A Sudden Departure (Happy National Day Holiday, everyone! Please support with tips!)

The advertisement on the sign was very mysterious and high-class.

Nie Yugang, driven by curiosity, walked into the funeral company. Upon entering, he found the company wasn't large, only a few dozen square meters.

The furnishings inside were rather old, and the environment wasn't as grand as he had imagined. Instead, it felt somewhat dilapidated. He began to doubt if the advertisement on the sign outside was just a deceptive claim.

Could they really create a mysterious and terrifying past for one's funeral?

Nie Yugang fell silent for a moment. The place didn't look very reliable, and he was about to turn and leave.

Just as his cane tapped the ground for his first step, Su Chen happened to walk out of the company. He saw the elderly gentleman entering.

Su Chen was somewhat surprised and excited. He quickly asked, "Sir, what service do you need?"

As he spoke, he didn't hesitate.

He warmly took the old man's hand and helped him to a nearby sofa, then proceeded to pour tea and offer water!

Nie Yugang had intended to leave, but Su Chen's enthusiasm stunned him. He could only repeatedly thank him. Before he could react further, Su Chen produced a price list.

He handed it over directly.

It contained detailed information about the company's various services and their prices.

Su Chen began to introduce it:

"Sir, you can first take a look at our company's professional service items. We have a wide variety, affordable prices, and we guarantee your satisfaction!"

Nie Yugang's gaze remained fixed on the company's exterior. He felt this company might not be very reliable, especially with such simple and somewhat run-down decor. He doubted:

Was this company truly dependable?

Sensing Nie Yugang's gaze, Su Chen quickly added:

"Sir, don't mind our company's simplicity. Our service is absolutely professional, special, and mysterious!"

He then pointed to the price list in Nie Yugang's hand and continued his introduction:

"Sir, you can look at this service package: If you are willing to pay me ten thousand yuan, I will arrange for a black Maybach and a hundred men in black to appear at your funeral! An elder, with a face full of vicissitudes and wearing a Zhongshan suit, will descend from the car, bow deeply towards your tombstone, lay a bouquet of flowers, and then solemnly depart."

Listening to Su Chen's introduction.

Nie Yugang's curiosity was piqued. Following Su Chen's gesture, he looked at the price list and was immediately somewhat shocked!

Funerals could now offer such services?

The services listed were indeed impressive, ranging from a minimum of ninety-nine yuan to hundreds of millions. There were packages for virtually every price point!

Having accumulated wealth over the years, Nie Yugang had a decent amount of money. Furthermore, his child was already successful in their career and rarely asked him for money, so his savings were sufficient. Even purchasing a service package worth 100,000 yuan would be within his acceptable range. However, if he only desired a sense of mystery, a service costing ten thousand yuan would be enough to satisfy him. Thinking about how his child had been clamoring to find their birth parents these days, he felt that when he eventually passed, there should be some element of mystery. His funeral shouldn't be just ordinary. After all, he had lived a low-key life for decades and raised his child. Now, as he was leaving, He wanted to leave a more significant impression, so that his child or descendants would remember that he once existed in this world!

Seeing the various services on the price list, this thought became even stronger in his heart.

Moreover, Su Chen's service attitude was genuinely good, which also touched him.

If his funeral could truly be conducted to the specifications of the ten-thousand-yuan service, upon careful consideration, it was something that stirred a desire within him.

Seeing Nie Yugang's hesitant expression, Su Chen quickly added:

"If you don't believe us, we can also sign a contract!"

"Haha, signing a contract spoils the fun. Here, young man, I'll transfer the money to you!"

Nie Yugang chuckled, took out his phone, and no longer harbored any doubts. He transferred ten thousand yuan to Su Chen via QR code.

Seeing the text message on his phone confirming the receipt of ten thousand yuan, Su Chen smiled. It was indeed easier to close a deal with walk-in customers!

He quickly handed over an information form:

"Please fill in your information, as well as the location for the funeral!"

Nie Yugang picked up the pen and, with a few hasty strokes, completed the form. With each movement, the bell on his wrist emitted a clear and pleasant sound.

This was the first order Su Chen had successfully closed since opening his business, without the system even prompting for customer information.

The entire process was exceptionally smooth.

After Nie Yugang put down the pen.

The third order was closed!

Su Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't easy to successfully complete a ten-thousand-yuan transaction.

If this order could be rated as perfect!

The hundredfold bonus would be incredibly satisfying, turning ten thousand into a million!

"We wish you a pleasant experience with our service!"

After escorting Nie Yugang out of the shop with a respectful expression, Su Chen returned to the shop and was about to prepare Nie Yugang's information when the landlady's call came in proactively. He casually answered it.

A seductive voice came from the phone:

"Hey, you brat, where have you been busy for the past two days? The shop hasn't even been open!"

"My dear sister, I'm busy earning your rent!"

Su Chen replied casually.

He hadn't expected the landlady to be so attentive to his little shop.

If Su Chen had focused his attention on her, he might not have needed to work hard for the rest of his life, but that wasn't Su Chen's style.

The landlady chuckled twice and continued, "Heh, business seems good. I wonder if I'll have the honor of being invited by you to Pingzhuang Public Cemetery?"

"Pingzhuang Public Cemetery?"

Hearing this, Su Chen's movements faltered. Wasn't that where Chu Guozhong was buried?

Meanwhile, Nie Yugang, after leaving Su's Funeral Company, didn't rush back.

Instead, he leaned on his cane and headed to a certain place.

Qingyang Development Zone. This area used to be a large, derelict state-owned factory, but it had since been invested in and rebuilt. Office buildings rose from the ground one after another.

Tall buildings stood here, and the roads weaving around them were wide and accessible.

Nie Yugang sat on a bench by the roadside, his cloudy eyes gazing around, feeling a moment of confusion and desolation.

The phantom of a factory gradually appeared before his eyes; the sound of machinery running was so familiar~

Back then, the place where he was sitting was still a patch of overgrown weeds.

One night, on his way home from overtime, he passed by this patch of weeds and heard faint baby cries. The night was very dark, and the moonlight was cold. The eerie baby cries in the wasteland almost scared his soul away.

It was a critical period for promoting the downfall of "cow-demon snakes and gods," and the theory of "ghost gods" was definitely not to be believed.

He mustered up his courage and followed the sound. There, a child was abandoned on the grassy ground.

The child was tiny, crying with difficulty, and it broke his heart.

He ended up taking the child home in a daze.

In the blink of an eye, over twenty years had passed in a flash.

He recalled it all as if it had happened yesterday.

However, as one tall building after another sprang up, and wide streets were laid out, this street he had walked for decades was no longer the same as it once was.
