Chapter 165 Why Did the Headquarters Send Someone?

"It turned out to be the son of President Allen, no wonder he looks familiar." The great magician Ferguson nodded to Anke Allen with a smile. "I wanted to visit President Alan after meeting President Xu, but I didn't expect to see his son first. How is President Alan?"

Anke? Allen quickly bowed and returned a salute: "Thank you, Your Excellency, the great magician, for your concern. My father is in good spirits recently, and his magic power has also increased. All the affairs of the union are also going very smoothly, so I, as a son, feel at ease. .”

"Oh? President Allen's magical strength has improved? I wonder if he has achieved a breakthrough in level?" The great magician Ferguson asked with interest.

"I don't know about this. My father just said that because he has been studying magic machinery for the past two years, he has gained some experience in magic research. He also mentioned that his strength has increased, but he didn't tell you in detail how. I."

"It's related to magic machinery?" The great magician Ferguson turned his head to look at Xu Yi who was sitting diagonally opposite, and said with emotion: "President Xu, I originally thought that the magic machinery of your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was only very effective in improving the lives of ordinary people. It’s helpful, and it’s surprising that it can help our mages improve their strength.”

Xu Yi laughed loudly: "You're flattering. President Allen's improvement in strength is also the result of his own dedicated research. Magical machinery and the like are at most just a little more inspiration for him."

"No, for a magician who has reached our level, it is extremely rare to be able to inspire a little bit more in magic research. I have always been surprised that Camilla Magister has not made any major breakthroughs for decades, but here In the past few years, he has made breakthroughs one after another, and even became a respected magister in one fell swoop. Thinking about it now, I'm afraid it has something to do with helping your chamber of commerce research magic machines."

"I think so. It's just that Magister Camilla has accumulated a lot of knowledge, and it just happened to produce results in the past few years."

Xu Yi's response was not purely out of modesty. The more important reason was that he still didn't understand the significance of the sudden arrival of the great magician Ferguson.

Xu Yi was also very happy when he received the news that the Marquis of Southgate was coming to inspect the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce again, because it meant that the Marquis of Southgate had obviously made up his mind to come and really discuss some cooperation matters with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce ,

This also means that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has made a good start in the Maro Empire. It has laid a good foundation for the promotion and development of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the Maro Empire in the future.

Moreover, Marquis Southgate's attitude towards the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and Magic Machinery is very positive, which is completely opposite to the attitude of the Candela Empire.

If we cooperate with Marquis Southgate, the magic machinery will be able to be successfully promoted in the Maro Empire.

As long as magic machines can be fully promoted in one of the two great empires of Sainz Continent, Xu Yi can take a big step towards his ideal of popularizing magic machines on the entire continent.

Moreover, if magic machines can be popularized in the Maro Empire, the Candela Empire, one of the two major empires, will obviously be touched, and it is very likely to significantly improve the current extremely difficult development environment of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the Candela Empire.

However, after Marquis Southgate sent someone to send the news, the Magician Union of the Kingdom of Lampari also sent someone to send news, saying that the headquarters of the Mainland Magician Union will also send a member of the union management council from Sky City. Christopher Ferguson, one of the three congressmen, came to meet with Xu Yi.

The news did not specify what the great magician Ferguson was here for, but it only stated that he would negotiate with Xu Yi on behalf of the headquarters of the Magicians Union, without revealing anything else.

This seems a little strange.

Ordinarily, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce still has Camilla Magister, who can be regarded as the highest-level Magister in the entire continent. The Magician's Union specially sent a great magician here, but only to see Xu Yi. Rather than coming for Magister Camilla, it is really puzzling.

What is even more strange is that it is pointed out that the great magician Ferguson will come with the Marquis Southgate.

Xu Yi is very puzzled about how the two of them are connected, so it is only natural to be cautious when the purpose is not clear.

"Speaking of which, President Xu, how many magicians are working for your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?" Great magician Ferguson suddenly changed the subject.

Xu Yi hesitated for a moment, but answered truthfully: "So far, including myself, the total number is 2,736."

"Two thousand seven hundred and thirty-six?" The great magician Ferguson showed a look of surprise on his face, obviously very surprised by this number. "President Xu, I think... Except for the armies of various countries on the mainland, there is probably no other organization in the entire continent that has so many magicians like your chamber of commerce?"

Xu Yi raised his eyebrows slightly, a trace of vigilance rose in his heart.

The meaning hidden in the words of the great magician Ferguson... Could it be a warning?

The organization with the most magicians outside the armies of various countries on the mainland?

This title is not a good thing for Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, because it is too easy for Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to be extra vigilant.

"You are too much." Xu Yi laughed. "Although there are a lot of magicians in our chamber of commerce, most of them are only low-level magicians around the third or fourth level, which is completely incomparable with the armies of those countries. Besides, they only work in our chamber of commerce. It's just that, he won't work for the army like a magician in the army."

"Really?" The great magician Ferguson smiled, pondered for a moment, and continued: "President Xu, in fact, within our trade union headquarters, the evaluation of your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has always been very high."

"Oh? That's really exciting. But can you tell me why?" Xu Yi and the others sitting around the dinner table all showed interest.

The Continental Magician's Union is a unified organization of all magicians on the entire Sainz continent. It has great power on the continent, and even has more say in power than the two empires in some cases.

Although the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can now be regarded as the top chamber of commerce in several nearby countries. But it is still not top-notch among the chambers of commerce in the entire continent. Why is it so important to the headquarters of the Magician's Union?

Only Marquis Southgate smiled. It seems that he knows what the great magician Ferguson will say next.

"The reason is very simple. It's because of the number of 2,736 you mentioned just now, and also because of the low-level magicians you mentioned, most of whom are around the third or fourth level." Ferguson Great Magic The teacher laughed.

"Please speak clearly."

The great magician Ferguson smiled slightly: "I think President Allen must have mentioned this to you, but since I have brought it up to you now, let me take this opportunity to express the attitude of our union headquarters. "

Xu Yi quickly sat up a little bit, nodded, and put on a posture of listening attentively.

The great magician Ferguson pondered for a moment. He seemed to be thinking about how to speak, and after a while, he said, "President Xu, do you know what the original purpose of the Mainland Magician's Union was?"

Xu Yi quickly recalled the "General Outline of the Mainland Magician's Guild" that he had scanned before, but found that he had long forgotten the specific content.

But of course this didn’t bother him, and some of the various organizational programs on the earth flashed in his mind, and he replied: “I think...it should be to unite the magicians on the mainland, so that all magicians have a A common organization for the benefit and support of all?”

"In general, that's right." The great magician Ferguson nodded with a smile. "But these things, to be more specific. Or more realistically, is to help all magicians survive better. Do you understand what I mean?"

Xu Yi nodded: "I think I understand what you mean. For a great magician or magister like you, there is no need to worry about survival, but for the vast majority of low-level magicians, they are relatively There are not many advantages for ordinary people, and it is actually not easy to survive better."

"Yes. And ordinary people can learn other craft skills without any psychological burden, so as to improve their lives, but since magicians know that they have an extremely rare magical talent, almost no one is willing to give up this skill. talent."

Everyone in the room, not only Xu Yi, Akali, and Anke Allen, who are also magicians, nodded involuntarily in agreement with what Magician Ferguson said, and even Southgate, who is not a magician, The Marquis and Princess Caroline couldn't help but nodded in agreement.

A magician is special to everyone on the Sainz continent. When they know that they have magical talent and the possibility of becoming a magician, no one will give up, but will do their best to achieve it. this dream.

Only Seymour pouted quietly, dismissing this passage.

He was born in a noble family since he was a child, and there are many magicians among the guards at home, and these magician guards usually respect him when they face him, without the slightest arrogance of a so-called magician.

This made him never feel that magicians are so great. If he really wanted to say, only magicians like great magicians and magisters would be regarded by him.

But thinking of this, Seymour suddenly remembered that Xu Yi was not only the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but also a powerful magician himself.

This fact made him feel a little discouraged.

No matter how dissatisfied he is with Xu Yi, in every respect, he is probably not as good as Xu Yi.

"Any magician will never give up studying magic unless it is absolutely necessary. But for the vast majority of low-level magicians, it is possible that it will be difficult to improve their research magic for a lifetime, and this will cost a lot of money. Time, energy, and...money."

When the great magician Ferguson said this, he stopped and sighed deeply.

Xu Yi and Akali also looked a little heavy.

Leaving aside Xu Yi, who came from time travel, Akali is a typical low-level magician who was born and raised on the Sains Continent and came from a poor background.

She knows better than anyone how difficult it is for a low-level magician like her to walk all the way.

If she hadn't met Xu Yi, she would have been forced to stay at the level of a low-level magician for the rest of her life like most low-level magicians due to limited conditions. With all the attention, it is difficult to be willing to be an ordinary person again and learn a skill to be self-reliant.

Thinking of this, Akali took a deep look at Xu Yi, in addition to being grateful, there was also a trace of bitterness in his eyes.

It would be great if I could meet this guy earlier... (to be continued...)
