Chapter 2667 Yang Xuangan: "It's good to grow cotton!"

Four years passed in a flash, and it was the thirteenth year of Kaihuang.

Yang Jian, who was gradually entering his old age, had also reached the age of knowing his destiny.

Recently, Yang Jian ordered Yang Su to build a palace in the north of Qizhou, but this is a very large-scale building. It cannot be completed without the use of tens of thousands of workers.
Even so, there will be many people who die of exhaustion.

Thinking of this, Yang Su's heart was filled with depression.
After all, the purpose of being a minister is to share the emperor's worries, but at this moment, Yang Jian showed no emotion.

Who knows if he will slap himself for this?
But just as Yang Su was hesitating, his eldest son Yang Xuangan walked in, his face full of refreshed look.
Looking at his son in front of him, Yang Su couldn't help but scold: "Where have you been!"

"Reporting to father, I went to play in the International Building yesterday!"

Looking at Yang Su with a smile on his face, Yang Xuangan hurriedly bowed and explained,

"Wan Guo Building?"

Looking at Yang Xuangan in confusion, Yang Su seemed to have heard this name somewhere before.

"Father, my Yang family owns shares in Wanguo Building. Have you forgotten?"

Looking at Yang Su's expression, Yang Xuangan quickly explained,
"But it was that kid from the Lu family who did it!"

Hearing Yang Xuangan's words, Yang Su quickly reacted.

Because in the past few years, whenever Lu Yan did some business, he would always bring the Yang family along.
To the outside world, he used the name of Yang Gong, the Supreme Pillar of the State, and showed a lot of respect, so Yang Su simply left it alone.
After all, what Lu Yan did was not against any moral principles. On the contrary, it could help the Yang family make more money!

"That's right, father, it was Brother Yan who did it!"

Looking at Yang Su in front of him, Yang Xuangan was filled with joy.
Because apart from anything else, just in this Wanguo Building, Yang Xuangan could lie in it for 364 days a year, and only come back for one day to worship his ancestors!
Yang Su:.
"It's disgraceful to be away from home all day long!"

Looking at Yang Xuangan angrily, Yang Su could not help but scold him.
But facing his father's words, Yang Xuangan said awkwardly: "Yesterday, all the major families gathered here. I am sorry if I don't go!"

Looking at his son in front of him, Yang Su couldn't help but frown and said, "I heard that the Yuwen family and the Li family have slave operations overseas. Is it true?"

"Of course it's true, father. My family has a lot of business overseas, and we can earn millions of taels every year!"

Hearing Yang Su's words, Yang Xuangan hurriedly explained,

"What, there are so many?"

Looking at Yang Xuangan in surprise, Yang Su could not help but stand there in a daze.

Because he has never taken care of the family over the years, everything was controlled by Yang Xuangan, but he never expected that he would have so much money!
"That's not all. In addition to overseas, our family now has farms, orchards, international buildings, and amphitheaters for overseas crops."

Just after Yang Xuangan finished speaking, Yang Su's eyes flickered and he asked, "The farm you're talking about, is it one acre of potatoes that can produce thousands of kilograms?"

"It is this thing, father. Uncle Lu was awarded the title of Duke of Su with this thing last year!"

Looking at Yang Su in front of him, Yang Xuangan hurriedly explained,
Last year, Lu Yan planted sweet potatoes and potatoes for several rounds and had enough seeds, so he asked his father to donate them.
But no one expected that Emperor Wen of Sui, seeing the "auspicious sign" bestowed by heaven, would confer the title of Duke of Su on the spot!
"You idiot!"

Looking at Yang Xuangan angrily, Yang Su wanted to pick up the teacup in his hand and smash it on his face.
You know, when Yang Su first learned that Lu Hankui was awarded the title of Duke of Suguo, he was dumbfounded.
Because why shouldn’t Yang Su get such a treasure?

With this thing, no matter the movement of the sun and the moon or the change of dynasties in the future, Yang Su will eventually become a "sage"!

After all, one acre of land can produce thousands of kilograms of grain. This is like a blessing!

However, Yang Su was not jealous of his younger brother Lu Hankui's promotion and wealth, because the Lu family had always been a loyal ally of the Yang family. Regardless of whether he became the Duke of Suguo or not, Lu Hankui was still very respectful to Yang Su.

The other people in Guanlong didn't have any thoughts about this. After all, what they got was more than a duke.
Besides, the current Guanlong Group has reached the point where it can no longer be promoted. What we need to do is to leave a way out for future generations!

The maritime trade route opened up by Lu Yan is exactly what the Guanlong Group needs!

"Your Majesty ordered me to build a palace in the north of Qizhou. Now my father does not want to use labor. What do you think should be done?"

Looking at Yang Xuangan in front of him, Yang Su spoke with shining eyes,
"It's easy if we don't use forced labor. We can just use Kunlun slaves. Nowadays, all kinds of work in Jiangnan are done by Kunlun slaves. Besides, it's a blessing for these overseas people to come to our Sui Dynasty! They are not worth much even if they die!"

Yang Xuangan spoke calmly, his eyes full of contempt.

As one of the shareholders of the Colosseum, although Yang Xuangan had never been overseas in person, he had heard a lot from his family members.
Because in that wild land, there were actually a group of Kunlun slaves who built houses with straw and mud.

What is this? This is a gift from heaven that you should not take, and you will suffer the consequences!

God has sent the slave to me, and if I don't bring him back to guard the door, wouldn't it be a sin?

Lu Yan: Good guy, Brother Yang, your proverbs are level ten!
Yang Xuangan: Hey, this is no match for Brother Lu’s eloquence!
After hearing what Yang Xuangan said, Yang Su asked, "How many Kunlun slaves are there in Jiangnan now?"

"There should be at least 200,000, right? Even in Daxing, there are many Kunlun slaves for sale now, all of which are business of the Yuwen family and the Li family! Among them are the Zhao family and Houmochen."

Hearing Yang Xuangan say this, Yang Su was stunned for a moment.
No wonder the people from the Guanlong Group have been basically banned from speaking in the court recently. It turns out that they are not paying attention to the court affairs at all.
"How many Kunlun slaves do you have?"

Looking at Yang Xuangan in front of him, Yang Su couldn't help but ask,

"I rarely manage overseas business. There are only about 7,000 people, but they all grow cotton on the farm. Dad, let me tell you, cotton is a good thing. After it is made into clothes, winter is not cold at all. The clothes you wore last year were made of cotton!"

Looking at Yang Su excitedly, Yang Xuangan started to get excited when he talked about cotton, because this was the big business that Lu Yan left for the Yang family.
Even if he sells cotton in the future, Yang Xuangan will still be able to control 5% of the economic lifeline of the Sui Dynasty!
"Bring the people over to me, I want to repair the palace!"

Looking at Yang Xuangan in front of him, Yang Su couldn't help but become serious.

Since they are people from overseas, then he, as the Supreme Pillar of the State, has nothing to worry about. No matter how many people die, isn't it just like a piece of cake?

"Dad, what should we do with the cotton field?"

Looking at Yang Su in shock, Yang Xuangan couldn't help but ask,
"Then go find the Lu family kid and get another batch! They're just a bunch of slaves anyway!"

Yang Su waved his hand calmly, not intending to continue to care about Yang Xuangan.
"Dad, that cotton is very valuable. Aren't you trying to kill me?"

Seeing Yang Su leaving, Yang Xuangan shouted,

"I tell you, come with me to the palace tomorrow, and I will send you to Ganzhou to be the governor!"

Looking at Yang Xuangan, Yang Su explained,

"Ganzhou, why go to Ganzhou? I won't go to that damn place!"

Looking at Yang Su with grievance, Yang Xuangan didn't know what was going on, and he was about to be sent away.
"Idiot, Ganzhou is more suitable for growing kapok trees! If you keep talking nonsense, I will beat you to death!"

Turning his head to look at Yang Xuangan, Yang Su couldn't help but scold him.
"Oh, yes, Ganzhou is a good place, Dad, wait for me!"

Thinking of the deserted land of Ganzhou, Yang Xuangan became excited, because if he were there, wouldn't he be able to draw a circle and grow cotton?
