Vol 6 Chapter 21: bad impression

Although the attitude of the Candela empire made Xu feel strange, but let go of Autov., the other merchants in Pompeii that Russell brought this time are very serious and want to discuss cooperation with the new Feishang. ≧
Many of these merchants have visited the city of Nissi in the Kingdom of Rulson and witnessed the current prosperity of Nissi and Nissi, and they are very yearning for this scene.
Pompeii, one of the canals of the Candela Empire, is itself a coastal city with a military port dedicated to the Candela Imperial Navy and a civilian port belonging to Pompeii. Like the Port of Nissi, it follows the name of the city, Pompeii.
The first step for these businessmen to cooperate with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is to introduce various types of civil magic machinery from the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. For this reason, they and Xu also negotiated and decided to cooperate with the new Feishang Chamber to develop the Pompeii Port. .
They were extremely active in this matter, and even before they arrived here, they had jointly persuaded the city of Pompeii to obtain approval from the investment and development of the expansion of Pompeii.
Of course, Pompeii does not need to invest half a piece of copper coin in this case. It depends entirely on the independent investment of the merchants. The city of Pompeii has no reason to oppose it.
Xu Yi is of course very welcome to their proposal to develop Pompeii, but they are not so keen on their proposal to join them in the joint investment of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
Even if Pompeii develops well, it is under the rule of Candela. These Chambers from Pompeii have no problem. The New Chamber of Commerce, which is not part of the Candela Empire, has great doubts.
In case of the Candela Empire, it was deliberately embarrassing. Take the current strength of the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce. But there is no way.
However, after some consideration and discussion. Xu also agreed to invest 1 million gold coins in the development plan of Pompeii by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and only symbolically owns 10% of the shares of Pompeii.
Compared with unreliable ownership, Xu is more concerned about the reliable use rights.
Once the Pompeii Port is completed, it will become an important window for the new Flyer Chamber of Commerce and the southern part of the Candela Empire.
After the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce, there will be countless transport fleets flocking to Pompeii, so it is crucial to obtain the priority of this port.
Although the actual right to use is also not so reliable because of the powerful presence of the Candela Empire, in contrast, the right to use is much more likely to be protected than the ownership of the Candela Empire.
Through this discussion with several Chambers of Commerce in Pompeii. Xu also discovered a fact that made him very emotional.
The Candela empire is one of the two great empires on this continent. Although these chambers of commerce are only ordinary chambers of commerce in an ordinary city near the Candela empire, the strength is not to be underestimated.
In their plan to develop Pompeii, they initially estimated that the investment would be as much as seven million gold coins.
Compared with the total investment of the Port of Nissi Port in the Kingdom of Rulson, the total investment is only 3 million gold coins, but it is more than twice as high.
Moreover, the development of Nissi Harbour is a development project that the Kingdom of Rulson attaches great importance to. The King of Truz personally paid attention to it and invested in the enormous budget of the Kingdom of Rulson before it was successfully developed.
It can be seen that compared with the super-powerful country of the Candela Empire, a small country like the Kingdom of Rulson is still far from the overall strength.
This is why Xu has always attached great importance to the development of the internal markets of the Candela Empire and the Marlow Empire.
But let Xu also be a little depressed. It is also one of the two great empires on the mainland of Sainz. The progress of the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce in the Marlow Empire is very smooth. But in the Candela empire, it has repeatedly hit the wall.
After working with Ambassador Hakanin for so long, it was indeed through the ambassador of Hakanin that various types of home magic machinery were popular in the city of Wimbledon, the capital of the Candela, and were greatly welcomed.
However, this has been close to two years. Xu also hopes that the demand for the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce to enter the Candela Empire to obtain a sales channel through the relationship of Ambassador Hakanin has not been met.
The reason for this is difficult to fully understand, but from the results, I am afraid that Ambassador Hakanin itself has some obstacles in it, and the Candela empire seems to be not fluent about it.
Then there was the Amrit Chamber of Commerce building roads in the southwestern province of the Candela Empire.
This road has been built for more than a year now, but it has not been built yet.
This is just a road with a total length of less than 500 kilometers. With the strength of the Amrit Chamber of Commerce, if everything goes well, it should be built within half a year, but it has been dragged to the present and it is still very slow. .
President Cruz therefore complained to Xu Yi many times, the most complaining of which was the local officials of the southwest province of the Candela Empire.
The Amrit Chamber of Commerce has shared bribes for these guys with a total of more than 100,000 gold coins. The construction of this road has been hampered by various obstacles and embarrassment, and the president of Cruise has even wanted to be tempted and not repaired.
The benefits of the highway are obvious. The Candela Empire is not willing to repair the road. It is only their own.
In addition, Billier’s launch of the new flying magic locomotive in Wimbledon was also unsatisfactory, which made Xu also have a very bad impression on the Candela empire.
However, Xu’s impression of the Candela empire is no longer useful, and this does not affect his determination to continue to explore the Candela Empire market.
So a week after Russell and others left, Billier suddenly returned to the Principality of Stading, and revealed to Xu also the purpose of his return, and still let Xu Yi spirit be alive.
"Frank Prince changed his mind?" Xu was surprised and excited to look at Billier. "What did the royal family say?"
Billier squinted and summed up the meaning revealed by Frank Frank and his repeated contacts during the previous period. He laughed: "Frank is still unable to withstand the temptation of the car, but he is a good man after all. His Royal Highness, can't run like the other little aristocrats to participate in the private little game organized by me. So he wants to make this event regular and let more people in the empire accept it, so that he can justifiably I got involved."

So he wants to cooperate with our Chamber of Commerce to organize a regular racing event?
Xu asked with amazement. "What is the name of His Royal Highness?"
"Well... Specifically, His Royal Highness thinks that your new competitor will have a good experience in hosting racing events, and it is also a chamber of commerce for the production of racing cars, so he hopes to cooperate with you to clear the relationship in the Candela empire. Introduce your already mature event to the Candela empire. He is only responsible for the nominal problem, and all other operations are done by your new Flying Chamber of Commerce."

In short, everything is done by ourselves. Your Royal Highness is only responsible for providing some convenience?

"Yes."
"Well... this is actually the model I have been expecting, but my Royal Highness did not agree, but I did not expect to come forward now. Billier, why?" Xu also asked.
Billy smashed his hand and looked at Xu, and he looked hesitant.
Xu Yi is in the heart of Daqi.
This question is not something that is difficult to answer. Billier is hesitating.
"This... In fact... In addition to the introduction of the new flying racing event, Frank hopes that the other thing I told you is more important..."
Looking at Billy's hesitant expression, Xu also frowned, thinking that this thing will make him very embarrassed, otherwise Billier will not have this expression.
"Okay, let's talk. No matter what conditions the Royal Highness has proposed, it is negotiable." Xu Yiyi looked indifferent.
Billier scratched his head and sneered: "Okay. Frank said that he is not only interested in participating in the car, but also very interested in the magic car itself, so he hopes... cough, can be with your new flying club Cooperation, opening a magic locomotive factory directly in the Candela empire."
Hearing the first half of Billier's first sentence, Xu also guessed what he wanted to say, so it was not too unexpected for the request made later.
After a little contemplation, Xu also asked: "How do you want to cooperate with His Royal Highness?"
"Frank said... he wants to be able to study his favorite magic car, so... he hopes that your chamber will transfer the technology of the magic locomotive to him and give him some support from the researchers to help him study faster. Magic racing..."
The more he talked about the back, the smaller the voice of Billier, the smile on his face became stubborn, and apparently he also felt that the request of Prince Frank was excessive.
However, Xu Yi’s face has not changed at all, but he has been indulged, revealing a serious consideration.
Seeing that Xu also did not answer, Billier tentatively asked: "Mr. Xu, how do you feel?"
Xu also extended his hand to Billier.

Is there a detailed plan?

Billier said: "Are you promised?"
Xu also shook his head: "Now I can't give you the exact answer. It depends on the specific plan of Frank's emperor. So, is there a plan?"
Billier shook his head slyly: "Frank only let me inform you first, and didn't give any specific plans..."
Xu also sighed: "Is this guy in Candela empire so unreliable? Well, Billier, you are here for a few days, I will draw up a detailed plan for cooperation, you bring back to Frank. The emperor has a look. If he agrees, then this cooperation is no problem."
"So if Frank is not satisfied with the proposal you made?"
Xu also narrowed his eyes and snorted softly: "If he still disagrees with my concession, what cooperation is necessary?"
Bilier swallowed a spit and had a heart to persuade him to make two sentences. However, he saw that Xu’s face was very cold, and he swallowed these words directly. (To be continued, please search for astronomical literature, the novel is better updated faster!
