Chapter 149 Controlling Energy

Sevini read the booklet almost word for word, slowly and earnestly.

Although this booklet is thin, there are actually quite a few words on it. It took Seweney half an hour to read the last word.

After reading it, Seweini closed his eyes slightly and meditated for a full ten minutes before speaking.

"Xu Yi, what is written on it is the benefits that energy standardization has brought to our Lampari Kingdom, so can you tell me, will this benefit your new flying merchants?"

Xu Yi smiled slightly: "Dear Your Majesty, do you want to hear the truth or lies?"

Sevini glared at Xu Yi angrily: "Maliciously deceiving the king is a capital offense."

Xu Yi chuckled and said, "What if it's not a malicious deception? At least... a deception that doesn't have much impact?"

"That won't work either." Sevini said sternly, "If you don't know what benefits this energy standardization will bring to your new aircraft merchants, the members of the Kingdom Council will definitely not rest assured to follow the proposal and implement this policy."

"So Your Majesty the Queen, do you believe me?" Xu Yi asked again.

"If I didn't believe you, would I have talked so much nonsense with you?" Seweini suddenly sighed softly. "There is no one else here, don't always call me Your Majesty, can't we still call each other by name like before?"

Xu Yi pondered for a moment, then nodded slowly: "That's good. Sevini, the benefits of this energy standardization for the Kingdom of Lampari mainly focus on the unified management and distribution of energy, which can strengthen the jurisdiction and control of the local area. I mentioned this in the report It is clearly written. As for the benefits of energy standardization to our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. If I say that it will save our Chamber of Commerce a lot of energy. Do you believe it?"

"Oh?" Seweney was a little curious. "What energy do you save?"

"For example." Xu Yi paused and said, "It's also a magic fan. Because the quality of the magic crystal is different, and even the size is different, our chamber of commerce must take many aspects into consideration when designing the magic fan. Factors, forced to pay several times more R&D and design costs, as well as redundant production costs.”

"So you want all magic fans to use magic crystals of the same specification?" Seweini asked immediately.

"Yes." Xu Yi nodded. "In fact, our chamber of commerce has been doing this. For example, our chamber of commerce has already opened a magic crystal refining factory, which specializes in the production of magic crystals of specific and uniform specifications. When producing new types of household magic machines, we use our chamber of commerce. This standard is set, so that people who buy our new models of household magic machines must use this refined and standardized magic crystal."

"Well, it's a good idea to do this." Seweini praised: "With your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's current absolute monopoly position in the household magic machinery industry, people who want to use household magic machinery have no choice at all, and must accept your introduction. This standard is forced to accept this new type of standardized magic crystal."

"The truth is not as beautiful as you think." Xu Yi smiled wryly. "Although our Xinfei brand household magic machinery is indeed the most popular household magic machinery, after the launch of this new standard, it has also received a lot of support and understanding. But... this approach still makes many of our Xinfei chamber of commerce veterans Because users do not want to use the standardized magic crystals we launched, they turned to buy household magic machinery produced by other chambers of commerce. Because of this, the sales of the household magic machinery department of our chamber of commerce fell by 13% last month."

"It has dropped so much?" Sevini couldn't help raising his eyebrows with a surprised expression.

In terms of household magic machinery. The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is undoubtedly the top, and it is not a little bit ahead of other chambers of commerce.

Although the household magic machinery of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is generally more expensive than other brands of household magic machinery, but because of the excellent performance and quality of Xinfei brand household magic machinery, when people buy household magic machinery, the first choice is always It's Xinfeipai.

However, under such circumstances, the sales of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's household magic machinery actually dropped by as much as 13%, which is really surprising.

"That's not right..." Seweney said in bewilderment. "The use of this standard magic crystal can obviously extend the working time of household magic machinery, and even prolong the service life of household magic machinery. Why are those people still unwilling to accept it? Could it be that you didn't publicize the performance of this standardized magic crystal?" it is good?"

"No, because we want to launch this standard, our chamber of commerce has invested at least 200,000 gold coins in promoting the benefits of standardized magic crystals. But... For many customers who buy household magic machines, what they care about most is The most important thing is whether it is easy to use, and it is inconvenient to use. The household magic machines of our chamber of commerce can only use standardized magic crystals, and there are not many places where you can buy standardized magic crystals, which makes them inconvenient to use. make them give up."

"Impossible." Seweini suddenly shook her head firmly. "Xu Yi, it is absolutely impossible for you not to expect this kind of thing, why do you still do this?"

Xu Yi curled his lips, smiled and said: "Okay, I have indeed expected this kind of result, so this time is actually an experiment I did. I just want to see, relying on our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce alone, Can it successfully promote energy standardization?"

"Then it failed, so you came to me for help?" Seweini looked at Xu Yi with a half-smile.

"Well...Queen..." Xu Yi immediately changed his words when he saw Sevini's eyes waiting. "Hey, Sevini, you are my good friend. It is my duty as a friend to share my worries. What's more, this matter is also of great benefit to the Lampari Kingdom. You will not refuse me?"

Sevini stared at Xu Yi for a while, then looked down at the thin booklet, pondered for a long time, and then nodded slowly.

"Okay, even if I agree to you, what do you actually plan to do? If you want to forcefully push your energy standard without any additional means, it is absolutely impossible to pass it in the Kingdom Council."

"Of course." Seeing that Seweini finally nodded, Xu Yi showed a confident smile. "First of all, I suggest Sevini that you set up a chamber of commerce in the name of the royal family."

"There is already a chamber of commerce under the name of the royal family, and Reeves is in charge. Don't you know him?" Sevini asked in surprise.

"It's different." Xu Yi shook his head. "This chamber of commerce must clearly tell everyone that it belongs to the royal family, and the business operated by this chamber of commerce can only be involved by the Kingdom of Lampari, and no other chamber of commerce is allowed to intervene."

Sevini was taken aback: "So overbearing? But the noble council has regulations that the nobles are not allowed to do business directly, even the royal family."

"It doesn't matter, no matter what the name is, you just need to pass on this information. In short, no one else is allowed to access this business."

Sevini frowned slightly: "Is it so serious?"

Xu Yi nodded heavily: "Of course. As for Seweney, I can tell you with certainty that this business involves the foundation of the entire continent in the future. Only by controlling this business can you be considered to have control of real power. If you want the royal family to continue If you want to control the Lampari Kingdom, you must completely control this business in your own hands."

Sevini looked at Xu Yi in surprise.

I've known Xu Yi for so long, and although I've seen Xu Yi look serious and serious many times, I've never seen Xu Yi put on such a serious expression like now.

Matching his tone, Seweini knew very well that in Xu Yi's mind, the importance of the business operated by this chamber of commerce was likely far beyond her imagination.

After a pause, Seweini nodded lightly: "Okay, I can consider it. But you haven't told me, what is the business of this chamber of commerce?"

"Generally speaking, it is energy. The name of this chamber of commerce can actually be named Lampari Energy Chamber of Commerce." Xu Yi replied.

"Energy? Is it the magic crystal?" Seweini was even more surprised. "Magic crystals are everywhere, what is there to pay attention to?"

Xu Yi shook his head: "Sevini, if you still have this kind of thinking, the Lampari Kingdom will probably miss the best opportunity to rise. I am here to make a bold prediction. In the future, on the Sainz continent, control Energy is equivalent to controlling the entire continent. This energy is just a general term, and for now, it actually refers to the magic crystal."

Sevini pondered, his expression still full of doubts.

But after staring at Xu Yi's firm face for a while, the confusion on Seweini's face gradually faded away.

"Okay, I believe you." As if to strengthen his confidence, Seweini nodded vigorously. "Xu Yi, your predictions so far have never failed. I naturally choose to believe in your prediction about this energy source. But if the energy source only refers to magic crystals, it may be impossible to completely control it. Because on this continent, Magic crystals are literally everywhere."

"That's why I put forward the proposal of energy standardization, isn't it?" Xu Yi smiled and nodded the thin booklet on the table. "Although magic crystals are everywhere, standard magic crystals that meet the standards of high purity, high concentration, and refinement are not everywhere."

Seweini was the only one to focus, and then his eyes lit up.

"Xu Yi, are you willing to hand over the technology of refining magic crystals?"

Xu Yi smiled slightly and held out his hand to Seweini.

"Dear Your Majesty, would you like to represent the Lampari Kingdom and jointly open the first magic repair station on the Sainz Continent with our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?" (To be continued...)
