The happy time of reuniting with Steele was always short-lived. After spending a whole day in the Azshara tribe, Xu Yi returned to Nissi Port. ,
As soon as the magic airship landed, a pure silver magic car drove crazily from a distance and stopped directly in front of the magic airship.
Count Kompany struggled to get out of the back seat of the magic glue car and trotted all the way to the hatch. He looked longingly at the slowly opening hatch. When he saw Xu Yi's face, he felt a long sigh. The ground breathed a sigh of relief.
"President Xu, you are finally back."
Xu Yi couldn't help but laugh: "What? Lord City Lord, are you still afraid that I will run away?"
"No, no, no, that's not the case." Count Kompany wiped the sweat from his forehead and made an invitation gesture to Xu Yi. "Please come with me. According to the news we just received, His Majesty the King is only twenty kilometers away from here. I also ask President Xu to come with me to meet His Majesty outside the city."
"good."
Xu Yi responded, turned around and explained to everyone on the magic airship, and then got into his magic car with Count Kompany.
The magic car started quickly and drove towards the north of Nixi City.
Seeing Nixi City being left behind, Xu Yi asked Count Company next to him: "Lord City Lord, did the latest news from His Majesty the King reveal the reason for summoning me so urgently?"
"This... I didn't say it in detail. But since His Majesty attaches so much importance to it and even came here in person to meet with you, President Xu, I think it must be a very important matter."
"I understand this. But I have thought about it carefully in the past two days. There are no surprises in the various cooperation matters between our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Luersun Kingdom. Even if there are some small mistakes, I think there should be It would be better if His Majesty the King takes action himself." Xu Yi frowned.
"Haha. I don't know much about this. But President Xu, our previous cooperation was certainly smooth. But that doesn't mean that future cooperation will be as smooth, right? Maybe His Majesty wants to discuss some new things with you, President Xu, this time. I want to cooperate with you, so to show my sincerity, I came to see you in person.”
"Huh?" Xu Yi narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Count Kompany with a friendly smile.
From Count Kompany's words, he keenly sensed a hint of information revealed in them.
So... His Majesty King Trutz should want to discuss new cooperation with himself.
This is not surprising, because compared to the Lampali Kingdom, the cooperation between the Luersun Kingdom and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce lacks a lot.
For example, the Lampali Kingdom has now begun cooperation with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce on magic machine tools, and there are several steel mills in the Lampali Kingdom. This is something that the Luersun Kingdom does not have, and the most important point is that the Lampali Kingdom has had some cooperation with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in military magic machinery a long time ago.
Although with the withdrawal of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce from the Lampali Kingdom, the cooperation between the two parties in military magic machinery has temporarily stalled and there has been no progress. After all, the Lampali Kingdom has a foundation in this area and has opened up with other countries. the gap.
For example, the Magic Repeating Crossbow, a relatively simple military magic machine originally designed by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, has now become standard equipment in all armies in the Lampali Kingdom.
Coupled with the several military weapons and armor processing factories left behind by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the army in the Lampali Kingdom has become the most well-equipped army in the surrounding countries, and its combat effectiveness is completely different from before.
The surrounding countries are obviously well aware of this.
The Lursun Kingdom is a kingdom on the same level as the Lampali Kingdom. It's normal to be concerned about this.
This time His Majesty King Trutz showed such sincerity, and it is very likely that he came to discuss cooperation with Xu Yi in military magic machinery.
"If he really made this request, how should he respond?" Xu Yi frowned and fell into thought.
According to his original intention, of course he just hopes to promote household magic machines on the mainland, so as to improve the lives of people on the mainland.
But now that military magic machinery has been developed, with its powerful power, it will definitely not escape the attention and attention of other countries.
Of course, Xu Yi had already been mentally prepared for this, but in his plan, he had to be very careful when it came to military magic machinery.
The most basic requirement is that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce must maintain complete suppression over other forces in terms of military magic machinery. The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce must not be threatened by selling military magic machinery to other forces.
Xu Yi had always controlled this point very well before. Only part of the military magic machinery was sold to other countries, and the most important and core parts were still unique to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, which ensured that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escort team had an absolute lead in combat effectiveness.
However, as the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has become more and more sophisticated in the research and development of military magic machines, Xu Yi has begun to open up some higher-end military magic machines to the outside world in small quantities.
For example, it previously sold three frigates to the Candela Empire Navy, and equipped these three frigates with several magic cannons and small magic rocket launchers. It can be regarded as the most high-end military magic machinery currently sold by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to other forces.
The Lampali Kingdom does not have a coastal territory, so it does not have high demand for these. However, along the southern coast of the Luersun Kingdom, maybe King Trutz also wants to buy a few frigates for fun
With such questions, the magic car took Xu Yi to a post station in the north of Nixi City and stopped.
He, Count Company and his entourage waited for less than twenty minutes to get off the bus when they saw a slight puff of smoke and dust rising from the north of the road next to the inn. After a while, they saw a row of magic cars. The convoy formed quickly drove over.
Seeing this motorcade, Xu Yi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Although magic cars have long been popular in the Luersun Kingdom, His Majesty King Trutz has always maintained the tradition and always rides a traditional carriage when traveling.
Of course, this is also deeply related to his extremely expensive carriage.
His Majesty King Trutz rarely leaves the city of Kulaka when traveling such short distances. Riding in his specially customized carriage with incredible comfort is obviously a better choice.
But Xu Yi had already revealed it to him before. Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is developing a specially customized super luxurious and extremely safe magic car. It is specially supplied to big figures like King Trutz to meet their travel needs.
At that time, King Trutz was very happy to say that once the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce launched this special magic car, he would definitely customize one as soon as possible.
However, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has not really developed such a special magic car. King Trutz took the initiative to ride in the magic car this time.
In addition to pursuing speed, it is also a way to show Xu Yi's sincerity.
However, Xu Yi firmly believes in a saying, showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing.
King Trutz suddenly showed such obvious sincerity to himself, so what he was pursuing must not be so easily satisfied.
Xu Yi frowned slightly as he watched the convoy approach. When the first magic car stopped outside the inn, he and Count Kompany greeted it together, but he still put on a smile on his face.
"President Xu, long time no see." King Trutz got out of the back seat of the magic car in the middle. When he looked up and saw Xu Yi, he walked over with a big smile.
Xu Yi quickly walked over, bowed to King Trutz, and said respectfully: "I have met your Majesty. Your Majesty's coming in person really makes me feel uneasy."
King Trutz laughed and patted Xu Yi on the shoulder: "President Xu. You are not a citizen of our Kingdom of Luersun, so you don't need to be so reserved in front of me. Let's go in. Let's go in and talk."
Xu Yi followed King Trutz into the inn again in confusion.
King Trutz sat down on a table that had been cleared out a long time ago, and then pointed to the opposite side to signal Xu Yi to sit opposite him.
Xu Yi pretended to decline and sat down.
King Trutz tilted his head, and the guards he brought immediately understood and drove everyone out of the inn, even Count Company.
King Trutz and Xu Yi were the only two people left in the huge inn.
After everyone retreated, King Trutz glanced at Xu Yi up and down and said with a smile: "President Xu, I wonder if your trip to the Candela Empire went smoothly this time?"
Xu Yi smiled and replied: "Thanks to your majesty's concern, everything went smoothly."
"Oh? That's good." King Trutz chuckled, pondered for a moment, suddenly patted the table lightly, and sighed: "President Xu, I tried to contact you this time but couldn't. Finally Made me realize an important issue.”
"what is the problem?"
"No wonder your New Flying Chamber of Commerce is vigorously promoting the erection of magic signal towers in the Principality of Standing, and now the Kingdom of Lampali is following suit. Once this magic signal tower is successfully erected, it will allow people thousands of miles apart to communicate with each other. Being able to talk at any time is infinitely more convenient than the current situation. If we also have a magic signal tower installed in the Luersun Kingdom, I don't have to come here to meet you. At least, I don't need to contact you. It’s easier, isn’t it?”
Xu Yi didn't expect that King Trutz's first topic would be the magic signal tower, and couldn't help but be stunned.
"This... If your Majesty is willing, our New Flying Chamber of Commerce will be very happy to cooperate with your country to set up a magic signal tower in the Luersun Kingdom and build a magic communication network."
"Really? Well, President Xu, this is what we have decided. In a few days, I will send someone to discuss with your Chamber of Commerce in detail about erecting a magic signal tower in our kingdom. I hope you can cooperate as much as possible." Tru. King Ci patted the table again and said seriously.
Xu Yi was startled, he didn't expect King Trutz to be so resolute, it was settled.
But after thinking about it, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. He nodded and said, "Okay, this is exactly what our Chamber of Commerce is currently trying to promote, and we will definitely do our best to cooperate."
King Trutz did not express concern about the magic signal tower like the previous noble lords in the Lampali Kingdom, so Xu Yi naturally did not need to ask.
From this point of view, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's promotion of the Magic Signal Tower during the previous period still had a certain effect.
Of course, King Trutz must have conducted detailed investigations on these issues, otherwise it would not have been so easy to determine.
Seeing that Xu Yi agreed readily, King Trutz nodded with satisfaction, paused, and continued: "The magic signal tower is just a small matter. The main thing I am discussing with you this time is another matter."
Xu Yi was not surprised at all, and looked at King Trutz quietly, waiting for him to speak.
King Trutz pondered for a moment, then suddenly glanced to the northwest, and then said: "President Xu, you have been far away during this time. I am afraid you are not aware of a major event that has happened recently."
"Oh? Your Majesty, please clarify."
King Trutz turned to look at Xu Yi, narrowing his eyes slightly with a serious expression.
"Half a month ago, the Lampali Kingdom declared war on the Sak Kingdom. Now it has captured three southern cities of the Sak Kingdom and occupied nearly one-third of the territory of the southern province of the Sak Kingdom." (To be continued.) )
