Even the boss, Wu Yue, was almost killed.

At this moment, Sun Lihong no longer had the confidence she had before when dealing with Yang Jian. Although she appeared calm on the surface, she felt a deep fear of this young man who was still a senior in high school.

This fear does not stem from the fact that Yang Jian is a Ghost Tamer.

Rather, they feared Yang Jian's ruthless methods.

At such a young age, he already knew how to use power to kill. Even Li Jun Zhao Jianguo, the captain of the Headquarters, couldn't protect Wu Yue.

Moreover, it wasn't him who did it, but Professor Wang Xiaoming.

At that moment, Wu Yue felt as if he had been abandoned by everyone, as if he would be letting down God if he didn't die.

Although Yang Jian eventually stopped, it is undeniable that he is indeed a very capable person.

"The transaction price will be based on the price offered by the deceased boss. We will purchase the goods from Mr. Yang. What does Mr. Yang think?" Sun Lihong's face was tense, and she seemed somewhat uneasy.

Yang Jian looked at her and said, "You seem to be feeling a little unwell?"

"No, no," Sun Lihong replied.

That's good.

Yang Jian patted the body bag on the table and said, "The things inside are different from the ghosts I usually imprison; they're a bit special. If you treat this as a regular business, I'll definitely lose money, so I think we need to discuss the price."

"Is this alright?"

If it were Sun Lihong in the past, she would definitely have rejected Yang Jian outright. Wu Yue had already overpaid by 50%, and raising the price again would have made her seem incompetent.

However, Wu Yue was severely punished and almost ruined.

Sun Lihong was afraid of offending Yang Jian and being taught a lesson herself.

"Mr. Yang, how would you like to negotiate the price?"

"No rush, let you inspect the goods first, so you won't think I'm overcharging you." Yang Jian began to open the body bags.

Ah~!

Sun Lihong turned pale with fright and immediately left her seat, backing away.

The people imprisoned inside are ghosts.

This thing is unimaginably dangerous. Opening it to inspect the goods at this time—is that really inspecting the goods? Or is it just an excuse to kill yourself?

"What's wrong? Miss Sun's reaction is a bit strong? Don't be afraid, this thing is very well-behaved and won't hurt anyone. Look, I opened it like this and nothing happened to me." Yang Jian said sincerely.

He now resembles a heartless person strolling down the street with a vicious dog.

He says dogs don't bite, but in reality, they just don't bite him.

Sun Lihong is just an ordinary person; how could she dare to get close to something so dangerous?

"If you're really scared, you can stand further away and look at it from the same distance. I'm a good person, why would I make things difficult for you over something so trivial?" Yang Jian said, pulling a head out of the body bag.

His face was deathly pale, devoid of any color, and his eyes were tightly closed, as if he had been taken from a corpse and was still very fresh.

Upon seeing the human head, Sun Lihong was initially frightened, but then shocked.

This person was Feng Quan, the first person in charge of Dachang City.

As a local of Dachang City and working for a special company, she naturally knew these important figures.

"Judging from your appearance, you should recognize me. Feng Quan, the Dachang City Manager. He disappeared a few months ago while handling the paranormal incident in Huanggang Village." Yang Jian chuckled lightly. "Two ghosts aren't exactly cheap, but what if you include the person in charge?"

"This price can't be low, can it? Miss Sun, may we start negotiating?"

Sun Lihong mustered her courage and carefully walked over.

Since Yang Jian was unharmed at such close range, this ghost should already be restrained and most likely will be fine.

But just as she approached...

Suddenly.

The deathly pale head on the table suddenly opened its eyes.

Ah~!

Sun Lihong was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground.

And it was here that the price was being negotiated.

Professor Wang Xiaoming personally watched as the company's security personnel, under the command of Ghost Tamer Li Jun, unloaded the ghost coffin from the vehicle and carefully transferred it to another transport vehicle.

He looked at the coffin without fear or apprehension, but rather with an indescribable excitement and anticipation.

"This ghost coffin will play a crucial role in our future research. If we can find a breakthrough through it, the current situation may be completely reversed."

"My research findings will completely change the world's landscape."

Wang Xiaoming was immersed in his own world, as if he couldn't wait to return to the laboratory to examine the characteristics of the ghost coffin.

"Professor Wang, although it's not appropriate for me, as an outsider, to say much, out of a sense of responsibility, I still need to remind you, this thing is extremely dangerous."

Zhao Jianguo walked over and said in a low voice, "Based on my understanding of Yang Jian, if this ghost coffin were truly valuable, he wouldn't have let it go so easily, acquiring it for only 550 million. He previously mentioned that a ghost is imprisoned inside. This might be a hidden danger. If possible, I wouldn't want Professor Wang to open the coffin for research."

"If we release that ghost again, it could cause a terrible disaster. Although I've heard about the institute's protective measures, we can't avoid the danger."

Wang Xiaoming laughed and said, "A thousand years ago, lightning from the sky could kill people and livestock. From emperors to commoners, everyone held it in awe. Who could have imagined that a thousand years later we would be able to control such power and apply it to all aspects of life?"

"I don't care what the essence of a vengeful ghost is, but since it exists, there must be a way to control it. Ghost Tamer are the most obvious result, but their utilization rate is not high. This ghost coffin, however, has the opportunity to open a breakthrough for me."

"No matter how dangerous it is, it's all worth it."

Zhao Jianguo couldn't understand the researcher's mindset, but he felt that Professor Wang was doing something very dangerous.

This makes him very uneasy about you.

Just as he was about to offer a few more reminders, Sun Lihong, the person in charge of the transaction with Yang Jian, rushed over.

"Professor Wang, there are some things I can't decide on regarding the deal with Yang Jian. I hope you can make a decision for Professor Wang." Sun Lihong's face wasn't very good; her fear hadn't faded, and she was also anxious.

Although Wang Xiaoming was only the director of a research institute, he wielded considerable power.

Wu Yue's company was mainly for the purpose of serving the research institute and maintaining the operation of the laboratory, while Wang Xiaoming made the real decisions.

"Can't you find someone else to handle company matters? I have other things to do later, I don't have time to manage the company's operations," Wang Xiaoming waved his hand impatiently.

"Professor Wang, but this matter concerns the previous Dachang City Manager, Feng Quan," Sun Lihong said.

Feng Quan?

Upon hearing this name, both Wang Xiaoming and Zhao Jianguo, who was standing next to him, were taken aback.

Yes.

How could I forget him?

Wang Xiaoming then remembered that Feng Quan was not dead; he had only been trapped in Huanggang Village. Occasionally, reports would come in, and although there had been no further news, the chances of him surviving were still quite high.

I only saw Yang Jian and Zhang Han when I left the village.

Feng Quan did not show up, so they assumed he was dead.

Is Feng Quan still alive?

Zhao Jianguo immediately came over and pressed for an answer.

"Still alive? Where is he?" Sun Lihong pointed to Yang Jian sitting under the sunshade.

Feng Quan's head was placed next to Yang Jian's table.

Neat and tidy.

Zhao Jianguo glanced at it and immediately realized, "Feng Quan has fallen into Yang Jian's hands? What, what's going on? Could it be that Yang Jian traded him with you?"

Are they selling a person in charge like a ghost?

What kind of operation is this?

Yang Jian is truly fearless, like a newborn calf that dares to do anything.

"We must buy it."

Wang Xiaoming immediately said, "Feng Quan is also very valuable. He is not only the former head of Dachang City, but also the most important person in the know about the Huanggang Village incident. This will play a crucial role in my subsequent research."

"Yang Jian does indeed have the idea of selling, but his asking price is a bit high, and I can't make the decision," Sun Lihong said.

Wang Xiaoming said, "Money is not a problem. You just need to ensure Feng Quan's safe return from the transaction. I don't care about anything else."

"By the way, how much is he asking for?"

Sun Lihong hesitated for a moment before saying, "I want them all."

"I'm not interested in the money. If he wants it all, then give it to him." Wang Xiaoming didn't react much.

"."

Hearing this, Zhao Jianguo, who was standing nearby, said, "He's extorting you. If you agree, it's like giving him the whole company. Without funding, your research institute will have a hard time surviving. Even if the higher-ups allocate funds, it won't arrive anytime soon. You don't want your research to stop, do you?"

"Moreover, the reason he quoted this price with no bottom line is not because he really wants the money; the previous 550 million was already enough for him."

"If he doesn't want money, then what does he want?" Wang Xiaoming asked.

"I think it's something more valuable, related to the Ghost Tamer."

Zhao Jianguo said, "When people are completely financially independent, they usually start to consider their own life, health, hobbies, and so on."

"He's Ghost Tamer, so of course he'd consider things related to Ghost Tamer."

Wang Xiaoming said, "Didn't we already agree to help him control the second ghost and prolong the resurrection of the vengeful spirit?"

"This is from that previous transaction, it shouldn't be included here. You should probably go and talk to him yourself," Zhao Jianguo said.

Looking at the ghost coffin already loaded onto the car, Wang Xiaoming said, "I don't have time now. I have to go back to the lab immediately. Feng Quan also needs to be taken away as soon as possible to assist my research. Here's what I'll do: Manager Sun, go to my car and get that golden box, the rectangular one, it's right next to my seat."

"Okay, okay."

Sun Lihong immediately responded and turned to leave.

In a short while, she brought out a rectangular gold box.

"What is this?" Zhao Jianguo asked, somewhat puzzled.

"The lab's latest findings haven't been officially released yet; only a very small portion has been requisitioned, and I've heard they've had good results." Wang Xiaoming walked over with the golden box in his hand.
