Chapter 53
Seeing Twisty turn around after throwing away those invitations, Xu Yi already had a preliminary plan in mind.
"Give me the annual financial report submitted by Sebastian." Xu Yi said.
Twisty didn't need to rummage at all, and directly pulled out a thick report from a side cabinet and handed it to Xu Yi.
This is also one of Twisty's advantages as an elf. Her memory is extremely good, and she can remember everything clearly no matter where it is placed. As long as Xu Yi asks, she can find what Xu Yi needs immediately. s things.
Moreover, she also arranged all the documents and other items in an extremely neat and orderly manner, even if Xu Yi came to look for them in person, he could find the documents he was looking for without too much effort.
With her obedient and quiet personality, it can be said that she has all the necessary qualities of an excellent secretary.
What's more, she has a sweet appearance and is very eye-catching when placed by her side. If she were on earth, she would be the most perfect candidate for secretary in the minds of all bosses.
Xu Yi didn't have much interest in Twisty at first, thinking that she was deliberately arranged by Elder Lisanya, so his attitude towards her was neither cold nor cold.
But after getting along for more than half a year, Xu Yi has gradually gotten used to her being by his side.
Sometimes Xu Yi even thought that if Twisty left now, it might take him a while to get used to it.
Shaking his head to get rid of these chaotic thoughts in his mind, Xu Yi focused on the annual financial report in his hand.
Although it is only the first ten days of December now, according to the past practice, Sebastian, the new treasurer of the Feifei Chamber of Commerce, will submit an annual financial report of the Chamber of Commerce at this time every year.
The report is not intended to be the final annual financial tally. It's just an evaluation report made by Sebastian based on the financial situation of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce within this year. The content includes not only a part of annual financial statistics. It also includes an overall financial assessment and a financial forecast for the coming year.
Although it is only a rough assessment, it is very important for Xu Yi to designate the Chamber of Commerce's plan for the coming year, so she has always attached great importance to this report.
From this report, it can be seen that until November this year, the total profit of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the eleven months of the year has exceeded 30 million gold coins.
Since December has entered the cold winter season, it is the peak season for the sales of household magic machinery in the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce every year, so the monthly profit in the whole year has always been second only to the two months in early summer, and it is conservatively estimated that it will exceed three million gold coins.
If it is calculated like this. The total profit of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce this year will exceed 33 million gold coins, an increase of nearly 30% compared to last year. It can be said that the development is as smooth as ever.
However, if we look at the subdivided data in the report, we will find that Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's profit growth this year is mainly concentrated on military magic machinery.
Compared with last year, the profit of military magic machinery has increased by more than 4 million gold coins, fully accounting for more than half of the total profit increase for the year.
And according to the current situation, as long as the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can increase its production capacity next year, the profit increase in military magic machinery next year will be even more impressive.
Therefore, in the internal discussions at the high-level meeting of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, including Kennard, they all suggested that the Chamber of Commerce should invest more energy in military magic machinery next year. Do our best to increase the relevant production capacity, so as to achieve a substantial increase in the profits of the chamber of commerce.
However, Xu Yi rejected the proposal.
Xu also said. Although it is inevitable to increase investment in military magic machinery, Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will still focus on civilian magic machinery, and this will not change.
According to Xu Yi's estimation, next year the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will officially open the doors of the two empires, the Candela Empire and the Maro Empire. The huge demand for civil-use magic machines, especially household magic machines, should be prepared early.
Although others did not doubt Xu Yi's judgment, many high-level executives of the chamber of commerce were still somewhat shaken in the face of the huge profits brought by military magic machines.
Xu Yi now wants to shift other people's attention from military magic machines to civilian magic machines, first of all, he must change the thinking of these people inside.
"Twisty, you asked Sebastian about financial knowledge before, how are you learning now?" Xu Yi asked.
Twisty hesitated, seemingly embarrassed.
"I've only learned some of the most basic knowledge, and it's far from there."
"Then can you understand this report?" Xu Yi asked again.
"Well, no problem." Twisty nodded. "Supervisor Sebastian first taught me, starting from financial reports."
"That's good. Come on, come here." Xu Yi waved to Twisty, beckoning her to stand beside him, then pointed to a page of the financial report in his hand and said, "Do you understand what this means? "
Twisty glanced at Xu Yi in surprise, and replied: "Here is a description of the property change trend of the Chamber of Commerce from June to November. From the data curve, there is an obvious trend in August and September. It increased, and then began to drop sharply in October. According to the analysis of Director Sebastian, this is because the Rulson Kingdom ordered a large number of military magic machines and other related materials from the chamber of commerce in August and September."
"Well, that's right." Xu Yi nodded. "But do you see a problem? This curve doesn't look very reasonable, does it?"
"Hmm...Director Sebastian said that this was due to the war between the Kingdom of Luerxun and the country that looked down, and it cannot be used as a reference under normal circumstances."
"He's right. Twisty, I'm asking you to make two reports in the same style as this report, one is about the profit analysis report of the chamber of commerce in terms of military magic machinery and civil magic machinery, you can do it Is it?" Xu Yi asked.
Twisty looked at Xu Yi in surprise, didn't ask why, but pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "I can't make it as detailed as the report produced by Director Sebas."
"You are not required to do exactly the same as this report. You only need to express the most basic meaning. Can you do it?"
Twisty frowned slightly. After thinking about it for a while, he nodded: "There should be no problem."
"That's good." Xu Yi stuffed the financial report in Twisty's arms. "This is a test of your financial ability. When you return to the Moon Shadow Tribe, Elder Lisanya will definitely let you take charge of this aspect. It's better for you to get used to it sooner."
"Yes, my lord." Twisty nodded in response.
"By the way, speaking of your return to the Moon Shadow Tribe, I suddenly thought of a question, when will Yanis come back?" Xu Yi asked suddenly.
Twisty blinked: "This... I don't know."
"Then you can contact Elder Lisanya for me. Just say that I miss Yanis. If there is nothing wrong with her, let her come back."
Twisty looked at Xu Yi silently for a long while, and asked hesitantly, "Master President, actually, I've always wanted to ask you a question. Are you...are you really in love with Yanis?"
"Why do you ask this question?" Xu Yi asked in surprise.
"Because I'm really curious," Twisty replied honestly. "We have been taught since childhood that humans and elves are two completely different races. Humans have always been hostile to us elves. Let us try not to contact humans, or even appear in front of elves. But I think... Asia Nisi should really fall in love with you, the president. So I want to know, do you love Yanis, the president?"
"The education you received in the clan before is outdated. If you change it to the present, don't talk about others, even Elder Lisanya won't tell you to try not to contact humans anymore, right?"
"Well, the elder is now asking us to get in touch with humans as much as possible, and try to learn from humans some advantages that our elves lack. She sent me here, hoping that I can learn a lot of good things from you, President."
"Oh, Elder Lisanya still thinks highly of me." Xu Yi smiled and continued: "Let's go back to the question just now. Ask me whether I am Aianis... This question is not easy to answer, because we humans The definition of love is not the same as that of your elves. I can only tell you that Yanis is very important to me now. If someone else wants to hurt her, then I will never agree. I am willing to spend my life with She's been with her forever, and she's already one of my most important family members. Do you get it when you say that?"
"I can probably understand." Twisty nodded. "But Mr. President, you don't have only one wife, Yanis, do you? Didn't you always say that Miss Steele is the most important person in your heart?"
Xu Yi was a little embarrassed, coughed lightly and said, "This... Steele is indeed the most important to me, but Yanis is also very important."
"Really?" Twisty seemed suspicious. "We elves will only have one life and death partner in our lifetime, but can you humans have more than one?"
Xu Yi was even more embarrassed: "Not everyone is like this, after all, people are different."
"Oh..." Twisty looked half-understood. After thinking for a while, he smiled again: "Okay, Mr. Chairman, I will answer your question just now. Yanis is at the most critical moment now. Period, I don't think the elders will let her come back now."
"What is the most critical period?" Xu Yi was very puzzled. "I have asked Elder Lisanya this question many times, but she has been refusing to tell me. It's really strange. Is there any need to keep it mysterious?"
Twisty showed a slightly mischievous smile: "Master President, you don't need to worry. If there are no accidents, you will know in half a year."
Seeing that Twisty also had no comment, Xu Yi rolled his eyes helplessly.
"Well then, you tell Elder Lisanya for me, if she refuses to tell me why she refuses to let Agnes come back, I will refuse to provide support to your tribe's territory in the southwest of the Sark Kingdom."
Twisty's eyes widened, and there was a trace of shock and anger on his small face.
"Master President, you...you are doing this for personal gain!"
Xu Yi laughed, thinking that I'm just doing the public good for my own benefit, what can you do to me? (To be continued..)
