Chapter 17 Count Stark's Request

The other three were stunned at the same time.

Princess Caroline asked in surprise: "Why? President Xu, since you can agree to invest in the Kingdom of Ruerson and the Duchy of Standing, why can't you invest in our Duchy of Drake?"

"I'm not saying it can't be done at all, but I think Mr. Anduin's idea is unrealistic in practice, or at this stage," Xu Yidao said.

"Why isn't it realistic?" Princess Caroline asked.

"Because of the distance." Xu Yidao: "His Royal Highness, Mr. Anduin, I think you should understand that although the Duchy of Drake has a border with our Kingdom of Lampari, it is close to a thousand kilometers from our Bangta City. This is In a very far distance at present, with the current strength of our chamber of commerce, it is actually very uneasy to invest in such a distant place."

"Why don't you worry?" Princess Caroline asked again: "Kuraka, the capital of the Ruelson Kingdom, is also close to a thousand kilometers from Bangta City, and it is not much closer than our Duchy of Drake. Why? Would you rest assured to invest in the Ruelson Kingdom, but not in our Duchy of Drake?"

Xu Yi smiled slightly: "His Royal Highness, the Ruelson Kingdom and our two countries Lampa are close allies. There is no danger in investing in the Ruelson Kingdom under normal circumstances, so I am very relieved."

The Princess Caroline frowned: "Don't you want to say that our Duchy of Drake is not safe enough?"

"I'm not worried about your Duchy of Drake, but about your good neighbor." Xu Yi smiled.

Princess Caroline and Anduin suddenly realized at the same time.

"It turns out that you are worried about the Kingdom of Sark." Princess Caroline and Anduin looked at each other and persuaded Xu Yi again: "President Xu, I don't think you need to worry about this at all. Although the Kingdom of Sark and you The Kingdom of Lampari is a hostile relationship, but their relationship with our Principality of Drake has always been peaceful and friendly, and will not have any impact on your Chamber of Commerce investing in our Principality."

Anduin also said: "His Royal Highness is right, even if the Kingdom of Sark and your Kingdom of Lampari are hostile, but this has nothing to do with your Chamber of Commerce investing in our Principality. This is just a very ordinary business. Cooperation, the Kingdom of Sark will not take any adverse action against the noble merchants in our Duchy of Drak because of this. If they really dare to do so, that is to declare hostility to our Principality. And this is precisely what Sa Something that the Kingdom of K has been avoiding for so many years, so you don't have to worry about it."

Of course, Xu Yi knew that Anduin was telling the truth, the reason why the Duchy of Drak was able to survive for so long in the gap between the Kingdom of Lampari and the Kingdom of Sark. In addition to its own strength is not weak, but also because both the Lampari Kingdom and the Drake Kingdom are trying to win over it at the same time, and they dare not offend it easily.

Because for the Kingdom of Lampari and the Kingdom of Sark, which are relatively close in strength, as long as the Duchy of Drak joins either side, it is possible to instantly tilt the balance of the two sides, thus causing a sudden change in the situation.

This is something that neither side wants to see, so the Duchy of Drake has always been able to do well between the two sides.

But the reason why Xu Yi rejected Anduin's proposal was not because of safety concerns, but if he chose to invest heavily in the Duchy of Drake at this time, it would disrupt his overall layout plan for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

According to his long-term plan. If the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce wants to develop steadily, the first thing is to lay a solid foundation in Bangta City.

This has been done so far. Even if Earl Stark comes strong and targets the New Flying Chamber of Commerce everywhere, there is still not much to do with the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.

Second. It is to develop the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to the entire Kingdom of Lampari, so that the magic industry covers the entire kingdom, and completely change the appearance and national strength of the Kingdom of Lampari.

This was temporarily hindered by the current political uncertainty in the Lampari Kingdom.

Therefore, Xu Yi slightly advanced the plan for the next step, that is, the plan to invest in other countries was slightly advanced, so that the scale of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was further expanded, and its tentacles could also be extended to more places on the Sainz Continent.

Xu also took this step very cautiously. Whether it is in the Principality of Standing or in the Principality of Roulson, the investment of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is very careful, and at least there is an 80% certainty that there will be no problems, and Xu Yicai is willing to actually carry it out.

So although it seems that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has cooperated with the Ruelson Kingdom and the Duchy of Standing, in fact, so far, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has not officially established the various factories it should have in these two places.

at this time. The Principality of Draco, which is thousands of miles away, suddenly came to invite Xu Yi to make all-round investment and construction. Of course, Xu Yi could not agree immediately.

However, Xu also could not be completely blocked. After all, the Principality of Drak was a country bordering the Kingdom of Lampari, and it was also an area that must be covered in the long-term expansion plan of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

Look at the sincere expressions of Princess Caroline and Anduin. Xu Yi thought about it and said: "Well, let our Chamber of Commerce immediately go to the Principality of Drake for comprehensive investment, which is very unrealistic, but it is no problem to carry out preliminary cooperation. There is a saying in our hometown, "Don't take a bite out of delusion." Become a fat man. Therefore, the cooperation between us can be carried out step by step, and after a certain level of accumulation, we can truly achieve full investment. Before that, I hope you will not be too impatient. "

Princess Caroline and Anduin exchanged a look, and Anduin nodded: "I admit that President Xu, you are very reasonable. Then President Xu, where do you think our initial cooperation should start? more suitable?"

Xu Yi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that this Anduin probably never thought that he would agree to invest in the Duchy of Drake.

He did this completely by outbidding the sky and paying back the money on the ground.

He did not promise him to go to the Principality of Drake to make a comprehensive investment, but he had already agreed to cooperate with the Principality of Drake when he was not paying attention.

After realizing this, Xu Yi couldn't help shaking his head slightly.

Sure enough, the person who can become a Principality's Minister of Commerce will definitely not be a simple-minded and enthusiastic boy who shouts that the new flight chamber of commerce should start full investment immediately.

However, this is not a special influence. Anyway, Xu Yi did not resist investing in the Principality of Drake.

"I don't know much about the Principality of Drake, so it is up to you to propose which aspect of cooperation is more suitable. What does your Principality need now, and what our Chamber of Commerce can provide. After knowing this, we can talk about the specifics. Isn't it cooperation?" Xu Yi asked back.

"That's right." Anduin laughed: "But President Xu. I'm afraid we need to know more about your chamber of commerce, so in the next period of time, the county master and I will be more disturbed. is you."

"Welcome." Xu Yi put on a warm smile. "It is our honor to have guests from afar to inspect our chamber of commerce."

"That's good. President Xu, starting from tomorrow, we hope to be able to go to the Falling Rain Valley for inspection, and hope you can be prepared." Anduin said again.

"must."

"President Xu, see you later." Princess Caroline waved to Xu Yi, and with a smile, got up and left the side hall with Anduin.

"See you later?" Xu Yi wondered in his heart, watching Princess Caroline and Anduin walk out the door, turning to look at Earl Standing who had been silent, the smile on his face faded, and he asked calmly, "Sir City Lord. .Is there anything I need to explain to me alone?"

"I can't explain it, but there is something I need your help." After Princess Caroline and Anduin left, the smile on Earl Stark's face also faded a lot, although he was still smiling, But no matter how you look at it, there is a hint of coldness.

"Oh? Need my help? City Lord, you are too polite. If you have anything to say, just say it." Xu Yi said.

Earl Stark glanced at Xu Yi and confirmed that Xu Yi did not appear to be resisting, then nodded and said: "Well, I am now making a request to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce on behalf of the City Lord's Mansion. Given that Bangta City is about to enter the autumn harvest , in order to ensure the smooth progress of the autumn harvest and ensure the grain output of Bangta City, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce is required to conduct a comprehensive overhaul of all farmland magic machinery currently used in Bangta City within half a month. If there is any damage, it must also be here. Repair it within half a month or simply replace it. See what I mean?"

"I don't quite understand." Xu Yi shook his head. "Lord City Master, all the farmland magic machines in Bangta City are currently sold by our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, so their after-sales service guarantee is of course borne by our chamber of commerce. If there is a problem with any farmland magic machine, the buyer Obviously going to our Product Service Center to report it myself. I don't think we're going to have to do an extra overhaul for all of us?"

"I said it just now. This is to ensure the smooth progress of the autumn harvest." Earl Stark frowned.

"Okay, since it is the request of the City Lord's Mansion, I accept it on behalf of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. But..." Xu Yi looked at Earl Stark with a smile on the corner of his mouth. "For the extra cost incurred, please ask the Lord of the City. Who should bear it?"

Earl Stark snorted coldly: "What? The autumn harvest is the most important thing in Bangta City. Do you have to worry about making your new flight merchants contribute a little to this? President Xu, in the face of such a major event, I I advise you not to put on the face of a businessman. Don't forget that besides being a businessman, you are also a noble noble of the kingdom!"

Xu Yi shrugged: "Okay, I understand. On behalf of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, I accept your arrangement, Lord City Master."

Earl Stark snorted again and continued: "In addition to this, according to the statistical results, I found that if we want to fully reclaim and cultivate all the farmland in Bangta City, we need to replenish about 3,000 various farmland magic powers. Machinery. On behalf of the City Lord's Mansion, I request your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to hand over these 3,000 farmland magic machines to the City Lord's Mansion within this half month."

Xu Yi raised his eyebrows slightly and raised his voice slightly: "Sir City Lord, our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has a lot of orders for farmland magic machinery, and the production task is very heavy. If another 3,000 units are handed over to the City Lord's Mansion within half a month, I am afraid it will affect. Delivery of other orders."

"I don't care about this, this is the order of the City Lord's Mansion, you must accept it." Count Stark waved his hand.

Seeing that Earl Stark actually looked unreasonable, Xu Yi breathed a sigh of relief, slowed down, leaned back in the chair, looked at Earl Stark, and asked with a light smile on his face : "Then may I ask the Lord of the City, do we still let the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce bear the cost of these three thousand farmland magic machines?"

The muscles on Earl Stark's face twitched, and finally he gritted his teeth and said, "No, these three thousand farmland magic machines will be paid for by the City Lord's Mansion."

The smile on Xu Yi's face suddenly grew stronger.
