Chapter 128 Defense Work

Sevini made a special trip to the Principality of Standing this time, nominally to meet with Xu Yi to discuss the cooperation between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Lampari Kingdom in detail, but according to her own statement, she used this excuse to come out Relax for two days.

She did achieve this goal, except that she personally negotiated with Xu Yi about the "lease" of the Zhenxi Army to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and the rest of the joint venture factory between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Lampari Kingdom This matter is all being negotiated with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce by the subordinates she brought.

Correspondingly, Xu Yi basically ignored these matters. He handed over the specific negotiation process to Kennard and other relevant persons in charge of the chamber of commerce, while he played with Seweney for two days.

According to Sevini, except for Xu Yi, there is no one else in the entire Lampari Kingdom who will be like Xu Yi and have no scruples in front of her, just treat her as an ordinary friend and let her relax. entertainment.

During these two days, Xu Yi not only took Seweney to swim in the sea and enjoyed sunbathing on the beach, but also enjoyed the excitement of drag racing in the territory with Seweney, and even boarded a small magic assault boat. Hit the wind and waves.

On the last day, Xu Yize boarded the magic airship with Seweini, allowing her to experience the feeling of flying freely in the air.

After the ride, the excited Seweini directly asked Xu Yi to provide her with a magic airship as soon as possible no matter what, for her exclusive use.

However, this magical airship cannot be placed in the financial expenditure of the Lampari Kingdom, and is completely paid for by Seweney's private finances.

You know, although Seweini is the Queen of the Lampari Kingdom. But private finances have not been well-off. Now he is willing to take out 300,000 gold coins to buy a magic airship. It can be seen how much she loves the magic airship.

Two days later, Sevini, who had finished her short trip to the Principality of Standing, returned to the Kingdom of Lampari. Because of her arrival, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, which was on high alert, could finally breathe a sigh of relief and return to its daily life. .

Entering summer, it is the peak sales period of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's various household magic machines.

In the month of June alone, according to the final statistics, Xinfei Chamber of Commerce sold a full 360,000 units of magic fans alone. Magic air conditioners also sold more than 80,000 units, and magic refrigerators were slightly less, but they also sold more than 30,000 units.

Just through these three most urgently needed household magic machines in summer, Xinfei Chamber of Commerce won an astonishing 1.57 million gold coins in June.

As for the magic machine tool department, the magic locomotive of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is very popular in the Kingdom of Luerson.

First of all, more than 4,000 small and medium-sized freight locomotives were sold, and more than 700 large freight locomotives were sold. Just relying on the freight magic locomotives, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce earned a profit of more than 600,000 gold coins.

The second is the magic car, because it has been sought after by almost all noble businessmen in the Rulson Kingdom, once it was introduced. A large number of magic cars were sold in Luerxun Kingdom.

In the month of June alone, more than 300 Magic Cars were sold in the Luerson Kingdom. It brought a profit of 50,000 gold coins to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

Although this figure is much lower than the profits created by other departments, Xu Yi believes that the market for magic cars is very broad.

When the living conditions of ordinary people in the Rulson Kingdom gradually improve, the sales of magic cars will inevitably experience explosive growth just like the cars on Earth.

Even in the kingdom of Lampari, there are already a little signs of this.

The cooperation project between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Lampari Kingdom does not include the magic locomotive, so if the magic car enters the Lampari Kingdom for sale, it is equivalent to imported goods and must pay a certain tariff, so the price is forced to be higher.

But even so, the magic car is still extremely popular in the Kingdom of Lampari.

As the place where the magic car originated, almost every aristocratic businessman in the Lampari Kingdom must own a magic car.

If you still ride in a carriage, it's a shame, and you don't have the face to go out to meet people.

What really caught Xu Yi's attention was that some civilians in the Lampari Kingdom began to demand magic cars.

These civilians are not nobles, nor are they big businessmen, but they are also very eager for magic cars.

However, these civilians did not have enough financial strength to spend close to thousands of gold coins to buy a magic car at one go, so Xu Yi began to consider paying in installments for the sale of the magic car just like on Earth.

Although there are certain risks in doing so on the continent of Sainz, considering market factors, Xu Yi feels that this approach is worthwhile.

However, even if these civilians are neglected, more than 600 magic cars were sold in the Kingdom of Lampari last month, bringing a profit of more than 100,000 gold coins to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

In terms of freight magic locomotives and large and medium-sized passenger magic locomotives, there has been an explosive growth in sales. In June, these two types of magic locomotives have sold an astonishing amount in one go in the Lampari Kingdom. More than 13,000 vehicles!

Just relying on this, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has gained a terrifying profit of nearly two million gold coins!

In addition to the profits from bicycles, tires, magic machine tools, etc., the total profit of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in June exceeded five million gold coins!

Even if all expenses are put aside, Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's net profit in this month has exceeded three million gold coins.

And this is without calculating the profit of military magic machinery.

Of course, in terms of military magic machinery, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce really didn't actually make much money.

The armistice agreement with Earl Weilun allowed Xu Yi to obtain a large area of ​​territory, but he also needed to supply Earl Weilun with the same large amount of military magic machinery.

And now Xu Yi has reached an agreement with Sevigny, Xu Yi is equivalent to renting the Zhenxi Army from Sevigny, so in order to improve the combat effectiveness of the Zhenxi Army, Xu Yi must also equip the Zhenxi Army with certain military magic mechanical.

Although Xu Yi knows very well that it is impossible for him to get back the military magic machines equipped for them from the Zhenxi Army in the future, which is equivalent to giving them away for nothing, but he is in urgent need of manpower now, and he can get the support of the Zhenxi Army, and many things can be done. Easy to solve.

And the current financial resources of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce are sufficient to support such consumption.

As soon as July passed, despite the hot weather, the Lampari Kingdom Zhenxi Army, which was equipped with a large number of military magic machines provided by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, still marched into the Black Rice Wasteland.

If the Zhenxi Army dared to do this before, it would definitely cause the Beastmen on the Black Rice Wasteland to strongly resist, thinking that this is the intention of the human kingdom to invade the Black Rice Wasteland and seize the land belonging to the Beastmen.

But this time, the orcs on the Black Rice Wasteland did not respond to this. Even when the Zhenxi army passed by the orc tribes, they were warmly welcomed by the orcs and obtained a lot of supplies from them.

Obviously, this is the role played by Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

When the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce first came to the Black Rice Wasteland to invest and build a factory, it was hostile to almost all the orcs. However, after several years of development, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and several other human chambers of commerce have been fully recognized by the orcs.

The reason is simple, Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and several other human chambers of commerce will bring them a better life.

After entering the Black Rice Wasteland unimpeded all the way, the Zhenxi Army did not immediately approach the junction of the Black Rice Wasteland and the Sak Kingdom, but cooperated with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Amley Chamber of Commerce to start building fortifications at the border.

This fortification is different from the adobe wall built on the border between the two in the past, but uses the most mature reinforced concrete structure of the Amrit Chamber of Commerce.

When helping to build a dam on the upper reaches of the Sandy River, the Amley Chamber of Commerce used this structure to build the dam with the technical support provided by Xu Yi.

Now after several years of practical experience, the Amrit Chamber of Commerce is extremely handy in this structural model.

Coupled with the continuous financial and resource support from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the construction of this fortification was extremely fast.

In just one month, more than 30 kilometers of fortifications were built.

From the outside, this fortification is a bit like the Great Wall, except that it is slightly smaller in scale, more than five meters high and about three meters wide at the top.

But compared with the Great Wall, this fortification is undoubtedly much stronger.

The fortifications made of reinforced concrete structure, not to mention that they can easily withstand the attacks of ordinary armies in this world, even if Xu Yi used the powerful ninth-level magic to blast for a long time, it was just a hole in it. .

When the fortifications across the northern part of the Black Rice Wasteland are completed, it can be said that it can completely block any possibility of the Sak Kingdom going south through the Black Rice Wasteland, so that the Black Rice Wasteland can develop without any harassment.

For the Lampari Kingdom, this is also very beneficial.

If there is nothing to worry about in the Black Rice Wasteland, the Kingdom of Lampari can devote more energy to the north of the Kingdom.

Therefore, although Sevini's "lease" of the Zhenxi Army to Xu Yi received a lot of criticism and opposition in the Lampari Kingdom, when Xu Yi proposed this cooperation model, it was fully approved.

Of course, Xu Yi was actually unwilling to do this in his heart.

In the eyes of the people in Sainz Continent, this fortification can be regarded as almost unbreakable, but in Xu Yi's view, the so-called fortification is of little significance, and it is difficult to resist a really powerful attack.

In order to build this fortification, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce estimated that the total investment would be as high as three million gold coins.

If the money is used to do other things, the return must be more.

However, in order to obtain the approval of King Lampari's party and create a stable environment for the Black Rice Wasteland, the three million gold coins had to be spent.

However, for Xu Yi and Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the Black Rice Wasteland is only one of the places that needs a stable environment, and the stability of the other place is more important.

But this place is not stable... (to be continued...)
