Chapter 93 The Situation in the Kingdom of Rulson Is Terrible

After lunch, a delegation from the Luerxun Kingdom quietly arrived at the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

After the reception, the head of the delegation, Duke Boris, the chairman of the Rulson Kingdom's Parliament, and two deputy heads were invited to Xu Yi's private estate as guests.

"President Xu, this is the first time I have come to the Principality of Standing. What I have seen along the way, it is true that being famous is not as good as meeting each other. It is far more amazing than what I imagined." As soon as he sat down, Duke Boris Then he smiled and complimented.

Xu Yi looked at the smiling and extremely polite Duke Boris, and felt a little amused in his heart.

When he went to the Kingdom of Luerson to investigate, he met twice this noble and respected Duke in the Kingdom of Luerson, but the Duke of Boris didn't give him any good looks during the two meetings. .

Now he not only took the initiative to lead the delegation to the Principality of Standing, but even showed such a flattering look to Xu Yi, the gap is really obvious.

The reason for such a significant change is of course related to the purpose of his visit this time.

Although the Kingdom of Luerson has continuously repelled the invasion of the Candela Empire, and made other countries on the entire Sainz continent look at the Kingdom of Luerson with admiration, but this does not mean that the Kingdom of Luerson can defeat Candela empire.

Although the Candela Empire did not continue to organize the third invasion out of prudent considerations, the Candela Empire, which attached great importance to the Rulson Kingdom, deployed heavy troops on the border between the two countries to strictly guard against it, leading the Rulson Kingdom to the Candela Empire. All passages in this direction are completely blocked.

At the same time, the Candela Empire officially listed the Luerxun Kingdom as a hostile country. And called on other countries in the mainland to unanimously blockade the Luerxun Kingdom.

Because of the threat of the Candela Empire. Except for being close to the Maro Empire. Apart from the several countries that supported the Maro Empire, almost all other countries that were close to the Rulson Kingdom agreed.

Even the Lampari Kingdom, which had a good relationship with the Rulson Kingdom before and secretly helped the Rulson Kingdom in the previous invasion of the Candela Empire, did not object to this.

Of course, this is mainly because the Lampari Kingdom and the Candela Empire have signed a mutual trade and cooperation agreement. The Candela Empire now lists the Lampari Kingdom as an ally, so it is naturally impossible for the Lampari Kingdom to have a close relationship with the Rulhu Kingdom. .

Because the closest countries that supported the Maro Empire and opposed the Candela Empire were more than a thousand kilometers away from the Rulson Kingdom, it can be said that the current Rulson Kingdom is almost completely isolated.

The only exception is the Duchy of Standing.

The blockade against the Kingdom of Rulson proposed by the Candela Empire. The Kingdom of Standing has not given a positive response. Instead, it has continued to trade with the Kingdom of Rulson as before, and it seems that it has not paid attention to the warnings and threats of the Candela Empire.

Now that the Kingdom of Rulson is coming to the door, it is of course hoping to get some help from the Principality of Standing to help them deal with the blockade brought by the Candela Empire.

This is also the reason why the standard of the delegation is so high this time, and the head of the delegation is actually held by Duke Boris, the chairman of the Kingdom of Rulson Kingdom Parliament, and the reason why Duke Boris will be so polite after seeing Xu Yi.

"My lord, you are flattering me." Xu Yi smiled. "I don't know what the scene of Luerxun Kingdom is like now?"

Hearing this rhetorical question, the faces of Duke Boris and the two deputy heads beside him instantly became extremely ugly.

Duke Boris laughed dryly, shook his head and said: "It's not very good. President Xu. I think you should be very clear about the current situation. Because of the blockade of the Candela Empire, the situation in the kingdom has been seriously affected. Recently In the past few months, the kingdom’s exports of goods have been almost zero, and many merchants in the kingdom have gone bankrupt because of this, and even many committed suicide.”

"Yeah..." Earl Gandall, one of the deputy heads beside him and one of the deputy directors of the Commercial Department of the Kingdom of Rulson, sighed deeply. "The commercial tax in the kingdom has dropped by at least 60% in the past few months. If this continues, the kingdom's finances this year may be unimaginable. The plans originally planned for next year may also be stranded because of this, which is very detrimental to the entire kingdom. "

"Not only in terms of business and taxation, but in fact the people's livelihood is the most affected. Although with the farmland magic machinery and chemical fertilizers, the food production in the kingdom is guaranteed, and there is no need to worry about famine. But in addition, the urgently needed food in the kingdom All kinds of supplies are seriously scarce because of the blockade.”

The other deputy head is Earl Unker, director of the Ministry of Public Health of the Kingdom of Rulson, and his concern is naturally different from that of the director of the Commercial Department.

"Currently, the most serious problem is the medicines. In the past, most of the medicines in our Luerxun Kingdom relied on medicinal herbs imported from other countries. Now because of the blockade, many key medicinal herbs can no longer be purchased. Herbal remedies are far from enough to solve the problem. And..."

Speaking of this, Earl Onke looked sad, and there was even a trace of tears in his eyes.

"Last month, there was a flood in the southeast of the kingdom, and the disaster was severe. It was also accompanied by the outbreak of the plague. When we left the kingdom, more than 200 people had died due to the plague. If the problem of medicines cannot be solved immediately, the number of dead people will only increase. many……"

Duke Boris and Earl Gandall also had heavy faces and melancholy expressions, which confirmed what Earl Onker said was true.

Xu Yi was slightly taken aback.

Although he knew that the Rulson Kingdom was greatly affected by the blockade of the Candela Empire, he did not expect it to be so serious, which really surprised him.

"President Xu..."

Duke Boris was about to speak, but was interrupted by Xu Yi raising his hand.

"I will arrange for the Chamber of Commerce's transport fleet to deliver a shipment of herbs to your country as soon as possible. This is my aid to the people in your country who are suffering from the plague."

The three Duke Boris were slightly taken aback, and then they were overjoyed.

Earl Onke grabbed Xu Yi's hand excitedly: "Really? That's great! Chairman Xu, if there are enough herbs, many people can be saved!"

Xu Yi secretly sighed in his heart, thinking that no matter whether the three people in front of him are acting or not, it is impossible to lie about the disaster they said, because it is not easy to hide such things, as long as Xu Yi is willing to inquire, it will be very easy to get Know.

In the face of such a serious disaster, it is obvious that saving lives is the most important thing, and any other problems can be put aside.

What also made him sigh was that although the Rulson Kingdom was able to repel the Candela Empire on the frontal battlefield, its overall national strength was after all too far behind the Candela Empire, so that it was now being targeted by the Candela Empire. Even the basic livelihood of the people has a big problem.

"This...President Xu...the kingdom is currently in financial difficulty, so the cost of this ship of herbs...cough, I'm afraid I can't pay immediately. But don't worry, use..." Earl Gandall suddenly said awkwardly.

Xu Yi shook his head: "As I said just now, this is aid to the people of your country. It is free in itself, and you don't need to pay any money. In addition, I will also send some living materials over to you. When the time comes, arrange someone to collect them together."

The three of them looked at each other, Duke Boris nodded, and said sincerely: "President Xu, the assistance that your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has provided this time will always be remembered in our Luerson Kingdom, and we..."

Xu Yi raised his hand again and interrupted him.

"Your Excellency, two, I need to declare one thing. This free aid will be carried out in my own name, and has nothing to do with our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. I hope you understand."

The three of them were all startled, and the expressions on their faces became a little ugly.

The free aid in Xu Yi's private name and the free aid in the name of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce have very different meanings.

Before Xu Yi expressed his assistance without hesitation, they thought that the purpose of this trip could be easily achieved.

Now that Xu Yi suddenly said such a sentence, it made them immediately understand that their task was still very arduous.

Thinking of this, Duke Boris took a deep breath, his expression regained his composure, and after nodding to Earl Gandall and Earl Onker, he turned to Xu Yi and said seriously: "President Xu, this time we are traveling from the kingdom. I came here because there are some very important things I want to discuss with your Chamber of Commerce."

Duke Boris deliberately emphasized the words "Your Chamber of Commerce", the meaning of which is very clear.

Xu Yi smiled and nodded: "Please tell me."

Seeing that Xu Yi expressed the intention of negotiating, the three Duke Boris breathed a sigh of relief.

"President Xu, first of all, on behalf of our Kingdom of Luerxun, I would like to express my most sincere thanks for your free assistance just now."

"It's nothing, it's just something a normal person should do."

Duke Boris nodded and continued: "However, President Xu, you now have a certain understanding of the situation in the kingdom. What I want to say is that relying on your personal free assistance alone can only solve the problem. Temporary problems, but there is no way to fundamentally solve all problems.”

"Of course. My power alone is limited after all."

"But the strength of your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce far exceeds that of you alone." Duke Boris looked directly into Xu Yi's eyes and said in a deep voice.

"So your Luerson Kingdom hopes to get assistance from our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?" Xu Yi smiled. "My lord duke, I'm not afraid of your jokes. After all, we are a chamber of commerce. We need to see if we can get enough benefits in everything we do. Of course, it is possible to help your Luerson Kingdom, but it depends on whether you can come up with enough money. Impressed by our terms."

Duke Boris took a deep look at Xu Yi, took out a document from his bag, and placed it solemnly in front of Xu Yi.

"President Xu, this is an agreement signed by His Majesty the King himself. As long as you agree, we can sign it immediately."

Seeing Earl Gandall and Earl Unker looking nervously at the agreement on the table, Xu Yi knew that the conditions put forward in the agreement were probably not trivial.

Of course, how could it be possible without good enough conditions to impress the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to aid the Luerxun Kingdom regardless of the threat of the Candela Empire. (To be continued..)
