Sevigny read the book almost word for word, slowly and carefully.
Although this booklet is thin, there are actually not many words on it. It took Sevigny half an hour to read the last word.
After reading it, Sevigny closed his eyes slightly and pondered for ten minutes before speaking.
"Xu Yi, what is written here are the benefits that energy standardization has brought to our Lampali Kingdom. So can you tell me, what benefits will this bring to your new aviation business?"
Xu Yi smiled slightly: "Dear Her Majesty the Queen, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
Sevini glared at Xu Yi angrily: "Maliciously deceiving the king is a capital crime."
Xu Yi chuckled and said, "What if it's not a malicious deception? At least... it's a deception that doesn't have much impact?"
"That won't work either." Sevini said sternly: "If we don't know what benefits this energy standardization will bring to your new aviation business, the members of the Kingdom Parliament will definitely not feel free to follow the proposal and implement this policy."
"So Her Majesty the Queen, do you believe me?" Xu Yi asked again.
"If I didn't believe you, why would I talk so much nonsense to you?" Sevini suddenly sighed softly. "There is no one else here. Don't always call me Her Majesty the Queen. Shouldn't we still call each other by our names as before?"
Xu Yi pondered for a moment and nodded slowly: "Okay. Sevini, the benefits of this energy standardization to the Lampali Kingdom are mainly focused on the unified management and distribution of energy, which can strengthen local jurisdiction and control. I have listed these in the report It’s very clear. As for the benefits of energy standardization to our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, would you believe it?”
"Oh?" Sevini was a little curious. "What effort will be saved?"
"For example." Xu Yi paused and said: "It is also a magic fan. Because the quality of magic crystals is different, and even the sizes are different, our chamber of commerce must take many aspects into consideration when designing the magic fan. Because of this, we were forced to pay several times more R&D and design costs, as well as excess production costs.”
"So you want all magic fans to use magic crystals of the same specifications?" Sevini asked immediately.
"Yes." Xu Yi nodded. "Actually, our Chamber of Commerce has been doing this. For example, our Chamber of Commerce has currently opened a magic crystal refining factory, specializing in the production of specific, unified specifications of magic crystals. When producing new household magic machines, our Chamber of Commerce uses our own customized This standard means that people who buy our new models of household magic machines must use this refined and standardized magic crystal. "
"Well, this is a good idea." Sevini praised: "With your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's current absolute monopoly in the household magic machinery industry, people who want to use household magic machinery have no choice at all and must accept your introduction. With this standard, we are forced to accept this new type of standardized magic crystal.”
"The truth is not as good as you think." Xu Yi said with a bitter smile. "Although our Xinfei brand household magic machine is indeed the most popular household magic machine, we have received a lot of support and understanding after launching this new standard. But... this approach still makes many old users of our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce Because they don’t want to use the standardized magic crystals we have launched, they have switched to purchasing household magic machines produced by other chambers of commerce. Because of this, the sales volume of our chamber of commerce’s household magic machines fell by 13%.”
"It actually dropped so much?" Sevigny couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, looking surprised.
In terms of domestic magical machinery. Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is undoubtedly the top one, and it is not even a little bit ahead of other chambers of commerce.
Although Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's household magic machines are generally more expensive than other brands of household magic machines, the excellent performance and quality of Xinfei's household magic machines make people always their first choice when buying household magic machines. It's a new flying brand.
However, under such circumstances, the sales of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's household magic machines actually dropped by 13%, which is really surprising.
"This is wrong..." Sevini said in confusion. "Using this standard magic crystal can obviously extend the working time of household magic machinery, and even extend the service life of household magic machinery. Why are those people still unwilling to accept it? Is it because you have not publicized the performance of this standardized magic crystal? good?"
"No, because we want to launch this standard, our Chamber of Commerce has invested at least 200,000 gold coins in promoting the benefits of standardized magic crystals. But... for many customers who buy household magic machines, what they care about most is Whether it is easy to use or not, and how inconvenient it is to use. The household magic machines of our Chamber of Commerce can only use standardized magic crystals, and there are not many places where you can buy standardized magic crystals at present, making them inconvenient to use. Naturally, Let them give up."
"Impossible." Sevigny suddenly shook his head firmly. "Xu Yi, there's no way you wouldn't have expected this kind of thing, why would you do it?"
Xu Yi curled his lips, smiled and said: "Okay, I have indeed expected this result, so this time is actually an experiment I did. I just want to see, just relying on our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, Can we successfully promote energy standardization?”
"Then you failed, so you came to me for help?" Sevini looked at Xu Yi with a half-smile.
"Well... Queen..." Seeing Sevini's eyes glinting, Xu Yi immediately changed his words. "Ahem, Sevini, you are a good friend of mine. It is the duty of a friend to share your worries. What's more, this matter will also be of great benefit to the Kingdom of Lampali. You shouldn't refuse me?"
Sevini stared at Xu Yi for a while, then looked down at the thin booklet, pondered for a long time, and then nodded slowly.
"Okay, even if I agree to you, what are you actually going to do? If you want to forcefully push your energy standard without any additional means, it is absolutely impossible to pass it in the Kingdom Parliament."
"Of course." Seeing Sevini finally nodding, Xu Yi showed a confident smile. "First of all, I suggest Sevini that you establish a chamber of commerce in the name of the royal family."
"There is already a chamber of commerce under the royal family, and Reeves is in charge. Don't you know him?" Sevigny asked in surprise.
"This is different." Xu Yi shook his head. "This chamber of commerce must clearly tell everyone that it belongs to the royal family, and the business operated by this chamber of commerce can only be involved by the Lampali Kingdom, and other chambers of commerce are not allowed to intervene."
Sevigny was startled: "So overbearing? But the Nobles' Council has regulations. Nobles are not allowed to do business directly, not even the royal family."
"It doesn't matter, no matter what the name is, you just need to convey this information. In short, other people are not allowed to access this business."
Sevini frowned slightly: "Is it so serious?"
Xu Yi nodded heavily: "Of course. Sevini, I can tell you with certainty that this business involves the foundation of the entire continent in the future. Only by controlling this business can we control the real power. If you want the royal family to continue If you want to control the Lampali Kingdom, you must take this business completely into your own hands.”
Sevini looked at Xu Yi in surprise.
I have known Xu Yi for so long, and although I have seen Xu Yi acting serious and serious many times, I have never seen Xu Yi act so solemnly like he is now.
Matching his tone, Sevini knew that in Xu Yi's mind, the importance of the business operated by this chamber of commerce was likely to be far greater than she imagined.
After a pause, Sevini nodded slightly: "Okay, I can consider it. But you haven't told me yet, what exactly is the business of this chamber of commerce?"
"Generally speaking, it is energy. The name of this chamber of commerce can actually be called Lampali Energy Chamber of Commerce." Xu Yi replied.
"Energy? Is it the magic crystal?" Sevini was even more surprised. "Magic crystals are everywhere, what's the point worth paying attention to?"
Xu Yi shook his head: "Sevini, if you still have this idea, the Lampali Kingdom will most likely miss the best opportunity to rise. I am making a bold prediction here. In the future, on the Sainz continent, control Energy is equivalent to controlling the entire continent. This energy is just a general term. For now, it actually refers to the magic crystal. "
Sevini pondered, his expression still full of doubts.
However, after staring at Xu Yi's determined face for a while, the confusion on Sevini's face gradually faded.
"Okay, I believe you." As if to strengthen his confidence, Sevini nodded vigorously. "Xu Yi, your predictions so far have never come true. Regarding this prophecy of energy, I naturally choose to believe you. But if energy only refers to magic crystal, it may be impossible to fully control it. Because on this continent, Magic crystals are everywhere.”
"That's why I proposed the energy standardization proposal, isn't it?" Xu Yi smiled and nodded at the thin booklet on the table. "Although magic crystals are everywhere, standard magic crystals that can meet the standards of high purity, high concentration, and refinement are not everywhere."
Sevini was the only one who concentrated, and then his eyes lit up.
"Xu Yi, are you willing to hand over the technology for refining magic crystals?"
Xu Yi smiled slightly and stretched out his hand to Sevini.
"Dear Her Majesty the Queen, on behalf of the Kingdom of Lampali, are you willing to jointly open the first magic repair station on the Sainz continent with our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?" (To be continued...)
