Magic Industry Empire - 683
When Director Gnar was worried about the decision of the Principality of Norton, Xu Yi, who was two thousand kilometers away, had just moved his eyes from the Principality of Norton on the map, with a relaxed expression.
Although the Principality of Norton had given up on cooperating with the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, he was disappointed, but he didn’t think this was a big problem.
The development of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce cannot always be smooth sailing, and according to Xu Yi’s own ideas, it is always necessary to leave a certain amount of development space for other Magic Machinery Chambers.
The Principality of Norton took the initiative to choose the Anke Magic Chamber of Commerce to cooperate, which did not go against his original wishes, and even made him even more gratified.
His gaze continued to move on the map, and after a brief pause on the Duchy of Mirando, he stopped at the location of the Kingdom of Ruelson.
Looking at the dozens of small black dots marked on the map, Xu Yi stroked his chin, lost in thought.
The cooperation between Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Kingdom of Ruelson has been very smooth.
With the strong support of King Trutz, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has been able to successfully obtain approval whether it directly invests in the Ruelson Kingdom to establish a factory or establishes a joint venture with the local chamber of commerce, and it has never encountered official obstacles.
Now the new flying chamber of commerce can be said to be blooming everywhere in the Ruelson Kingdom, and all kinds of new flying card magic machines are sold everywhere.
Only nine months have passed this year. The combined income of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce in the Ruelson Kingdom alone has reached more than five million gold coins, which is even higher than the income of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce in the Kingdom of Lampari. There is not much difference.
Of course, there are also joint venture factories in the Lampari Kingdom by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, and the interests need to be divided by the Lampari Kingdom.
However, in such a large-scale cooperation situation, there is a problem that has always plagued Xu Yi.
Regardless of any cooperation between the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and the Kingdom of Ruelson, King Trutz’s strong support will be obtained. However, the only cooperation in which Xu Yi is always not satisfied is the transaction of mineral resources.
The only territory that the New Flying Chamber of Commerce can fully control now is the Duchy of Stantin.
However, the Principality of Stantin is not large in size and has limited mineral resources.
With the ever-expanding production scale of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and the ever-increasing demand for magic machinery from the outside world, the mineral resources of the Principality of Stantin will obviously not be able to keep up with the consumption of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
Therefore, Xu Yi has been purchasing large quantities of various mineral resources from other surrounding countries.
Among them, the Kingdom of Lampari is the one that provides the most various mineral resources to the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
Just last month, according to statistics, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce purchased a full 730,000 tons of iron ore and 480,000 tons of other non-ferrous metal ore from the Falcao Chamber of Commerce.
The land area of the Ruelson Kingdom and the Lampari Kingdom is almost the same. According to the exploration, the mineral resources even slightly won. The New Flying Chamber of Commerce only purchased only 160,000 tons of iron ore from the Ruelson Kingdom last month. The non-ferrous metal ore was only purchased for less than 10,000 tons.
Xu Yi once mentioned this to King Trutz many times, hoping to increase the share of various ores sold by the Ruelson Kingdom, but King Trutz has been vaguely dealt with the past, and never gave Xu Yi one to let them. Satisfactory answer.
Even Xu also claimed that one or two steel smelting plants and non-ferrous metal smelting plants could be opened directly in the Ruelson Kingdom, local mining and local smelting, and only processing and selling within the Ruelson Kingdom, still failed to impress Trutz. king.
After repeated attempts to no avail, Xu Yi had no choice but to give up and turn to other channels to find a solution.
Previously, Nievar led the new flying fleet to Nissi City, trying to purchase all kinds of minerals through private channels, and it was for this reason.
However, after discussing with Elder Wendini last time, through cooperation with the Azshara tribe, King Trutz is very likely to let go of this aspect, which makes Xu Yi feel a lot easier.
But in the final analysis, if the New Flying Business Association wants to continue to develop, the most important thing is to master more resources in its own hands.
I always hope to obtain mineral resources from other countries, and I can’t help but feel like my lifeline is being held in the hands of others.
Xu Yi didn’t like this feeling very much, so he was always looking for a solution.
After staring at the Ruelson Kingdom for a while, he turned to the north and skipped the Lampari Kingdom directly, but stayed in the position of the Sark Kingdom.
Seeing the kingdom of Sark displayed on the map which is at least one third larger than the kingdom of Lampari, and then looking at the dozens of black dots marked on it, Xu Yi’s gaze couldn’t help but change. Get hot.
It is almost impossible to cooperate with the Kingdom of Sark, so in order to obtain a large amount of resources in the Kingdom of Sark, apart from buying some in a small range through private channels, there is only the only way left, and that is to completely conquer. this country.
As for how to completely conquer…but you have to think about it…
“Tuk-tuk-”
A slight knock on the door pulled Xu Yi back from his thoughts.
“Is it Betty? Come in.” Xu Yiyang said.
The door opened, and Betty, wearing a standard maid attire, walked in slowly, first gave Xu Yi a standard etiquette, and then whispered: “Mr. President, there are guests asking for a meeting.”
“Oh? What guest? Did he say who he is?” Xu Yi glanced across Betty’s maid outfit, and asked with a smile.
After Betty and Kahlo came here, they saw that both Lis and Linda were pregnant and were unable to move, and Xu Yi and Steele were unwilling to recruit more servants, so they both automatically became maids. Responsibilities.
Since the two of them have undergone rigorous training in the Lampari Palace, they are extremely skilled in this aspect of work.
So they have only been here for more than two months, and they have cleaned up the entire manor up and down in order, and they have won praise from everyone.
However, out of a trace of grievances and concerns in his heart, Xu Yi has never given them a clear identity like Lisi and Linda.
Betty and Kahlo didn’t complain about it either. On the contrary, they seemed very happy every day, and repeatedly stated that staying here is much easier than staying in the palace.
“He called himself Leslie Stark, and he said… and he told the president to see him as soon as possible. He doesn’t have much time.”
When Betty said this, her expression was a little weird.
I have been here for more than two months, and have received many guests who came to visit Xu Yi, but no matter what kind of guests they behaved when they asked for a meeting, they all behaved extremely politely. No one has ever been so arrogant.
However, Xu Yi didn’t look surprised. Instead, he smiled and said, “It’s him. Let me just say, he should have appeared long ago when we heard the news that our fleet had arrived in Nissi City.”
Betty curiously followed Xu Yi, left the study, went to the living room, and saw again the young man in his thirties who was sitting in a chair, looking lazy, as if he didn’t regard himself as a guest at all.
“Hey, Leslie, why are you so dark?” Xu Yi glanced at Leslie up and down and couldn’t help laughing. “Before you were a standard little white face, but now it suddenly turned into a black charcoal, and let those noble ladies and wives see it. Wouldn’t you be very disappointed?”
The skin turned into a healthy bronze color, and Leslie, who was completely different from the paleness of the previous noble children, laughed.
“I told you a long time ago that those noble ladies and wives mainly look at their faces. Believe it or not, even if I become like this, if they see it, they will scream in surprise?”
Xu Yi smiled and shook his head: “I believe it. Okay, don’t talk nonsense, tell me, where have you been during this time? Look at you like this, if I guessed correctly, you should have gone. maritime?”
“You really didn’t guess wrong.” Leslie laughed. “I have been wandering in the sea for more than half a year, and this has become so dark.”
Xu Yi glanced at Leslie with a strange expression.
“Hey, don’t you really want to be a pirate, do you?”
“It’s okay to be a pirate.” Leslie shrugged, and then reached out to Xu Yi. “Okay, do you agree to my ship? I heard that the fleet organized by your new flying merchants sailed more than 2,000 kilometers on the sea and successfully arrived in the Ruelson Kingdom from the Duchy of Stantin. You have this technology, agree. The boat for me shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
Xu Yi looked down at Leslie’s outstretched hand and tapped with a finger.
“The ship is okay, but what about your money? The cost of a large magic ship that can drive from here to the Ruelson Kingdom is more than two million gold coins. Our Chamber of Commerce has only built three ships so far. Are you sure you can? Take out two million gold coins?”
“Two million gold coins?” Leslie was startled. “Hey, Xu Yi, are you scaring me? It’s just a boat, so expensive?”
Xu Yi smiled: “It seems that you haven’t seen the three ships with your own eyes. No wonder you will ask this question. I can guarantee that if you see it with your own eyes, you will definitely not ask such stupid questions again.”
Leslie frowned, not angry, but was silent for a moment, spread his hands, and said calmly: “Well, I really can’t take out two million gold coins in one breath. But Xu Yi, since you can make If you go out of a big ship, you must be able to build a smaller ship? Hmm… I need to be bigger than the magic assault boat… Four or five times bigger than that. Just such a big ship, I want to be enough for me You can rampage at sea any way you want.”
Xu Yi slowly shook his head: “No, Leslie. The emergence of the large magic ship of our New Flying Chamber of Commerce, which means that the previous era of being able to run wild on the sea with only a few broken wooden ships is over. I sincerely I advise you, it’s best to use a big ship directly, because only a big ship can make you safer at sea.”
Leslie frowned: “I said, Xu Yi, are you deliberately pissing me off? I obviously can’t pay that much, but you have to recommend me a big boat that I can’t afford. In fact, you simply I can’t make it for the time being, so I’m deliberately shitting, right?”
“That’s not the case. I have the boat. If you don’t have enough money, I can give it to you. But well…”
“Why? Want to take advantage of me?” Seeing the slightly weird smile on Xu Yi’s face, Leslie smiled, slowed down, leaned comfortably on the back of the chair, and said to Xu Yi in time: “Okay. I can be used by you, but it also depends on what price you offer.”
Xu Yi couldn’t help rolling his eyes.
“It’s so awkward to talk about using it. This is cooperation. Do you understand cooperation?”
Leslie sneered, “Okay, does it make any difference? Come on, what do you want me to do?”
Xu Yi turned his head and glanced at Betty who was standing by.
Betty knew immediately, bowed to the two of them, and walked out.
Seeing Xu Yi taking the matter so solemnly, Leslie put away his relaxed expression, sat up straight, and looked at Xu Yi.
Xu Yi coughed lightly and said solemnly: “Leslie, I don’t object to you wanting to be a pirate, but if you run to be a pirate like this without foundation, you are simply dying.”
“What then? What do you think?”
Xu Yi smiled, showing a seductive smile.
“In fact, our new flying chamber of commerce escort is about to form an armed fleet, are you interested?”
