Chapter 105 I Won't Go Back!
Establishing a relationship with the Lifao family and placing advertisements in the "Anweimar Daily" are just two of the more important things that Xu Yi needs to do after coming to Anweimar City this time. ?. .
After negotiating with Haines, Xu Yi went to three more places non-stop, respectively with the president of the Wal-Mart Chamber of Commerce Colmar Lenders, the Great Magician Esenka, and President Allen, who had made appointments in advance. We met.
By the time he dragged his exhausted body back to Earl Summer's other courtyard, it was almost completely dark.
Supervisor Lahm, who had been waiting for Xu Yi's return, saw Xu Yi enter the door, and immediately greeted him cordially.
Although Earl Samo no longer served as the lord of Banta City, he still retained this courtyard as a temporary office for people who came to Anweimar City from Banta City.
Xu Yi chose to stay here when he came to Anwei Mar City several times before, and this time is no exception.
Because of Earl Summer's repeated instructions, Director Ram is extremely respectful and polite every time he sees Xu Yi, and he does not dare to neglect him at all.
Seeing Director Ram ordering the servants to prepare bath water on his own account, the idea of buying a residence in Anweimar City came to Xu Yi's mind. In the future, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will definitely open more and more businesses in Anweimar City, and the number of times he will come to Anweimar City will only increase. It is obviously inconvenient to live here all the time. It is better to have a place of his own better.
Although it is not easy to buy a suitable residence in Anweimar City, but through Hainas' relationship and as long as he is willing to pay. I believe it is not difficult.
But when he thought about it, he just spent close to 500,000 gold coins today, and Xu Yi couldn't help but smile wryly.
Among these expenses, 350,000 gold coins can be regarded as an investment for the Lifao family, and 100,000 gold coins can be regarded as an investment in advertising, which is an investment that cannot see benefits in the short term.
Instead, it was only 5,700 gold coins bought for Magister Thorne's notes. But it is very likely that you will be able to see the specific effect after a period of time.
Xu Yi picked up the note in his hand and flipped through it, and confirmed that the content inside was the same as the rumors, and it was a record of some research done by Magister Thorne in his later years. Including many related research records about his research on magic flying machines.
These things are extremely helpful for Evita's research on magic spaceships, if it weren't for other magicians not paying any attention to this aspect. It is absolutely impossible for Xu Yi to buy such a precious notebook for only 5,700 gold coins. After sorting out the contents of the notes in his mind, Xu Yi closed the notes with satisfaction, and was about to go back to his bedroom to put things away, when he suddenly found a dangling figure walking in behind him.
Xu Yi took a closer look and found that this guy who seemed to be unable to walk steadily was actually Alex.
"Alex. Where have you been? Why did you come back so late?" Xu Yi looked at Alex, who smelled of alcohol and drunk, walked over, and couldn't help frowning and asked.
Alex raised his eyelids and saw that it was Xu Yi. Suddenly startled, most of the drunkenness flew out in an instant, and he hurriedly stood up straight. He laughed and said, "This...go out to meet with...friends and talk about something, so it's late. When did you arrive, President?"
"Friend? Talk about something?" Xu Yi didn't answer Alex's question. His eyes were on his body, which had been stained a lot with alcohol and vomit, and he looked wrinkled, but he could still see that The workmanship is excellent, the materials are high-grade, and the clothes that are obviously expensive, as well as the thick gold necklace on his neck and the amethyst agate bracelet on his wrist, which are very expensive at first glance, passed by, and a cold light flashed in his eyes .
"Well... talk... talk... They want to buy a batch of magic refrigerators from our chamber of commerce, so they're negotiating the price with me." Alex wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied.
"Oh? How about the price negotiation?" Xu Yi asked again.
Alex wiped his sweat again, and replied hesitantly: "It's...not bad. They promised a price of twenty-eight gold coins."
"Oh? That's not bad." Xu Yi nodded. "Although it's a bit worse than our standard price of 30 gold coins, if they buy enough, it's okay."
"Yes, yes, they bought a lot, so I gave them a little discount accordingly." Alex nodded repeatedly. "President, didn't you say that I... I can properly... adjust the price a little according to the situation."
"That's right, as I said, this is the authority of your sub-office supervisor, there is no problem." Xu Yi nodded, paused, and asked again: "But Alex, since I happened to meet you, I I want to ask you a question."
"Ah? President, you ask."
"Before I came to Anweimar City this time, your Uncle Heinze discussed with me and planned to transfer you back to Bangta City..."
"Ah? How can I do that! I'm not going back!" Before Xu Yi could finish speaking, Alex had already waved his hands vigorously and shouted loudly. "I don't want to go back to the small place of Bangta City. I have a good stay in Anweimar City. Why do you have to go back?"
Xu Yi looked at the excited Alex quietly, and after he stopped, he continued: "I haven't finished yet. Although this is Heinze's proposal, I haven't agreed yet. I just came here this time to Let me ask for your opinion. After all, you are Heinze's nephew, and Heinze will consider for your sake whatever happens to you, and he also hopes that you can make your own decisions."
"Anyway, I don't want to go back to Bangta City. I have been in Anweimar City for two years, and I have long been used to life here. If I go back, I will definitely not get used to it!" Alex said loudly.
"Are you sure?" Xu Yi smiled slightly. "Alex, are you used to the busy work here every day? Or are you used to the luxurious life here?"
Alex was stunned, looking at Xu Yi's face with a half-smile, he trembled all over, lowered his head, avoiding Xu Yi's sight.
"I will... Master Chairman, I... I don't know what you are talking about."
"I don't know? It's fine if I don't know." Xu Yi shook his head lightly, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes. "In short, think about it these two days, before I leave Anweimar City. I hope you can make the right decision."
Xu Yi paused, then sighed, and said in a very sincere tone: "Alex, let me say it again, Heinze is an old friend and partner who has been cooperating with me since I founded the chamber of commerce. You are his most cherished nephew. Although I am not much older than you, I have always regarded you as a descendant of my own relatives. So no matter what you do wrong, please. Heinze and I will give you a chance Redeem."
Alex was silent for a moment, then raised his head. Looking directly at Xu Yi: "Master President, I don't understand what you are talking about. If I have done something wrong, please speak up directly, and I can correct it."
"Correction?" Seeing the expression on Alex's face, Xu Yi smiled and waved his hand: "Okay. I didn't say anything. It's so late, go to bed."
Alex saluted Xu Yi, turned around and left.
Seeing his back disappearing into the night, Xu Yi showed a wry smile.
"Heinze. I hope you won't blame me, an old fellow, for being unkind."

Different from the previous two years, this year's Magicians Union qualification certification examination is finally going on as scheduled as in previous years.
At this time, the city of Anweimar is also the same as in previous years. Crowded with magicians from all over.
Compared with previous years, the number of magicians who came to participate in the assessment this year has increased significantly, so that magicians wearing magic robes can be seen everywhere in the entire city of Anvilmar, as if turning the entire city of Anvilmar into a Magic City.
If you pay attention, you will find that among the magicians who came to participate in the assessment this year, the proportion of senior magicians seems to be much higher than in previous years.
In the past, because it was extremely difficult for senior magicians to upgrade their level, senior magicians would not come if they were not sure that they could pass the higher-level magician certification examination.
But this year, there are many high-level magicians who obviously participated in the assessment last year, and they actually came again this year.
This is really a strange phenomenon, because only one year has passed, and it is impossible for most senior magicians over level five to improve their magician level in such a short period of time.
Then what do they come to participate in the assessment?
"Don't you know this? Didn't you read the "Anweimar Daily"? The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in Bangta City made a new regulation two months ago, that is, magicians who intend to join the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce , You must have the qualification certificate issued by the Magicians Union within two years to prove that you have the corresponding magical strength."
In a tavern opposite the Sheldon Hotel, a group of people were gathering together to talk loudly. The person who said this was a middle-aged fat man in the crowd.
"Impossible? This Xinfei Chamber of Commerce dares to be so arrogant?" Hearing the middle-aged fat man's words, some people around showed expressions of disbelief. "The magicians are such noble people. Being willing to work in their Chamber of Commerce is enough to look up to them. How dare they ask these noble magicians to prove their strength with qualification certificates? Could it be that those magicians Don't the gentlemen feel that this is humiliating them?"
"Cut—" the middle-aged fat man sneered. "In front of a monthly salary of tens or even hundreds of gold coins, nobility? Dignity? What is this? Can it be eaten?"
Everyone around was stunned.
"Dozens or even hundreds of gold coins a month? So much?"
"That's right. Does the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce have a lot of money? Any magician will pay a salary of tens or even hundreds of gold coins a month? If you hire hundreds of magicians, isn't it just for these people? The salaries of magicians are tens of thousands of gold coins?"
"Tens of thousands of gold coins?" The middle-aged fat man held his head high, as proud as if he himself was the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. "You look down on the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce too much. Do you know that a friend of mine who works in a Xinfei Chamber of Commerce told me that their Xinfei Chamber of Commerce now pays all employees a salary of more than 100,000 yuan a month? Gold coins!"
Everyone was in an uproar.
For ordinary people like them, one hundred thousand gold coins is undoubtedly an astronomical figure.
But now, this Xinfei Chamber of Commerce actually pays more than 100,000 gold coins to its employees every month, which is really unimaginable.
"What? Don't believe it?" The middle-aged fat man pointed to the Sheldon Hotel opposite the pub. "Tell you, the magicians from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will also come to participate in the qualification assessment of the Magicians Union this time. Do you know that they will live there after they come?"
Everyone stared blankly at the magnificence on the opposite side. Although they saw it all day long, they never had the opportunity to enter the Sheldon Hotel where they stayed.
"No way, are you staying at the Sheldon Hotel?"
"Hey, you guessed it right. My friend said..."
The middle-aged fat man just continued to brag about this "friend", but found that there was a commotion on the street at the corner. A moment later, a row of more than ten square monsters like iron boxes came slowly from the corner. They drove over and stopped in front of the Sheldon Hotel one by one. )
