I Only Wanted to Make Some Money. How Did I End Up Saving the Underworld?

A hilarious entrepreneurial adventure spanning the realms of the living and the dead!

Wang Xiao is a third-rate screenwriter so broke he can't even pay his rent. By chance, he gains the ability to communicate with ghosts and inexplicably signs a contract between the living and the dead, becoming a "temporary worker" in the Netherworld.

He thinks he'll just help the Netherworld open a haunted house to earn some extra cash. But it turns out the Netherworld's economy is in decline, its ghost officers are losing their jobs, and even the King of Hell is fretting over the budget.

To save the Netherworld's economy, Wang Xiao has no choice but to start businesses with a bunch of ghosts: opening haunted houses, making movies, livestreaming, and developing "Netherworld Alipay"...

But things aren't that simple:

- Are rivals sending evil spirits to cause trouble?

- Does a tech company from the human world want to invest in the Netherworld?

- Is a black-robed figure secretly plotting to open the gates of the Netherworld?

- Is reform of the Netherworld civil service exam urgently needed?

- And why is a whole bunch of oddball ghosts clamoring to become internet celebrities?

Wang Xiao: "I just wanted to make some money. How did I end up becoming the Netherworld's savior?"
