Chapter 16 Here, You Are the Queen
Just after noon, a pale golden magic car with a unique shape drove into Sanchiton Manor.
When the car door opened, Xu Yi got off from the passenger seat on the right, while Seweini got off from the driver's seat on the left.
After closing the car door, Sevini glanced at Xu Yi's face, and asked with some concern: "Hey, Xu Yi, how do you feel after taking the car I drove? I'm a novice who only got a driver's license half a month ago. , do you feel worried?"
Xu Yi laughed: "How could it be? Although you are a novice, you drive very steadily. I have nothing to worry about. Besides, after riding the magic locomotive driven by the great magician Camilla, I feel that no matter if you ride any It is impossible for me to have any panic reaction to a magic locomotive driven by a human being."
Sevini couldn't help but chuckle.
About how bad Camilla's driving skills are, she not only heard Xu Yi mention it several times, but also heard Steele mention it several times, and she often received reports about Camilla's driving a magic locomotive and hit her. When I got here, I bumped into various reports there, and I already had a deep impression.
Now I heard Xu Yi actually say that she, a novice with *top* points* small* theory, has much better skills than the great magician Camilla, Seweney is also a little strange when she is funny.
Ordinarily, the great magician Camilla is a character who can become a great magician. No matter how you look at it, she should have an IQ far beyond ordinary people. Why is she so bad at driving a magic locomotive?
"I have also asked this question, and I have taught him how to drive the magic motorcycle several times. The final conclusion is... This has nothing to do with IQ, it is completely related to the personality of the individual. Think about it. One hasn't even got a driver's license yet. The guy who dared to increase the power to the maximum when driving the magic locomotive for the first time. He didn’t repent, so it’s strange that he can drive well.”
Seeing Xu Yi's helpless expression, Sevini couldn't help laughing again.
The great magician Camilla is both a respected Lord great magician and Steele's grandfather. No matter what, Xu Yi has nothing to do with him. He must have suffered a lot in this matter.
"That's not the case. He is a great magician in everything he says. There won't be any accidents. At most, it will just crash a few magic motorcycles. I can afford it." Xu Yi shrugged and looked at the Glancing at the magic car between the two, he asked again, "What about you? I haven't asked you yet, how does it feel to drive this magic car?"
"It's great!" Sevini nodded with a smile, and praised unceremoniously: "I must say that riding in this magic car is much more comfortable than riding in a carriage. You can hardly feel any bumps when running on the road, and It’s fast and easy to operate. Since I got it, I almost want to drive it around.”
"Really? If you like it so much, then I think His Majesty the King will like it too." Xu Yi smiled. "Very good. In a few days, you can spare time to go to Rainfall Valley, or tell me what His Majesty the King has special preferences, so that I can let them build according to His Majesty's preferences."
In fact, Seweney's two magic cars were specially customized by Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for Seweney.
In addition to the unique light gold color, this magic car has also been deliberately modified according to Sevigny's body shape. It looks smaller than other magic cars produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and the lines are softer. It looks round and cute. A lot, more suitable for a young girl to drive.
In doing so, Xu Yi was not only flattering Sevini, but also an attempt to open up the female market for magic cars.
You must know that for those truly wealthy nobles and big businessmen, it is obviously not unacceptable to prepare a magic car for the women in their families.
"Okay, I'll give you a copy of the blueprint in a few days." Sevini nodded and agreed, and after hesitating for a while, he said, "Xu Yi, it's okay that you plan to give your father one, but you really want to give it to me." Aren't you going to give it to my two older brothers?"
"I'm not that ignorant of etiquette yet." Xu Yi shook his head. "Send me to send, but the question is... are they willing to accept it?"
Seweney fell silent.
If it is said that her second brother, His Highness Prince Miham, might accept the gift from Xu Yi, then her elder brother, His Highness Prince Eric, has shown a clear attitude towards the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce before. In front of him, he would not accept it.
"Okay, don't think about these disappointing things. Let's go, Sevini, I'm here to accompany you to inspect the fertilizer factory here today. Let's focus on the business first. The things here are much more important than a mere gift or two. Already." Seeing the complicated look on Sevini's face, Xu Yi said.
"Well, let's go." Seweney nodded, and walked towards Sanchiton Manor with Xu Yi.
It is already mid-March, and it is the annual spring plowing time again.
Although Banta City is currently driven by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the commerce is extremely developed, and the main fiscal revenue comes from commercial taxes, but no matter what time it is, agriculture is fundamental, and this has never changed.
Moreover, when Seweini took over the position of the city lord, she also expressed the hope that the agriculture and commerce of Banta City would develop together as her governing policy.
Seeing that the harvest season of spring plowing is approaching, Seweini, the city lord, naturally wants to show that she attaches great importance to agriculture. Today's inspection of the fertilizer plant is a clear statement of her position.
A male elf greeted him from a distance.
Xu Yi raised his hand to greet him.
"Hey, Arador."
The male elf, who was also called Arador by Xu, kept his footsteps in a hurry, but he still maintained the unique elegance of the elves. He came to the two of them, showed Seweini a solemn courtesy, and said with a smile: "My lord, welcome Come again."
Sevini sized him up curiously, and stretched out his hand: "Hello, are you the new director here, Arador?"
"Yes. I only accepted the management of this fertilizer processing plant two months ago. It is a great honor to meet you for the first time, Your Royal Highness." Arador glanced at Seweini's hand. hesitated for a moment. Then he stretched out his hand and shook her lightly.
The handshake ceremony does not actually exist in the etiquette of the elves. It's not even very popular among humans on the continent of Sainz, but when Aralado left the Moon Shadow tribe, he was told by Elder Lisanya to go to a human place and try to abide by the rules of humans, so he still chose obedience.
"Okay, Director Arado, since you are in charge of managing this fertilizer processing plant now, can you please show us around?" Seweini said again.
"Okay. This is my honor. Lord City Master, President Xu, this way please."
The two walked into the factory workshop under the guidance of Arado, and just took a casual look, and found that the scale of this fertilizer processing plant was obviously much larger than when Seweney came to inspect it last year.
Not only are there nearly double the number of elf workers working there, but there are also two more fertilizer production lines.
Everywhere they looked, there were busy elf workers everywhere, and they didn't even have time to cast curious glances at Seweini and Xu Yi.
Seeing this situation, Sevini showed a satisfied smile, and asked Arador: "Director Arador, how is your current production? Is it enough to meet the needs of our Banta City?"
Arado smiled slightly: "My lord, what kind of output are you asking about?"
Sevini was a little stunned: "What is the output of which aspect?"
"Uh... let me explain this." Xu Yi took up the conversation. "My lord, this chemical fertilizer processing factory is now not only producing a single type of chemical fertilizer, but in addition to producing chemical fertilizers for basic food crops such as wheat and rice, it also produces some fertilizers for fruit trees, flowers and the like. specialty fertilizers."
"Oh? Is that so?" Sevini glanced at Arador and frowned slightly. "It's not enough for you to supply the basic food crops of wheat and rice, so why bother to produce other kinds of fertilizers?"
"These other types of fertilizers are also our attempt. My lord, this is the suggestion that President Xu gave us." Arador kicked the ball to Xu Yi.
Seeing Sevini's questioning gaze, Xu Yi shrugged: "If we only produce grain fertilizers, the product is too single, which is not good for the future development of the fertilizer factory, so I hope they can develop more new varieties of fertilizers. So far, the effect is good. After using these chemical fertilizers in the orchard of Koror Village, not only the fruit trees bear a lot more fruit, but also the quality is much better, which makes the canned fruit of the fruit canning factory taste better than before More, sales have increased a lot.”
Sevini gave Xu Yi a blank look: "After all, the canned fruit factory belongs to your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and you are still fighting for the interests of your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but you have left the overall interests of our Bangta City behind. ?”
Xu Yi immediately cried out: "How is that possible! My lord, for your instructions last year, I specifically ordered the magic machine tool workshop to configure two brand new production lines for the fertilizer factory as soon as possible at all costs. You can see it now."
"Then what's the effect?" Seweini looked at Xu Yi with some amusement. "If the food and fertilizer produced are not enough for our Bangta City, then I really want to blame you."
Xu Yi turned to look at Arrador: "This needs to be answered by Director Arrador himself."
Arado smiled at Sevini: "My lord, I don't think you need to worry about this problem. Since we received the two brand new production lines provided by President Xu, the total output of our fertilizer plant has now exceeded 300,000 tons. And because of President Xu’s request, most of them are designated as fertilizers for common crops, with an average monthly output of more than 250,000 tons.”
"An average of 250,000 tons per month?" Seweney nodded. "It should be good to say so. So now do you think it can meet the needs of our Bangta City?"
"Absolutely no problem." Arador nodded with unusual certainty. "In order to ensure the demand of Bangta City, we keep a certain amount of inventory every month. The current total inventory has exceeded one million tons. In addition to the production before spring plowing this month and next month, the total amount can even exceed One and a half million tons. In addition to supplying Bangta City, I even think it is possible to free up a part of supply to other cities.”
"Don't be in a hurry to provide it to other cities. When I go back, I will ask my subordinates to calculate the specific amount of fertilizer needed by Bangta City." Sevini turned to Xu Yi again, showing a meaningful smile. "President Xu, I remember... you promised me that I have the right to decide how to distribute these fertilizers, right?"
Xu Yi smiled slightly: "Yes, my lord, you are the queen here."
Hearing the title "Queen", Seweini was startled, and then glared at Xu Yi.
However, seeing that Xu Yi's face didn't look like he was joking, Sevini sighed softly in his heart, but didn't say much. (To be continued..)
