Chapter 98: Retirement
"Hey, Heinze, have you ever heard that after someone was beaten, he still had to come up and put on a smile and say that he wanted to cooperate with the other party?" Xu Yi put down the official document in his hand and smiled at Heinze on the side.
"I've never seen a person like this, but if it's a country, it's not unusual at all. Heinze glanced at the document and laughed. "It seems that you were right before, the Candela Empire is so cheap, if you don't beat them well, they won't pay attention to it. ”
"I could have guessed what they would have liked, but I didn't expect them to react so quickly. Xu Yi shook his head. "Originally, I thought I would have to beat them up a few times before they would learn to behave. But I didn't expect that this was just a beating, and they reacted immediately, which was really beyond my expectations. ”
"What do you think the Candela Empire can rely on to survive on this continent for thousands of years?" Heinze glanced at Xu Yi. "Sue you, the Candela Empire is big, and there are a lot of capable people in it. There must be many of them who have already discovered the potential of our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and will value us, but now they just take this opportunity to show their appearance. ”
"That's right. On this official document, it was actually pointed out that His Majesty the Emperor of the Candela Empire was pointed out, that is to say, this time our small chamber of commerce finally entered the sight of His Majesty the Venerable Emperor. Speaking of this, Xu Yi shook his head and sighed lightly: "Seriously, I'm really not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing." ”
Heinze stretched and stood up, yawning beside him.
"Alright. Whether it's a good thing or not. It's a bad thing. It's none of my business now. Anyway, I'm officially retiring today, and with you as the president of the Chamber of Commerce, I have nothing to worry about. Starting tomorrow, I'm going to enjoy my leisurely retirement. ”
Looking at Heinze with a relaxed expression, Xu Yi showed a heartfelt smile.
Heinze, the most important partner who co-founded the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce with him, finally decided to officially retire today, that is, on his 55th birthday.
If this age is placed on the earth, it can be said to be in the prime of life. Far from the age of retirement.
But for the Sainz continent, where the average human menstrual period is not even 40 years old, the 55-year-old Heinze can already be regarded as an advanced age.
In fact, Hai Inze had already had the idea of retiring in the previous years, but because the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has been at an important juncture of rapid development, he can't make up his mind.
And this year, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce finally officially opened the huge market of the Maro Empire and the Candela Empire, which made the development of the entire Chamber of Commerce take an extremely huge step forward, and also made him basically feel at ease, so he decided to really retire.
When he and Xu Yi discussed this decision in private, they also told Xu Yi another important reason for his decision to retire.
Heinze felt that he was just an ordinary grocery store owner in a small town, although he had improved a lot over the years. But in terms of knowledge, vision, etc., it is still obvious that it has not been able to keep up with the current Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Staying in the Chamber of Commerce will not make any difference.
He didn't want to stay as a useless person all the time, and maybe even become a drag, so he decided to retire altogether.
Although Xu Yi firmly denied his idea, claiming that even if he stayed in the Chamber of Commerce and did nothing, it would be the greatest help to the Chamber of Commerce, because with his qualifications and prestige in the Chamber of Commerce, as well as his good relationship with many people, he could help the Chamber of Commerce develop smoothly in many ways, but Heinze still rejected Xu Yi's dissuasion and resolutely said that he wanted to retire.
Seeing that Heince was determined, Xu Yi couldn't persuade him anymore, so he could only finally agree to his retirement decision.
Starting tomorrow, Heinze will officially step down as the vice president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, no longer hold any positions within the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and only retain his status as a shareholder, but will not participate in any decision-making of the Chamber of Commerce.
This is of course a good thing for Heinze, because with his status as the largest shareholder of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce except Xu Yi, the minimum annual income will also exceed three million gold coins, which is enough to make him one of the richest people in the Lampari Kingdom.
With such strong financial resources, you can live your life as you want after retirement.
For example, he had already planned with his wife, Aunt Rhea, that when he finished retiring, he would start to travel around the continent of Sainz to see all kinds of legendary beautiful scenery.
For this reason, he even used his personal property to buy a magic airship from the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, and at the same time learned the flight operation of the magic airship himself, just to rely on the magic airship to travel more conveniently.
At the same time, in order to give his old partner the best trip, Xu Yi also deliberately drew a design drawing of the magic RV himself, and designated the Magic Research Institute and the Magic Machine Tool R&D Center to develop it as much as possible.
This new magic caravan was drawn by Xu Yi based on the concept of an RV on Earth, but it is more luxurious, and the estimated cost price alone is as high as 90,000 gold coins.
According to Xu Yi's idea, once this magic RV is officially developed and enters mass production, it will definitely be welcomed by those aristocrats who especially pursue travel enjoyment, and the prospect should not be underestimated.
Therefore, this is not just designed for Heinze alone, but also adds a new profit growth point to the magic locomotive department of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
"If only this magic RV had it now, then I could stop and go with Rhea all the way, and stop when I want to eat, drink and sleep, how convenient. Hearing Xu Yi mention the magic RV again, Heinze couldn't help but show a yearning look.
Xu Yi shrugged his shoulders: "No way, the mechanical structure of this thing is much more complex than that of ordinary magic locomotives, and because it has to take into account the needs of the home, there are more details that need to be considered in all aspects, so it is not so easy to develop successfully." ”
"Well, I know, it's just emotional. Heinze nodded. "Anyway, in the first two years, Rhea and I don't plan to go too far, just go around these nearby countries. These nearby countries are full of roads, and we can run a lot of places even with a magic car, which is enough. ”
"Well, two years at most, no, it should only take one year, this magic RV can be successfully developed, and the first one will definitely be you and Sister-in-law Rhea's. Xu Yi said with a smile.
"Haha, okay, it's a big deal that I'll use a magic airship. Heinze laughed twice, then looked left and right, then walked to the window, glanced outside, took a deep breath, turned around and patted Xu Yi's shoulder, and said, "Okay, Xu Yi, after I leave, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will completely look at you alone." You...... Be more careful yourself. ”
Xu Yi smiled and nodded: "I will." ”
Heinze patted Xu Yi's shoulder again, then looked around with nostalgia, opened the door and walked out.
Watching the door slowly close, Xu Yi felt a strong emotion in his heart.
It has been more than nine years since he decided to create the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
Some people say that ten years is already a major turning point in life.
For a chamber of commerce, it doesn't take ten years, just nine years is enough to make it grow from nothing, from weak to strong, and even from strong again to weak or even completely disappear.
The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has been able to develop smoothly into what it is now in the past nine years, although Xu Yi can claim that he has made the greatest contribution to it, but if it weren't for Heinze's strong support for him at the beginning, I am afraid that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce would have been very difficult to even establish at the beginning.
Over the years, although Heinze's role in the Chamber of Commerce has become smaller and smaller, so that many other chamber of commerce executives who later joined the Chamber of Commerce are not impressed by him, the only vice president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but Heinze is still doing his best to play his role without any slackness.
Now that he has finally decided to retire and start enjoying his life, Xu Yi is happy for him from the bottom of his heart.
It's just that such an old partner left his side, but it still made Xu Yi feel a strong sense of reluctance and loss in his heart.
Heinze left today, so who will leave tomorrow?
After being stunned for a while, Xu Yi pressed a button on the table.
Moments later, Tvesti pushed the door open and walked in.
"Elder, do you have any commands?"
Xu Yi smiled at her: "Shouldn't you add a 'dear' in front of my salutation now?"
Tvesty blinked and retorted seriously, "Lord, it's working time, it's not appropriate for me to add that title, right?"
Xu Yi rolled his eyes helplessly, thinking that Tvesty was still an elf after all, and he wouldn't be as shy about this kind of thing as an ordinary human girl.
Even though Tvisti and Xu Yi's partnership had been confirmed under the witness of Elder Lisanya, Tvisti still did not look much different in front of him.
At this point, it is far from Steele, who is obviously closer to humans.
"Well, since it's working time, no kidding, go get Alex here for me. ”
"Yes. ”
About twenty minutes later, Alex appeared in front of Xu Yi with a puzzled face and a hint of uncertainty on his face.
Xu Yi glanced at him and found that although he was wearing a complete set of work clothes at the moment, he looked very neat and unusually clean, and even his hair was meticulously groomed without the slightest mess.
If you see this image under normal circumstances, probably everyone will praise this young man for being very good at dressing himself.
But after Xu Yi saw Alex's appearance, he couldn't help but snort coldly. (To be continued......)
