After going out to eat something, Yu Hongzhou came to the store again. At eleven o'clock, he put three sticks of incense at the door as usual.

At 11:55, a special guest came to the door.

"Young man, is there a good mansion?" A short and thin old man with a pale face came in.

As soon as he saw the old man, Yu Hongzhou immediately stood up, walked to the door, closed the door and locked it from the inside, and then lowered the curtain.

"Sit down, please. You're polite." Yu Hongzhou said as he took out a small chair made of black cardboard from the cabinet next to him.

The short and thin old man nodded, sat down slowly, and said, "Young man is not bad, he knows the rules."

"Haha, I'm the one who eats this bowl of rice. What do you call me, father-in-law?" Yu Hongzhou stood with his hands down and pinched the base of his middle finger tightly with the tip of his thumb.

"Thanks to everyone's love, you all call me Zhang Yuanwai." The short and thin old man said.

"It turns out that it's Zhang Yuanwai who is in front of me. I've heard of you. Why do you want to buy a mansion? Don't you have a blessed land?"

"Damn it, Baili, I got angry when I mentioned this. Your human excavators are now starting construction on my blessed land!" The short and thin old man's body shook, and a cold air hit his face.

Seeing this, I believe everyone has almost understood the identity of this old man. This is an old ghost. Because he built bridges and roads and performed good deeds during his lifetime, he has a long life after death. As long as he does not commit any crime, he will not even be black and white. Will arrest him.

"Uh, is your old blessed land the one recently developed by Jiuxing Plaza?" Yu Hongzhou said with wide eyes. The so-called blessed land is a fixed fiefdom where the ghosts of good deeds stay in the world. Generally, in sparsely populated suburbs, it is also the responsibility to keep a place safe. , if it is kept well, there is a chance to be promoted to the Immortal Class like Tu Tu Gong.

"That's where it is." Zhang Yuanwai looked helpless, "In recent years, the development of your world has been so fierce that there is no place for us lonely ghosts."

"Haha, Zhang Yuanwai was joking. The development of Jiuxing Plaza will also be good for you. As the population increases, you will have more responsibilities and more room for display. In the future, an amusement park will be built there. As long as you protect the children playing there, As long as we are safe, this merit will keep rising!" Yu Hongzhou enlightened.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuanwai's face looked much better, but he still said angrily, "That's true, but now there is non-stop construction there day and night. My house is about to collapse, and I can't sleep peacefully."

"Okay, please wait a moment. I'll look for a house that suits you." Yu Hongzhou comforted the other person while opening the drawer and taking out a book with a black cover and flipping through it.

After about ten minutes, Yu Hongzhou raised his head and said, "Sorry for the wait, there is a nice house in Tianshui Town. The original owner was the tomb of a Jinshi during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. His life span was exhausted three months ago and he has gone there." He has been reincarnated, and the requirement for the sale is to take care of his family's descendants, which will only take a hundred years at most. After a hundred years, the children and grandchildren will have their own blessings."

"Tianshui Town? The town that the high-speed rail crosses?"

"Yeah, but don't worry, the house is twenty miles away from the high-speed rail, so it won't be noisy."

"That's good. The Jinshi's house is also spacious. Yes, I want this house. As for taking care of his descendants, that's no problem. But it's only been a hundred years. Young man, how do you charge for this?"

"One incense meritorious deed, or an antique worth at least 50,000 yuan will do." Yu Hongzhou said.

"I won't give you any merit. I think it's too little for me. I'll give you an antique." After saying that, Zhang Yuanwai took off an off-white ring from his hand and placed it on Yu Hongzhou's table. "This is made of ivory. According to the currency valuation of your world, it should be between 7 and 9."

"Thank you, Member Zhang, for the reward." Yu Hongzhou smiled, and then took out a piece of yellow paper filled with characters. He burned it with a lighter, and a piece of the same yellow paper appeared in Zhang Yuanwai's hand.

"This is the house deed, and it also contains information about the descendant of the Jinshi."

"Well, that's it." Zhang Yuanwai stood up.

Yu Hongzhou quickly opened the curtains and opened the store door. When he turned back, the store was already empty except for an ivory wrench on the table.

"Huh~" Yu Hongzhou breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was not the first time he had dealt with such an old ghost, every time he encountered it, it was still like fighting. He pinched his middle finger just now to block the yang energy and resist the yin energy on the opponent's body. Although these old ghosts are good ghosts with merits and virtues, the evil energy accumulated over a long time is not something ordinary people can bear. If ordinary people are exposed to them for a long time, they will inevitably have some physical problems, but they are not fatal.

"Call it off and go to bed!"

………………

The next day, an old lady in her seventies walked into Yu Hongzhou's store and said she wanted to buy a house.

This old lady is an acquaintance. She lives nearby and comes here every now and then. In fact, she doesn't really want to buy a house, but her children are busy alone in other places.

"Grandma Zhou, what house do you want to see today?" Yu Hongzhou asked the old lady with a smile. He was a guest coming in, so he would not rush out. Besides, he happened to be free at the moment, so he just thought of chatting and strolling with the old lady.

"Are there three-bedroom apartments on the 10th to 17th floors of the elevator room? The rough ones are the best." Grandma Zhou said with the same smile.

"There must be one. Come on, I'll take you to have a look. It's nearby." Yu Hongzhou took the key and locked the door of the store, then walked slowly with the old lady.

The area along Yanjiang Road is basically filled with elevator rooms. Five years ago, a powerful developer spent huge sums of money to acquire 60% of the vacant land in this area.

After walking for about ten minutes, the two entered a rough three-bedroom apartment on the 16th floor. They stood in the living room and had a panoramic view of the river.

"Oh, you young people like this house better, but we old people don't like to look at the mountains and rivers..." After taking a few glances, the old lady started to use her best tricks and find faults in all kinds of ways.

Yu Hongzhou reluctantly agreed. The old lady really just wanted to find someone to chat with. Half an hour later, the two returned to the store.

"Xiaoyu, I'll go back and discuss with my son and ask him if he likes this kind of house with a river view." After her interest was satisfied, the old lady stopped pestering anyone and quickly left.

"Grandma Zhou, let's go slowly." Yu Hongzhou saw the old lady off and sat back at the computer. He took out the ivory wrench he harvested last night and pointed it out.

This thing is the old ghost's belongings, and it has accumulated a lot of sinister energy. The ring is placed on the table, next to it is a silk handkerchief, this handkerchief is full of spells, which makes you dizzy at first glance.

Yu Hongzhou put on the mask and then carefully wiped the finger with a handkerchief. Some invisible smoke slowly separated from the finger.

After more than an hour of continuous wiping, the wrench no longer emitted black smoke.

"It's almost ready for shipment!" Although the ring is simple in color, its surface is extremely rounded and has a thick patina. It feels like your mind is clear after putting it on your finger.
