Chapter 41 The Old City of Wimbledon
Riley was sitting at a table facing the street on the second floor of the restaurant. Looking through the window at the bustling crowd on the street below, Riley couldn't help sighing softly. + Vertex Fiction,
He has been in Wimbledon City for a full month and a half.
According to the plan, he came to the Candela Empire this time to represent the Amrit Chamber of Commerce and the Candela Empire to discuss the establishment of a principality for the Candela Empire.
Originally, both he and Chairman Cruise thought that this matter should be easy to achieve. After all, Ambassador Hakan was here with him this time. Open up the situation, and then quickly reach an agreement with the Candela Empire.
However, the facts were completely beyond his expectations.
Although Ambassador Hakain is the brother-in-law of His Majesty the Emperor of the Candela Empire, he does not actually have any real power in the Candela Empire, and his status is far lower than Riley imagined.
In the process of contacting the aristocratic officials in Wimbledon through Ambassador Hakain these days, Riley can see that although these aristocratic officials will sell the face of Ambassador Hakain to meet Riley, but once When it comes to specific matters, they all use a very tactful tone, but they refuse with a very firm attitude.
Obviously, these aristocratic officials with real power didn't take Ambassador Hakanin seriously at all in their hearts, and naturally they didn't take his solemn and hyped-up highway seriously.
There were even a few noble officials who looked at Riley with suspicion, as if they regarded him as a liar.
At the beginning, Ambassador Hakan was very active in taking Riley to meet the aristocratic officials of Wimbledon. He even took him to several noble gatherings. It made him know many noble officials.
But because the attitude of these noble officials is surprisingly unified. Ambassador Hakain may also feel that it is not interesting, and gradually he is no longer willing to care about this matter, and his enthusiasm quickly fades.
In the past half a month, Ambassador Hakain seldom met with Riley, and every time Riley mentioned the road, he was all perfunctory by him with a haha.
At this point, Riley naturally knew that Chairman Cruise had obviously made a wrong bet.
This Hakain ambassador is completely unreliable.
In many cases, Riley regretted that if the Amrit Chamber of Commerce entered the Candela Empire through formal channels. Discuss cooperation with the Candela Empire, I am afraid the effect will be much better than now.
After all, the convenience brought by the highway is very significant. As long as the Candela Empire can pay attention to it, Riley has enough confidence to persuade the Candela Empire to accept this new thing.
However, both Riley and the Amley Chamber of Commerce have left a bad impression among many noble officials in Wimbledon. It is extremely difficult to cooperate successfully.
"Are we too anxious?" Riley asked himself, frowning.
Although the Amli Chamber of Commerce can be regarded as a first-class chamber of commerce in the Lampali Kingdom, and because it has two unique technologies of road engineering and reinforced concrete high-rise buildings, it is also famous in the surrounding countries, but because of Lanpali The Kingdom of Parry and several surrounding countries are extremely inconspicuous compared to the behemoth of the Candela Empire. As a result, the noble officials in Wimbledon have never heard of the Amley Chamber of Commerce. Naturally, the Amley Chamber of Commerce and Riley were ignored.
So Riley couldn't help but think, in fact, the Amly Chamber of Commerce is now anxious to enter the huge country of the Candela Empire, one of the two great empires on the Sainz continent. Is it a little too hasty.
In fact, based on the current development of the Amrit Chamber of Commerce, it is best to continue to open up the market in some small countries and continue to strengthen the foundation. When the time is right, consider entering a super empire like the Candela Empire or the Maro Empire.
Chairman Cruise originally planned this way, but because the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce suddenly had the idea of entering the Candela Empire, Chairman Cruise, who is Xu Yi's loyal ally, immediately moved his mind.
But the reality is very cruel. The Candela Empire simply dismisses the Amrit Chamber of Commerce.
Every time he thinks of this, Riley can't help feeling a bit of resentment towards Xu Yi in his heart.
If Xu Yi hadn't suddenly wanted to enter the Candela Empire so anxiously, President Cruise would not have been so impulsive.
But Riley was also weird.
He and Xu Yi have known each other for more than five years, and he knows that Xu Yi is definitely not an impulsive person. He has a detailed plan for everything he does, and he has a strong foresight. No matter what he does, even if the initial effect is mediocre, Afterwards, it will always show a very powerful effect, which will amaze everyone.
This time, he decided to let the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce enter the Candela Empire, and it could never be a whim.
But when he thought of this, Riley thought about it again, but found another fact that made people laugh and cry.
On behalf of the Amley Chamber of Commerce, it is true that he has run into walls everywhere in Wimbledon, but this has nothing to do with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
Before Ambassador Hakan came back this time, he made a special trip to Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to bring back a large number of various household magic machines, including more than 20 large freight magic locomotives.
And when Ambassador Hakan and Riley arrived in Wimbledon, the goods were sold out in less than ten days.
According to the figures disclosed to Riley proudly by Ambassador Hakan in private, he has obtained a huge profit of more than 200,000 gold coins from these household magic machines!
You must know that Ambassador Hakain stayed in Luerxun Kingdom for a whole year, and the total amount of gold coins he obtained from various sources would not exceed 30,000 gold coins. Obtained such a terrible profit.
It's no wonder that every time Ambassador Hakain mentioned Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and Xu Yi, he would smile like a flower blooming on his face.
However, the city of Wimbledon is known as the largest city in Sainz mainland. According to statistics, the resident population in the city exceeds an astonishing one and a half million, plus the floating population at least exceeds two million.
Although Ambassador Hakain brought back a large number of household magical machines loaded with more than 20 large freight magic locomotives this time, after they were completely sold, it was as if a stone was thrown into a wide pond. Didn't cause any noticeable changes at all.
Riley looked through the window. Found this Wimbledon town to be ridiculously big though. It is much more lively than any city he has been to, but if you look at it seriously, there is actually not much difference between him and many cities on the Sainz continent.
Row upon row of small buildings made of huge stones, narrow roads criss-cross, people on the side of the road are fanning their cattail fans, trying to get rid of the last trace of heat in late summer...
Everything that fell into Riley's eyes gave him an old feeling in his heart.
at the very beginning. He didn't understand why he had such a strange feeling when he saw this lively scene.
After watching for a long time, he suddenly understood.
The reason why he feels that Wimbledon has an old feeling is entirely because he keeps comparing the city of Wimbledon with the city of Bonta, which he is most familiar with, in his mind.
In terms of scale alone, Bangta City is obviously several times smaller than Wimbledon City, and because of the relocation of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and a large number of other chambers of commerce, the bustling level has also dropped significantly, and it is no longer the previous grand occasion. At any time, there will be a burst of vitality. Everywhere is full of fresh feeling.
If this feeling is specific, it is actually the wide and flat strips in the new urban area of Bangta City. Extending in all directions, the roads connecting all parts of Bangta City, as well as the street lamps on both sides of the roads, as well as the magic bus locomotives galloping back and forth on the roads, all kinds of new factories outside the new urban area, high-rise buildings tens of meters high, every room A new type of household magic machine will be revealed in the world...
Even people riding bicycles or busy or leisurely people on the road, everything reveals the difference between the old-fashioned cities of Bonta City and the continent of Sainz.
Yes, with the efforts of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the subsequent city lords, the current Bangta City has already become a brand new city, and it is even obviously different from other cities on this continent in all places.
And in these different places, there is a message everywhere, that is, advanced.
Or according to what Xu Yi once said, Bangta City has become a modern city, and it has long since broken away from the level of the old-fashioned cities on the Sainz continent.
Even compared to Wimbledon, which is known as the largest city on Sainz's continent, Riley still has a sense of superiority in his heart.
So what? Can it be more advanced than Bangta City?
On the entire continent, the only thing that can be compared with Bangta City in this respect is the Black Rice City on the Black Rice Wasteland, and the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the Principality of Standing.
Thinking of this, Riley actually felt that his mood suddenly became lighter.
These guys in the Candela Empire don't know what to buy, so let them continue to immerse themselves in this backward mentality.
The Candela Empire does not welcome the Amrit Chamber of Commerce, but there are many other countries that welcome the Amrit Chamber of Commerce very much.
Sooner or later, this huge but bloated empire will pay the price for its dullness.
Riley put down the wine glass that he had been holding for a long time, and the anxiety and worry in his heart gradually disappeared.
Turning his head and taking a deep look at the city of Wimbledon outside the window, Riley made a decision in his heart.
Say goodbye to Ambassador Hakanin tomorrow.
When I go back and explain the actual situation of the Candela Empire to Chairman Cruise, I believe the Chairman will definitely make the same judgment.
Just as Riley was about to greet the waiter to check out, there was a muffled sound on the stairs leading to the second floor, and a moment later a thin middle-aged man with a shrewd look came up.
The middle-aged man glanced around on the second floor of the restaurant, landed on Riley, and then walked straight over.
Riley was slightly taken aback, and searched in his mind to confirm that he did not know this person.
The middle-aged man walked to Riley's desk and showed him a very polite smile.
"Excuse me, are you the Vice President Riley of the Amley Chamber of Commerce from the Kingdom of Lampari?"
Riley was even more surprised.
This middle-aged man obviously came to find him after investigation.
"It's me, what can I do for you?" Riley asked cautiously.
Receiving Riley's affirmative answer, the smile on the middle-aged man's face became even brighter.
"Vice President Riley, I came to you this time to ask about the paving of roads."
Riley suddenly perked up.
It’s been a long time since I’ve been in Wimbledon, but this is the first time I’ve heard someone actively express their interest in roads.
