Chapter 113 Buying and Selling Things
The dinner on the Sainz Continent is somewhat different from the dinner in the Celestial Dynasty on Earth. Before the meal is finished, it is absolutely impossible to talk about business.
So there was a lot of pilgrimages, and after the meal was full, the dessert was served after the meal, and everyone took a sip of tea, and Reeves stepped into the main topic.
"President Xu, I asked Hainas to invite you over for this meal today. The first reason is that the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has developed rapidly in the past year. I really want to meet President Xu again to see how you and a year ago are. Compared with whether there has been any change, the second is that my two friends just have something to ask President Xu for your help."
Newman from the Ruelson Kingdom immediately nodded and smiled: "Yes, I specifically asked Reeves to meet President Xu, otherwise, I really don't know how to meet you."
"It's the same with me. I came from the Principality this time to make a special trip to see President Xu." Anklu from the Principality of Standing also nodded.
Xu Yi glanced at Hai Nas a little strangely, but saw that he shrugged his shoulders, clearly didn't know the authenticity of the meal, so he turned his head, his eyes swept across the faces of the two, and smiled: "Two You're too kind. Just don't know how I can help you?"
The two looked at each other, and Newman said first: "That's it, President Xu. I heard that your Lampari Kingdom started to promote the farmland magic machinery produced by your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce last year, and then this year's autumn harvest received After a bumper harvest, the grain output in the kingdom is much higher than in previous years, is there such a thing?"
"Uh... I don't know the specific data, so it's hard to say whether it is much higher, but I guess it should be about the same." Xu Yi replied uncertainly.
Of course he was lying.
In fact, not long after the autumn harvest in Bangta City ended, he had already received this good news from the Earl of Summer, saying that according to the statistics of the Agriculture Department, the total amount of grain harvested by the Kingdom of Lampari during this year's autumn harvest has reached the same level as previous years. nearly three times as much!
Xu Yi came to Anweimar City this time, and another very important thing was to attend the celebration banquet specially organized by His Majesty the King for this great harvest.
Spoiler ahead as per Sevigny. Xu also was judged by His Majesty the King as the biggest contributor to Lampari Kingdom's great harvest, so he will be awarded a special reward at the banquet.
Of course, these things do not need to be revealed in front of the two foreigners.
Without knowing the real purpose of the place, he would of course choose to answer vaguely.
Newman didn't care too much about Xu Yi's answer. It can be seen that he obviously already has very specific information.
"President Xu, I don't think anyone can deny the powerful role of the farmland magic machinery produced by your chamber of commerce, so I'm asking you now, I wonder if your new flying chamber of commerce has sold these farmland magic machinery to others. What about the idea of going to the country?" Newman asked again.
Xu Yi was startled: "Mr. Newman, what do you mean... do you want to buy farmland magic machinery?"
Newman nodded and said: "Yes. There are even more barren farmland in our Ruelson Kingdom than your Lampari Kingdom, so I think if we can buy enough farmland magic machinery from your Chamber of Commerce, we Ruhl The grain production in the Xun Kingdom will also be greatly increased.”
"Although from a businessman's point of view, I certainly hope that the goods produced by my chamber of commerce can sell as much as possible. But Mr. Newman, please be blunt. The magic machinery of farmland is now deeply loved by His Majesty the King of Lampari Kingdom. Pay attention, I'm afraid I can't decide to sell it to you without authorization." Xu Yi said a little helplessly.
Newman laughed: "I think President Xu, you shouldn't have to worry about this matter. Because since Mr. Reeves is willing to bring me to see you, then your honorable His Majesty the King will definitely agree to this matter."
"Really?" Xu Yi looked at Reeves in confusion.
Does this Reeves have so much energy?
Reeves nodded gently to Xu Yi: "President Xu, you don't have to worry about this."
It's no wonder that Xu Yi is not worried, this farmland magic machine can even be regarded as a strategic material for the Kingdom of Lampari. Normally, His Majesty the King would not allow it to be exported abroad at all.
However, Reeves made it clear that he would not reveal the truth, so Xu Yi had to look at Hainas, who had been a boring gourd.
Hainas immediately nodded to Xu Yi: "Don't worry, since Uncle Reeves has already said it, then you don't have to worry."
"This guy is not reliable..." Xu Yi murmured in his heart, looked at Newman again, and thought about it: "Mr. Newman. As long as His Majesty the King agrees, I think I will be happy to make this transaction with you. But in Before that, I would like to ask, how many farmland magic machines do you plan to buy?"
Newman stretched out a finger: "I plan to buy 10,000 units of each type of farmland magic machinery. If the effect is satisfactory, I may add more orders in the future."
"10,000 units of each type?" Xu Yi was immediately taken aback.
At present, there are a total of six types of farmland magic machines produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. If this Newman buys 10,000 units of each type, according to the current price, the order will add up to more than four million gold coins!
And according to the terrifying profit rate of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce on the farmland magic machinery, from this order alone, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce may obtain a terrifying profit of nearly three million gold coins!
"What? Is there anything wrong with President Xu?" Seeing Xu Yi's expression changed slightly. Newman asked.
Xu Yi took a sip from the teacup on the table, tried to calm down the excitement in his heart, and then said, "Mr. Newman, I'm very curious about your identity."
Newman and Reeves looked at each other, smiled and said, "It seems that President Xu has doubts about whether I can pay the amount of this order?"
Xu Yi shook his head: "No, since you were invited by Mr. Reeves, of course I wouldn't doubt your ability to pay. It's just that I think it's very strange. If you, Mr. Newman, are just an ordinary businessman, why would you think of buying such a business? What about the multi-farm magic machinery? Even if you want to take it back to the Ruelson Kingdom for resale, I don’t think there will be much profit at all because of the transportation problem.”
Newman suddenly burst out laughing: "President Xu, if I say I'm not trying to make money at all, would you believe it?"
Xu Yi looked at him and made it clear that he didn't believe it.
"Well, it seems that if you don't make it clear, I'm afraid it will be difficult to gain your trust, President Xu. Well... My identity is disclosed to the public as the president of the Ruelson Chamber of Commerce in the Ruelson Kingdom. As for the actual , is a director who specializes in doing some business for the royal family, just like Mr. Reeves. Now, President Xu, do you understand what I mean? "
Xu also noticed immediately that Newman said he and Reeves were similar.
This also means that Reeves is actually the royal comprador of Lampari Kingdom?
No wonder both Reeves and Hynas told Xu Yi not to worry that His Majesty the King would not agree with him to sell the farmland magic machinery. Maybe today's meeting was simply carried out by Reeves under His Majesty's order.
Xu Yi couldn't help shaking his head, since that was the case, why didn't anyone inform him in advance to prepare himself mentally in advance?
"President Xu, in fact, if it's not necessary, I don't want to reveal my identity, so please forgive me." Reeves bowed slightly to Xu Yi, apologetically.
Xu Yi quickly waved his hand: "No, no, Mr. Reeves, you don't need to apologize. But now that you understand the identities of you and Mr. Newman, it will be easier to talk about. Well, I can take this order on behalf of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. "
Newman immediately picked up a bottle of wine and filled Xu Yi's and his own wine glasses respectively, and the two raised the wine glasses and touched them lightly.
"President Xu, I hope we can cooperate happily."
"Hope for a happy co-operation."
After Newman and Xu Yi reached a preliminary agreement, it was naturally Angkluy's turn.
Xu Yi wiped the wine from the corner of his mouth, looked at Ankreu and asked, "Mr. Ankreu, like Mr. Newman, are you interested in our Chamber of Commerce's farmland magic machinery?"
Uncle shook his head: "No, I'm different from him, he's here to buy things, and I'm here to sell things."
"Selling something?" Xu Yi was stunned. "Do you have anything to sell to me?"
"President Xu, you should ask us what we have in the Principality of Standing to sell to you."
Hearing the meaning of Anklu's words, Xu Yi's heart jumped, and he quickly asked: "Then, Mr. Anklu, what do you want to sell to me from the Principality of Standing?"
Anklu smiled slightly: "I heard that President Xu has always been very interested in buying various mines, so how about we sell you two iron mines and one copper mine?"
"Two iron mines? One copper mine?" Xu Yi looked straight at Anklu in disbelief. "Mr. Uncle, are you joking?"
"Of course I'm not joking." Unkru shook his head. "President Xu, I made a special trip to ask Mr. Reeves to meet you this time, not to make fun of you. How is it? Now, on behalf of the Grand Duke of Standin, I invite you to the New Flying Chamber of Commerce to mine in the Duchy of Standing, the one chosen by the Grand Duke himself. Two iron mines and one copper mine, what do you think?"
Xu Yi swallowed hard: "Mr. Anklu, is this really what Grand Duke Standin meant? I can understand the two iron mines, why did Grand Duke Standin choose to sell us a copper mine as well? "
"It's very simple, it's useless to stay there, so the Archduke decided that it might be better to use them in exchange for something we need," Ankro replied.
Xu Yi immediately heard the deep meaning hidden in Anklu's words.
"So... the Archduke Standing didn't want me to pay with gold coins? I just don't know what the Archduke needs?"
"President Xu, let's not discuss these things here?" Anklu's eyes swept across Reeves, Newman, and Hynas, and asked Xu Yi seriously, "I just want to ask Xu Hui. Chang, now the Grand Duke wants to sell it, do you want to buy it?"
Xu Yi sat up straight, his expression became serious, and nodded slowly.
"Want! I really want to buy it!"
