Chapter 28 is even more sensational than before
After staying for a while, Neval reacted and hurriedly trotted to Xu Yi's side.
"Lord, why are you here?"
Xu Yi smiled at him: "I happened to come to the Ruerson Kingdom for something, and it is not too far from here." I received news that your fleet had just arrived, so I stopped by to see the situation. Then he turned his head to look at the three magic ships and asked, "How is it?"
Neval laughed: "Thanks to the care of Lady Luck, although I encountered some minor troubles along the way, it was still very smooth overall." And ......" Neval coughed lightly, lowering his voice slightly. "Your Excellency, a few days ago we found a valuable island in the open sea, which is about two hundred kilometers away from here......"
"Very valuable?" Seeing Neval's frowning appearance, Xu Yi suddenly understood in his heart. "And what is the situation on this island now?"
Neval made a reassuring gesture.
"Basically, no problem, I'll report back to you later. β
Xu Yi nodded: "I am very relieved that you are doing things, but I am afraid that I will not have time to deal with this matter for the time being, you can solve it yourself first, and then report to me in detail when you return to the Duchy of Stantin." β
"This ......" Neval thought about it, and felt that the situation on Thundering Island was not important, and there was no need to report to Xu Yi in too much of a hurry, so he gave up.
But there is another thing, but you need to do your best to tell sΓΉ Xu also.
Listening to Neval finish talking about what President Randolph had just asked for discussion, Xu Yi smiled and patted Neval on the shoulder. "You're doing a great job." Sue President SΓΉ Randolph. We, the new flying chamber of commerce, can consider his request to transport goods. As for the specific details, I also hope that he can personally visit the Principality of Stantin to make a decision, and it is not appropriate to make a hasty decision now. And about minerals...... He does his best, and he doesn't force it. β
"Huh?" Neval was a little strange.
The elder obviously attached great importance to this matter before he left, why did he put on an indifferent appearance now?
Seeing the doubts in Neval's heart, Xu Yi explained with a smile: "There have been some changes in the cooperation with the Ruerson Kingdom, if nothing else, our Chamber of Commerce will be able to obtain a very high share of mineral resources from the Ruerson Kingdom in the future." Therefore, for the time being, you can be less anxious about the private mineral transaction. Of course, I don't mean that you don't need to do these things, but that you have to keep doing them. Because our chamber of commerce's demand for mineral resources is never-ending, you know what I mean?"
"Understood!" Neval nodded vigorously, and then asked curiously: "Elder, is it that the Ruerson Kingdom has a request from our Chamber of Commerce, so he is willing to give in?"
"Pretty much. Xu Yi smiled slightly.
This reason is related to cooperation with the Azhara tribe, but it is not convenient to disclose it to Neval now.
Seeing that Xu didn't say anything, Neval didn't continue to ask in an interesting way.
There is nothing important to report for the time being. Neval's gaze involuntarily moved to the bottom of the Rising Sun at some point, tilting his face up. He looked at the little girl on the Chaoyang with great interest.
"Grow up, this little girl is ......"
"Her name is Lumi, don't you see her identity?" Xu Yixiao asked.
Neval shook his head, thinking to himself that he was not a god, how could he see the identity of this little girl just by her appearance.
However, from the tone of the elder, it can be guessed that the identity of this little girl should be extraordinary.
But judging from her clothes, dress, and temperament, she doesn't look like a child from a big aristocratic family.
What's more, with the current status of the elder in the Ruerson Kingdom, I am afraid that the only one who can be considered extraordinary by him is the princess of the Ruerson Kingdom, right?
However, no matter how you look at it, this little girl with unkempt hair and clothes in a motley fabric has nothing to do with the princess.
Seeing that Neval did not recognize Lumi's identity, Xu Yi couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Immediately relieved.
The gnomes have been missing from this continent for too long.
Even the records of the dwarf tribe in various documents are about to become mere legends.
Therefore, in everyone's cognition, they will feel that the dwarf tribe has long disappeared from this continent.
Moreover, the appearance of the dwarf tribe is very similar to that of human children, and there are very few differences.
If it weren't for Xu Yi's previous dwarf clan's knowledge of magic and machinery, he was very interested in it, so he flipped through a large number of materials and documents, and when he saw Lumi, there was still a group of elves standing next to him, he was afraid that it would be difficult for him to recognize Lumi as the legendary dwarf clan at the first time.
Just as Xu Yi was thinking about whether to take the opportunity to reveal Lumi's identity, Lumi suddenly ran over quickly, and said to Xu Yi excitedly: "Hey, Xu Yi, this ship is amazing!
Xu Yiguaner: "This is not something I can create alone, but it is made by gathering the strength of countless people in our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce." How's it going, Lumi, after seeing this magic steamer, do you think it's ridiculous to think that you can build an ocean-going ship for only five thousand gold coins?"
Rumi wrinkled her small nose, snorted softly, and muttered in a low voice, "I haven't been out for a long time, I didn't know that you humans are so high in this regard now." Immediately, he became excited again. "Hey, Xu Yi, these three ships are so powerful, can't they still go on an ocean voyage? You must be lying to me!"
Xu Yi shrugged: "What did I lie to you about." Although theoretically these three magic ships do have the ability to sail to the sea, in practice the risks encountered by the ocean voyage are far greater than you think, don't believe you ask Neval. β
Seeing Xu also pointing at him, Neval was stunned.
Hearing the conversation between Xu Yi and Lumi just now, his heart was full of doubts.
This little girl named Lumi dared to call the elder by his name directly, which must have proved that her identity was not trivial.
But what did the little girl say after that......
"What is the current level of your human race in this regard"?
What do you mean by "you humans"?
Isn't she human?
While she was contemplating the meaning of this sentence, Lumi had already jumped in front of Neval. Tilting her face up at him, she asked, "Hey." Your name is Neval, isn't it? Is deep-sea ocean navigation really as dangerous as Xu Yi said?"
Catching a glimpse of Xu Yi's eyes running towards him, Neval immediately understood, coughed lightly, nodded, and replied, "Yes, Lumi...... Miss. The risks of sailing the ocean are more terrifying than you can imagine. β
Seeing that Rumie still looked suspicious. Neval raised his voice: "Don't look at me with such suspicion, these three ships set off from the Duchy of Stantin this time and sailed more than two thousand kilometers on the sea to arrive here, and I am the commander who led these three ships. So I know better than anyone the risks involved!"
Lumi muttered, lowered her head and thought about it, and when she raised her head again, she seemed a little depressed, and turned her head to Xu Yi and sighed softly: "So I still have to wait honestly for a few years?"
Xu Yi nodded lightly: "Yes." Didn't you say it yourself, you've been waiting for more than a hundred years, and it's okay to wait another five or ten years, isn't it?"
"Uh-huh......" Lumi muttered for a moment. Suddenly, he clapped his hands vigorously and hummed loudly. "Good. Let's do what we said before. β
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the Spreading Wings, the Rising Sun, and the Goddess of Victory, Elis, with intense anticipation and joy in his eyes. "In any case, it was a great surprise to be able to see these three magic ships of such magnitude and magnificence with my own eyes. I believe that as long as you are willing to help me, in a few years, I will be able to build an even more powerful magic ship!"
"Make it clear, it's not me helping you, it's you helping us. Xu Yi said with a smile. "Lumy, you're now a special researcher at our Chamber of Commerce's Magic Research Institute, and you're already an employee of our Chamber of Commerce, so you'll have to work hard for me. β
Lumi waved his hand: "It doesn't matter who helps whom, in short, as long as you can build a powerful enough magic ship in the end." As long as I can fulfill my dream, you can let me do anything!"
Xu Yi smiled slightly: "Don't worry, developing a better and stronger magic ship is originally one of the goals of our Chamber of Commerce." But Lumi, let's just say that although your main research direction is magic ships, you also need to work on other aspects of research and development. β
"I know. Rest assured, we gnomes are very faithful to our promises, so we won't be as cunning as you humans. β
Xu Yi laughed dumbly, and was about to say something, but Neval on the side couldn't help but shout.
"Gnomes, gods, you're a dwarf! Oh, that's unbelievable! Lord, is this true? There's a dwarf in front of me? It's a hallucination! It's incredible!"
Xu Yi looked at Neval, who was shocked and even a little incoherent, and thought to himself that although the dwarf clan was about to become a legendary creature, it wouldn't make Neval so out of shape, right?
Before Xu Yi could speak, Lumi was already crossed over and shouted at Neval with her face up, "Hey, human, what's wrong with the gnomes? Why do you think it's unbelievable? Am I not a living gnome?"
Neval nodded blankly.
"Yes, you should be a dwarf. But...... But haven't the gnomes long since disappeared from the continent?"
Xu Yi smiled and patted Neval's shoulder: "Okay, there are exceptions to everything." Isn't it also claimed that the elves have almost disappeared from the Sainz continent?But now that you are in the Chamber of Commerce, don't you have access to the elves all the time? Even the Goddess of Victory, Elis, has two elven researchers. Although gnomes are a little rarer than elves, you don't need to be so exaggerated, right?"
Neval opened his mouth, thinking that the elder would say it so lightly, but the dwarf clan actually reappeared on the continent of Sainz, which is unimaginable super sensational news, okay!
Seeing Neval's still incredulous expression, Xu Yi had a headache.
A few years ago, when she brought Yanis to Bangta City to appear in public, it caused an unexpected and terrifying sensation, and even the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was severely affected for a long time because of the crowd watching Yanis.
Now, if he brought Lumi back and announced it to everyone again, judging from Neval's current reaction, the sensational effect would be several times stronger than that of Yanis.
Looking at Lumi, who was still dissatisfied with Neval's exaggerated reaction and puffed out her cheeks angrily, Xu Yi smiled bitterly in his heart.
If you want to cooperate with a different race, this can be regarded as one of the consequences that you must bear. (To be continued......)
