Magic Industry Empire - 947. Chapter 947

“Xu Yi…Although I know your thoughts have always been different before, this time…” Servigny frowned slightly, looking at Xu Yi’s gaze with deep puzzlement. “But this time… Isn’t it too different?”

“You can just say that I’m crazy just like everyone else.” Xu Yi spread his hands and smiled lightly: “It’s not the first time I’ve been said this anyway.”

“Of course you have been used to it.” Severini gave him a white look. “But I still can’t understand, why did you make this decision?”

“Is it hard to understand?”

“当然很难理解了！”看到许亦依然一脸轻松的样子，瑟维尼似乎有些动怒。“军用魔法机械是这么重要的东西，结果你现在居然承诺要让其它国家也掌握制造军用魔法机械的方法，这让我怎么理解？你就这么喜欢把这些对于自己来说十分重要的东西随便送给别人吗？不说这次的军用魔法机械制造技术，之前的水泥、各种家用魔法机械的制造技术等等……都是这样！这样做很好玩吗？”

许亦对瑟维尼突如其来的激烈反应有些意外，惊讶地看了她一眼，反问道：“瑟维尼，之前通过这些受益最大的……可是兰帕里王国啊……”

“所以我对你以前的决定很高兴，但是这一次，我很不高兴！”瑟维尼一脸严肃地道。“而且这一次你打算转让的军用魔法机械制造技术比起之前的任何一样东西都重要得多，你在这样做之前，有没有考虑过我们兰帕里王国的立场，有没有考虑过我的想法？”

许亦忍不住挠了挠头，心中满是不解。

瑟维尼说这句话时的语气和口吻未免有些奇怪……

“这个……瑟维尼，我虽然决定让这片大陆上的其它国家也同样掌握军用魔法机械的制造技术，但是却对他们提出了先提条件，就是他们必须具备一定的工业基础才行。这个所谓的工业基础，还是要由我们新飞商会来判定的，并且还是分了等级。每到一定的等级，我们才会向他们公开一定的技术资料。这一点你应该很清楚啊？”

“我当然知道。可是这样做终究还是让其它国家也能够掌握军用魔法机械不是吗？一般的小国家还好，如果让玛洛帝国和坎德拉帝国这样的大帝国也掌握了相关的技术，你觉得会怎样？”瑟维尼反问道。

“不会怎么样。”许亦摇摇头。“打造一定的工业基础和创建完整的工业体系绝不是那么容易的事情，这一点你比其他都要清楚。也就是说，就算其它国家选择加入这个计划，也绝不可能在军用魔法机械方面超越兰帕里王国，不可能威胁到你们。”

“Really?” Severini let out a soft sigh. After a moment of silence, she smiled again and nodded to Xu Yi: “Well, I know that your long-term ideal is to use the magic industry to change this. A continent has improved the lives of everyone on the continent because of the magic industry. Your current approach is not wrong, but Xu Yi, have you ever thought that this is actually not efficient?”

“Not efficient?” Xu Yi was startled. “What’s the meaning?”

“Although all other countries on the continent are very interested in military magic machinery, you use this to lure them to vigorously develop the domestic magic industry, there must be many countries to support. But each country’s strength is different, and the plan is to cooperate with this. The determination is not the same. I am afraid that in the end, half of the countries are really willing to invest enough manpower and funds on it.”

“I gave them the opportunity to choose. If they don’t want to, then I can’t help it.” Xu Yi shrugged, spreading his hands and said, “But if they are eliminated by the world because they are behind, that’s it. I can’t blame it.”

“If this is the case, then why don’t you directly choose a country to fully support it, relying on the powerful advantages of the current military magic machinery to unify the entire continent, and then naturally you can use the trend to promote the magic industry?”

Xu Yi looked at Sevigny in amazement: “Are you talking about yourself?”

Servigny nodded without any hesitation.

“Yes. Xu Yi, our Lampari Kingdom now has a very good foundation for the magic industry. As long as you provide more support, we can create a complete magic industry system very easily. If you are willing to If military magic machinery gives us more support, I believe we can easily defeat these surrounding countries and successfully develop the magic industry in these surrounding countries. If we give us enough time, we will finally unify the entire continent. It’s not impossible.”

Xu Yi stared at Severini for a while and couldn’t help but frown slightly.

“Severini, you are the Queen of the Lampari Kingdom. From your standpoint, it is normal to have this idea. But if I really intend to do this, the Maro Empire is actually far better than the Lampari Kingdom. There are so many choices, isn’t it?”

“But the relationship between the Marlow Empire and you and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce is far less profound than that between us.” Servigny smiled.

“No, relationships can be cultivated. I believe the Marlow Empire will be very willing to cultivate this relationship with us.” Xu Yi still shook his head.

Seeing that Sevigny was still talking, Xu Yi raised her hand to block her next words, and said with a serious face: “Sevigny, I understand your thoughts, and in fact, I have had this idea before…”

“Then why don’t you want to do this?” Servigny couldn’t help but asked.

“Because… After serious consideration, I found that this approach is actually very inefficient.” Xu Yi said solemnly.

“Why?” Servigny was puzzled. “As long as you are willing to fully support us, with the strength of military magic machinery, no country on the battlefield can withstand us, and there is no difficulty in conquering other countries.”

“You think too much…” Xu Yi shook his head. “Severini, you are the queen of the Kingdom of Lampari, so you know better than anyone. Tell me, how much money did the Kingdom of Lampari spend in this war between the Kingdom of Lampari and the Kingdom of Sark?”

Servigny was startled, his expression changed several times, and finally he whispered in a slightly sullen voice: “According to the statistics of the Department of Finance, the total is about 4.7 million gold coins.”

“You see, this war only lasted less than a month, and the process has been very smooth, but a full 4.7 million gold coins have been spent. If it is a larger war, the duration will be even longer. For a long time, how much do you think it will cost?” Xu Yi asked.

Servigny frowned and retorted unconvincedly: “But we can still get enough compensation from the Kingdom of Sark, and with other gains, the final income will far exceed the 4.7 million gold coins spent. In general, this is still a profit. Is there anything wrong with this?”

“But you have to invest a lot in the seven cities you received from the Kingdom of Sark? Tell me, if you count the investment, do you still dare to make a profit?”

Servigny didn’t answer in silence, and he pondered for a moment and then said: “Xu Yi, I don’t understand how your question has anything to do with what I said before.”

“It’s a big deal.” Xu Yi said in a serious tone. “With the current strength of the Lampari Kingdom, it would be so difficult even to completely conquer a Sark Kingdom. It would be so difficult to conquer the entire continent… How long do you think it will take?”

Servigny could only be silent again.

She was very clear, and Xu Yi made a very reasonable point.

Although there is no shortage of countries in the history of Sainz that conquered the entire continent by pure force, such countries are all short-lived and cannot last for long.

And even for such a country, it has taken many generations of precipitation for hundreds of years to have such a powerful strength, which is by no means an overnight success.

Although the Kingdom of Lampari has been established for hundreds of years, it has always been an extremely poor and weak country with no such background.

Even though the powerful military magic machinery developed by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce can give them an absolute advantage on the frontal battlefield, war will never only determine everything on the frontal battlefield. What is really important is things outside the battlefield.

Such as logistical supplies, such as the external political environment, such as…

It may be okay to win one or two games, but if you want to win more battles in a row and eventually conquer other countries, it is not just a matter that can be solved by military magic machinery.

“I know… Our Lampari Kingdom is too weak compared to other countries on the mainland. It is impossible to give you and the New Flying Merchants Association a very good support like the Malo Empire, but Xu Yi, you really wait like that. Sorry?” Servigny sighed leisurely.

Xu Yi showed a bitter smile, lowered his head for a moment, and took two steps to come to Servigny, put his hands on her shoulders, stared into Servigny’s eyes, and said in a deep voice: “Severini, if you have to If I choose a country on Sainz Continent to fully support, I will definitely choose the Lampari Kingdom, not for anything else, just because you are now the Queen of the Lampari Kingdom.”

Servigny trembled slightly, and a hazy mist of water clouded his eyes.

“Then why are you…”

“But as I said just now, it takes too long to realize my ideals by relying on the Kingdom of Lampari alone. I can’t wait. Even if I can break through the limit and become a magister, my life will be short. More than a year, but now almost one third has passed. So in the remaining two-thirds of the time, I must hurry up and try my best to promote this ideal as soon as possible. Can you…can you understand me? ”

Seeing Xu Yi’s sincere gaze, and feeling the warm breath exhaled from Xu Yi’s nostrils because of the close distance, Severini’s eyes became more blurred.

After a long silence, Servigny nodded slowly.

“Well, since this is your decision, then I won’t say anything.”

“So… let’s talk about it today. You seem to be in a bad mood today. Pay more attention to rest. I’ll go back first.” Xu Yi put down his hands and left to Severini.

Servigny didn’t stop him, but stared at Xu Yi’s leaving back for a long while, and then murmured in his mouth when he walked far away.

“Fool, do you know that I myself have no interest in the strength of the Lampari Kingdom at all. All of this is for you… and your children?”
