Chapter 241
Shashi City .
At foot of the Yuelu Mountain .
An elegant villa was constructed there .
Those who came here were either rich or high-end people .
Because there was a high-end club in this villa, only the senior officials and rich people were received here .
A person you casually meet here might be a group executive or head of a department .
Crackling…
A loud sound of firecrackers came from the wide courtyard .
At the moment, inside the courtyard .
The pavilions were divided into sections, each having delicate and elegant tables .
It was like a banquet held by a large family in ancient history films .
The guests were in suits or in formal attire
Outside the courtyard, there was a lot of curiosity .
“How can anyone set off firecrackers here?”
“You don’t know . I heard that the third branch of the immortal spring restaurant is opened here . ”
“I think I saw director Li of city hall go in before . This immortal spring restaurant has such capability that even director Li can be invited?”
“Haha, this is nothing, I also saw provincial governor Zhang’s secretary . ”
Immediately the person got startled .
The significance of the secretary of the provincial governor was not ordinary . He doesn’t represent himself, but the provincial governor, that was to say, the provincial governor sent people to attend the opening of this immortal spring restaurant .
Yes, this was the immortal spring restaurant of Shashi .
The reason why they chose to open the business near the start of the new year was that most of the people at this time were not busy .
However, this was the busiest time for the catering industry .
Immortal spring restaurant was going to use this time for publicity .
Although the immortal spring restaurant was well-known in the southern province, it was mainly concentrated in Yang city and other surrounding counties .
Most of the people invited here were related to Ye Xiaochen .
In addition to businessmen, there were also government officials, such as the head of several large enterprises that were cooperating with the Yang city plant consciousness research inst.i.tute .
They were not interested in the immortal spring restaurant opening, but they came as they had to give Ye Xiaochen a face .
More official level people were coming . However, several big leaders have sent their secretaries . After all, they have a special status, so it was better to partic.i.p.ate less in such occasions .
Although not many people came as compared to the Yang city branch, the quality was much higher .
It was six o’clock in the evening .
Several low-key looking cars were parked in the parking lot .
The special security guards took the guest from the car through another pa.s.sage .
At the moment .
There was a table set up with food and wines in a luxurious private room of the Shahsi branch immortal spring restaurant .
Ye Xiaochen and w.a.n.g Shusiheng were drinking with several people .
All these people have extraordinary status .
Each of them has an amazing origin .
Zhang Sheng, governor of the southern province .
He was a middle-aged man who looked extremely energetic .
Another person was Shen Yipedng, secretary of the Shash munic.i.p.al party committee .
There were also three famous large group bosses, who have cooperation with the Yang city plant consciousness research inst.i.tute .
Each of them has far more a.s.sets than w.a.n.g Shuisheng .
Under normal circ.u.mstances, even w.a.n.g Shuisheng couldn’t eat with such people .
Their level was higher than him .
Although w.a.n.g Shuisheng was the richest man in Yang city, in the provincial capital it was not enough .
“Professor Ye, is the super rice really amazing as you said?”
Zhang Sheng asked in a deep voice .
This gathering naturally was not just for fun, but about some important things .
“Governor Zhang, it is better than I said . ”
Ye Xiaochen said with a light smile .
“That’s good . I’ll give my full support . At least, in the southern province, I can make decisions . ”
Zhang Sheng was confident about Ye Xiaochen and laughed .
The promotion and application of super rice were not as simple as rapeseed . Super rapeseed was only promoted in one county and city, and the impact was not big .
However, super rice was different .
It involves the whole province and in the future the whole county, it was conceivable that how strong resistance they could encounter .
After all, this involves too many interest groups . Now the rice seeds circulating on the market were mainly hybrid rice .
The interest group of hybrid rice was too large . On the contrary, the intersect group represented by Yang city plant consciousness research inst.i.tute was just a newborn and hasn’t been fully integrated .
The promotion of super rice was very difficult, without the policy support, it was likely that it would be difficult to move forward, and might end before it even starts .
As it was very difficult, Ye Xiaochen chose to take advantage of his status .
Since he became an a.s.sociate professor at the Chinese Academy of science and brought Yang city plant consciousness research inst.i.tute in the southern province, a national-level branch of the Chinese academy of sciences, he has been in contact with official and commercial forces represented by Zhang Sheng .
As they want to get benefits, they have to support Ye Xiaochen’s research work .
“With the support of Governor Zhang, there would not be any problem . ”
Ye Xiaochen laughed .
Now the situation in the southern province was becoming clear, Zhang Sheng had the possibility of rising further, the Southern Province top leader was already in half-withdrawal because of physical illness .
Zhang Sheng before was already able to compete with the top leader, but now he has gained more power, because he won over the Yang city plant consciousness research inst.i.tute, a branch of Chinese Academy of Science .
Now Zhang Sheng has a strong voice in the Southern province .
“As long as the cultivation of super rice is successful, we will naturally cooperate . ”
The three company bosses said quickly .
They all have businesses that are related to agriculture and planting and have a very strong influence .
There were government and businessmen support on the side, therefore the promotion plan of super rice in the southern province was already half successful .
Of course, today was just a meeting, they would still wait and look at the development of super rice .
After all, this was not a kind of event that could be decided at once .
The next thing was to naturally drink and eat food; the atmosphere was very harmonious and relaxed .
For Zhang Sheng and others, it was their first time eating and drinking wine at the immortal spring restaurant .
“Professor Ye, the foods are really delicious . I really admire you, even the vegetables you cultivated are so delicious and amazing . ”
Liao Xueliang, the chairman of the Jiuding group said while eating .
“Old Liao, this fruit wine is even better . It is absolutely amazing . The Wuliangye liquor I have drunk before is simply waste compared to this . ”
Another boss taking the sip of wine said .
“You know I can’t drink, and you are still tempting me?”
Liao Xueling glared at the person, he smelled the aroma of wine and felt his throat move .
He has an alcoholic liver, so he couldn’t touch alcohol at all .
The others burst out laughing .
“Mr . Liao, the vegetarian dishes in the immortal spring restaurant have the effect of maintaining good health, you eat more, it is very good for your body . ”
Ye Xiaochen smiled .
Liao Xueliang’s eyes lit up and said, “ that’s great . I have been eating vegetarian food for a long time, and have lost the taste for it . However the vegetarian dishes here still taste delicious, I finally found a place to eat . ”
“Unfortunately, I’m very busy with my work and can’t come here often . ”
Zhang Sheng said .
He couldn’t come here to eat every day, not to mention the time spent, the influence also won’t be good .
This time coming to the immortal restaurant was also low-key, not many people know about it .
After all, he was the head of the province, leaving the work and going to eat out regularly won’t look good .
“Me too . ”
Shen Yipeng, secretary of the Shashi munic.i.p.al party committee also said .
“It’s okay, I will provide the ingredients for you guys . As long as you have a good cook, the dishes will taste good . ”
Ye XIaochen smiled and said .
“Then we thank professor Ye . ”
Zhang Sheng was very happy .
Ye Xiaochen would be supplying them with the best ingredients .
The position they were in now, they have eaten all types of delicacies and were tired of eating them .
However now, the vegetarian dishes of the immortal spring restaurant have made them thoroughly love the food .
