The leisurely morning passed quickly.

This time, Xu Yi came to Anweimar City with a lot of things to do, so naturally there was not so much leisure time like this morning.

After having lunch with Si Dier, Xu Yi and the people sent by the military department came to the military training ground not too far from the northwest suburbs of Anweimar City.

In fact, the military department has long wanted Xu Yi to come to visit, but Xu Yi has always had something, and it is difficult to find time to come to Anweimar, this time Xu Yi finally came, of course the military department refused to let go of this opportunity, and made an appointment with Xu Yi early.

When Xu Yi entered the training ground after a strict inspection, he immediately found an acquaintance.

Major McConley, of course.

As soon as he saw Xu Yi, Major McConley immediately greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Hey, President Xu, I'm so glad you're finally here. ”

Xu Yi smiled and shook his head: "Major McConley, you are still so polite, in fact, I have long wanted to come here to have a look, this time there is a chance, of course I don't want to miss it." ”

The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and Major McConley introduced Xu to some of the other people in the training ground.

These people, in addition to some officers of the military department, also had several instructors in the training ground, and a total of twenty ordinary soldiers.

After meeting Xu Yi, these people treated Xu Yi very warmly, although it was the first time they met, they seemed to have regarded him as a good friend for a long time.

Xu Yi was a little strange why these people were so enthusiastic about him, knowing that he was just an ordinary businessman, and he should be incompatible with the soldiers.

"The question is. President Xu, you're not an ordinary businessman. McConley laughed. "It's true that other merchants with gold coins in their heads would be looked down upon by us stout soldiers, but you're different. Because of you and your new flying chamber of commerce. Now the brothers can finally have a complete set of equipment for each person, and after going to the battlefield, the ability to kill the enemy and save their lives has greatly increased. Why do you think we people aren't enthusiastic about you?"

"Yes. In the past, those of us in the logistics department were worried about the equipment on our brothers all day long, but we couldn't solve it because we didn't have money. As a result, as soon as Chairman Xu made a move, you easily solved this biggest problem, how can we not treat you as a brother?" another officer from the Logistics Department also laughed.

"Oh, I don't seem to be that capable, right? I actually solved such a big problem?" Xu Yi said in surprise.

"President Xu, you don't know how poor our logistics department used to be. Sue you, before this, in the entire kingdom of the army, only the Zhenbei army had to fight the bastards of the Sark Kingdom every day was relatively well-equipped, and the brothers in the other teams might not be able to make up a complete set of armor by an average of five people! As for the weapons...... Believe it or not? Some of the brothers of the Laika Legion even had big iron swords that had been in use for more than five years, and now the big iron swords were rusty. It's always sharpened, and it's almost turned into a short sword!"

"Isn't it so miserable......" Xu was also a little shocked.

If the equipment of the soldiers in the army of the Lampari Kingdom is really as miserable as they say, then the combat effectiveness of the kingdom's army is too worrying now.

If there is a real battle, I am afraid that if I encounter a slightly more elite enemy, I will be defeated for thousands of miles.

"Who's to say it isn't?"

As soon as the war was mentioned, the officers of these military departments immediately began to talk endlessly.

A group of people got together and kept spitting bitter water at Xu Yi

For a while, an officer claimed that there had been a clash with the enemy somewhere, but because of poor equipment, the 3,000 men had not yet beaten the opponent's 2,000 men. Not only did he lose the battle and more than a thousand people died, but he was also scolded and denounced as a waste by the nobles of the Kingdom Council.

A moment later, another officer said that he had been attacked by the enemy when he was still a soldier on the front line. He woke up from his dream and habitually reached out to the side to touch it, but he could only touch an iron rod.

It turned out that it was because of the lack of weapons. He could only find a random iron rod to use as a weapon.

A moment later another officer said......

......

Listening to the various miserable conditions confided by these officers, Xu Yi couldn't help but feel a sense of kinship. And then it felt weird too.

"Since our kingdom is so underarmed, why has the Sark kingdom never succeeded in invading?"

"Nonsense. Of course, because the brothers are desperate. One of the officers said angrily. "Those noble lords hide behind and scold this waste and that waste all day long, but they don't know that the brothers are working hard every day on the front line. If the equipment is not good, the brothers will use their bodies to resist, in short, they will not let the grandsons of the Sark Kingdom rush in. ”

"Hey...... But it was also a terrible fight. Major McConley sighed. "The casualties of the Zhenbei Army will not be less than 5,000 per year, and I doubt that if this continues, the Zhenbei Army will be scrapped. Who will be able to stand up to those guys in the Kingdom of Sark?"

A group of officers looked at each other, and after a while, one of the officers foamed at the mouth. "Phew, let those noble lords fight!"

Of course, everyone knew that he was talking, and after a moment of silence, Major McConley forced a smile and said, "Okay, don't talk about these uninteresting things. Today, President Xu is here for the first time, so can't you just keep letting him listen to our grievances? Besides, President Xu has now helped us solve the big problem of armaments. I'm sure you've all seen the 50,000 pairs of armor and weapons that I sent before, right? Tell you, for these 50,000 pairs of armor and weapons, Chairman Xu only asked for less than 500,000 gold coins!"

"It's only 500,000 gold coins?" A group of officers looked at Xu Yi in surprise, and one of the officers couldn't help but ask: "President Xu, is your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce too much money? If this armor weapon is bought from the Joseph family, it will cost at least thirty gold coins, and fifty thousand sets will cost at least one and a half million gold coins." ”

"Yes, not only will you not make money, but you will also lose money, right? Although we soldiers don't like you businessmen who only like money, we also know that you want to make money. How do you ...... I'm afraid it's not okay?"

Xu Yi looked at the faces full of questions in front of him, thinking that these officers may not know the situation because some of them are not from the Logistics Department, but Major McConley knows the specific situation, has he never explained it to these officers?

If that's the case, what are these officers here today for?

Seeing Xu Yi's puzzled gaze, Major McConley clapped his hands, attracting the attention of the officers, and said in a loud voice: "Okay, brothers, whether President Xu makes money or not, I don't think you really care about this issue, and you don't need to care about this issue." The reason why I have invited President Xu here today is because I have some technical questions to ask him, so you need to hurry. President Xu is very busy, and he missed this opportunity, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to have a chance in the future. ”

The officers all showed a look of sudden realization and dispersed, and after a while, one of them pulled a soldier who was training on the training ground.

"President Xu, you see, he is wearing one of those armors that your Chamber of Commerce sent last time. I think it would be nice to have a little bit of a change in the back, if only the gasket here could be thicker. ”

"President Xu, this is also the armor sent by your Chamber of Commerce, I think it's best to keep a movable joint here, so that the brothers can swing their weapons more easily. ”

"President Xu, look at this, this is the spear you sent. I think the gun is a little lighter, even though it's sharp and strong. I heard that you are made of what alloy, although it is very good, but many brothers say that they are not used to it, and the impact brought by this is not enough, and the power is not perfect. Do you want to change it?"

"President Xu......"

......

Xu Yi's eyes swept over the soldiers, listened to the opinions of these officers, and wrote them down with the small notebook he carried, and then asked Major McConley to bring a ruler and other measuring tools to record all kinds of parameters.

After all the officers got the answers from Xu Yi that they could get the corresponding modifications, they left satisfied, and then under the organization of McConley, the officers led the twenty soldiers to rehearse a small encounter in front of Xu Yi, so that Xu Yi could observe something from it and make some corresponding improvements to the equipment.

Xu Yi watched the drill on the sidelines for a while, and suddenly asked Major McConley beside him in a low voice: "This kind of technical problem only needs me to send a few technicians from the Chamber of Commerce to deal with it, why do you have to let me come?"

Major McConley still maintained a smile on his face, and replied seemingly casually, "Brothers, I heard that you Xinfei Chamber of Commerce alone can solve the equipment problem that has embarrassed us for so many years, and I am very curious about you, the president, so I want to see you." ”

"Just look at me?" Xu Yi asked again.

"You know, we are all straightforward people, and if you are helpful to everyone, then everyone will support you. The help given to us by your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can save us many brothers, and everyone will naturally regard you as the closest brother. I asked you to come here because I want you to have direct contact with everyone, so that everyone knows each other, so that it will be very convenient for you to do what you want to do in the future. ”

Xu Yi was silent for a while, and said softly: "I don't want to do anything, I just want to honestly open a chamber of commerce to do business." ”

Major McConley turned his head to look at Xu Yi, and the smile on his face seemed to imply a deep meaning.

"President Xu, whether you want it or not, there are some things you have already done. (To be continued......)
