Chapter 25 Negotiation

"Master President, what should we do now?" In the magic airship going away, Evita stared at Xu Yi and asked eagerly. "If Akali remains in their hands, I...I'm very worried."

"What? Don't you think I was afraid of the Duchess of Windsor, so I had to retreat?" Xu Yi asked in pretended surprise.

"Master President, it's already this time, please stop joking with me, okay?" Evita gave Xu Yi a strange look. "I don't know who you are? You definitely won't leave Akali alone."

Xu Yi smiled slightly: "Okay, no kidding. That's right, it's impossible to leave Akali and the others alone. If word spreads, I'm not going to be the president anymore. Well... I'm not I'm afraid of the Duchess of Windsor, but judging from Earl Dole's performance just now, I'm afraid he now thinks he has someone to back him up, so he won't accept my threat. If he is too urgent to force him, maybe he will treat Aka instead Li and the others are disadvantaged."

"Then what should we do?" Evita frowned deeply. "This Earl Dole is not willing to accept, how can we save people from him?"

"Don't worry. The reason why Earl Dole arrested Akali and the others was of course to negotiate terms with me. Otherwise, it would be meaningless for him to do so. Before the terms were negotiated, he would not take Akali How about Li and the others, so we still have enough time to think about how to deal with it."

Xu Yi pondered for a while, took a piece of paper, wrote a paragraph on it with a brush, and folded it, the magic power in his body surged, and a moment later, a magic sealing circle was carved at the opening of the folded paper.

There are two blessings of this magic seal circle. Except for magicians who know how to break the seal. If other people open it without authorization. The magic seal will automatically activate to destroy this piece of paper.

Xu Yi handed the sealed piece of paper to Evita.

"Take this to see Magister Camilla and tell him the situation here. At the same time, you go back and discuss with Kennard and ask him to arrange some follow-up work. You just need to tell him, this time, I need to give some guys A profound warning, and forget about the rest. See what I mean?"

Evita took the letter and put it in her pocket, nodded and said: "Understood. But Mr. President, won't you go back?"

"I won't go back. Earl Dole is not a patient guy. So there is not much time left for us. I have to hurry up and prepare for the countermeasures."

After saying this, Xu Yi smiled again, patted Evita on the shoulder lightly, and said softly: "Evita, there is really no need to worry. A helper was invited, but this helper may be almost equivalent to an invincible shield to him, but in my eyes, it is nothing at all. Do you believe me?"

Evita bit her lip and nodded vigorously.

"Well! Master President. I will always believe in you. Akali is the same!"

"That's good. Just in case, you take three magic airships back. I'll wait for your good news." Xu Yi smiled slightly. "Of course, maybe by the time you come here again, Akali has already been rescued by me."

Evita nodded and quickly stood up.

"It's not too late, Mr. Chairman, let's start to act."

"it is good."

After a while, the three magic airships carried Evita and 150 guards back to the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. The remaining seven magic airships turned to the southwest and flew to the west of the private estate of Earl Dole. It fell from a hill thirty kilometers away.

Overnight.

Early the next morning, when the sun had just shone from the eastern horizon and reflected the road in front of the gate of Earl Dole's private estate in orange, Xu Yi appeared in front of the gate.

The two personal guards of Earl Dole, who were in charge of guarding the gate of the private manor, glanced at Xu Yi in astonishment, recognized him immediately, and greeted him nervously.

Seeing the two personal guards clasping the weapons in their hands, but hesitating whether to point at Xu Yi, Xu Yi smiled slightly, nodded to one of them and said, "Go and inform Earl Dole, and tell him the new news. Xu Yi, the president of the Flying Chamber of Commerce, is here to visit, if it is convenient for him, I hope we can sit down and have a good talk."

The two private guards looked at each other, and the private guard stared at by Xu Yi hesitated for a moment, nodded, turned around and ran towards the manor.

Seeing him rushing all the way into the gate, Xu Yi sighed and shook his head slightly.

If Earl Dole hadn't been so opposed to the establishment of a magic communication network, the private guard would have been able to notify Earl Dole in the manor through the intercom at the door, so there was no need to go in and notify in person.

Xu Yi glanced at the other personal guard and found that he was nervous, so he smiled at him, turned his head to look at the gate of the manor, and stood there without making any movements.

He was not worried that Earl Dole would refuse to meet with him, because as he analyzed to Evita yesterday, Earl Dole is not a lunatic and a complete idiot. A Kali and a member of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

He is very clear about the consequences of doing so. Even with the support from the Candela Empire, it will not do him any good to offend the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

Sure enough, about ten minutes later, a dilapidated carriage slowly drove out of the manor with the private guard who had just left.

"President Xu, the Earl let you in." The personal guard relayed Earl Dole's order while looking at Xu Yi curiously.

Chairman Xu of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is a legendary figure in the eyes of everyone in the Principality of Standing. Now that he is lucky enough to see it with his own eyes, he must pay more attention.

Xu Yi glanced at the car in front of him, except for two wooden wheels and one that was so worn out that there were even countless cracks, it looked as if it was going to collapse at any time, not to mention any gorgeous decorations, and it didn't even have a sunshade roof. , Even the horses that pull the carts are the carriages of a batch of low-quality old horses, so I couldn't help but smile.

This Count Dole. It was a good thing he had found such a carriage on purpose. It's really hard for him.

But this guy is so stingy. On the contrary, Xu Yi worried that the negotiation with him would be unexpected.

"Let's go."

Xu Yi calmly got into the carriage, and didn't enter the carriage. Instead, he sat on the shaft of the carriage, beside the private guard who was in charge of operating the carriage. He looked casual, as if he was an ordinary civilian.

The personal guard glanced at Xu Yi nervously, then remembered Earl Dole's order, and raised his whip. Steering the carriage, he ran towards the interior of the manor.

After bumping all the way for more than ten minutes, Xu Yicai saw a stretch of buildings in front of the concrete road.

Looking back at the gate of the manor that had disappeared from sight, Xu Yi frowned slightly.

Although his policy of abolishing the private territories of nobles in the Principality of Standing has achieved results, there is no private territory exclusive to the nobles in the Principality of Standing.

However, when these noble lords handed over their private territories, they undoubtedly made a lot of deductions.

Take Earl Dole's private estate as an example.

The policy implemented by Xu Yi through the Congress of the Principality of Standing is that while noble lords turn over their private lands, they can still keep their own private manors, because this is considered ordinary private property and is not restricted by this policy.

As a result, Earl Dole obviously expanded his private estate by at least ten times when he turned over the private land, which is why the private estate became so spacious.

There are many aristocratic lords who do this like Earl Dole, but because of the increased area, it is countless times worse than their private territories. So Xu Yi didn't do it that badly, and acquiesced in the existence of these overly large private manors. It was a bit of a compromise he had reached with these noble lords.

While thinking about these questions, the carriage carried Xu Yi to the building.

Xu Yi jumped down from the shaft of the carriage, rubbed his butt that was a little sore from being bumped by the carriage along the way, and walked directly to the central hall without saying hello to anyone.

Several guards on the way seemed to reach out to stop them, but Xu Yi just walked past them with his head held high, but they didn't do anything to stop them in the end, even though Xu Yi walked in so smoothly.

Walking into the hall, one can see Earl Dole lying on a wide and soft armchair, smiling smirkingly without knowing what he is thinking.

Suddenly seeing Xu Yi walking in, Earl Dole was startled, couldn't help jumping up from his chair, pointed at Xu Yi and shouted loudly: "How did you come in?"

Xu Yi laughed: "Isn't it already passed on?"

Earl Dole was startled, and then he realized that his reaction just now seemed a bit embarrassing, so he glared viciously at the two personal guards who followed Xu Yi.

"How did you open the door? Just let people in? Do you still want to hang out here?"

The two personal guards lowered their heads, not daring to make any rebuttals.

"Okay, get out soon..." After getting angry at them, Earl Dole shook his hands, as if wanting them to get out, after hesitating for a while, he abruptly took the words back and snorted coldly , sat down again.

Seeing that he turned his eyes, Xu Yi smiled and said, "Count Dole, where is the Duchess now?"

Earl Dole glanced at Xu Yi, and said with disdain: "What do you think you are? Is your aunt something you can see if you want?"

Xu Yi shrugged, not being moved by Earl Dole's words, nodded, and continued: "Then Earl Dole, can you make the decisions here?"

"Nonsense! I am the master here, I can't be the master, who can be the master?" Count Dole said angrily.

"Really?" Xu Yi showed a mocking smile. "Okay then, Earl Dole, let's not waste time and start talking about business. After a day of thinking, I feel that I still can't give up these subordinates of the Chamber of Commerce, so I came to visit today, hoping to have a talk with you .Count Dole, tell me, what must I do before you will release them?"

Earl Dole looked like he knew you would do this a long time ago, he laughed and said: "President Xu, President Xu, if you were so smart yesterday, how could your subordinates have suffered an extra day for nothing. Let them know that you, the president, turned around and ran away, what do you think they will think?"

Xu Yi was still unmoved, and responded indifferently: "What they think is their business. I just want to know now, what will you do to release them?"

Earl Dole snorted coldly, leaned back on the soft chair, and looked at Xu Yi with a proud face.

"How can you release them? It's very simple, as long as you agree to my conditions, I promise to release them as quickly as possible."

"Okay, tell me your conditions."

"Listen up. First, give me back the private land that should belong to me. Second..."

"impossible."

Xu Yi coldly interrupted Earl Dole. (To be continued..)
