This special object is Viscount Leslie.☆→,

Viscount Leslie led the remaining subordinates of the Stark family to stay on Paradise Island for ten years, and had already completely taken Paradise Island under his control.

With the support of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, Paradise Island has already developed a good magic industry. Because of Xu Yi's proposal, Viscount Leslie positioned the main development direction of Paradise Island in the ship industry and marine fishery.

Paradise Island now has four ports and three shipyards, which can manufacture at least five large cargo magic ships and more than twenty frigates each year, and the output is even comparable to several shipyards at the main base of the New Air Chamber of Commerce.

Most of these ships were supplied to the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce, while a small part was left for personal use by Viscount Leslie.

With the marine military magic machinery provided by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, Viscount Leslie has controlled a huge fleet of eight large cargo magic ships and twenty-seven magic frigates after years of development.

These eight large cargo magic ships combined with other small cargo magic ships form a fleet with extremely strong transportation capabilities. They can not only afford the trade between Paradise Island and the Continent of Sainz, but also accept the sea transportation requirements put forward by many countries and chambers of commerce on the Continent of Sainz.

The Leslie Chamber of Commerce's shipping is second only to the New Flying Transport Chamber of Commerce. Even the New Flying Chamber of Commerce will sometimes hire Leslie Chamber of Commerce's ships to help complete the shipping.

It can be said that after Leslie arrived at Paradise Island, he found a new world, giving him a space to fully utilize his abilities and stretch his fists.

And he performed very well. He managed Paradise Island in an orderly manner.

Last year, Xu Yi was invited by Leslie to visit Paradise Island and found that this island had a significant improvement compared to the desolate and backward situation when he first discovered it.

Although it is just an island with a total area of ​​only more than 20 square kilometers, Leslie still built a complete highway network on the island and also built a roundabout road along the coast, making the island's transportation extremely convenient.

At the same time, he also strictly divided the various areas on the island, and the industrial and living areas were completely divided, without affecting each other. All buildings were specially planned, making them neat, neat and beautiful.

Then he specially invited a group of elves to go over and re-plan the vegetation on Paradise Island, so that the entire island was bathed in a patch of green grass and red flowers. Whether looking down from the sky or standing everywhere on the island, it looked fresh and pleasant.

Xu Yi even felt that choosing to settle on Paradise Island is a total enjoyment.

Moreover, according to the situation provided by Leslie, the residents of Paradise Island not only have solved the problem of food and clothing, but the average annual income of each person has exceeded 100 gold coins, and everyone has lived a good life of adequate food and clothing. Compared with the past, it is not the same world.

Because of this, although Leslie and the Stark family he led were later rulers, they gained strong support from all the residents of the island and had a very high reputation on the island.

After seeing the situation on Paradise Island with his own eyes, Xu Yi couldn't help but sigh that life here is now truly worthy of its name, just like heaven.

Another meaning he expressed was that he worked hard on the Continent of Sainz for twenty years. Although it had caused great changes on the Continent of Sainz, the lives of people in the two countries, such as the Principality of Stantin and the Kingdom of Lampari, have greatly improved, but what is truly close to his ideal state is the Paradise Island, which began to develop later.

Of course, Paradise Island has a small area and a small population. As long as you choose a right industry to develop with your heart, it will be much easier to change.

Moreover, because Paradise Island is too small, its development space is limited and very fragile.

If you lose your advantage in the shipbuilding industry in the future, Paradise Island will probably be instantly defeated.

Xu Yi knew about this, and of course Leslie was more clear about it.

So Leslie has been looking for more development space and ways out for Paradise Island. He suddenly visited Xu Yi in person last month and asked Xu Yi to share some military magical mechanical technology, which is what he did.

Leslie was unwilling to only manufacture magic ships for the New Air Chamber of Commerce, but still tried to build magic ships and brand new magic warships on this basis.

Xu Yi agreed with his idea, but whether he supported it specifically... Xu Yi was hesitant.

It is obvious that if Paradise Island really has the ability to build various magic ships independently, it can be said that it has a long-term iron rice bowl, ensuring that Paradise Island does not have to worry about not having money to make money in the future.

In addition, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can have a stronger partner and allow the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to obtain more magic ship supply, which is of great help to the development of the Magic Cloud Continent and the future development of more New Continents.

But what Xu Yi was worried about was that under the leadership of Leslie, Paradise Island may be able to be close to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and cooperate happily, and will even continue to cooperate with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce due to the situation for a long time in the future. However, if the situation changes in the future, and there will be frictions and even direct conflicts of interest between Paradise Island and Paradise Island, then this current partner may directly become a powerful enemy.

From a personal perspective, Xu Yi is very happy to help Viscount Leslie, but from the perspective of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it is obviously more inclusive to continue to use Paradise Island as its own OEM factory.

Thinking of this, Xu Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly.

As the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce gradually grew, he encountered more and more such dilemmas.

At first, he was able to stick to his original philosophy without any scruples, continue to open up technology sharing, and promote common development for everyone.

However, the scale of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is getting bigger and bigger, and now it has even developed into a super-large chamber of commerce with a total number of nearly 300,000 employees. Any decision of his will directly involve the fate of these nearly 300,000 employees, and he cannot be willful anymore.

"Is there a way that can help Paradise Island achieve better development and not harm the interests of the New Air Chamber of Commerce?"

Xu Yi frowned and thought.

In fact, if Leslieken accepts it, he has always been a partner of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce. He helped the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce to do various OEMs, and Paradise Island can also flourish for a long time.

But Leslie is capable enough and has a good ambition, so she is definitely unwilling to accept this arrangement.

He now makes this request, obviously for a larger goal.

He even told Xu Yi directly that in order to achieve this request, he could fully open all the manpower and material resources on Paradise Island to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, which shows how determined he is.

"But how can the resources of a mere paradise island be compared with such an important technology as military magical machinery?"

Xu Yi thought about it for a long time and still felt embarrassed.

If you agree, it will be a bit unfavorable for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the long run.

But if you don’t agree, maybe Leslie will feel irresistible now and will still be unfavorable to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

How to grasp the degree in the middle is a difficult problem to grasp.

"Tu tuk"

A very rhythmic knock on the door suddenly rang out.

"Cindy, come in." Xu Yi shouted without looking back.

The door was pushed open, and Cindy walked in and saw Xu Yi staring at the map on the wall, showing a knowing smile.

The president often stares at the map and thinks about some very important issues. She is not surprised by it.

"How is it? What did those guys from the Logistics Department say?" Xu Yi suddenly asked.

"They said that since this is the President's order, they will definitely follow it strictly." Cindy responded.

"Didn't say anything else?"

"No."

"Ha. They know each other's face. It's okay to complain, and it's okay to give suggestions, but things must be done. This is the iron rule of our New Flight Chamber of Commerce." Xu Yi said with a smile, then turned around and saw that Cindy was holding a thick document in her hand, and said in surprise: "What is this?"

Cindy immediately handed the documents to Xu Yi.

"This is a report sent back by the Southern Airship Exploration Team. Please take a look at it, President."

"Oh? The news came back so soon?"

Xu Yi took the file and opened it and saw a huge title on his face.

"The Southern Continent has been confirmed!"

Xu Yi suddenly widened his eyes in surprise and quickly looked carefully.

This so-called Southern Airship Exploration Team is a group of several other exploration teams sent out to the Sines Continent after the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce recently after confirming the existence of the Magic Cloud Continent. It is specifically responsible for heading south of the Sines Continent for exploration.

For the sake of efficiency and safety, these exploration teams are directly equipped with magic airships.

Although such a long-lasting endurance is not as good as a sea fleet, with the current performance of a magic airship, a cruise can exceed a long distance of 5,000 kilometers in one cruise.

If no new continent is found within a range of 5,000 kilometers, it will be of little significance to continue exploring, because the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce does not have so much financial resources and human resources to develop another continent for the time being.

What Xu Yi unexpectedly was that the exploration team had already sent out less than two months ago, and the first news was such a major news.

In this report, the Exploration Team described in detail the situation of its squad flying to the south.

In the first month, according to Xu Yi's arrangement, they kept circled around the southern waters of the Synes continent and expanded their exploration scope as much as possible.

However, within this month they only discovered endless sea water and various islands on the sea surface.

Although some of the islands are large in size, they are far from being a brand new continent.

It was not until the second month that they finally found a continent that could not be seen at all on the sea surface more than 3,000 kilometers away from the Synes continent.

Later, after a week of exploration, they determined that this continent was a real continent, not a relatively large island, because they flew along the continental coastline for nearly a week and did not see another edge of the continent.

After confirming this, the Exploration Team immediately wrote an advanced report on the observation results that had ended here and sent it back.

Next, they will continue to explore the continent further and determine more detailed information.

Xu Yi noticed a sentence in this report.

"I don't know what's going on. This continent seems to be very hot. It's like in summer. After we got off the magic airship, everyone was forced to wear single clothes. If the winter here was already so hot, then the heat would be unimaginable by summer. Maybe it's not suitable for human habitation."

After seeing this sentence, Xu Yi couldn't help laughing.

The continent in the south is not a winter, but a real summer.

The reason why the continent of Sainz has entered winter, the climate is severely cold, but the continent is hot, is very simple, because that continent is just at the other end of the equator of the planet under your feet, and the season is of course the exact opposite to the continent of Sainz in the north of the equator.

Turning to the last page of the report, there is also a brief map sent back by the exploration team.

Xu Yi glanced at the map and showed a smile on his face.

"Okay, I've found a solution." (To be continued...)
