Magic Industry Empire - 531

“Don’t look at me with that look, I know what you are thinking.”

Sevigny glanced at Xu Yi with a smile on his face, and couldn’t help but give him a blank look.

“Don’t worry, I am here to see you this time, but I am not here to ask you why you want to stop cooperating with the Magic Industry Management Agency. Anyway, you don’t do this kind of thing that everyone can’t understand. It’s not once or twice. I’m used to it.”

“Oh? Really?” Xu Yi was a little surprised. “Since it wasn’t for this matter, then, my dear Queen, you came all the way to the Principality of Stantin to see me. What is it for?”

“Except for official business, can’t I come to you for personal matters?” Severini said in an angry manner.

“Private matter?” Xu Yi was even more puzzled. “Do you have any personal matters that need to come to me?”

“It’s because of the things in my territory, which can be said to be my personal affairs.” Servigny replied. “Last time, we said that you would help me build a small industrial base on the territory? I used to be the city lord of Bangta, and it was not convenient to do so. Now I have stepped down as the city lord for almost half a year. There shouldn’t be any problems with this, so let me ask when you plan to officially implement it?”

“Oh? This, it’s simple.” Xu Yi nodded and said with a relaxed expression: “Our Chamber of Commerce is already very adept at establishing industrial production bases. Your private domain is not large, and your people are not particularly large. There are not many facilities. I think it will be easy to build. But Servigny, it’s better to choose a focus for this industrial base. Have you thought about it?”

“Well, I have considered it very clearly. I don’t have too much resources in my private domain, and I must not be engaged in mineral processing or anything. And the number of people on it is really small, so the mechanical parts that require a lot of manpower. The processing plant is not good either. So I thought about it and decided that it would be better to do this. Look at…”

Sevigny pulled out a plan, and Xu Yi leaned over and glanced at it, and couldn’t help being taken aback.

“I said your Royal Highness… Are you planning to grab business from me?”

It turned out that in this plan, Servigny actually planned to transform her private domain into a huge fruit base, and then build a large fruit canning factory and fresh juice beverage factory in the domain.

At present, only the New Flying Business Association is involved in these two businesses. Other chambers of commerce feel that the profit margins of these two businesses are not high, so they have little interest.

Now that Severini suddenly decided to join these two industries, it was naturally equivalent to grabbing business from the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.

“How can this be considered a hard grab?” Severini’s face showed a slightly sly smile. “Don’t forget, you used to tell me that you shouldn’t let a lot of people come to grab the same piece of cake, but try to make this piece of cake bigger and better so that everyone who divides the cake can eat it. It’s full. I’m joining now, not to grab cakes with you.”

Xu Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head: “Well, tell me how to make this cake bigger? At present, the entire Lampari Kingdom is limited to the average living standard, and the demand for canned fruits and fresh juice has not increased much. And the demand in richer cities like Bangta City has long been saturated. We have been desperate to expand the market, but there is nothing we can do.”

“The Lampari Kingdom is saturated, so set your sights outside the Lampari Kingdom. Don’t you often do this?” Servigny asked rhetorically. “Don’t look at me like that, I know you want to say that your new flying business association is not qualified to sell this type of goods to other countries at will, but I am different. I am a prince and I still have this privilege.”

Xu Yi couldn’t help muttering: “Damn privilege.”

Seeing Xu Yi’s unconvinced expression, Severini couldn’t help laughing, but then sighed slightly.

“Who told you to voluntarily give up your noble status? And now you have unilaterally broken the contract and stopped cooperating with the Magic Industry Management Agency. Originally, your new Flying Chamber of Commerce was able to enjoy many privileges, but your decision this time angered you. Many big people in the kingdom, even me, can’t intercede for you.”

“I know you still can’t let go of this topic after all.” Xu Yi shook his head and sighed: “Well, since you still can’t help mentioning it, then I can explain it to you. The reason why I was before I would choose to cooperate with the Magic Industry Administration, one is because of the situation, and the other is because I have indeed had the idea of transferring technology to promote the development of the kingdom’s magic industry. I think you should be very clear about this.”

“Well, I know your wishes very well.” Servigny said with regret: “Unfortunately, Big Brother Eric and many people in the kingdom don’t understand your thoughts. In fact, even if they don’t persecute you in this way, you will sooner or later treat them. The technology was announced. I am very dissatisfied with the current practice which is no different from hard grabbing. I have protested to Big Brother Eric many times.”

“Thank you for your concern and help.” Xu Yi smiled and nodded. “However, these two points are not the main reason. The main reason that decided that I agreed to cooperate in the first place was actually just because our new flying business association was not ready yet.”

“Not ready?” Servigny slightly frowned and looked at Xu Yi in surprise. “So… are you ready now? That’s why you stopped this cooperative relationship so simply? Xu Yi, do you really understand the seriousness that this will bring? Do you know it, because you This decision has caused great losses to many nobles behind the ten chambers of commerce. Many powerful figures in the kingdom have already decided to take a tougher approach to your new flying chamber of commerce.”

“Tough?” Xu Yi smiled. “Do you think…they were very gentle in what they did before? Although they talk about cooperation, what is the difference between Mingqiu and Mingqiu?”

Sevigny fell silent for a while, and after a while, he sighed softly: “No matter what, Xu Yi, you are still too impulsive this time. I don’t know what you have prepared, but this time you are tantamount to offending the kingdom. For the most powerful people, your chamber of commerce in the kingdom will definitely become extremely difficult in the future, and it may even…cannot be opened anymore.”

“Really?” Xu Yi didn’t look nervous at all, spread his hands, shrugged, and said with great ease: “If you can’t do it, just don’t do it. If they feel that doing this is good for themselves and the whole Lampari If the kingdom is good, I have no objection.”

Servigny frowned deeply: “Xu Yi, what do you think? Isn’t the New Flying Chamber of Commerce created by you alone, is it your most cherished effort? Are you so willing to give up?”

“No, no, Servigny, I think you made a mistake.” Xu Yi shook his finger. “What I want to give up is not the New Flying Merchant Association, but the New Flying Merchant Association in the Kingdom of Lampari. Do you understand the difference?”

Servigny’s face became a little difficult to look.

“Are you really going to abandon the Kingdom of Lampari? No! You can’t do this! Xu Yi, don’t forget that the current prosperity of Bangta City was brought by you and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. You gave up With the foundation established in the Kingdom of Lampari, it is tantamount to giving up all the people of Bangta City!”

“You are too exaggerated. The New Flying Chamber of Commerce is just an ordinary chamber of commerce, and I am just an ordinary businessman. I can’t bear such a heavy responsibility. And when it comes to giving up…” Xu Yi let out a sneer. “His Royal Highness, compared to your giving up, this is nothing for me, am I?”

Servigny’s body trembled, and the expression that was originally a little excited became silent for a moment, and his face became a little gray.

After a long time, Servigny let out a long sigh.

“Xu Yi, you finally said what was in your heart. After all, you are still unwilling to give up fighting for the throne, right? You still have resentment towards me, right?”

Xu Yi slowly shook his head: “This statement is not accurate. It is true that I am not reconciled. After all, I have imagined many times before. Once you ascend to the throne, with your strong support for the magic industry, my dream will surely be as soon as possible. Achieved. But you simply gave up fighting for the throne. How could I be reconciled? But when it comes to resentment… it won’t be enough.”

“Really?”

“Really.” Xu Yi nodded seriously. “I said that no matter what decision is made, it is your own decision, and I have no right to interfere. If you really want to resent, there are many people in the kingdom that are far more qualified than me. But at this time, I can’t help but have a problem. I want to ask you. Servigny, do you really regret the original decision?”

A look of pain flashed across Severini’s face, and he struggled for a while, before shook his head gently, and sighed quietly: “I don’t know…”

“Don’t you really know?” Xu Yi asked back. “His Majesty, I’m afraid it’s just that you don’t want to face the reality, right? Now Bangta City has changed compared with the previous time when you were the lord of the city. If Bangta City can’t survive, what will Bangta City look like?”

The pained expression on Severini’s face became a bit deeper, and he struggled to retort: “I think…in any case, it will be much better than civil disturbance…”

Xu Yi sighed and shook his head, not wanting to continue discussing this matter.

After all, he and Servigny are in very different positions. In his opinion, if the Lampari Kingdom wants to be truly strong, it must change. And the most likely thing to bring about this change is to make Servigny Ascend to the throne and vigorously promote the development of the magic industry to improve the environment of the entire kingdom.

However, in Servigny’s view, she felt that it was the most important thing to keep the kingdom’s internal stability without civil strife.

Nor can it be said that her thoughts are wrong, but at least from the current point of view, after Eric ascended to the throne, the entire kingdom has fallen into the control of the stubborn old-school nobles who supported him ascending the throne before. .

The so-called support and promotion of the development of the magic industry have also been reduced to a means for them to amass wealth through the ten chambers of commerce.

It’s impossible for Severini to fail to see this fact, but she can’t do the kind of decisiveness Xu Yi expected.

Of course, if she really had this kind of personality, she would never give up fighting for the throne at all.

Comparing Severini with the Angcru who had only met a few days ago, Xu Yi couldn’t help sighing in his heart.

It would be perfect if you can neutralize the personalities of these two people.

Of course this is impossible. Xu Yi could only think about it for a while, and immediately gave up this illusion, looked at the sky outside, and got up from his seat.

“Well, let’s not talk about these meaningless things. Severini, time is almost up, let’s go out together. In this joint operation, nominally you are the commander-in-chief.”
