Chapter 36: You Can't Get Around the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce
Ambassador Hakan was just passing through a small town in Noxus. ◎∑top◎∑point◎∑small◎∑say,
Under the hospitality of Director Gnar, after having lunch upstairs in a newly opened restaurant in the town half a month ago, Ambassador Hakain and Vice President Riley embarked on the road to the Candela Empire again. .
This time, Vice President Riley will accompany Ambassador Hakain to Wimbledon, the capital of the Candela Empire, and meet with several officials under the Candela Empire Government Affairs Office.
The Amrit Chamber of Commerce tried to make the Candela Empire realize the convenience and necessity of roads through the relationship of Ambassador Hakan, and then paved roads in the Candela Empire.
According to the plan, if all goes well, after one and a half years, after the road paving of the Amrit Chamber of Commerce in the Principality of Norton is completed, the Amrit Chamber of Commerce and the Candela Empire should have reached a cooperative relationship, and they can enter the Candela Empire and continue this paving of roads.
But that will be more than a year later, and there is no need for Director Gnar to worry about it yet.
After seeing off Ambassador Hakain and Vice President Riley, Director Gnar came to the Mirror Lake in the northwest of the Noxus town.
In Mingjing Lake, not far from the entrance of the Anfeier River, there used to be a small pier for docking ships on the Mirando River from Mingjing Lake and the upstream Anfeier River from the lower reaches of Mingjing Lake.
However, just three months ago, before the Amley Chamber of Commerce entered the Principality of Norton and started laying roads, a fleet of ships came from the Principality of Mirando upstream and remodeled the pier, expanding the size of the pier by ten. More than double.
During this period of time, the cement, steel bars, and a large number of engineering magic machinery used by the Amrit Chamber of Commerce to lay the road here, except for some of them were transported through the already paved road in the Principality of Mirando. Most of the rest are after entering Mirror Lake through the Mirando River. Then ship from this pier.
This time Director Gnar came to the pier. It is also to welcome a batch of engineering materials that have been scheduled to arrive today.
But when he came to the pier and waited for a while, he was surprised to find that a huge fleet of at least twenty ships sailed from the upper reaches of Mingjing Lake.
What surprised him even more was that this fleet was actually composed of medium-sized cargo magic ships that had been launched by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for only four months and had not yet become popular.
The cargo capacity of this medium-sized cargo magic ship far exceeds that of the old-fashioned ordinary river wooden ships, and the speed is several times higher. Once launched. It was welcomed by all river transport chambers of commerce in neighboring countries.
However, only the Porter Chamber of Commerce in the Lampari Kingdom can obtain this medium-sized cargo magic ship from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
After the Porter Chamber of Commerce purchased a full thirty medium-sized cargo magic ships from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it quickly seized a large amount of river transport business in the Lampari Kingdom in just a few months. The small broken chamber of commerce in Tacheng has become a first-class chamber of commerce in the Lampari Kingdom.
When the Amley Chamber of Commerce delivered engineering materials to the Norton Chamber of Commerce, because of the long distance, it was transported through the Porter Chamber of Commerce every time. Director Gnar was not surprised.
However, the amount of engineering materials brought in each time before was not too much, probably only one, or at most two medium-sized cargo magic ships were needed. Why did so many more than twenty ships come in one breath this time?
You know, the Porter Chamber of Commerce only has thirty medium-sized cargo magic ships in total. This time sending more than 20 ships in one go, isn't it almost equivalent to sending all the transportation power of the Porter Chamber of Commerce?
As a chamber of commerce based mainly on river transport, wouldn't it be so unwise?
Director Gnar watched in wonder as the fleet braved the wind and waves on the water of Mingjing Lake and sailed in quickly.
When the fleet approached the pier, the first medium-sized cargo magic ship docked, and after a few people got off it, Director Gnar was even more puzzled.
He recognized the two leaders who came down as the person in charge of the Amly Chamber of Commerce who were in charge of delivering engineering materials every time, but the ones following these two people were obviously not members of the Amly Chamber of Commerce.
What's even more incredible is that after this group of people disembarked from the boat, two dwarves and an elf also came down!
Director Gnar stared at the two dwarves and the elf man with wide eyes, full of doubts in his heart.
Although because of the example set by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the chambers of commerce in the Lampari Kingdom and several other countries have gradually accepted the employment of other races to enter the chamber of commerce, but apart from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, they have never heard of any elves who are willing to join the chamber of commerce. Join the Human Chamber of Commerce.
The clothes worn by the elf and the two dwarves in front of him are different in size, but they are very similar in style, color and workmanship, and they are clearly the same uniform.
Coupled with the eye-catching half-wing logo on their chests, it clearly shows that all three of them are from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
But... What are the people from Xinfei Chamber of Commerce doing here?
It wasn't that there were rumors before that the Norton Kingdom lost confidence in the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce because of the previous strike and the subsequent large-scale layoffs, and gave up cooperating with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Are there any other chambers of commerce in the Kingdom of Lampari?
Director Gnar was full of doubts, and when the two persons in charge of transporting engineering materials from the Amley Chamber of Commerce came over, he quickly pulled them aside and asked.
It took him a while to figure out what was going on.
It turns out that this time the Porter Chamber of Commerce sent out such a big battle, and more than 20 medium-sized cargo magic ships came to the Principality of Norton. In addition to delivering engineering materials to the construction site of the Amley Chamber of Commerce here, the most important thing is Deliver various related materials for the Anke Magic Chamber of Commerce.
The Anke Magic Chamber of Commerce is the new partner Norton Kingdom has chosen after abandoning the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce this time.
According to the agreement reached between the Anke Magic Chamber of Commerce and the Principality of Norton, the Anke Magic Chamber of Commerce will invest in the construction of three household magic machinery factories near the small town of Noxus in advance, namely the Magic Fan Factory, the Magic Lighting Factory and a bicycle assembly factory. .
Because this investment is no small matter for the Anke Magic Chamber of Commerce, the Anke Magic Chamber of Commerce attaches great importance to it, and the chairman Anke Allen even personally escorted the supplies.
As for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, in addition to two dwarves and an elf, there are also three human engineers. Their role is to assist the Anke Magic Chamber of Commerce in completing the construction of these three factories.
On the surface, this is because the Anke Magic Chamber of Commerce does not have enough experience in foreign investment, so the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce sent corresponding personnel to assist.
However, according to the private conversation between Director Gnar and Anke Allen, he learned that the three factories built by the Anke Magic Chamber of Commerce must be built in accordance with the standards set by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. In addition to assisting, the most important role of several people is probably supervision.
Director Gnar doesn't think there is any problem with this point.
The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has always been trying to promote the various standards they have formulated, and hopes that other magic machinery chambers of commerce will also follow this standard.
And other magic machinery guilds, even if they don't care about the absolute leading position and authority of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the field of magic machinery, will have scruples because they have to invest a lot of manpower and material resources in research and development if they deviate from this standard, so no commerce guild will do not comply.
So this time the Anke Magic Chamber of Commerce and the Principality of Norton reached a cooperation agreement. When they came to the Principality of Norton to invest in the construction of factories, Anke Allen even asked the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to send personnel to assist in supervising the construction of their three factories. There is no taboo at all.
After figuring out these things, Director Gnar felt a little funny.
I really don't know what the Principality of Norton thinks. Instead of choosing to cooperate with the well-established Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it chooses the Anke Magic Chamber of Commerce for cooperation.
As a result, the Anke Magic Chamber of Commerce still had to listen to the arrangement of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. After a long time of trouble, the Norton Chamber of Commerce couldn't get around the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
But after thinking about it, even if it is as strong as the Amley Chamber of Commerce, which can already be regarded as a super-class large chamber of commerce in the Lampari Kingdom, it must cooperate closely with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce everywhere, and it can even be said that it is completely inseparable from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. .
For example, for the current most important road construction project for the Amly Chamber of Commerce, the cement, steel bars and various engineering magic machinery needed for it all come from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
If any one is missing, Director Gnar doesn't know how to lay the road.
Leaving aside work matters, just talking about the situation in life, as far as today is concerned, Director Gnar has used magic stoves, magic fans, magic air conditioners, magic cars, various magic lamps, and small magic lights. water pump...
Which of these magical machines is not from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?
Thinking of this, Director Gnar suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
So before I knew it, the various products of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce had completely dominated everything in my life?
What shocked him even more was that he had no resistance to these various magical machines at all.
On the contrary, once he loses these magical machines, he might become completely clueless about how to live.
"I really don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing..."
Director Gnar watched the workers move the supplies off the medium-sized cargo magic ship little by little, and then watched Anke? Shake your head.
In fact, putting aside these messy and redundant thoughts, he had to admit that the appearance of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce brought so many useful magic machines, which indeed brought infinite convenience to his life.
Anyway, this should be a good thing.
On the contrary, the Principality of Norton insisted on avoiding the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for some unknown reason, and chose to cooperate with the Anke Magic Chamber of Commerce, but it really might not be a good thing... (to be continued...)
