had long since decomposed into skeletons in the well.

"Oh..." The tension on the magistrate's face vanished instantly, and he said somewhat irritably, "That happened so many years ago, it's just a skeleton! What murder case? Who knows if someone accidentally fell in while fetching water? Do you have to come and report such a trivial matter to me? Just send a constable to handle it."

"Yes, yes, I'll go right away." Having disturbed the magistrate's enjoyment and received several disapproving looks, the minor official quickly withdrew.

Officials arrived quickly, took the skeleton away, and buried it in a random cemetery.

Upon hearing this, the group felt a deep sense of regret.

"Who is he?" Young Master Liu said angrily, "I'll fire that coachman Xue when I get back. I can't let someone like that work in my house; it's really scary!"

“Yes.” Yan Dajiang nodded and said, “If I had known this would happen, I would have been better off not reporting it to the authorities. I could have paid some money to have the mother and daughter buried together.”

But it's too late to say all this now.

“Brother Yan, I don’t think this house is habitable anymore. You should sell it as soon as possible and stay at my house for the next few days. If you want to buy another house, we can discuss it together,” said Young Master Liu.

Yan Dajiang declined, saying, "No need, I think this house is fine!"

As he spoke, he looked at Lin Wanyue, who was sitting on the swing next to him, and said with a charming smile, "Little fairy, don't you think so? Why don't you help me see if there are any other ghosts in this house? If there are, can you help me drive them out as well? Don't worry about the money, I'm definitely not a stingy person!"

"How many ducks?" Lin Wanyue's eyes lit up as she looked at Yan Dajiang with some excitement.

"..." Yan Dajiang hesitated for a moment, then held up one finger and cautiously replied, "One...one hundred taels of silver?"

Lin Wanyue pouted but didn't say anything.

She's been telling fortunes for so many days, and all she's earned in total is less than ten taels of silver.

Yan Dajiang can ask for one hundred taels of silver right off the bat!

They're definitely rich; they give a lot.

Before she could even nod in agreement, Yan Dajiang noticed her subtle gesture and, thinking she was dissatisfied, cautiously raised his second finger: "If you think it's too little, then... how about two hundred taels of silver?"

"Okay, okay!" Lin Wanyue made the final decision and immediately agreed.

Lin Weiming watched as someone rushed over and squatted down next to Lin Wanyue. His face contorted for a while before he whispered, "Girl, don't you think you answered too soon? If you had waited a little longer, he might have been able to come up with five hundred taels of silver."

Yan Dajiang, who was standing next to him, twitched his lips: "..."

He heard it!

He clenched his fist, coughed twice, and defended himself, saying, "Five hundred taels won't do, four hundred and fifty taels at most."

"Brother Yan, why is this?" Young Master Liu looked confused.

The difference between four hundred and fifty taels and five hundred taels is only fifty taels of silver!

Since Yan Dajiang is already willing to pay 450 taels, why is he still stingy with 50 taels of silver?

"???" Lin Wanyue and Lin Weiming also looked at them with puzzled expressions.

Yan Dajiang's eyes darted around for a moment, then he said, "I'm going to find that broker and get all the extra money back! It's better to give it to the little immortal than to give it to him for nothing!"

Both Young Master Liu and Lin Weiming silently raised their fingers.

So this guy was so generous, he was planning to get something for nothing!

Although the wolf they caught wasn't their own.

Since Lin Wanyue has taken the money, she doesn't intend to shirk responsibility.

She took out a small compass, about the size of her palm, walked around the Yan family's house, and pointed out some of the feng shui arrangements in the house.

"Okay, okay." Yan Dajiang nodded repeatedly, and even took out a small notebook from his sleeve to briefly write down what Lin Wanyue had said.

Young Master Liu watched with curiosity, "Brother Yan, what's going on? Can't you remember these things?"

"Brother Liu, you're young and don't know, but for an older person like me, my mind doesn't work so well. And I've always believed that a bad pen is worse than a good memory, and a good notebook is worse than a good brain."

“Since it’s what the little deity said, it must be like golden rules, and we should all write it down!” Yan Dajiang said with a serious expression.

And that's really what he was thinking.

This little deity is so capable! He can even deal with female ghosts. If he wants to help me get rich, isn't that just a matter of lifting a finger?

After listening to what the little immortal said, I felt that he would definitely make a lot of money in this county this time!

Yan Dajiang was very confident and became even more determined to bring his family over once his business stabilized.

When they left, Yan Dajiang's house was empty, and there was nothing to give as a gift.

"Brother Weiming, here, take this! These are for you too... all of them are for you!" He simply took a few catties of fine tea leaves from the goods he had collected, and stuffed the two hundred taels of silver that had been agreed upon earlier into Lin Weiming's arms.
