Chapter 267: One-Day Tour to Ghost Gate
"It's better to separate the market." Yun Shuang raised the corner of her mouth slightly, "Sister Bai's club is high-end, focusing on luxury health packages.
The aunt group takes the affordable route, focusing on daily skincare products. This way, each has its own customer base, isn't it a win-win situation?
"This..." A hint of surprise flashed in Bai Youyou's eyes.
The head of the aunt group immediately jumped out: "I agree! Our customers are not those wealthy ladies anyway."
Bai Youyou nodded gently: "Miss Yun is right, then it's settled."
The barrage in the live broadcast room exploded:
"This is a great trick, host!"
"You don't offend either side, and you can make two profits!"
"As expected of a rising star in the business world!"
Yun Shuang was about to speak when the system suddenly prompted: "The Yin hour has arrived, and the Ghost Gate is about to open."
"Everyone, I'm going to Ghost Gate." Yun Shuang said to the live broadcast room, "See you later!"
As soon as she walked out the door, she saw Qian Gui already waiting outside.
The guy was wearing a red satin suit and a small hat on his head, looking like a nouveau riche.
"Miss Yun!" Qian Gui came over, rubbing his hands. "I dressed up specially so that I can go with you to meet the Ghost King."
Yun Shuang looked at his outfit and almost laughed out loud: "Are you going to pay New Year's greetings?"
"This is my best clothes!" Qian Gui turned around proudly.
As they talked, they had already reached the outskirts of the city. On the distant hillside, a black portal loomed, and a tall figure stood before it.
"General Zhao!" As soon as Qian Gui saw the man, he immediately nodded and bowed and approached him.
Zhao Tie was still wearing black armor, with a pitch-black long sword hanging from his waist.
He didn't even look at Qian Gui, and turned to Yun Shuang: "Miss Yun, the ghost gate has opened, please follow me."
The three of them approached the Ghost Gate and saw countless hideous ghost faces carved on the two pitch-black doors, and black air constantly seeping out from the gaps between the doors.
"This aura..." Yun Shuang frowned, "Why is it so cold and gloomy?"
"It's just ghost energy." Zhao Tie took out a jade token and said, "Just wear this."
Yunshuang took the jade token and saw the words "avoid ghosts" engraved on it.
As soon as she put it on, the cold air disappeared.
"I want one too!" Qian Gui looked at Zhao Tie eagerly.
Zhao Tie snorted coldly: "You are a ghost to begin with, why do you need a ghost-avoiding card?"
Qian Gui shrank his neck in embarrassment and dared not speak anymore.
At this moment, the ghost gate suddenly made a "creaking" sound and slowly opened.
A black gas surged out from the door and instantly enveloped the three people.
"Don't be afraid." Zhao Tie said, "Follow me."
Yun Shuang followed Zhao Tie through the black air. When her vision returned, she found herself in a completely different world.
The sky was dark red, the ground was covered with black weeds, and in the distance there were eerie buildings.
Countless ghost lights were floating in the air, flickering like fireflies.
"Is this the ghost world?" Yun Shuang looked around.
"This is just the edge of the ghost world." Zhao Tie said, "Go forward and you will reach the ghost market."
Qian Gui came over and said, "Miss Yun, look over there!"
Yunshuang looked in the direction he pointed, and saw a group of ghosts floating in a line from a distance.
Each ghost held a number plate in his hand and looked anxious.
"That's for reincarnation," Zhao Tie explained. "It's not easy to reincarnate nowadays. You have to wait in line."
"How long?"
"At least three years, at most ten years."
Yun Shuang gasped: "So long?"
"That's right!" Qian Gui interrupted, "That's why many ghosts are unwilling to reincarnate and would rather stay in the ghost world and do business."
As he was speaking, a huge city gate appeared in front of him. Above the gate hung a plaque with the words "Ghost Market" written on it.
Several ghost soldiers in black armor stood on both sides of the city gate. When they saw Zhao Tie and his men approaching, they immediately saluted: "General Zhao!"
"Let him go." Zhao Tie waved his hand.
The ghost soldiers made way, and Yun Shuang followed Zhao Tie into the city gate. As soon as she entered the city, she was stunned by the scene before her.
The streets were lined with shops with variously decorated facades, some selling talismans, some selling magical instruments, and even some selling snacks from ordinary life.
People are coming and going on the street, no, it should be said that ghosts are coming and going.
"What kind of store is that?" Yun Shuang asked, pointing to a store with a dark front.
"That's the shop run by the Black Mountain Demon." Qian Gui came over to explain, "It specializes in selling weird things. Let's not go there."
As he was speaking, an old man in a tattered Taoist robe walked out of the store with a skull in his hand.
When he saw Yunshuang, his eyes lit up: "Little girl, would you like some Yinhun Pills?
I guarantee that your cultivation will greatly increase!"
"Get lost!" Zhao Tie shouted angrily, "How dare you harm our distinguished guests? Believe it or not, I'll chop off your head!"
The old man shrank his neck in fear and quickly slipped back into the store.
"Miss Yun, don't pay attention to these charlatans," Zhao Tie said. "I'll take you to a decent place."
He took Yunshuang and turned into an alley, and a magnificent building appeared in front of them.
Two rows of maids stood at the door. When they saw Zhao Tie, they shouted in unison, "Welcome, General Zhao!"
"This is......"
"The Ghost King's reception room." Zhao Tie said, "The Ghost King is already waiting inside."
Just as Yun Shuang was about to take a step, Qian Gui suddenly stopped her and said, "Miss Yun, I'll be waiting for you outside."
"how?"
"I...I'm not qualified to enter." Qian Gui rubbed his hands, "Only distinguished guests of the Ghost King's Palace can enter here."
Yun Shuang nodded and followed Zhao Tie into the gate. As soon as she entered, she saw a dozen or so ghost clan leaders in gorgeous clothes drinking tea and chatting.
"Isn't this Bai Youyou?" Yun Shuang saw the beautiful woman in white at a glance.
Bai Youyou smiled at her: "Miss Yun is here."
"Huh? The aunties are here too?" Yunshuang saw the group of brightly dressed aunties again.
The leader of the aunt group said with a smile: "We can't let Bai Youyou get ahead."
"Hahaha!" A loud laugh rang out, "It seems that Miss Yun's business is doing well!"
Yunshuang turned around and saw a man in a black dragon robe sitting in the main seat.
He has a dignified appearance and an extraordinary aura. He is the Ghost King.
"Greetings, Lord Ghost King." Yun Shuang saluted.
"No need to be so polite." The Ghost King waved his hand, "Come, sit down and talk."
As soon as Yunshuang sat down, she saw a hot female ghost coming over with tea.
She was wearing a red cheongsam with a frighteningly high slit.
"This is Hongxiu," the Ghost King introduced. "The most beautiful woman in my mansion."
Hongxiu poured Yunshuang a cup of tea and said with a charming look: "Miss Yun, I am your fan."
"Sister Hongxiu, you're too kind."
"By the way," the Ghost King said, "I heard you brought a lot of goodies?"
Yun Shuang immediately opened the storage space and took out a bottle of pepper water: "Master Ghost King, this is my signature product."
"Oh?" The Ghost King took the bottle, "Is this the legendary chili water?"
"Why not let Hongxiu try?" Bai Youyou suddenly spoke.
Hongxiu was stunned: "Me?"
"What? You don't dare?" The leader of the aunt group also joined in the fun.
Hongxiu gritted her teeth and said, "Who said I don't dare!" Then she took the bottle and took a sip.
"Ah!" Hongxiu jumped up immediately, "It's so spicy! So spicy!"
She ran around the halls breathing fire, making everyone laugh.
"Interesting!" The Ghost King laughed, "This thing is good, it can make ghosts feel spicy!"
Yun Shuang took the opportunity to say, "Master Ghost King, I have brought a lot of new products. I wonder if I can open a store in the ghost world?"
"Of course." The Ghost King slammed the table, "I'll grant you a piece of land right in the center of Ghost City!"
"Thank you, Master Ghost King!"
"But..." The Ghost King narrowed his eyes, "You have to agree to one condition of mine."
"What conditions?"
"I want to be your first spokesperson!"
Yun Shuang was stunned. What was going on? The Ghost King actually wanted to represent her?
