Of course, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is not idle either.
Although developing the maritime trade route between the Principality of Standing and the Candela Empire in the southern waters of the Endless Sea is of great significance to the future strategic planning of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, it is far from the only thing that the New Flying Chamber of Commerce needs to do.
It can even be said that the importance of this matter in Xu Yi's mind is not even among the top three.
Because even if they are developing the internal markets of the two empires, in comparison, the Maro Empire, which has no conflicts with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and has no worries about introducing magic machinery industry into the country, has done much better in this regard. .
While the Candela Empire was still debating and hesitating about purchasing farmland magic machinery from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the Malo Empire had made its fifth request to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to purchase a large amount of farmland magic machinery last month.
In the first half of this year alone, official orders from the Ministry of Agriculture of the Malo Empire for various farm magic machines reached as high as 85,000 units, with a total amount exceeding 5.7 million gold coins.
At the same time, there are also a large number of orders from the people of the Malo Empire, that is, the major nobles.
Although the total amount is currently far less than the huge official order from the Ministry of Agriculture of the Malo Empire, the growth rate is extremely alarming.
Before the autumn harvest last year, the major nobles of the Malo Empire, including the Marquis of Southgaard, placed orders for only more than 2,000 farmland magic machines. After the spring harvest in the first half of this year, the number suddenly increased to more than 20,000. Taiwan, the total amount suddenly exceeded two million gold coins.
And as the Maro Empire became more and more accepting of these farmland magic machines from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, more and more nobles began to order various farmland magic machines.
According to statistical estimates from the marketing department of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce, by the end of this year. This number will most likely exceed 50,000 units. The total amount is close to four million gold coins.
If that counts. The total sales volume of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce may exceed 10 million gold coins just by selling farmland magic machinery to the Maro Empire.
Even if the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce takes the initiative to bear part of the freight to the Malo Empire, thereby increasing the cost, with the consistently high profits of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the net income gained from it will be at least more than four million gold coins.
In addition to farmland magic machines, various household magic machines are also rapidly becoming popular in the Maro Empire.
As summer is about to begin, Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has received orders for magic air conditioners and magic refrigerators from the Maro Empire, totaling more than 7,000 units, with a total amount of more than 200,000 gold coins.
This number is small compared to the millions or even thousands of gold coins that farmland magic machinery can cost. But this is just an order from several Malo Empire nobles who are familiar with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, including the Marquis of Southgaard.
According to various messages received by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's office in the Malo Empire during this period, once summer really enters, orders in this area will definitely skyrocket.
Coupled with other types of household magic machines, the total order amount from the Maro Empire is estimated to be at least more than two million gold coins.
Calculated in this way, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce only started to develop the market in the Malo Empire in the second half of the year before last. In less than two years, the revenue this market has brought to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce this year has exceeded 5 million gold coins. .
And this is only the development of a small part of the market in the Malo Empire. If it is developed as maturely as the Lampali Kingdom, the benefits this huge market will bring to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will undoubtedly be extremely amazing.
The reason why the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will formulate different plans is based on the different situations of the two empires. Of course it is because these two empires are the two most important countries on the Sainz continent.
But for Xu Yi, who is determined to spread the magic industry throughout the Sainz continent, this is certainly not enough.
So in addition to a series of development plans for the two empires. What Xu Yi pays more attention to is how to develop other countries on the mainland simultaneously.
Several years ago, because the Commercial United Kingdom of Nozdormu came to the door, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce created a channel connecting the southeast corner of the continent, including the Commercial United Kingdom of Nozdormu, through the waterway opened in the southern part of the Endless Sea. country’s passage.
Now a few years have passed, and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has laid a solid foundation in the United Kingdom of Nozdormu. The magic industry brought by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has also exerted great influence on the United Kingdom of Nozdormu and several surrounding countries. It had a very obvious impact.
Last year, Nerval led the first fleet of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce's transport fleet from the Principality of Standing and headed north. The original main purpose was to explore the sea channel connecting the northern seaports of the Maro Empire, but along the way he encountered several enemies along the way. The small countries got in touch and successfully aroused their interest in magical machinery.
According to the plan, next week, Nerval will lead the first fleet of the transport fleet to once again march towards the port of Stratholme in the north of the Malo Empire.
This time, in addition to transporting a batch of goods to Stratholme Port, the most important task Nevaval was responsible for was to strengthen exchanges with these small countries along the way.
If everything goes well, Xu Yi is willing to build several small magic industrial bases in these small countries.
In addition to this sea passage, the Sark Kingdom has reached a private agreement with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to open a land passage along the western coast of the Sark Kingdom to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, allowing the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to directly pass through the Black Rice Wasteland. Enter the coastal land to the west of the Sark Kingdom, and then reach the Kingdom of Ahn'Qiraj in the north of the Sark Kingdom.
A sea route, combined with this land passage, will allow the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to easily establish direct contact with several countries in the northwest corner of the Sainz continent.
In this way, judging from the map, the only countries that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce cannot easily contact are the countries to the east and northeast of Sainz continent.
And this is indeed a problem for Xu Yi.
Because judging from the map, it is undoubtedly more convenient and direct to enter these countries through land, and the distance is also close.
But this is bound to pass through the Candela Empire, and given the delicate relationship between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Candela Empire, this is obviously a very unrealistic choice.
If land is not feasible, the only option is to consider the sea route.
However, if you take the sea route, it is almost equivalent to walking around the entire Sainz continent, and the time and other costs required will skyrocket.
Moreover, if the distance is too far, it will also cause great obstacles for Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to respond at any time.
Before it was temporarily difficult to solve the big problem of crossing the Candela Empire, and for the sake of longer-term considerations, the solution Xu Yi proposed after careful consideration was to directly establish a base belonging to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the corresponding place, which is equivalent to putting A clone went over to handle various matters that were too far away from the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
To put it in a very cliché way, that is to open a branch base...
However, it is not that easy to open a branch base, because first you must ensure that the branch base has sufficient self-protection capabilities, and you must also ensure that there is a smooth connection between the main base and the branch base, so that the branch base can run smoothly The land survived, developed and expanded to complete the responsibilities of the sub-base.
However, the current strength of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is not enough to support a branch base even more than 5,000 kilometers away from the main base.
So this involves something that Xu Yi values the most, and in his opinion is the most basic thing that can change this continent and the world, and it is also something that must be solved first.
The name of this thing reflects this, because it is called "infrastructure".
In Xu Yi's view, what really hinders the development of this continent, and is also the problem that most affects his promotion of the industrialization process of Sainz Continent, is that the infrastructure on Sainz Continent is really poor.
Of course, this cannot be blamed on the continent itself, because before Xu Yi traveled over, this continent was originally in a situation similar to the semi-feudal and semi-slavery period on Earth. In addition to having magic, a civilization that is completely different from that on Earth. , other aspects are extremely backward, and naturally there is no so-called infrastructure construction.
Now, after many years of planning and the strong cooperation of the Armli Chamber of Commerce, at least in terms of transportation, including the Kingdom of Lampali, the Principality of Standing, the Kingdom of Luersun and several other small surrounding countries, they have obtained Significant improvement.
The first is road paving. The total mileage of roads in the Lampali Kingdom alone has exceeded 50,000 kilometers this year. Not only is every city connected by a road, but even every town is also connected by a road. The road situation has changed dramatically. Override general changes.
Secondly, it is transportation.
In this regard, with the widespread popularity of various passenger and cargo magic cars of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, traditional horse-drawn carriages have basically been completely replaced in the countries in the southwest corner of the Sainz continent.
Coupled with the large-scale paving of roads, if you travel among these countries now, the time spent on the journey has been greatly improved compared to before, and the comfort level has also been greatly improved.
Because transportation is more convenient, people in these countries are more willing to leave their homes and travel to distant places than before, making population mobility very common and making it more convenient for businesses that require a large number of manpower, including the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. The New Magic Industry Chamber of Commerce is recruiting.
With the development over the years, the countries in the southwest corner of Sainz's continent have formed magic industrial zones one after another around several centers.
Compared with the two emerging areas of the Candela Empire, these magic industrial zones are more complete and mature in all aspects.
According to Xu Yi's plan, this kind of magic industrial zones will be everywhere on this continent in the future, and the influence of the magic industry will reach the entire continent.
The key to achieving this, in addition to transportation, is an equally important factor, which is communication. (To be continued...)
