"Help... Help..."
The haunting cries from the fourth floor woke the neighbors in the building.
Most of the residents upstairs and downstairs turned on their lights.
Inside the ho of the screaming tenant.
A middle-aged woman walked into the living room, approaching Wang Yan, who was terrified and disheveled.
She asked worriedly, "Yanyan, what’s wrong? Yanyan, what’s going on with you?"
"There’s a ghost! A ghost!" Wang Yan clutched the woman’s hand, trembling all over.
"Where’s the ghost? Don’t talk nonsense!" The woman spoke disapprovingly.
"Mom! There really is a ghost, in my room!"
Recalling the scene earlier, Wang Yan’s face turned even paler.
Those she once bullied, those she stepped on to climb up, all ca to settle scores with her.
They said they were living miserably and wanted her to suffer along with them, countless bloody hands tearing at her.
The grueso images appeared in her mind whenever she closed her eyes.
Upon hearing this, Wang Yan’s mother let go of her daughter’s hand and entered Wang Yan’s room.
Inside, everything was clean and tidy, without a trace of anything unusual.
She sighed softly and returned to the living room, only to find Wang Yan had sohow fainted.
When she went to check the room, Wang Yan saw once more those n and won, whom she had bullied in the past, coming to settle their scores, reaching out with bloody hands to tear at her, scaring her until she fainted.
Downstairs, a petite figure slowly left, unnoticed by anyone as she had arrived.
...
Jiulan Hall opened and made a big profit.
The next day, Gu Jin ca to the store to reconcile accounts with Liang Xia, discovering that the sale of dicinal herbs alone had brought in nearly seven hundred thousand.
There were only four ginsengs left on the second floor, and the rest were all sold.
Also sold were one piece of Lingzhi and several of Polygonum multiflorum, Gastrodia, Cordyceps, and more.
Business was better than Gu Jin imagined, but she knew it was due to clients brought by Qiu Qianghai and others, an unintended fortune.
Additionally, there were the gifts brought yesterday.
The largest contributions were from the Jiang Family, Yu Family, and Qiu Family, with other people giving generous gifts as well.
In total, it added up to nearly a hundred thousand.
On this day alone, the earnings were close to eight hundred thousand.
Ultimately, the connections made were different; in the past life, during the years back in the Zhen Family, she had never seen so much money.
Gu Jin promised Liang Xia a one percent commission, finally giving him over six thousand.
Seeing the money, Liang Xia’s eyes filled with excitent; he had never earned so much in the years he worked.
In the village, he nearly beca disabled, and his family couldn’t do anything until Gu Jin healed his legs.
Now she has given him such a good job, making him unable to express his gratitude in words, repeatedly promising to manage Jiulan Hall well for her.
Gu Jin reassured him with a smile, and then gave each of the two store employees a big red envelope, containing two hundred each.
Afterward, the managent of Jiulan Hall was entirely entrusted to Liang Xia.
As for the herbs sold on the second floor, Gu Jin replaced them and listed the herbs needed by Jiulan Hall, posting outside the store for high-priced purchases.
After returning ho, Gu Jin calculated the money on hand, roughly a million.
With money in hand, her thoughts started to move.
She contacted the agent who had previously shown her properties and purchased twenty properties in the Jiangjing Mountain District, not all within Gu Jin’s residential area.
The purchased properties varied from new to old; she was eyeing their future value.
