Chapter Nine: Contract Specter, Innkeeper New Employee

gnawing on a drumstick, and asked, "Yang Fan, how is the fried drumstick made by Grandma Xu"Yang Fan was busy gnawing on a drumstick and couldn't speak. She gave Old Lady Xu a thumbs-up to show her a...Yang Fan walked from the living room to the storeroom. The moment she stepped inside, the lights in the room came on brightly, and she saw the scene inside clearly.

During the day, when you look at it, the shelves that were originally empty are now filled with all kinds of parcels.

Meanwhile, a computer by the door beeped, "Huangquan Stationmaster - Yang Fan has come online. The station gate is open. Please begin your work as soon as possible."

With a click, the roller door lock opened and the roller door slowly rose.

Yang Fan: ... Quite automated.

Passing through shelves piled high with packages, she walked to the computer.

The computer had already been turned on, and on the screen were the six large characters "Huangquan Station System."

In the top left corner is her name and photo, as well as her position: Huang Quan Stationmaster.

There is also a statistic below, with the number of shipments and the number 0 behind it, as well as the working time.

The numbers on top kept counting up to a minute, and they were still bouncing.

Next to it, it's like a mailbox page, with each line showing the sender and recipient information, and "Unclaimed" at the end.

The screen is full of unclaimed items, and you even have to flip through pages.

The roller door swung wide open, and two ghosts, one big and one small, stood at the entrance.

The child ghost is named Jian Xiangdi, and the female ghost is named Liang Zishu. The former was ten years old and died in a car accident, while the latter was twenty-five years old and died from overwork due to exploitation by a heartless boss.

According to the two ghosts, Huangquan Station has existed for a very long time. The parcels inside are things that their living relatives in the human world burned for them and things they bought with their underworld currency on the internet.

The station used to be located elsewhere, but it was moved to this Upper Village a few years ago.

Before the original owner's uncle, Yang Xiwen, was the stationmaster of Huangquan Station. He was a kind person, but his personality was too soft and he was often bullied by the four Heavenly Kings, evil spirits.

Although the underworld has regulations that prevent evil spirits from harming people at waystations, and ghosts cannot enter human dwellings.

But those ghosts always played pranks. Last year, Sun Xiwen went to town one evening and came back late.

Those evil spirits played tricks on the road, causing Sun Xiwen to fall into a dry river. When villagers found him the next day, he was already dead.

All the vegetables in the village are stolen by ghosts. Because of Huangquan Station, there is spiritual energy everywhere in the village, and the vegetables and fruits that grow from the ground are all infused with spiritual energy.

So the ghosts couldn't resist such temptation and came at night to steal vegetables or fruit from the field.

"Speaking of this, Jian Xiangdi shyly lowered her head, "...I also ate some."

Liang Zi Shu: "I also..."

It's no wonder they couldn't resist temptation. After all, even spiritual items cost spirit money in the underworld, and they're very expensive! Here in this village, things can be enjoyed without spending spirit money. Which ghost could possibly resist that

And in order to steal food from the mortal realm, they diligently save their spirit money to buy things. Ghosts without spirit money to buy things can only wait for their relatives in the human world to burn offerings for them and send them pick-up information before they can leave the underworld.

"So you guys constantly use the excuse of picking up deliveries to steal other people's hard-earned vegetables," Yang Fan said, crossing his arms and narrowing his eyes at the two ghosts menacingly, "And yet you say you're working hard yourselves."

The two ghosts bowed their heads, too ashamed to speak.

Two ghosts stood at the door, waiting for Yang Fan to get them their delivery.

She wouldn't give them the package so easily.

Liang Zishu passed the thing in his hand, similar to an ID card, over. "Trouble... Master, please help me take this express delivery."

They also told her that the delivery ghost had to provide identification to pick it up.

Yang Fan didn't accept the offer but instead brought up their issue of stealing vegetables again, "Since you destroyed someone's labor results, then give them back the vegetable seeds."

Liang Zhishu and Jian Xiangdi, the two ghosts, looked at each other and then turned to Yang Fan, asking in unison, "How do we plant it back"

Yang Fan nodded and said, "You guys go back first and call the ghost who stole the vegetables back. I'll come later and tell you how to plant them back."

"But if we go back now, we won't be able to come back today," Liang Xiangdi said, "We can only come back in five days."

A ghost can come out of the underworld once by using a delivery information, but if it fails to retrieve the package on that day, it can only come again after five days.

This rule is set to avoid overcrowding at the station.

Is that so...

Yang Fan touched his chin and carefully looked at the two ghosts, then glanced at the full shelves behind them.

Suddenly, an idea popped into my head. These two ghosts are pure and gentle, they'd be perfect as her ghost servants.

She remained silent, which made the two ghosts even more uneasy.

Liang Zishu thought to himself, "This master wouldn't be treating us as fertilizer for his garden, would he"

No, please!

Yang Fan turned his head to look at the two ghosts. At a speed that the two ghosts hadn't reacted to, he drew a void talisman in the air. The golden talisman paper enveloped one person and the two ghosts.

Two ghostly heads appeared with a boat sail-shaped mark, but it disappeared quickly.

The Ghost Servant Contract has been successfully concluded.

Although the two ghosts were experiencing this for the first time, they could feel the changes in their bodies.

They were being dragged and suppressed by a powerful force, and their appearance changed from terrifying demonic figures back to their former selves.

They can't see the changes on their own face, but they can see the changes in others.

Liang Zishou pointed at himself blankly and asked Yang Fan, "Master, what are we doing"

Yang Fan: "Oh, it's with you guys that I made a contract. You guys will be my ghost slaves from now on."

Liang Zi Shu: "Ghost slave... What are you trying to do"

Yang Fan pointed to the delivery package beside him. "Work for me."

Liang Zi Shu's eyes went black. As a human, he had to be forced to work; even as a ghost, he was still forced to work.

This damn world!

At this moment, the computer emitted two beeps. Yang Fan lowered her head and saw that beneath her information box on the desktop, there were now two new pieces of information about people.

The people separated are Liang Zishu and Jian Guangdi, their job title behind them is: Deliveryman.

Yang Fan twitched the corners of his lips, it seemed this post station also acknowledged the two employees she had recruited.

Without her consent, they made her the head of this place. And she followed suit, bringing in their own people to work here.

Jian Xiangdi was a little excited, "Then can we go out from the underworld every day!"

Yang Fan nodded. "From now on, the work here will be up to you."

Jian Xiangdi was ecstatic, it was wonderful! He could now travel freely between the underworld and the mortal realm every day!

Even though Liang Zishu had been feeling down about having to work again, this news lifted his spirits.

After all, the mortal world is far more interesting than the underworld.

What if there's still a chance to go back and visit one day!

Liang Zi Shu restrained her excitement and asked cautiously, "Stationmaster, how much is our monthly salary"

"That's a good question, I want to know too."

Nobody knows how much the salary is per month here.was about to get up and ask the other person, but he saw Yang Fan drawing something in the air with his hand. Immediately after, he felt a warm wind blowing towards him.In an instant, the scene before...
