After I was reborn, I became the richest man in the underworld

In fact, before the person upstairs spoke, Zhou Nan knew who he was from the sound of footsteps.

The chubby shopkeeper walked down the stairs tremblingly holding a candle holder. When he saw Zhou Nan, he was slightly taken aback. After a while, he squeezed out a surprised smile.

"Eleventh Young Master? A rare visitor!"

"Shopkeeper Yang, long time no see."

It seemed that it took some time to ponder Zhou Nan's reason for coming. After the shopkeeper Yang put down the candlestick in his hand, he invited them to sit down and slowly made a pot of tea for them. He didn't say a word during the whole process, but smiled a little creepily.

After a while, he walked to the three people's table with a tea tray and poured tea for them skillfully.

"Eleventh Young Master, your nobleman has not shown up for a long time, and the shop still keeps this Yuqian Longjing for you. There is also this set of clear water purple sand tea set. I have never used it for anyone except you. I hope that one day you will come again. Visit the store."

Although shopkeeper Yang loves money like his life, he is not a stingy person.Every time Zhou Nan checked in, from meals to drinks, from mattresses to incense, he had carefully prepared these small details.In fact, everyone knows that shopkeeper Yang is a thoughtful businessman, but once he loses his integrity in the business field, everything else is useless.

Chang Zhiheng has always loved to collect famous teas. When he heard Longjing before Yu, his eyes lit up and he stared at the tea tray. If Mu Xi hadn't glanced at him, he would have almost forgotten the serious purpose of their trip.

"The shopkeeper has a heart." Zhou Nan smiled naturally, and picked up the teacup, "Why don't I want to come over, but your shop is too big, it's busy when it's big, and it's easy for people to get lost when it's busy. I just like quiet .”

Shopkeeper Yang heard the overtones, Zhou Nan was trying to find out the old account of pressing orders to get kickbacks before turning over him.As soon as Zhou Nan came, he attracted a large number of suitors, and each seeker had to give him a lot of favors to have the chance to meet the famous Ghost Eleven, and he earned a lot of money from it every year.It turned out that this gray business could be developed without anyone noticing, but he was too impatient, and Zhou Nan found out that he pressed too many orders that time.That is, after that incident was exposed, the business in his shop plummeted, and he was almost blocked by most of the Soul Traffickers.

He coughed lightly and explained in embarrassment: "Eleventh Young Master, if you don't remember the villain's mistakes, don't blame me anymore. I was a little confused at the time, and you know that the underworld is strictly controlled these days, and business is not good Do it, I am forced to..."

"Understood, it's not easy for anyone to do business." Zhou Nan curled his lips and clicked.He originally wanted to hear the attitude of the other party, but it seemed that his nature was hard to change.

Zhou Nan has been walking on this road for many years, and often encounters ghosts and ghosts trapped in the quagmire, and it is not uncommon for him to help.But if it is self-inflicted and unrepentant, that is another way of saying it.The way is different, he never force it, Zhou Nan lowered his head and smelled the fragrance of tea, then said with a smile: "Treasurer Yang's tea has never disappointed me, it is really good tea."

Mu Xi didn't pay attention to the tea and the tea set, he was drinking tea on the surface, but he was actually paying attention to the faint ghost aura in the shop. He felt that the ghost aura was very strange, as if it was disturbed by something else.

But Chang Zhiheng was addicted to tasting tea and couldn't extricate himself.Although he can also get some high-quality tea sets from time to time, this level of Longjing after the rain is not something that can be bought with money.And the Qingshui Zisha, he roughly calculated the price, and just now he listened to the conversation between Zhou Nan and the shopkeeper, secretly thinking about how much Ghost Eleventh Young Master spends in and out on weekdays.Fortunately, when we were in the Temple of Bu Er, everyone thought that the dinner Su Yushi held to thank the benefactor was too expensive, and Eleven Young Master even ate those simple meals with them. It turned out that they usually received such unexpected treatment. .

Thinking of this, he looked up at Zhou Nan, who was putting down the teacup in his hand, and said to the shopkeeper, "Speaking of which, I really miss this taste. I happen to have an important business to discuss, and your place is quiet today , I like it, please arrange three upper rooms for us."

Chang Zhiheng was stunned: "Why three rooms? Shouldn't it be two..."

Before he finished the question, he regretted that he had spoken too quickly. His senior brother and Eleventh Young Master definitely didn't want to make their relationship public so soon.Sure enough, the three people on the opposite side looked at him, especially the shopkeeper, who looked suspicious, as if waiting for something to eat.

His heart tightened, he swallowed his saliva, and added, "Don't you know? I dare not sleep alone when I go out..."

When the shopkeeper heard this, he looked a little disappointed and relaxed, but in the blink of an eye, he was confused: "Hey, it is really an honor for the shop to have you as a distinguished guest, Young Master Eleven, come to the shop, but... you have also seen the current situation, the shop It has been closed for a while. Now that Xiao Er and the cook are not here, I am sorry that the shop is really unable to receive..."

As soon as Zhou Nan heard this, he knew there was a problem. With shopkeeper Yang, there was never a reason why money should not be earned.

"Old Yang, you are not interesting. Your store is wide open, and you have no sign to close. You have to do business when you open the door..." Zhou Nan looked at him, took out a silver ticket, pressed it on the table and pushed it over. "We really have no place to go tonight. It's convenient for you. I don't need the previous specifications, as long as I have a room."

Shopkeeper Yang squinted at Zhou Nan's banknotes, feeling a little greedy.After all, as long as Ghost Eleven Shao makes a move, the denomination cannot be small.With a tangled look on his face, he forced himself to look away from the bank note, and said helplessly, "Young Master Eleven, it's not that I don't want you to live, it's really..."

Zhou Nan heard that he had something to hide, and had a premonition that his secret was an important clue to them.He waited, but shopkeeper Yang was still hesitating, so he took his hand away from the bank note.

After seeing the amount on the bank note, shopkeeper Yang seemed to have been stimulated by something, and pursed his dry lips: "Master Eleven, to tell you the truth, my inn is no longer up to me."

As soon as these words came out, Mu Xi and Chang Zhiheng who were on the side became alert, and both had a premonition that the answer they were waiting for was about to come out.

Zhou Nan said calmly, "Oh? How do you say that?"

Before shopkeeper Yang spoke again, he glanced at Mu Xi and Chang Zhiheng, and then said to Zhou Nan: "Young Master Eleven, let's take a step to talk?"

Chang Zhiheng gave shopkeeper Yang a blank look when he heard the words, expressing his dissatisfaction.

Zhou Nan smiled faintly and shook his head: "It doesn't matter, they are not outsiders, so let's talk here."

Shopkeeper Yang thought for a moment. Although what he wanted to say was very important, he understood Zhou Nan's character. If he was not someone he trusted completely, Zhou Nan would not be with him.

"Then I'll tell you directly, Young Master Eleven, that since... since I did something stupid that time, the business of the inn has not been as good as before. But you also know that I am a person who is easy to gamble. I had a lot of debts, and when the business was cut off, I... I couldn't repay the gambling debts, so I quit this gambling addiction later on."

Chang Zhiheng curled his lips and interrupted suddenly: "Since I quit, is there any problem?"

Shopkeeper Yang sighed, and continued with a frowning face: "Of course there is a problem. I still owe the last gambling debt. Although the business is not good, I can still make ends meet. I think I can live frugally. I can save some money, and when I pay off my debts, I'll turn over a new leaf."

Zhou Nan listened with his eyes downcast, smiling in his heart, the inn was full of antique treasures, he could pay off his gambling debts by selling any of them, he worked so hard to make up such a long story.

"But then, for some reason, there were fewer and fewer tenants, and the business was completely gone. I took out a loan shark before I was able to repay the debt, and now I owe even more. However, I was lucky, and later met I met a nobleman, and he promised to buy half of my inn at double the price of this inn."

Chang Zhiheng frowned when he heard this, and said bluntly: "That person is mentally ill? Your inn is not small, and the price must not be low. Buy half of the store at double price? How can there be such a reason?"

Amidst the fragrance of tea, Zhou Nan stared at the slowly rising heat in the teacup, without too much emotion in his eyes.

Shopkeeper Yang went on to say: "I was also worried about it. After all, there is no such cheap thing in the world, and I don't know why he made such a generous move. But at that time, it was life-saving money for me. Of course I just...just accepted."

Although Chang Zhiheng hadn't realized it yet, both Zhou Nan and Mu Xi knew that this mysterious buyer must have something to do with Xie Yan, or even Xie Yan himself.

"And then?" Chang Zhiheng asked.

"Then... I paid off my gambling debts, and I thought I could start a new business, but the nobleman said that this store will not be open for business in the future, and he will use it for private use. He said that I will come to clean it regularly. , every month, he also pays me a considerable sum of money.”

Chang Zhiheng looked around again, confirmed that this place was still a decoration of the inn, and then looked up at the upstairs, sincerely puzzled: "What is he requisitioning this place for? Does he live here?"

"He doesn't live here. As for what he's going to use this place for... I don't want to ask more about the money paid by the nobleman..." Although he answered Chang Zhiheng, Shopkeeper Yang stared at Zhou Nan.

Hearing this, Chang Zhiheng suddenly understood that the person shopkeeper Yang was talking about was probably either his father or Xie Yan.

Shopkeeper Yang gave Zhou Nan another cup of tea, and said in a flattering tone: "Young Master Eleven, you see, I can't help it... This location is a good location, it's a pity that I can't do business. You know, I can't do business, Unlike you, the business in the human world and the ghost world is so big..."

Zhou Nan raised his eyes: "Old Yang, don't beat around the bush, just speak up if you have something to say."

"Look, how about...how about you buy the half of the store in my hands? After that nobleman finishes his personal affairs, you can buy the other half of him, so that you will be the owner of the store." Shopkeeper, Sun Moon Inn will definitely make a comeback." Shopkeeper Yang rubbed his hands, looking at Zhou Nan with guilt and expectation.

"It's not impossible." Zhou Nan picked up the teacup again, "But now this store is not up to you, I have to meet your noble partner."

"That noble man...he hasn't shown up for a while, and usually some servants run errands for him, and I have no way of contacting them."

"Is that so?" Zhou Nan put down his teacup and was about to get up, "Then next time, wait until you see your nobleman, and then tell Yan Qi. Let's go."

"Eleventh Young Master, wait!" Shopkeeper Yang hurriedly stopped the person, knocked over the teacup in a hurry and did not help him, "I can tell him, you sit down first, we have something to say slowly."

Mu Xi looked at Zhou Nan, let go of Jingxue's tightly clenched hand under the table, and breathed a sigh of relief.He had just confirmed that the ghostly aura in the room was mixed with evil aura, and he was identifying the location of this evil aura.On the other hand, Chang Zhiheng straightened the clear water purple sand cup poured on the table with distress.

Seeing Zhou Nan sitting back, Shopkeeper Yang wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Young Master Eleven, can you see if this works? You write a letter, and I will send it to him for you. Just write...just write that you want to buy something. Don't say that I want to sell this inn, please."

"can."

"Really? Great, then I'll go and prepare pen and ink for you."

"Tomorrow morning, take me to my room."

The shopkeeper was stunned: "The room...in the room?"

Zhou Nan nodded with a smile: "We are sleepy, we need to rest overnight."

Shopkeeper Yang paused for a moment, hesitating, but afraid that the cooked duck would fly away, he gritted his teeth and agreed with a smile.

"Okay, rest first! Young Master Eleven, you can move into your room at any time." He looked at Mu Xi and Chang Zhiheng again, "Also, I will go and clean up the rooms of the two young masters."

"He lives in the other room." Zhou Nan looked at Chang Zhiheng, then turned around and pulled Mu Xi up the stairs.

Chang Zhiheng petrified in place: "..."

Why did he go so far as to tell that lie?
