I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 754 Plan for the Year of Gengshen

"Isn't this Boss Lin? What a rare guest, a truly rare guest!"

There are people in the newly built Ghost Street, but not many.

After all, there are only a few usable shops on this ghost street right now.

Moreover, hotels like Mr. Liu's are not very popular here and don't have much business.

Most of the time, Mr. Liu runs his shop in the new district outside, providing accommodation for ordinary people.

The middle-aged woman did not go to wash the clothes again.

There is no ghost lake here. If you want to wash clothes, you have to go to the former Zhongzhou City area.

no way.

Because her clothes are ghost clothes, they need to be cleaned regularly with the Ghost Lake to suppress the resurgence of the ghost clothes.

Moreover, she couldn't make ghost clothes; she hadn't learned the technique, so she couldn't open a shop.

The Faceless Man, on the other hand, had opened a small shop on the side of the road, selling a limited selection of masks.

But the owner here wasn't him, but another middle-aged man who was about forty years old.

Besides that, there was another paper craft shop, where a man in his forties, almost fifty, was also working.

These two shops are next to each other.

When Lin Yuan arrived, the two of them seemed to have received prior notice and stood at the door to greet him.

Whether it was the owner of the paper offering shop or the owner of the mask shop, they all had bright smiles on their faces, showing no trace of the demeanor of powerful ghost tamers; they were simply enthusiastic businessmen.

"Sorry, sorry, I've been quite busy at the shop. I also took on a big order recently, so I haven't had much time to come. By the way, have you been okay lately?" Lin Yuan asked warmly.

Judging from his appearance, he's definitely a high-ranking leader who's come to offer his condolences.

Neither of the two bosses, born in the year of Gengshen, noticed anything amiss.

After all, they still carried the time-space maintenance device they had exchanged from the Peace Hotel.

Of course, it can also be seen as something simpler:

Temporary residence permit!
That's right, it's a temporary residence permit!

Since we were able to stay at the Peace Hotel, we should naturally be indebted to them.

Although business wasn't great in this era, it was still necessary to make sacrifices to help the younger generation and maintain the heritage of Taiping Ancient Town and Ghost Street.

And so, with everyone's consent, the conversation went very well.

The group arrived together at the branch store located in Ghost Street.

Mr. Liu, who was in charge here, warmly greeted us, saying, "Mr. Lin, these are the branch's accounts for this period of time."

"No need, I trust you."

Lin Yuan waved his hand, saying he wasn't there to check the accounts.

With the Seed of White Mist present, he had no worries that He Yin'er would become a rat in his shop.

This natural generosity deeply moved He Yin'er.

Lin Yuan gestured for the two business owners, both born in the Year of the Monkey, to sit down and then inquired about another matter, "Why haven't any other business owners come to open shops here? Is there some difficulty? You should be able to afford the price of the time-space maintenance device, right?"

Fifty dollars to buy your life, plus three dollars per hour.

Such a price is very expensive for ordinary people, but it shouldn't be a big problem for Taiping Ancient Town, which has a long history.

During the last virtual game, He Yin'er visited Taiping Ancient Town in the year of Gengshen. With the help of the White Mist Seed and the White Mist Ghost Domain, Lin Yuan basically figured out the situation of Taiping Ancient Town.

The owners who can open shops here are, if not incredibly wealthy, certainly very rich.

The price of a "temporary residence permit" should not be an obstacle at all.

Unless, of course, they have other concerns.

"To be honest, Mr. Lin, we did come here to help the younger generation, but we also needed to run our own business in our time, and that era wasn't as peaceful as we imagined." The owner of the Gengshen Year Paper Craft Shop looked helpless.

In the Year of Gengshen, the mask stall owner also nodded in tacit agreement.

As the two talked, Lin Yuan learned more about the situation in Taiping Ancient Town in the year of Gengshen.

Taiping Ancient Town wasn't ancient back then, so it was called Taiping Town.

The town's heritage dates back to the Republican era.

It was the secluded place established by the first generation of spirit summoners, along with several like-minded individuals.

These individuals were also the original core figures of Ghost Street.

Later, people came here to escape the world, bringing with them relatives and friends of ordinary people, forming Taiping Town with Ghost Street as its core and ordinary people's residences as its outer wings.

You can tell their expectations for this place just by its name.

However, with so many people, it became impossible to keep it a secret.

In addition, many ghost tamers, in order to make a living, also needed to obtain some resources suitable for themselves, so they started to set up stalls and buy and sell goods.

Over time, this led to the formation of Ghost Street, a market-like area that attracted many ghost tamers to trade goods.

But a big tree attracts the wind.

Although the shop owners in Ghost Street were quite powerful, they weren't exactly top-tier in that era.

Apart from the first generation of spirit summoners, the others, taken individually, could only drift along with the tide in that era.

Moreover, in that era.

To survive, fighting is a necessity; basically, every Ghost Tamer who grows up has their own enemies.

This resulted in Ghost Street having a large number of enemies from its very beginning.

These people have attacked Ghost Street more than once, causing considerable damage.

Fortunately, everyone was very united, and there were still people who could summon spirits, so Ghost Street was preserved. However, not all the enemies were killed, and many people survived.

This resulted in the fact that even in the Year of Gengshen, Ghost Street was fraught with danger and far from being as peaceful as it appeared on the surface.

Being able to spare two people to stay in the modern world is already the best they can do.

“I see. But we’re all in business, there’s no need for fighting. Here’s what I’m planning to do: in a couple of days I’m going back to the Gengshen year to see if I can develop the branch stores from that era. I’ll need your help then. In return, I can also find an opportunity to gather those who have conflicts with you all together for a good talk. What do you think?” Lin Yuan said, revealing his idea.

But is it just a contradiction?

They are clearly mortal enemies, and some have been enemies for at least one generation, while others have been enemies for two or three generations. It's not something that can be easily resolved.

Since Lin Yuan had already said so, and considering his terrifying strength, the two bosses from the Gengshen year did not refuse, but said they needed to go back and discuss it.

"That's natural. Let's decide on this for now. We'll discuss the specifics in a couple of days."

After staying in the shop for a while, Lin Yuan got up and left, taking He Yin'er and Guo Fan with him.

On the way back, he said again, "Xiao Guo, come over with Xiao Zhang tomorrow, and we'll talk about the blind date in the Year of Gengshen."
