Chapter 52

(Suddenly found that "Cantona Empire" appeared several times before... The previous ones are not easy to change, I will pay attention to it in the future, everyone forgive me.)

———————

Although Cantona has become the president of a good-scale chamber of commerce, after all, he is just an ordinary farmer outside the city of Bonta. What does the Marquis Southgate's sudden change have to do with his attitude.

But the Marquis of Southgate himself is of course well aware.

When President Cantona found Riley, Marquis Southgate happened to be discussing the war between the Rulson Kingdom and the Candela Empire with two people.

"According to various sources of information, the key reason why the Candela Empire has suffered repeated defeats on the frontal battlefield is that the Luerxun Kingdom is equipped with a large number of military magic machines, so the combat effectiveness of the army is far superior. And this plays a key role According to intelligence, the military magic machine came from a small chamber of commerce that was not well-known in the Principality of Standing."

The person who said this was a middle-aged man with a square face, a serious expression, and a very majestic look.

After saying this, he paused, and gave Marquis Southgate a meaningful look.

"Marquis Southgate, although this small chamber of commerce is not well-known in our Marlow Empire, I think you should know it very well."

"Duke Roosevelt, you must be talking about the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce." Marquis Southgate smiled slightly, and suddenly brought the topic to himself, the Duke of Roosevelt, who held great power in the Marlowe headquarters. Not much of a surprise. "That's right, I do know Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but if I say I know it very well... I can only say that I know it better than other people in the empire. But I don't know it in detail."

Duke Roosevelt frowned: "But I heard that you have personally visited the Principality of Standing twice before and after. Then you introduced this new flying merchant association to your private territory. Now it seems that you are still with this new flying merchant and Some small businessmen from other countries will cooperate to set up factories on your private land?"

"Yes." Marquis Southgate nodded.

"So... Marquis Southgate. How much do you know about the military magic machinery of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?" Duke Roosevelt asked.

"If I say that I don't know anything about military magic machinery, will you believe me?" Marquis Southgate spread his hands, shook his head, and sighed: "I was interested in the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce at first, just because I didn't intend to I came into contact with all kinds of household magic machines produced by their chamber of commerce. Later, I found cooperation with Xinfei chamber of commerce and introduced them to my private domain, which only involved household magic machines and had nothing to do with military magic machines.”

"Really?" Duke Roosevelt narrowed his eyes.

Marquis Southgate turned his head to look at a middle-aged man with a kind face on the other side.

"Regarding the introduction of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and other merchants, I have reported to the Imperial Commerce Department and the Noble Territory Management Office under the Noble Council. Earl Deng Prue should know."

The middle-aged man with a kind face smiled and nodded: "Yes, Marquis Southgate has submitted a complete filing application to the Ministry of Commerce, so the Ministry of Commerce is very clear about these things. Including the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it is now in Southgate The chambers of commerce expected to invest and operate in the private domain of the Marquis de Marquis are legitimate chambers of commerce with legal procedures from the Kingdom of Lampari and the Principality of Standing, and there is no problem."

Duke Roosevelt glanced at Earl Dunlop, frowned slightly, feeling a little dissatisfied.

He is not interested in what business those chambers of commerce do on Marquis Southgate's private territory, he only cares about what the cooperation between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and Marquis Southgate involves.

Or to be more precise. Is there any cooperation involving military magic machinery?

After the two invasions of the Rulson Kingdom by the Candela Empire suffered disastrous defeats, the role of military magic machinery in the two invasions of the Rulson Kingdom against the Kandla Empire immediately attracted the attention of all countries on the continent.

As the only enemy of the Candela Empire on this continent. The Maro Empire naturally paid more attention to this.

He found Marquis Southgate this time on behalf of the military department, hoping to get more information about military magic machinery from Marquis Southgate.

However, the attitude shown by Marquis Southgate was not so cooperative, which made him a little dissatisfied.

After pondering for a moment, he collected himself, made the expression on his face more serious, and stared straight at Marquis Southgate.

"Marquis Southgate, the military magic machinery is of great significance, and the Imperial Army attaches great importance to it. So I hope you can cooperate with the military and provide as accurate information as possible."

The Marquis of Southgate glanced at Earl Deng Prue next to him, saw him nodding slightly, understood in his heart, paused intentionally, nodded and said: "Well, as a citizen of the empire, it is right to contribute one's own strength to the empire. Yes. But I really don’t know much about military magic machines, so I can’t provide much specific information.”

Hearing this, Duke Roosevelt's face darkened.

However, Marquis Southgate changed the subject.

"However, I can act as an intermediary to get in touch with the military department and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. What do you think?"

Duke Roosevelt immediately calmed down, and said with a chuckle: "If this is the case, then of course it would be better. Well... the military department attaches great importance to this matter, so I hope you can get in touch with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce as soon as possible."

"no problem."

Seeing that Marquis Southgate agreed to come down, Duke Roosevelt didn't talk nonsense, and immediately bid farewell to Marquis Southgate and left.

After leaving Marquis Southgate and Earl Dunplore behind, Marquis Southgate was silent for a while, then asked Earl Dunplore with a frown, "Your Commerce Department is very cooperative this time."

Earl Deng Plue looked up to the sky and laughed: "This is the personal instruction of His Majesty the Emperor, but no one dares not to be careful."

Marquis Southgate was shocked: "Even His Majesty the Emperor was alarmed?"

"That's right." Earl Dunlop glanced at Marquis Southgate, and his expression became serious. "Master Marquis, you should be very clear. As far as the empire is concerned, only the Candela Empire can be called our enemy on this continent. But such an enemy we must admit is powerful. It is only because the military magic machine is here The small country of Luerxun Kingdom has suffered a disastrous defeat. Do you think... His Majesty the Emperor will not take this seriously?"

Marquis Southgate was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but nodded.

"Well, that's right. Speaking of which, it's really unbelievable. The third legion of the Candela Empire can already be regarded as the elite of the Candela Empire, but it has no power to fight back against the army of the Rulson Kingdom. This is too unbelievable. "

Speaking of this, the expression on the face of the Marquis after Southgate became weird.

"Speaking of it... I just took a fancy to the useful household magic machines produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, so I thought about pulling them over. But I didn't expect it. This time I actually pulled a big fish... "

Earl Deng Plue smiled, and said with formalities: "The matter of military magic machinery is a headache for the military. Compared with that, I am more concerned about the household magic machinery you mentioned. Marquis, you are the person who knows these things best. , do you think these things have a future in the empire?"

"Of course!" Marquis Southgate immediately looked serious. "I can be 100% sure that with the convenience brought by these household magic machines, it is guaranteed to be welcomed by everyone in the empire. I can even assert that within a few years, these household magics will be popular everywhere in the empire mechanical!"

"Is that so?" Earl Deng Pluo rubbed his chin and thought for a while. Approaching the Marquis of Southgate, he said solemnly: "Then, Lord Marquis. On behalf of the Ministry of Commerce, I am making a formal request to you. I hope you can help me contact the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce as an intermediary."

"no problem."

Compared to facing Duke Roosevelt just now, Marquis Southgate agreed without hesitation this time.

Xu Yi glanced at the tall stack of invitations that Twisty had piled up in front of him, and pointed to the trash can in the distance.

"Throw it all away."

"All?" Twisty asked in surprise.

"Well, all of them." Xu Yi nodded, and then added. "If you have this kind of thing again in the future, don't show it to me, just throw it away."

"Oh."

Twisty responded, picked up the stack of invitations again, and threw them all into the trash can.

Seeing her actions, Xu Yi smiled with satisfaction.

This is the advantage of Twisty being an elf girl. Compared with her human subordinates, she is actually much more obedient, and she will never ask such nonsense.

If it was Kennard, now Xu Yidao would definitely understand why he did this.

In fact, the reason for doing so was very simple, it was simply that Xu Yi was too lazy to go.

During this period of time, the invitations to the high-level members of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce were like snowflakes. As the president, the invitations Xu Yi received were even more exaggerated.

Although there were many big shots who sent out these invitations, and there might even be a lot of big shots from the Candela Empire and the Maro Empire among them, Xu Yi didn't want to pay any attention to them.

He had expected this situation a long time ago. Since the Rulson Kingdom had performed so well in resisting the two previous invasions of the Kendela Empire, the military magic machinery that shined in it would naturally attract the attention of countless people.

Naturally, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, which produces these military magic machines, will of course become everyone's focus.

It can be said that the current Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has perfectly established its reputation in the entire continent through the war between the Rulson Kingdom and the Candela Empire, making the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce truly become a well-known chamber of commerce in the entire continent. intended target.

But Xu Yike was not dazzled by this.

It is very good to establish the reputation of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce on this continent, but Xu Yi's purpose is not to sell military magic machines, but to let everyone know the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce through military magic machines, and then understand the main functions of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Civilian magic machinery produced.

The problem that bothers Xu Yi at present is how to shift the attention of these people from military magic machines to civilian magic machines. (To be continued..)
