Chapter 325: Chapter 325 Someone Has Ideas: A Well-Intentioned Warning (6)_1

Mo Yan looked at Lizhong with admiration, feeling as though she had stumbled upon a treasure. These convoluted matters were beyond her knowledge, and even if she tried to inquire about them, she would need the right connections to learn anything of substance.

Sensing her gaze, Lizhong couldn’t help but chuckle, "Yan girl, these things are not worth mentioning. A few more years immersed in the marketplace and you’ll understand."

If it weren’t for his early years managing business for his old master and gaining some understanding of the Xue Family, he wouldn’t have thought of these issues.

"Grandfather Li is too modest. Not everyone possesses Grandfather Li’s keen insight!" Mo Yan praised, then furrowed her brows, "So, our family shop has become an opportunity in the eyes of the Xue Family?"

"That’s right," Lizhong nodded, "The grain we sell in our shop is far superior in quality to what other shops offer. Just the taste and texture alone far surpass other grains, and naturally, the Xue Family wouldn’t miss this chance to regain the noble person’s trust."

As he said this, he looked at Mo Yan with a complex expression, ultimately unable to refrain from reminding her, "Yan girl, I don’t know where you get the grain you eat at home and the grain you sell in the shop, but now that some people are onto it, you need to be careful."

Initially, while staying at the Mo Family, he simply found their meals indescribably delicious, and at the time, he didn’t think much of it. It was only after the grain shop opened that he gradually sensed something was amiss. After all, it was improbable that such delicious grain was known only to them and yet they could procure it for sale. He had no intention of exposing this, but now that the Xue Family was involved, he felt obligated to warn her. As for the source of the grain, he was naturally curious, but he understood all too well that it was not his place to pry.

"Grandfather Li..." Mo Yan was greatly startled, and she dared not meet Lizhong’s eyes, fearing she would reveal the panic within them.

She forced herself to calm down and delicately reflected on where the problem might have arisen, but no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t figure it out. Every time she entered the Space, she was confident no one had discovered it, and everything she took out had a reasonable explanation. There was simply no possibility for a leak.

"Yan girl, don’t worry!" Having lived a long life, Lizhong could certainly understand what was on Mo Yan’s mind. He looked at her affectionately and comforted her warmly, "I only brought this up to give you a heads-up, not because I know what secret you are keeping! Everyone has secrets. If you don’t tell, I will never ask."

Lizhong’s words gradually put Mo Yan at ease, and she finally realized where she had slipped up! The grain in the Space after rising to the Fourth Level contained more Spiritual Energy, and compared to the outside world, its taste and texture were significantly different.

Because she had been eating the grain from the Space all along, she hadn’t noticed the drastic change, so she hastily sold the grain from the Space without waiting for the new crops to be harvested. It was no wonder those who had never tasted the Space’s grain could immediately tell the difference, which is why the Xue Family took notice!

Fortunately, no matter how hard they racked their brains, they would not think of the Space and would only suspect she used Sorcery, which was also quite perilous!

After a moment of silence, she finally spoke, "Grandfather Li, I can’t tell you the source of the grain for now. Next year our family will grow this grain, and once we extend it more broadly, no one will be keeping such a close watch on us. But for now, the most important thing is to get our grain shop through this crisis."

Knowing that the young girl didn’t hold any grudges for his earlier words, Lizhong was pleased. He analyzed the current problems in great detail and offered several suggestions.

After a lengthy discussion, they finally agreed on a strategy to deal with the situation...
