Chapter 54 The Canal Project Starts Again

Xu Yi had just walked out of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion when Smira Potter, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, immediately greeted him.

"How is it?" Smilla Potter asked expectantly.

Xu Yi gave him a smile: "No problem. Although Earl Stark did not fully agree, he told me that there is no law in Lampari that prohibits the Chamber of Commerce from doing business, so any chamber of commerce can do business. Commercial activities in Bangta City will not be interfered by the City Lord’s Palace.”

"Oh? So we have finally conceded defeat for the new city lord?" Smira Potter was immediately overjoyed. "Haha, I knew that sooner or later his policy of suppressing business and revitalizing agriculture won't go on. It's okay now, you're going to suffer."

Xu Yi shook his head and motioned for Smilla Potter to follow him to the carriage waiting outside. After the carriage started, he lowered his voice and said, "Although Earl Stark should have realized his mistake, his basic attitude is And the position will never change. So we can acquiesce we can continue to do what we stopped before, but we can't be too obvious, or arrogant. If it causes Count Stark's backlash, Then my previous efforts will be in vain." "I can't say what price I paid. Strictly speaking, I just made a deal with him, but this deal is very helpful for the food development of Bangta City, which he values ​​most. That's it."

Smilla Potter glanced at Xu Yi and wanted to ask the question, but after thinking about it, she still gave up the question.

Anyway, the canal penetration project, which he cared about most, was finally restarted after being suspended for half a year under the order of Earl Stark. He was already happy enough.

"President Xu, did Lord City Lord say when we can start construction?" Smilla Potter asked again. "I hope that the sooner the better, taking advantage of the dry winter season, the canal will be much easier than usual."

"If you want, you can do it tomorrow." Xu Yi smiled. "Since Count Stark has already expressed his attitude, it proves that the City Lord's Mansion will not interfere any more. As long as you can keep a low profile as much as possible. I think there is no problem."

"That's great!" Smira Potter slapped her hands excitedly, but then froze and smiled bitterly: "President Xu. You must be kidding me, right? Tomorrow is the first day of the new year. , how can any worker be willing to work at this time." "There are new magic excavators to use? That's great!" Smitha Potter immediately laughed happily.

Looking at the passionate, energetic and fighting spirit in front of him, Smira Potter, who seemed to have energy that would never run out, thought that no one would be able to see him now and the former Xu Yi who was depressed because of his depression when he first saw him. Even guys who want to kill themselves are linked.

It is very appropriate that he is in charge of the canal penetration project.

"By the way, President Xu, when I was helping Eiffel City clean up the Rum River there some time ago, the city owner of Eiffel City asked me about the magic excavator, magic shovel and magic magic drill we used. Waiting for the question of engineering magic machinery, I recommended your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to him. I think after the New Year, Eiffel City should send someone over to discuss the purchase of these magic machinery." Smitha Potter added .

"Oh? So you also helped our chamber of commerce get some business. Haha, should I give you some rebates according to the rules?" Xu Yi joked.

Smilla Potter waved his hands again and again: "President Xu, don't make such jokes with me. I hope that these magical engineering machines produced by your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can be popularized in the entire Kingdom of Lampari. When the time comes, I will The fleet will be able to flow unimpeded throughout the entire Lampari Kingdom." He paused. He asked again: "That... President Xu, speaking of the fleet, when will the magical ship you mentioned be built?"

"I'm very sorry, but I still can't give you an exact time." Xu Yi shook his head. "But what I can tell you is that the most important technical issues in the production of the magic ship have been solved, so I can be sure that this thing will be developed in the next days. According to estimates, wait for the connection between the Sandy River and the When the canal of the Rum is really opened, then you will be able to lead such a fleet across it."

"Really? That's great!" Smira Bohr shook her fist excitedly, looked at Xu Yi with a big smile, and said, "President Xu, sometimes I really don't know whether to hate you or be grateful. Hello. If it weren't for you, my fleet would not have been reduced to the point where there is no business to do, forcing me to even have thoughts of suicide. But if it weren't for you, I would not have been rescued. It is possible to have a dream fleet.”

Xu Yi shrugged: "Whatever you want, hate me or be grateful to me, anyway, you have done what I hope you can do, and that's enough."

"Well, you're right." Smilla Potter nodded heavily. "I have to say, President Xu, your aura is much bigger than the average person. You don't have to worry about those messy things when working with you, it's much more refreshing."

"As long as you are satisfied, there are still many opportunities for us to cooperate in the future."

The two discussed the issue of the canal penetration project for a while, and the carriage carrying the two drove out of Bangta City. Smilla Potter declined Xu Yi's invitation to be a guest at the Falling Star Manor, and went straight to a carriage instead. Head toward the mouth of the lower Sandy River canal.

Looking at his appearance, it is clear that he intends to re-open the canal regardless of the approaching New Year.

Xu Yi admired his work spirit, but would not take the same approach as him.

In his opinion, it is true that he can concentrate on work at other times, but the New Year is coming. During this time period, the most important thing is to spend time with his family and enjoy the New Year.

The carriage drove into Falling Star Manor, but Steele greeted it immediately.

After seeing Xu Yi, the expression on Steele's face was a little strange.

Xu Yi wiped his face and asked in confusion, "It's nothing, right? Why are you looking at me like this?"

Steele came over, stretched out his hand and pinched Xu Yi's face, and snorted softly, "I don't mind if you want to take care of your lover, but why are you going to discuss with Evita? Do you have an idea too?"

Xu Yi was startled, and then immediately shouted apologetically: "When did I want to take care of a lover? Besides, what does this have to do with Evita? I just went to her and asked what you think."

Seeing Xu Yi's nervous look, Steele wanted to try to keep his face straight, but he couldn't help but burst out laughing, and even couldn't help covering his stomach and arched his waist with laughter.

Seeing her appearance, Xu Yi knew that she was not angry, and immediately felt relieved.

After Steele calmed down a little, Xu Yi hugged her, pulled her into his arms, stared at her and snorted softly, "I really underestimated the strong friendship between Evita and you. What. She has to tell you even this kind of thing, isn't she afraid that I will trouble her?"

"You won't." Steele snorted. "President Xu Yixu, our respectable and upright peerless man, why would he be so stingy to trouble a girl like Evita? Are you right?"

Xu Yi glared at her angrily: "What? Is this what Evita told you too?"

"Of course not. Don't you know what kind of character Evita is? She praised you fiercely in front of me for a long time, and told me to cherish you and say what a good man like you is. Good husbands are almost unique, I can't make you bored with me, I have to be very nice to you. Hey, seriously, Xu Yi, what do you think of Evita?"

"What do you mean by asking this question?" Xu Yi asked back with a frown.

"Answer my question first."

"Then what are you referring to?"

"It's about her being a girl. What do you think of her from a man's point of view?" Steele asked.

"It's...very good. I think Evita is quiet, kind, considerate and considerate of others. She's a very good girl."

"Then do you think she's pretty?" Steele asked again.

"Well... Although not as beautiful as you, it can be considered beautiful. The most important thing is that she makes people look comfortable. I think as long as a man is like her type of girl." Seeing Steele seems to Seriously, Xu Yi answered honestly.

"So you really like her too?"

Xu Yi frowned again: "Steel, what happened to you today? Why do you have to ask such a question? I think Evita is a very good girl, but it doesn't matter if you like her or not, right? ."

Steele stared at Xu Yi for a while, and rolled his big, smart eyes, but suddenly revealed a coquettish smile. He kissed Xu Yi lightly on the lips, and took his hand to the manor. I didn't intend to continue this topic.

Xu Yi was baffled by Steele's strange reaction, but thinking that people often told him that girls' minds were so difficult to understand, he smiled and shook his head, and stopped asking.
