As it turns out, Gaza was overly worried. ⊙Dingdian novel,
What Xu Yi hoped to obtain from the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom was not only something they could afford, but also... made President Gaza think it was too simple, so much so that he suspected that he had heard wrongly.
Because Xu Yi just hopes to obtain some minerals and magic material resources needed by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce from the United Kingdom of Nozdormu.
These minerals and magic materials that Xu Yi mentioned are very common things. Although they are not as ubiquitous as magic crystals and are not valuable at all, they are not particularly scarce in the United Kingdom of Nozdormu. Resources can be traded.
Through the transaction of these resources, Xu Yi promised Gaza that he could provide some of the manufacturing technology for household magic machines to the Warsaw Chamber of Commerce, so that they could also master the methods of manufacturing these household magic machines.
In order to ensure that the New Flying Chamber of Commerce can successfully take root and develop in the Commercial United Kingdom of Nozdormu, which is five thousand kilometers away, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce plans to invest in the construction of a small refinery in addition to a cement processing plant. The steel mill is guaranteed to help the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom establish a preliminary magic industrial system.
In addition, due to the geographical constraints of the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom, there is very little land that can be used for farming within the country, so the food problem has always been extremely troublesome for them. Xu Yi agreed to take the initiative to propose to Gaza that they could obtain food from the Principality of Standing. Ship a large amount of food to help them solve this most important problem.
Prior to this, the Commercial United Kingdom of Nozdormu basically imported food from the neighboring Candela Empire to meet its most basic needs.
However, the Candela Empire priced its exported grains at extremely high prices, taking wheat as an example. The lowest price is thirty-four gold coins per ton. At the highest point, it rose to as much as thirty-eight gold coins.
Although there are thirteen chambers of commerce in the United Kingdom of Nozdormu. A lot of money has been made through other business channels and some special resources rich in the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom - such as rare forest trees and flowers and special animals and plants in the swamps, but it is only spent on food imports. , which reached 1.37 million gold coins last year, accounting for more than a quarter of the entire kingdom's total support.
According to the preliminary agreement reached between Xu Yi and Gaza, the various grains transported by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce from the Principality of Standing will be priced slightly lower than those of the Candela Empire.
Taking wheat as an example, the price given by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was actually only twenty-eight gold coins per ton, which was a full six gold coins lower than the price from the Candela Empire.
In addition, the prices of other types of grains are also lower, if calculated. If Nozdormu's Commercial United Kingdom switches to importing food from the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, it will be able to spend at least 300,000 gold coins every year.
Gaza immediately agreed to this cooperation with Xu Yi without any consideration.
But he was very confused. The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce transported food from the Principality of Standing, which was more than 5,000 kilometers away, but the price was much lower than that of the neighboring Candela Empire. If shipping costs were included, wouldn't this be true? Losing money to death
However, Xu Yi did not explain the reason to Gaza. He only assured Gaza that the food shipped by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce would not have any problems and would definitely be able to withstand the various tests of the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom.
Gaza is somewhat skeptical. But it was inconvenient to say anything more.
Anyway, cooperation in food is only a less important part of the cooperation between the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
If there is indeed nothing wrong with the food shipped by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom will be able to have a lot of expenses left. Everything is a good thing.
Besides, there was no need for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to lie to him about this kind of thing, as it would be of no benefit to anyone.
Gaza believed that Xu Yi would never do such a mindless thing.
This meeting between Xu Yi and Gaza can only be regarded as a very preliminary contact.
The most pressing issue facing Gaza, or the Commercial United Kingdom of Nozdormu, is actually only one, and that is to build a qualified deep-water port as soon as possible.
Otherwise, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce's large-scale cargo magic ship cannot dock, and it will be difficult for the New Flying Chamber of Commerce to truly get in touch with the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom, and subsequent cooperation will naturally not be carried out.
As for Gaza’s previous talk of building a road from the Commercial United Kingdom of Nozdormu directly to the Kingdom of Luersun, and eventually merged into the Kingdom of Luersun’s road transportation network, thereby also directly connecting to the Principality of Standing, this idea is at least in the future. It is simply impossible to achieve now, so naturally it can only be put on hold for the time being.
After the meeting, Xu Yi conducted a week-long inspection in the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom at the invitation of Gaza.
The area of the United Commercial Kingdom of Nozdormu is actually slightly larger than that of the Principality of Standing. It is not as good as the Kingdom of Lampali and the Kingdom of Lulson. It is also a small country in the southeast corner of the Sainz continent. If you want to conduct a preliminary inspection, you can Much easier.
Xu Yi came here for the first time, and it was true that he did not conduct an in-depth investigation. Instead, he just took a magic airship and circled around the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom for a week, and conducted a thorough investigation of the entire Nozdormu Commercial Kingdom. Gain a basic understanding of the environment in the United Kingdom.
After the inspection, Xu Yi's evaluation of the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom improved slightly.
This part of the improvement did not come from the geographical environment of Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom. On the contrary, after coming here in person and seeing the swamps and rainforests that can be seen almost everywhere in Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom, Xu Yi also had a deep understanding of this aspect. The evaluation is actually lower.
The reason why the overall evaluation of the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom has been slightly improved is because of the thirteen chambers of commerce that control the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom, represented by the Warsaw Chamber of Commerce.
Although these thirteen chambers of commerce control the overall situation of the United Commercial Kingdom of Nozdormu, they are closer to the merchants after all, which makes it particularly easy for Xu Yi to communicate with them, instead of having to communicate with the Lampali Kingdom and Ruhr. The noble ministers of the Xun Kingdom were so strenuous in communicating.
Both parties appeared to be extremely pragmatic when discussing cooperation matters, with almost no nonsense and high efficiency. In just one week, many details of cooperation were settled.
And within just a few days, the Warsaw Chamber of Commerce cooperated with three other chambers of commerce to finalize the location of a deep-water port, and at the same time prepared the initial construction materials and corresponding manpower.
Such efficiency even amazed Xu Yi.
Of course, because the United Kingdom of Nozdormu Commerce currently does not possess materials such as cement, concrete, steel bars, etc., nor does it have the construction engineering technology of the Amri Chamber of Commerce, it can only build a traditional Sainz Continent at best. Port, and there is no way to build a strong enough port like the ports of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce in the Principality of Standing and outside the Black Rice Wasteland.
Xu Yi didn't care much about this. Anyway, as long as the large-scale cargo magic ship of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce could dock, it would be enough.
As for what happens next, you can think about it slowly.
A week passed quickly, and Xu Yi finally ended his short-term inspection in the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom.
When the magic airship slowly lifted into the sky carrying Xu Yi and the Xinfei merchants, and soon turned the group of farewell representatives from the United Kingdom of Nozdormu into a bunch of small black dots on the ground, the people around Xu Yi Evita suddenly frowned slightly, glanced at Xu Yi, and stopped talking.
"What? If you have anything to say, just say it. Why are you holding it back?" Xu Yi said with a smile.
Evita was silent for a moment and said softly: "President, I have always been curious, why do you insist on cooperating with the United Kingdom of Commerce in Nozdormu? This place is too far away from our merchants. Even if you take a magical ride A round trip by airship would take several days. If transported by a large cargo magic ship, it would probably take at least a month. I think this is not a suitable distance for cooperation. "
"Well, I also think it's too far and it's really inconvenient." Xu Yi nodded.
Evita was startled: "Then why did you..."
Xu Yi spread his hands: "Because I want to open up more markets. Don't you think that if our chamber of commerce only focuses on the small countries around us, the prospects will not be broad?"
Evita frowned deeper.
"But if it is to expand the market, I think the Candela Empire is a better choice. And didn't you have this plan a long time ago? Why have you given up now?"
"Who said I gave up?" Xu Yi asked. "There is no contradiction between considering investing in the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom and exploring the market of the Candela Empire. They can be done at the same time."
"But last time you asked the escort fleet to attack the Kandra Empire's maritime fleet. Didn't you completely offend the Kandra Empire?"
Xu Yi shrugged: "Nothing, this is just a signal to the Candela Empire."
"Signal?" Evita looked confused. "What signal
Xu Yi smiled and did not answer.
What signal
Of course, tell the Candela Empire, look, your fleet is already so lagging behind, and it is simply vulnerable to the newly developed magic warships of our New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
If the Candela Empire was smart enough, they would certainly be able to smell the message Xu Yi wanted to convey from this skirmish.
Then it is obvious what they should and will do next.
Xu Yi smiled and looked through the window of the magic airship towards the northwest in the direction of the Candela Empire, with a hint of hope in his heart.
This huge and ancient empire should give a satisfactory response. (To be continued...)
