Chapter 38

"Whatever Brother Jiang needs, just let me know!" Tian Zhan led Jiang Wei to the side and said with utmost courtesy.

It had to be said that, whether in the human world or the ghost world, "status" was a very useful thing. In terms of strength, Jiang Wei was not as good as Tian Zhan; in terms of experience, Jiang Wei was still not as good as Tian Zhan; in terms of age, Jiang Wei was even less than Tian Zhan—yet, just by virtue of being a "disciple of Tianhuang Pavilion," the usually domineering Tian Zhan would immediately bend over and call him "Brother" upon seeing Jiang Wei.

"Brother Tian, you're too polite!" Jiang Wei exchanged some pleasantries and then got straight to the point, "It's like this, Brother Tian, as you know, I died not long ago and have only been in the ghost world for a few days."

"Uh-huh!" Tian Zhan listened attentively.

"I died because my sect encountered a great calamity. At that time, many of my senior sect members and fellow disciples died with me. I wonder if Brother Tian has any way to help me find them?" Jiang Wei looked at Tian Zhan with hope.

The Original Sin City was the territory of Tianhuang Pavilion, and Jiang Wei knew that if Tianhuang Pavilion really wanted to find a ghost in the city, they definitely had a way! If Tian Zhan could do it, Jiang Wei wouldn't have to trouble his senior sister or master.

"This is easy!" Tian Zhan answered straightforwardly, "Brother Jiang, I just need to post your portrait and a brief description in prominent places around the city, and the people from your sect will naturally see it. I can't guarantee finding all of them, but finding seven or eight out of ten should be no problem!"

Jiang Wei was taken aback: "So simple?" Jiang Wei had no experience before, thinking that finding an acquaintance in the vast ghost world would be a difficult task; but after hearing Tian Zhan's words, he suddenly understood.

"Yes, it's that simple!" Tian Zhan smiled, "Of course, it's only relatively simple for us Tianhuang Pavilion. For other ghosts, it's a very difficult task—only we Tianhuang Pavilion can post notices in the city; if other ghosts dare to post privately, it's a serious crime!"

"Uh-huh!" Jiang Wei understood. If any small cat or dog could post notices at will, wouldn't the entire Original Sin City be filled with all kinds of notices and advertisements? In that case, the impact of any notice posted by Tianhuang Pavilion would be greatly reduced—Tianhuang Pavilion, of course, had to firmly control this power of public opinion.

"Brother Jiang, leave this small matter to me, you can rest assured!" Tian Zhan promised, "I'll have people make the notices and post them all over the city!" For Tian Zhan, this was just a trivial matter, and he was naturally happy to help.

"Thank you, Brother Tian!" Jiang Wei said sincerely, "Next time, when you have time, please come and have a drink with the brothers!"

"It's a deal!" Tian Zhan laughed heartily.

At this moment, Li Hao had already brought Zhou Xue into the city; the two ghosts, affectionate with each other, walked toward Jiang Wei. Jiang Wei bid farewell to Tian Zhan and the other ghost soldiers and accompanied the two ghosts to tour the inner city.

It had to be said that the prosperity of the inner city was incomparable to that of the outer city. After all, the highest-ranking ghost warriors in the entire Original Sin City lived in the inner city, and more than 90% of the wealth in the Original Sin City was concentrated there.

As they were walking, Jiang Wei saw two ghost soldiers escorting several small ghosts with bewildered and frightened expressions, seemingly heading toward the outer city, and couldn't help but be curious: "Xiao Hao, do you know what's going on?"

"You mean those small ghosts?" Li Hao knew, "They were born in the inner city, so they are being driven out to the outer city by the ghost soldiers."

The inner city was not a place for just any ghost to enter. There were many patrolling ghost soldiers in the inner city, and once they discovered new ghosts born in the inner city, they would immediately drive them out to the outer city to ensure that only the upper-class ghost warriors of the Original Sin City lived in the inner city.

"Oh..." Jiang Wei understood. Clearly, the inner city only accepted ghosts who were qualified to live there.

Even so, the inner city was still overcrowded with ghosts; it not only housed the formal disciples of Tianhuang Pavilion but also their relatives and friends, the ghost soldiers of the Original Sin Army, wealthy ghosts, and a large number of servants.

The streets of the inner city were very prosperous, with taverns, weapon shops, alchemy shops, and entertainment venues all available. Because it was in the inner city, most of them were high-end, and Jiang Wei and Li Hao toured for a long time but still couldn't find anything suitable for resale.

After all, anything that could be resold was probably already being resold by other ghosts; what Li Hao needed to find were items with less market competition, otherwise, he might not even be able to enter the market.

Zhou Xue, however, was having a great time shopping; shopping was a girl's nature, and even female ghosts were no exception. She didn't necessarily have to buy anything, but just browsing made her very happy.

This was the bustling street of the inner city, which Zhou Xue had never dared to think about before; after all, even the head of the Zhou family, Zhou Lei, did not have the qualifications to enter the inner city.

"Xiao Hao, what do you think about those 'Ziyuan Pills' that can quickly boost one's strength in a short time?" Jiang Wei suggested.

Ziyuan Pills could temporarily boost a ghost's strength to that of an ordinary ghost, making them a very low-level pill. However, Li Hao's target was these low-level items, as he planned to resell them to the outer city.

"These Ziyuan Pills are also sold in the outer city..." Li Hao said.

If they were already sold in the outer city, there was no business to be done.

As they continued to tour, Jiang Wei recommended a few more items, but either they were already sold in the outer city or the market competition was too intense, so Li Hao rejected them all.

Suddenly, Zhou Xue had an idea: "Xiao Hao, why don't we start an 'inner city proxy purchase' service?"

"Inner city proxy purchase?" Li Hao couldn't understand the new term "proxy purchase" for a moment.

"It means that if the ghosts in the outer city need something, we will buy it for them! It's like we'll be their errand runners!" Zhou Xue explained.

"Hmm?" Li Hao's eyes lit up, "This is a novel idea!"

Zhou Xue continued, "This way, we don't need to stock up on inventory; we can buy whatever they need, greatly reducing the risk!"

"Oh?" Li Hao's eyes shone even brighter.

"Also, we can rent a shop in the outer city as a contact point; I can manage the shop and take orders, while you handle the proxy purchases. Hmm... how about we call it 'WeChat Shop'? What do you think?" Zhou Xue became more and more excited as she spoke.

"Uh..."

Once a female ghost started talking, it was really unstoppable.

The three ghosts, chatting and laughing, passed by a luxurious tavern in the inner city—the Original Sin Imperial Court.

At that moment, Jiang Wei's senior brother, Fang Siqi, was sitting at a window seat in the Original Sin Imperial Court. Fang Siqi raised his cup for a sip and, by chance, saw Jiang Wei passing by on the street.

"Hmm, isn't that the new Jiang kid?" Fang Siqi's gaze swept over Jiang Wei, then looked at Li Hao and the Zhou Xue beside him. At this sight, Fang Siqi was immediately attracted to Zhou Xue, "There's such a beautiful ghost in our Original Sin City!?" Fang Siqi was greatly surprised, "Although her aura doesn't quite match Lin Nianluo, she has a unique charm; and looking at her appearance, she is definitely a rare beauty—she must be mine!"

"Senior Brother, that female ghost seems to be the new Junior Brother Jiang's friend!" a ghost beside him reminded.

"So what!?" Fang Siqi said disdainfully, "And... don't worry, I won't act rashly, hehehe... By the way, go and find out about this female ghost's background for me!"

Fang Siqi was still very cautious, after all, being careful was the way to win the heart of a beauty!
