Magic Industry Empire - 618. Chapter 618
With the great assistance of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, Earl Willen continued his fierce offensive against the lords in the southern part of the Duchy of Stantin.
In a few months, Earl Veron not only completely defeated the four lords who united to resist him, but also defeated the three lords, and collected all of the vast territory of more than tens of thousands of square kilometers.
The current Earl of Willen has become the strongest lord in the Duchy of Stantin, not one of them.
The Principality of Stantin in the north was caught in the flames of war, and the south was not very peaceful either.
Angklu has been accumulating strength for the first few years. Although he has been constantly expanding his territory and increasing his strength, he has attracted a lot of attention in the southern part of the Duchy of Stantin, but compared to Lord Weilun, he has been considered extremely low-profile.
However, since entering the mainland calendar for 3785 years, Angklu has been uncharacteristically and has begun to develop in the south of the Duchy of Stantin.
In just the first half of the year, Angklu has more than doubled the area of his territory, and now the total area of the territory has exceeded 10,000 square kilometers.
Although he is not the largest lord in the southern territory of the Principality of Stantin, but in terms of strength, especially on the battlefield, no one dares to doubt that he is the most powerful one.
The reason is simple, because he has the full support of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
After signing the agreement with Lord Weilun, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce cut off the supply of military magic machinery to all lords except Lord Weilun and Angklu in the Principality of Stantin.
Without the supply of follow-up ammunition and the provision of maintenance, military magic machinery is naturally impossible to use for long.
At first, other lords could use their inventory to compete with Lord Velon and Angklu, but after a period of time, after their military magic machines were unable to exert their combat power, other lords attacked Lord Velon and Angklu. There is no army, and there is no ability to resist at all.
Everyone knew in their hearts that the key to the victory or defeat of the war between the lords of the Principality of Stantin was the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
To put it more bluntly, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has even been able to completely control the development of the situation in the Principality of Stantin.
After realizing this, many people naturally cannot sit still anyway.

“Know-now-know-now-”
There are many places on Sainz continent that are completely different from the earth, but there are also some places that are the same.
Summer Ticada is one of them.
Every summer, when he heard the cicada’s sound that he had been familiar with since childhood, Xu Yi always felt a sense of intimacy in his heart.
It has been eight years since I came to this world. Although I have already adapted to life in this world, married and had children, and started a family in this world, Xu Yi still misses everything on earth frequently.
Hearing the sound of cicadas, he seemed to be back when he was still on the earth when he was a child. Every summer, he and his friends would hold the homemade nets, and the happy time of chasing butterflies and cicadas over the mountains and plains.
This summer was still hot, Xu Yi was busy taking a leisurely stroll, riding in the shade of the trees in the backyard of the manor, listening to the cicadas on the top of his head, thinking of the time in the past on earth, suddenly a childlike heart, let Linda find one A fine net and a piece of iron wire, and then a branch of the right thickness is cut off from the tree, and a dipping net is skillfully made.
“Hey, Freya, Dad will take you to catch butterflies, okay to catch cicadas?” Xu Yixiang asked Freya, who had been by his side staring intently at his netting, and asked with a smile.
Freya is over two years old. Although she is still at an age of ignorance, she can run and jump, and she speaks very smoothly. Hearing Xu Yi’s question, she looked up at the net in Xu Yi’s hand. , Naisheng asked in an annoyed manner: “Dad, why do you want to catch butterflies and cicadas?”
Xu Yi squatted down with a smile, squeezed Freya’s fleshy face, and asked: “Freya, do you think the butterfly looks good?”
“Well, the butterfly is best seen.”
“Well, do you want to get closer and see why the butterfly is so beautiful?” Xu Yi asked again.
“Think, dad, can you call the butterflies over and let me take a good look at them?”
“Of course you can. Come, follow Dad, and I will take you to chat with the butterflies!”
If it were in a normal climate, it would be mid-August, and there would be no trace of butterflies.
However, due to its location in the southern part of the mainland, the Principality of Stantin has always had a hot climate. In addition, Xu Yi’s private domain is near the sea and the air is humid. At this time, there are still countless butterflies flying around.
Xu Yi headed into the small woods next to the manor with the cheerful Freya, and at a glance, he could see several colorful butterflies flying back and forth in the woods.
Freya cheered and rushed over, but it was shocked that the butterflies were flying everywhere in the air. Xu Yi stretched the net into the air and easily caught several butterflies.
Xu Yi carefully picked off a butterfly and put it into Freya’s palm. The magic flow in his body formed a small cyclone near Freya’s palm, just pressing the butterfly on Freya’s palm. Make it impossible to fly away.
With a surprised look on her face, Freya cautiously held the butterfly in her hands, looked around for a while, but suddenly raised her head and asked Xu Yi: “Dad, why doesn’t it fly?”
Xu Yi was a little strange: “Don’t you want to chat with Butterfly? It’s in your hands now. Wouldn’t it be nice for you to have fun with it for a while?”
Freya shook her head: “But I just liked the way it flies. It won’t look good to stop like this.” As he said, he looked at the wet net in Xu Yi’s hand and pointed to the butterfly stuck on it and said: “Dad , Put them down too, they are so pitiful.”
Xu Yi glanced at Freya in surprise and couldn’t help laughing.
Although Freya is only two years old, she is a kind-hearted girl, and this is precisely what he values most.
Xu Yi took off the butterflies one by one according to Freya’s instructions, and released them all again.
Seeing the swarms of butterflies flying in the woods, Freya laughed happily again, and ran back and forth in the woods with small steps, as if full of vitality.
Seeing Freya’s happy look, Xu Yi also felt that his whole body became happy.
During this period of time, he was very busy because of the various problems in the Black Rice Wasteland and the internal situation of the Principality of Stantin. Now playing with Freya for a while is simply the best relaxation.
When she was about to take Freya to continue deep into the forest, Lisi, who had been guarding the outside of the forest, leaving Xu Yi and Freya a separate space for them, suddenly rushed over.
“Master, a guest is here.”
Seeing the slightly nervous look on Lisi’s face, Xu was also a little strange.
“What kind of guest?”
“It was brought here by the chief executive officer, saying that it was an emissary sent by Grand Duke Stantin.”
“Duke Stanting sent it?” Xu Yi was startled, but then laughed. “Yes, this grand prince shouldn’t be able to bear it anymore.”
After handing Freya to Lisi, Xu Yi went straight to the front yard and saw Kennard and the envoy sent by Grand Duke Stanting in the meeting room.
The three messengers were all acquaintances of Xu Yi.
They are the three ministers of the Prince Stantin whom Xu Yi has contacted since he first came to the Principality of Stantin.
Over the years, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has invested a total of at least two million gold coins in their bodies, feeding them all to the full. When they saw Xu Yi, they were naturally very polite.
After the two sides smiled and greeted each other, Xu Yi asked how many people came here suddenly.
The three glanced at each other, and one of the fat ministers replied with a smile: “President Xu, no, Viscount Xu, we are here this time to report good news to you.”
“Good news?” Xu Yi said. “What’s the good news?”
The chubby minister laughed and said, “Viscount Xu, in view of the contributions you and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce have made to the Duchy of Stantin that cannot be ignored, the Grand Duke has decided to promote your title from Viscount to Earl. In other words, from today onwards. , We are about to call you Earl Xu.”
Kennard on the side looked surprised.
He came from a noble family, and he valued his noble status very much. He had always been distressed by Xu Yi’s low title because he himself actually had a baronship in the Kingdom of Lampari.
If Xu Yi has not had a knighthood, it is equivalent to him, the Baron of the Lampari Kingdom, thinking that he is a commoner.
Although no one would really treat Xu Yi as an ordinary civilian, the distinction of identity here would make him feel a little grudge.
Now Xu Yi has been promoted to an earl, even if the earl status is given by Grand Duke Stantin, it is naturally far from the earl of the Lampari Kingdom, but as long as Xu Yi has a suitable noble status, that is enough.
Xu Yi had a calm face, smiled, and nodded to understand.
The three envoys looked at each other again, and the fat minister took out a drawing from his arms and spread it out in front of Xu Yi.
“Xu Hui…no, Viscount Xu…oh no, Earl Xu, since your title has been promoted, then according to the rules, your territory should also be expanded accordingly. After research, the Grand Duke finally decided to transfer this piece of land. Canonized as your territory, do you find it satisfactory?”
Xu Yi’s gaze followed the fat minister’s fingers across this extremely low-precision map of the Principality of Stantin, and after reading the territory newly granted to him by the Principality of Stantin, he immediately sneered in his heart.
The territory granted by Archduke Stanting to Xu Yi is a large piece extending downward from his previous territory of only 24 square kilometers, and at first glance it is indeed enlarged several times.
But if you look at it carefully, you will find that this new territory belongs to the new territory now occupied by Earl Weilun.
If Xu Yi accepted this territory, it would be equivalent to grabbing it from Earl Weilun.
Archduke Stantin was obviously deliberate, and he did so undoubtedly to destroy the existing cooperative relationship between the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and Earl Willen.
Obviously, Grand Duke Stantin has already become afraid of Earl Welen’s strength.
To destroy the cooperative relationship between the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and Earl Veron is to fundamentally defeat Earl Veron.
This is a very low-level trap, not to mention Xu Yi, Kennard next to him also saw it at a glance, with a sneer on his face.
Based on his understanding of Xu Yi, Xu Yi is definitely not limited to such a low-level trap.
However, after Xu Yi was silent for a while, he smiled and said, “Thank you Grand Duke for his gift. I want this territory.”
Kennard looked surprised, but the three messengers were all smiles.
Xu Yi also looked at the three with a smile on his face, as if he didn’t even know the danger in it.
