That's a huge expense; you need to spend a lot of ghost money to grease palms!
After all, few of the ghosts and monsters that end up here are good people; most of them committed crimes while they were alive.
As Su Yu walked past them, she could feel the malice in their eyes.
However, no one who wasn't afraid of death dared to step forward.
After all, the big hammer in Su Yu's hand looked really scary.
"We need to find a suitable place, take out this batch of goods, set up a stall, and see if we can exchange them for something good."
As Su Yu was thinking this, she saw an empty stall by the bridge.
The area was full of vendors, but that one spot was empty, which looked very strange.
She thought for a moment and then stopped there.
"Is it permissible to set up a stall here?"
She asked the vendor next door who sold white rice, but he just glanced at her coldly and didn't bother to talk to her at all.
Su Yu casually took out a pack of cheap cigarettes, opened it, and distributed them to the surrounding merchants.
The only exception was the person selling white rice.
The guy's face fell, but he didn't dare to lash out because of the big hammer. He could only glare fiercely at Su Yu.
"I'll ask one more time, is it allowed to set up a stall here?"
Then, a vendor told Su Yu, "You can set up a stall, but the price for that location is a bit high!"
Su Yu frowned: "How much do you want?"
"Two hundred thousand ghost coins for one night!"
Su Yu said "Oh," and then asked, "Where do I pay?"
The vendor pointed to the stone statue next to his stall: "Talk to it, it's in charge of collecting money and also maintaining order in this area!"
Su Yu nodded, then casually lit another cigarette and handed it to him.
Seeing Su Yu's generous attitude, the vendor beamed and immediately offered to help Su Yu clean the area. He also offered to help Su Yu hawk her wares if she needed anything.
Su Yu waved her hand, declining his offer of help.
These cigarettes only cost a few dollars a pack, and they're not even considered good cigarettes.
It's just that fireworks are hard to come by in this place, which is why they are so valuable.
After setting up her stall, Su Yu took a seat.
She didn't take out much, just a box of instant noodles and a case of beer from her backpack.
Even though these are just these things, they have already attracted the attention of many passersby.
Beer!
How many years has it been since I've seen beer here?
The stone statue behind him moved slightly, transforming into the image of an old man, who came to Su Yu's side and coughed heavily.
"Hey, pay up! Don't you know the rules?"
Su Yu: "Two hundred thousand ghost coins, right? Okay."
"Who said it was 200,000! The price has gone up now, it's 2 million."
The old man's eyes were fixed on the goods in front of Su Yu, filled with greed: "If you can't pay the stall fee, all these goods will be confiscated!"
Su Yu snorted coldly.
She knew that the old man had ulterior motives.
However, he didn't argue with him, thinking it was better to avoid trouble, and still took out two million ghost money.
Unexpectedly, the old man refused to take the money she offered and coughed heavily again.
"Besides the stall fee, there are management fees, security fees, and the gift for the town mayor. In total, I received ten million ghost money!"
Su Yu's face darkened.
Her tolerance, however, has its limits.
What's the meaning behind this back-and-forth extortion?
"I don't need this stall anymore, thank you."
Su Yu was about to pack up her goods when she discovered that heavy iron chains had been tied to them and seals had been affixed to them.
The old man who was the stone statue had a sly smile.
"You don't want it anymore? Do you think this is a marketplace where you can come and go as you please?"
As he laughed, his face darkened.
"I'm giving you two choices today: either pay up, or I'll throw you into the river to feed the fish."
The surrounding vendors could only lower their heads and pretend they hadn't seen anything.
No one dares to offend this old stone man!
He's the one who calls the shots on this street.
A vendor selling white rice nearby sneered and said sarcastically, "These days, anyone can come to this outlying town! Do you think you're the mayor's daughter?"
Just when things were at a stalemate...
The little girl who had been following the mayor suddenly appeared on the bridge.
She smiled sinisterly, staring at the old man with the stone.
"So this is how you swindle and cheat people by using the mayor's name."
Upon hearing this, Old Man Shi visibly trembled.
He immediately turned around, knelt down with a thud, and kowtowed frantically.
"Miss Rena, I was wrong! I deserve to die, please spare my life..."
"late."
Rena, the little girl, waved her hand and turned the guy into a wisp of smoke.
She turned her gaze to Su Yu.
"You're Su Yu?"
Su Yu remained silent and nodded.
Rena looked her over carefully and smiled, "If you want to set up a stall, come with me. This place is too chaotic and not suitable for you."
While Su Yu hesitated, two paper effigies carried her goods for her, and two more carried a sedan chair over to invite Su Yu to sit down.
Of course, Su Yu refused the strangely shaped sedan chair, indicating that she could walk.
She looked back at the distance.
Although the Demon King and Ryoko could not be seen, it seemed that they were very close.
Ok……
Her intuition was right.
The paper dolls of the Demon King and Ryoko are currently stuck to her back, one on each side, observing the movements around her.
Not far away, their true forms sat at opposite ends of a large tree.
"The old acquaintance you mentioned, is it Rena?"
"Yes, this little guy is still the same as before, he doesn't seem to grow up."
The Ghost King rested his chin on his hand, looking melancholy.
"She used to govern this outlying town herself. Back then, the streets were full of brothels, and succubi were everywhere. Now that this mayor has taken office, she's actually shut down all the brothels..."
Looking back at the old border town, although it was even more chaotic than it is now, it was really interesting.
Unfortunately, everything has already vanished with the wind.
"If I had known that everyone in the outskirts town was doing legitimate business now, I wouldn't have come."
Ryoko also lifted her chin.
"Is the current town mayor a human, or a woman?"
"Yes."
"Should we go and see them?"
"Don't go."
Ryoko was quite surprised that the Demon King so firmly refused the suggestion to meet the mayor.
Logically speaking, this guy is curious about everything, so how could he not be curious about this all-powerful human mayor?
The Ghost King didn't explain much, but simply leaned against the tree trunk and closed his eyes to rest.
Why not go see him?
Ha ha ha ha ha……
Even the Demon King, whose skin is as thick as a city wall, is afraid of meeting the parents.
……
……
at this time.
The town mayor sat on the stone steps by the river, gazing blankly at the lanterns floating on the water.
When Rena brought Su Yu here, she was taking out a photo of Su Yu when she was a child from her bosom.
"My baby~"
She felt melancholy and helpless.
For her, her only concern in this world is her child.
