Chapter 29 Who Is the Successor?

About an hour later, the magic car carrying the Grand Duke Galbut slowly drove into the gate of the No. 1 steelmaking plant in Wimbledon.

A group of people who had been looking forward to it for more than two hours hurriedly greeted them, all with smiles on their faces, but they didn't dare to show the slightest expression of impatience because they had waited too long.

The first person to greet him was not the director of the No. 1 Steel Plant, nor any leader of the No. 1 Steel Plant, but the Marquis Askend, the current head of the Magic Industry Management Department of the Candela Empire.

The commemorative event of Wimbledon No. 1 Steelworks originally did not need him, the Marquis, who is so powerful and popular in the entire Candela Empire, to come in person, but after learning that the Grand Duke Galbut After everyone would participate, he decided to participate without hesitation.

So with the participation of two big figures, he and the Grand Duke Galbut, this commemorative event quickly became the most important event in the city of Wimbledon, and even in the entire Candela Empire, and attracted the attention of countless people.

Although the process of the event was slightly delayed due to the unexpected lateness of the Grand Duke Galbut, no one dared to blame the Grand Duke, so after a short pause, he immediately followed the process.

After the Grand Duke Galbut got out of the car, he greeted everyone. He originally planned to deliver a speech he had planned in accordance with the arranged procedures, but he did not expect that when he got on the rostrum, he saw someone who was not like him. unexpected guests.

"Oh, dear Miss Freya, I didn't expect you to come to this event, it's really surprising." The Grand Duke Galbut put on a bright smile that was far more enthusiastic than when he saw other people, and addressed the already Freya stood up and walked over.

Freya also put on a perfect and sunny smile, and bowed gracefully to Grand Duke Galbut.

"My lord Grand Duke, I temporarily decided to take part in this event instead of our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. It's not surprising that you don't know."

Grand Duke Galbut laughed: "Miss Freya, you must be very happy to be invited to this event compared to the people from the No. 1 Steel Plant, right?"

Earl Leidinger, the director of the No. 1 Steel Plant, who was following the Grand Duke Galbut, hurried up. Nodding repeatedly, he said with a smile: "That's right, it's an honor for our No. 1 Steel Plant to participate in this event. It represents the friendship between our No. 1 Steel Plant and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce." Forever strong."

Hearing this, Grand Duke Galbut glanced at Earl Readinger, then smiled again, and made an invitation gesture to Freya.

"Miss Freya, since you're here, why don't you go to the front with me and have a few words?"

Freya waved her hand: "I just spoke as a representative of our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Now we are all waiting for your speech, Grand Duke, before we can hold a luncheon."

Having said that, Freya showed a playful smile, with a trace of complaint intentionally in her tone.

"To be honest, my lord Grand Duke, I've been waiting here for so long, but I'm a little hungry."

Grand Duke Galbut laughed again.

"It's really my fault for making Miss Freya wait so long. Don't worry, I'll just go up and say a few words. I hope Miss Freya can sit with me at the afternoon banquet. I'm I have a lot of questions I want to ask Miss Freya."

"You don't dare to ask for advice. If the Grand Duke has anything you want to ask, feel free to ask. As long as I can answer, I will never hide it." Freya smiled sweetly.

The smile on Grand Duke Galbut's face choked slightly.

This Freya, isn't she even willing to say polite words?

What is "never hide what can be answered"? Does it mean to tell yourself that she will have many questions and is unwilling to answer them?

However, thinking of Freya's father Xu Yi's consistent behavior, Grand Duke Galbut immediately felt relieved.

As Xu Yi's eldest daughter and the sole heir designated by Xu Yi, it is only natural that Freya's behavior style is similar to Xu Yi's.

After exchanging pleasantries with Freya, the Grand Duke Galbut walked up to the speech seat on the rostrum alone, and began the long-awaited speech.

Although he said to Freya that he said something casually, in his capacity. Since I have come to participate in this event, I will definitely enjoy the final scene, so of course it is impossible to just say a few words casually.

After speaking eloquently on the stage for nearly half an hour, he reviewed the development history of the Kandela Empire's steel smelting industry in the past ten years. He had just finished his speech.

At this time, it was almost noon, and the group of people were obviously very hungry.

Fortunately, the Grand Duke Galbut was originally the finale. Now that he had finished his speech, the whole morning's activities came to an end. A group of people were led by the leaders of the steel factory to the location of the luncheon.

During the luncheon. The table where the Grand Duke Galbut sits is of course the most prestigious table.

In addition to the Grand Duke Galbut, Earl Redingall, the director of the First Steelworks, and the Marquis Askend, director of the Department of Magical Industry Management, were also accompanying him.

And of course, Freya.

"Miss Freya, you came to our Candela Empire this time because of the magic communication network, right?" After drinking for three rounds, the Grand Duke Galbut asked Freya who was sitting beside him.

"Yes." Freya nodded.

"Then... since Chairman Xu sent Miss Freya, you must come here in person, you must be planning to agree to the request of the empire?"

Freya smiled slightly, showing two small canine teeth, and slowly shook her head.

"It's not confirmed yet, but I can tell the Grand Duke good news. Our chamber of commerce does intend to transfer the technology of the magic communication network to your country. But the premise is... your country can give us a satisfactory condition."

Grand Duke Galbut laughed: "As long as you are willing to transfer it, the conditions...of course we can negotiate."

After finishing speaking, Grand Duke Galbut raised the wine glass in his hand and gestured to Freya.

"Come on, let's toast to the success of our future cooperation!"

Freya raised the glass, but there was only ordinary fruit juice in it.

However, she did not clink glasses with the Grand Duke Galbut. She just raised her hand as a signal, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Excuse me, Grand Duke, Father is very strict with me. I was not allowed to drink until I was five years old."

Seeing Freya's movements, a gloomy expression flashed across the Grand Duke Galbut's face, but in the blink of an eye, he changed into a smile again.

"President Xu's tutoring must be strict, otherwise he would not be able to teach an outstanding daughter like you, Miss Freya. Speaking of which...Miss Freya, I heard rumors that there is a relationship between you and President Xu A promise, when you are twenty-five years old, it will be up to you to decide whether to take over the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?"

"There is an agreement." Freya nodded.

The other people at the table were originally listening to the conversation between the two of them. Now that they heard this answer, everyone was so focused that they even forgot to drink the wine, and they all looked over.

The issue of the successor of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is not only a very important issue for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but also a very important issue for the entire Sainz continent.

Who is the successor of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce determines the long-term policies and strategies of other forces in the future, and there is no room for sloppyness.

Therefore, countless people on the mainland are extremely concerned about whether Freya will take over the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

Originally, this problem did not pose a problem to other people at all, because although Xu Yi has many children, he had already publicly announced that Freya was his as early as more than 20 years ago when Freya was just born. The only heir, so everyone has decided that Freya will definitely take over the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce from him in the future.

But after Freya grew up, a rumor gradually emerged that Freya might not necessarily take over the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and might choose to give up becoming the next president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

For this rumor, almost everyone did not believe it at first, because no one would think that Freya would ignore such an important position as the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

However, in the following years, various rumors about Freya continued to flow out, which gradually proved this point.

This guy Xu Yi actually gave Freya the right to choose herself, allowing her not to take over the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce!

"Then Miss Freya, if I remember correctly, you will be twenty-five years old next year, right? Have you decided?" The Grand Duke Galbut asked this question that everyone cared about.

Freya rolled her big eyes, wondering how many times she had to answer this question.

"I haven't decided yet." Freya shook her head. "Right now I'm not interested in being like my father, but I'm not sure what it will be this time next year."

The people around looked at each other in blank dismay.

What the hell kind of answer is this? It's not the same as saying...

The Marquis of Askend couldn't help but said: "Miss Freya, I see that you have been in frequent contact with the affairs of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the past few years, and this time President Xu has given you full responsibility for the transfer of magic communication network technology. , presumably... you are actually ready to accept the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, right?"

Freya pouted slightly, and said angrily: "This is a trap deliberately dug by my lord father. I am not interested in dealing with this matter myself."

Everyone could only look at each other again.

It sounds like Xu Yi and Freya's way of getting along with their father and daughter is far beyond anyone's guess.

But they can also hear good news from it, that is, Xu Yi obviously intends to let Freya take over.

Since Xu Yi has this intention, then no accident, Freya will obey his intention after all, and take over the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

In other words, the candidate for the next president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is basically certain, and it is the young and beautiful Miss Freya in front of me.

Thinking of this, everyone's enthusiasm for Freya immediately increased. (~^~)
