Freya thought quietly for a while, sighed softly, and shook her head.
"This is impossible. Don't say that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is just a chamber of commerce now. Even if Dad, you are now a big empire that rules the entire continent, it is impossible for everyone to be honest and not have too many thoughts. Come."
"So, there is no need to insist on things that are meaningless. I have forced this continent to develop stably for ten years, and through these ten years, I have basically achieved my goal and made people's lives on this continent appear better. Great improvement.”
Freya nodded slowly, looking at Xu Yi with admiration in her eyes.
If there is one person that ordinary civilians should be grateful to the most in Sainz Continent now, it will definitely not be any leader of their country, but it should be Xu Yi.
Because of the new farmland farming model led by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the farmland food production on the Sainz Continent has made a leap, so that most countries in the Sainz Continent no longer need to suffer from famine as before.
In the past ten years alone, the population of Sainz Continent has grown exponentially, and the reason for this is simply because there is enough food to eat.
At the same time, because of the new magic industry system brought by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, countless people can find suitable jobs, earn a good salary, and then use this salary to further improve their lives.
And because of the various household magic machines developed by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, people's previously monotonous and meager lives have become more and more colorful.
People no longer have to run around desperately for survival every day as before. They no longer have to be busy in the fields every day, with their faces facing the loess and their backs to the sky. Instead, they can enjoy a variety of colorful entertainment programs in their free time.
The New Flying Chamber of Commerce also brought roads and magic motorcycles, which changed the traffic conditions on this continent drastically, allowing people to easily travel to distant places hundreds or even thousands of kilometers away, unlike before where they could only stay for a lifetime. In his hometown.
There is also a magic communication network that allows people to communicate instantly with people over long distances.
There is also a magic airship, which realizes the dream of ordinary people to fly into the sky.
besides…
…
Anyway. Compared to 20 or 30 years ago, Sainz Continent is almost completely different now.
It only took a few decades for the people on the Sainz continent to enjoy a life that was unimaginable before.
The person who caused all these changes was Xu Yi, who was standing in front of Freya at this time.
Every time I think about this. Freya was always filled with pride.
She has always firmly believed in her heart that her father is the greatest man in the world.
As for the two great emperors of the two empires who are known as "great emperors respected and worshiped by millions of people", in Freya's opinion, they are not worthy of carrying Xu Yi's shoes.
"Dad, are you planning to take a rest?" Freya thought for a while and asked.
"No. I don't plan to rest. I'm still young." Xu Yi smiled and shook his head. "I just... feel that I have done enough for the people on this continent, so in the future I plan to be selfish and put more energy into the dream I have always had."
"Your dream?" Freya rolled her eyes and pointed to the sky with excitement. "Is that what you always said, flying into the universe?"
"Yes. How about it, Freya, are you interested too?"
"Of course!" Freya nodded without hesitation. "You have told me since I was a child that beyond the sky, there is a broader universe that is countless times wider than this world. Your dream is to explore the universe. And my dream is to explore with you!"
"You... it's better not to be anxious." Xu Yi shook his head. "You are still young, and this world is enough for you to explore for a long time."
"Hmph, you really still want me to stay and take over the Chamber of Commerce." Freya snorted dissatisfied.
Xu Yi laughed dumbly: "I didn't say that you are overthinking it. I just want to tell you that you haven't explored enough of this world until now, so there is no need to rush to explore the universe. For example Say...Have you been to Moyun Continent?"
"It's you who never let me go, okay?" Freya rolled her eyes at Xu Yi angrily, but her eyes widened immediately. Looking excited. "Do you mean... to approve my going to Moyun Continent?"
"There is no such plan in the near future." Xu Yi shook his head, and then faced Freya's disappointed gaze and added: "But before you turn 25, I will take the time to take you to the Magic Cloud Continent to see more. Also. I will take you to several other continents. Even... I will take you to the northernmost and southernmost points of the world to let you see the most beautiful glaciers and experience the most extreme cold climate. How about it? ?"
Freya chuckled: "I'm afraid of being a puppy!"
After chatting with Xu Yi for a while, Freya still did not forget the original question and asked: "Dad, you still haven't explained it clearly. It's okay that you want to work harder for your dream. But this has nothing to do with you. It doesn’t seem to matter how the time is done, right?”
"I have just said that I don't want to continue to insist on meaningless things. I have laid the foundation for the people of this continent. The next thing is their own choice. I will not forcefully interfere again."
"In other words, you plan to quit? What about the Chamber of Commerce?" Freya asked again.
"I didn't say I don't care about the Chamber of Commerce at all. Don't worry, with the current status of our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce on the mainland, unless we keep making the wrong choices, we will always be one of the top chambers of commerce on the continent. one."
Freya looked at Xu Yi doubtfully, thinking, isn't this decision to completely withdraw from the Magic Kingdom of Mana the worst choice
"Actually, this is also to prove once again to the people on the mainland how important the magic industry is to us." A dangerous smile flashed across Xu Yi's face. "Those who still want to resist and run counter to this era will only receive the most severe punishment."

If we look at it from the surface, the impact of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's complete withdrawal on the Magic Kingdom of Mana, apart from a significant drop in reputation, is not that serious in fact.
Although the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce withdrew, it still left a basically complete magic industry system to the Magic Kingdom of Mana, allowing them to ensure self-sufficiency in most industries.
And even if the place is completely inseparable from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, after the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce withdrew, a large number of chambers of commerce from other countries swarmed in and took the opportunity to seize the vacated market.
Because of the fierce competition, Mana Magic Kingdom had both sides and took advantage of it.
This phenomenon was deliberately publicized by some people with ulterior motives inside and outside the Magic Kingdom of Mana, making the withdrawal of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce appear to be insignificant.
For a time, there was even a wave of propaganda within the Mana Magic Kingdom to promote the victory of the resistance, saying that boycotting the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was a very correct choice, and gained the most important autonomy for the country's precious resources for the Mana Magic Kingdom, making it Not to fall into the clutches of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
This theory seems reasonable at first glance and has been supported by many people.
However, not long after, the Magic Kingdom of Mana suffered a blow.
In early February of the continental calendar 3815, the Magic Kingdom of Mana and the neighboring Kingdom of Ensflan clashed over a magic crystal mine on the border.
At first this was limited to a skirmish on the border, resulting in some casualties.
But then the conflict continued to escalate due to various reasons, and eventually evolved into a direct confrontation between the border guards of the two countries.
The result of the battle was that everyone suffered some damage, but it was not too serious.
Because usually when this situation occurs, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will always issue a warning, hoping that the warring parties will stop and negotiate.
However, this time, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce said nothing about it, as if this incident had never happened.
People were surprised and then woke up. When Xinfei Chamber of Commerce announced its complete withdrawal from Mana Magic Kingdom, it stated that it would never have anything to do with Mana Magic Kingdom again.
So of course the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will not pay attention to this border conflict involving the Magic Kingdom of Mana.
After half a month of peace, the border guards of the Kingdom of Ensflan suddenly launched a massive raid on the border of the Magic Kingdom of Mana.
Although the Magic Kingdom of Mana responded quickly and immediately organized a counterattack, after the two sides fought on the border for more than three months, the Magic Kingdom of Mana began to retreat.
This result surprised many people.
Because from a general point of view, the national power of the Magic Kingdom of Mana should obviously be much stronger than that of the Kingdom of Ensflan.
The Kingdom of Ensflan may be able to take advantage locally, but if the war continues for a long time, it will obviously be no match for the Magic Kingdom of Mana.
But the fact is that the Magic Kingdom of Mana gradually became unable to withstand it, and finally made its first retreat four months after the two sides fought, giving up the magic crystal mine that the two parties fought for to the Kingdom of Ensflan.
The Kingdom of Ensflan did not take the opportunity to expand the results of the war, but chose to enter into peace talks with the Magic Kingdom of Mana. In the end, after the Magic Kingdom of Mana paid a certain amount of compensation to the Kingdom of Ensflan, the two sides declared a truce.
This short war triggered a lot of discussion on Sainz continent.
People are wondering why the Magic Kingdom of Mana cannot defeat the Kingdom of Ensflan in a stalemate war.
After all, except for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, other countries on the mainland have similar military magic machines, so there shouldn't be much difference in the combat effectiveness of their armies.
Later, after careful study and analysis, a unified conclusion was gradually drawn. (~^~)
