The meeting was not officially held, so of course what was said before was just some idle chatter that didn't mean much.
Xu Yi didn't have much time to chat here. He came to Mana Magic Kingdom this time not just to attend this meeting, but also had other important matters.
So after sitting for a while and chatting with other magicians attending the meeting, Xu Yi said goodbye and left.
Leaving with him was a senior magician sent by the Magic Kingdom of Mana to organize the meeting.
He is both a senior member of the Wizards Guild of the Magic Kingdom of Mana and a senior official of the Magic Kingdom of Mana.
This kind of thing where a magician plays two roles at the same time does not happen in other countries on the mainland, but it is very common in the Magic Kingdom of Mana.
In addition to organizing this high-profile and important meeting, his most important task is to receive distinguished guests.
But Xu Yi, who could almost be called the most important guest, was designated by the King of the Magic Kingdom of Mana to receive a special reception.
Xu Yilai had already contacted Mana Magic Kingdom in advance, so there was no need for any delay between the two parties.
After leaving the manor, the two of them got into a magic car that had been prepared long ago and was specially used to receive VIPs, and drove quickly towards the south of Sosri City.
"President Xu, the address of the new factory has been selected and the foundation has been basically completed. It is next to the Maya River in the south of the city. There is also a re-widened national highway next to it. After the finished products are produced in the future, it will be very convenient to transport them by water or land. ”
Sitting in the car, the magician Van Horn who was responsible for the reception introduced Xu Yi to the destination of their trip.
"I have no doubts about your ability to do things. But... I wonder if His Majesty the King has thought clearly about the future plans of this factory?"
"This..." Van Horn smiled hesitantly and replied: "His Majesty the King and the adults in the parliament have been working hard to negotiate these days, and they are just waiting for President Xu's arrival before making the final decision."
"Yeah?"
Xu Yi asked back lightly, feeling a little disappointed.
The heavy-duty magic machinery production base jointly established by Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and Mana Magic Kingdom has been in contact as early as last year. It was finally finalized in the first half of this year. Unexpectedly, more than half a year has passed. It only built the foundation of a factory. There is not even an answer as to whether the entire base has been established, which is really extremely inefficient.
The fact that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce agreed to cooperate with the Magic Kingdom of Mana this time and transfer a large amount of technology related to heavy magic machinery was already a sign of Xu Yi's extreme generosity. However, the Magic Kingdom of Mana failed to seize this opportunity and instead delayed it again and again. How could Xu Yi not be disappointed
Of course, Van Horn could see Xu Yi's face, and he quickly smiled and said: "Actually, His Majesty the King and the adults in the parliament have basically reached a common view. Now I just hope to have another negotiation with you, President Xu. Please approve. Don’t worry, President. Since planning for this base has begun, there is no reason for the Kingdom to give up halfway.”
Xu Yi nodded slightly, noncommittal.
In recent years, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has had countless cooperation projects with major countries on the mainland. For most of these projects, the corresponding countries are very active in it, but some are not so active.
There are many reasons, and Xu Yi naturally won't pay attention to them one by one.
After all, there are many countries, chambers of commerce, and organizations begging for cooperation from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and there are no shortage of just one or two. If he cared so much about them all, he would have been exhausted long ago.
However, the collaboration project at Mana Magic Kingdom is different this time. This is a very rare project that Xu Yi personally proposed and took charge of in recent years. Xinfei Chamber of Commerce attaches great importance to it.
Even if the scale of the project itself is not particularly large, it is extremely rare at this level.
However, the Magic Kingdom of Mana kept pushing and procrastinating and showed no signs of active cooperation at all, which made Xu Yi a little unhappy.
The reason why he attaches so much importance to this project is actually to attach importance to the Magic Kingdom of Mana.
This country, which is named after magic, has become the third largest country after the two empires because of the large number of magicians in the country.
And Xu is also trying to change the view and use of magic on the entire Sainz continent, and the Magic Kingdom of Mana is naturally a very important part. Therefore, he has always hoped to cooperate well with the Magic Kingdom of Mana and fully integrate it into the magic industry.
It's just that the "Magician Peace Convention" initiated by Xu Yi previously restricted the ability of magicians to join the army and then participate in wars. Therefore, the Magic Kingdom of Mana, which mainly relied on magicians to form its combat power, suffered the most serious losses.
If the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce had not been able to suppress the situation on the mainland, I am afraid that the Mana Magic Kingdom would have suffered a major decline in national power because of this.
Therefore, the perception of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Mana Magic Kingdom has always been complicated. Although they want to strengthen the national power through cooperation with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, many magicians in the Mana Magic Kingdom have also lost their minds due to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. resentment. Unwilling to cooperate.
The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has been successful in promoting the magic industry in other countries, but it often encounters obstacles in the Magic Kingdom of Mana. Even the project currently under the leadership of Xu Yi is difficult to advance smoothly.
"I plan to meet with His Majesty the King in the next two days. Please tell me." Xu Yi thought for a while and explained to Van Horn.
Van Horn nodded immediately: "His Majesty the King has long wished to meet you, President Xu. He must be very happy to know that you have arrived."
Xu Yi hummed and stopped asking questions.
The magic car carried the two of them quickly on the flat road. In less than half an hour, they had arrived at the base that Van Horn said.
However, after getting out of the car, Xu Yi raised his eyes and immediately couldn't help but frown deeply.
The base in front of Van Horn's mouth, now glanced at it, is simply a desolate primitive river beach!
Except that you can see a few piles of sand and gravel piled up by the river in the distance, and some people seem to be busy nearby, this place can even be called deserted. Where can the base under construction come from
"Is this the base you have been preparing for half a year?" Xu Yi's voice turned cold as he looked at the scene in front of him.
Of course, Van Horn knew that the scene in front of him would not satisfy Xu Yi. He wiped his sweat, pointed at the piles of sand and gravel in the distance, and argued: "The foundation for the planned first magic machine tool workshop has been laid. As long as Act quickly and it will be built early next year.”
"As long as you move quickly?" Xu Yi couldn't help but sneer.
In external evaluations, Amri Chamber of Commerce always gets the evaluation of "fast project progress and good quality", but that is based on the Amri Chamber of Commerce's large number of manpower and corresponding various types of engineering magic machinery.
In the so-called base in front of us, except for a few figures, there was not even a shadow of a magic engineering machine, so how could it be possible to get up fast
What makes Xu Yi even more dissatisfied and even a little angry is that even if Mana Magic Kingdom is not that serious about this project, now that he knows that he has come to inspect it in person, he will usually do it for the sake of face. When he came, he looked like he was in full swing and was working hard to build things, right
But now Mana Magic Kingdom is unwilling to even pretend to save face. That means either they have no idea at all, or the disputes within Mana Magic Kingdom about this matter are so fierce that no one is doing it. This is superficial.
Thinking of this, Xu Yi snorted coldly, glanced at Van Horn, and said in a deep voice: "If your Mana Magic Kingdom is really not interested in this project, you can say so. Our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is not just asking people to do things everywhere. Small Chamber of Commerce, as long as you make it clear, I guarantee that we will never interfere in the future. "
Hearing that Xu Yi was really angry, Fan Horn broke out in cold sweat on his forehead. He quickly smiled and said: "President Xu, don't misunderstand me, don't misunderstand me! Of course our kingdom is willing to cooperate closely with your chamber of commerce, but there are some problems within the kingdom." ... Ahem... It's just some obstacles. Now that President Xu is here in person, I believe these small obstacles are not a problem at all and can be easily solved, what do you think?"
"I hope so."
Xu Yi waved his hand with a cold expression.
Since this so-called base has nothing to see at all, Xu Yi is too lazy to stay here.
He glanced at the construction site where workers were still working slowly, shook his head, turned around and walked towards the magic car.
After taking two steps, he suddenly heard a noise from behind.
Turning around in shock, I saw a group of people coming from nowhere, rushing into the construction site, and yelling at the workers who were still working.
Xu Yi was suddenly stunned.
"What's going on?"
Fan Horn glanced at Xu Yi cautiously, and responded with a forced smile: "It seems that someone is making trouble..."
"Nonsense, I can see it." Xu Yi glared at him, observed from a distance for a while, and found something strange.
Among those who rushed in to attack the workers, there were actually several magicians!
This made him very strange.
Although the status of magicians has declined slightly over the years and is no longer as high as before, compared to ordinary people, magicians are still respected and their status is still much higher than ordinary people.
It stands to reason that ordinary magicians would not participate in such things as directly beating and scolding workers, as this would lose their identity.
Xu Yi squinted his eyes for a while, and Fan Horn, who was next to him, also remained silent, as if he planned to sit back and watch this happen.
Seeing Xu Yi turn his head, Fan Horn knew what he meant and shook his head with a wry smile.
"Things here are not under my control. It is not convenient for me to interfere. Please forgive me, President Xu."
Of course Xu Yi didn't believe it.
Since he was the one responsible for bringing him here to watch this farce, how could he not have the right to interfere in the affairs here.
To put it this way, it’s just a matter of sitting back and watching.
Xu Yi looked at the group of people making trouble in the distance again and frowned.
What on earth is the Magic Kingdom of Mana thinking? Does it do them any good to put on such a posture that they almost want to drive them away? (~^~)
