"Brother Thousand Faces, where did you find this follower? He's quite sensible. My shop is short-handed, and I don't know why, but lately even some wandering ghosts and spirits have become scarce. No ghost is willing to work for free; they all ask for wages, food, and lodging. Hey, isn't that just being unreasonable?!"
"Your restaurant is so big and located in Shanshui City, there are lots of people there, could you spare a few for me?"

"Do you know about the Ghost Market Auction?"
"A few days ago, it seems that the president of the chamber of commerce on our street brought back a high-end item from outside. The auction in the middle of this month is for that item."
