This Taoist Master is too Frivolous

Chapter 194: Chapter 163: How about we marry our husband together?

Translator: 549690339

The atmosphere in the shop suddenly became quiet.

Miss Yue coldly looked at Ma Long, and the overbearing aura of the Ghost King burst out from her. She squeezed out two words through her teeth: “Slap!” Swipe!

Behind her, two ghostly shadows suddenly flickered and appeared to the left and right of Ma Long!

Both of these ghosts were of the Red Robe level, with powerful strength. They controlled Ma Long from both sides and slapped him hard on the cheeks.

Ma Long panicked and felt dizzy from the slaps. He shouted, “Xu Yang, save me.”

Xu Yang didn’t even react, sitting down across from Miss Yue. He asked, “Da Jie, how do you plan to sell this shop?”

Miss Yue didn’t mention the shop’s affairs, and instead asked back, “Is he your friend? Aren’t you afraid that my men will beat him to death?”

“I believe Da Jie is measured in her actions.”

Xu Yang smiled and said, “Besides, letting him get into trouble and learn some lessons is a good thing. This friend of mine has a loose tongue and says everything he thinks. Originally, he was an ordinary person and his family had some money, so that was fine. But now he has entered cultivation, so he’s half a martial world person…”

“He needs to know that when you walk in the martial world, personal relationships and worldliness matters. There are things you can say, and there are things you can’t say… So even if Da Jie kills him, it doesn’t matter. If he doesn’t change this bad habit, he will sooner or later be killed by someone!” These words were a response to Miss Yue, but in reality, they were meant for Ma Long to hear.

Ma Long wailed, shouting, “I know I was wrong… Ah, don’t hit me anymore, it hurts, it hurts, I’m going to die…”

He was beaten for a good ten minutes, with his face swollen like a panda’s, and his socks torn. Even his mother probably wouldn’t recognize him.

Meanwhile, Miss Yue introduced the grocery store to Xu Yang.

“This shop has a total of three rooms, divided into two floors, and covers approximately 600 square meters.”

Xu Yang had already seen the layout of the shop.

Entering the main entrance, there were two suites inside, each about 80 square meters. The three rooms on the first floor added up to nearly 300 square meters, while the second floor was a large open space with a full 300 square meters.

This kind of storefront, if placed in a first-tier city in the human world, would cost tens of millions.

Throughout Da Xia, there are nine “Ghost Markets,” and in terms of lively atmosphere, each Ghost Market is no less than a first-tier city.

Xu Yang had made up his mind…

Even if it costs more money, it doesn’t matter.

His family already had dozens of kilograms of “underworld notes,” and today another two tons were sent over. He could burn all of these for Miss Yue… If it still wasn’t enough, he would have more sent over!

“Yuluo, Shishi, Mengxi, Yang Yin.”

Xu Yang called the four young women and asked for their opinions: “What do you think about this shop?”

“It’s very nice.”

Yun Mengxi was the first to give her assessment, saying, “The second-floor space is very large, and if we do open the grocery store in the future, I can bring my coffin and sleep upstairs when I come to the Ghost Market… By the way, Xu Yang, what about my coffin?”

“Ahem!”

Xu Yang coughed and reassured, “Don’t worry, I’ll have it made for you soon.” Xu Yang had originally wanted Old Master Wang to make Yun Mengxi’s coffin, but now that he’s gone, another solution would have to be found.

He then changed the subject and asked for Yue Yuluo, Liu Shishi, and Yang Yin’s opinions.

Yang Yin hesitated and said, “The shop is nice, but we might not be able to afford it…”

Xu Yang, not short of money, smiled faintly and said, “Isn’t it just money? If 2 tons aren’t enough, let it be 20 tons; if 20 tons aren’t enough, let me ask them to send a train full… Let’s go, let’s talk to Da Jie about the price.”

Downstairs.

Xu Yang asked, “Da Jie, how much for this shop?”

Miss Yue raised her five fingers.

“Five tons?”

Xu Yang said, “I can do five tons, but I only have a little more than 2 tons with a face value of 50 billion now. Let me go back and call to have them send a few more tons, and I’ll burn them all for you.”

He paused for a moment and said, “Let’s just settle for 10 tons, and the extra will be a gift to Da Jie.”

Five…

Five tons?

Miss Yue was stunned.

And the face value of fifty billion?

She looked at the fierce ghost behind her, who immediately took out a calculator from his pocket and calculated: “A brand new hundred yuan banknote weighs about 1.15 grams. A hundred of them weigh 115 grams.” “Underworld notes with a face value of 50 billion are much bigger than RMB. One weighs about 3 grams. A hundred of them weigh 300 grams, totaling 5000 billion.”

“One ton equals 1000 kilograms, which equals 1000 kg, which equals 1 million grams. Divide 5000 by 300 and multiply by 1 million…”

The fierce ghost quickly got an answer, saying, “Ghost King, one ton of underworld notes with a face value of 50 billion is approximately equal to 16,666,667,000,000…”

Xu Yang stared dumbfounded, mumbling, “What were you doing when you were alive?”

The fierce ghost felt a little embarrassed and said, “I was the chief accountant of a state-owned factory… I made a mistake later and hanged myself.”

One ton is that much, so what about ten tons…?

Miss Yue did a quick calculation herself.

She originally wanted to say that to buy this shop permanently, it would need at least 5000 Yin credits.

However, according to the exchange rate between the underworld currency and Yin credits…

It seemed that Xu Yang’s offer of 5 tons of underworld notes with a face value of 50 billion was a better deal. When she exchanged it for Yin credits later, she could earn at least half of the profits. The key point was that Xu Yang was going to burn 10 tons for her, which was another huge sum of money!

“Alright!”

Yue Qiluo immediately took out a contract and said, “A gentleman’s word is his bond… brother-in-law, as long as you press your handprint, this store will be yours from today… Each time the ghost market opens during your lifetime, you can come here to do business, and after you die, your son dies, your grandson dies… generation after generation, the inheritance will be endless, and they can all inherit this store… until your family line is broken!”

Xu Yang:

He felt that Miss Yue was cursing him, but he couldn’t find any evidence.

Just as he was about to press his handprint, at this moment…

“Hold on!”

A voice suddenly came in.

Xu Yang and Miss Yue turned their heads, only to see a tall man stepping in. The man was dressed in a red armor, with special patterns on it, as if it were embedded in his body, looking very peculiar; upon closer inspection, one could see that there were faint red flames rising on the armor.

As soon as he entered the shop, he looked around and sat down with great arrogance.

The fierce ghosts behind him lined up in a row, standing behind him, each wearing armor and holding a po knife, full of momentum!

“Chiyan, what do you mean by this?”

Miss Yue frowned and asked harshly.

Xu Yang’s heart stirred…

Chiyan King?

He had heard from Yue Yuluo that there was a Chiyan Ghost King in the Xi Xia Ghost Market, who possessed Yin Treasure and had cultivated to the Ghost King Realm in just over a decade. Like Miss Yue, he was one of the current administrators of the ghost market!

This Chiyan Ghost King was also the person backing that perverted Lust Demon Ma Long.

Although he couldn’t see with his own eyes, he could sense that Chiyan Ghost King had been sweeping his gaze over him several times since he entered the room… Xu Yang was almost certain that Chiyan Ghost King knew that he was the one who killed Li Chong.

But at this moment, Xu Yang was not afraid of the Chiyan Ghost King.

“Boss Yue, the shops in the Ghost Market are the properties of our Lord!”

Chiyan Ghost King sat in the chair, calmly looking at Miss Yue.

There were no pupils in his eyes, only two flames burning. He smiled and said, “According to the rules of the Ghost Market, we administrators cannot handle these shops privately… To lease or sell them, we need at least four administrators to agree.”

Miss Yue’s face turned cold, and she said solemnly, “Chiyan Ghost King, we both understand the rules… But didn’t you also lease out a few shops in the past few years?”

“That’s different.”

Chiyan Ghost King shook his head and said, “The shops I leased out were priced slightly higher than the market price, and I was considering the interests of our Lord… But what about you?”

He glanced at Xu Yang and said indifferently, “As far as I know, this man is a living person, and he is also a Daoist. Countless Xi Xia ghosts have died at his hands… His notorious reputation as the Iron Hammer Daoist makes the color change in our Xi Xia ghost circle when heard!”

“Moreover, I received information… that he married into your Yue family, and

is your brother-in-law?”

Miss Yue’s gaze turned cold, and she said coldly, “Are you saying that I am favoring him and ignoring the interests of our Lord?”

Chiyan Ghost King suddenly stood up, bowed his fists to the air, and said righteously, “We are all promoted by our Lord, and we have obtained our current positions. As we serve our Lord, we should consider his interests in everything we do!”

“The sale of all shops in the Ghost Market must be settled with the merit of darkness… Does this brother-in-law of yours have that merit?”

Xu Yang was stunned and asked in a low voice, “Shishi, Yuluo, Mengxi… What is Merit of Darkness?”

“Husband, the Merit of Darkness is a saying of us ghosts… When people in the human world scold others, they like to say ‘accumulate some merit of darkness’, ‘a loss of merit of darkness,’ that’s what they’re talking about.”

Yue Yuluo thought for a moment, then added, “It’s actually the merit that you cultivators talk about.”

Merit… merit?

Xu Yang “looked” at his system attribute panel, his merit was only less than 2000 points left after the battle with the “Great Priest of Xuan Mountain Temple”, but in the past few days after returning to Wu City, he had brushed some from Yue Yuluo, Yang Yin, and Yun Mengxi.

He brushed some on the “paper man”, and yesterday he also transcended six ghosts, accumulating 4500 points before and after.

“So, to buy a shop in the Ghost Market, you need Merit of Darkness to pay for it?”

Isn’t this making it difficult for my sister?”

Xu Yang thought for a moment and immediately stepped forward, “Sister, let’s just follow the rules… How much Merit of Darkness does this shop need, how should we trade it, how much should it be? The 10 tons of underworld notes we talked about earlier, consider it as a tribute to you.”

“No need!”

Miss Yue waved her hand and said, “Just as you said, 5 tons with a 50 billion denomination is enough to take down this shop at almost twice the market price, the remaining 5 tons as a tribute to me is enough, just consider it Yuluo’s dowry.”

“How… how much?”

Chiyan Ghost King was stunned when he heard the units of “5 tons” and “10 tons”.

The fierce ghosts behind him were also whispering and discussing in low voices…

Using “tons” as a unit of measurement for money was unimaginable for them in their whole ghost lives.

When Xu Yang heard that Miss Yue said “5 tons and 5 billion denominations” had already exceeded nearly twice the market price, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said, “As long as it doesn’t make things difficult for sister… In that case, you can hand over all 10 tons of money to the owner of the Ghost Market, and consider it as your business performance.”

Xu Yang waved his hand generously, “I’ll burn another 10 tons for my sister later, as a tribute to you!”

Underworld notes.

They’re not worth much!

With such a large quantity, the manufacturer can give a big discount.

He is not short of money now.

That was Xu Yang’s thought.

However, he didn’t know… even though the underworld notes had a large denomination, and the purchasing power was relatively low, counting 10 tons at a time was still a huge sum of money. Miss Yue, hearing this, was overjoyed.

She giggled and said coquettishly, “My brother-in-law is really generous… No wonder Yuluo would be so devoted to loving you. Not only her, but even I am a little tempted to marry you!”

It’s normal for an elder sister to make such jokes with her brother-in-law.

However, Yue Yuluo’s eyes brightened, and she eagerly said, “Sister, is it true?

Then how about we both marry our husband together?”
