Mysterious Resurrection: The Peddler

Chapter 54: Loopholes in the transaction

Now that the business trip is over, Cao Yang no longer needs to hide his identity. Although his satellite phone is not with him, it does not affect his ability to use his authority as the person in charge.

"You are the intimacy that I have never had and cannot capture, but I have your kiss, your soul and your heart~"

The cell phone rang. It was a song that Cao Yang liked very much in his previous life. Fortunately, the mysteriously revived world still existed.

"Hello Cao Yang, I am your exclusive operator Han Yu, and I am happy to serve you again."

"Then I think you should be happy to help me look up the information of a person. His name is Yan Li, and he is from Dachang City. I have some personal matters to deal with him."

Cao Yang said with a smile.

"Okay, it will take about five minutes to get the message to your phone."

"That's no problem. Just an address will do. I have some personal business to deal with him."

Five minutes later, Cao Yang received all the information about Yan Li, including his address: Emerald Villa District.

Cao Yang said to Yan Li's wife with a smile. Yan Li's wife greeted Cao Yang warmly. She didn't expect Cao Yang to look so young, but he had a big business and was also friends with her husband. This was his blessing.

"Do you know who that ghost is? That's Lao Luo, Lao Luo! Do you know who Lao Luo is? Boss, I'm just a bunch of rotten fish and shrimp in front of Lao Luo, wuwuwu~"

Although the knocking ghost was not imprisoned, thanks to Cao Yang's ghost-luring plan, the evil ghost did not cause more serious consequences, which was considered a great achievement.

Otsu City, Binhai Airport, as soon as Cao Yang landed, he received a call from Boss Liu.

"It's time to go back. I've wasted a week and haven't made any progress in my strength. This time I go back, I should also defeat He Tianxiong. The Stepping Human Ghost can help me achieve a balance between the upper, middle and lower parties. It's a rare and good puzzle piece."

"Excuse me, I'm here to discuss business with Yan Li. I have a big project on hand, and I feel he would be a good partner."

"Thank you, little brother, for taking care of our Lao Yan. If you need any help in the future, just let me know."

As soon as the call was connected, Boss Liu's miserable crying voice was heard, but this was not the end.

On the plane, Cao Yang received a message one day about the ghost that appeared in Dachang No. 7 Middle School. Based on the information provided by Yang Jian, the headquarters established an incident file, code-named "Ghost Knocking on the Door", with a hazard level of A.

After leaving the Jade Community, Cao Yang's mission in Dachang City was completely completed.

"Yan Li has invested all his fortune in this villa."

Cao Yang hailed a taxi and headed for the Feicui Community. However, his luck was not very good. Yan Li was not at home. No one knew where he had gone. Only his wife and children were at home.

"Since Yan Li is not at home, I won't bother you anymore. This is my phone number. Please ask him to call me when he comes back. He is the only one who can do this business for me."

"Young man, you have no moral principles. You have screwed me, your boss, so badly."

As he spoke, Boss Liu's tone even began to tear up. Cao Yang imagined an old man crying and couldn't help feeling a chill.

"Lao Luo is my dearest relative and friend, we are like brothers."

"Senior, I really don't know the origin of that ghost, and didn't you promise me that whether it is a dragon or a tiger, it will have to lie cross-legged when it arrives at your inn?" Cao Yang also put on an aggrieved tone and began to negotiate with Boss Liu.

"I don't care. You have to pay more, or I'll let it go. My shabby temple can't accommodate a big Buddha like Lao Luo."

"How much?"

"Ten million, or seven yuan of ghost money will do. Last time I saw that you must know about ghost money."

"Then let's make 10 million. I'm really sorry to bother you this time, Senior."

"It's not a problem, it's not a problem. As long as the money is in place, even if Lao Zhang comes, I will arrange for him to have a good rest in the inn."

After hearing this, Cao Yang couldn't help but twitch his lips. This Boss Liu is simply an old naughty boy who brags without even thinking. If Zhang Dong really comes, he and his inn might not be able to exist anymore.

But no matter what, this time it was really thanks to Boss Liu. As Taiping Inn is a haunted place, it is not difficult to trap the Knocking Ghost for a period of time. After all, the killing efficiency of the Knocking Ghost is so terrifying that it is almost comparable to some S-level ghosts.

In Beichen Building, Cao Yang returned to his office which he had been away from for a long time. There were two golden containers placed there.

"Before finding He Tianxiong, we must first complete the transaction with the Ghost Trader, and we need to find a way to take the initiative in the transaction."

Cao Yang sat in his swivel office chair, sliding around in the huge office.

"It would be great if we could fix the bug of the ghost peddler, but it's too difficult to do that. Seeking the skin of a ghost is an unequal transaction, and it's mostly forced..."

"The essence of the ghost peddler is a curse, and the core of the curse is a transaction. The two parties in the transaction are me and the peddler, and the goods to be received are evil spirits. The evil spirits will pay for the goods."

"Wait, since Cao Yang in the original novel was chosen as collateral by the peddler because of his failed delivery, then conversely, why can't the peddler's own supernatural powers be used as a form of payment for his goods? In other words, the peddler and I should both be objects that can be traded!"

Thinking of this, Cao Yang's breathing became rapid. He seemed to have discovered a loophole in the ghost peddler's transaction. No, it was not a loophole. The transaction was mutual. Since Cao Yang could be purchased as a commodity, the peddler should be paid as payment.

"It's worth a try. Perhaps this is the meaning of the word 'stealing' mentioned in the human skin list. Then the plan to ask for the wind chime designed before can be put aside. The first payment I want should be a request, a request to 'make the ghost peddler himself a payment that can be paid.'"

At the end of his thinking, Cao Yang couldn't help but sit up from his chair and applauded his own imagination.

"As long as this first requirement can be achieved, I will have the initiative in this transaction. Even if I really can't deal with it in the end, I can still go to Dazhou City to find Zhang Dong as Qin Lao said. In the face of absolute erasure, all the cargo boxes and peddlers' poles are empty."

"Okay, now there's only one problem left. How can I actively recruit the ghost peddler? The faster the transaction is completed, the better it is for me."

"The Death Card can also be used to create a curse. Can you write the three words 'Ghost Peddler' on the Death Card? And then let it come here through this medium?"

"No, it's a bit too dangerous. If the peddler attacks me, I will have no power to fight back. The risk is too high."

"Then if I have other ideas about the goods it wants to purchase, for example, if I want to try to control the ghost armor, will the peddler appear?"

"We can give it a try. The peddler shouldn't be allowed to get his hands on what he wants. I can also stop any action on Ghost Armor at any time. There shouldn't be any risk."
