Hearing Sarah's words, Yang Yan's eyebrows also furrowed slightly.

Logically speaking, Sarah is the owner of this house, so even if there's something inside, it shouldn't harm her.

Why does she look like she's been frightened?

And she looks quite frightened, at that.

Seeing Yang Yan's reaction, Sarah gave a bitter smile and continued:

"Sir, there's a garden in the front and also a garden in the back, and it even connects to the sea."

"In terms of environment and decoration, this place is top-notch."

"But as I told you, this place isn't clean. Otherwise, it would have been sold at a high price long ago."

Yang Yan chuckled lightly:

"Let's not talk about whether it's clean or not. Let's discuss the price instead!"

"If there's no issue, I think we can finalize the deal today."

"Oh, by the way! I'm guessing the property tax for this house isn't small?"

Sarah stared at Yang Yan for a full five seconds before seriously asking:

"Sir, are you serious? I've emphasized to you repeatedly that this house has some issues. Are you sure you still want it?"

Before Yang Yan could speak, Dawn, who had examined the villa's layout, excitedly said:

"Uncle Yang, this house has basically no problems."

"The interior just needs some minor fixing."

"If you agree on the price, I think we can hire someone for the renovation."

Dawn had absolute confidence in Yang Yan.

After all, it's just a mere haunted house. There would obviously be no issue with Yang Yan handling it.

You should know, even the courtyard in the Imperial Capital didn't trouble him.

"If you're sure you want it, then how about ten million U.S. dollars?"

Sarah hesitated a little and quoted a number hesitantly.

"Ten million?"

Upon hearing Sarah's words, both Yang Yan and Dawn were momentarily stunned.

"What's wrong? If you think it's too expensive, the price can still be negotiated."

Sarah asked nervously.

It was clear she was in deep financial need, eagerly wanting to offload the villa.

Ten million U.S. dollars was already a high price for her.

Of course, if the house was in normal condition, ten times that price wouldn't be a problem.

But the issue is, since she inherited the house, no one has been able to live here for more than two days.

Everyone who stayed either went inexplicably mad or ran off on their own.

"No problem, as you said, ten million! Do you want a check or a bank transfer?"

Yang Yan asked with a smile.

"A bank transfer!"

Sarah said with some delight.

However, after saying that, she added:

"Sir, I won't use the money right away; I'll wait for three days."

"If after three days you haven't changed your mind, then I'll use it."

Yang Yan nodded with a smile, praising:

"Haha, in this society now, people like you are rare."

"Rest assured, we can handle things here."

"If you're in urgent need of money, and the amount isn't enough, I can actually add some more for you."

"I can tell, this villa is definitely worth more than a mere ten million U.S. dollars!"

"Ah?"

Sarah exclaimed in surprise at Yang Yan's words, becoming even more puzzled.

"Alright then, let's proceed to handle the formalities! Do you need a lawyer?"

Yang Yan looked at Sarah and asked seriously.

Sarah shook her head:

"That's not necessary, I'm a lawyer myself."

"But if you need one, I can introduce you to some good lawyers."

The matter here was basically settled, and Yang Yan, along with Dawn, followed Sarah to get the contract printed.

Once the contract was printed, both parties happily signed their names.

All that was left was for Yang Yan to transfer the money to complete the transaction.

"Thank you very much, I'm very pleased with that house."

After transferring the money to Sarah, Yang Yan said with a smile.

Sarah gratefully replied:

"No, it's I who should thank you. You have no idea how much I need the money right now!"

"With your ten million, I can finally get out of my current financial trouble."

"However, it's you I'm a bit worried about."

"That house is truly haunted, I hope you won't take risks."

Yang Yan chuckled, nonchalantly saying:

"Haha, don't worry, we won't take any risks."

"So, let's leave it at that. I have to go choose some furniture."

"I just checked - a lot of things inside need to be replaced, so we'll leave now."

After parting with Sarah, it was already noon.

Yang Yan handed the keys, which he got from Sarah, directly to Dawn.

Looking at the excited young lady, Yang Yan asked with a smile:

"Where do we need to go now?"

Dawn immediately answered:

"To find people to work! Not to mention, the plants on the outer walls are hard to handle."

"If we want to move in quickly, we need to get someone on it right away."

This haunted house was well-known.

At the very least, the neighbors all knew of its existence.

Therefore, when Yang Yan and Dawn were looking for workers, they ran into trouble.

Once people heard it was for this place, they all refused to come.

Even when Yang Yan offered a high price, they still wouldn't come.

"No way, we underestimated its reputation."

Dawn said with a frown.

"Haha, it's simple. We can just look for people over in Queens."

"I refuse to believe that with enough pay, we won't find any workers."

Yang Yan said indifferently.

In the end, Yang Yan and Dawn managed to find workers in Manhattan.

And to Yang Yan's curiosity, those guys didn't even raise their prices upon knowing they would be working here.

"Everyone, pay attention and do a good job. This will benefit us greatly in the future."

"None of you should slack off! All workers should form groups of three and not separate."

The foreman sternly addressed his crew.

As the workers gradually entered, the task of cleaning up the entire house began.

"Uncle Yang, are you sure it's fine to leave everything inside like that?"

Dawn asked Yang Yan, a hint of concern in her voice.

"Haha, don't worry! Whatever's inside doesn't have a killing intent."

"By nighttime, I'll have a good talk with it."

"Who knows, maybe we can resolve this peacefully."

Yang Yan glanced at the workers who were already busy, speaking confidently to Dawn beside him.

This job was both labor-intensive and technical.

They had to constantly cut off the vines clinging to the building.

Additionally, they had to clean the outer walls without damaging the building itself.

"Ah!"

As the workers were dealing with the vines on the walls, someone let out a scream.
