Magic Industry Empire - 767. Chapter 767

Xu Yi’s ideals are very full, but the reality shows him a naked skinny.

For the laying of the magic signal tower, according to the plan, the first step is to set up and expand on Xu Yi’s private territory. This is considered as a kind of promotion. At the same time, it can be regarded as Xu Yi’s private territory as an experimental base to facilitate all aspects of testing. And further research.

When this step has reached a certain level, the next step is to extend the erection of the magic signal tower to the entire Duchy of Stantin and incorporate the entire duchy into the magic network conceived by Xu Yi.

However, the first step did not encounter any obstacles, but at the beginning of the second step, it encountered very big obstacles.

The New Flying Chamber of Commerce first negotiated with another aristocratic lord of the Principality of Stantin near Xu Yi’s private domain, intending to lay the magic signal tower in his private domain, and expand the magic network built by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.

However, when negotiating with the noble lord, the idea proposed by the New Flying Merchants Association was flatly rejected by the noble lord.

This surprised Xu Yi very much.

This noble lord, because his private realm is very close to the New Flying Merchants Association, has long established an extremely deep cooperative relationship with the New Flying Merchants Association, and has gained a lot of benefits from this cooperative relationship.

Prior to this, he had absolutely no objection to any request made by the New Flying Business Association and absolutely complied with it. However, during this negotiation, he showed an unusually strong attitude and did not leave any possibility for further negotiation. No matter what, it is impossible to agree to the new flying business association to erect a magic signal tower on his private territory.

His fierce reaction made everyone in the New Flying Chamber of Commerce very strange. Xu Yi even went to meet the noble lord personally for this matter, and explained to him the role of the magic signal tower and the construction of the magic network for improving the lives of the people. The level of great help, but still did not let him have the slightest meaning to relax.

In the end, because of his unusual persistence, the New Flying Merchants Association was forced to temporarily abandon his private realm as the first expansion target, and instead negotiate with another aristocratic lord on the border with Xu Yi’s private realm.

However, in addition, this noble lord actually showed the same resolute attitude as the previous noble lord, and also said that in any case he would not agree with the new flying business association to erect a magic signal tower on his private domain.

If only one noble lord showed such a different attitude from the past, it can be regarded as a special consideration for personal matters, but now there are two noble lords showing such a strange attitude at the same time, which cannot but arouse promise. Also pay attention.

When he asked his hand to contact another aristocratic lord and received a mild but equally resolute attitude of rejection, Xu Yi finally understood that the obstacle he encountered now was probably not a mere case.

Facts proved Xu Yi’s inference.

Next, the Akali R&D team cooperated with the public relations personnel of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce to communicate with more than a dozen aristocratic spirits in the Principality of Stantin, but the answer was no exception.

Such a strange situation naturally makes everyone who knows this matter feel strange.

Why do these noble lords in the Principality of Stantin would rather take the risk of offending the New Flying Merchants Association, and so strongly oppose such a proposal that does no harm to them, but will vigorously promote the convenience of the people in their territories Woolen cloth?

Xu Yi was very curious about this, but the reasons for rejection given by the noble lords were strange and strange.

The erection of the magic signal tower is implemented in the private realm of these noble lords, so if you want to fully lay it out, you must get the vigorous cooperation of these noble lords.

Now they put on a posture of completely uncooperative, Xu Yiyi had nothing to do for a while.

However, compared to the inexplicable rejection of erecting the magic signal tower, Xu Yi was more concerned about the real reason behind these noble lords’ rejection of themselves.

Before contacting the Congress, he initiated a proposal to the Congress, demanding a new private territory, but was opposed by more than half of the members of Congress and finally had to give up. Xu Yi suddenly discovered that he, or the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, had an influence in the Principality of Stantin. Probably not as big as he had imagined before.

As for the control of the entire Principality of Stantin, it is even more evident through these two things-that is, there is not much control at all in essence.

This makes Xu Yi feel a little disappointed.

He originally thought that the emergence of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has brought about a substantial improvement in the lives of all citizens in the Principality of Stantin, and almost everyone benefited from it. All the actions of the Chamber of Commerce support it.

But the ruthless facts told him that he took it for granted.

“Your kid is going to be thirty-five years old this year? Why are you still as innocent as a kid?” Camilla Magister frowned and glanced at Xu Yi, shook his head. “The kindness alone can certainly make others appreciate you, but you have to figure out one thing. Gratitude is grateful, obedience and obedience are two different things. Others may be grateful for you to agree to some things you do, but if When it comes to their own private interests, they will of course choose to protect their private interests first, and how can they blindly obey you.”

“But… I ask for the increase of private territory, which will affect the private interests of other people. Their opposition is fair enough, but what is the impact of helping them to posture the magic signal tower? Why are they so resolutely opposed?” Xu Yi said in a puzzled manner.

“You don’t want to study magic more often, you kid, do you know that there is a problem now?” Camilla Sorceress snorted softly.

Xu Yi scratched his head inexplicably: “What does this have to do with letting me study more magic? Wouldn’t they allow me to help them erect a magic signal tower if I study more magic?”

“No, it can’t.” Camilla Magister shook his head. “But if you spend more time studying magic, you will know an allusion in a magician circle, and you won’t be surprised that they oppose the erection of a magic signal tower.”

Xu Yi was stunned: “What allusion?”

“It’s more than two thousand years ago.” Camilla mage cleared his throat and slowed down his voice: “About two to three thousand years ago, humans just grabbed the entire continent from the Elves. Controlling power was not long. Because the humans at that time mainly relied on the magic learned from the elves to finally defeat the elves. Therefore, there were not only many magicians at the time, but also very powerful. At that time, the most powerful magicians were Human beings are the leaders who do their part, and for their own notice, these powerful magicians will erect magic towers within their control…”

Through the explanation of Camilla Magister, Xu Yi finally understood.

It turned out that more than two thousand years ago, those powerful magicians could easily control all the humans within the magic tower’s influence, even other races, through the powerful fluctuations of magic power emitted by the magic towers they erected.

Because these magicians were not all kind-hearted people, the human society at that time was actually completely ruled by these powerful magicians using magic towers, and they became private things they could drive at will, and their lives were no better than before. How much better is the elves ruling this continent, and even worse.

Although later with the progress and development of human society, this model of ruling human society through powerful magicians was finally completely broken and became a human kingdom like the one it is now, but the shadow of the magic tower has always remained in people’s minds. In memory.

The magic signal tower that the New Flying Chamber of Commerce wants to set up is completely different from the magic tower in terms of function and function, but it is not surprising that it was rejected by everyone because of the shadow it left behind.

Xu Yi understands the scrupulous thoughts of other noble lords, but this still makes him a little bit dumbfounded.

“Is there any mistake? The magic signal tower and the magic tower are completely different things, okay? Are they too cautious?”

“Any prudence is excusable when it may threaten one’s own rule.” The Camilla Magister faintly spit out a famous saying on the continent of Sainz.

Xu Yi shook his head helplessly: “What should I do? Do I force the noble lords to erect magic signal towers? If I really want to do this, I might as well send the Chamber of Commerce guards to destroy them all. .”

“This is also a good way.” The Camilla Magister shrugged, then took a look at Xu Yi who was surprised, and nodded again with certainty. “Don’t doubt, I’m serious.”

Xu Yi frowned slightly: “Grandpa, are you encouraging me?”

“No, I am suggesting you seriously.” Camilla Magister said solemnly. “I’ve long wanted to talk to you about this issue. I very much agree with your ideal of using magic machinery to improve the lives of ordinary people, but I have always felt that your approach is very problematic.”

“What’s the problem?” Xu Yi asked, wonderingly.

“You are too indecisive. Obviously you have the ability to control the entire Principality of Stantin completely in your own hands, but you have to insist on creating such a messy parliamentary management model. I am not saying that this model is not good, but you did not find out. This model has caused many of your ideas and practices to be implemented in the Principality of Stantin, will they encounter a lot of trouble?”

Xu Yi was silent for a moment, and nodded slightly: “I found out. But…this is my attempt. I don’t want it, and it’s not suitable for being a king.”

“No, I don’t want you to be a king, and your kid is indeed not this material. I just want to remind you, Xu Yi, that your responsibility now is far greater than you think. You must change this thinking. , Become tougher. Indecision and procrastination will only make many things more difficult, and even make you farther and farther away from your ideals.”

Having said that, Camilla Magister patted Xu Yi’s shoulder hard, with a solemn expression.

“Xu Yi, I agree with your ideals and hope you can truly realize your ideals. But for this, you must understand this truth.”

Xu Yi fell silent, lowered his head slightly, looked at the ground, and said nothing for a long while.

The Sorceress Camilla didn’t urge him, but just watched quietly.

After a while, Xu Yi took a deep breath, and when he raised his head again, the half-dead confusion and doubt in his eyes disappeared, and they became extremely firm and bright.

“Yes, Grandpa, I understand, I know what I should do.”

Camilla Sorceress smiled and nodded.

He understands Xu Yi and thinks that Xu Yi is the smartest person he has ever seen in his life. Since he can understand and make up his mind, there are many things that he does not need to say any more.

“Okay, Xu Yi, no matter what you decide to do, remember that I, Camilla Magister, will definitely help you with all my strength!”

“thanks.”
