Bai Yao is a businessman who moves between the underworld and the legitimate world. Every cent he earns is paid for with his life. He always thought that even if a ghost blocked his way, it couldn't keep him from making money. Then he was accidentally dragged into a terrifying world where humans and ghosts coexist, and came face-to-face with actual ghosts.
He sticks to his principles: as long as he's alive, his mouth keeps moving; ghosts may scare people, but even a scare won't make a poor man poorer. If he can't swindle people, he'll swindle ghosts. He'll fleece both humans and ghosts and carve out a bright future in this terrifying world!
So while the people around him cower and tremble, Bai Yao pops heart pills with one hand and clutches his empty wallet with the other, eagerly awaiting the arrival of his customers.
At midnight, a female ghost blocks the bathroom. Bai Yao grips his waistband. The ghost pushes aside the long hair covering her face and says shyly in a hoarse voice, "Do you have anything for a sore throat? I've been screaming to scare people a lot lately, and my throat hurts."
A wealthy family's infant spirit climbs onto his shoulder, blowing icy breath. Bai Yao breaks out in goosebumps, but his mouth keeps going. "Want your mother to love you more? Big brother can give you a discount on The Good Child's Guide. Could you get down first?"
Deep in the mountains, locked in a coffin with a headless corpse, Bai Yao clutches a cross in one hand and recites the Diamond Sutra in his heart. To the corpse beneath him, he says, "Looking for your head? Our precision brain detector will find it. Not just yours, but those of your ancestors going back eight generations, too."
Everything from the shop is top quality. Buyers must decide for themselves what's real and what's not. All sales are final.
Lately, word has spread among humans and ghosts that there's a swindler around, and opinions of him are mixed.
Bai Yao, the talk of the town, wakes in a blood-red bridal chamber. The first thing he sees is a groom with a deathly pale face. He spits out the silk cloth stuffed in his mouth and flashes a professional eight-tooth smile. "Dear customer, would you like a perfect wedding night? Want to become an undefeated legend? Our Rejuvenation Pills are on special: one jar for 888, or two jars for just 99. Don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime offer!"
The groom smiles. "Of course, my bride."
Bai Yao: Stunned... D-did I just swindle myself?!
