Xu Yi didn't say a word until the magic car took the two of them to their destination.
President Cruise, who wanted to chat, looked at the calm expression on Xu Yi's face, but always felt that the atmosphere in the magic car was extremely strange and depressing, so he wisely stopped talking.
The magic car stopped, Xu Yi took the lead and walked out. After President Cruise got out of the car, he paused and decided to change the topic.
"Hey, Xu Yi, why do you still like to drive your own car now that you are the president of a big chamber of commerce? Why don't you learn from other big shots and hire a dedicated driver to drive for you? ? This can save a lot of effort."
Xu Yi turned his head and glanced at him, then said a word lightly.
"If there had been a driver just now, I'm afraid it wouldn't be convenient for you to say those words, right?"
Seeing Xu Yi turn around and strode towards the half-visited base ahead, President Cruise couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Why did he have to be so mean-spirited and mention that rumor in front of Xu Yi
But judging from Xu Yi's reaction, this rumor is probably... true.
So this means that Xu Yi and Her Majesty the Queen have a close relationship that far exceeds other people's imagination, and even gave birth to the crystallization of their love, that is, Prince Kane.
This also explains why the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has spared no effort to support the Lampali Kingdom, and why Her Majesty the Queen has looked at Xu Yi differently from the beginning.
All questions, if this is the answer. It all makes sense.
President Cruise rolled his eyes and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth with a smile.
If this is true. Then there is no need to worry that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce may abandon the Lampali Kingdom in the future and support other countries.
Because Prince Kane will definitely inherit the throne of the Lampali Kingdom in the future, then what reason does Xu Yi have for not supporting his son as the king of this country
And as long as there is strong support from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the prospects of the Lampali Kingdom are bright. As one of the Lampali Kingdom's chambers of commerce, the Amri Chamber of Commerce will naturally not have to worry about the support from other countries on the mainland, especially the Kandla Empire and Malo. The threat from the traditional large chambers of commerce in these two empires.
Of course, even if there is no such relationship. Based on the close cooperative relationship between the Amuli Chamber of Commerce and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, I believe that Xu Yi will not abandon himself as a partner easily.
Thinking of this, President Cruise walked up quickly. I caught up with Xu Yi and came to a huge building with a sign.
The name on the brand is "The First Production Workshop of Wimbledon Construction Engineering Materials Base", which means that this is the most important production workshop in this construction engineering materials base.
According to the cooperation agreement reached between the Amri Chamber of Commerce and the Kandela Empire, the Amri Chamber of Commerce will build all 160,000 kilometers of roads in the three-year road plan for the Kandela Empire. Then the cement, steel bars, concrete and other building materials required are naturally an astronomical number.
Although it is not impossible to move a large amount of materials from the Principality of Standing and the Kingdom of Lampali, which are thousands of kilometers away. But the cost will undoubtedly increase significantly.
Therefore, the Candela Empire negotiated with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and decided to build a production base for various materials required for road projects outside Wimbledon, specifically to provide various materials for this huge highway plan.
This production base is not directly under the name of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Instead, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce provides technical support and initial guidance, and the Candela Empire is mainly responsible for processing and production.
Originally, according to the agreement signed between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Candela Empire, this production base was supposed to be owned by the Candela Empire with 60% of the shares and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce with the remaining 40%. However, the Amri Chamber of Commerce stated that they were the main users of these building materials. business. In order to ensure the quality of road projects, you must be personally involved. Ensure the quality of building materials is reliable.
Although the Candela Empire was very dissatisfied with the reasons given by the Amri Chamber of Commerce, in view of the situation, it finally agreed to the Amri Chamber of Commerce's request, so the shares of the production base were finally redivided, with the Candela Empire occupying 50% of the shares, and the new The Flying Chamber of Commerce accounts for 30%, and the Amri Chamber of Commerce accounts for the remaining 20%.
Today is the first production workshop of this production base, and it is also the day when the workshop mainly responsible for cement production is officially completed and put into production. President Xu Yi and Chairman Cruz came here to inspect and observe as representatives of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Candela Empire respectively. Naturally, the Candela Empire also sent out important figures of corresponding specifications to be responsible for the reception.
Seeing the two people walking towards this side, Count Raphael Erwin, Minister of the Magic Industry Management Department of the Candela Empire, and Thatcher Mar, Speaker of the Management Council of the Candela Empire Infrastructure Promotion and Operation Committee, who had been waiting in front of the production workshop, Count Duf immediately came forward with a group of subordinates from their respective departments.
"President Xu, President Cruise, welcome." Count Erwin smiled and stretched out his hands to Xu Yi.
Xu Yi and President Cruise shook hands with the two of them respectively, and then gave a general introduction to the subordinates they brought with them, and a group of people walked into the workshop.
As soon as he entered the workshop, he heard a rumbling sound coming towards him.
Looking up, a row of brand-new large-scale machinery is lined up to form a cement production line that is nearly 100 meters long.
The farthest away is the magic crusher responsible for crushing and grinding, which is turning on its power.
As soon as the large amount of powder dust ejected from the separation box was dispersed, it seemed to be gathered together by an invisible force, and then accumulated into a corner through a pipe.
In this way, the most criticized dust pollution in the cement production process on earth is reduced to a minimum hazard.
At the same time, there are some ordinary-looking coniferous plants placed around the workshop. Even if there is scattered dust in the entire production line, it will still be filtered by these dust-absorbing plants specially selected and cultivated by the elves, making the entire workshop The inside is kept very fresh and clean. You can't tell that this is a cement production workshop at all.
"Hey, President Xu, I forgot to tell you. Are these plants made by the elves? Let them sell some to our Chamber of Commerce. Recently, many workers in our Chamber of Commerce have been injured because of the excessive dust on the construction site. Therefore, coughing all day long affects work efficiency," President Cruz suddenly pointed at the plants on both sides of the workshop.
"I have told you many times before that we should pay attention to the health of workers, and I have set a corresponding standard for you. Haven't you noticed?" Xu Yi frowned and glanced at him.
President Cruz laughed dryly and looked away: "The workers find it troublesome. Not many people are willing to comply with them all..."
Xu Yi snorted softly and said to himself, I'm afraid it's not only the workers of the Amri Chamber of Commerce who don't pay attention, but the Amri Chamber of Commerce itself will not take these standard regulations that focus on protecting the health of workers to heart.
After all. In terms of social composition, Sainz Continent is still a form between slave society and feudal society. It has no so-called human rights awareness at all, let alone realizes the benefits brought by this awareness.
In the eyes of chamber of commerce presidents like President Cruz, workers are considered dead. He won't feel anything either.
And even the worker who died. At most, you will only consider yourself unlucky, and it is impossible to have similar situations like asking for compensation from the Chamber of Commerce on Earth...
Thinking of this, Xu Yi turned to look at Earl Erwin and Earl Malduff, and said seriously: "My lords, the development of the magic industry has a very high demand for skilled workers. So I hope you can pay more attention to them." The chambers of commerce related to the magic industry in the empire will publicize the precautions in this regard and pay attention to protecting the health and safety of workers. "
Earl Erwin and Earl Marduff smiled and nodded, but the expressions on their faces clearly revealed their indifference.
Xu Yi secretly shook his head. I know in my heart that telling them these truths now is like playing the piano to a cow, and it is not something they have experienced the pain themselves. Don't understand at all.
President Cruise hit a big nail in Xu Yi's place. He shook his head and turned to look at the finished cement sealing port at the end of the production line. He grabbed a handful of cement powder from inside and rubbed it with his hands first. Rub it, put it to your nose and smell it, then look around, walk to a bucket in the corner of the workshop, and scoop some water into your hand.
Seeing his actions, Xu Yi couldn't help but stare. He went over and slapped the cement that had been mixed with water on his hand, and scolded: "You don't want your hand anymore?"
President Cruz was startled, then smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, I do this all the time, it's just that it's a little more troublesome to wash my hands later."
Xu Yi couldn't help but roll his eyes, thinking that the safety awareness of these guys was really weak.
As for the safety standards and regulations that come with the various magical machines that they sell, most of these guys probably don't even look at them.
"Don't do this in the future." Xu Yi stopped President Cruise again, looked down at the cement that had been mixed on the ground, and asked President Cruise: "How is it? How is the quality?"
President Cruz nodded with satisfaction: "Very good! The quality of this cement is no worse than that of your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, well... To be precise, it is even much better than the cement produced by your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the first few years. ”
After saying that, he turned his head and raised his hands to Earl Erwin and Earl Malduff, making a gesture of praise.
Count Erwin and Count Malduff immediately burst into laughter.
"President Cruz, please rest assured that His Majesty the Emperor attaches great importance to the three-year road paving plan, and this material production base is the most important facility. Of course we will pay great attention to ensure the quality of all types of materials."
"Well, very good. If all the materials here can ensure the same high quality in the future, and of course the most important thing is to ensure the output, then our Chamber of Commerce will be extremely efficient when laying roads, and we will definitely be able to easily complete this within three years. Plan." President Cruz smiled.
Earl Erwin smiled, suddenly took two steps closer to Xu Yi, pointed to the roaring production line in the workshop and said: "President Xu, look, this cement production workshop has officially started, everything is going well. Next is the production base Other workshops and factories will also start operations one after another. But... this base alone may not be enough to meet all the needs within the empire... "
Xu Yi glanced at him with a half-smile: "Your Majesty, what do you want to say?"
"Ahem... President Xu, all the equipment in this production base is shipped all the way from your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Don't you think it's inconvenient?"
Xu Yi showed a meaningful smile: "What does the earl mean... do you want to produce these magic machine tools yourself?"
Earl Erwin laughed: "If President Xu is willing to transfer this technology, of course we will be grateful."
Xu Yi looked at him with a smile, thinking that what he expected was indeed good.
As one of the two major empires in Sainz Continent, the Candela Empire is indeed unwilling to accept other people's arrangements honestly like some small countries.
It's just that they think too highly of themselves if they want to abandon themselves so quickly and go it alone... (To be continued...)
