"Thirty percent?" Elder Elusia's expression changed, and after thinking for a moment, she asked, "President Xu, can I ask how serious the loss this will cause to your Chamber of Commerce?"
"According to the previously signed contract, our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce delayed the production of a small part of the magic fans, resulting in a batch of orders not being completed within the deadline. Therefore, we paid the other party a liquidated damages of three thousand gold coins." Xu Yi replied.
Elder Elusia showed a sincere apology on his face: "I'm sorry, President Xu, I will find a way to make up for the losses caused to your Chamber of Commerce."
Xu Yi stared at Elder Elusia for a while, slowly shook his head, and sighed: "Elder Elusia, in fact, the loss of three thousand gold coins is nothing to our Chamber of Commerce. In comparison, it is Your tribe has suffered greater losses."
Elder Elusia looked at Xu Yi in surprise: "Why do you say that?"
"First, this time because the products delivered by your Yege tribe are defective, then according to the contract, the losses caused by these defective products should be borne by your Yege tribe. According to the popular rules of our human merchants According to the rules, you should also pay our New Flying Chamber of Commerce enough gold coins for this."
Elder Elusia nodded simply and said: "This is what it should be, but our tribe currently does not have enough gold coins to repay..."
"We'll talk about this later." Xu Yi waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Second, this time our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce entrusted your Yege tribe to help our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce complete the production of 20,000 magic fan plastic casings. However, what you delivered However, the defective rate of the products is as high as 30%. According to the rules among humans, our Chamber of Commerce will have serious doubts about the capabilities of your Yege tribe. Even if there are similar orders in the future, we will basically not consider it. I’ll ask you, the Yege tribe, to finish it.”
Elder Elushia was silent for a while. Then he said with some difficulty: "I understand, this is a credibility issue."
It was undoubtedly a very difficult decision for an elven tribe to admit that their tribe had credibility problems in front of humans who they had previously agreed had no credibility at all, but Elder Elushia still admitted it very honestly.
Xu Yi couldn't help but feel a little admiration for Elder Elusia in her heart. If she hadn't been seeking a way out for the Yege tribe and even the entire elves, she would never have let go of her arrogance and be honest about the elves' shortcomings like she is now.
"The last point is the most critical point. From this production of plastic casings, I discovered a big problem for your Yege tribe, or the Elf tribe, that is..." At this point, Xu Yi He stopped and hesitated for a long time, but did not say anything.
Elder Elusia smiled slightly: "Please don't hesitate and just say it directly."
Xu Yi glanced at her, paused, and then nodded: "Okay, then I will just say it. The problem is. The character of the elves seems to be generally very casual. Or to use a more direct word, it is very casual. … There’s no discipline.”
After finishing speaking. Xu Yi looked at Elder Elusia nervously.
He wasn't sure how the other party would react to hearing such unkind criticism of their entire species.
However, Elder Elushia's reaction was beyond his expectation.
After hearing this comment, Elder Elusia was stunned for a moment, and then fell into deep thought for a long time.
This deep thought lasted for more than half an hour, until Xu Yi's legs became numb. Elder Elusia seemed to suddenly wake up, and smiled apologetically at Xu Yi: "I'm sorry, I suddenly thought about things that happened a long time ago, and I got a little distracted."
"A long time ago?" Xu Yi secretly sighed.
According to Elder Elcia's age, the long time ago he mentioned might be hundreds of years ago.
That was really a long time ago...
"President Xu, I thought carefully about your comment just now, and suddenly realized that in fact, in the language of our elves, the word discipline has never been found. This word appeared later, and I learned it from you humans. . But... we elves have never understood the meaning of this word." Elder Elusia said with a serious expression.
Xu Yi was a little confused: "Don't understand the meaning of this word? What does it mean?"
"That is to say..." A bitter smile appeared on Elder Elusia's face. "We, the elves, have no discipline from the beginning."
Xu Yi was stunned for a moment.
Among the rumors about the elves on the Sainz continent, the most common adjectives are beautiful, elegant, mysterious, powerful, arrogant... but no one has ever associated the word discipline with the elves.
As for the reason why humans were able to seize the dominance of this continent from the elves thousands of years ago, later humans concluded that it was time for this continent to change its masters, and humans came into being, relying on their unique creations. With his strength and super learning ability, he finally took control of the entire continent.
But little is said about the failure of the elves.
Now hearing Elder Elusia's words, Xu Yi seemed to have suddenly caught something.
However, Elder Elusia did not give Xu Yi more time to think. She suddenly stood up and said to Xu Yi: "President Xu, please follow me. Let's go see how the tribesmen are making these plastic shells. , and how come the defective product rate exceeds 30%.”
Looking at Elder Elusia's back walking towards the door, Xu Yi suddenly and inexplicably felt a bit of coldness from her body that he had never felt before.
Leaving the Yege tribe's settlement surrounded by several big trees, and walking about less than a hundred meters away, a large open space the size of a standard football field appeared in the Forest of Falling Rain.
In this open space, there are more than a hundred elves busy at this time.
Looking from the left, you will see strong male elves running out of the jungle from time to time, holding a large glass bottle in their hands, coming to the left side of the open space, and pouring it into a huge porcelain jar.
The heat was rising in the large porcelain vat, and the resinous rosin was constantly rising out.
As the temperature gradually increases, the green light representing the magic array in the lower part of the large porcelain jar keeps flashing, and the impurities inside the resin are gradually separated and float to the surface.
After all the impurities were processed, the elf next to him took out the impurities and poured the resin in the large porcelain vat into another container.
Another elf added an unknown light blue powder into it, and after constant stirring and rolling, the light yellow value that was originally dissolved became a little viscous, and the color gradually turned into light blue.
Finally, under the guidance of the other elves, the prepared resin flowed into the mold that had been prepared. After a period of natural cooling, the shaped magic fan casings were formed.
Although the whole step seems rough and crude, under the unique magic of the elves, the final plastic shell is of better quality than those processed by plastic factories on earth.
And because of the nature of the elves, these resins are processed into plastic shells, which can still maintain the fragrance of the resin, unlike ordinary plastics that have a unique odor.
At first glance, the entire processing process appears to be without any problems. The elves are completing their work in an orderly manner.
But if you watch for a while, you will find that from time to time some elves who are working will stop their work, walk around, and even sing and dance.
The other elves didn't find this situation strange at all. There was even an elf who seemed to be a little too excited when adding additives to the raw materials and threw a lot of them in casually.
And he actually let this batch of raw materials enter the next process. As a result, the final plastic shell was obviously deformed.
If you look at the final shaping process, you will find something even more surprising.
Several elves who seemed to be idle and bored gathered around the shell that was gradually forming in the mold. After some discussion, one of the elves then picked up a branch on the ground and placed it on top of the shell that was not yet fully formed. Start gesticulating.
After he finished his action, perhaps because they thought the pattern he drew on it was beautiful, the elves clapped happily.
The muscles on Xu Yi's face couldn't help but twitch twice.
Although he had guessed from the extremely high defective rate of more than 30% of the plastic casings that the elves must not be very strict in the production of these plastic casings, he never expected that these elves were producing these plastic casings in a serious way. During the process, he actually became so casual!
If it were human workers in the factories of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, like the situation just now, Xu Yi would definitely fire all these guys without saying a word!
Turning his head and glancing at Elder Elusia, he found that her face was still calm, but her furrowed brows still revealed that her mood at the moment was definitely not much better.
Both of them were under the influence of Elder Elushia's latent shadow technique, so there was no need to worry about being discovered by the elves over there.
But looking at the performance of these elves like this is really not a pleasant feeling.
"President Xu, how do human workers work in your chamber of commerce's factory?" Elder Elushia suddenly asked.
Xu Yi glanced at the elves in the distance who didn't look serious at all, and shook his head: "I can't tell clearly, but it's definitely not like them."
"Really?" Elder Elusia pondered for a moment and continued: "President Xu, actually I don't really understand what discipline means. I didn't think there was anything wrong with the clansmen being like this before, but After talking to you today, I found that this seems wrong, but I don’t know how to change it. President Xu, do you have any ideas?”
"Do you really want to change them?" Xu Yi asked.
"Yes."
"That's simple, teach them to me. There is a very simple way to change them, and that is..." A cold smile appeared at the corner of Xu Yi's mouth. "Special training." (To be continued...)
