In the Lampali Kingdom, which is located in the southwest of the central part of Sainz Continent, spring comes earlier than most countries on Sainz Continent.
Entering mid-March, the south wind blows, and the snow on the ground has been blown away early. Even a few buds are scattered here and there in the fresh soil, adding a few touching emerald greens to the barren and monotonous ground. .
Xu Yi glanced at the dazzling greenery outside the office window. After a moment of daze, his eyes turned to the map of the kingdom hanging on the wall.
To the west of Bangta City, in addition to the group of red that represents the current location of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce factory, a large group of lighter red is painted further to the west, indicating that this area is about to be Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will be included in his name.
Of course, Sevigny doesn't only bring bad news. For example, after the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce spent two months to complete the first batch of orders for farmland magic machinery, Sevigny immediately brought good news to Xu Yi. , that is, after careful consideration, His Majesty the King agreed to Xu Yi's request to rent royal land.
And beyond Xu Yi's expectation, His Majesty the King was even more generous than Xu Yi had imagined.
Xu Yi only tentatively wanted to rent one square kilometer of land, and His Majesty the King actually increased it tenfold in one breath! Agree to lease a large area of ten square kilometers of land to Xinfei Chamber of Commerce!
Moreover, the rent requested by His Majesty the King is much cheaper than Xu Yi imagined.
At first, Xu Yi planned to rent one square kilometer of land and planned to pay a rent of at least five thousand gold coins per year. However, after His Majesty the King agreed to lease the ten square kilometers of land, the rent requirement was only a mere three thousand gold coins per year. Just ten thousand gold coins!
If converted according to purchasing power, thirty thousand gold coins per year can be roughly equivalent to three million soft girl coins.
If any company in the celestial dynasty on earth knew that it could lease ten square kilometers of land for only three million soft sister coins every year, they would definitely faint with joy.
Of course, the cheap rent proves that the location must not be too good.
Although His Majesty the King asked Xu Yi to choose such a piece of land near Bangta City, he required it to be at least ten kilometers away from Bangta City.
It is said that such an area is too far away from Bangta City. It can already be considered very bad.
But contrary to the expectations of His Majesty the King and Sevini, Xu Xu actually chose an extremely desolate area fifty kilometers away from the western suburbs of Bangta City.
Sevini even thought that Xu Yi must be crazy.
Although this place looks from the map, it is right in the middle of Bangta City, Saltan City and Kalma City, and it is about the same distance from the three cities. But it is more than fifty kilometers away from the nearest city of Bangta.
With such a long distance, even if the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce builds a factory here to produce a large number of magic machines, it will undoubtedly cost a lot more to transport these magic machines to the city.
Thinking of the way Sevini persuaded him at that time, Xu Yi couldn't help but laugh.
Although Sevini was really considering the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, she didn't know Xu Yi's overall plan, so she could only be worried in vain.
Xu Yi stood up and walked to the map. He first glanced at the large piece of land marked in light red, and then moved his eyes slightly to the upper left of the land. Finally, we stopped at the intersection of a forest, rivers and mountains.
That forest is the Forest of Falling Rain.
Those two mountains and rivers are the Hengduan Mountains where several dwarf tribes such as the Noma tribe and the Angora tribe live.
That river, of course, originally passed through the Forest of Falling Rain, but now it is silted up due to sedimentation. The diverted Sandy River.
The focus of Xu Yi's eyes was on the new tribal settlement selected by Chief Shilui and Chief Mento after discussing with Xu Yi.
Now in this place, the Armli Chamber of Commerce has sent a large number of people and is working hard to build one house after another.
After two months of construction, this new tribe with an area of more than 10,000 square meters and thousands of dwarf-style houses has begun to take shape.
Once completed, according to the estimates of the two dwarf patriarchs. It can even accommodate more than three thousand dwarves living at the same time.
Not only can all the dwarves of the Noma tribe and the Angola tribe move in, but more than half of the houses can also be vacated for the dwarves of other dwarf tribes.
If you move your eyes along the Sandy River, which is still dry, to the upper left of the map, you will see the Falling Rain Forest where the Nightsong tribe is hiding.
In the past two months, the elves have not been idle.
While conducting various aspects of research on the resin in accordance with Xu Yi's requirements, the elves and several human water conservancy experts sent by Xu Yi also conducted an on-site inspection of the upper reaches of the Sandy River.
After a month-long investigation, a complete governance plan was finally determined.
And responsible for this water conservancy project. Still the Armley Chamber of Commerce.
The Armley Chamber of Commerce, which has gradually mastered the various uses of cement, can be regarded as the only chamber of commerce in Sainz Continent that can use reinforced concrete to build a super strong embankment on the Sandy River in accordance with Xu Yi's requirements.
Although the Sandy River is not particularly large, the construction period of this project is still initially set at two years or even more.
Xu Yi has nothing to do about this. After all, there are not as many large-scale construction machinery on the continent of Sainz as there are on the earth. The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce currently does not have mature enough magic machinery technology to manufacture these corresponding engineering machinery.
However, as this project progresses, Xu also asks the Chamber of Commerce Research Department to conduct research on related magic engineering machinery based on the progress of the project. Maybe one or two can be developed by then.
For example, the technical content of the magic concrete mixer is not very high. It has been developed and delivered to the Armley Chamber of Commerce for use. And because of its good effect, President Kuris placed an order for 100 units.
Elder Elusia didn't feel that the construction period was very long when she collapsed.
For elves who live for hundreds of years, two years just flies by in a blink of an eye and is nothing at all.
Moreover, the Yege tribe currently has abundant groundwater to use, and is not as urgent as before to transform the river channel.
Looking around on the map, Xu Yi stretched out a finger and pointed at Bangta City on the map, and then dragged his finger to draw a straight line starting from Bangta City and passing through the factory of Xinzai Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. , and then looked all the way to the leased land, and then to the new dwarf tribe. Finally, pour into the Forest of Falling Rain.
"At the very least, we need to build a real highway to connect these places." Xu Yi murmured to himself, and then dragged his fingers to extend two other branch lines from the leased land to connect to Sal. Tancheng and Kalma. "On top of that, two more roads are needed."
According to Xu Yi's plan. This large piece of leased land will become the most important large-scale production base of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the future, and will undertake most of the magic machinery production tasks of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
For a production base, transportation convenience is obviously the primary consideration, so the first thing Xu Yi thought of was to build a few qualified roads, instead of just using gravel and soil to roll over things like the current Sainz Continent. Out of the ordinary roads.
Of course, this plan cannot be completed in a short while, and it can only exist in Xu Yi's mind at the moment.
For now, the production base of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is still the factory where Xu Yi is now.
"Okay. And the factory outside Kalma City." Seeing Heinze pushing through the door, Xu Yi'an added in his mind. Then he smiled at Heinze and asked, "Hey, Heinze, are you ready to go?"
Heinze's mature and steady face actually showed a nervous look, and he walked around the office twice. Asked Xu Yi: "Xu Yi, are you really not going to go with me?"
Xu Yi smiled and said: "Why should I go? Didn't I already agree that you will be solely responsible for Kalma City and I will not interfere. Besides, I have already been there once during the groundbreaking ceremony the day before yesterday. Now I will If you go, I'm afraid it will cause misunderstandings for your management there. "
"I know you are right, but..." Heinze smiled bitterly. "Xu Yi, I have never managed such a big place by myself. I am really... a little nervous."
Xu Yi burst into laughter: "Didn't you say very proudly some time ago that you would work hard to share my responsibilities and arrest the factory in Kalma by yourself? Now you come to me and tell me that you are nervous? Okay. No one is angry. You will know when you come down. You see, I had no experience in managing a chamber of commerce before. Isn’t the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce developing well now?”
"That's different. You... you have talent, but I don't..."
"What is talent or not? Management of this kind of thing is not the same. If you can manage hundreds of people in a workshop, then you can definitely manage the entire factory in Kalmar City." Xu Yi patted him. Heinze said over his shoulder: "Okay, let's go quickly. Today is the official start of work. If you, the factory director, arrive late, you will really lose points."
"Then... shall I set off?" Heinze asked with some uncertainty.
Xu Yi smiled and shook his head, pushed him hard on the back, pushed him out of the office, and then pushed him into the carriage that had been prepared.
Seeing the carriage that Heinze was riding in disappearing into the distance, Xu Yi shook his head and was about to go to the magic machine tool workshop, but suddenly he saw another carriage coming from a distance, and it stopped directly in front of Xu Yi.
As soon as the carriage stopped, a familiar figure jumped down from the carriage and flew directly into Xu Yi's arms with the fragrant wind.
Feeling two warm lips touching his face, Xu Yi said in surprise: "Steele, why are you here?"
Different from the shyness when the two first established their relationship, Steele, who has now adapted to their relationship, has returned to her sunny, enthusiastic and cheerful personality. Even in front of others, she will not hide it at all and has a bold style. Xu Yi blushed sometimes.
However, Xu Yi's character is slightly passive in this regard, but he actually enjoys Steele's approach more.
"I'm bringing a special guest here, you see." Steele smiled and pointed to the carriage.
"Special guest?" Xu Yi looked at the carriage and saw a middle-aged magician wearing a magician's robe but exuding a shrewd aura of a businessman jumping out.
Seeing Xu Yi looking over, the middle-aged magician smiled slightly and said: "Hello, President Xu, please introduce yourself. I am Gordon Esenka."
