Huo Changxian was about to wash his face before asking more questions when the servant came in through the curtain.

"Sir, someone has come to the county master's courtyard. Please come over and have breakfast."

When he mentioned this and thought of the bowl of chicken soup, Huo Changxian's already bad complexion turned even uglier. He felt like vomiting even before he drank it.

"If you go and reply, say I'm busy and let mother use it first, and then go over to say hello later."

The boy went outside to reply, and the nanny smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. The county master knew that the eldest son was busy, so he specifically told the old slave not to rush him. When the eldest son is finished, he will go again. I will wait for him."

The boy had no choice but to go into the room again and said to Huo Changxian.

He didn't need to reply. Huo Changxian had already heard it. He suppressed his discomfort, washed his face, and looked back at the shaman.

"Shaman, think about it carefully. We can talk about it when I come back."

Jinshan's eyelids couldn't hold up for a long time, and as soon as he went out, they immediately stuck together.

When grandma saw Huo Changxian coming out, she bowed slightly and said, "Master, please come."

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, the servant at the door came to report: "Sir, Mr. Jia is here."

Huo Changxian was overjoyed. Mr. Jia came at just the right time. He was a distinguished guest and it was important matters. His mother also knew that there was no need to go there.

"Mommy, go and tell mother. Mr. Jia's visit must be an important matter. I can't neglect it."

Mammy also knew that Mr. Jia and the girl next to him had some abilities. She did not dare to say anything, nodded and retreated.

"Quick, please!"

Huo Changxian went back to the house again. When he saw the shaman, he felt suspicious again. Mr. Jia came here, didn't he want to take the shaman back?

Thinking of this, he ordered the boy to push the shaman away first, and then ordered someone to serve strong tea to cheer him up.

Now the shaman is here with him. He agreed to stay for two days, so he must stay enough. He hasn't asked anything yet, so it is absolutely impossible to let him go like this.

Silently making up his mind, Huo Changxian was surprised that not only Huo Changhe and Yan Ruyu came, but also shopkeeper Yu from the grain shop.

Huo Changxian suddenly thought that perhaps because he had just taken over the shop, the shopkeeper and the clerks were difficult to discipline and did not listen to Master Jia.

He lowered his eyes to hide the smile in his eyes: Mr. Jia is doing such a big business and has many people under his command, but his ability to control them seems to be no more than this.

"Master Jia, come on, please take a seat, come and watch the tea!"

Huo Changhe waved his hands, coughed a few times and sat down. Yan Ruyu caressed him, caressed his back, and said lightly: "There is no need to drink tea. We are here to ask about something."

It was a question, not a request. Huo Changxian knew the difference between the two, so he smiled and said, "The girl seems a little unhappy?"

"I'm not happy with it," Yan Ruyu raised her voice, "I wonder if the young master is dissatisfied when he gave the shop to my young master?"

Before Huo Changxian could answer, Yan Ruyu added: "If it is, we won't force it. There are shops all over the street, and it's not like my young master can't afford them. It's true that the purpose of doing business is to make money, but you can't earn it while vomiting." Money, it’s more of a loss than a gain.”

Huo Changxian heard her harsh tone, which showed that she was very angry.

"Where did the girl start talking about this? I gave you the shop and asked the servant to transfer the ownership immediately. How can I be dissatisfied? I don't know..."

Yan Ruyu looked serious: "Sir, please forgive me for being disrespectful. I must correct your statement. You did not give us the shop, but you wanted to borrow the shaman as a reward for this. Although the transaction between us and you is not money, but You must also know what it means to be a shaman, and this cannot be bought with money."

"Since," Huo Changhe said slowly, "Young Master feels that this transaction is inappropriate, then stop it now. I don't care."

Huo Changhe glanced at Yan Ruyu, who took out the prepared deed and placed it in front of Huo Changxian.

Huo Changxian just said that he was a little confused after suffering so many "hard blows". He didn't know why or what was going on.

He could never take back the deed, so he could only persuade him with good words.

"Sir, what exactly is this? Can you explain it clearly?"

Huo Changhe started to cough again, and Yan Ruyu snorted coldly: "Sir, you said that the grain store is the most profitable, but when we took over and took inventory, there was not even a grain of rice in the store. If you want to give us an empty store, then you can As we said in person, it doesn’t matter if we look for food.”

"We trust the young master. After the transfer of ownership yesterday, we didn't take over immediately. Who would have known that something like this would happen this night," Yan Ruyu said with a half-smile but not a smile. "What the master did, I'm afraid it's not very honorable, right?"

Huo Changxian was stunned. He did feel distressed and reluctant to part with it, but he would not use such low-level methods to give the store and secretly have the rice emptied out?

He turned to look at Shopkeeper Yu: "What's going on? Why don't you tell the truth! What did you do? I don't do everything for you!"

Shopkeeper Yu was originally full of confidence. He had worked hard for so many years. Not to mention hard work, he also had a lot of credit. Who were these outsiders? The eldest son had to speak to him no matter what.

But looking at it now, Shopkeeper Yu suddenly felt a little unsure.

Then I thought again, a similar situation had happened before. Every time the price of food increased, it was the eldest son's instruction. If the governor asked about it, or someone had an accident, the eldest son would openly reprimand him, but in fact, he would reprimand him later. I will make it up to him again.

Huo Changxian didn't know that Shopkeeper Yu was thinking a thousand times at once, with countless thoughts flashing through his mind. When he saw that he was hesitant to speak, he frowned and asked, "I'm asking you to speak, why don't you answer!"

"Back to the eldest son," Shopkeeper Yu came to his senses and replied quickly, "I don't know what's going on. Yesterday everything was fine. When I left, there was food in the granary and the rice vat, but For some reason, when I went there early today, it was... empty."

Shopkeeper Yu had not come around before, but when he reported it to his face, he suddenly thought that it was probably the eldest son who sent someone to do this. He emptied the store overnight without anyone noticing, except for the eldest son. It simply cannot be done.

Yes, yes, the eldest young master must not be willing to give them the shop, so he decided to do this. This requires him to cooperate with the young master to cover up this matter. It would be better if he could get the shop back. Got it!

Shopkeeper Yu straightened his back and said: "Young Master, in my opinion, there must be something fishy about this matter. I have followed you for many years in this shop, and I have tried my best to take care of it for many years. Maybe the shop has its own spirituality, and I don't want to Leave the young master."

He glanced at Huo Changhe: "The shop doesn't know the temper of the new owner, nor does the villain know, so... Master, please think twice about this matter!"

Yan Ruyu laughed briefly and glanced at Huo Changxian.

This look was so sarcastic that Huo Changxian felt as if he had been slapped in the face, his face burning.
