Chapter 159 Filling the Vacancies

The emergence of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has driven the magic machinery boom in the surrounding countries in the southwest corner of the Sainz continent, and has had a great impact on several surrounding countries. ,

However, apart from the impact of magic machines, the biggest change brought to these countries by the emergence of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is the improvement of transportation.

Highway, this brand new road did not attract much attention when it first appeared in Bangta City.

But when roads were built in the Lampari Kingdom and gradually connected all the cities in the Lampari Kingdom, people immediately discovered the great convenience brought by the roads.

Cooperating with the magic locomotive developed by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, a brand new road transportation network has been formed in the Lampari Kingdom.

Compared with the previous ones where horse-drawn carriages drove bumpy dirt and gravel roads, all kinds of magic locomotives have been greatly improved in speed and comfort when passing on flat and spacious roads. ran to the back of the head.

So after seeing the convenience brought by the road, the countries around the Lampari Kingdom followed suit and invited the Amrit Chamber of Commerce to enter their country to build roads.

Today, the total mileage of roads in the Kingdom of Lampari has exceeded 20,000 kilometers. Not only has every city been connected by roads, even almost every small town has been connected by roads.

The second place is not the Kingdom of Rulson, which is larger than the Kingdom of Lampari, but the Principality of Standing.

The total mileage of roads in the Rulson Kingdom barely exceeded 10,000 kilometers at the beginning of this year, but the total mileage of roads in the Principality of Standing had already exceeded 15,000 kilometers as early as the middle of last year.

If you look at it from a high altitude, the roads in the Principality of Standing look like spider webs. Densely replaced almost all the roads that could be replaced. Roads have even been built where there were no roads before. Guarantee that you can reach another place by road from any place in the Principality of Standing.

All of this, of course, is due to the huge influence brought by the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the Principality of Standing.

In addition, several roads have been built in other neighboring countries, such as the Duchy of Drake, the Duchy of Mirando, and the Duchy of Norton, at least to ensure that the main roads in the country are replaced with roads.

Even the Falk Kingdom, which had formal contact with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce the year before last, has built three roads that run through the country, and now there are as many as eleven. Work is under construction with an estimated total mileage of more than 2,000 kilometers.

According to the Chamber of Commerce report made by the Amrit Chamber of Commerce through the "Lampari Weekly", it is expected that the laying of the basic road transportation network in the surrounding countries will be completed within five years, and these countries will be connected by road.

Once this plan is completed, even if you start from the Principality of Standing in the southwest corner to the Kingdom of Falk in the northeast, the total mileage in the middle is even close to the full distance of 2,500 kilometers, but you can always drive on the road.

If you use the new fastest magic car launched by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it only takes one and a half days to arrive.

A few years ago, this distance was simply out of reach for almost everyone.

It can be said that the emergence of highways has greatly shortened the distance between countries. These several countries in the southwest corner of the Sainz continent have become far more closely connected than before.

However, all of this has nothing to do with the Sak Kingdom.

the reason is simple. The Kingdom of Sark and the Kingdom of Lampari have always had a hostile relationship, but the Amrit Chamber of Commerce is a chamber of commerce affiliated to the Kingdom of Lampari.

Coupled with the relationship between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Sak Kingdom, it is of course impossible for the Amli Chamber of Commerce to enter the Sak Kingdom to build roads.

So when other surrounding countries are increasing their investment in laying roads and working hard to create a brand-new road transportation network, the Kingdom of Sark can only watch helplessly, no matter how much they desire in their hearts, they are helpless.

However, with the establishment of a free trade zone between the Lampari Kingdom and the Sark Kingdom, the relationship between the two countries has loosened, but it has given the Sark Kingdom a glimmer of hope.

However, the Kingdom of Sark had repeatedly expressed and hinted to the Kingdom of Lampari before, and even sent people to contact the Amley Chamber of Commerce in private, but they were always rejected, which made the Kingdom of Sark almost completely give up.

This time, the Kingdom of Lampari suddenly declared war on the Kingdom of Sark, which made some people in the Kingdom of Sark who were concerned about the road completely cut off their hope in this regard.

The relationship between the two parties has become so bad, how could the Kingdom of Lampari allow the Amrit Chamber of Commerce to help the Kingdom of Sark build roads?

However, no one expected that the attitude of the Lampari Kingdom would undergo a 180-degree change.

After taking the initiative to propose an armistice agreement to the Kingdom of Sark, the Kingdom of Lampari not only proposed to rebuild the free trade zone, but even loosened in many other aspects.

Building roads is one of them.

This time, although the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is not affiliated to the Chamber of Commerce of the Lampari Kingdom in name, it led the Lampari Kingdom's caravan as a representative. In the caravan behind, there are actually representatives of the Amley Chamber of Commerce. .

After mentioning the construction of the road to Director Erwin, Xu Yi waved behind him, and Chairman Cruise, who had been looking at this side, walked over with a smile.

"Director Irwin, this is Chairman Cruise of the Amley Chamber of Commerce. Cruise, this is Director Irwin of the Sark Kingdom Commerce Department." Xu Yi introduced the two of them.

Chairman Cruise stretched out his hand with a smile, and as soon as he stretched halfway, Director Erwin grasped it, and said with some excitement: "President Cruise, it's a pleasure to meet you, we Sark The Kingdom has long been looking forward to the arrival of you and the Amley Chamber of Commerce."

Chairman Cruise laughed: "Director Erwin, you are too polite. Actually, why didn't we want to come here a long time ago? In the road traffic network map planned by our chamber of commerce, the Sak Kingdom has always been missing, but It really makes me feel uneasy all the time.”

Director Erwin gave a dry laugh, and held President Cruise's hand even harder.

"Since this is the case, let us fill this vacancy together this time. What do you think?"

"Of course. I'm here this time to fill it in!" President Cruise replied quite proudly.

Xu Yi smiled, turned his head and looked at the people behind Director Erwin, and asked loudly, "Which one is Mayor Puyol?"

Mayor Puyol, who had been smiling apologetically, came out with a flattered expression on his face.

"President Xu, what are your orders?"

Xu Yi smiled slightly, waved his hands and said, "I can't talk about orders. But Mayor Puyol, since the people in the caravan have already arrived, let's stop wasting time and start."

Mayor Puyol cast a questioning look at Director Erwin.

Director Erwin's face was serious: "It depends on what I do, I do what I have to do, and everything is under the orders of President Xu." After speaking, he turned to Xu Yi, and immediately changed his face with a friendly smile. "President Xu, please."

Xu Yi shook his head: "Director Erwin, you made a mistake. I am not the protagonist this time, but they are the protagonists."

Seeing Xu Yi pointing to the Lampari Kingdom caravan behind him, Director Erwin was startled, then slapped his forehead, making a look of sudden realization.

"Yes, yes, look at my memory. Then...President Cruise, let us go and invite the representatives of the chamber of commerce that came with you."

Chairman Cruise glanced at Xu Yi, seeing him nodding slightly, he smiled and walked towards the caravan behind with Director Erwin.

According to the plan previously made by the Kingdom of Lampari and the Kingdom of Sark, today the Kingdom of Lampari sent such a huge caravan into the Kingdom of Sark, which means the re-opening of the free trade zone between the two countries.

Although Xu Yi is the most important representative of the chamber of commerce in this caravan, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is not a chamber of commerce affiliated to the Lampari Kingdom after all, but it has no way to really represent the Lampari Kingdom to participate in the upcoming extremely A symbolic and political free trade zone restart ceremony.

He came to the Kingdom of Sak this time, in fact, the more important function is to express a gesture, which means that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will formally cooperate with the Kingdom of Sak, and also indirectly shows that the Kingdom of Lampari is showing great support to the Kingdom of Sak this time. The kingdom is open to cooperation with sincerity.

Therefore, in the following series of ceremonies, although Xu Yi has always been referring to being a bystander, in fact, whether it is Director Erwin or Mayor Puyol, as long as he has any free time, he will focus on him. body.

After all, Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is the real protagonist of this cooperation.

It's just that the place where the protagonist is most valued by the Sak Kingdom is not reflected here.

After the grand ceremony was over, the caravans of the Lampari Kingdom moved their goods into various shops in the free trade zone that had been prepared in the town of Taklin.

Many of these caravans are chambers of commerce that had a stronghold in the town of Taklin before, and many of them have never been here before. This time, because the free trade zone between the two countries has been reopened and the content of free trade has been expanded, make them follow.

For these new chambers of commerce, the Kingdom of Sark and the small town of Taklin jointly built a large number of new shops, expanding the building of this free trade zone by more than two times.

The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce also acquired a large shop in it, and intends to use it as the first exclusive store established by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the Sak Kingdom.

Of course, what this specialty store sells is just the magical machines of various household fields from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

As for the military magic machinery that the Kingdom of Sark is most concerned about...how could it be sold in public.

After attending the ceremony, Xu Yi did not go to the grand luncheon prepared by Mayor Puyol with everyone, but quietly followed a middle-aged man who came with Mayor Erwin to Puyol The mayor's private estate outside the town.

As soon as he walked into the hall of the manor, Xu Yi felt a real murderous aura coming towards him. (To be continued..)
