Yin-Yang Express: Even Ghost Officials Have to Work for Me

Yun Shu was once the future leader of the Three Purities Palace. She opened her eyes and found herself transmigrated five hundred years into the future, into the body of an overworked office drone with nothing but bad luck. From the start, it was hell: her cheating ex and his mistress publicly accused her of being the other woman, she was buried in debt, and her landlord was pounding on the door demanding rent! Yun Shu: The city is full of traps. I want to go back to the countryside! When she heard that an inheritance awaited her back home, she didn’t hesitate. She packed her bags and set off for the village, ready to lie flat and enjoy life as a wealthy idler. But when she saw the overgrown ruins of a village, its walls crumbling, and the empty shop with a sign that read “Yin-Yang Express Station,” Yun Shu’s alarm bells started ringing. Crash! The long-silent Yin-Yang Express Station finally had a new stationmaster! The souls of the underworld spread the word: The new stationmaster had incredible powers! She could not only collect packages from the world of the living, but also send parcels from the underworld back to the living! Best of all, the station was hiring and provided meals, and its spirit-filled immortal fruits were free to eat! The souls, overjoyed: Charge! We have to go for it! Who’d pass up benefits like these? But... The souls, horrified: Wait! Why do we have to go plant rice seedlings just to collect a package?! What happened to the free immortal fruit? And why are you charging us merit points?! This place is a rip-off! We want to file a complaint! The new stationmaster, Yun, held a crackling Thunder Talisman in one hand and a lightning-wreathed Thunderwood baton in the other. She smiled like a breath of spring, though murder was in her eyes. “Oh? So you all want to... file a complaint?” The souls, instantly meek: N-no! You must have misheard, Stationmaster! We love working! We’re happy to pay! A five-star review, right? Right away! (They tearfully tapped five stars.) From debt-ridden office drone to the domineering stationmaster of a Yin-Yang post station, Yun Shu had this to say: Going back to the village to farm? That’s thinking too small! This leader plans to catch ghosts and farm, and make a fortune in both worlds!
