Chapter 55

If Xu Yi knew that at this moment Sevini actually complained in his heart that he had abandoned the kingdom of Lampari and the city of Bangta, he would definitely cry out for injustice. ..m

Because half a month before the new year, he had brought his family back to the Luoxing Manor in Bangta City.

And just yesterday, he also participated in the New Year's Eve Party held by the City Lord's Mansion, and had a "kind and friendly" conversation with the City Lord Kamadou, and by the way, had a good time with a group of old friends in Bangta City after the party He drank so much that when he woke up on the first morning of the new year, his head still hurt from the hangover.

But the headache did not affect his established plan.

According to the plan, on the first day of the new year, he visited a group of people as usual, including not only the old partners of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in Bangta City, but also the owner of Kamadou and representatives of the ten chambers of commerce.

Although the two parties have actually broken up, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce still retains some facilities in Bangta City, and it is still regarded as the Chamber of Commerce in Bangta City in name, so it is necessary to maintain basic etiquette on the surface.

As for the inner thoughts of the Lord Kamadu and the ten chambers of commerce, they are obviously similar to Xu Yi. Although they were not polite to Xu Yi and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, when Xu Yi took the initiative to come to the door, they still behaved politely. Be polite, without showing the slightest faux pas. Although the exchange of etiquette between the two parties is easy to understand, it made Chairman Cruise very impatient, because he came to Luoxing Manor early in the morning and wanted to greet Xu Yi for the New Year, but he did not expect Xu Yi to go out to visit Kama City Lord Du and the representatives of the ten chambers of commerce spent half the morning, so much so that when he waited at Luoxing Manor for Xu Yi to return, it was almost noon.

"I said Xu Yi, those guys have done this kind of thing to your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, why are you being so polite with them?" Chairman Cruise looked at the happy face after returning from the visit, and couldn't tell. Any unhappy Xu Yi frowned and asked, "Could it be that you still expect them to change their attitude?"

"Of course it's impossible." Xu Yi smiled and shook his head. "This is just an ordinary courtesy exchange, and I'm not looking at their face, but the face of the entire Bangta City."

"The face of the entire Banta City?" President Cruise snorted coldly. "The face of the entire Bangta City has been lost by them!"

"Oh? How did you say that?" Xu Yi sat down on the sofa in the living room and looked at President Cruise in surprise.

"Our Banta City has been the number one in this neighborhood for a few years, right? It's not even far behind Anweimar City. But look at this year. Those guys made the whole Banta City a mess. , let alone compare with Anweimar City, even if compared with the surrounding Kalmar City and Saltan City, it is not much better." President Cruise said angrily. "Isn't it?" Xu Yi asked in surprise. "Bangta City has developed so well in the past few years, no matter how corrupted they are, it should still be much stronger than these other cities, right?"

"Hmph, it's indeed stronger now. But it won't be so in a year or two." President Cruise snorted, "Now all the chambers of commerce in the city, except those ten chambers of commerce, are planning to move out. Well. Tell me about it. Bangta City has become so prosperous because of the development of our chambers of commerce. Of course, your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce played the biggest role. Now those guys have driven your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce away. Let’s go, our other chambers of commerce have also been forced to die by them, what future can Bangta City have?”

"Is there a way out?" Xu Yi frowned. "Is it so exaggerated?"

"Of course!" President Cruise raised his voice. "Do you know what bullshit rules came out in the City Lord's Mansion a while ago?"...

"Oh? What? Is it related to your Amley Chamber of Commerce?"

"Of course it's relevant! The City Lord's Mansion actually issued a notice to us, saying that laying roads and building houses will involve the expropriation of the kingdom's land, so they need to be under the unified management of the Kingdom Council. Management arrangements. According to the research and decision of the City Lord's Mansion. In the future, no matter where our Amrit Chamber of Commerce lays roads or builds houses, we must first report to the City Lord's Mansion for approval, and then complete it under the supervision of the City Lord's Mansion."

Xu Yi thought about it, but felt that there was nothing wrong with this rule.

Because land is a limited resource after all, and because of the existence of nobles, there is not much land left for the Kingdom Council to control, so it is necessary for the Kingdom Council to strictly manage these lands.

"Shit!" Chairman Cruise waved his hand angrily. "If they think about it from this aspect, then I have no objection. It doesn't matter if you hand over some money. But the City Lord's Mansion appointed the American-Asian Chamber of Commerce to set up a chamber of commerce that is responsible for evaluating land use conditions. Chamber of Commerce. Do you know what this Chamber of Commerce is for?"

"Isn't it to evaluate your chamber of commerce's use of the land?" Xu Yi asked back.

Chairman Cruise snorted heavily: "If only this is the case! But the City Lord's Mansion actually requires our Chamber of Commerce to cooperate with the American-Asian Chamber of Commerce and obtain the evaluation of the American-Asian Chamber of Commerce wherever we lay roads or build houses. The construction is allowed to start only after the project is in progress. And during the process of the project, it has to be audited by the American-Asian Chamber of Commerce.”

"Well, this is considered a normal method. I don't think it's a big deal." Xu Yi shook his head.

"Isn't this a big deal?" Chairman Cruise's eyes widened. "Do you know what the people sent by the American-Asian Chamber of Commerce said?"

Seeing the angry expression on President Cruise's face, Xu Yi couldn't help frowning: "Could it be that their demands are too much?"

"Excessive?" President Cruise sneered. "It's more than excessive, it's shameless! The American-Asian Chamber of Commerce actually asked me to take a 30% stake in all the road paving and housing construction projects of our chamber of commerce! And asked us to take out various engineering technologies and hand them over to them for detailed review! "

Xu Yi was stunned for a moment, but couldn't help laughing.

"Haha, is this the method used to deal with our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and then use it to deal with your Amley Chamber of Commerce? Judging from this, I am afraid that after the American-Asian Chamber of Commerce gets all the engineering technology from you, it will soon introduce a Regulations, declare that your Amrit Chamber of Commerce does not have the corresponding qualifications for construction projects?"

"Look, I knew you must understand." President Cruise spread his hands and said helplessly: "Tell me, am I almost dead?"

Xu Yi smiled, shook his head and said: "Okay, there is really no way out, so you won't come to me to complain to me. Tell me, what are you going to do?"

Seeing that Xu Yi got to the point, Chairman Cruise put away the expressions of anger, unwillingness and helplessness on his face, and said seriously: "Xu Yi, if I move our Amley Chamber of Commerce to the Principality of Standing, do you think it is feasible?" ?"

Although he had already guessed some of Cruise's plans, Xu Yi was still a little dazed when he heard him say this idea with his own ears.

The Amley Chamber of Commerce can no longer be regarded as a chamber of commerce that is particularly influenced by the local area of ​​Banta City because its business spreads all over the country. Other chambers of commerce outside of China may have this idea.

"That's right, when I talked with President Vincent and others in private, they all revealed this meaning." President Cruise nodded in agreement with Xu Yi's guess. "The City Lord's Mansion is not only targeting our Amari Chamber of Commerce, but also the Armani Chamber of Commerce. The Sarank Chamber of Commerce, and even the Falcao Chamber of Commerce have taken actions. The Chamber of Commerce that is dying is far more than our Amari Chamber of Commerce. .”…

Xu Yi couldn't help frowning.

The City Lord’s Mansion obviously has the support of the Kingdom Council for doing so, but it’s nothing more than dealing with Amrit Chamber of Commerce and Armani Chamber of Commerce with insufficient background. They even dare to move the Falcao Chamber of Commerce. Was the Joseph family behind the Falcao Chamber of Commerce also offended?

Or... is this simply an action launched by the stubborn conservative nobles headed by the Stark family in the Lampari Kingdom against the nobles of other forces in the kingdom?

If this is the case, I am afraid that the kingdom of Lampari will not be peaceful.

"Well... If you really want to move to the Principality of Standing, there is no problem." Xu Yi thought for a while, nodded and said: "The relationship with the Principality of Standing is very easy to get through, and I can help you with this. But Have you ever thought about a question? Your situation is different from our Chamber of Commerce, you want to get rid of this regulation of the City Lord’s Mansion, unless you change all the registration places of the Amley Chamber of Commerce.”

"Of course I have thought about it." Chairman Cruise said in a deep voice: "I understand what you are worried about. Indeed, in this way, our Amley Chamber of Commerce can no longer be regarded as the Chamber of Commerce in Bangta City. The foundation has been accumulated over the years. Even in order to avoid the next targeted measures of the Kingdom Council, we may directly become a foreign chamber of commerce."

"Can you accept this result?" Xu Yi asked seriously.

"What if you don't accept it?" Chairman Cruise sighed. "Now those guys have made it clear that they want to put our chamber of commerce to death. If I just wait for death like this, I will be an idiot. I have no ability or qualification to resist. If I can't afford it, I can only hide."

Xu Yi couldn't help but sighed.

Ever since His Royal Highness Prince Eric became king, he had expected such a day, but he never expected that the opponent's actions would be so fast, direct, and even barbaric.

Judging from the present, when they dealt with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce before, they were somewhat restrained, but when they dealt with the Chamber of Commerce of Amley Chamber of Commerce, which was not strong enough in the background, they were extremely rough.

Obviously, the Amrit Chamber of Commerce is not the only Chamber of Commerce they want to deal with. According to the various actions of the Banta City Lord's Mansion in the past six months, their purpose is to completely include Banta City into the ten chambers of commerce, in other words In other words, it is actually included in the grasp of the great nobles behind the ten chambers of commerce.

But the question is, are they really so confident in themselves?

They dare to be sure that if they drive away other chambers of commerce, will they be able to run Bangta City as well as before?

Xu also deeply doubted this.
