I Have an Immortal Emperor Uncle Who Farms at Home Chapter 6: Ten Thousand per Plant
Laiyang Town Medical Center
After bringing the old lady into the hospital room, Ye Fan and the others waited in the hallway outside, watching for any updates from inside.
Once they got to the hallway, Yang Hu walked up to Ye Qingcheng and greeted her.
"Ye Qingcheng, do you still recognize Uncle Yang?"
Though it had been many years since they last met, Yang Hu hadn’t changed much. Ye Qingcheng smiled and said, "Uncle Yang, of course I recognize you."
Back in high school, Ye Qingcheng used to spend a lot of time at Yang Lili’s house. They studied and played together often.
After getting into university, she hadn’t seen much of Yang Lili. On top of that, she got married before even graduating, when she was pregnant with Nuonuo so there were even fewer chances to meet again.
"Sigh, time really flies. It’s already been eight years," Yang Hu said with emotion.
"Yeah, it’s been almost eight years since we last saw each other," Ye Qingcheng replied. Then she remembered something, and pulled Nuonuo over.
"Nuonuo, come say hello to Grandpa Yang."
Nuonuo felt a little shy and nervous around strangers, but with her mom and uncle by her side, she bravely said, "Hello, Grandpa Yang. My name is Nuonuo."
"Aiyoh, Nuonuo, you’re just too cute," Yang Hu said, clearly delighted. He wanted to pick her up, but Nuonuo immediately hid behind Ye Qingcheng.
It was a little awkward for Yang Hu, but Ye Qingcheng quickly stepped in.
She gently pulled Nuonuo forward and said, "It’s okay, Nuonuo. Grandpa Yang just wants to give you a hug."
With her mom’s encouragement, Nuonuo finally let Yang Hu pick her up.
Looking at the well-behaved little girl in his arms, Yang Hu turned to his daughter, "Lili, when are you going to give your old man a granddaughter?"
As soon as that came up, Yang Lili groaned, "Ugh, Father, must you bring up that topic?"
"Well, it’s because you’re not trying hard enough. You can’t even find a boyfriend. Look at Ye Qingcheng, her kid is already five years old."
Saying that, Yang Hu turned away from Yang Lili and looked at Nuonuo with nothing but affection in his eyes.
Seeing Yang Hu and Yang Lili bicker made Ye Qingcheng smile quietly to herself.
After a while, it seemed like Yang Lili remembered something and said to her father, "Father, we haven’t even talked about the main thing yet."
Reminded by her, Yang Hu turned to Ye Fan and Ye Qingcheng, "Qingcheng, don’t worry. If that guy Wang Scar ever causes trouble again, just come to me."
Ye Qingcheng knew what kind of background Yang Lili’s family had. Back in high school, Yang Hu was already the deputy manager of a well-known local company—Laiyang Group. After eight years, his position must’ve become even higher.
But since this was a personal matter, Ye Qingcheng didn’t want to trouble their family.
"Uncle Yang, it’s alright. We’ll handle it ourselves."
Yang Lili, knowing Ye Qingcheng’s personality, quickly spoke up, "Ye Qingcheng, you really have to listen to my father on this one."
"But…"
"Qingcheng, don’t be afraid to trouble us. Actually, I’ve got something I need your help with too."
Hearing that, Ye Qingcheng was a little puzzled. What could someone in a high position possibly need from her?
"Uncle Yang, just tell me. Don’t worry about whether it’s troublesome or not."
"It’s about your cabbages, how many do you have left?"
"Huh? The cabbages?"
Ye Qingcheng was quite surprised. She hadn’t expected him to ask about their cabbages.
"Yes, we brought a lot to sell today."
"Perfect. Then sell the rest to me, name your price."
Originally thinking they were already sold out, Yang Hu was thrilled to hear they had more.
Others might not know, but he knew very well—those cabbages were truly miraculous.
"The price, I…"
"The price," Ye Fan suddenly cut in before Ye Qingcheng could finish. "10,000 yuan per plant. I’ll only sell you five."
Everyone was stunned the moment Ye Fan spoke, even Yang Hu was taken aback.
He looked at Ye Fan in shock, silently thinking, This kid sure knows how to open his mouth wide…
Ye Qingcheng was just as surprised.
She looked at her younger brother, "Ye Fan, what are you talking about? 10,000 yuan? You think the cabbage is worth 10,000 yuan?"
"It’s worth more than 10,000 yuan."
"Ye Fan, it’s not worth 10,000 yuan, and you still—"
"Big sis, I said it’s worth more than that." After his sister finished speaking, Ye Fan stepped up to Yang Hu and casually asked, "Uncle Yang, you know what the cabbage did yesterday, right?"
"This..." Yang Hu suddenly felt a surge of emotion inside. "How does he know about this?"
"Whether this cabbage is worth 10,000 yuan or not, why don't you be the judge?"
Ye Fan didn’t care too much. In the fantasy world, even though this kind of vegetable wasn't top-grade, it would still be worth quite a few gold coins.
Seeing her younger brother speak so bluntly, and even asking for 10,000 yuan per head of cabbage, Ye Qingcheng thought only a fool would agree to that price.
But what Yang Hu said next left Ye Qingcheng speechless.
"Alright, I’ll buy them all."
"What?" Yang Lili and Ye Qingcheng exclaimed in unison.
Clang…
A nurse opened the hospital room door, poked her head out, and said sternly, "Please keep your voices down in the hallway!"
"Sorry, sorry."
Clang…
Once the nurse closed the door, Yang Hu lowered his voice and said, "It’s settled then. Five heads of cabbage, fifty thousand in total."
"No problem," Ye Fan replied, then looked over at Ye Qingcheng and said, "Sis, go ahead and pack them up for Uncle Yang."
Ye Qingcheng still had a hard time accepting the idea of selling cabbage for 10,000 apiece, and considering Yang Lili was her classmate, she said, "Ye Fan, how can we possibly do that?"
"Sis, Uncle Yang already said the cabbage is worth that price."
Yang Hu chimed in from the side, "Qingcheng, go on and pack them up for Uncle Yang."
Having experienced the benefits of the cabbage firsthand, Yang Hu was now eager to close the deal, afraid Ye Fan might change his mind and not sell anymore.
Standing beside Yang Hu, even Yang Lili didn’t object to what he was doing. After all, she had seen the cabbage’s effects herself. She just didn’t expect Ye Fan to set the price so high.
Seeing the situation, Ye Qingcheng had no choice but to head downstairs, with Nuonuo following close behind.
After mother and daughter left, the door to the hospital room opened.
A middle-aged doctor walked out and asked, "Excuse me, how are you related to the patient?"
"We’re not actually related," Ye Fan explained. "We just ran into her at the farmer’s market."
"Alright," the doctor nodded. "The patient is mostly fine now, just a mild concussion. But due to long-term malnutrition, she’s anemic and will need to stay a few days for observation."
"That’s a relief. Thank you, doctor."
Just as Ye Fan was expressing his thanks, the elderly woman’s voice came from inside the room.
"No, I want to go home. I want to go home."
The nurse standing by the bed tried to reassure her. "Ma’am, you need to stay here a bit longer for observation before you can be discharged."
The doctor walked in and asked, "What’s going on?"
As soon as she saw the doctor, the old lady anxiously said, "Doctor, I—I want to go home. I don’t have any money, and my old man is still waiting for me at home. I need to take care of him."
"Grandma, don’t worry. We’ll cover the expenses."
At that moment, Ye Fan came over to her bedside, gently held her hand, and reassured her. After all, she had gotten hurt because of him, and he still felt deeply guilty about it.
But the old lady still didn’t want to stay. "Dear child, please let me go home. I still have an old man waiting for me there."
Seeing that she was so insistent, Ye Fan had no choice but to go along with her. After explaining the situation to the doctor, he helped the old woman out of the room.
Just then, Ye Qingcheng returned carrying the cabbage.
"Uncle Yang, here are the five heads of cabbage."
She handed them to Yang Hu, who lit up with joy at the sight of the fresh green vegetables.
"Yes, this is it."
Then, Yang Hu took out a check from inside his jacket, filled in the amount, and handed it to Ye Qingcheng.
"Qingcheng, here—take it."
But Ye Qingcheng was still hesitant. Fifty thousand was no small sum.
"Uncle Yang, maybe we should forget it…"
Seeing she still wouldn’t accept it, Yang Hu pretended to be annoyed.
"Qingcheng, if you keep this up, your uncle will get upset."
"That’s right, just take it already," Yang Lili added, taking the cabbage from her father and backing him up.
"Well… alright then."
When Ye Qingcheng finally accepted the check, Yang Hu gave a satisfied smile.
