As long as there are traces, we can find our
Josh added. “That female spirit contacted the merchant and even transferred money to him.”
Lilly interjected, “No need to go through all that trouble
With a serious expression on her little face, she extended a finger and began counting the passing people “One, two, three… Whoever I point to is the one… Like grain of rice, push to the end, either it’s him or your
“That one!” Lilly pointed at a man wearing a Tai Chi uniform.
Josh and Pablo looked puzzled.
Edward rolled up his sleeves and confidently approached, “Alright, that one? Are you sure? I’ll bring him to you!”
“Hey! Stop right there, the guy in the white Tai Chi uniform up ahead
But it seemed like the man didn’t hear her, he was rushing to catch a bus.
As the bus doors were about to close, he hurriedly got on, and by the time Edward caught up, the bus already departed.
Lilly quietly watched the bus.
“Master Do you think that rich spirit could be the one that Master Ernest hired?”
Lilly’s thoughts jumped rapidly, and Pablo couldn’t keep up for a moment. He hesitated before saying ” only a slight possibility. Can you locate that person?”
Lilly nodded. Tve tracked him.”
Edward exclaimed in surprise. “You can track with ghost-catching too?”
Lilly nodded again. This time, when they boarded the bus, there was no need to search for a destion Lilly simply directed left or right, and they soon arrive at the antique market
Edward followed Lilly, expecting her to directly find dhe person, but incal, she found

Jal coughed, Um Lilly, weren’t we looking for that big belliest uncle
Lilly replied

Edward wood in bewilder
Then Polly began her lively sales pitch, attracting a crowd of onlookers. When they heard the bracelet was priced at three billion, the crowd glared at Edward and scolded him for shamelessness.
Edward was utterly bewildered.
What did he do wrong?
In the afternoon, the person they were waiting for finally appeared.
The chubby uncle was now dressed in a colorful outfit, adorned with various large gold chains, shining brightly in the crowd.
“Let’s go!”
Lilly swiftly wrapped up the tablecloth and chased after him.
Josh almost couldn’t keep up with her quick movements.
“Uncle…” Lilly chased after him, shouting at the top of her lungs.
But there were too many people, and Lilly was too small to attract attention.
Edward lifted Lilly and let her ride on his neck.
Lilly instantly elevated herself and called out in her sweet and cute voice, “Hey! Mr. Uncle in the colorful clothes up ahead, stop for a moment!”
The chubby man turned around and saw Lilly floating above the crowd.
He was startled and took a closer look, realizing it was a dark-skinned man carrying Lilly who was approaching.
The chubby man recognized Lilly and asked cautiously. “What’s going on? If you want me to return the bracelet, forget about it….
Lilly said, “Uncle, we’re not here for the bracelet. I wanted to ask you if you know that you have a ghost on you?”
The chubby man was taken aback, his face immediately turned gloomy. “You’re the one with a ghost, you’re full of ghosts.”
That statement was not entirely wrong.
Lilly nodded, “Yeah. I’m full of ghosts.”
The chubby man fell silent.
He cursed to himself, feeling puzzled, and turned away without saying a word.
A 200-pound man surprisingly moved with incredible agility and disappeared after a few quick nurs
Edward sneered, ‘Oh? Do you think you can run away from me?
He also turned around a few times and saw the colorful higure disappear into a doorway
Lilly looked up and read the big letters. “The Lazy Pingy
Josh coughed, “Lilly, it’s pronounced The Lazy Pygmy…”
Edward said, “The Lazy Pygmy is one of the largest jade markets in the country, dealing with raw stones…”
Many people who enjoy gambling on stones come here to select raw stones, have them cut on the spot, and see if their choices are good or not.
Edward led Lilly and Josh through the door. Drake didn’t come today, so Edward had to maintain his self- proclaimed image as the cool older brother.
After paying a small fee, the three of them entered. As soon as they stepped inside, they found that it was just as lively as the market outside, but the items being sold here were all stones.
The voices of the people were not as loud as those in the outside market; most of them were speaking softly, creating a more “civilized” atmosphere.
There were all kinds of stones, with some people setting up stalls and others occupying large areas to sell their stones.
It was Lilly’s first time seeing such a scene, and she couldn’t help but be curious.
She saw someone asking a stall owner, “How much is this raw stone?”
The owner said the stone came from a certain mine and was of a certain quality, and then quoted a price of three hundred thousand.
Lilly’s eyes widened instantly.
Really? Stones could be so valuable?
Then she could just pick up a bunch from the roadside and become rich!
Pablo could tell what Lilly was thinking and said, “It’s not like that. These are raw stones, like the ones you bring back from underground. They may look like ordinary stones on the surface, but inside, they could be Royal Purple Imperial Jade.”
“If someone who doesn’t understand sees that stone, they would think it’s just an ordinary stone. But someone knowledgeable would judge it by the skin of the stone to determine if it’s jade…. If they buy it
for several tens of millions and it turns out to be all jade, worth tens of billions, then they’ve made a profit.”
Lilly suddenly understood.
So it’s gambling!
Gambling on whether there are treasures inside the stones.
Lilly looked at the customer who spent three hundred thousand to buy a stone and shook her head saying, “He’s making a big loss. That stone is just an ordinary stone with nothing inside
She glanced around and said. “This market is full of stones, but there isn’t a single piece of jade!
The market here wasn’t as noisy as the outside, so Lilly’s voice wasn’t particularly low
Once her words were spoken, everyone looked at her displeased, especially the stone sellers
The chubby uncle in colorful clothes, who had been carrying the rich spirit, appeared from somewhere.
his face looking unpleasant. “Little girl, don’t speak nonsense. Do you know you have to take responsibility for what you say? You don’t know anything, yet you’re saying that our gambling stone market doesn’t have real jade. Aren’t you ruining my business?”
Lilly looked over and saw that it was the uncle with the big belly who was carrying the rich spirit.
