Chapter 52 One Ghost is Missing



"No, Xiaozhi, are you here? Second brother knows he was wrong, please give second brother another chance." Quan He couldn't accept this fact, and was stopped by Quan Feng as soon as he finished speaking.

“Xiao Zhi possessed me just now, and I understand her feelings now. We’ve been in the wrong all these years, no wonder Xiao Zhi won’t forgive us. Let’s go, don’t linger here. We don’t deserve Xiao Zhi’s forgiveness.” After saying that, Quan Feng promised to hand over the patent to Song Mian as soon as possible, and then left the funeral shop with his brothers.

Soon after dawn, Song Mian saw off Lin Jiaojiao, Quan Zhi, and Meng Yi.

That evening, Quan Zhi came to Song Mian's shop again.

Unlike last time, Quan Zhi's overall condition seemed much better this time.

“Young boss, I’ve decided to reincarnate.” Quan Zhi’s smile softened as she mentioned reincarnation. “Mr. Meng has chosen a good family for me, so I can have loving parents in my next life. Also, I appeared in a dream to the Quan family and asked them to send you some of the antiques and gems I had in my previous life, along with my patent transfer documents. You’ll receive my patent income in a month or two.”

"You actually appeared in a dream to the Quan family?" Song Mian frowned as she thought of the Quan family. "Didn't they make things difficult for you?"

Quan Zhi gripped Song Mian's hand tightly: "No, they just want me to forgive them, but I'm not the Quan Zhi I used to be. I don't want to forgive them. Boss, you gave me so much courage, I'm really grateful to you. Also, I introduced you to some ghost customers. Miss Lin will bring them over in a little while. Consider it my last token of appreciation to you."

Although reluctant to part with Quan Zhi, Song Mian still saw her off.

A short while later, Lin Jiaojiao arrived with a group of old men, women, and ghosts.

Song Mian took them to a nearby night market.

The night market had all sorts of snacks, all of which the old ghosts had never seen before.

In order to let the old ghosts fully experience the life of modern young people, Song Mian spent money to buy one of every kind of snacks in the night market!

Qi Yefeng specially found an extra-large table to display these snacks. He originally thought that Song Mian wanted to treat the old ghosts to a meal, but unexpectedly, Song Mian turned all the snacks into small sample packs, divided into portions that were enough for the ghosts to take a bite, but not enough to fill them up.

Then Song Mian handed all the sample snacks to the ghosts one by one, and all the old ghosts sighed with admiration.

"Delicious! After being dead for so long, this is the first time I've realized there are so many delicious things in this world! It's so good!"

“In the past, the younger generation in my family would make me delicious snacks, but I never knew how to enjoy them. It wasn’t until I became a ghost that I realized how bitter it was to not be able to eat!”

"Eat! Everyone, eat more! Let's enjoy everything we didn't have time to properly enjoy while we were alive!"

"These snacks taste great, but there's just too little of them; it's not satisfying at all!"

Song Mian had been waiting for this very sentence. She forced a businesslike smile onto her fair face and enthusiastically introduced the various services offered by our funeral clothing shop to the ghosts: "Greetings, fellow ghosts. Now, let me introduce our funeral clothing shop to you."

Our funeral clothing shop not only provides entertainment services, but also offers various other assistance to enhance your well-being. What you just experienced was our tasting service; if you'd like to enjoy more food, you can purchase additional items.

With just one sentence, Song Mian successfully attracted the attention of these ghosts, and then carefully explained how to pay the reward.

This immediately drew the attention of all the ghosts to Song Mian, but they didn't know what to do. With Lin Jiaojiao's help, they each made a deal with Song Mian.

Most of these old ghosts died of old age, and they either had descendants or some burial goods, which could be given to Song Mian as payment.

Then, Song Mian heard the system's voice constantly echoing in her mind.

[Transaction successful. Item traded: One serving of night market snacks]

[Transaction counterparty: Old Master Zhou]

[Transaction Amount: One jade pendant used as burial goods]

[Transaction method: Pending success.]

Once Song Mian learned the location of these burial items, she immediately asked Qi Yefeng for help and asked him to send members of the Qi family to participate in the matter.

Qi Yefeng immediately dispatched bodyguards to retrieve the agreed-upon burial goods, thus completing the transaction with Song Mian.

Some elderly ghosts even sent messages to me in my dreams, instructing their descendants to reward Song Mian.

Song Mian accepted all payment methods without hesitation and quickly sold all the dazzling array of snacks on the table for thirty times the original price.

Qi Yefeng also received one-tenth of the total reward that Song Mian transferred.

This is quite a sum of money. Qi Yefeng watched Song Mian make money using ghosts and his eyes filled with genuine envy: "Miss Song, your ability to see ghosts is truly remarkable. If the underworld could cooperate with you and engage in mutual trade, you would probably make a fortune."

Song Mian was busy taking inventory of the newly delivered antiques when she heard Qi Yefeng's suggestion and became interested: "You mean I can think of a way to cooperate with the people of the underworld... no, I mean with the ghosts of the underworld?"

Seeing Qi Yefeng nodding repeatedly, Song Mian suddenly felt that this was indeed a good idea.

If she could truly establish a connection between the ghost realm and the mortal world, she would have a stable customer base and be able to earn more money.

With this matter noted in her mind, Song Mian waited until the old ghosts had eaten their fill before letting them all return to the bus and taking them back to the funeral clothing shop.

The old ghosts ate to their hearts' content, then passed through the backyard entrance and returned to the ghost realm.

Standing in the backyard, Song Mian greeted each of the old ghosts one by one, and subconsciously counted their number.

To Song Mian's surprise, one of the old ghosts was missing.

"Mr. Qi, do you remember how many old ghosts we took with us when we set off?" Song Mian immediately asked Qi Yefeng beside her. "I clearly remember taking twenty-one ghosts in total. How come there are only twenty left now?"

Qi Yefeng looked helpless after hearing this: "Miss Song Mian, I can't see ghosts, so I can't count the number of these ghosts. How can I know whether there are many or few of them?"
