I traveled through time and space and found a mute boy: That’s enough, I feel sorry for him

When Mu Jinghua came out, Xu Shu felt that everything was good.

Mu Jinghua is also in a critical period of growth. He has been paying attention to taking care of his body recently, and he is changing every day.

The previously dry and weak hair had long since turned black and thick, and it looked good enough when simply tied up with a hairpin.

He was no longer so thin, and his clothes looked better and better. He was wearing a soft blue brocade robe with a narrow gold-rimmed belt, which highlighted his slender waist.

Xu Shu noticed that the boy had a purse hanging around his waist that he had never seen before. Just as he was about to ask what was hidden inside, he heard Qu Xiu say, "You two are going out to play behind my back again?"

Xu Shu smiled at him: "How could I do it behind your back? It was clearly in front of you."

"Xu Shu!" Qu Xiu stamped his feet angrily and looked at Mu Jinghua, "Brother Mu, tell me, do you want Brother Xu or Brother Xu?"

What a ridiculous question! Xu Shu sneered. Even a seven-year-old wouldn’t compete for favor like this.

But he still looked at Mu Jinghua, wanting to see how the child would react.

Unexpectedly, Mu Jinghua took out a candy from his arms and handed it to Qu Xiu: "Be good, Senior Brother."

Qu Xiu was a little embarrassed: "Why... did you suddenly give me candy? I was just joking. You and Xu Shu have the best relationship. I know that. As your senior brother..."

He said a lot, and finally stuffed the candy to Mu Jinghua: "Senior Brother doesn't eat yours, so Senior Brother should buy you candy."

After saying that, he looked at Xu Shu again and snorted, "Remember to come back early. Mu Ge'er's eyes need to be treated with medicine later."

"I know." Xu Shu knew at a glance that he didn't understand what Mu Jinghua had just said. It was clearly words to coax a child, but he thought it was something else and even felt embarrassed.

But Mu Jinghua has also learned bad things recently. How can he use the same words to coax a child to coax his senior brother?

But Xu Shuke had no intention of telling Qu Xiu the truth. He pulled Mu Jinghua towards Yichun Tower with a smile on his face.

He had left Yichun Tower on hold for three whole days, and now rumors were rife in the town and in the tower.

People outside are guessing who bought Yichun Building, while people inside want to know how the future owner will treat them.

Du Wanbai was really upset by this. This feeling of being the only one intoxicated by the world while he was innocent made him excited for several days in a row. Finally, today was the day when the truth was revealed.

Du Wanbai packed up early in the morning and waited in the lobby for Xu Shu to arrive.

Others just thought he was puzzled because the boss hadn't shown up for three days, and the original guards and servants in the building basically didn't come either.

These men, who work as temporary or permanent workers, all have formal contracts with their employers to work for them. If they don't want to work, they can just leave. Even if the employer comes, it is not easy for him to investigate them one by one.

Unlike girls and boys who have sold their bodies, their indentures are kept by others and they have no freedom.

Moreover, before they left, they took away a lot of things from the building, making the already smoky and dirty building even more of a mess. Even though everyone's illnesses were cured, they still had sad faces.

Only Du Wanbai smiled every day, and I don’t know if he was crazy.

In the past two days, some prostitutes have been discussing how to escape, but they are afraid of being caught and tortured later, so they have been hesitant and have not made any moves.

In fact, Xu Shu had anticipated this situation and had told Du Wanbai early on that there was no need to encourage or retain those who wanted to leave. For those who wanted to leave, he could find a way to give them some money and let them go.

But it was not until he met Du Wanbai that Xu Shu was surprised to find that in this huge Yichun Tower, among the more than 800 prostitutes who had signed indentures to sell their bodies, not a single one dared to run away.

Du Wanbai also sighed when talking about this: "The world outside is equally bad. People like us have always been bullied, and most of us don't have the courage to go out."

Xu Shu glanced at Mu Jinghua and thought to himself that this was not the case. His little Mu Jin was able to bravely escape from this place and also return to this sea of ​​fire and swords for him.

So stupid. Xu Shu rubbed the boy behind him, his heart softened.

Mu Jinghua looked at Xu Shu in some confusion, but saw nothing. He opened his mouth and asked "What's wrong", but was pinched on the face by Xu Shu again.

"It's okay." Xu Shu looked at Du Wanbai again, "Are the people in this building registered on weekdays?"

Du Wanbai withdrew his gaze from Mu Jinghua, but did not dare to guess the identity of this noble man. He just nodded and said, "There is a roster in Mrs. Wang's house. I will go get it."

Xu Shu hummed, and looked at the other people in the hall. There weren't many people, but they were all dressed very smartly. However, they all had pale faces and numb expressions.

How can we provide service industry with this spirit?

Xu Shu coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention. He then took out the brocade box containing the title deed of Yichun Building and everyone's indentures, and opened it to show them.

After seeing everyone's slightly shocked expressions, Xu Shu finally spoke, randomly pointing to the girl closest to him and asking, "What's your name?"

The girl was about twenty years old. When she heard Xu Shu's question, she immediately knelt on the ground in fear and said respectfully: "My name is Caidie."

Xu Shu nodded and said, "Miss Caidie, please invite everyone in the building to come to the main hall. I have something to tell you."

Caidie responded but did not stand up. Instead, she looked up at Xu Shu timidly and asked in a low voice, "Sir, are you the new owner of our Yichun Tower?"

Xu Shu was silent for a moment before he said, "I am not anyone's boss. I just bought this building."

Caidie thought to herself, since he bought the building, wouldn't he be their new master? Could it be that this young master was planning to buy them out?

She panicked and hurried to look at Du Wanbai. Everyone had just seen Du Wanbai chatting with this master, which showed that they knew each other.

But Du Wanbai looked indifferent, neither sad nor happy, and it was hard to tell what she meant. Caidie was unsure, so she had to stand up and answer, and go upstairs to notify everyone to come down.

Du Wanbai followed her upstairs to go to Mrs. Wang's room to get the roster.

The other people in the main hall were neither standing nor sitting, and they looked at Xu Shu with fear and vigilance.

Xu Shu knew at a glance that they were not confident, so he simply assigned them some tasks.

He pointed at a boy at random and said, "You, go make a pot of tea."

Then he pointed at the others and said, "Three of you, come and put these tables and chairs on that stage. Yes, that's the stage where you usually sing and dance."

"Three more people, clean up the area down there and make a space that can hold 800 people. The rest of you will be in charge of removing the bright red silk. It's so ugly."

"Find a ladder, be careful, and throw the removed silk aside. I may need it later."

At this time, the people Caidie called over also came down one after another, and Xu Shu directed them to join in: "Go find a ladder quickly, one person will go up to dismantle it, and one person will hold it from below."

"Wait till the silk is taken down, and then sweep the floor."

"Is the tea I ordered not ready yet?"

"Little Hibiscus, just sit still. You don't need to go up to help. Be careful not to bump into anything."

"You, this boy," Xu Shu pointed at a skinny and weak boy and asked him with a smile, "How old are you?"
