Chapter 23 Let's make a bet

"As for the manufacturing technology of magic machine tools and equipment... I do have the intention of transfer."

Hearing Xu Yi's words, Earl Erwin and Earl Maldouf, who was eavesdropping on the conversation here not far away, lit their eyes at the same time.

"Then... President Xu, why don't we have a good talk now?" Earl Erwin immediately invited Xu Yi.

"Okay." Xu Yi smiled and agreed immediately.

The two did not deliberately lower their voices. Not only did the Earl of Mardouf not far away hear it, but even President Cruise also heard it.

President Cruise glanced at Xu Yi with some confusion, not understanding how he agreed to be so straightforward.

You should know about the manufacturing technology of magic machine tools and equipment. Even when the Kingdom of Lampari wanted to transfer the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce, it took a lot of effort to obtain the consent and transfer of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce.

Later, it took several years to make the Lampari Kingdom basically master the manufacturing technology, and in the past two years, it was able to successfully manufacture some relatively low-end machine tools and equipment.

Now that the Candela Empire has only spoken, Xu Yi has agreed immediately.

In comparison, he is too arrogant, right?

Thinking of the rumors he had specifically brought to Xu Yi before, President Cruise couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied.

Xu Yi was so generous to the Kandra Empire, but so strict with the Lampari Kingdom, which had an extremely close relationship with him. It was really unreasonable.

However, this idea was just wandering around President Cruise's mind, and then he threw it out.

He and Xu Yi have known each other for more than ten years, and they can be said to know Xu Yi very well.

He knew very well that Xu Yi was definitely not like the new and tired of the old and flirting with the power. There might be other reasons for his decision like this.

Thinking of this, President Cruise pressed down the question in his heart and smiled at Earl Mardouf and said, "Sir, our Chamber of Commerce has formulated a plan based on the preliminary exploration results of the two ring roads around Wimbledon. You see...

###

After two days of negotiations, Xu Yi reached a new technology transfer agreement on behalf of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Magic Industry Management Department of the Candela Empire represented by Earl Erwin.

The New Air Chamber of Commerce will transfer a series of related technical materials for various magic machine tools needed to manufacture road engineering materials to the Candela Empire, and will send technicians to assist the Candela Empire in the process of mastering these technologies.

This agreement involves as many as 127 technical projects, with a total amount of 7.6 million gold coins.

At the same time, the Candela Empire also provided some preferential policies to the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce due to this technology transfer. For example, the Magic Industry Management Department of the Candela Empire represented by Earl Erwin listed the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce as one of the important cooperative chambers of commerce of the Magic Industry Management Department. Special treatment will be given to the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce in all aspects.

For example, after the various magical machinery products of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce entered the Candela Empire, they must undergo review by the Ministry of Magic Industry Management before they will be allowed to be officially sold.

Now that it has been listed as an important cooperative chamber of commerce by the Ministry of Magic Industry Management, all products of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce will be exempted from inspection when entering the Candela Empire, and will also become a specially recommended product officially recognized by the Ministry of Magic Industry Management.

The former item can make the products of the New Air Chamber of Commerce less than many procedures when entering the Candela Empire, thus saving a lot of time and manpower.

Although the latter item is not particularly meaningful because of the current reputation of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce, the Ministry of Magic Industry Management promises that if any official official in the Candela Empire needs to use magic machinery in the future, the products of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce will be designated. This item alone can bring immeasurable huge profits to the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce.

If we look at it from the perspective of pure economic interests, the New Air Flight Chamber of Commerce transferred this series of magic machine tool manufacturing technology to the Candela Empire this time is undoubtedly a big profit business.

However, President Cruise, who was watching the whole process and personally participated in the signing ceremony of the agreement, still puzzled him.

"Xu Yi, why did you hand over these precious technologies so easily? If you want me to say, you can completely ignore these guys from the Candela Empire. Since they want to develop, they must need these magic machines. Let them buy them from your chamber of commerce. Wouldn't you be more profitable?"

"If I'm just trying to make money, then your proposal is of course the best choice." Xu Yi shook his head gently. "But it's obvious. I'm not just doing this."

"Well, I know you have always been ambitious and don't care about making this money. But have you ever thought that the Kandra Empire is not a small country after all. If you give them these technical information, as long as they are willing to devote themselves to it, you may not need your Chamber of Commerce to handle those magic machine tools by themselves. At that time, the status of your New Flight Chamber of Commerce in their minds will not be as important as it is now. Don't you think this is very dangerous?"

Xu Yi turned his head and looked at President Cruise, with a hint of joking on his face.

"Do you really think...if I transfer the technical materials to them, they can really make qualified magic machines?"

"I know what you mean. Of course, they cannot completely master it in a short time, but the Candela Empire is a huge empire after all. Give them some time, they will definitely be able to fully master it." President Cruise waved his hand.

"Cruise, you are an old man who has been in this industry for many years. Do you still don't understand the importance of a complete industrial system?" Xu Yi shook his head. "Don't worry, even if the Candela Empire now masters the manufacturing technology of magic machine tools as much as our Chamber of Commerce, they will not be able to use their own strength to create even a magic machine tool."

"How is that possible?" President Cruise looked disbelieving.

"Don't believe it?" Xu Yi smiled slightly. "Then let's make a bet? If the Candela Empire can rely entirely on its own power within three years to create a magic machine tool. I will transfer these same technologies to you the Amrits Chamber of Commerce for free. If they can't, then you Amrits Chamber of Commerce must complete a project for our Chamber of Commerce."

President Cruise frowned: "Xu Yi, this bet seems wrong? Even if there is no bet, will I still refuse if you ask us to help you complete a project?" After saying that, he laughed. "Of course, if you say you don't give a copper coin, then I really have to think about it."

"Of course it's impossible not to pay, but it's still possible to follow the normal project arrangement. However... you may not be willing to do this project. How about it? Are you willing to accept this bet?"

"I may not be willing to do it?" President Cruise frowned and murmured, thinking that the project that Xu Yi gave him could be completed by the Amley Chamber of Commerce. No matter how it is, it would not be too outrageous.

So what is Xu Yi going to do with him? Is it just to make himself believe that the Candela Empire cannot independently build a magic machine tool within three years?

"How is it? Do you gamble?" Seeing that President Cruise was still hesitating, Xu Yi urged.

President Cruise thought for a while and then nodded.

"Okay, then bet! Three years will last. Of course, if the Candela Empire goes well, you will lose next year." President Cruise deliberately showed a slacking look. He laughed and said, "We, the manufacturing technical information of magic machine tools, although our Amrits Chamber of Commerce will not mainly invest in this, it is not good to make some money."

"First of all, you must be able to get it."

Xu Yi smiled, looked up, pointed to the magic car he drove over, and said to President Cruise: "Since you will stay in Wimbledon for a while, then this magic car will be used for you first, and after use it, it will be enough to send it to our Chamber of Commerce to set up a branch here."

President Cruise was stunned: "What are you doing now?"

Xu Yi waved to the left and right, and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce scattered beside him surrounded him.

"Since the magic machine tool technology was transferred to the Candela Empire, do you think the Marlow Empire will let me go?"

"In other words, you are going to continue to rush to the Marlow Empire now?"

"right."

"You gave me the magic car, how do you go?"

Xu Yi smiled but refused to answer. He continued to look up at the sky.

A moment later, a black shadow floated quickly in the sky to the west.

President Cruise suddenly realized: "Hey, it turns out that you are going to fly over with a magic airship. This is indeed much faster than a magic sedan, and it is much more comfortable. By the way, Xu Yi, what about selling me a magic airship? I have more time running around outside than you. If you have a magic airship, you can save a lot of effort."

"The daily consumption and maintenance costs of a magic airship are more than a hundred times that of a magic sedan. Are you sure you need it?" Xu Yi looked at him with some amusement. "And just the price... the price of this magic airship is 500,000 gold coins. Are you really willing to buy it?"

"Five hundred thousand gold coins?" President Cruise's lips twitched, as if he felt a little distressed. However, after thinking about it, he still gritted his teeth hard: "Okay! Five hundred thousand is 500,000! As long as you are willing to sell, I will buy it!"

Xu Yi looked up at the magic airship that was slowly falling in the clearing ground in front of him, and said quietly: "Don't blame me for not reminding you. The Parliament of the Kingdom of Lampari passed the Kingdom air management ban last month, strictly prohibiting all unauthorized flying objects from flying over the Kingdom at will. The magic airship is one of them."

President Cruise was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand without much care.

"This is normal. After all, this thing is flying around in the sky, and the threat is too great. It is also necessary to have ban restrictions. Anyway, with our Amley Chamber of Commerce's current status, it should not be difficult to get a special pass."

"I tell you what this means... Since the Kingdom of Lampari has passed this management ban, it is very likely that other countries on the mainland will follow suit. In other words, if you want to fly around in a magic airship in the future, you may not be so free. In this case, do you still want to buy it?"

Hearing Xu Yi say this, President Cruise's decision that had just made up immediately became shaken.

He bought a magic airship in the hope that it would be more convenient when traveling back and forth between various countries on the mainland in the future. If each country has the same ban, then this convenience will be gone and the meaning of purchasing will be much smaller.

Seeing President Cruise hesitating again, Xu Yi laughed and patted his shoulder: "Let's come to me after you have thought about it."

After saying that, he led his men to the magic airship that had already opened the cabin door. After a while, the cabin door closed and flew to the sky and disappeared.

President Cruise looked blankly at the direction where the magic airship disappeared for a while, then turned around and glanced at the magic car left by Xu Yi, and shook his head helplessly. (To be continued)
