Leslie put down the telescope in his hand and nodded with satisfaction. ￡∝ Summit novel,
The closest one of the launched magic rockets was nearly two hundred meters away from the ships of the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire, and it did not cause any substantial damage to them. This result made him very satisfied and relieved.
Even if Leslie didn't take the combat effectiveness of the Candela Empire's Royal Fleet seriously at all, the other party represented the Candela Empire's side after all. If it really caused damage to the other party, it would be equivalent to declaring war on the Candela Empire.
No matter how bold Leslie was, it was impossible for him to do such a crazy thing.
"Master Leslie, since we have escaped, why do we have to fire some magic rockets to scare them? Isn't this ineffective, and this will definitely anger the Kandra Empire Royal Fleet. We want to be here again in the future. I’m afraid it won’t be that easy if you move in a large area of sea.”
The lookout on the side took the telescope handed over by Leslie and took a look at the situation in the distance, feeling a little worried.
Leslie laughed, thinking that if you ask me this question, I don’t know who to ask.
If he goes by his thoughts and rational judgment, it is obvious that he should honestly avoid any conflict with the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire.
Since you don't want to let the other party board the ship for any search, then escaping directly is a very good choice.
If you have already escaped, you should simply run away.
No matter how much the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire wants to cause trouble, it is not so easy to find them on this vast sea.
What's more, the speed of the ships on both sides is so different, even if they encounter each other. It is impossible for the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire to catch them.
I believe that the guys in the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire are not fools either. After seeing the speed gap between the two sides. I will definitely give up the idea of continuing the pursuit.
But now they attacked each other while escaping. Although the purpose was just to warn, this approach made the whole incident completely different.
If it was just an ordinary routine mission when the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire tried to search and warn the escort fleet of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce before, then now as soon as these dozens of magic rockets are thrown out, it has turned into a naked ground. Attacking the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire is equivalent to challenging the Candela Empire's side.
The Candela Empire will never tolerate such provocation. I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter.
What's worse is that Leslie also made his side's identity clear just now, telling the other party that they were a convoy fleet affiliated with the New Flying Chamber of Commerce's escort team.
Even if the Candela Empire couldn't find them in the vast sea, it would have no problem finding the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
According to a somewhat strange saying that Xu Yi often said, this is called the priest who can run away but cannot run away from the church.
So in Leslie's view, the series of actions just now can be said to be unnecessary, and even very stupid.
But this series of actions... came from Xu Yi's instructions.
When setting off from the Principality of Standing, Xu Yi had a private conversation with Leslie, told him what would happen after entering the waters of the Kandra Empire, and made predictions and arrangements for what would happen today.
Leslie quite agreed with Xu Yi's crazy idea at the time. But when he actually did it today, he still felt that this approach was really... hmm. too crazy…
Thinking of Xu Yi's confident smile before leaving, Leslie smiled bitterly, thinking that now even she could no longer see through this guy's thoughts.
I don’t know where this guy got the confidence to choose this approach. He is not worried about really offending the Candela Empire. Not only will he be retaliated by the Candela Empire, but he will also be more likely to open up the market of the Candela Empire as he planned and let the magic machinery Was the idea of entering the Candela Empire on a large scale also ruined
While thinking about the long-term plan Xu Yi mentioned, the lookout beside him suddenly let out an exclamation.
"Master Leslie, look!"
Leslie looked in the direction pointed by the lookout, and saw a shadow flying quickly towards this side in the blue sky in the distance.
Seeing this familiar shadow, Leslie exhaled slowly.
"This guy is finally here."
Five minutes later, the magic airship landed steadily on the extremely wide and empty deck of the medium-sized magic frigate where Leslie was located.
The entire hull of the medium-sized magic frigate sank slightly, but it still floated steadily on the sea, which relaxed Leslie's slightly nervous mood.
The hatch of the magic airship opened, and Xu Yi's figure was the first to jump out.
As soon as they saw Xu Yi, all the crew members on the deck immediately saluted him respectfully.
As the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's status in surrounding countries becomes higher and higher, and its influence becomes greater and greater, the awe of Xu Yi in the hearts of everyone in the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce becomes more and more serious.
Although Leslie did not respect Xu Yi as much as ordinary Chamber of Commerce employees, seeing Xu Yi's calm demeanor after getting off the magic airship and the confident smile on his face, he couldn't help but feel a little emotion in his heart.
When I first met Xu Yi, he was just a low-ranking president of a small chamber of commerce, and he was also a low-ranking little magician. His status was very different from that of Leslie at that time.
But now, only five years have passed, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has grown into a super-class chamber of commerce that can have a huge impact on the Lampali Kingdom and all surrounding countries, and Xu Yi himself has become a powerful great magician.
Such a change was something that Leslie had never expected at the time.
He never imagined that one day, he would become Xu Yi's subordinate and work for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
These emotions did not affect the smile on Leslie's face. He walked over and punched Xu Yi in the chest and said with a smile: "Xu Yi, you came too late. If you had come earlier, you would have been able to Saw a good show.”
"Huh?" Xu Yi showed doubts in his eyes.
Leslie recounted in detail what happened when he encountered the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire.
After listening, the expression on Xu Yi's face did not change much. He just asked: "Are you sure that no ship in the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire was damaged? No one died?"
Leslie shrugged: "I'm not that ignorant of propriety. Don't worry, I've confirmed that they didn't have any substantial losses. But Xu Yi... Even if they didn't have any substantial losses, I can be sure of this approach. It has completely aroused their anger, which may be detrimental to our fleet and the entire chamber of commerce."
Xu Yi laughed: "Arousing their anger may not necessarily be detrimental to us. If I say that it will make my plan easier to carry out, do you believe it?"
Leslie shook his head, wanting to say he didn't believe it, but when he saw the mysterious smile on Xu Yi's face, he swallowed the words back.
From the time Xu Yi founded the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to the present, he has done a lot of crazy things, but the final result always shows how correct his initial decision was. In the end, both he and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will learn from it. Get great benefits.
But this time he offended the Candela Empire, one of the two major empires in Sainz continent. Isn't he worried about playing with fire
Xu Yi ignored Leslie's thoughts and asked him about the escort fleet's encounters at sea during this period. He learned that during this period, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escort fleet had become the overlord within a radius of hundreds of kilometers, without any After the pirate dared to challenge, he felt relieved.
"This is good, but it is not enough. Leslie, I hope you can completely control the waters of the Candela Empire and the southern waters of the mainland further east within three months." Xu Yidao.
Leslie frowned slightly: "I'm afraid this is impossible. If it is just pirates, of course it will be no problem. But now the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire has also got involved, and it has offended them to death because of their decision. Our activities in the waters of the Candela Empire There will definitely be certain restrictions and we can't really fight with them..."
Xu Yi smiled and waved his hand: "Actually, my specific request is to open up a route that runs through the entire southern sea of Sainz Continent. To ensure that there is an absolute route from our Principality of Standing to the southeastern coast of Sainz Continent. The safe route allows our Chamber of Commerce’s transport fleet to transport goods to the southeastern coast of the mainland unimpeded.”
Leslie raised his eyebrows: "What? Are you already preparing to attack so far away?"
Xu Yi smiled: "Don't forget, they took the initiative to deliver it to your door this time."
Leslie laughed and shook his head: "Okay, as long as the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire does not come to cause trouble, it is not difficult to control the southern seas of the entire continent. Of course, the few men and ships I have now are not enough, spread over such a large sea area It’s hard to have complete control, so you have to give me more people and ships.”
"This problem is being solved. But Leslie, you should also know that it is impossible to control the entire sea area by ships alone. The most feasible way is actually to control large areas of islands like Thunder Island. We need to build bases belonging to our Chamber of Commerce on the sea. This will not only have strong control over the sea area, but also allow you to have more convenient supplies. "
"Well, this is the safest approach." Leslie nodded. "But the investment required is astronomical. Are you sure you want to do it?"
Xu Yi opened his mouth, showing his white teeth, and said with a smile: "Leslie, don't forget, there are infinite resources on the sea. Although the investment is large, the benefits are also great."
Leslie couldn't help but roll her eyes.
He had forgotten that Xu Yi was a standard businessman, so how could he do a completely loss-making business? (To be continued...)
