Chapter 20 Acquisitions

"President Xu, our Chimera Chamber of Commerce is interested in acquiring your New Flying Chamber of Commerce for a total price of 76 million gold coins. This is an agreement, please check it out.∈♀”

Looking at the thin agreement handed over by Otov, Xu Yi was stunned for a while, first looked at Russell, saw that he looked calm, and then looked at Otov. He found that he had a serious expression, so he was sure that the other party had no intention of joking.

However, after another glance at the agreement in Otov's hand, Xu Yi still felt extremely absurd in his heart.

After a long time, the reason why Otov didn't say a word during the meeting just now was not because he was reluctant, but because he didn't need to talk to Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for any cooperation.

We have to fully acquire your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, what else do we need to discuss cooperation!

Xu Yi frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and reached out and pushed away the agreement.

"Sorry, Superintendent Otov, I don't have any plans to sell the New Air Chamber of Commerce right now."

Otov's expression remained unchanged and pushed the agreement back again.

"President Xu, look at it and there is no loss to you. If you are not satisfied with the conditions, we can negotiate."

"No need, I have no plans for this, and there is nothing to negotiate." Xu Yi said firmly, but still had a smile on his face.

After all, the Chimera Chamber of Commerce is the largest chamber of commerce in the mainland. If possible, Xu Yi still hopes to cooperate with the other party and not offend him.

Moreover, judging by the Chimera Chamber of Commerce's sudden plan to acquire the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it can be seen that they are not disdainful of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. They should take it very seriously, otherwise they would not have thought about the acquisition.

"President Xu. I suggest you take a look. It will be good for you." Otov didn't say anything. Russell, who was beside him, spoke.

Xu Yi looked at Russell in surprise and thought to himself that Chimera Chamber of Commerce wanted to acquire the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. What does it have to do with you and the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Naval Staff of the Candela Empire?

However, thinking about the Chimera Chamber of Commerce, as the largest chamber of commerce in the mainland and the largest chamber of commerce in the Candela Empire, must have close ties with all forces within the Candela Empire. It is not surprising that Russell will cooperate with the actions of the Chimera Chamber of commerce.

After hesitating for a moment, Xu Yi took the agreement from Otov.

Russell and Otov looked at each other and smiled. They sat down separately and waited patiently for Xu Yi's response.

When Xu Yi watched the agreement, he seemed very focused on the surface, but in fact he was very careless.

The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has condensed all his efforts and ideals, how could he sell it?

Moreover, even if we put aside these factors, Xu Yi could not agree just by taking the price of 76 million gold coins offered by the Chimera Chamber of Commerce.

The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's net income this year may exceed 30 million gold coins. As long as nothing unexpected happens in the next few years, it will only continue to increase significantly.

The 76 million gold coins look a lot, but in fact they are just numbers that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can earn in two to three years.

Want to acquire the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce with such a little money?

Xu Yi can only say that although the Chimera Chamber of Commerce has seen the potential of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce, it still underestimates the strength of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce too much.

The contents in the agreement were not beyond Xu Yi's expectations. The main theme was that the Chimera Chamber of Commerce hoped to acquire the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce through a total price of 76 million gold coins.

These acquisitions include everything that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce currently has, including various processing plants, research institutes, all employees and various magic machinery related technical information, etc.

Simply put, it is to package the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and sell it to the Chimera Chamber of Commerce, and the only one who left Xu Yi was his private manor in the Principal of Stantin.

After roughly scanning the agreement, Xu Yi couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

The Chimera Chamber of Commerce has a big appetite and doesn't leave any room for itself. It seems that even if they have a certain understanding of the New Air Chamber of Commerce, they still don't know enough.

Seeing Xu Yi close the agreement, Otov finally showed his first smile since he saw him.

"After reading it? President Xu, if you think there is no problem, we will sign the agreement."

Xu Yi looked at Otov with wonder, thinking to himself what kind of brain circuit this guy is, why did he look like he was sure that he would sign this agreement?

"Thank you for the good intentions of the Chimera Chamber, but I'm sorry, I still don't have any idea of ​​selling the New Air Chamber of Commerce." Xu Yi replied. "Supervisor Otov, if you are on behalf of the Chimera Chamber of Commerce to discuss cooperation with us, I am very welcome. But if you are just here to negotiate the acquisition... then I don't think there is any need for us to continue to discuss."

After saying this, Xu Yi acted as a show of seeing off the guests without hesitation.

Otov's face slightly sank: "President Xu, do you really not think about it? You can think clearly that being able to be noticed by our Chimera Chamber of Commerce is something countless chambers of commerce on the mainland of Siones have always dreamed of. If you miss this opportunity, you may not have any chance in the future."

Xu Yi took a sip of tea and smiled without answering.

Seeing that Xu Yi actually showed this attitude, Otov's face became even heavier and turned to look at Russell.

Russell smiled awkwardly and said to Xu Yi: "President Xu, Director Otov is right. It is your luck to be attracted by the Chimera merchants. You should think carefully about it."

Xu Yike didn't give Otov a face that was arrogant from beginning to end, but he had to estimate Russell's face. After hearing this, he pondered for a moment, but still shook his head firmly.

"No need to think about it. Lord Russell, I am very grateful to you for bringing the representatives of the Chimera Chamber of Commerce, but the idea of ​​selling the New Air Chamber of Commerce will never exist in my mind, so this matter is not discussed."

Seeing Xu Yi's attitude firm, Russell could only turn his head helplessly and look at Ortov.

Otov snorted coldly: "President Xu, I hope you can consider this consequence clearly. I will give you another month. If you change your mind, please feel free to contact us."

After saying that, he ignored Xu Yi's reaction and left straight away.

Only Xu Yi and Russell were left in the house. Russell hesitated for a moment and did not leave with Otov. Instead, he thought about it and smiled bitterly to Xu Yi.

"President Xu, I just thought the Chimera Chamber of Commerce also hoped to come to discuss cooperation with your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but I didn't expect..."

Russell sighed, shook his head, looking a little regretful.

Xu Yi twitched the corner of his mouth, thinking that you didn't show any surprise when Otov made the request just now, but now he refuses that he doesn't know in advance, who are you lying to?

However, there is no need to expose such a thing. Xu Yi nodded without commenting and changed the topic: "Sir Russell, let's talk about the serious matters. What are you going to discuss with me this time?"

Listening to Xu Yi's serious matter, Russell took a breath, was shocked, and nodded and replied: "Of course it's still about the new fleet we formed. President Xu, the three frigates you provided have now officially served in the Royal Navy, and with the support of the technicians you provided, their operating conditions are in good condition. The navy is very satisfied with these three frigates. But... there is a problem."

"Speaking."

"In addition to the magic artillery on the ship, these three frigates are not equipped with any other types of military magic machinery configured on the frigate of your New Flying Chamber of Commerce, so they are still a little worse in firepower. Although they are much stronger than the combat ships we used before, they are not as good as your New Flying Chamber of Commerce frigate. So in order to fully utilize the power of these three frigates, I hope you can provide other military magic machinery with the same equipment at the same time."

"Mr. Russell, if I remember correctly, I had already raised this question when I sold these three frigates to you. However, the reason why these three frigates were not equipped with other types of military magic machinery was because you voluntarily refused. It's not our business, right?" Xu Yi retorted.

"This..." Russell smiled awkwardly. "The price you offered was a frigate equipped with other military magic machinery. The ones that were not assembled only cost one and a half million gold coins. The price difference is still a bit big..."

"It's better to say that you are poor..." Xu Yi murmured in his heart, nodded, and asked again: "Then are you willing to accept this difference now?"

"You can't say you're completely accepting it. After all, it takes 500,000 gold coins just to install some military magic machinery on a frigate, which is a bit too much. Let's do you think about it if you add a 200,000 gold coins?"

"Twenty-hundred thousand gold coins?" Xu Yi widened his eyes exaggeratedly. "Sir Russell, are you kidding? Two hundred thousand gold coins are not enough for us!"

"President Xu, you are not kind anymore?" Russell shook his head. "It's just some simple military magic machinery. How could a 200,000 gold coins still lose money?"

Xu Yi snorted coldly: "Do you think it's not a loss? Well, you guys can solve it yourself."

Russell frowned deeply, but unexpectedly did not continue to argue with Xu Yi or bargain. Instead, he thought for a moment and stood up.

"Okay, President Xu, since the price cannot be negotiated for a while, let's talk about this matter later. In addition to discussing the installation of military magic machinery, there are some other things that need to be discussed with you. Can you take me to your shipyard for a visit? Let's talk as we go."

Xu Yi was surprised.

This Russell should not be the one who would give up so easily, and adding weapons and equipment to the frigate should be something that the Candela Empire Navy attaches great importance to. Why did he not continue to talk so carelessly?

Contacting Otov just now, Xu Yi always felt that Russell and others came to exude a strange aura this time.
