Not long after, Ye Fan brought out a few dishes.
As soon as the dishes were served, Yang Guang and Lai Hu 'er couldn't help but feel hungry.
"It smells so good!"
Yang Guang took a deep breath and looked at Ye Fan with a face full of surprise."I say, Brother Ye, you really can surprise me every time! These dishes were really delicious. Without tasting them, one could tell that they were definitely delicious!”
The dishes that Ye Fan made were not complicated either. It was just a spicy chicken, a boiled meat slice, a chopped pepper fish head, and a tomato and tomato scrambled egg.
Five dishes, three people, and a pot of wine.
She started eating happily.
Ye Fan had also developed a rule. As long as Old Yang and Old Lai came, he would directly ask the waiter to close the door and stop receiving guests to avoid being disturbed.
Just like that, the three of them ate and talked.
Although Yang Guang and Lai Hu 'er had eaten many delicacies before, they had never tasted such delicacies before. They couldn't help but feast until they were extremely satisfied before they stopped.
"Little Brother Ye, to be honest, I am indeed very interested in seeds like yours. How many do you have?”
After Yang Guang finished eating, he could not help but ask curiously. His gaze as he stared at Ye Fan was filled with urgency.
"As many as you want."
Ye Fan shook his head and said,"I'm just short of money, so I want to cooperate with the two of you. The two of you pay, and I'll pay the seeds. As long as you trust me and cooperate with me, I guarantee that you'll make a fortune!"”
"It's not that we can't cooperate, but what do we need to do?”
Yang Guang asked in confusion.
"It's very simple. You just need to go to the north to find abandoned farmland and hire the local villagers to cultivate. Pay them wages. As for the land rent, pay it to the local officials in charge of managing the farmland.”
"Then no matter how much land I can get, can you provide me with as many seeds as I want?”
Yang Guang narrowed his eyes and asked meaningfully.
"Definitely!"
Ye Fan nodded affirmatively and patted his chest to guarantee,"Don't worry, my seeds are inexhaustible. You don't have to worry about the supply at all!”
Seeing that Ye Fan was so sure, Yang Guang could not help but secretly look at Lai Hu 'er and think to himself, What if I can transfer all the fertile land in the Great Sui Dynasty for use?
In his opinion, no matter how many seeds Ye Fan had, there should be a limit.
As the emperor, he could have as much land as he wanted. As long as the Great Sui had it, he could use it.
However, Ye Fan might not have such ability.
However, he did not say it directly. Anyway, Yang Guang had also seen Ye Fan's magic, so he more or less believed his words.
"Alright, then I'll go back and study the details. After I'm done, we can officially start working together!”
Ye Fan made an okay gesture. Yang Guang didn't understand, but he didn't care.
"Shopkeeper Ye, it's the twelfth month of winter now. It's freezing outside.”
Lai Hu 'er asked curiously.
He had never seen the land Pei Ju planted outside Luoyang, so he didn't know much about it.
"Of course, these seeds of mine ignore the seasons and can be planted at any time!”
Ye Fan nodded affirmatively.
"It's really magical!"
Lai Hu 'er couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"Little Brother Ye, these seeds of yours are so magical. Where did you get them from? Could it be that you have a heavenly deity helping you?"
Yang Guang joked.
"Stop fooling around. There's no God.”
Ye Fan shook his head and said with a mysterious expression,"I made these seeds myself, but this is a trade secret, so I can't tell you casually. In short, we've been together for a long time. Moreover, this matter is of great importance.”
Seeing that Ye Fan was unwilling to say it, Yang Guang could only give up.
"Alright, but Little Brother Ye, it's fine for us to do business together, but I'll have to pay for the people and go to the local area to build connections. This is not a small expense. If we split it 50 - 50 like you said before, isn't it a little unfair?”
Yang Guang said with a smile.
In fact, he did not care about the money at all. To him, this money was simply a drop in the ocean. As the emperor, he did not care about this small profit at all.
No matter how much money he earned from farming, it was far less than the taxes collected by the emperor.
If Yang Guang was willing, so what if he even gave all the benefits to Ye Fan? As long as they had a bumper harvest, the Great Sui Dynasty could quickly develop other industries.
After all, he wouldn't have the energy to think about anything else after eating his fill!
"I say, Old Yang, you're a businessman after all. Why don't you even know this little rule?”
Ye Fan pursed his lips." I'm a technical supporter. Without my technology and seeds, your money will rot in the ground. At that time, you can only watch helplessly. I only asked you for 50% because of our good relationship. If it were anyone else, I would have asked for 80% directly!”
After hearing Ye Fan's words, Yang Guang could not help but nod. He felt that what Ye Fan said was really the case.
"Alright, since that's the case, I won't say anymore.”
"That's more like it!"
"How satisfying!"
Yang Guang immediately exclaimed in relief, his face filled with happiness.
"Right, Little Brother Ye, there's one more thing I want to ask you. If the Son of Heaven insists on attacking Goguryeo, is there really no chance of victory?”
"That's hard to say."
Ye Fan shook his head."But it's still the same. If we fight now, even if we win, it will be a miserable victory. The gains will not make up for the losses. If the emperor was in front of me, I would definitely advise the emperor to bear with it for the time being and recuperate for a period of time. After all, the damage caused by the construction of the Grand Canal to the Great Sui is too serious!”
Speaking up to this point, Ye Fan could not help but raise his head and let out a long sigh. He said sadly,"It's a pity that Tian Zi can't hear what I'm saying.”
Yang Guang and Lai Hu 'er looked at each other and couldn't help but snicker.
Do you know that the current emperor of Great Sui is sitting in front of you?
"I really hope that Tian Zi won't be in such a hurry to fight. After all, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Not only does Goguryeo have conflicts with Great Sui, but it also has conflicts with the neighboring countries.”
"When Goguryeo and the other countries erupt in conflict, Goguryeo will definitely fall into chaos, and Great Sui will be able to reap the benefits.”
"Once the citizens have recovered, we can mobilize our army. A mere Goguryeo can be easily wiped out.”
