Chapter 37 Do you really want to be a pirate?

While Director Nal was worried about the decision of Norton's Principality, Xu Yi, who was two thousand kilometers away, had just moved away from the Norton's Principality on the map, with a relaxed expression.︾w.

Although Norton's Principality gave up his cooperation with the New Air Chamber of Commerce disappointed him, he did not think this was a big problem.

The development process of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce cannot always be smooth sailing. According to Xu Yi's own ideas, it is always necessary to leave a certain amount of room for development for other magic machinery chambers.

The Principality of Norton took the initiative to choose Anko Magic Chamber of Commerce to cooperate, which did not go against his original wishes, but even made him feel even more relieved.

His eyes continued to move on the map, and after a brief stop on the Principality of Milando, he stopped downwards at the position of the Kingdom of Rulson.

Looking at the dozen or so small black dots marked on the map, Xu Yi touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

The cooperation between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Rulson Kingdom has been very smooth.

With the strong support of King Trucs, the New Air Chamber of Commerce was able to obtain approval whether it was to invest directly in the Rulson Kingdom to open a factory or to join the local Chamber of Commerce, and never encountered official obstacles.

Now the New Flying Chamber of Commerce is blooming everywhere in the Rursson Kingdom, and all kinds of new flying magic machines are sold everywhere.

This year only nine months have passed, and the profits obtained by the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce in the Kingdom of Rulson alone have reached more than 5 million gold coins, which is not much worse than the profits of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce in the Kingdom of Lampari.

Of course, this also involves the New Air Flight Chamber of Commerce in the Kingdom of Lampari, which has joint venture factories, and its interests need to be divided into the Kingdom of Lampari.

However, under such a large-scale cooperation situation, there is a problem that has always troubled Xu Yi.

The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Kingdom of Rursson will receive strong support from King Trutz no matter what cooperation is. However, the only result that does not satisfy Xu Yi is in the mineral resource transaction.

The only territory that the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce can fully grasp is the only one in the Principality of Stantin.

But the Principality of Stantin is not large after all, and its mineral resources are limited.

With the increasing production scale of the New Air Chamber of Commerce and the rapidly expanding demand for magical machinery from the outside world, the mineral resources of the Principal of Stantin will obviously not keep up with the consumption of the New Air Chamber of Commerce.

So Xu Yi has been purchasing a large amount of mineral resources from other surrounding countries.

Among them, the Lampari Kingdom is the party that provides the most mineral resources to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

Just last month, according to statistics, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce purchased a total of 730,000 tons of iron ore and 480,000 tons of other non-ferrous metal ore from the Falkao Chamber of Commerce.

The land area of ​​the Rulson Kingdom and the Lampari Kingdom is almost the same, and mineral resources even won slightly based on exploration. The New Air Chamber of Commerce only purchased only 160,000 tons of iron ore from the Rulson Kingdom last month, and as for non-ferrous metal ore, it only purchased less than 10,000 tons of poorly ferrous metal ore.

Xu Yi mentioned this matter to King Truc many times, hoping to increase the share of various ores sold in the Rulson Kingdom, but King Truc has been dealt with vaguely and has never given Xu Yi a reply that satisfies them.

Xu even claimed that one or two steel mills and non-ferrous metal smelting factories could be opened directly in the Ruhrson Kingdom, mining and smelting locally, and only processed and sold in the Ruhrson Kingdom. It still failed to impress King Truc.

After many tests failed, Xu Yi had to give up helplessly and instead find a way from other channels.

Previously, Neval led a new fleet to Nisi City, trying to purchase various minerals through private channels, which is for this reason.

However, after discussing with Elder Wendini last time, through cooperation with the Azshara tribe, King Truc was very likely to let go of this, which made Xu Yi feel much more relaxed.

But after all, if the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce wants to continue to develop, it is the most important thing to master more resources in its own hands.

I always hope to obtain mineral resources from other countries, and I can't help but feel like I'm being caught by others.

Xu Yi didn't like this feeling very much, so he was always looking for a solution.

After staying on the Kingdom of Rulson for a moment, he turned north and skipped directly past the Kingdom of Lampari, but stayed at the position of the Kingdom of Sak.

Looking at the land area displayed on the map of the Sak Kingdom is at least one-third larger than that of the Lampari Kingdom, and looking at the dozens of black dots marked on it, Xu Yi's eyes couldn't help but become hot.

It is almost impossible to cooperate with the Kingdom of Sakh. So if you want to obtain a large amount of resources in the Kingdom of Sakh, besides purchasing some in a small range through private channels, there is only the only way left, which is to completely conquer the country.

As for how to completely conquer... I have to think about it carefully...

"Tu tuk--"

A slight knock on the door pulled Xu Yi back from his thoughts.

"Is it Betty? Come in." Xu Yi shouted.

The door opened, and Betty, wearing a standard maid outfit, walked in slowly, first showed a standard etiquette to Xu Yi, and then said softly: "Sir, there are guests who want to see you."

"Oh? What guest? Did he say who he is?" Xu Yi's eyes flashed over the maid outfit on Betty's body, and asked with a smile.

After Betty and Carol came here, they saw that Lis and Linda were both pregnant and had difficulty moving, and Xu Yi and Steele were unwilling to recruit more servants, so they took on the role of the maid automatically.

Because they both have undergone rigorous training in the Palace of Lampari, they are extremely skilled in this area.

So after only more than two months of coming, they had already cleaned up the entire manor in an orderly manner and received praise from everyone.

However, out of a hint of grudge and concern in his heart, Xu Yi has never given them a clear identity like Lis and Linda.

However, Betty and Carol did not complain about this. On the contrary, they seemed very happy every day and repeatedly said that it was much easier and more comfortable to stay here than staying in the palace.

"He called himself Leslie Stark. He also said...and asked President, you can see him as soon as possible. He doesn't have much time."

Betty's expression was a bit strange when she said this.

I have been here for more than two months and have received many guests who come to visit Xu Yi, but no matter what kind of guests they ask for, they are extremely polite, and no one has ever been so arrogant.

However, Xu Yi did not look surprised at all, but smiled and said, "It's him. I'll just say that he should have appeared long ago when he heard the news that our fleet arrived in Nishi City."

Betty followed Xu Yi curiously. He left the study and went to the living room. He saw the young man in his thirties who was sitting on a chair, looking lazy, as if he didn't regard himself as a guest at all.

"Hey, Leslie, why are you so dark?" Xu Yi glanced at Leslie up and down and couldn't help laughing. "You used to be a standard little white-faced, but now you suddenly turned into black charcoal, which made those noble ladies and wives see it. Wouldn't you be very disappointed?"

Leslie, who turned into a healthy bronze color, was completely different from the pale unique to the children of the previous nobles, laughed.

"I've told you a long time ago. Those noble ladies and wives mainly look at their faces. Believe it or not, I will scream in surprise even if I become like this and let them see it?"

Xu Yi smiled and shook his head: "I believe it. OK, let me not say this nonsense, tell me where have you been there during this period? Judging from your appearance, if I guess correctly, you should have gone to the sea?"

"You're not wrong," Leslie smiled. "I've been wandering on the sea for more than half a year, so I've become so dark."

Xu Yi looked at Leslie with a strange expression.

"Hey, don't you really want to go to be a pirate, right?"

"It's nothing wrong with being a pirate." Leslie shrugged and then stretched out his hand to Xu Yi. "Okay, what about you promised my ship? I heard that the fleet organized by your new flight merchants sailed more than 2,000 kilometers on the sea and successfully arrived at the Rulson Kingdom from the Principal of Stantin. With this technology, it should be no problem for the ship promised to me?"

Xu Yi looked down at Leslie's stretched out hand, stretched out a finger and tapped it.

"There is no problem with the ship, but what about your money? A large magic ship that can drive from here to the Kingdom of Rulson is costing more than two million gold coins. Our Chamber of Commerce has only built three ships so far. Are you sure you can take out two million gold coins?"

"Two million gold coins?" Leslie was stunned. "Hey, Xu Yi, are you scaring me? Just a ship, is it so expensive?"

Xu Yi smiled and said, "It seems that you haven't seen those three ships with your own eyes yet. No wonder you asked this question. I can guarantee that if you saw it with your own eyes, you will definitely not ask such a stupid question again."

Leslie frowned, not angry, but was silent for a moment, spreading his hands, and said calmly: "Okay, I really can't take out so many 2 million gold coins in one go. But Xu Yi, since you can build a big ship, you must be able to build a smaller ship, right? Well... I need to be bigger than a magic charge boat... four or five times larger, just such a big ship, I think it's enough for me to rush around at sea."

Xu Yi shook his head slowly: "No, Leslie. The appearance of the large magic ship of our New Flying Chamber of Commerce means that the era when we could only rely on a few broken wooden boats to roam the sea is over. I sincerely advise you that it is best to use a large ship directly, because only a large ship can make you safer at sea."

Leslie frowned: "I said, Xu Yi, are you deliberately annoying me? I obviously can't afford to pay, but you insist on recommending me a big ship that I can't afford. In fact, you can't build it for the time being, so you deliberately ruling it?"

"That's not. I have the boat, and I can give it to you if you don't have enough money. But..."

"What? Want to use me?" Seeing the slightly weird smile on Xu Yi's face, Leslie smiled, slowed down, leaned comfortably on the back of the chair, and said to Xu Yi leisurely: "Okay. I can be used by you, but it depends on what price you offer."

Xu Yi couldn't help rolling his eyes.

"What is the use of it? It sounds so unpleasant. This is cooperation. Do you understand cooperation?"

Leslie sneered: "Okay, is there any difference? Tell me quickly, what do you want me to do?"

Xu Yi turned his head and looked at Betty who was standing beside him.

Betty immediately understood, bowed to the two of them and retreated.

Seeing Xu Yi being so serious, Leslie put away his relaxed expression, sat upright, and looked at Xu Yi.

Xu Yi coughed lightly and said in a deep voice: "Leslie, I don't object to you want to be a pirate, but if you run to be a pirate like this without any foundation, you are simply dying."

"And what? What do you think?"

Xu Yi smiled and showed a tempting smile.

"Actually, our New Air Chamber of Commerce escort is about to form an armed fleet. Are you interested?" (To be continued, please search for Piaotianwen, the novel is better, updated and faster!
