Vol 8 Chapter 23: Need strength

The illusion faded, and Xu’s figure gradually disappeared in front of Raymond.
Raymond stood in the same place, bowed his head and thought quietly.
After a while, he was awakened by the footsteps that had already come to him.
As soon as I looked up, I saw the familiar face of my mother.
"Mother, why don't you talk to President Xu personally? Do you really do something that makes him angry?" Raymond couldn't help but ask questions.
"Maybe it is..." Servini's gaze swept past the illusion and sighed softly. "But this thing is very important for me for the entire Lampari Kingdom. It can be said that it must be done."
"What the is it?" Raymond frowned.
Sevigny looked at Raymond deeply.
"Raymond, just now President Xu asked if you are not prepared to contact government affairs, then I am asking you now, are you prepared to give everything to the Kingdom of Lampari?"
Raymond immediately lifted his chest and said: "Of course! I can offer everything to the kingdom at any time!"
"Good." Servini nodded. "Then I will ask you again, what do you need most to make the Kingdom of Lampari really strong?"
"This..." Raymond grabbed.
This problem is too much, so that he did not know how to answer it for a while.
After thinking for a while, he replied with some hesitation: "I think it should be... unite and work hard. As long as everyone in the kingdom unites and everyone works hard together, they can fully enhance their national strength, then the kingdom will naturally Become stronger."
"I am not asking you to answer questions in the social and political classroom, but to ask you more specific things." Servini shook his head.
"More specific things?" Raymond thought bitterly and thoughtfully.
After a moment, he suddenly looked up, jerked his head up and looked at Sevigny, confidently replied: "I know! Power! Mother, you often teach me. Whether it is an individual or a country Well, you must have enough power to be really strong."
"Yes." Servini showed a smile. "A country needs more power than an ordinary person. If there is not enough power, waiting for the fate of a country will only perish."
Raymond is puzzled.
"Mother is an adult, but what is the power you said? With the current situation on the mainland of Sainz, as long as there is a new flying business association, there will be no country that will perish? The new Feishang will not allow it.


If the new flyer is no longer there?
Servini asked. "Or, is the power of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce not enough to suppress other countries on the mainland?"
Raymond is silent.
This possibility, in fact, has already been considered when he began to study continental politics.
However, over the years, the New Flyers Association has been in full control of the situation on this continent, so that all the countries on the mainland dare not easily violate the meaning of the new Flying Chamber of Commerce, so that people always ignore this point intentionally or unintentionally. .
"The reason why the new Feishang Chamber of Commerce can have its present status, even the two empires can't dare to violate it, because it has the power far beyond everything. These forces are embodied in those military magical machinery." Road. "If one day the military mechanics of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce is not enough to suppress other countries, then the situation on the mainland will change instantly."
Raymond thought about it. Suddenly, I was shocked and asked Suvini: "Mother, isn’t the thing that Xu Shushu just mentioned is that you are studying military magic machinery in private?"
Sevigny was silent for a few seconds, and he nodded gently at a very slow pace.

Yes, the kingdom is indeed doing research related to military magic machinery. It’s no surprise that this research has been going on for years. And not only is our Lampari Kingdom, I’m sure, including the two empires, this All the capable countries on the mainland. All are in private research."
"But...but the "Continent Peace Convention" clearly prohibits all countries from privately studying military magical machinery." Raymond eagerly said. "No wonder Xu Uncle will be angry, you have been watching him doing these things!"
Severini laughed: "Do you think he doesn't know these things?"
Raymond glanced: "He knows? Why is he still angry?"
Sevigny took another look at the location where the illusion was just now, and seemed to be able to see Xu in general there.
"Maybe as he said, he touched his bottom line..."
Raymond looked wondering.
He is still young after all. Even if he was deliberately cultivated by Servini from an early age, it is difficult to understand the "tacit understanding" of these adults.
"Well, you don't have to care about these things. Raymond, you are going to be an adult, and you will really participate in the government of the kingdom. You just said to President Xu that you are ready, let me See if you are really ready. Okay?"
Raymond nodded sullenly, and there was a hint of hotness in his eyes.
For the high throne, he has long been eager for it.
###
After ending a short conversation with Raymond, Xu also sat down for a while and left the private estate.
Ten minutes later, he appeared at the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce Magic Research Institute and entered the Magic Communications Research Department.
As soon as I walked into the department hall, I heard a noisy voice coming from inside.
Looking around, I saw a group of young people wearing new, white uniforms huddled together and chatting with each other.
Xu Yiyi walked in and immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone groaned, and there was a deafening cheer, and they all came up.
"Hui Huichang!"
"God, it’s Xu President!"
"Mr. Xu, I am your idol... Oh no, no, you are my idol! It’s so happy to see you!"
"Mr. Xu, why are you here? Is it..."
......
Xu also has been accustomed to this kind of scene, keeping a smile and casually coping with it, his eyes swept over, and Akali, who was hiding behind the crowd, grabbed it.
"What is this doing?" Xu also asked Akali.
"I am doing a simple training for the new assistants." Akali shrugged and replied with a smile. "At the very least, I want to tell them what we are going to do, lest they be sold by us and don't know."
"Just kidding." Xu also glanced at him, his eyes swept over the excited people in front of him, watching them look like youthful and energetic, they felt that they were also infected, just a little because of Sevigny. The gloom is withdrawn.
"They are the assistants you selected this time?" Xu also roughly counted the points and frowned slightly. "Only there are so few people, is it enough?"
"There is no way, between rushes, where to recruit so many people. Now the talents in this area are very popular, even if we are new to the Chamber of Commerce, it is impossible to get everyone in hand. And my requirements are relatively high, can There is not much satisfaction. I am very satisfied with being able to recruit these people.
Akali was helpless.
"Well... it’s right." Xu also nodded. "Then you have already decided on your trip? Which day to go?"
Akali glanced at him: "What? I only came back a few days, and you, the president, will drive me away?"
Xu can only turn a blind eye: "If you are willing to stay here, not running around, I am more willing than anyone. But are you willing?"
Akali immediately waved his hand: "Don't, I don't want to stay here all the time to look at you and then blame myself, secretly hurt, too boring. I have been used to running around outside these years, you let me come back honestly I still don't get used to it."
"That is also true."
Looking at the two people in front of their own pile of people without any scruples of interaction, this group of Akali new recruits are all like the discovery of the New World, full of curiosity and excitement.
A young girl suddenly asked in a loud voice: "Hey, Xu Huichang, Master Akali, you... Are you like a rumor, actually a couple?"
Akali and Xu also looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
Akali smiled and grabbed Xu Yi’s arm and put on an intimate posture.
"Yeah, what?"
Everyone was even more excited. Several young boys even whistled directly, and the scene was extremely warm.
"Well, don't make trouble." Xu also shook his head helplessly, but he did not break away from Akali, but only to everyone: "You are here first, I have something to explain to Akali."
"Oh"
All the people sent out a response with a special meaning, and the expression was full of sorrow.
Xu also ignored them directly and signaled that Akali walked into an office with himself.
After closing the door and making sure that there were no more people in the office, Xu also smiled and smiled, and his expression became serious.
"Akali, can you make an accurate estimation time for this project?"
Akali looked at Xu Yi with some confusion.
"I haven't said it before? I haven't been on the ground for a while, I can't accurately estimate the progress of the project, so it is impossible to give you an accurate estimate. And the environment there should be very clear, there is an accident. There are too many situations, and it is more difficult to estimate the progress of the project at any time."
After all, Akali frowned and asked: "You suddenly asked this question... Is there something wrong?"
"I don't know if it will become a problem, but I must remind you. According to the latest news I received, several countries including the two empires have plans to enter the endless sea, so it is expected that There are a lot of fleets in other countries that are also deep in the sea. They also look at the seas we have chosen, so you have to be careful there." (~^~)
