Chapter 55
Romon and Arroyo came to Waterland City, the capital of the south-central province of the Maro Empire this time. The task was actually simple. They were only responsible for promoting the college education model of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce here. Reach a cooperation and build some new colleges in the South Central Province.
These new academies will all imitate the model of Xinfei Academy. They are not traditional magician academies, but will teach a variety of basic knowledge to build a foundation for students.
To put it bluntly, it is somewhat similar to elementary and junior high schools on Earth.
The biggest difference is that the knowledge learned in primary and junior high schools on Earth is related to the theory of natural science and technology on Earth, while what is taught in these colleges is related to the theory of magic science.
As the research on the magic industry on the continent of Sainz gets deeper and deeper, the research on various scientific theories of magic is also getting deeper and more refined.
Now if a child wants to become a magician, he will no longer learn directly from mastering magic as before, but will learn from the most basic knowledge of mathematics, physics, chemistry, etc., and wait until he develops a general scientific concept , will really start to get in touch with magic.
The disadvantage of this is that students may have to study for many years before they can really learn to master magic.
But the advantage of doing this is that every student has the possibility to finally master magic through learning, and even if they can't master the ability to cast magic like those magicians in the past, they can also master other related skills through various learning. to find a suitable job.
Given the rapid development of the magic industry in Sainz, there is no need to worry about it being completely useless.
This kind of education model was only vigorously promoted in Xinfei Academy before. Although other countries have followed suit, the effect is naturally far inferior to Xinfei Academy.
So this time, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce offered to share this brand-new education model, which was welcomed by other countries.
The Maro Empire is one of the first batch of cooperation partners selected by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. As early as three months ago, the two parties have reached a consensus and signed a cooperation agreement.
So this time Romon and Arroyo came to Waterland City, not to seek the approval of the Governor's Office of the South Central Province. Instead, they came directly to discuss the cooperation details.
In their identities, the governor of the South Central Province did not meet with them in person, but the governor's mansion sent a representative to cooperate with the owner of Waterland City to conduct a preliminary discussion. It is determined to build a college in Waterland City for trial operation first.
Because the general strategy had already been decided, there was not much to talk about between the two parties, but a brief discussion was made on some details, and the matter was quickly finalized.
It was only at the final farewell that the representative of the Governor's Office vaguely mentioned to Romon the matter of the Kendela Empire's invasion of the Magic Kingdom of Mana. Trying to ask Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's internal attitude towards this matter.
Naturally, Romon had no way of commenting.
The representative of the Governor's Mansion didn't ask any further questions. The two sides chatted casually and then left.
On the way back to the residence, Arroyo talked about this matter with Romon.
"You said...what does the chairman think?" Arroyo frowned deeply, this question seemed to have troubled him for a long time. "Even if he didn't expect that the Kendela Empire would be so bold and start a war against the Maro Magic Kingdom as soon as he left, but the news was sent there in the fastest magic airship at the first time, and the president should have known about it long ago. , why hasn't there been any response yet?"
Romon glanced at him and pondered for a moment. Then he said in a low voice: "Before I left the headquarters, I received news that the chairman actually sent a message back last week."
"Oh? How do you say?" Arroyo's expression was shocked immediately. "Should the Chamber of Commerce come forward to warn the Candela Empire and let them stop?"
"If so, do you think the Kendela Empire will continue to attack the Magic Kingdom of Mana?" Romon asked back.
Arroyo thought for a while, and frowned again: "Then what exactly does the president want to do? Is it really like what those people said, he made a private appointment with the Kandela Empire to destroy the Magic Kingdom of Mana? "
Luo Meng immediately glared at him: "How can you say this nonsense?"
Arroyo looked around cautiously, coughed lightly, and continued to ask: "What did you say?"
Romon shook his head. His face was also full of puzzlement.
"According to the information I received, the president means...don't worry about anything."
"Whatever?" Arroyo raised her voice. "How can that be done! We are the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce!"
Romon sighed helplessly: "Keep your voice down. How could we know what the president thinks. But since he sent the order back like this, he must have deep meaning."
"Profound?" Arroyo shook her head. The doubt on his face showed that he didn't believe it. "The chairman has always emphasized that he hopes that the Sainz continent will always maintain peace and stability, so that it will be more conducive to the development of the magic industry. Now that the Candela Empire and the Mana Magic Kingdom are at war, this is one of the top countries on the continent. How can a country be considered peaceful and stable?"
"Do you mean that the chairman is also to blame for this?" Luo Meng gave him a blank look.
"This..." Arroyo didn't dare to blame Xu Yi explicitly, so she could only keep silent.
Romon sighed. Shaking his head slightly.
In fact, he felt that what Arroyo said made some sense.
It seems that it is really difficult to completely escape the suspicion of the several decisions that the chairman made in a row before, as well as the timing of his choice to go to Moyun Continent.
But this returned to the terrible result he had thought of before.
If the president did this on purpose, then the peace and stability that has lasted for eleven years in Sainz Continent may be gone.
In this way, this continent... is it going to be chaotic?
###
"To put it bluntly, no matter how chaotic the Sainz continent is, what does it have to do with us?" Ankato knocked on the table in front of him, his expression was very passionate, but his words were chilling. "We are just a chamber of commerce. Other countries fight whoever they like. As long as it doesn't affect our business, it's none of our business."
This sentence fell into the ears of other high-level executives of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the conference room, and immediately caused a frown.
"Ankato, can't you say that?" Lovely Thorpe, the president of the Xinfei Mining Chamber of Commerce, said in a strong nasal voice: "Other countries have launched wars, which will definitely affect the business of our chamber of commerce. Just like this time, although The war is mainly concentrated in the Magic Kingdom of Mana, but it still affects more than a dozen of our mines that have some relationship with the Magic Kingdom of Mana. If the war continues for a long time, our mine production will drop next month."
"That's right. Ankato, don't tell me that your home magic machinery has not been affected. Anyway, our magic locomotive department has been affected. A batch of orders from the Candela Empire were canceled without any reason." Explain to us."
"That's because your magic locomotive department isn't strong enough, otherwise why didn't the Kandela Empire explain it to you?" Ankato sneered. "As for our household magic machinery department...there is also an influence, but it doesn't get in the way."
"That's now. If a few more countries fight in the future, do you think it will get in the way?"
Ankato rolled his eyes, scanned the crowd, and said with a smile: "You seem to have confirmed that there are still many countries that will be restless?"
"Isn't this obvious!" Lithorpe, who has the usual fiery temper of a dwarf, slapped the table vigorously and shouted loudly: "All these guys are developing military magic machines in private, and now everyone The country has saved a lot. Before, there was a president who was suppressing here, so no one dared to take the initiative to cause trouble. Now that the president has finally left the Sainz continent, they will definitely not miss this opportunity. You see, Didn’t the Candela Empire just pop up.”
The rest of the people looked at each other and nodded in unison.
It is no secret in the eyes of the senior executives of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce that other countries on the mainland have privately developed military magic machines.
Xu Yi had never expressed his opinion on this before, and everyone ignored it.
Now that Xu Yi is not here, the Candela Empire immediately jumped out, and there is no guarantee that another country will not be able to hold back.
"So what are you going to do? Send the chamber of commerce guards to drive back the army of the Kendela Empire and make them cease fighting?" Ankato asked back.
Everyone fell silent.
If it was before, Xinfei Chamber of Commerce might really do this.
But now Xu Yi's attitude is ambiguous, and before the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce announced its complete withdrawal from the Mana Magic Kingdom, it will be difficult to be convincing, and it will be even more difficult for the Candela Empire to accept it.
Besides, Xu Yi is not here, and none of the other high-level chambers of commerce has the qualifications to mobilize a large number of chamber escorts without authorization.
Moreover, in the message Xu Yi sent back last week, there was only one sentence in reply to this matter - it was a matter between the two countries, and it had nothing to do with the chamber of commerce, which can be regarded as expressing his attitude.
Ankato paused, and then asked: "Don't you understand the thoughts of the elders? Just relying on the power of our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it has been a long time to suppress other countries on the mainland. It is impossible to keep suppressing like this." .Sooner or later, they will move their minds and become chaotic, which we can't control. Besides, this is not what our chamber of commerce should do normally, is it?"
Everyone understands this truth, but it is difficult for people who have become accustomed to Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's superiority over all countries on the Sains Continent in the past ten years to truly accept it.
"But... why did you choose this time?"
"Maybe it's been too long, and you all forgot." Ankato smiled, as if he had already understood it. "The "Continental Peace Treaty", when it was first signed, had a limited number of years..." (~^~)
