A carriage drove out from Viscount Leslie's estate and soon set foot on the flat road leading to Bonta City.
In the carriage, Viscount Leslie was holding a copy of Bonta Daily and flipping through it.
After looking at it for a while, Viscount Leslie nodded appreciatively: "This thing is really good. I'm sure it will become popular. Xu Yi, it will be much more convenient for you to advertise on it in the future."
Xu Yi, who was sitting opposite Viscount Leslie, stopped flipping through the information in his hand, raised his head and smiled: "Sir Viscount, although you are right, I did create this mainly to facilitate future advertising, but You must not say that in front of Baron Heiners, he will definitely be angry. "
Viscount Leslie laughed: "Yes, that guy is so devoted to this thing now. I think if you go to him and tell him that you want to advertise on it, he might not even be able to respect you as the founder. Sell it?"
Xu Yi shrugged: "That doesn't matter. Anyway, I created this newspaper just to find something for him to do, so that he would not hang around me and the factory all day long, causing Heinze to complain to me every day."
Viscount Leslie laughed even louder: "Xu Yi, if Heinze hears your truth, he will definitely be angry to death. Is he so annoying?"
"No, no, no, Lord Viscount, you can't say this nonsense. How can Baron Heiners cause trouble? It's just... well, he cares too much about me and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, and it will slightly affect our work. Now I have developed a magic printing press specifically for him, and provided enough funds and space for him to establish the "Bonta Daily". Baron Heiners is very grateful to me. If he hears what you say, it will If you misunderstand me, I will suffer a big loss.”
Viscount Leslie shook his head: "Hainas is still too young to be tricked in by you so easily. Originally, according to the schedule, he should return to Anvilmar now, but now you have created such a "Bonta Daily" 》He was so happy that he even forgot about going back. When I met with him the day before yesterday, he even told me that he wanted to stay here and make "Bangta Daily" better and better. , I really don’t know what he is thinking.”
Xu Yi smiled slightly, thinking that this is actually very simple. The "Bangta Daily" is an extremely novel thing on the continent of Sainz. It not only satisfies Baron Heiners's gossip mentality, but also satisfies him as a Young people in their early twenties have a passionate mentality and feel that they can control many things by relying on this newspaper, so they are naturally very enthusiastic about it.
Of course, the reason why Xu Yi pushed him to the position of editor-in-chief of "Bangta Daily" was not just to find something for him to do and not let him bother him.
Regarding "Bangta Daily", Xu Yi has considered it very clearly. Although this is a new thing for Sainz Continent, he believes that many people will soon see the huge energy brought by this new thing.
With Xu Yi's current status, he was definitely not suitable to master this thing. Therefore, when he founded "Bangta Daily", although he provided creativity, funds and venues, he left the ownership of the newspaper in In the name of Viscount Leslie, he had a conversation with Baron Haynes and tricked him into becoming the editor-in-chief.
Now on the surface, "Bangta Daily" has nothing to do with Xu Yi and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but in fact this newspaper will definitely be influenced by Xu Yi and will inevitably favor the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to a certain extent.
"Actually, you can tell Baron Heiners that even if he returns to Anvilmar, he can still serve as the editor-in-chief of the newspaper. At worst, he can just start his own "Anvilmar Daily News." Xu Yi said with a smile.
Viscount Leslie glanced at Xu Yi thoughtfully and shook his head slightly: "Do you think Anvilmar is the same as here? It's not so easy to do something in Anvilmar, especially for something as sensitive as a newspaper. Something. Do you believe that if it were in Anvilmar, even if this newspaper could actually appear, it would eventually become something completely different from what you imagined? "
"Of course I believe this." Xu Yi nodded repeatedly with an expression of understanding.
Viscount Leslie looked out the car window in the north direction. He was lost in thought for a long time. Suddenly he sighed softly, turned his head again, restored his indifferent expression, and asked Xu Yi: "Forget it, don't talk about this. Think about it for a while." What are you going to say when you see the Earl?"
Xu Yi clicked on the information in his hand, then pointed to his head: "Everything is ready."
"That's good." Viscount Leslie nodded. "This is your first time being received by the Earl, so you must try your best to leave him with a good impression. If you can get his support, it will be a great help to you and the Chamber of Commerce."
"Of course I understand that."
The carriage rattled all the way into Bangta City, then turned its head towards the north of the city without stopping, and finally stopped in front of the city lord's palace in the middle of the north of the city.
Xu Yi and Viscount Leslie jumped out of the carriage, and a middle-aged man wearing butler's clothes came up to them.
"Viscount Leslie, the Lord of the City has been waiting for a long time." The middle-aged man who should be the housekeeper of the City Lord's Mansion greeted Viscount Leslie with a smile, and then glanced at Xu Yi. "This must be President Xu, right? Please come with me."
There is a clear difference in the attitude of this butler towards Viscount Leslie and Xu Yi. When greeting Viscount Leslie, he was extremely enthusiastic and even showed a hint of respect, but when facing Xu Yi, he was much colder. , is no different from greeting a passerby.
Naturally, Xu Yi would not feel any sense of loss because of this. With his current status, being able to be received by the Lord of the City was based on Viscount Leslie's face.
On the other hand, Viscount Leslie valued Xu Yi much more, and made a special trip to introduce Xu Yi: "Xu Yi, this is the earl's butler Ete. You may see him many times in the future, but please remember it."
Xu Yi smiled and nodded to Butler Ete.
Butler Etter looked at Viscount Leslie with a slightly surprised look. When he looked at Xu Yi again, he showed a smile, which seemed a little more cordial than before.
After a brief exchange of greetings, Xu Yi consciously lagged half behind Viscount Leslie and followed Butler Etter towards the city lord's palace.
The city lord's mansion was not as big as Xu Yi expected. After walking for a while, he came to a hall that looked like a living room.
However, Butler Etter did not lead the two of them in. Instead, he turned around and led the way to the side.
"The Lord of the City has prepared dinner in the restaurant. Please come with me, both of you."
Hearing Butler Etter's explanation, Xu Yi couldn't help but take another look at Viscount Leslie.
Although it has long been known that Viscount Leslie and the city lord Earl Sean Summer have a good relationship, but now judging from Butler Etter's attitude towards him and the city lord's direct invitation to the two of them to the restaurant, I am afraid that between them The relationship between them is far closer than Xu Yi had expected before.
It seems that the family power behind Viscount Leslie is indeed not weak. Otherwise, it would be impossible for a small Viscount to have such a good personal relationship with the majestic lord of the city, a noble earl.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the restaurant under the guidance of Butler Etter, and saw Count Sean Summer who was already seated in the restaurant.
As soon as he saw the two of them, Earl Satsuma immediately let out a hearty laugh and waved his hand for them to take their seats.
As soon as he sat down, Xu Yi suddenly felt a strange cool breeze blowing from his back. He turned his head in surprise and saw a magic air conditioner hanging on the wall of the restaurant, which was emitting a faint cyan light. The light is blowing a cool breeze this way.
Noticing Xu Yi's actions, Earl Satsuma laughed again: "President Xu, do you remember that the first time we met was at the banquet hosted by Leslie that night? If I am not wrong, this boy was I have colluded with you to hold the banquet. I want to help you promote this magic air conditioner, right? Otherwise, with this kid's temper, how could he find such a large number of people to bother him. "
Xu Yi and Viscount Leslie exchanged a surprised look and said with a smile: "The city lord is indeed wise. Yes, I did ask the viscount to help me with that banquet, and the purpose was indeed to promote the magic air conditioner. Of course, the effect Very good, isn’t it?”
"Of course, don't you realize that even I can't bear the temptation, so I bought several units at once." Earl Summer pointed at Viscount Leslie. "I thought at that time that even this arrogant boy was willing to help you, so Xu Yi, you must be a very capable guy. Unexpectedly, I had underestimated it at the time. Only more than two months have passed. Your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has come up with so many novel things, which is eye-opening to me.”
"Your Majesty, City Lord, you are so grateful. Those are just some little things that I figured out in my spare time. They are really nothing." Xu Yi said humbly.
"Little thing?" Earl Satsuma glanced at Xu Yi, smiled slightly, but said no more, turning to the steward Ete who was standing by and nodding.
Butler Etter clapped his hands, and a group of maids filed out carrying various dinner plates.
The maid at the end was different from the maid in front. There was actually a magic rice cooker on the plate she was carrying!
Seeing the stunned expressions of Xu Yi and Viscount Leslie, Earl Summer laughed again.
"What? Don't you like rice?"
Viscount Leslie shrugged his shoulders and said in a smart manner: "My lord, you know that I have never been too picky about what I eat."
Xu Yi frowned slightly.
The city lord has been showing off his understanding of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce from the very beginning, so is this a sign of goodwill? Or a warning
