The marriage was canceled and the concubinage documents were returned. Ling Chu was in a good mood after settling a matter on his mind.
From now on, she can concentrate on making money, accumulating merit, and prolonging her life.
It's not a problem to just go to the streets and set up stalls every day. It's fine when it's sunny, but when it's windy or rainy, you can't do anything.
Ling Chu plans to buy a shop.
I asked the dental shop and found out that I was lucky. There happened to be a tea shop owner who was old and wanted to sell the tea shop and return to his hometown to spend his old age.
Ling Chu went to see the shop with Ya Xing and was quite satisfied with the shop.
Although the location of the shop is not on Yu Street, it is not far away. It is on West Street, three streets away.
Although the area of the shop is not as large as those on Imperial Street, the upper and lower floors are enough.
The location is pretty good and the price is fair. It didn't take long for Ling Chu to buy the shop.
After completing the transfer procedures, you still need to find a craftsman to decorate the inside of the shop.
Ling Chu's house had no one in charge, so she simply left it to the guards to deal with the craftsmen.
The guard smiled bitterly in his heart. He was originally Ning Chuyi's secret guard, but because he showed his face in front of others, he was sent to guard Miss Ling.
That's all. I didn't expect that one day he would be sent by Miss Ling to run errands for her.
Although he cursed a few times in his heart, the guard did not dare to show it on his face. Thinking of the hammer that used to destroy the flower picker, his lower body still feels chilly.
Lingchu had no idea about the guard's inner slander. She ordered the guard to find the craftsman, and she was quite satisfied when she saw his respectful and enthusiastic attitude.
While the shop was still being renovated, Ling Chu had been busy drawing talismans these past few days.
Since you open a shop, you must have something to sell.
The first floor of the shop mainly sells some talismans.
Ling Chu painted a lot of peace talismans, partial wealth talismans, peach blossom talisman for promoting wealth, career talisman, Wenchang talisman, fetal protection talisman, etc.
These talismans are sold to living people.
There are also some magic weapons that have been illuminated, but they are not many in number. Her energy is limited, so she has made few. She can only make more slowly when she has time later.
Of course there are people who sell them to the dead, but not many.
I am not in good health and my energy is limited. I will slowly add more in the future.
In addition to the private room where she rested on the second floor, Ling Chu also reserved a room mainly for receiving the souls of the dead.
That's right, in addition to doing business for living people, we also do business for dead people.
In addition to saving money and using good medicine to support her little life, she also has to help those puppet souls fulfill their wishes and use the exchanged merit to extend her life.
So the business of the dead is also indispensable.
The shop has been decorated and a lot of talismans have been prepared.
What troubles Ling Chu is that he still lacks shopkeepers and assistants.
The things sold in her shop are different from ordinary shops, and the customers are also quite special. After all, she is also in the ghost business.
So the shopkeepers and clerks we are looking for are not only courageous, but also have a strong character so that they will not be affected by those puppet spirits.
Lingchu had been tired for a few days. After dinner, she saw that it was still early in the sky, so she simply sent the talisman paper to the shop first to see if the decoration was satisfactory.
Setting up a household on your own means you are free. You don't have to worry about anyone being dissatisfied and trying to find fault with her when you go out at this time.
Seeing that she was about to go out, the two guards followed her.
One followed on horseback, and the other drove Ling Chu.
When I got to the shop, I looked around upstairs and downstairs, and I was quite satisfied.
The talisman he brought was placed in the display cabinet on the first floor, and Ling Chu was ready to go back.
There is a curfew at night, and you can't just hang out and play outside at night like in modern times. As soon as she left the shop, she saw a young man in his twenties sitting against the outer wall of her shop, holding a bun in his hand and looking at the ghosts opposite him with a look of bitterness and hatred.
“Hey, can you please stop following me? All my food has been used by you. I don't even remember how long it has been since I tasted the aroma of food.”
There were seven or eight ghosts standing opposite the young man.
The gray-shirted old man looked like a scoundrel, "Although your things have been used by us, they are still intact, and there is not even a mouthful missing, but they have lost their taste."
Another ink-shirted figure followed, "That's right, what's the big deal if there's no taste? It can still fill your stomach and you won't be hungry."
“Young man, you are the only one in the world who can see us. If we don't follow you, who else can we follow?”
"Anyway, you are alone and don't even have anyone to talk to. With us by your side, you won't be alone. How pitiful it is to be alone."
Listening to the chatter of these puppet souls, the young man was not happy, but instead became more distressed.
Standing at the door, listening to their conversation, Ling Chu looked surprised.
This man is just an ordinary person, but he actually has yin and yang eyes, can see ghosts, and can coexist peacefully with them.
She was really surprised to see that this young man didn't seem to be affected by the puppet souls. His body was clean and not contaminated with their yin energy.
Lingchu couldn't help but walk over.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the young man turned his head and looked over.
Seeing that it was a girl, the other person hurriedly withdrew his gaze and seemed to be planning to get up and leave.
Lingchu stood in front of him and asked curiously, "Aren't you afraid of them?"
The young man was startled, and when he saw Ling Chu looking at the puppet souls, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Girl...girl, you...can you see them?"
Perhaps he was so surprised that the young man stuttered when he spoke.
Without waiting for Ling Chu to speak, he waved to her again, "Girl, please leave quickly. Don't be contaminated by their breath. It's not good for your health."
He then said to those puppet souls, "The little girl is weak, unlike me who is strong and not afraid of you, so don't follow her."
Those puppet souls didn't expect that Ling Chu could see them, and they were looking at her curiously.
But they didn't dare to come over, not because of the young man's words.
But they seemed to be vaguely afraid of the girl in front of them.
This young man seems to be quite kind.
Ling Chu couldn't help but look at him a few more times, "They have been following you, what do they want to do?"
The young man was surprised to see her so calm, but he still said honestly, "They didn't want to do anything, just because I can see them, so they always like to talk to me."
“Aren't you afraid of puppet souls?”
The young man shook his head, "Don't be afraid, I have been able to see their existence since I was a child." It was these puppet spirits who always liked to talk to him and kept him from being clean.
Also, he always enjoys his food, which makes everything he eats tasteless.
“Are you a foreigner? Are you coming to the capital to visit relatives or to find work?”
The young man frowned and said, "I don't have anyone at home anymore, so I plan to come to the capital to have a try. I also thought that there is so much righteousness at the foot of the imperial city, so they don't dare to follow me anymore."
He was annoyed by these ghosts, and it was too uncomfortable to eat without being able to taste anything.
Originally I thought that with the emperor in the imperial city, the ghost would be afraid. If they all left, he would be able to eat normally in the future.
Unexpectedly, when he arrived in the capital, those puppet souls were not affected and continued to follow him.
