Chapter 83 How to Treat Her?
The arrival of Sevigny kept Fallen Star Manor busy for a while. ? .
Xu Yi has never been in the habit of hiring servants, so so far, only Liz and Linda, two female slaves brought back from the Principality of Standing, have been doing housework in Falling Star Manor, while Vivian has been doing housework because of most of them. When I was in school, I didn't really get involved.
Now, in order to entertain Sevigny, Liz and Linda had to give all their energy and try their best to provide the best hospitality. Naturally, they were extremely busy.
Seeing that the two female slaves kept their hands and feet, and even Xu Yilai had to take over part of the work of taking care of Steele, Sevigny couldn't help shaking his head and said to Steele: "Xu Yi doesn't like to treat people as slaves. You know what I'm looking at, but it's alright to hire a few more servants, right? Now that you're pregnant, why don't you hire a few more people to serve you? He's not so stingy, right?"
Steele was three months pregnant, and her belly began to have a small bulge. Hearing that, he touched his belly and replied with a smile, "That's what I mean, because I don't actually like too many people in my family, and I think it's too noisy. Liz and Linda have been here for a long time, and Xu Yi and I both treat them as family. If I find a few more unfamiliar people, I will not be used to it." "Thank you, princess. Your Highness's kindness, but forget it, I think it's fine now."
Seeing Steele's firm attitude, Sevigny no longer insisted, and instead asked Steele's current physical condition and other questions.
Seeing that the two were chatting happily, and gradually brought the topic to a more sexual aspect, Xu Yi did not accompany him, and turned to help Liz and Linda.
When dinner was about to be ready, Vivienne returned from Baron Rictor's School of Magic, and Teresa came back with her.
See Vivian. Xu Yi suddenly remembered a question. Last month, Baron Riktor Magic Academy was graduating from the new class of students, and many of this group of students accepted the scholarship fund provided by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce when they were still in the academy. Therefore, according to the agreement, many of the students entered the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce after graduation.
In addition to leaving some students who are not very talented in magic and have limited space for skills, and those students who urgently need to start working and earn money to enter various factories to complete the work of magic circle layout, most of the other students were shoved into his head. Went to Xinfei College for further study. Xu Yi's question is how these students feel about this arrangement.
Because Xu Yi is the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it is impossible for him to get a real answer from the students. Vivian is a student of Baron Riktor's School of Magic. If you have more private contact with other students, you should get better results. real answer.
"They are all satisfied." Hearing Xu Yi's question, Vivian replied with a look of course. "I have asked many people. They all said that they have learned a lot of novel knowledge in Xinfei Academy and are very happy."
"That's good." Xu Yi felt relieved and turned to look at Teresa. "Theresa, what about you, how is it like working at the Magic Academy?"
Compared to when Xu Yi just rescued her, Teresa's situation is much better now. Although he remained silent most of the time, at least when Xu Yi asked her a question, he would still show a smile.
"It feels good." Teresa nodded. "My colleagues in the institute are very nice to me. I am also very happy to work. It is very interesting to study magic machinery, and I like it very much."
"Really? You're happy." Xu Yi hesitated for a while, but gave up the idea of asking Teresa about the things hidden in her heart.
She is reluctant to take the initiative to reveal these things, and it is not a good thing to force her to ask her after all.
Dinner was ready, Sevigny saw Teresa for the first time at the dinner table and asked a few more questions out of curiosity. However, Teresa was very silent in front of unfamiliar people. No matter what Sevigny asked, she would either Nodding or shaking his head, even if he agreed, he just grudgingly hummed. Sevigny naturally finds it boring. He didn't ask any more questions, and turned his head to continue to care about Steele's situation.
It was only when I left after dinner. Sevigny specifically called Xu Yi aside.
"Xu Yi, what's going on with this Teresa?"
"What's going on?" Xu Yi was startled. "Didn't you ask just now? I saw her fainting on the road in the middle of the night, so I rescued her."
"I'm not asking that." Sevigny shook his head. "What I want to ask is, how do you treat her?"
"What else can be the attitude... She is now homeless. Since I rescued her, I will help her to the end. Now I arrange her to work in our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and usually rest in the Falling Star Manor. Don't It's nothing."
"You really didn't think about anything?" Sevigny frowned slightly and looked at Xu Yi. "She's beautiful."
"It's beautiful, what's wrong?" Xu Yi asked in confusion.
Sevigny stared at the expression on Xu Yi's face for a while, suddenly burst out laughing, waved his hand and said, "Okay, I worry too much. Our President Xu's head should be full of those So full of icy magical machinery, how can you think of so many weird things. Am I right?"
Xu Yi was even more puzzled: "I said, Her Royal Highness, what do you want to say?"
"It's nothing, spend the evening with Steele. She is in the early stages of her pregnancy, and her mood is very unstable. You should pay more attention to her."
"Of course." Xu Yi nodded. "Just to accompany her more, I specially moved back to the Falling Star Manor from the Falling Rain Valley. In addition to the better conditions at the Falling Star Manor, it is more convenient to accompany her because I have been dealing with things in Bangta City during this time. "
"It's good if you can pay attention to these." Sevigny nodded approvingly, and then waved to Xu Yi: "Okay, go back to accompany Steele, I'll go back first. Don't go to the City Lord's Mansion tomorrow morning. Now, let's meet directly at Koror Village."
Xu Yi laughed: "Then I would like to thank the City Lord for your understanding."
Sevigny smiled and turned to the carriage.
Seeing the carriage disappearing into the night, the expression on Xu Yi's face was a little strange.
Sevigny's visit today is purely personal. Although it reflects her good personal relationship with Xu Yi, if other people know about it, they will definitely disagree.
Although President Salak and others didn't say it on the surface, there were various signs that they had long been critical of this in their hearts.
If Sevigny acts too close to himself, I'm afraid it will have some influence.
But after thinking about it, Xu Yi laughed at himself again.
Why should he worry about these issues? Anyway, Sevigny and his special concerns are well known to everyone. This is a fact that everyone agrees with. It is better to think about how to accompany Stie to spend time thinking about such issues. What about Er.
Thinking of this, Xu Yi remembered that Sevigny reminded himself of this problem many times today, and he solemnly warned himself before leaving, and Xu Yi couldn't help but feel a strange emotion again.
Why does Sevigny pay so much attention to Teresa? Didn't he think he would have any special thoughts about Teresa...
After thinking for a while, Xu Yi shook his head, turned around and returned to the Falling Star Manor, and went straight to the bedroom.
As usual, he spent about an hour with Steele, and when Steele was supported by Liz and Linda to take a bath before going to bed, Xu Yi rushed to the study and started to do some work.
The construction of the new industrial area discussed with Sevigny today is actually the reconstruction and expansion of the former Sandyton industrial area around the Sanditon Manor.
In the past, because of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, many small chambers of commerce that produced magic machinery and processed parts and components built factories around the Sangqidun Manor, naturally forming a small Sangqidun industrial area.
However, this kind of industrial area without special planning can not help but look a bit messy, and in the long run, it will cause many problems.
The most obvious point is that road traffic and other supporting facilities are inconvenient to be laid.
Because of Earl Stark, these small chambers of commerce have now moved out of the Sangqiton Industrial Zone, but this place has been vacated again.
Now that Sevigny took over as the lord of Bangta City, he wanted to re-develop the industrial area outside Bangta City, so he re-planned around Sangkiton Manor.
According to the first step of the plan, we plan to demolish all the original buildings here first, lay the corresponding roads, water supply pipes, street lamps and other supporting facilities, and then divide the planned areas so that the various chambers of commerce will be here again. Build factories.
But now there is an important problem, that is, because of Earl Stark, many new small businessmen in Bangta City have lost confidence in Bangta City.
Because for these small chambers of commerce, it is impossible for them to have the same anti-strike ability as a large chamber of commerce like the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. A little change is very likely to hurt their muscles and even cause them to go out of business.
Last time, because of Earl Stark, most of these small business guilds moved out of Bangta City, which has already caused these small business guilds to suffer a lot.
Now, although Sevigny has taken over as the lord of Bangta City and has shown that he supports business, especially the development of the magic industry, most small chambers of commerce still take a wait-and-see attitude and dare not take risks again.
In the final analysis, no one can guarantee the attitude of the new city lord after Sevigny ceases to be the lord of Bonta City three years later.
When Sevigny and Xu Yi discussed, the focus was on how to restore the confidence of these small business associations. )
