Chapter 59 Transportation Problems

Sitting in the first carriage was Lifer, the deputy head of Lanke of the Saranque Chamber of Commerce. He had seen Xu Yi at several business association meetings, and when he saw him suddenly appear, he quickly stopped the carriage.

"President Xu, why do you have so much time for a walk in the city today?" River is in his early forties, with a slightly chubby face, and his smile looks a bit like President Morgan of the Falcao Chamber of Commerce, but he is more like Morgan than Morgan. The president seems to be much more cordial.

"No, this is just after discussing something with the Lord of the City, and I just came out for a walk." Xu Yi then replied, looking at the carriageways behind: "It seems that you have achieved a good harvest this time, those magic fans. Are they all sold out?"

River smiled and said: "Thanks to your suggestion, President Xu, all the magic fans in our inventory have been sold out. To tell you the truth, people in other parts of the kingdom still have great demand for magic fans."

Xu Yi nodded lightly, thinking that this was an obvious thing.

The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was just established last year. Once the magic fan was sold, it caused a boom in Bangta City and several surrounding cities, which is enough to prove the impact of this novel magic machine on the people on the Sainz Continent.

It doesn't make sense that the people in Bonta City and the surrounding cities need it, and the people in the rest of the Lampari Kingdom don't need it.

But what River said was right. The reason why the Saranque Chamber of Commerce would sell the magic fans produced under its own name to other places in the kingdom was indeed from Xu Yi's suggestion.

At the joint meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, Xu Yi proved the fact to the presidents of other chambers of commerce that the other chambers of commerce are far behind the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the production of magic machinery. I want to compete head-on with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for the market. That is almost impossible.

So Xu Yi proposed. Because the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce does not have sufficient sales channels for the time being, other chambers of commerce might as well rely on their mature sales channels to sell the produced magic fans to other places in the kingdom, so they will not worry about sales.

Although other chambers of commerce did not make a clear statement on Xu Yi's proposal at the time, Xu Yi later learned that many chambers of commerce did indeed do so, and according to the news, the effect was very good.

There are even several chambers of commerce after seeing the strong demand for magic fans elsewhere in the kingdom. He even gave up the idea of ​​withdrawing from the magic machinery market, and turned to vigorously producing magic fans again.

Two of the chambers of commerce even ordered two more production lines from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and shipped them to two other cities far away from Bangta City to build a new magic fan factory. It is said that the sales volume is now very considerable.

Thinking of this, Xu Yi asked River: "Since the sales are good, then when you come back this time, are you going to suggest to President Lanke to increase investment and continue to vigorously produce magic fans?"

River looked left and right, and approached Xu Yi. Whispered: "President Xu, does your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce really not plan to sell your Xinfei brand magic fans to other places this year?"

"Of course." Xu Yi nodded affirmatively. "Didn't I already express my attitude at the last joint meeting? The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce does not yet have the strength to deploy all products in all parts of the kingdom. So at least this year, our Xinfei brand magic fans will only be available in It is sold in Bangta City and the three surrounding cities. Of course, starting from next year, we will also try to open up new sales channels, because the people who should buy in these cities around Bangta City have basically bought it. The market is completely saturated."

River stared at Xu Yi for a while, and when he saw his sincere expression, he nodded lightly: "Okay, I understand. President Xu, I think our Saranque Chamber of Commerce and your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce should have opportunities to cooperate. ."

Seeing that Lifu wanted to leave, Xu Yi quickly stopped him and asked him, "I want to ask you one more question, what is the furthest place you will go this time?"

River glanced at Xu Yi in surprise: "I didn't go very far, the farthest is Sefland City."

"Sefland City?" Xu Yi thought for a while. "That's only about 400 kilometers away from Bangta City."

"Four hundred kilometers is already very far." River shook his head with emotion. "Because we were afraid of damage to the goods, it took us a full week to go there. If it weren't for the fast selling of the magic fans, it would be impossible to come back today."

Xu Yi's eyes fell on the wheel of the carriage, seeing that the iron wrapping on the wooden wheel was completely worn away, which shows that their trip was indeed quite hard.

Seeing Xu Yi looking at the wheel, Vice President River suddenly sighed with emotion: "President Xu, when your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce insisted on building a road from Bangta City to Luoyu Valley, I thought you must be crazy. Now, there is too much money and there is no place to spend it. But now after going out for such a trip, I found that the words you said were called... called... what are you thinking about?"

"If you want to get rich, build roads first." Xu Yi said.

"Yes, if you want to get rich, build roads first. This sentence is too true! If all the roads in our Lampari Kingdom are roads, not only do we not have to worry about damaging the goods due to road bumps, but the carriage can still run. Faster. If you have been running on the road, 400 kilometers may take less than three days to arrive. This way, you can save a week of time, enough for me to run one more trip.”

Xu Yi smiled and said: "Of course. Transportation is the fundamental issue to promote commercial development, so it is correct to say that if you want to get rich, build roads first. The direction you are coming back should pass through Saltan City, and you should see the Philippines. Is the road connecting Sartan City and Bonta City under construction by Elson Motors?"

River nodded: "Well, I see. I thought that the highway was also built by your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. I just found out after entering the city that it was built at the expense of Philson's car dealership."

"Yes, actually building roads is the most helpful for us businessmen. After you go back to see President Lanke in a while, remind him for me. If he doesn't make up his mind, he might not have a chance soon. already."

River looked at Xu Yi inexplicably, but didn't ask any more questions, and nodded in response.

Xu Yi stepped aside. Seeing that Xu also had nothing else to say, River. Then he greeted Xu Yi. Drive the carriage away again.

Watching the carriage disappear at another street corner, Xu Yi then retracted his gaze that had been staring at the wheel of the carriage, and thought for a while, but instead of going home, he walked in the opposite direction.

Ten minutes later, Xu Yi appeared at the headquarters of Philson's car dealership in the city.

As expected, at this time, President Pompely of Philson's car dealership was spending a rare leisure time in his exclusive room in the headquarters as usual.

I heard that Xu Yi was visiting. He hurriedly invited people in.

"President Xu, I'm really surprised that you will come here." President Pomperi laughed loudly, and while welcoming Xu Yi to sit down on a special soft chair woven with fragrant grass, he poured him down. A cup of all-green-green flower dew that sells for as much as thirty-eight gold coins per liter.

Xu Yi glanced at the room, and finally looked at the cup of Floating Firefly Flower Dew in his hand, and couldn't help laughing: "I have long heard that President Pompelius, your life is extremely luxurious, but seeing it with your own eyes today is the only way to do it. I found that whether it is other people's descriptions and my imagination. It's still a long way off."

President Pomperi laughed and waved his hand: "President Xu. It's fine if those ordinary people say that. You are the chairman of the most profitable chamber of commerce in our Bangta City. If you still say that, It's slapping me in the face. If you want to, there is no pressure to live a life ten times more luxurious than this."

Xu Yi smiled slightly and did not intend to discuss with him the choice of luxury or not. After taking a sip of the fragrant and refreshing Firefly Flower Dew, he asked President Pomberg about the construction of the highway by Philson's caravan. .

"Generally speaking, it's going well. Although there are some small problems in the middle, it's nothing." Speaking of the two people, or the common topic between the two chambers of commerce, President Pomberg's tone was extremely relaxed. "According to President Cruise's estimate, the road will take more than three months to complete, just in time for the cold winter. What about yours?"

"Almost." Xu Yi replied. "This time, the roads built by our two chambers of commerce are much wider than the rainy road, and it should take a little longer. Besides, President Cruise has been complaining to me that the manpower is not enough, so that their chambers of commerce have been constantly There is no way to work at full capacity.”

President Pomperi sighed helplessly: "Don't say he complained, I complain too. Now there are many people from other cities coming to our Bangta City, people come and go, we Philson's car dealership wants to receive The number of guests has more than tripled than before. I am also worried about the shortage of staff."

"You have received more guests, which proves that your business is good. Isn't this something you should be happy about?" Xu Yi smiled.

"Happy is happy, but worry is really worry. You said... Shall we go and suggest to the Lord of the City, let him apply to His Majesty the King and move some people from other cities?"

Xu Yi shook his head to express his veto: "Even if it is His Majesty the King, it is not easy to give orders to force ordinary kingdom people to relocate. Besides, there are many people in the kingdom who belong to noble territories, and His Majesty the King does not have this power. If there is a problem, the best way is to publicize it. As long as everyone in the kingdom knows that we need a lot of manpower in Bangta City, and the salary given is not low, then I don’t think it will be forced by others. There are a lot of people running towards our Bangta City."

President Pomperi thought for a while and couldn't help nodding his head: "Well, this should be better. Everyone wants to make more money. Knowing how much money we have in Bangta City, there will definitely be a lot of people coming. Yes." Immediately, his face became bitter. "But with more people coming, we will have more guests. Where can I find so many useful people in such a short period of time?"

"This is your own problem." Xu Yi shrugged, paused, and then said, "But President Pompey, have you ever thought about improving this problem from yourself?"

President Pomperi glanced at Xu Yi and asked in confusion, "How can I improve myself?"

"For example... it takes two days for your carriage to travel from Bangta City to Anvilmar City, but if you can shorten this time to one day, what do you think?" (To be continued. .)
