Magic Industry Empire - 517. Chapter 517 Raising the Butcher Knife
When Prince Eric took over as the king is a foregone conclusion, many people in Bangta City couldn’t help feeling a little panicked.
Her Royal Highness Servigny is the lord of Bangta City, so Bangta City can almost be regarded as the back garden of Sevigny, her loyal supporter and backing.
Now that Prince Eric succeeds in taking over the throne, then according to the usual practice, it is clear that the previous situation will be liquidated. Then, cities like Bangta City that have clearly expressed support for Her Royal Highness Severine will inevitably be targeted by His Royal Highness. .
Among all the chambers of commerce in Bangta City, the most worrying is naturally the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
The relationship between the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and Her Royal Highness Severni is the closest of all in Bangta City. The president Xu Yi is an extremely staunch supporter of Her Royal Highness Severini, and has repeatedly publicly rejected Her Royal Highness Eric. The recruitment of, almost completely broke with His Royal Highness Prince Eric before.
In the eyes of everyone, the New Flying Merchants Association is undoubtedly the thorn in the eyes of His Royal Highness Prince Eric. Once he succeeds in succeeding to the throne, the New Flying Merchants Association will definitely not escape the doom of being liquidated.
It is precisely because of this worry that even Xu Yi had to make advance plans in advance and was forced to stop the development plan of the Rainy Valley, and also transferred some of the most precious resources of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce to the base of the Duchy of Stantin. Go, beware of the troubles of His Royal Highness Prince Eric.
But the facts are beyond everyone’s expectations.
After his Royal Highness Prince Eric successfully ascended to the throne, he did not take any excessive actions against Bangta City. Not only did he not take the new flying business association as everyone expected, he even made a special statement to commend it. The outstanding contribution made by the New Flying Business to the development of Bangta City almost shocked everyone’s jaws.
And even though the new city lord of Bonta City who succeeded Sevigny is King Eric… well, it should be called by King Eric himself. After coming to Bonta City, he revealed to Xu Yi and the New Flying Merchants Association. With a very friendly attitude, he did not always target the New Flying Merchants Association like Earl Stark was the city lord.
In addition, the new city lord also expressed everywhere that he would continue to support the development of Bangta City’s magic industry, tickling the good foundation laid by Her Royal Highness Severini, and developing Bangta City into a new type of prosperity that can become a model for the entire Kingdom of Lampari. city.
Everyone was confused by the attitude of King Eric and the new City Lord.
Your Majesty King Eric…what are you thinking about?
Regarding this question, King Eric made a clear statement in a special interview with the “Lampari Weekly”.
He claimed in this interview that he used to be just an ordinary prince, because he was competing for the throne with Her Royal Highness Sevigny, he would naturally regard the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, a staunch supporter of Sevigny, as an enemy, and of course hope to target it everywhere.
However, once he ascended to the throne and began to think from the perspective of a king, he discovered that the magic industry represented by the New Flying Merchants Association played a huge role in the development of the Kingdom of Lampari.
Since he is already the king of this kingdom, the first thing to consider is of course the development of the entire kingdom.
The new flying business association and the magic industry are beneficial to the kingdom. Of course, he must support the new flying business association and the magic industry to continue to develop. It is not unusual to change his attitude towards the new flying business association.
Through the statement of His Majesty King Eric in this interview, everyone suddenly realized.
I have to say that the explanation given by His Majesty King Eric is extremely reasonable.
He is already His Majesty the King, so naturally he can’t look so narrowly. No matter what he does, he needs to consider the interests of the entire kingdom.
It is said that… After this interview was published and distributed to the whole country through the “Lampari Weekly”, the scattered voices against His Royal Highness Prince Eric’s taking over the throne from all parts of the kingdom suddenly disappeared. The entire kingdom has achieved unprecedented improvement.
Even in Bangta City, where King Eric was most worried before, there were many voices in support of the new King.
For a while, the situation in the entire Lampari Kingdom seemed to be what Servigny had said to Xu Yi before.
Only when the throne is transferred smoothly and smoothly, will the Lampari Kingdom achieve the most stable and favorable development situation.
Seeing the situation in Bangta City and the entire kingdom with his own eyes, even Xu Yi was shaken for a while.
However… the facts show that everyone is too happy, especially Xu Yi.
One month after His Royal Highness Prince Eric took the throne, a little bit of it was not very eye-catching at first glance, but when we looked closely, news that was unfavorable to the New Flying Merchants Association kept coming.
The first is that the factories set up by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in other cities in the kingdom began to be specially inspected by the city lord’s mansion in various places.
In nominal terms, this is because His Majesty the King cares about the development of the magic industry, so the most representative New Flying Merchants Association must be used as the subject of investigation.
But in fact, during the investigation process, Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has set up many magic machine tools in various factories, and even the entire production line was directly moved away in the name of the investigation, even some workers and engineers in the factory. Taken away in the name of assisting in the investigation.
Although these personnel were released later, the magic machine tools and equipment were all gone forever.
Then, a special Magic Industry Administration was established under the Kingdom Council.
As the name suggests, this is specifically used to manage the various chambers of commerce involved in the magic industry in the Kingdom of Lampari.
The first to bear the brunt is naturally the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
According to the regulations of the Magic Industry Administration, any chamber of commerce that involves the Magic Industry must accept the unified management of the Magic Industry Administration.
The so-called management requires all chambers of commerce related to the magic industry to unconditionally cooperate with the magic industry management agency. For example, the management agency requires all chambers of commerce involved in the magic industry to have a certificate issued by the management agency before they can start production.
On this certificate, the Administration has set up a corresponding certificate for different magic machines.
Therefore, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, which currently produces more than one hundred types of magic machinery, needs to apply for more than one hundred certificates.
And every time you apply for a certificate, the procedure is complicated, so the various fees paid are also expensive.
Take the magic refrigerator production certificate as an example. If you want to get the approval, you need to pay as much as three hundred gold coins.
After the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has handled all the certifications for all types of magic machinery, the cost is more than 40,000 gold coins.
As for the unavoidable gray expenditures in the process of applying for approval, it is by no means less than this amount.
In other words, just because of the certification requirements, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has spent more than 80,000 gold coins.
The term of the certificate is only one year…
If it is said that spending tens of thousands of gold coins a year does not have a big impact on the New Flying Business Association, then another regulation of the Administration Department is totally unacceptable to Xu.
In the name of supporting the development of the magic industry in the entire kingdom, the Magic Industry Administration requires the new flying business to open its own unique technology to other magic industry chambers in the kingdom to help other magic industry chambers to develop and grow.
Xu Yi firmly refused this request.
And when the Magic Industry Administration asked other magic industry chambers of commerce in the kingdom for their opinions, they also received opposition from the vast majority of chambers of commerce.
Almost all chambers of commerce agree that such a regulation completely violates the most basic business principles.
If the management agency enforces it, it is tantamount to destroying the iron rules of all chambers of commerce in the Kingdom of Lampari.
In consideration of the reputation of its own chamber of commerce, no chamber of commerce dared to support this decision of the Administration.
Because the opposition was too fierce, the Administration had to give up in the end.
However, through this incident, Xu Yi thoroughly recognized King Eric’s true thoughts.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to deal with the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, on the contrary, he wants it very much.
It’s just maybe because of concerns about the agreement with Severini, maybe because he has just ascended the throne and needs to preserve some face, or maybe someone has given him advice to make him less direct…or it can be said that he is not so direct. So ugly.
In short, he is now taking a chronic, seemingly very soft, and not very noticeable method against the new flying business association and the magic industry represented by the new flying business association.
Xu Yi certainly guessed what he really thought.
As a king, he certainly hopes to be able to firmly grasp the magic industry, which has had a profound impact on the entire Lampari kingdom, in his own hands.
And the commercial tax reform implemented by the new city lord in Bangta City after this, in Xu Yi’s view, is already a performance that he can’t wait.
This commercial tax reform is almost like an unobstructed and naked raising of a butcher knife aimed at the magic industry represented by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, with the intention to chop off the fattest piece of meat right now. Come, fill the diehard nobles behind him who supported him ascending the throne.
Every time he thinks of this commercial tax policy reform, Xu Yi can’t help but sneer in his heart.
His Royal Highness Prince Eric finally got his wish on the throne with the support of the nobles, but how could these nobles support him free of charge?
As much as they give, these greedy nobles will naturally want to get several times or even dozens of times in return from him.
The appointment of Duke Stark as the prime minister of the kingdom and the post of director of the Magic Industry Administration in person have clearly revealed this point.
It’s just that these are Xu Yi’s conjectures, but they can’t talk to Servigny in detail.
Looking at Severini in thought, Xu Yi sighed in his heart.
He didn’t know how much Severini knew about these situations.
If she knows the series of actions taken by His Royal Highness Prince Eric, will she regret that she had rather let down the expectations of countless people before giving up the fight for the throne completely?
A young man wearing the uniform of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce suddenly ran over from a distance, and stood still in front of Xu Yi panting, awakening Xu Yi and Servigny who were at the same time in deep thought.
“What’s the matter?” Xu Yi was a little puzzled, but he had confessed that it was okay not to disturb the private conversation between him and Servigny.
“Yes… Lord President, Kamado City… Lord Lord is here.” The young man replied, breathing heavily.
“Oh? Lord City Lord is here again?” Xu Yi blinked, turned his head and smiled at Severini. “His Royal Highness, are you interested in watching a good show?”
