Chapter 139: Three Collaborative Projects
At the beginning of October, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce suddenly announced that it would cooperate with the Kingdom of Lampari on three projects.
The first collaborative project was about the Magic Signal Tower.
According to the agreement signed between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Lampari Kingdom, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will set up more than 100 magic signal towers in the Lampari Kingdom at the beginning, and cooperate with the 50 magic signal towers that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will set up on the Black Rice Wasteland to form a magic fluctuation signal transmission line from the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the Duchy of Stantin to the city of Duanweimar, the Duchy of Stantin.
According to the situation revealed by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, as long as this signal transmission line is completed, theoretically speaking, even if people are in the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, they can also talk to people in Anweimar City, which is nearly a thousand kilometers away, through the Guò magic phone box.
However, at the same time, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce also announced another thing, that is, due to the current technical limitations of research related to magic wave signals, this kind of long-distance call cannot be opened to the public, so after the completion of this line, it will only be used for limited dialogues between some characters.
Although the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce did not give a clear explanation, everyone speculated that this magic fluctuation signal transmission line, which is also called a communication line by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, is probably mainly to make it convenient for Xu Yi, the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and Her Majesty Queen Sevini of the Lampari Kingdom to talk to each other.
However, it is too extravagant to build an additional 150 magic signal towers in one go, and the expected investment announced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce alone is as high as four million gold coins, but it is just to facilitate Xu Yi to talk to Her Majesty Queen Sevigny, which is also too extravagant.
And it's different from these gossips that ordinary people pay attention to. There are also many people in the Lampari Kingdom who have hindered the implementation of the Magic Signal Tower in the Principality of Stanting. In the end, it was even possible to carry out the matter by dispatching the escort team of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to suppress the opposing noble lords. Therefore, we oppose this cooperation project between the Kingdom of Lampari and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
The reason why the noble lords in the Duchy of Stantin oppose the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to erect magic signal towers in their territory is because they are afraid that these magic signal towers of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce are similar to those magic towers that were notorious on this continent thousands of years ago and can control the minds of people.
Although the New Flying Chamber of Commerce explained this, claiming that the Magic Signal Towers were completely different from those magic towers, and that they simply did not possess such terrifying abilities, this was not entirely convincing.
After several newspapers in the Principality of Stantin reported on the incident, the opposition instantly became louder in the kingdom.
However, in the days that followed, the Magicians' Union of the Lampari Kingdom issued a statement in the daily newspaper Anvimar and the Lampari Weekly, claiming that the Magicians' Union had made a detailed review of the magic signal tower that the New Flying Chamber of Commerce was about to erect in the Lampari Kingdom. It was confirmed that the magic array engraved on the magic signal tower was only a fourth-level magic array, and it was also a very ordinary elemental magic array, which did not have any terrifying ability to manipulate people's hearts, and had nothing to do with the kind of magic tower that people were worried about.
At the same time, several archmages within the Lampari Kingdom, including the president of the Magicians' Guild, Grand Magician Palmes Allen, and Grand Magician Eisenka, made it clear in an interview with Lampari Weekly that they are actually concerned about any actions of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce in the Lampari Kingdom, and they will also supervise certain aspects from the perspective of the interests of the kingdom.
Together, the two said so far. The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has been focusing on the construction and promotion of magic machinery, and there are absolutely no thoughts and actions that try to control people's hearts. Moreover, the new flying chamber of commerce has always supported the Lampari Kingdom, so people don't need to worry too much about it at all.
On the contrary, when it comes to those who question the erection of the magic signal tower, the two of them refute it in unison, claiming that it is completely the heart of a villain to live the belly of a gentleman.
While the cooperation between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Lampari Kingdom has brought a lot of benefits to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it has also promoted the rapid development of the Lampari Kingdom, benefiting many people in the Kingdom.
This can be seen in the obvious improvement in people's lives in the Lampari Kingdom in recent years.
And at the same time, the two also put forward a new point of view, claiming that the emergence of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has led a new trend, that is, it will bring the entire continent into a new era of magical machinery, and then the lives of people on this continent will be affected by the ubiquity of all kinds of magical machinery.
In this trend, what people need to do is not to resist, but to try to change their thinking and accept it positively.
Regarding the statement of the Magician Guild and the two great magicians, although many people feel that the Magician Guild and these two great magicians are closely related to Xu Yi and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and the two sides have many interests involved, so the conclusions they gave are not credible.
But after all, the Wizards' Guild and the two Great Magicians have unparalleled authority in the Kingdom of Lampari in magic, and since they say it's okay, it's no problem, and anyone's rebuttal is meaningless.
As a result, the Lampali Kingdom Parliament soon announced that the Lampari Kingdom has begun to prepare for this cooperation with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and it is expected that this communication line will be completely completed by the end of next year.
The second cooperation project has nothing to do with the specific manufacture of magical machinery, but the cooperation between the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and the Kingdom of Lampari to jointly establish an academy.
These academies, of course, are not magical academies, but academies similar to the Bonta City Magical Industry Skills Training Academy, which specializes in training knowledge related to magical machinery.
According to the announced figures, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Lampari Kingdom are expected to build seventeen magic industry skills training academies within the Lampari Kingdom within three years, covering almost the entire Lampari Kingdom, so that everyone who is willing to engage in the magic industry can choose one to receive training.
And just like the Bonta City Magic Industry Skills Training Academy, these seventeen newly opened Magic Industry Skills Training Colleges have also taken certain tuition reduction measures to ensure that those students with average financial conditions can also study at the academy with peace of mind.
Among these measures, in addition to some subsidies from the official authorities of the Lampari Kingdom. There is also a similar approach to the previous approach taken by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce in the Magic Academy of Baron Rictor and the Bonta City Magic Industry Skills Training Academy. That is, the students can sign an agreement with the corresponding chamber of commerce. These chambers of commerce are required to pay for their tuition and even living expenses at the college, and the requirement is that they must work in the chamber of commerce that has signed the agreement after graduation.
Although this article is not limited to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but only because of the student's volition, he can sign an agreement with any magic mechanical Chamber of Commerce, but everyone knows that under the same conditions, any student will probably choose the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce first.
The other chambers of commerce in the Lampari Kingdom are apparently well aware of this, after the Royal Parliament announced the partnership. Soon after, more than thirty chambers of commerce and newspapers from all over the country expressed their willingness to offer sufficient favorable conditions for students admitted to these magical industry skills training academies.
There are even some chambers of commerce that simply mark the price and give clear gold coins to show their sincerity.
It can be said that these seventeen magic industry skill training academies have not yet opened, and the competition for the students who do not yet exist in them is already in full swing.
There is no way, who let President Xu of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce once say a word.
"In the era of the magic industry, technology is the primary productive force, and talent is a qiē. ”
In order to compete for these future talents, it is certainly not a big deal to spend more.
The third collaborative project. But it's not just about the cooperation between the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and the Kingdom of Lampari, in fact, seriously. The project is led by the Kingdom of Lampari, with the Amrité Chamber of Commerce working with the main partner.
This project is an extremely large road paving project.
According to some of the plans announced by the Royal Assembly of the Kingdom of Lampari to the Lampari Weekly Newspaper, the Kingdom of Lampari will further supplement and upgrade the road network in the Kingdom over the next five years.
In addition to continuing to build new roads and making every town in the kingdom accessible by road, the original roads will also be upgraded.
With the growing development of the Lampari Kingdom, the previously most common two-lane road is no longer able to cope with the increasing demand for transport.
Several major highways connecting the cities of Bangta and Anwemar as well as the northeastern provinces are now even regularly congested, affecting traffic efficiency.
Therefore, the Lampari Kingdom Council, under the direction of Her Majesty Queen Sevigny, after careful study, decided to upgrade the roads in the kingdom, doubling all the major roads to four lanes, and even upgrading the road connecting Bonta City and Anwemar City to an exaggerated eight lanes in one go.
The total investment in this project is expected to be as high as 35 million gold coins, and even though the financial revenue of the Lampari Kingdom is now increasing year by year, and even exceeded a staggering 10 million gold coins last year, it is obviously unable to cope with such an astonishing expenditure.
As a result, most of the investment in this project fell to the provinces and corresponding cities within the kingdom.
The main reason why the road upgrade between Bonta City and Anvimar City will become an amazing eight-lane road is because Bangta City has money......
As for the role of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in this cooperation project, it is mainly responsible for providing various materials and construction magic machinery.
To this end, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce also announced a joint venture with the Lampari Kingdom to build three cement processing plants and a construction magic machinery manufacturing plant within the Lampari Kingdom to facilitate the local production of materials.
According to the information revealed by the Royal Assembly of the Lampari Kingdom, the three cement processing plants are completely owned by the Lampari Kingdom and have absolute control.
In other words, these three cement processing plants are actually completely owned by the Lampari Kingdom, and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce cannot really influence them.
As for the other engineering magic machine factory, the Kingdom Council did not disclose any information about it.
This makes a lot of people think about it.
If this construction magic machinery manufacturing factory also completely belongs to the Lampari Kingdom, then wouldn't it mean that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has already transferred the manufacturing technology of the construction magic machinery to the Lampari Kingdom?
Although the new flying business will be very generous in transferring technology to the outside world before, it is limited to the scope of household magic machines, and if this time it is as people speculate, it is the first time that the manufacturing technology of magic machine tools has been transferred.
Does this mean...... The New Flying Chamber of Commerce finally plans to open up the technology related to magic machines other than household magic machines?
Thinking of this possibility, countless people suddenly became ready to move. (To be continued......)
