The city of Nisi has never been so lively as it has been these past few days.
Three days ago, when the ocean-going fleet of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce arrived at the port of Nixi City, which was built just two months ago, and anchored at the port, the entire Nixi City was shocked.
Countless people flocked to the port to watch these three magic ships that were said to come from the Principality of Standing, which was more than 2,000 kilometers away.
Looking at these three huge magic ships parked on the shore like hills, everyone couldn't help but marvel.
Such a big ship is beyond everyone's imagination.
Not to mention that the entire body of these three ships is made of hard steel, with almost no wood visible on the outside.
After seeing these three ships, everyone was not only shocked but also filled with questions.
The weight of the ship, which is entirely made of steel, is absolutely astonishing.
So how does such a heavy ship float on the sea and even travel at high speed
The straight-line distance from the Principality of Standing to here is close to two thousand kilometers, so the sea journey will definitely exceed two thousand kilometers, and it may be close to three thousand kilometers.
It is said that these three ships set off from the Principality of Standing more than 20 days ago. If calculated, it is equivalent to sailing on the sea for more than 100 kilometers on average every day. The onlookers were even more shocked when they saw with their own eyes the sailors constantly carrying cargo down from the three ships.
Although it can be inferred from the huge appearance of these three ships that their cargo capacity must be exaggerated, when people saw with their own eyes that the sailors did not stop working at all. After three consecutive days of moving, the goods on these three ships were not yet finished. But it still feels incredible.
Although it is only three ships. But judging from this situation, I am afraid that the cargo on these three ships is enough to be transported by hundreds... not thousands of carriages at the same time!
No wonder the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce claims to have invested millions of gold coins to cooperate with Nixi City to build this port. Being able to transport such horrific goods in one shipment will undoubtedly help the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce save a lot of manpower, material resources and time. .
After seeing the terrifying cargo capacity of these three magic ships with their own eyes, many people immediately became excited.
"Captain Nerval, good morning."
A fat middle-aged man got out of a magic car with a smile and raised his hand to say hello to Nieval who was supervising the sailors at the port. "Good morning, President Randolph."
This President Randolph is the president of a chamber of commerce in Nisi City that deals in spices and timber. Since the day before yesterday, he accompanied Count Kompany, the new lord of Nisi City, to attend a ceremony to welcome the arrival of the fleet of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. Every day in the past three days. Come and chat with Nerval for a while.
"Captain Nerval, how long will it take for these goods to be shipped?" President Randolph asked, looking at the busy sailors on and off the three ships.
"If we don't delay, we can finish them all today at the earliest and tomorrow at the latest." Nerval answered and raised his eyebrows. He asked, "What? Does President Randolph have any advice?".
President Randolph laughed: "Why do you have any advice? I just want to discuss some things with Captain Nerval. I wonder if Captain Nerval can have a meal with me at noon?"
"Here we come." Nerval smiled secretly in his heart. But he had a serious look on his face and shook his head. "I'm afraid I can only apologize for this. Before setting off, the president gave a strict order not to allow anyone in the fleet to attend any private banquets."…
"But the Lord's dinner party three days ago..."
"I attended that in the name of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, on behalf of the president. Moreover, the city lord is not hosting the banquet in a private name, but on behalf of the Luersun Kingdom and the official city of Nixi." Neva said seriously.
"This..." Seeing that Neva's expression was serious and did not look like a joke, President Randolph felt a little embarrassed.
Originally, I wanted to discuss some matters with Nerval over the banquet, but now Nerval's attitude of being indifferent was really unexpected.
Nerval suddenly showed a smile: "President Randolph, the president said before leaving that you can't eat food, but there are some things you can talk about..."
President Randolph's eyes suddenly lit up, he looked left and right, and gently pulled Nerval.
Nerval understood, and he and he came to a dark place covered by the huge hull of the Rising Sun.
President Randolph pondered for a moment and then said: "Captain Nerval, after you go back this time, you will definitely come back again after a while, right?"
"Of course." Nerval nodded. "There are still a lot of goods ordered by the Luersun Kingdom from our New Flying Chamber of Commerce that need to be transported. Our task is still very heavy."
"Then... is it possible... I mean possible, that while transporting the cargo of your New Flying Chamber of Commerce, some other cargo is also included in it?" President Randolph asked cautiously.
Nerval looked at President Randolph with a half-smile: "I can't decide this, it has to be decided by the president."
Seeing that Nerval did not say anything, President Randolph suddenly relaxed and said with a smile: "Of course, this must be decided by President Xu. But Captain Nerval, when you see President Xu , can you let him mention that I hope that when your fleet comes to Nisi City again, you can help me transport a batch of goods from the Principality of Standing? "
"It's okay to make this request to the president for you, but I can't guarantee that the president will agree."
President Randolph nodded repeatedly: "No problem, no problem, as long as you can convey the message for me. But Captain Nerval, while conveying the message, also hopes that you can add one more sentence, saying that as long as President Xu can agree, I am willing to pay enough freight for this batch of goods to ensure President Xu’s satisfaction, what do you think?”
Nerval couldn't help but laugh, thinking that the president was really good at predicting things.
Before setting off, Xu Yi specifically explained to Nevar about this situation. And told him how to deal with it.
So Nevaar pretended to be thinking about it. I pondered for a while. Then he nodded very reluctantly.
"Well... I can tell the truth to the president. But President Randolph, if you choose another method, I think the president will be more likely to agree to your request... "
"Huh?" President Randolph immediately understood the meaning of Neva's words and quickly said: "Captain Neva, please make it clear."
Nerval coughed lightly, looked around, and deliberately lowered his voice: "President Randolph, you should know that our New Flying Chamber of Commerce mainly manufactures magic machinery. This manufacture of magic machinery. Of course, a large amount of iron ore is required. Ah, there are some other messy metal mines, but you also know that the Principality of Standing is a small place with very limited mineral resources, so the president has always hoped to buy enough metal mines from other places... "
As the saying goes, one knows the elegant meaning after hearing a stringed song. As the president of a chamber of commerce, President Randolph could not understand the meaning of Neva's words. He laughed and said: "This is simple. Although I am a small person in the city of Nixi, but It’s okay to have some mineral resources.”
After saying this, President Randolph suddenly felt something in his heart. Frown slightly.
"But President Nerval, with the close cooperative relationship between your New Flying Chamber of Commerce and our Luersun Kingdom. If you really need a large amount of metal mines, I think President Xu can directly propose to His Majesty King Trutz. Our Luersun Kingdom purchased it, why should we go through this method?"
Nerval sighed: "The President has long proposed to His Majesty King Trutz, and has received the consent of His Majesty King Trutz. I am not afraid to reveal a secret to you. In fact, His Majesty King Trutz has reached an agreement with our Chamber of Commerce. We signed an agreement and agreed to sell the mining rights of five metal mines in the Luersun Kingdom, but the president still felt that it was not enough, so he wanted to get more through other channels, do you understand?”
President Randolph thought for a while, and his eyebrows gradually relaxed.
Since His Majesty King Trutz is willing to sign an agreement with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to sell metal mines in the kingdom, it proves that His Majesty the King will not restrict transactions in this area.
Moreover, the Luersun Kingdom has never placed any restrictions on this kind of business, so even if he reaches a deal with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in private, there should be no problems.
Of course, this matter still requires some caution, so President Randolph did not agree immediately. Instead, he told Nieval that he would seriously consider it and try to give Nieval a clear answer within the next few days.
This result was also expected by Nerval. Anyway, he came to Nisi City this time just to explore the way, to contact some businessmen in Nisi City and the Luersun Kingdom, and to reveal this intention.
With the powerful shock brought by these three huge magic ships of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, I believe that many people will be tempted by this like President Randolph.
But to be honest, Nevaar actually doesn't quite understand why the president is so thirsty for mineral resources.
Although the mineral resources in the Standing Principality are not particularly rich due to their area, they can fully meet the current needs of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and there is even a huge surplus.
However, the president seemed to be completely unsatisfied. Not only did he require Nerval to explore every time he found a large enough island during his deep-sea voyage, he also specifically told him to do this after arriving in Nisi City. Put on a show.
However, apart from Thunder Island, there were not many small islands discovered along the route, and only a few of them contained mineral resources.
"I don't know if he will be disappointed after going back and reporting to the president..."
Nerval shook his head and sighed. After seeing President Randolph get into the magic car and leave the port, he walked out of the shadows.
Just as he was about to turn around and instruct the sailors to work harder, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a very familiar magic car coming from the outside of the port at high speed from the corner of his eye.
This pure white magic car stopped directly in the port space next to the Chaoyang. The door opened, revealing Xu Yi's tall body.
Nerval was stunned for a moment, and when he was about to rush over, he found that the car door on the other side opened, and a little girl in her teens got out of it.
Neva was stunned for a moment.
President, when did he... when did he have such an old illegitimate daughter
