Chapter 526 Gu Shuo is really brave
"You... heard it?"
Dean Chen was in a daze. She wondered how loudly the emperor spoke that even a little girl like her could hear it.
"Yeah, my ears are very sensitive." Ye Qianning pulled his ears with his little hands.
Dean Chen couldn't help but take a few more glances. Every time he chatted with his little disciple, he would discover some of her magical talents, which could always bring surprises to people.
"The Nanyuan business is what Boss Gu and I plan to do. We will monopolize Nanyuan's aquatic products and promote Nanyuan's planting." Ye Qianning told Dean Chen about his plan to cooperate with Nanyuan.
Dean Chen listened attentively. Cooperation would not harm Nanyuan at all. The little girl said that if it was suitable for Nanyuan to grow crops, there would definitely be a harvest. Twenty copper coins for aquatic products was already a high price.
Emperor Nanyuan still wanted to raise the price, but he was just tying himself up in knots by returning the price to eight copper coins.
Although Emperor Nanyuan would not agree to the price of eight copper coins immediately, he felt that within half a year, Emperor Nanyuan would ask for cooperation.
If the people of Nanyuan don't make money after the summer, it will be difficult for them to survive the winter.
"Nanyuan produces an astonishing amount of seafood in a year. Where are they selling it to if they have a monopoly?"
"Master, how do you like the taste of the various seafood you ate the day before yesterday?" Ye Qianning asked.
Dean Chen nodded after savoring the taste: "This is the best seafood I have ever eaten."
"What Master has tasted is just the tip of the iceberg. If we use seafood from Nanyuan as ingredients, the taste will be even better. By then, we can open a chain of restaurants across the four countries, and with the sales of seafood on the rise, we'll have no problem making money."
"I've been to Nanyuan before. The seafood there is indeed better than Beili, but the journey is too far and no one would travel so far to buy seafood. If there are no problems with transportation, I think this business is feasible." Dean Chen is still savoring those flavors.
Even people who don’t like seafood can’t resist the novel cooking methods and flavors.
"The transportation is still under planning. Even if this deal is completed, it will take one or two years. There is no rush now. Detailed planning is still needed." With the intervention of Emperor Beili, the cooperation with Nanyuan will take about two years at the earliest.
Dean Chen nodded slightly, and suddenly something occurred to him: "The Emperor also knows about Nan Yuan's affairs? Did you reveal it to him? Or did you agree with the Emperor?"
"It's all Gu Shuo's fault."
"Why? The Emperor asked me about Nanyuan today, and he even sent people to investigate the situation there. It seems he's also planning to cooperate with Nanyuan."
"The emperor is very suspicious. Gu Shuo resigned from his position as the imperial merchant and suddenly got involved in other businesses. He was suspicious. Gu Shuo vaguely revealed the cooperation with Nan Yuan, so the emperor asked people to investigate. He felt that there must be huge profits, otherwise who would waste money." Ye Qianning guessed that the emperor would make some moves.
If I'm not mistaken, after Emperor Beili investigates, he will snatch this business from Gu Shuo.
"What about your cooperation with Nanyuan?" Dean Chen didn't know much about business.
"Let him rob. We'll see how long he can keep up this money-losing business. If he fails, he won't doubt others. He can only blame them for being stupid and incompetent, not others."
Ye Qianning couldn't help but admire Gu Shuo for being such a fox, daring to plot against even the emperor.
If Emperor Beili cooperates with Nanyuan, he will definitely build a convenient road for transportation, which will make it much easier for them to take over.
Some people tried to build roads in the early stage, which saved them money and effort, so they were eager for them to wade into the muddy water.
Dean Chen gradually understood a little bit of the trick and said with a sigh, "Gu Shuo is really brave."
