C18 (1/2)

After chatting a bit more with the boss, I went out to buy 30 paper men. Why don't I do it myself? I'm not in a hurry anyway.

I bought a kitchen knife, went out into the wilderness to find a piece of wild bamboo forest, cut down a few bamboo. He thought it would be easy to be a paper man, but when he moved his hands, he knew it would be difficult. Just cutting the bamboo into small sticks was already hard enough for me. I only cut four sticks in the afternoon, and my hands were covered in blood from being pricked by the bamboo thorns.

At dusk, I gave up. At this rate, I wouldn't be able to do it for ten to fifteen days. I still have to eat and drink, even though I have to pay for my stay at the provincial hotel in the theater.

I left the bamboo and the kitchen knife in the bamboo forest and went back to the stage empty-handed. As we passed the town street, the boss of the paper money shop closed the door and came out. When he saw me, he asked, ”Young man, you haven't left yet?”

”I'd like to leave, but I still have things to do!” I shrugged my shoulders and said, originally, the boss gave me a high price, which was a bit like me being a stick in the bucket. I didn't want to bother with him anymore, but now it was dinner time, so I tried to get close to him and eat some food to save some money.

”What's the matter?” The boss asked, ”Look at you, you're a foreigner. Come to my house for a meal and a drink!” It's also rare for me to find someone who can speak. ”

I followed the boss to his house, ate hot food, drank a glass of Erguotou, recovered a lot of energy.

”Little brother, what exactly are you doing?” The owner took a sip of his wine and asked.

”To tell you the truth, I am a spiritual person. Sending a family of three back to their hometown, and passing by here. ”

”A giver? This is a great job, I thought the real giver was gone! ” The owner said with great interest, ”But you were only passing by when you sent that family of three home. From the looks of it, you seem to be in trouble here?”

I replied worriedly, ”That's right! There's a ghost village dozens of miles away from the town. The ghost of that village stayed there and refused to leave. Since I am giving it to a spirit master, I can't just ignore this matter! ”

”You have a way to send them away?” The owner's eyes widened.

”You know them?” I opened my eyes wide.

The boss slammed the table, lowered his voice and said, ”To tell you the truth, I'm not the only one who knows. Everyone knows about the dead. The town government has a headache there! A few years ago, there was a grant to be made, a road to be repaired, and it happened to pass through that damned village, but at night the place was full of shit, and the explorers were scared shitless and kept dragging it out. The leaders in the town had a headache, if they find people like us who are related to ghost business, they can offer a price of thirty thousand, and whoever can finish off that ghost village, they can't get that thirty thousand. But no one can take it down! ”

”Thirty thousand?” areyousure? ” The moment I got excited, I spoke English.

The owner was stunned for a moment before he asked, ”What Wandering Immortal?”

I adjusted my agitated heart and corrected him, ”Hehe, are you sure it's thirty thousand?”

”Of course, it started with thirty thousand, and now it's even raised to fifty thousand. But no matter how much money they had, no one could solve the problem! Moreover, this matter is related to feudal superstition, and the Town Leader cannot post a Hero thread, and can only secretly find someone to solve it. ” After saying that, he stared at me for a while. ”Little brother, I think you have a way to deal with that ghost village! Tell me about it! ”

This matter concerns 30,000 yuan, so I definitely wouldn't be stupid enough to tell him. What if he finds out about my method and goes to the town head himself to take the rest of the work, then takes the money?

I laughed dryly. ”If I could solve this, I wouldn't have to frown. Sigh, I just heard that having thirty thousand dollars is pretty exciting. ”

”Stop lying to me, little brother. I have sharp eyes. You must have a way, right? Tell me, if you don't believe me, we'll do it together. How about it? Fifty percent! ”

Fifty to fifty, my ass.

The boss saw that I didn't say anything, so he changed his tone and said, ”Six, four, you, six, four!”

I still smiled. ”Uncle, I really don't have any good ideas.”

”One price, eighty-two points, you eight points, I'll two. But if that's the case, then I'll just help you tie the strings.” The boss seemed to have made up his mind.

Actually, eighty-two is not bad. I can get forty thousand. But perhaps because he was too poor, he slept all the way in the wild and ate steamed buns and buns. Furthermore, it's too easy for him to earn 10,000. He only has to string things together and he dares to ask for 10,000. I'll still have to take the risk!

I don't even want to give him ten thousand. I want to keep the fifty thousand for myself.

”Aiyo, uncle, you really think highly of me.” With my current state, if I don't even know where the paper man came from, how can I decide who's in that ghost village? ” I sighed.
