"Nine?" he suggests, since that might give Ezra time to shift at least a couple of papes first thing, and it gives him time to get himself where he needs to be and make sure nobody else is there.
He does feel bad about cutting off most of a day's selling, but he isn't sure how he'll be able to offer Ezra any money to make up for it without insulting him - it's one thing for him to spend his coin on the kids in Brooklyn when they need it, but offering something that'd be seen as charity, especially when Ezra knew he was rich? It'd be hard to get him to accept that, probably.
At least he might be able to help him find some answers, and if he happened to slip a quarter or two in Ezra's pocket during the day without him noticing, that worked too.
