Chapter 3, this young lady possesses a beauty that eclipses the moon and shames the flowers

Feeling that her question was somewhat inappropriate, Shen Qianzi added: "How much money would it take to buy a large house in the capital?"

Yueqin City : `` ... ... ''

Looking at the 'ghostly woman' before him, there was a deep-seated disgust in the depths of Yue Qincheng's dark eyes, and the elongated corners of his eyes also revealed a trace of disdain

She is currently toiling hard to play the ghost and collect money, isn't it all for the purpose of avenging that Shen Qianzi in the capital as soon as possible

Shen Qianzi felt an inexplicable annoyance in her heart, and she yanked off the fake tongue used for ghostly impersonation, throwing it at the terrified man: "Damn it, why are you screaming like a ghost? I've been hearing your wailing all night long, aren't you tired of it?"

Shen Qianzi did not regard him at all, bypassing her and walking straight to the man in the jade crown and brocade robe, looking at him with displeasure: "What are you following me for? I haven't received any money from you. Hurry up and leave, don't cause a ruckus on my territory, or else don't blame me for being rude"

This man is clearly wealthy; without even discussing his attire, just the jade pendant at his waist indicates its high quality. In ancient times, there was no technology for high-quality replicas. With her keen eye, she knows that if this piece of jade were to be sold in modern times, it would definitely fetch a price in the six figures or more

Ah—" Looking at the red tongue that had fallen on his shoulder, Yang Zhi jumped up.

It is not that she is arbitrarily asking for a high price, but rather that reality compels her to do so. She is certainly going to the capital, but if she has no place to stay, what is the purpose of her going to the capital

Damn it, how dare you dress up as a ghost to scare us, do you believe I will kill you

After two months, this is the first time Shen Qianzi has ventured out of the mountains

Seeing him pursing his lips in silence, with a cold glint in his eyes, Shen Qianzi furrowed her brows and casually spoke up: "If you don't want to answer, that's fine. However, if you wish to ask me for a favor, it will cost at least two thousand taels of silver. If it's less than that, you might as well seek someone else."

Suddenly, he became furious and turned around to glare behind him: "What do you want from me? I am not haunting you relentlessly, yet you are chasing after me like ghosts. Is this reasonable?"

Yue Qincheng wore a cold expression, and the sensation of blood surging up in his chest once again resurfaced

Is it unreasonable to ask for the amount equivalent to her monthly salary?

Looking at those alluring thin lips and the insidious smile, Shen Qianzi couldn't help but sneer inwardly. This person smiled so treacherously and made such demands, it was clear they were not a good individual, wearing a human facade while likely harboring ulterior motives.

Hearing his pitiful cries, Shen Qianzi was taken aback and finally came to her senses

Yue Qincheng nodded with a smile: "Precisely."

The man still nodded with a smile: "As long as you can handle the matter for me, feel free to state any commission you desire."

Hearing her words, Yang Zhi suddenly pointed at her nose and shouted, "You woman, what an arrogant tone you have. Two thousand taels of silver, why don't you go and rob it?"

Shen Qianzi turned around and glanced at him sideways: "Am I not snatching it?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Qianzi, peering through her hair that obscured her eyes, seriously scrutinized the man from head to toe, beginning to contemplate in her mind

It is merely 2,200 taels of silver, how can one be so reluctant about such a small amount

It is not a matter of fearing that he cannot provide the money, but rather how much money she should ask for that would be appropriate

Shen Qianzi cast a cold glance over, touched her veil, and then straightened her waist and lifted her head to walk forward

Looking at the imposing man before her, Shen Qianzi raised her chin slightly and coldly mocked, "Kill me? Are you not afraid that I will turn into a real ghost to haunt you for your life?"

I have truly never seen such a cowardly person, and he is a man!

Ah—looking at the long red tongue that was dragged to her heart, obscured by strands of hair on half of her face, Yang Zhi screamed in terror once again

The master and servant were waiting for her at the street corner, and when they saw the woman dressed in an old-fashioned manner, with a veil covering her face, Yang Zhi immediately began to mock her.

She does not know what the other party wants her to do, but these are all minor matters. If it involves personal safety, she can just run away. The most important thing is to get the money first

Yang Zhi was immediately filled with frustration: "... ..." This woman is indeed pretending to be a ghost to rob others of their wealth ... ...

However, in order to adhere to the decision in his heart, he suppressed the impulse to leave with a flick of his sleeve and suddenly, with a hint of a smile, said: "It is not easy for me to seek alms for a living, and I happen to need a subordinate to assist me. If you are willing to agree, I will certainly reward you handsomely."

She pursed her lips and suddenly asked, "What is the price of this house?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Qianzi, somewhat incredulous, pointed to herself with her thumb and said, "You want to hire me as your subordinate?"

She paused for a moment, then tilted her chin and said, "If you want me to do something for you, my fee is quite high."

Looking at the figure covered by the old woman's clothing, not only was Yang Zhi's hair disheveled in the wind, but even the man beside him, who was utterly indifferent, couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth

"Alright, just two thousand taels of silver." Suddenly, a man coldly agreed.

In order to prevent her ghostly female attire from tainting his vision, a certain man threw her ten taels of silver and instructed her to buy herself a set of clothes from the tailor.

Every night, she is haunted by Shen Qianzi's dreams. She lacks the patience to learn from others how to farm and plant trees to become wealthy. She only wishes to avenge Shen Qianzi as soon as possible so that she can rest in peace and no longer cling to her in dreams

Grandfather said she was fake, and I didn't expect it to be true! Damn it, I spent the whole night in fear!

How are the prices calculated in this era

This young lady possesses a beauty that eclipses the moon and shames the flowers. I wish to reveal my true self, but who knows whether you two will be tempted by my beauty

Isn't it foolish not to take advantage of business that comes to your doorstep

Aren't you ashamed of your own ugliness

Her previous monthly salary at work was only around two to three thousand

But when he grabbed the ghost's tongue, the sensation in his hand caused him to freeze in place, momentarily forgetting to be afraid out of shock. He quickly brought the ghost's tongue close to his eyes and began to examine it seriously. Upon closer inspection, he suddenly gasped for breath, his face turning ashen as he walked up to Shen Qianzi and growled.

A coward, yet still daring to act arrogantly in front of her

Yue Qincheng's hand, hidden in his sleeve, could not help but clench into a fist, and the coldness in the depths of his dark eyes deepened. If it were not for the fact that this woman still held some value for him, he would absolutely not allow her to act so presumptuously in front of him now

Hmph, it is you who are asking me to do something, not the other way around. What is wrong with me offering two thousand taels of silver? If I do not assist you, I can still earn silver on this mountain, and it would be a risk-free venture. If you wish to invite me out of the mountain, shouldn't you provide a greater compensation?

Yang Zhi, who was following behind him, grabbed his sleeve and exclaimed in fright: "Sir, it's her! It's a ghost!"

Yang Zhi's face instantly darkened
