Early in the morning, Zhang Yan and Mr. Xia left the villa and went to Xiangyang City business.

The merchant is not in Xiangyang City, but in the suburbs. It is a huge manor. It covers at least hundreds of acres of land, and ancient buildings with a rainbow can be seen everywhere standing in the manor.

"What a grand manor, what a magnificent building." I couldn't help but feel excited and sighed sincerely.

Xia Yu also looked envious. After the Xia family and the merchants were both famous doctors, if it were not for the accident many years ago, the Xia family might not have ended up with the current land, which would have been more luxurious than the merchants.

"Zhang Yan, this is the merchant's manor in Xiangyang City. The merchant's traditional Chinese medicine business is spread all over the country and is also the largest force in Xiangyang City."

Xia Yu's introduction made Zhang Yan feel very upset. Is it interesting to make these things now? If you lose, it would be fine, but you would just lose face. If you win, you will undoubtedly offend the merchant. This time, you have done a business that will lose money.

"Let's go in! Don't let the merchants wait and worry." Xia Yu greeted Zhang Yan, and the two walked towards the door of the manor.

There were two security personnel at the entrance of the manor. When they saw Xia Yu and Zhang Yan coming slowly, they stepped forward to block their way. They only put them in after handing over the invitation from the merchant. After the two of them entered the manor, the two security personnel started discussing.

"Hey, isn't Xia Yu bringing his granddaughter to the competition every year? What's wrong with this year I brought a boy."

"I know that no matter what we do, I'll just wait for the salary increase with all our affairs! Grandma's, half of the salary is used to rent a house and the other half is used to eat. I don't plan to do it if I don't raise the salary. I have served the merchant for so many years and have a salary of 2,000 yuan a month, which is too deductible!"

"You complain so that you won't be told by others when you hear me."

"So what if you tell him, you can't do it at worst."

Under Xia Yu's leadership, we walked through one garden after another and entered a wooden pavilion. In the pavilion, we sat an old man and a young man laughed and talked, and drank tea leisurely.

The wooden pavilion is facing a small garden with good scenery and very good air. The fragrance that hits you makes Zhang Yan unable to help but sniff his nose. There are a few exquisite pastries on the table. Outside the pavilion, several servants stand aside, which can meet the needs of both of them at any time.

The old man in the pavilion noticed Xia Yu who was walking slowly, got up to greet him, and the young man next to him also stood up to the outside of the pavilion.

"Brother Xia, don't be fine!"

"Haha, I'm so lucky to be Brother Shang, I'm pretty tough. This is Shang Yun! I'm getting more and more handsome."

"Haha, if you are not handsome, how can you marry your granddaughter? Shang Yun, hurry up and meet Mr. Xia."

With grandpa's order, Shang Yun bent reluctantly and shouted "Old Xia".

When Shang Zu saw the boy beside Old Xia, he looked stunned, and then smiled and said, "Brother Xia, this is the helper you hired! He doesn't seem to be old, so you really have confidence that he can win Shang Yun."

"Brother Shang, you can't win! This is the rule set by my ancestors, and I dare not violate it."

Shang Zu sneered in his heart. Even if Xia Yu found a helper, he would not believe that the other party could win his grandson Shang Yun. If it weren't for the deep medical background of the Xia family, he wouldn't have let Shang Yun marry the girl of the Xia family. As long as Shang Yun married Xia Shang and Xia Yu died, the entire Xia family would have become the business of the merchant and his strength would have improved by leaps and bounds.

"Young man, will you feel uncomfortable getting up so early?"

"No, I have been getting up early since I was a child." Zhang Yan smiled and waved his hand to say that it was okay.

On the surface, Shang Zu is very friendly and gives people a kind feeling, but Zhang Yan vaguely feels that Shang Zu is not as simple as it looks on the surface. Especially a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, which made Zhang Yan feel even more creepy.

"Sit down and have a cup of tea first, have some breakfast, and we will arrange a competition between the two later."

Xia Yu accompanied the two of them to sit on the wooden stool in the pavilion without hesitation. Zhang Yan also sat down carelessly. Without the invitation of the merchant, he grabbed a plate of snacks and started eating them voraciously. He didn't eat breakfast and was really hungry.

Shang Yun glanced at Zhang Yan, who was rude and sneered disdainfully. In his opinion, such a boy was simply vulnerable.

Seeing the boy's actions, Shang Zu frowned.

"Is the young man also from Wutai County? Why haven't I heard Brother Xia mention you before?" Shang Zu asked Zhang Yan, who was lying on his head to eat pastries.

As if he was asked by Shang Zu's words, Zhang Yan's throat was choked by the pastry. He picked up the tea on the table without hesitation and drank it. After a while, he replied: "I am just an unknown little doctor. I can't go to the table. It's just that Mr. Xia appreciates it."

Zhang Yan's words not only gave Xia Yu a face, but also blocked Shang Zu's question, and his answer was completely indescribable.

"What a wise boy." Shang Zu praised from the bottom of his heart.

"So that's it! No wonder Brother Xia recommends you so much."

Seeing that Shang Zu was not asking questions, Zhang Yan swept the pastries on the wooden table again, and it was not until the last pastry was in his stomach that he burped with satisfaction.

“This pastry is so tempting and delicious.”

"Would you like to have a game?" Shang Zu asked politely when he saw Zhang Yan's unfinished expression.

"Then I thank Mr. Shang. Don't need too much. Just have one plate. By the way, Mr. Xia, do you still want it? If you want it, just have two plates."

"I don't need it anymore." Old Xia replied.

"Mr. Xia doesn't need it, just give me a plate!"

Shang Zu did not expect that he politely refused the boy to take it seriously. Anger appeared on his face, causing the servant to bring a plate of pastries.

Shang Zu and Xia Yu were talking. Zhang Yan was only interested in eating delicious pastries, while Shang Yun stared at Zhang Yan with disdain and said nothing. Those who didn't know thought he was a starving ghost.

"Young man, are you full?" In order to avoid what happened just now, Shang Zu simply did not continue to ask.

"It's so delicious. Thank you Mr. Shang for your breakfast. If you knew there were such delicious pastries, you wouldn't have eaten last night and have a belly to eat your pastries."

The three people present were speechless. They had seen shameless people, but had never seen such shameless people.
