Chapter 16 The Duchy of Drake

After discussing some details with President Vincent, Earl Stark unexpectedly sent someone to invite Xu Yi to enter the side hall for a chat.

However, to Xu Yi's surprise, after entering the side hall, in addition to Earl Stark, there were actually two other people he didn't know.

"Come on, President Xu, let me introduce to you, these two are Miss Caroline and Mr. Anduin from the Duchy of Drake." Count Stark saw Xu Yi coming in, got up first, and introduced him to another The man and the woman then pointed at Xu Yi and introduced to the two, "Miss Caroline, this is Xu Yi, the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce."

Xu also noticed that when Count Stark introduced himself, he put this Miss Caroline first, which means that her status should be higher than this Anduin.

Sure enough, after listening to Earl Stark's introduction, Miss Caroline extended her slender right hand to Xu Yi, with a bright smile on her face: "President Xu, I have heard of your name for a long time, and I have always wanted to meet you. Today I'm really happy and honored to finally be able to see a real person with my own eyes."

His eyes officially fell on the face of this Miss Caroline, and Xu Yi suddenly felt his eyes lit up.

It has been more than five years since he came to Sainz Continent, and Xu Yi has seen countless young and beautiful girls, and before this, no girl can be as gorgeous and unparalleled as Steele.

But now, Steele clearly met his opponent.

This Miss Caroline is no less than Steele in terms of appearance alone.

However, unlike Steele's bright and sunny appearance, this Miss Caroline has softer facial features, and with her water-like eyes, the whole person reveals a charming taste, but it is the same as Steele's. It feels completely different.

Xu Yi reached out and shook her lightly, and said with a smile, "It's my honor to be appreciated by a beautiful young lady like you. But Miss Caroline, why do you always want to see me?"

Miss Caroline pursed her lips and smiled softly, her eyes moving slightly. He gave Xu Yi a slightly coquettish look: "Of course it's because I've seen the magic machines produced by your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, so I'm curious about the people who can make these magic machines. President Xu, I really I'm very curious, how did you come up with the idea of ​​making those new and easy-to-use magical machines?"

"Well... you can think of me as a flash of inspiration in my mind." Xu Yi let out a haha. Turning to Earl Stark, he said, "Lord City Lord, you made a special trip to call me here, and let me see these two distinguished guests, so there must be something to talk about?"

Earl Stark frowned slightly, then spread it out, smiled and nodded, motioning Xu Yi to sit down with the other two.

After everyone was seated, Earl Stark coughed lightly and said to Xu Yi: "President Xu, first of all, I think I should explain something to you. During these days, there has been a rumor spreading inside and outside Bangta City. Say yes. The policy of suppressing business and promoting agriculture and the re-planning of the land that I implemented at the beginning were deliberately aimed at you and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. I must say that this is not my original intention, but some people have misinterpreted my meaning. "

Xu Yi looked at the sincere expression on Count Stark's face and suppressed his smile. Nodding lightly, he tried to speak in the same sincere tone: "I understand. If the Lord of the City really wants to deliberately target me and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, how can our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce be alive now? You are right, Lord City Lord?"

Earl Stark's face trembled slightly, and then he laughed: "Of course this is impossible. As the lord of Bangta City, although I pay more attention to agricultural development in comparison, there is no reason to put our Bangta The city's Chamber of Commerce will be put to death. This is obviously impossible. So President Xu, you must understand this, so as not to be misled by the villain."

"I understand." Xu Yi nodded. He was too lazy to waste time with Count Stark on such silly nonsense, and continued to ask: "So Lord City Lord, let's talk about business."

"Okay, President Xu cherishes time so much. No wonder it is so successful." Earl Stark praised, nodded to Miss Caroline and Mr. Anduin, and then continued to Xu Yi: "President Xu, I just wanted to You introduced the names and origins of Miss Caroline and Mr. Anduin, but not their identities. Now I will introduce you again. Miss Caroline is the youngest daughter of Archduke Drake. Anduin Sir is the Minister of Commerce of the Duchy of Drake."

Xu Yi was slightly startled, and quickly stood up again and solemnly re-applied a noble etiquette to the two of them.

"It turned out to be His Royal Highness, Princess Caroline. I was really rude just now."

Princess Caroline and Prime Minister Anduin also stood up again and gave a salute. Princess Caroline smiled and said, "This is not a formal occasion, Viscount Xu, don't mind."

Because Xu Yi treated her with noble etiquette, Princess Caroline also called Xu Yi from "President Xu" to "Viscount Xu".

Anduin also nodded and said, "Viscount Xu, you don't need to care about this. In fact, this time I came to see you with the county master, hoping to have some commercial cooperation with the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, so we prefer to call you your name. Limited to 'President Xu', do you understand what I mean?"

"Commercial cooperation?" Xu Yi glanced at Count Stark in confusion.

This Earl Stark obviously suppressed the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce everywhere, but why did he take the initiative to bring such guests to himself?

As for the Duchy of Drak, according to Xu Yixiu's knowledge of the geography of the Sainz Continent, it is known that it borders the northeastern border of the Kingdom of Lampari, and also borders the Kingdom of Sark. A small principality in the middle of the Kingdom of Sark.

Although it is also a duchy, the evaluation of the Duchy of Drake is much stronger than that of the Duchy of Standing, because it can survive for hundreds of years in the gap between the Kingdom of Lampari and the Kingdom of Sark. The Grand Duke Luck family still has some skills.

However, because the Duchy of Drak was connected to the northeastern border of the Kingdom of Lampari, while Bangta City was located in the southwest of the Kingdom of Lampari, the distance between them was close to a thousand kilometers even in a straight line.

This Princess Caroline and Anduin are both big figures in the Duchy of Drake. It took so long to travel such a long distance to Bangta City to make a special trip to see Xu Yi, which shows their sincerity.

But Xu Yi is very strange that if it is just a normal business cooperation, then it is necessary for this Anduin to come to talk with Xu Yi in person because he is the Minister of Commerce, but this Princess Caroline also came here. doing what?

"Because I really want to meet President Xu with my own eyes." Facing Xu Yi's question, Her Royal Highness Princess Caroline showed a sweet smile and said, "I have been very interested in magic since I was a child, but because of my lack of talent. High, so the magic power has always been very poor, so I can only be very interested in some gadgets made by magic. Since I was a child, I have imagined that since magic is so magical, there must be many magical things that can be made by magic. To achieve things that we humans cannot rely on our own strength. This kind of thing rarely appeared on this continent before, and I have no ability to study it, so I have always regretted it. But seeing the various products produced by your new flying chamber of commerce After the magical magical machinery, I found that my regret was finally made up! President Xu, can you understand my excitement when I saw those magical machinery?"

Seeing the excited expression of Princess Caroline's body and the surprise on her face as she spoke, Xu Yi smiled and raised her eyes slightly to avoid looking directly at her chest that was exposed after she leaned down. The snow in front of it.

"I can't believe that Princess Caroline has the same interest as me when I was a child. The making of these magical machines stems from my childhood fantasy about this aspect. Being able to make so many different kinds of magical machines can be considered a blessing for me. A dream in my heart."

Princess Caroline sighed softly: "President Xu, it would be great if I could meet you when I was young, so that we can have a common dream and grow up together and study magical machinery together."

Xu Yi coughed lightly, feeling that Princess Caroline's words were a bit sloppy.

Besides, he grew up on earth when he was a child. No matter how Princess Caroline had the same dream as him, it was impossible to grow up with him.

"If Princess Caroline still has this dream, it is not impossible to start studying magic machinery from now on." Xu Yi smiled and turned to Anduin: "Mr. Anduin, the business you just mentioned What exactly does the cooperation mean?”

Anduin pondered for a moment and said, "President Xu, I heard that your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has already cooperated with the Duchy of Standing and the Kingdom of Ruerson?"

"Yes." Xu Yi nodded.

"Then President Xu, if we, the Principality of Drake, want to carry out more in-depth cooperation with your new flight merchants' association, are you willing to accept it?"

"I'm a businessman." Xu Yi smiled and said, "As long as we can make money, of course there is no problem with in-depth cooperation. But Mr. Anduin, you still haven't said how to cooperate?"

"Well... I heard that the Ruelson Kingdom purchased tens of thousands of farmland magic machines from your chamber of commerce. Although our Drake Duchy also needs these magical farmland magic machines, I don't think simply buying them can solve the problem. "

"so what?"

"So, on behalf of Duke Drake, I sincerely invite the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to invest in our Duchy of Drake, not only to build a factory to produce farmland magic machinery, but to build a factory that produces all the magic machinery that your chamber of commerce is currently producing. Factory." Anduin waved his hand proudly.

"It's a good idea, and I agree with it in theory. But..." Xu Yi smiled slightly. "It's not realistic in practice."
