The level of living technology in Sainz Continent is far lower than that on Earth, and the so-called embassy is naturally not as high-end and upscale as those on Earth. However, as one of the few kingdoms in Lampali that have peaceful exchanges, Sihak The Kingdom's embassy in Anvilmar still occupies a large area in Anvilmar. ?. .
However, the Kingdom of Sihanoukville obviously does not attach much importance to this embassy. The entire embassy looks like a very ordinary residence. Except for the flag hanging on it representing the Kingdom of Sihanoukville, there is nothing that makes it feel like this. It is a very important architectural place.
Xu Yi once heard a saying on earth that a country's embassy in other countries not only symbolizes the image of its own country, but also represents the importance it attaches to the target country.
This sentence is of course also true on the Sainz continent, and from Xu Yi's perspective, the reason why the embassy of the Kingdom of Sihak in the Kingdom of Lampali seems so ordinary is probably not because it does not pay attention to its own country. Image, but don’t care so much about the Lampali Kingdom.
After all, compared with the Kingdom of Sihak, which is known as one of the few kingdoms on the mainland that can even challenge the Kandra Empire and the Maro Empire, it was in turmoil more than ten years ago, and now its national power on the entire continent is completely reversed. The Lampali Kingdom is not on the same level at all. So when Xu Yi came to the Sihak Kingdom Embassy at 7pm on time to attend the banquet with an invitation in hand, although the waiter who received him was very enthusiastic, the Sihak Kingdom Ambassador also showed a smile on his face to entertain him. But Xu Yi could easily feel the contempt from it.
Xu Yi originally thought that the Embassy of the Kingdom of Sihak sent someone to invite him, and there would definitely be important discussions. When the result came, I saw this situation. If he hadn't seen a few acquaintances at the banquet, he would have really wanted to turn around and leave instead of staying here to waste time.
"President Lanke, look at Ambassador Parames' attitude towards you just now. This shouldn't be the first time you have been invited to this banquet by him, right?" The first acquaintance Xu Yixiang met was also from Bangta. asked President Lanke of the city's Salanke Chamber of Commerce.
"That's right. Every year at the end of the year, Ambassador Parames will entertain businessmen from our Lampali Kingdom. It can be regarded as to bring some business to their Sihak Kingdom." President Lanke responded casually. , gave Xu Yi a funny look. "But Ambassador Parames is probably going to make a big joke this time. He finally invited you, President Xu, but he treated you so lightly. Isn't he afraid of offending your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?" "He It represents the Kingdom of Sihak. Only us businessmen who want to do business with the Kingdom of Sihak are afraid of offending him. How could he be afraid of offending me?" Xu Yi shrugged. "No matter what, I still hope to capture the market in the Kingdom of Sihak. President Lanke, for the sake of an old friend, tell me, how is the investment environment in the Kingdom of Sihak?"
"Speaking of the investment environment..." President Lanke took a sip of the red wine in his hand, pondered for a moment and said: "Overall, it is very good. The Kingdom of Sihak has not experienced any turmoil in so many years, and the political situation is stable. People's living conditions are much better than ours in the Lampali Kingdom, and their spending power is also strong, so the market is very broad..."
"What is it?"
President Lanco glanced at Ambassador Parames, who was talking to a businessman in the distance, and lowered his voice slightly.
"The political situation in the Kingdom of Sihak is very stable, but it has been stable for too long... Those officials have become more and more lavish... "
Xu Yi understood immediately.
President Lanke's words clearly refer to the serious corruption problem in the Sihak Kingdom.
Xu Yi pointed at Ambassador Palames: "Where is this Ambassador Palames?"
President Lanke took another sip of red wine, a slightly weird smile appeared on his face, but he said nothing.
Xu Yi's heart brightened, he smiled and did not continue to ask further questions.
After chatting with President Lanco for a few more words, Xu Yi walked over when he saw the businessman beside Ambassador Parames leaving.
"Ambassador Palames..."
"Ambassador Palames..."
Two shouts sounded at the same time, but another businessman from the Lampali Kingdom came over from the other direction, and greeted Ambassador Parames at the same time as Xu Yi.
Both of them were stunned and glanced at each other. Xu Yi discovered that the person who had the same idea as him was actually Colma Lundes, the president of the Walmart Chamber of Commerce.
"Hey, President Lenders, hello. I saw you just now, but I never had time to say hello." Xu Yi raised his hand to signal.
President Lenders smiled back at Xu Yi, glanced at Ambassador Parames, and nodded to Xu Yi: "Since you have something to do with the ambassador, you should talk to him first. Ambassador, I will come back later. Looking for you."
After speaking, President Lenders raised the wine glass in his hand to Xu Yi and Ambassador Parames, then turned and left.
Ambassador Parames withdrew his gaze from President Lenders and turned to look at Xu Yi with slight surprise.
The Wal-Mart Chamber of Commerce is the leading chamber of commerce in the Lampali Kingdom, and of course he recognizes President Lundes.
In the opinion of Ambassador Parames, there is no more than one businessman who can be equal to President Lundes in the Lampali Kingdom. Therefore, under normal circumstances, it should be the small businessman in front of him who he does not know at all. Just give in.
However, to his surprise, it was President Lundes who took the initiative to give in!
Thinking of President Lenders' attitude towards Xu Yi just now, Ambassador Parames put away his contempt for Xu Yi, showed him a smile and said: "Excuse me, are you..."
"Ambassador, please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Xu Yi, and I am the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce."
"Xu Yi? Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?" A trace of thought flashed across Ambassador Parames' eyes, but a smile immediately broke out on his face, and he said enthusiastically: "It turns out to be President Xu, hello, hello."
From his facial reaction, Xu Yi could easily infer that this guy definitely had no idea who he was.
"It seems that the reputation of our Chamber of Commerce is not big enough." Xu Yi couldn't help but mutter in his heart. But with a smile on his face, he said: "Ambassador, our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is a chamber of commerce that mainly produces magic machinery. The current main products are..."
"I know. It's those magic fans, magic refrigerators and so on, right?" Ambassador Parames interrupted Xu Yi unceremoniously. "A lot of chambers of commerce that produce these things have popped up in your Lampali Kingdom in the past two years. Your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce seems to be one of them that does a very good job. Am I right?"
Xu Yi couldn't help but be happy.
It can be seen from the ambassador's words that he not only does not understand the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but also has no understanding of the entire magic machinery industry.
He actually said that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is one of the chambers of commerce that produces magic machinery that does a very good job... This industry was basically founded by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce!
Xu Yi is now very suspicious that the invitation to this banquet may not have been confirmed by the ambassador at all. He may not even have read it.
otherwise. How could he appear so ignorant
Although he despises Ambassador Palames in his heart. Xu Yi still maintained a respectful smile on the surface and replied: "Yes, our Chamber of Commerce has done a pretty good job in this regard. So Ambassador, do you think... is our Chamber of Commerce qualified to invest in the Kingdom of Sihak?" "…
"Investment?" Ambassador Parames looked at Xu Yi in surprise. "Does your chamber of commerce have the ability to invest in our Kingdom of Sihak? President Xu. This is no joke. You have to know that even if you invest in something casually, you will need at least hundreds of thousands of gold coins..."
Xu Yi nodded with a smile: "Yes, I understand. Our Chamber of Commerce initially plans to invest one million gold coins in the Kingdom of Sihak to establish two factories to produce some of our Chamber of Commerce's household magic machines on site. Ambassador, you how do you feel?"
"One million gold coins?" Ambassador Parames looked at Xu Yi in astonishment. He had no idea that this young-looking guy would actually say that he wanted to invest one million gold coins!
Hear this number. Ambassador Parames, who had been a little careless just now, immediately put on a smile on his face, took Xu Yi's hand and walked towards the corner of the hall.
"Come on, President Xu, let's sit down and talk in detail..."
…
Half an hour later, Xu Yi returned to the crowd in the hall with a smile on his face.
President Lanke squeezed over immediately.
"What? Have you reached an agreement with him?"
"We just reached a preliminary intention." Xu Yi shook his head. "But Ambassador Parames is really enthusiastic. After chatting with him for a while, I even felt guilty about not investing in the Kingdom of Sihak."
President Lanke laughed: "Of course he is enthusiastic about things that are of great benefit to the Sihak Kingdom and himself. How about it? When I was talking to you just now, did he... "
President Lanke raised his eyebrows at Xu Yi and winked, but did not say anything clearly.
Xu Yi smiled slightly: "After all, I am the Ambassador, how can I be so impatient. However, I deeply feel the Ambassador's enthusiastic expectations and fully respond."
President Lanke laughed, but did not ask Xu Yi how he responded to Ambassador Parames. He just nodded and said: "I must admit that although these people in the Sihak Kingdom are a little greedy, as long as they If you satisfy them, they will be very reliable in getting things done.”
"That's good." Xu Yi praised. "I'm just afraid of those guys who are incompetent but still greedy. That's the worst thing."
"Are you thinking of the Principality of Standing?" President Lanke glanced at Xu Yi.
Xu Yi smiled bitterly, shook his head, and sighed: "It's hard to explain in one sentence. In short, as an old friend, I really hope that my colleagues in Bangta City will not consider investing in the Principality of Standing. It is really asking for trouble. "
President Lanke smiled and patted Xu Yi on the shoulder: "Let's not talk about the Principality of Standing. President Xu, as I mentioned to you last time, I went to the Kingdom of Sak to do some business. Are you still interested?"
Xu Yi raised his head in astonishment, looking at President Lanke's wrinkled but red old face, and a thought suddenly crossed his mind.
No way… )
