Chapter 44 Buying a Ship

With the passage of time, the full withdrawal of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has become more and more serious.

At the beginning, only some shops, factories and mines directly related to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce were closed. Since they were taken over by the Mana Magic Kingdom, which had been prepared in advance, the impact was not too great.

However, due to the withdrawal of other races and the withdrawal of a large number of chambers of commerce from other countries, a large number of various factories that had sprung up in the Mana Magic Kingdom in the past few years closed down and stopped production.

Although the Mana Magic Kingdom has made a lot of preparations for this, while letting various chambers of commerce within the kingdom take over, while recruiting chambers of commerce from other countries to invest in, it has lost a large amount of weight related to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. The investment of the super chamber of commerce has severely damaged the magic industry system within the Magic Kingdom of Mana, and affected related industries to varying degrees.

Among them, the most influential and most obvious one is the household magic machinery industry.

With the withdrawal of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and a large number of other related chambers of commerce, it is impossible to produce even the most basic magic fan in the Magic Kingdom of Mana. Either this part is missing or that accessory is missing.

The Mana Magic Kingdom has thought about relying on its own strength to improve this system, but these things seem simple, but they require a long-term accumulation of technology, especially the accumulation of relevant talents, so no matter how hard the Mana Magic Kingdom works, it will not It is also difficult to fill the gaps.

Moreover, affected by the complete withdrawal of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the various chambers of commerce related to the magic industry in the Magic Kingdom of Mana, even importing spare parts from other countries has become a problem.

At the same time, since the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce labeled the Mana Magic Kingdom as "dishonest", the products of the various chambers of commerce in the Mana Magic Kingdom have become unacceptable in the eyes of most people in the entire continent. Trusted product.

This view is not limited to magic machinery, but is printed on all products produced by the Magic Kingdom of Mana.

Even a few traditional products that have a long history of nearly a thousand years in the Magic Kingdom of Mana and have a great reputation in the entire continent have been affected by this, and sales have dropped sharply.

Thus. The various chambers of commerce in the Mana Magic Kingdom are not easy to produce, and even more difficult to sell. Naturally, they are unsustainable, and they have announced their closure.

together with. This also caused a large number of workers employed by these rising chambers of commerce to lose their jobs in large numbers.

If it were decades ago, or even just ten years ago, the term "unemployment" would have been used by the vast majority of people in the Magic Kingdom of Mana. It's a very new term.

Because most people don't have serious jobs at all, they are all farmers who rely on the land to survive, so how can they be unemployed.

However, in the past ten years, with the comprehensive promotion of the magic industry by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the Sains Continent, a large number of chambers of commerce related to the magic industry in the Magic Kingdom of Mana have sprung up, making these people who originally only knew how to work in the fields , Also entered various factories and mines one after another, got jobs with income far exceeding their previous ones, and thus lived a better life than before.

Now, however, they are unemployed.

There is a saying on earth. It's called going from frugality to extravagance is easy, but from extravagance to frugality is difficult.

Through these jobs, people in the Magic Kingdom of Mana have already gotten used to the beautiful new life now, but now they lost their income because of unemployment, and suddenly lost the basis for maintaining a good life.

Of course they are not willing to return to the fields to work hard, and even if they are willing, it is because most of the farmland in the kingdom is taken over by the professional agricultural chambers of commerce under the names of the nobles, and they have no part in it at all.

So these people lost almost all their sources of income at once.

So turmoil broke out as a matter of course.

At first. It was only three provinces where large-scale unrest broke out.

However, as the Mana Magic Kingdom failed to come up with effective solutions, the scope of these disturbances became wider and wider, and soon spread to more than half of the territory.

It can be said how far the previous wave of opposition to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce spread. The scope of the turmoil is now as wide as it is, and it is even wider.

The interior of the Mana Magic Kingdom was originally stable and thriving, but in the blink of an eye it had become extremely turbulent.

When the outside newspapers reported these events, many clearly pointed out that the Magic Kingdom of Mana had become what it is now. The reason lies in the complete withdrawal of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

Some tabloids even simply stated that the reason why such a large-scale turmoil broke out so quickly in the Magic Kingdom of Mana was that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was instigated behind the scenes.

For this accusation, Xinfei Chamber of Commerce officials did not give any response.

But in private...

"It deserves it!" President Cruise snorted with disdain. "Who told these guys not to cooperate with you honestly, but to try to use those small thoughts, and now they have tasted the bad results, and they are completely self-inflicted. Are you right, Xu Yi?"

Xu Yi shook his head, a little amused in his heart.

In fact, he chose to let the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce fully withdraw from the Mana Magic Kingdom because of other deeper considerations, but the Mana Magic Kingdom just hit the gun.

It’s not wrong to say that the Mana Magic Kingdom deserves it. After all, if they hadn’t deliberately delayed, made small moves in private, and even created a wave of opposition to negotiate terms with Xinfeishang, Xu Yi would not have made this directly. Decide.

However, Chairman Cruise put on such a look of gloating and righteous indignation, which is really too much.

After scolding the Magic Kingdom of Mana, President Cruise coughed lightly, and asked instead: "Speaking of... Xu Yi, do you really plan to ignore the Magic Kingdom of Mana completely? If you are willing to let go now Mouth, Mana Magic Kingdom will definitely agree to any conditions."

Xu Yi glanced at him: "Our Chamber of Commerce has publicly announced to everyone that it will completely withdraw from the Magic Kingdom of Mana. How can we go back on our word?"

President Cruise twitched the corners of his mouth, with a disapproving expression on his face.

The so-called public announcements in the mall are no different from farting, just like the words from the mouths of those political figures.

As long as there are enough interests, these things can be overthrown at any time, and no one will feel surprised.

If the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce re-enters the Mana Magic Kingdom in the name of civil rescue, it will not be considered a violation of the previous announcement, and the Mana Magic Kingdom will naturally make a statement, and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can be invited back. Others can't blame Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for this at all.

It is impossible for Xu Yi not to think of this solution, so why is he still sticking to his previous decision?

"Don't look at me, since I've decided to quit. That's quitting." Xu Yi saw the thoughts in President Cruise's mind and explained something deliberately. "For your Amley Chamber of Commerce, this is a good opportunity to take the opportunity to fully penetrate the Magic Kingdom of Mana. Don't miss it, Cruise."

Chairman Cruise smiled awkwardly: "I didn't think about it that way. Don't forget, our Amley Chamber of Commerce is the first to withdraw from the Mana Magic Kingdom after your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce."

Xu Yi smiled. I thought that although the Amrit Chamber of Commerce followed Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to announce its withdrawal, it did not indicate that it would withdraw permanently, nor did it indicate that it would withdraw completely. It was just for show.

It would be strange if President Chris wasn't tempted and had the idea of ​​stepping into the current Magic Kingdom of Mana.

"Okay, the matter of the Magic Kingdom of Mana has nothing to do with me, so let's not waste time discussing it. Cruise, are you ready?" Xu Yi asked.

Hearing Xu Yi's question about something serious, Chairman Cruise immediately looked serious. He nodded and said, "It's ready and ready to go at any time."

After a pause, he suddenly moved a little closer, and asked with a smile: "Well...Xu Yi, our people are ready, but I'm afraid the boats are not enough. It's just relying on the fleet of your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for transportation. It's a bit too much trouble for you. How about..."

"Why don't you just sell you a few ships?" Xu Yi said with a smile.

"Ha... haha... If it's possible, of course it's great." President Cruise laughed twice, but he didn't deny it at all.

Xu Yi smiled and shook his head, took out a document from the table next to him and threw it in front of Chairman Cruise.

"Look at it. If you like it, sign it."

Chairman Cruise took it over and saw that it was actually a contract for the sale of a large magic ship.

Take a closer look at the number of large magic ships involved in this contract. There are as many as ten ships!

President Cruise looked at Xu Yi in surprise and joy: "This...you...are you going to sell us ten ships at once?"

Xu Yi stretched out his hand, turned directly to the last page of the contract, and clicked on the place where the final payment was made.

"Sign it if you want, stop talking nonsense."

Chairman Cruise glanced at it, without any hesitation at all, and signed his name at the end.

He and Xu Yi have cooperated for nearly thirty years. There is no need to doubt that Xu Yi will set some traps in the contract.

"I can only give you ten ships for the time being, so don't worry about more." Xu Yi brought over two other contracts of the same type and asked President Cruise to sign them. "If you want, you may be able to afford it after our new shipyard is completed."

Cruise smiled all over his face and nodded again and again: "Ten ships are almost enough for the time being. In the future... Of course, the more the better, as long as you are willing to sell them, I will take them all."

"Good idea." Xu Yi snorted. "Even if it's these ten ships, I gave you a little each from the Maro Empire, the Candela Empire, and the Lampari Kingdom. Do you think there are so many?"

The smile on Chairman Cruise's face was wider, and the smile was full of hospitality.

"Xu Yi, I have always kept in mind your care for our Amley Chamber of Commerce. After going to Moyun Continent this time, I will definitely let my subordinates go all out, and I will definitely not hold you back."

"Actually, the situation on the Moyun Continent is much simpler than that of the Bience Continent, and things are easy to do, so there is nothing to hold you back." Xu Yi pondered for a moment, and continued: "When I get there, I may decide according to the actual situation. Make some changes, and you're mentally prepared."

Chairman Cruise nodded in response, and was about to speak when he was suddenly taken aback and looked at Xu Yi with wide eyes.

"Are you going too?" (~^~)
