Chapter 97 Agriculture Department

The next morning, Viscount Leslie, who had arrived after hearing the news, stood in front of the warehouse that had been burned into a ball of coke, with a gloomy face.

"How is the loss?" After a while, Viscount Leslie spoke and asked Xu Yi beside him.

"I discovered it early, but there was no loss." Xu Yi responded, frowned slightly, with a confused expression.

Last night, he saw that the spark exploded with his own eyes, but it instantly turned into a ball of flame that enveloped the entire warehouse. It didn't look like an ordinary fire, but it seemed like someone deliberately set fire.

But Xu Yi just arrived in Anweimar City last night, and he didn't know a few people here at all, so naturally there was no question of making enemies with anyone. How could anyone suddenly come up and attack the things he brought?

Hearing Xu Yi's questions, Viscount Leslie was silent for a while, and suddenly waved his hand, signaling Superintendent Ram and the other servants to retreat.

When everyone retreated to the distance, Viscount Leslie sighed softly and said to Xu Yi: "Xu Yi, it's me who implicated you."

Xu Yi was stunned: "Master Viscount, why do you say that?"

Viscount Leslie looked northeast outside the wall of the villa, and a wry smile flashed across his face.

"Because someone doesn't welcome me back, and that's a warning to me."

Xu Yi opened his mouth, but did not ask in the end.

From the tone of Viscount Leslie, it can be inferred that there must be many complicated reasons involved. With Xu Yi's current status and status, it is better not to mainly involve it.

"It seems that these things are not safe to put here. Let's do this. I'll find a safe place for you to store them." Viscount Leslie thought for a while and said.

Xu Yi shook his head: "It's not necessary. Since it has been burned once, I believe the other party must think that these things have been destroyed and should not come to attack again. Besides, Lord Viscount said this is a warning to you, so the purpose of the warning has been achieved, and the result is not very important. I ask Director Ram to strengthen his vigilance here, and it should be fine."

Viscount Leslie frowned: "Xu Yi, these things are so important to your audience this time. Why do I think you are not nervous at all?"

Xu Yi laughed: "I was really nervous before it was burned, but when I saw the fire burning yesterday, I suddenly figured it out. These things are not the key, the key is the meaning of these things. Even if the things here are really destroyed, it is okay. Anyway, our New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce can be produced at any time. Unless those guys can burn all the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce with one torch, it will not make much sense."

Viscount Leslie laughed in silence: "You are free and easy, but aren't you afraid that you can't take out your things when summoned by His Majesty the King?"

"I'm afraid." Xu Yi nodded seriously. "So, Lord Viscount, you have to do me a favor."

###

After seeing Viscount Leslie away, Xu Yi came to the warehouse again. Looking at the burning charred area in front of him, Xu Yi's originally relaxed face gradually sinks.

He didn't tell the truth just now in front of Viscount Leslie.

When the fire broke out last night, Xu Yi clearly felt a trace of magical fluctuations contained in it. It can be seen that there was a magician hidden among the people who came to set fire last night.

Being able to send a magician to do small things like arson shows that the other party attaches great importance to this matter and obviously has made up the determination to succeed.

If Xu Yi hadn't happened to catch up, he made a quick decision to use water magic to control the fire and neutralize the magic destructive power contained in the flames. I'm afraid that even if these things in the warehouse would not be completely burned, they would definitely have some damage.

After thinking for a while, Xu Yi walked to another room far away.

This room was originally a guest room, but because the warehouse was destroyed, Xu Yibian asked Superintendent Ram to transfer everything in the warehouse here.

When you open the door, you can see six strange machines standing in the middle of the room. The dark-fire shell is covered with mottled, looking ferocious, but it is really not very good-looking.

These six machines were brought by Xu Yi from Bangta City this time, including six farmland magic machinery including small magic harvesters, small magic earth loosening machines, small magic excavators, etc.

This time he was summoned by His Majesty the King, and Xu Yi planned to personally demonstrate the power of these machines to His Majesty the King.

The nobles in Bonta City have now been conquered by these machines and have placed orders with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. I believe that His Majesty the King will be no exception.

If His Majesty the King was also impressed and promoted the magic machinery of farmland to the entire Kingdom of Lampari, not only would the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce obtain a lot of profits, but it would also help Xu Yi realize his initial plan earlier.

Xu Yi took a towel and carefully wiped the surfaces of the six machines.

This work is time-consuming, but Xu Yi was not at ease to hand it over to the servants who had no knowledge of these machines, so he had to do it himself.

It took him more than half an hour to roughly wipe the surface of these six machines, then took out a few pieces of magic crystals, put them into these six machines, and then turned on the switch to prepare for a test.

Just as the switch of the first small magic harvester was turned on, the rake in front began to turn, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps outside the house.

"President Xu, President Xu..." Manager Ram's shout came in through the doors and windows.

Xu Yi turned off the small magic harvester and walked out in wonder.

As soon as I walked out of the room, I saw Superintendent Ram leading four people over.

The four of them wore uniforms with a uniform and well-made uniform, which seemed to be from the same organization.

Sure enough, after the introduction of Superintendent Ram, Xu Yi realized that these four people were actually officials of the Agricultural Bureau. After learning that Xu Yi had arrived in Anweimar City yesterday, he came to meet Xu Yi early this morning.

The leading Agriculture Department official was a middle-aged man with a gray hair and a minimum of over fifty years old. After listening to the introduction of Superintendent Ram, he nodded slightly and said, "President Xu, what kind of farmland magic machinery do you bring? Leave it to us to take it back."

Xu Yi frowned. Lord Fisher's tone seemed calm, but both his expression and tone revealed a sense of contempt and indifference that was unconcealed, as if they had given Xu Yi a great deal of face when they came to see Xu Yi, and it seemed even more natural to let Xu Yi hand over the things over.

Xu Yi originally thought that the officials of the Agricultural Bureau had received the news the night before and came to meet him early the next morning. He must have attached great importance to the magic machinery he brought in the farmland. Now, when he saw that this was not the case at all.

"Lord Fisher, I don't seem to have said I'd hand over the things to the Agriculture Department?" Xu Yi frowned.

"Do you still want to keep it if you don't submit it?" Lord Fisher raised his voice a little, looking at Xu Yi, and seemed a little impatient. "President Xu, since you have reported that you have brought those magic machinery in the farmland, of course you have to hand it over to us and let us take it back and study it carefully. If it is really helpful for improving farmland, the Agricultural Department will definitely commend you for the New Flying Chamber of Commerce."

"Commendation?" Xu Yi was immediately excited.

This time he came with the intention of promoting the magic machinery of farmland. He originally thought that even His Majesty the King would summon him because of this, so the Agricultural Department should pay great attention to him, but he did not expect that the four Agriculture Department officials would be so indifferent and did not look at all.

Judging from their attitude, if Xu Yi really handed over these farmland magic machinery to them, he might be immediately put away and no longer concerned.

"Lord, please forgive me for asking more questions. I remember that the Agriculture Department said in my letter that this time I asked me to come here mainly to hear the complete farmland renovation plan and the farmers' support plan of our New Flying Chamber of Commerce. I didn't say that I would hand over these magic machines, right? In addition, I never said that I would bring the farmland magic machines, where did you know?" Xu Yi stared at Lord Fisher and asked.

Lord Fisher's eyes flashed a little, then he glared at Xu Yi and raised his voice and said, "President Xu, this is not something you should ask. Don't worry about it now. On behalf of the Agriculture Department, I ask you to hand over the magic machinery of farmland immediately for us to study. Don't you agree?"

Xu Yi's eyes swept over the three Agriculture Department officials next to Lord Fisher and found that they were also fierce, as if Xu Yi dared not agree, they would immediately rush up and take action.

Seeing the four of them in this posture, Xu Yi pondered.

He was not afraid, but he just felt that something seemed strange.

If the Agriculture Department does not value itself, it would never have come here so early. If it really pays attention, how could it show such an attitude?

After thinking about it, Xu Yi shook his head: "Lord, I am afraid I cannot agree to your request. I have other uses of these machines. If I hand them over to you like this, it will disrupt my plan."

Lord Fisher suddenly lowered his face and snorted coldly, "Disrupt your plan? If you don't hand over those machines to us, it will disrupt our Agriculture Department's plan! Do you think your plan is important, or is the plan of our Agriculture Department important?"

Xu Yi chuckled softly: "Lord, there seems to be no comparison, right? Maybe the plan of the Agriculture Department is important, but it does not mean that I have to hand over those machines to you."

"Random!" Lord Fisher suddenly became furious, pointed his finger at Xu Yi's nose, and shouted loudly: "Xu Yi, you are just a small businessman, who dares to resist the request of our Agricultural Bureau at will? Do you know that if it weren't for the fact that there was a little advantage in the support plan of the farmers in your chamber of commerce, you wouldn't even be qualified to talk to me?"

Xu Yi frowned, grabbed Lord Fisher and pointed at his finger and pressed it down, and said in a calm tone: "Lord, if you continue to maintain this attitude, I think our conversation will end here."

Xu Yi's calm tone immediately angered the other three Agriculture Department officials, and even more angered Lord Fisher. However, he was older and steady after all, he raised his hand to stop the three companions from rushing over. Looking at Xu Yi, he said seriously: "President Xu, are you really going to disobey the orders of the Agriculture Department?"

Xu Yi smiled and said, "Lord, first of all, our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Agricultural Department are not related to superiors and subordinates. The word order cannot be used here, right? Secondly, can you really represent the Agricultural Department?"
