Seeing Twisty turn around after throwing away the invitations, Xu Yi already had a preliminary plan in mind.
"Give me the annual financial report that Sebastian submitted earlier." Xu Yidao.
Twisty didn't need to rummage at all. He directly pulled out a thick report from the next layer of the cabinet and handed it to Xu Yi.
This is also one of Twisty's advantages as an elf. Her memory is extremely good. She can remember everything clearly no matter where it is placed. As long as Xu Yi opens his mouth, she can find Xu Yi's needs as soon as possible. s things.
Moreover, she also arranged all the documents and other items in an extremely orderly manner. Even if Xu Yi came to find them in person, he would be able to find the documents he was looking for without much effort.
Coupled with her obedient and quiet personality, it can be said that she has all the necessary qualities of an excellent secretary.
What's more, she has a sweet appearance and is very eye-catching. If she were on earth, she would be the perfect secretary candidate for any boss.
Xu Yi was not very cold towards Twisty at first, thinking that she was deliberately arranged by Elder Lisania, so his attitude towards her was lukewarm.
But after spending more than half a year together, Xu Yi has gradually become accustomed to her being around.
Sometimes Xu Yi even thinks to himself that if Twisty leaves now, I'm afraid it will take some time for him to adapt.
Shaking his head to get rid of these chaotic thoughts in his mind, Xu Yi focused on the annual financial report in his hand.
Although it is only early December, according to past practice, Sebastian, the financial director of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, will submit an annual financial report of the Chamber of Commerce at this time every year.
This report is not intended to be the final annual financial tally. It's just an evaluation report conducted by Sebastian based on the financial situation of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce within this year. The content not only includes some annual financial statistics. Also included is an evaluation of the overall financial situation and financial projections for the coming year.
Although it is only a rough assessment, it is very important for Xu Yi to designate the Chamber of Commerce's plan for the coming year, so she has always attached great importance to this report.
It can be seen from this report that as of November this year, the total profit of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the eleven months of the year has exceeded 30 million gold coins.
Since December has entered the cold winter season, it is the peak sales season for Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's household magic machines every year, so the monthly profit has always been second only to the two months in early summer throughout the year, and it is conservatively estimated to exceed three million gold coins.
If you calculate it this way. The total profit of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce this year will exceed 33 million gold coins, an increase of nearly 30% compared to last year. It can be said that the development is as smooth as ever.
However, if you look at the breakdown of the report, you will find that in fact, Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's profit growth this year is mainly concentrated on military magic machinery.
Compared with last year, the profits from military magic machinery increased by more than four million gold coins, accounting for more than half of the increase in total profits for the year.
And according to the current situation, as long as the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can increase production capacity next year, the profit increase in military magic machinery next year will be even more substantial.
Therefore, during the internal discussions at the high-level meeting of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, Kennard and others proposed that the chamber of commerce should invest more energy in military magic machinery next year. Try our best to increase relevant production capacity, so as to achieve a substantial increase in profits of the chamber of commerce.
However, Xu Yi rejected this proposal.
Xu also said. Although it is inevitable to increase investment in military magic machinery, the main focus of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce will still be focused on civilian magic machinery, and this will not change.
According to Xu Yi's estimation, next year the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will officially open the doors to the two empires, the Candela Empire and the Malo Empire, and various civilian magic machines will enter the markets of the two empires. Therefore, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will usher in various There is a huge demand for civilian magic machines, especially household magic machines, and they should prepare early.
Although others did not doubt Xu Yi's judgment, many senior executives of the Chamber of Commerce were still somewhat shaken in the face of the huge profits brought by military magic machinery.
Xu Yi now wants to shift other people's attention from military magic machinery to civilian magic machinery. He must first change the minds of these people inside.
"Twisty, you asked Sebastian for financial knowledge before. How are you doing now?" Xu Yi asked.
Twisty hesitated, seeming a little embarrassed.
“I only learned the basics, but I’m still far from it.”
"Then do you understand this report?" Xu Yi asked again.
"Yeah, no problem." Twisty nodded. "Director Sebastian first taught me about financial reporting."
"That's good. Come on, come here." Xu Yi waved to Twisty, motioning for her to stand next to him, then pointed to a page in the financial report in his hand and said: "Do you understand what this means? "
Twisty glanced at Xu Yi in surprise and replied: "This is a description of the financial change trend of the Chamber of Commerce from June to November. Judging from the data curve, there is an obvious trend in August and September. It increased, and then began to decline significantly in October. Director Sebas analyzed that this was because the Luersun Kingdom ordered a large number of military magic machines and other related supplies from the Chamber of Commerce in August and September.”
"Well, that's right." Xu Yi nodded. "But did you notice a problem? This curve doesn't look very reasonable, does it?"
"Well... Director Sebas said that this was due to the impact of the war between the Luersun Kingdom and the Kingdom of Kandila, and it cannot be used as a reference under normal circumstances."
"He's right. Twisty, I now ask you to produce two reports similar to this report. They are about the profit analysis report of the Chamber of Commerce in military magic machinery and civilian magic machinery. You can do it. "?" Xu Yi asked.
Twisty looked at Xu Yi in surprise, and did not ask why. Instead, he pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "I can't make it as detailed as the report produced by Director Sebastian."
"You are not required to make it exactly the same as this report. It only requires you to express the most basic meaning. Can you do it?"
Twisty frowned slightly. After thinking seriously for a while, he nodded: "There should be no problem."
"That's good." Xu Yi stuffed the financial report in Twisty's arms. "This is a test of your financial ability. When you return to the Moon Shadow Tribe in the future, Elder Lisanya will definitely let you take charge of this aspect. You may as well get used to it as soon as possible."
"Yes, President." Twisty nodded in agreement.
"By the way, when it comes to your return to the Moon Shadow Tribe in the future, I suddenly thought of a question, when will Yanis come back?" Xu Yi suddenly asked.
Twisty blinked: "Well... I don't know."
"Then you contact Elder Lisanya for me. Just say that I miss Yanis. If there is nothing wrong with her, let her come back."
Twisty looked at Xu Yi in silence for a while, then asked with a slight hesitation: "President, actually I have always wanted to ask you a question. Are you... really in love with Yanis?"
"Why are you asking this question?" Xu Yi asked in surprise.
"Because I'm really curious," Twisty replied honestly. "We have been taught since childhood that humans and elves are two completely different races. Humans have always been hostile to us elves. Let us try not to have contact with humans or even appear in front of the elves. But I think... Yani Si must have really fallen in love with you, President, so I want to know, President, do you love Yanis?"
"The education you received in the clan is outdated. If it were done now, not even the elder Lisania would tell you to try not to come into contact with humans anymore, right?"
"Well, the elder now requires us to contact as many humans as possible and try to learn some advantages from humans that our elves lack. She sent me here in the hope that I can learn a lot of good things from you, the president."
"Oh, Elder Lisanya still thinks highly of me." Xu Yi smiled and continued: "Let's go back to the question just now. Do you think I love Yanis... This question is not easy to answer, because we humans are very fond of me. The definition of love is different from that of your elves. I can only tell you that Yanis is very important to me now. If anyone else wants to hurt her, I will never agree to it. I will stay with her for the rest of my life. Living together forever, she is already one of my most important family members, do you understand?”
"I can probably understand." Twisty nodded. "But Sir, your wife is not just Yanis, right? Haven't you always said that Miss Steele is the most important person in your heart?"
Xu Yi was a little embarrassed, coughed slightly and said: "Well... Steele is indeed the most important to me, but Agnes is also very important."
"Really?" Twisty seemed a little doubtful. "We elves will only have one life-and-death partner in our lives, but you humans can have more than one?"
Xu Yi became even more embarrassed: "It's not all like this. After all, people are different."
"Oh..." Twisty looked like he didn't understand. After thinking for a moment, he smiled and said: "Okay, Mr. President, answer your question just now. Yanis is in the most critical period now. , I don’t think the elder will let her come back now.”
"What is the most critical period?" Xu Yi was very puzzled. "I have asked Elder Lisania this question many times, but she has always refused to tell me. It's really strange. Is there anything that needs to be kept mysterious?"
Twisty showed a slightly naughty smile: "President, you don't have to worry. If nothing happens, you will know in half a year."
Seeing that Twisty also had no comment, Xu Yi rolled his eyes helplessly.
"Well, tell Elder Lisanya for me. If she continues to refuse to tell me why she won't let Yanis come back, I will refuse to provide support to your tribe's territory in the southwest of the Sac Kingdom."
Twisty's eyes widened, with a hint of shock and anger on his face.
"Mr. President, you... you are pretending to be a public servant for personal gain!"
Xu Yi laughed, thinking that I am just pretending to be a public servant for personal gain, what can you do to me? (To be continued...)
