The ghost salesman tries to outbid the brothers on the price of the stamp, but the brothers refuse to believe that he is trying to blackmail them. If they are caught in the ghost market, the superintendents will confiscate as much as half their offer. The brothers are not sure whether the ghost salesman will trust them or not. He will continue to try and outbid them, but they will stop him when he offers a lower price, and he will get the stamp and the credits. They will not be able to explain what they did, and no one will believe them. They decide to open up a new market in Guizhou province.
