Chapter 119 Inexplicable Objections
"Carolyn County is mainly here?"
Steele took back the private letter written on the pink letter paper in Xu Yi's hand, looked up at Xu Yi, with a smile on his face. ←
"Has she made a special trip to see you?"
Xu Yi gave her annoyed look: "How come she is so free? This time she has something to come over and said she will bring me two very special guests."
"A very special guest?" Steele frowned slightly. "Who does anyone need her to bring her here in person?"
"I didn't say it in the letter, and I don't know why she was trying to keep it in the trap." Xu Yi shook the letter in his hand, a little confused.
Although Princess Caroline often sends some private messages to herself, most of the letters were asking herself about the cooperation between the Principality of Drak and the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce, but it was the first time that she would come to the Principality of Stantin to see her.
If Princess Caroline had the attitude of trying to seduce him before, then since he got married and had children, and the cooperation between the Principality of Drak and the New Air Flight Chamber of Commerce gradually stabilized, she has restrained a lot, but she would just tease Xu Yi verbally.
This time, Xu Yi was surprised that he suddenly had to come in person and said that he would bring him two special guests.
"I think it's just an excuse to come to see you." Steele chuckled.
"You really can think about it." Xu Yi glared at Steele, put the letter aside, his eyes fell on Steele's lower abdomen, and said with concern: "I think you are pregnant, which will cause you to have random thoughts. Listen to me, Steele, you should take more rest during this period. It is better not to participate in the work too much."
"That won't work." Steele shook his head. "Now is an important time for our Crescent Chamber of Commerce to promote vision videos. I have to personally participate in the command. Create a brand new entertainment mode through vision videos and fantasy magic projectors. Isn't this what you have always expected?"
"But I didn't expect you to get pregnant."
"What does that matter? I used to be pregnant with Freia, but it didn't have any impact."
Seeing that Steele was firm in her attitude, Xu Yi thought about it and stopped persuading her. She just reminded Steele to pay attention to her health and not to overwork.
Steele naturally followed the good side, saying that it was his second pregnancy and had enough experience to deal with it.
"When it comes to Fleia... she seems to have asked Lis and Linda to take her to the signal tower to play again. Are you going to inspect the installation of the signal tower in a while? Take her back tonight," Steele explained.
Xu Yi nodded and chatted with Steele about the issue of the illusion video before leaving the private manor.
As soon as you walk out of the manor and look up into the distance, you will find that seven towering towering towers have already stood on the earth in the distance.
This is a new signal tower recently established by the New Air Chamber of Commerce, specifically used to spread magic fluctuations.
Because Akali's research team further made the magic array resonance technology, the magic wave transmission range of the signal tower has increased from the previous five thousand meters to seven thousand meters, so the seven signal towers are separated by about six thousand meters. The arrangement is staggered, just so that the magic wave can be transmitted through these seven signal towers to any place within the large area where the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is located. It is considered perfect coverage.
Xu Yi took out the magic call box from his arms, pressed the button, and Akali's voice immediately sounded inside, although he was a little tired, but still excited.
"Hey, Lord, are there any instructions?"
Xu Yi laughed: "I don't have any instructions, I just want to see your work progress. Where are you now? By the way, have you seen Freia?"
Before Akali could answer, a crisp and pleasant voice sounded from the magic call box.
"Dad, I'm with Aunt Akali and the others. Come on, Aunt Akali won't let me play on the top of the tower."
Xu Yi couldn't help rolling his eyes: "Freia, listen to Aunt Akali obediently, don't be naughty and hinder their work, I'll come here."
"Well, I'll wait for you."
"Freia is very well-behaved, don't worry. Lord, come here, we are doing maintenance work in the No. 4 signal tower."
"good."
Xu Yi raised his head, looked carefully, and confirmed the direction of the No. 4 signal tower. When the magic power in his body moved, he did not directly use space magic to transmit it, but instead flew up and came to the mid-air to fly slowly towards the No. 4 signal tower.
If you look down from a high altitude, you can easily see the current layout of the entire Xinfei Chamber of Commerce’s main base.
Compared to the time when the New Air Chamber of Commerce came here at the beginning, this place has completely changed from a deserted area.
At present, various buildings are towering on this huge land of more than ten square kilometers below.
Among them, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce industrial zone and living residential zone are clearly distinguished. Various factories in the industrial zone occupy more than half of the territory in the north, while the living residential zone occupy the remaining territory in the south.
Seeing that the newly built residence on the southernmost side was close to the Abudante River, Xu Yi confirmed his previous thoughts in his heart.
With the continuous development of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, this main base must also face further expansion.
When he obtained this territory of more than ten square kilometers from Earl Weilun, Xu Yi originally thought that it could at least support the development needs of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce within ten years.
However, just over four years have passed, the land has been completely utilized, which cannot meet the increasingly vigorous demand of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the next step.
In order to develop needs, it is imperative to expand the scope of this territory.
However, when Xu Yi proposed to Congress at the Principality of Stantin, he unexpectedly received opposition from many members of the Congress, so that this proposal was not passed at the Congress meeting.
Although Speaker Anklu later privately told Xu Yi that he could propose to the Congress of Parliament to lease new land and that it would definitely pass, this meeting still made Xu Yi feel a little alert.
He originally thought that with the current strong influence of the New Air Chamber of Commerce on the Principality of Stantin, there would be no problem with any request he made.
However, I didn't expect that this requirement for the expansion of territory that was very important for the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce was actually boycotted.
The party against this proposal gave a lot of reasons. The claim that the Principality of Stantin never granted territory to private aristocratic territory, Xu Yi suddenly made this demand, contrary to the tradition of the Principality for hundreds of years.
Xu Yi originally scoffed at this reason, because before that, there was no fixed statement on how many territory the noble lords in the Duke of Stantin had under their name. They rely entirely on their personal strength. If you want to, grab it. It will be yours.
Now when he was in need of a new territory, it was ridiculous to say that the Principality of Stantin had never had this tradition.
But later after an explanation on the spot by the parliamentary meeting, he realized that the previous territorial battle between noble lords in the Duke of Stantin was indeed not truly recognized in name.
The so-called Grand Duke Stantin’s official recognition is just the private behavior of Grand Duke Stantin, and in strict sense it is not considered the official recognition of the Principality of the Grand Duke Stantin.
From this point of view, the members of the parliamentarians who opposed Xu Yi's proposal were not wrong.
However, this nominal problem should not have been a problem for Xu Yi.
With the current strong influence of the New Air Chamber of Commerce on the Principality of Stantin, even if there is any problem in name, it will definitely be able to come up with countless ways to solve this problem.
But so many members of parliament had clearly expressed their opposition at this Congress meeting. This made Xu Yi feel a little angry and he also felt vigilant.
Behind every member of the parliament is a noble lord from the Duke of Stantin, and the opposition of these members means that these noble lords oppose Xu Yi.
However, this is what makes Xu Yi the most puzzled.
Why do these noble lords in the public oppose Xu Yi’s proposal?
Who gave them the courage to oppose Xu Yi's proposal?
You should know that according to Congress statistics, the total fiscal revenue collected by the Principality of Stantine last year was about 4.7 million gold coins, of which three million gold coins were handed over by the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce.
This alone shows that the New Air Chamber of Commerce has an extremely powerful influence on the Principality of Stantin.
And if you consider the impact of reality, it would be even more amazing.
The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce currently has opened 93 factories of various types in the Stantin public, with more than 200,000 employees.
Among these employees, more than 70,000 were recruited locally from the Principality of Stantin.
In addition, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and all the noble lords in the public sector have cooperated to create various factories - most of which are canned fruit factories and rubber processing factories, and the total number of workers employed in these factories is more than 100,000.
Therefore, the people of the Principality of the Stantin who benefited directly by the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce had exceeded 180,000. In addition, the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce had driven the magic industry in the Duke of Stantin, which led to the strong development of other industries. The people of the Principality of the Stantin who benefited by the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce had exceeded hundreds of thousands.
It is not an exaggeration to say that almost no one in the entire Stantin Mansion is affected by the New Air Chamber of Commerce.
And all these effects are positive.
The emergence of the New Air Chamber of Commerce has enabled almost all civilians in the Stantin Duke to have formal jobs, and their incomes are far beyond the past, which has greatly improved their lives.
In addition, the New Air Chamber of Commerce has also paved roads, built street lights everywhere in the Dutch of Stantin, and invested heavily in infrastructure such as automatic water supply systems, which has made the Dutch of Stantin from the previous small priest with low traffic and extremely backward living standards in one fell swoop into the "most advanced country" mentioned by people in several surrounding countries, and has a very strong influence among nearby countries.
So it can be said that the current Principality of Stantin is simply the country of the New Air Chamber of Commerce.
If there were no New Flying Chamber of Commerce, the Principality of Stantin would be nothing.
So Xu Yi couldn't understand why these noble lords opposed him?
