Xu Yang came back late, and after a series of events, it was already 5 am.
In bed.
Xu Yang leaned against the head of the bed, lit a cigarette, and took a deep puff.
Meanwhile, Yun Mengxi had fallen into a deep sleep.
She had kicked off the blanket and was breathing steadily.
There were even two small fangs visible at the corner of her mouth.
After finishing his cigarette, Xu Yang quietly got out of bed.
He came to the living room, circulated the Divine Ascension Scripture for a full cycle, and immediately felt refreshed, then began practicing the Heavenly Eye
Skill.
Suddenly.
Daybreak arrived.
Xu Yang finished his cultivation and glanced at the system’s attribute panel.
Behind the [Daoist skills], the “Heavenly Eye Skill” had not yet appeared.
This made Xu Yang very distressed…
He didn’t have high demands, as long as the “Heavenly Eye Skill” became beginner level and showed up behind the I Daoist skills], but he didn’t expect it to be so difficult to practice!
During breakfast.
Yang Yin asked, “Boss, are you going to the Ghost Market today?”
“Is the Ghost Market open today?”
Xu Yang had never kept track of time.
He carefully calculated and found that today was already the first day of June.
The Daoist Conference ended on July 13 (lunar May 26), and when they returned to Wu City, it was already July 15 (lunar May 28).
Today was July 18.
It was exactly the first day of the lunar June, the day the Ghost Market opened.
Xu Yang certainly wanted to go to the Ghost Market opening.
As for Liu Shishi and the other girls, they had been preparing for a long time and even rented a stall at the Ghost Market, so they were naturally planning to set up shop.
“Are rented stalls the only option in the Ghost Market?”
Unwilling to let the girls display their wares in public, Xu Yang asked, “Are there any shops? We won’t rent; we’ll just buy a few and open a general store in the Ghost Market. You guys can just be in charge of sitting there and collecting money!”
Yang Yin shook her head and said, “Our merchandise is very popular, so we can sell it just by setting up stalls. There’s no need to waste money buying a store-stores in the Ghost Market are too expensive, and they’re all controlled by the Ghost Market’s managers. You can’t buy one without connections.”
“Expensive?”
Xu Yang smiled, “Our funeral business is not lacking in one thing—money. Later, Yang Yin, go to the store and see how many kg of money we have left. 111 contact the suppliers and have them send a few more tons over if it’s not
enough.”
Yes.
Xu Yang usually measured the money for the funeral store in kg.
He would buy stocks of underworld notes by weighing them in sacks, so talking about sending a few tons over wasn’t an exaggeration.
“As for connections…”
Xu Yang looked at Yue Yuluo and said, “Isn’t our sister one of the managers of the Ghost Market? You can contact her later to help find a few stores, right?
“Alright, my husband, 1’11 go check after breakfast!”
Yue Yuluo immediately agreed, and after breakfast, she hurried away.
After cleaning up the dishes, Xu Yang and the girls went to the funeral store together.
The six Yin spirits stayed in the shop because of the Daoist talismans. Sensing the aura on Liu Shishi, Yang Yin, and Yun Mengxi, they huddled together in the corner, trembling and not even daring to breathe.
Yang Yin checked the remaining inventory in the store and said, “Boss, there’s still some money in the store, but not much…If possible, you can call to have more money sent here.”
She explained, “In the Ghost Market, there are many Yin spirits who died during wars and have no descendants to worship them…or they simply don’t have any descendants, nobody to worship them, and no income. They 11 go around looking for treasures and exchange gold and jewelry for money at the Ghost Market’s money exchanges. Maybe we can also do this kind of business.
“Also, the funeral clothes…”
Liu Shishi added, “Our store’s funeral clothes have too few styles. They’re only suitable for old men and old women. I think we can increase the styles of funeral clothes to attract younger Yin spirit customers.”
“This…”
This did pose a problem for Xu Yang. He said, “Funeral clothes only come in a few styles. After all, they’re for dead people. Who would make them so fancy?” The differences in funeral clothes mostly lie in the craftsmanship and materials.
They’re not like regular clothes, which come in a variety of styles.
Xu Yang thought for a moment and asked, “How were the clothes I cut for you last time? Did they fit well?”
At these words, Liu Shishi blushed and said, “It’s pretty good, but it’s a bit small here…I feel stuffy when I put it on.”
She pointed at her chest.
Xu Yang chuckled.
At that time, he had cut the bra size according to his visual estimation but didn’t expect Liu Shishi’s chest to be bigger than it looked. He said, “I’ll cut a few more for you later, or I’ll simply go to the store and buy a few sets of clothes to be burned for you…huh?”
As Xu Yang was talking, an idea came to him, and he slapped his thigh, saying, “That’s right! We can purchase from the wholesale market! After all, burning funeral clothes and burning clothes bought from a mall are the same. And buying wholesale is cheaper, which means higher profits!”
A high-end funeral suit costs several thousand dollars wholesale, and when brought to the Ghost Market, it only exchanges for a small yellow fish weighing one kg.
Not only are the profits low, but young people also don’t like them. Purchasing from wholesale markets will only cost a few dollars per piece.
The profits would be even greater and sales even higher!
Xu Yang immediately said, “Shishi, Mengxi, Yang Yin, you guys head to the pedestrian street to sweep some goods later. Never mind the age or gender, just buy all the clothes as long as they’re cheap…By the way, Mengxi, how large is your storage ring?”
Yun Mengxi thought for a while and said, “It’s not too big, but it should be fine for all the goods on the pedestrian street.”
The pedestrian street in Wu City was located to the east of the square.
It was a 300-meter-long street, considered to be the busiest area in Wu City..
