Chapter 9: Expanding Business

~7 min read 1,386 words

The coffin was buried, and the funeral was completed.

Lin Feng's work was finished, and the people of Chen Family Village also began to disperse gradually.

In the chaotic world, most people had already looked down on life and death, not to mention that the deceased had been buried in peace, but the living still had to struggle for three meals a day.

Lin Feng and the two bailiffs left Chen Family Village by donkey cart, and on the way, these two bailiffs became much more polite to Lin Feng.

"I really didn't expect you to be a capable person, brother; those corpses were actually made honest by you with just a knock! It's really a strange thing! A strange thing!"

The bailiff who looked like a thin bamboo pole was exceptionally enthusiastic at this time, praising Lin Feng endlessly.

"Hahaha, isn't it? This is the first time we've seen a gravedigger with such skills since we became bailiffs; brother, you hid it from us so hard!"

The other bailiff with black moles on his face was also full of enthusiasm, clearly shocked by the means Lin Feng had shown before.

"Where, it's just that my fate is hard, and those corpses didn't want to make things difficult for me."

Lin Feng shook his head and said casually; although he had some strength now, he still had to be careful.

"Don't worry, we brothers understand, this matter will definitely not be spread around casually!"

Hearing Lin Feng's words, the two bailiffs looked at each other and immediately patted their chests to guarantee.

"Uh, that's not necessary; if there are such good things in the future, you can come to me at any time. After all, I also want to earn some silver to spend; the income of a gravedigger is really too bitter."

Hearing them say this, Lin Feng felt that hiding it was not good, so he took the initiative to say to them.

"Hiss, is that really what you think?"

The two bailiffs were full of suspicion; although they believed in Lin Feng's skills, some corpses were full of danger.

"That's right! This job can earn silver and help the relatives of the deceased; my generation is duty-bound!"

Lin Feng patted his chest on the spot and guaranteed; kidding, such a good thing that could earn money and harvest skills and ghosts, he would be a fool to give it up!

"That's fine! If there are such businesses in the future, we brothers will definitely come to call you!"

Hearing Lin Feng's words, the two bailiffs looked at each other, and then smiles instantly appeared on their faces.

It seemed as if they had already seen a large amount of credit and benefits beckoning to them!

"Hehe, in that case, thank you two bailiffs!"

"Look at how polite you are; we are brothers from now on! Why divide these?"

"By the way, my name is Li Erniu, and his name is Zhang Dazhuang; just call us brothers from now on!"

"..."

Having common interests was the best way to bring people closer; the three of them soon became familiar and started calling each other brothers.

Lin Feng didn't care; although these two didn't have high status, they knew all the ins and outs of Luohe City, and he could get a lot of useful information through them.

Finally, the two bailiffs who chatted more and more enthusiastically insisted on taking Lin Feng to drink in Luohe City; Lin Feng couldn't refuse, so he simply went to Luohe City for a trip.

The entire Luohe City was definitely one of the top big cities in the southeast of the Great Xia Dynasty, and a Luohe River flowing through brought prosperous vitality to this city.

People came and went in the city, and both sides of the street were shops and vendors shouting and selling.

Lin Feng and the two bailiffs sat down in a tavern on the street, and then started drinking and eating meat, which was very happy.

Lin Feng, who possessed the Hunger-Enduring Skill, had an unusually large capacity for both alcohol and food; the two bailiffs wanted to compete with Lin Feng at first, but they were drunk by Lin Feng not long after.

"Waiter, settle the bill!"

"Alright! Guest, a total of two taels and seven qian of silver!"

"Mm, take it, just find me two taels, and exchange the remaining three qian for braised pig head meat; I want to take it away!"

"Alright, guest, please wait a moment!"

Lin Feng threw the silver he had just obtained onto the table, and then ordered the waiter.

He was willing to spend this money, especially since he had to rely on these two bailiffs to introduce business in the future; this money should be spent!

At the same time, he didn't forget that there was an Old Quezi on the graveyard side; although that old guy was shrewd, he really cared about him.

Soon, Lin Feng left the tavern with the braised pig head meat and the remaining two taels of silver. As for the two bailiffs, Lin Feng didn't need to worry; they would go back themselves after they woke up.

Walking in Luohe City, Lin Feng had a faint smile on his face; now that he had two ghosts, his strength would become even stronger in the future!

After leaving the city, Lin Feng went straight to the graveyard, and with his light-body skills, he soon returned to the gravedigger's small courtyard.

"You kid finally came back; I was still worried about whether something happened to you!"

Old Quezi in the courtyard saw Lin Feng return and immediately stepped forward to complain to him.

"What could happen? Look, this is pig head meat, the fragrance is rich, it's excellent for drinking and eating!"

Lin Feng handed the pig head meat wrapped in lotus leaves to Old Quezi, and then returned to his room by himself.

"Pig head meat, hiss, it seems you earned a lot this trip, tsk tsk, this taste, this oily shine is definitely good stuff from a big restaurant in the city..."

Old Quezi's voice reached Lin Feng's ears outside the door, but his mind was no longer on that.

The "Ghost-Planting and Ghost-Raising Scripture" in his mind turned, and the various harvests from the corpses he buried earlier emerged one after another.

"Carpenter ability? Although it's ordinary, it's not bad for making things."

"Another light-body skill, and it's a relatively advanced 'Water-Walking'; I didn't pay attention before, this corpse seems to have some background."

"Can cooking also be considered a skill? Why do I feel that the quality of this corpse is pitifully low!"

"This is 'Seven-Kill Fist', hehe, it's not bad for fighting for your life at close range."

"Pine-Crane Health-Preserving Skill, it looks like a kind of internal energy, but it doesn't have much combat power."

"Ghost bone ash production method, the leader seemed to use this method to deal with those ghost slaves at that time, good stuff!"

"..."

A total of seven skills, except for the useless cooking, were all not bad, and all he paid was some time!

Of course, the most important thing was the newly obtained Chen Xiuniang ghost!

Lin Feng turned to this page, and then with a thought, Chen Xiuniang, who was dressed in plain white, wearing ghostly makeup, and looked like she was sleeping, appeared before Lin Feng.

It had to be said that this was indeed a rare beauty; even if she turned into a ghost, one could still see her delicate face and curvy figure.

But what made people feel terrifying was that this was a real ghost!

The cold aura emitted from Chen Xiuniang ghost could definitely make people dispel all other thoughts in front of her, leaving only the most instinctive fear in their minds.

"The needle and thread in her hand is the source of her ability; let's try it now!"

Lin Feng's eyes flickered, and then he controlled her to start sewing the things in front of him; only to see the invisible needle and thread flying, and the things in the room were connected together.

What made people feel exaggerated was that these things sewn by her were like they had grown together originally! ===== CHAPTER 10 =====
