Although no one would really come to Xu Yi to question him if he was eligible to participate, there would still be no shortage of people who came up to probe the situation.

Not long after Xu Yi appeared at the banquet, Moon Cruise, the president of the Amrley Chamber of Commerce, greeted him with a glass of wine and a smile.

"President Xu, usually when we invite you to a banquet, you are too busy to come, why did you show up immediately as soon as the city lord invited you today?"

Since reaching an exclusive supply agreement with Xu Yi on cement, and then making many practical calculations on cement, and confirming that this thing really has excellent performance, far exceeding the building materials used by the Amrley Chamber of Commerce before, President Cruise will greet Xu Yi with such a smile every time he sees him, and he will no longer be full of suspicion and disdain for Xu Yi when the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce first joined the business association.

Xu Yi smiled and raised the wine glass in his hand and touched him: "President Cruise, you have wronged me like this." You know, I used to turn down the invitation of the city lord, and it wasn't just for you. No way, there are too many things in the Chamber of Commerce, not only before, but I was also so busy during this time that I couldn't wait to even use my sleep time to work. To be able to come to this banquet today, it took a lot of effort to squeeze it out. ”

"It's good to have a busy job. The things of your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce have always been so popular, and of course you, the president, will be busy. President Cruise laughed, suddenly leaned closer to Xu Yi, and deliberately lowered his voice and asked, "President Xu, to tell you the truth, how much has your new magic lamp sold?"

Xu Yi smiled slightly. Stretch out a slap in the face.

"Five thousand? No, it can't be so few. That...... 50,000 units?" Seeing Xu Yi nodding, President Cruise suddenly gasped. His face was full of shock. "It's only been less than half a month, right? It's sold so much? President Xu, are you ...... Did your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce cast a spell on the people of Tower City in the whole state, and let everyone buy your things?"

Xu Yi couldn't help but laugh, thinking that although he didn't apply the charm magic, but through the various products launched by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce before, as well as the various advertisements of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the many reports in the "Bangta Daily", the recognition rate of the people in Bangta City is very high, no matter what new products the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce launches, it will immediately attract all-round attention.

And this time, because of the addition of Yanis and Vivien, two genius appearance designers, the magic table lamp is enough to attract most of the attention by its appearance alone. Coupled with the influence of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, this will achieve such terrifying sales.

"President Cruise, if I know such a strong magic, what kind of chamber of commerce will I open to directly charm people and let them obediently take out the gold coins in their pockets and give them to me?" Xu Yi quipped. "The reason why it sells so well is, of course, because the goods of our chamber of commerce are really good enough. Cement for example, don't you like it?"

As soon as he heard Xu also mention cement, President Cruise immediately looked nervously left and right. Xiang Xu also glanced at him and said in a low voice, "President Xu, please help keep this thing secret for the time being." ”

Xu Yi smiled and nodded.

In the shopping mall, being able to get ahead of the curve can play an extremely important role in many cases.

Now the Amrley Chamber of Commerce has preemptively obtained the exclusive right to purchase cement from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. It means that they are one step ahead of other builders in the use of this new building material, and it also means that the Amritri Chamber of Commerce can achieve further development in the future.

Of course, President Cruise didn't want Xu Yi to reveal this secret, so as not to affect his and Amrley Chamber of Commerce's plans.

Seeing Xu Ye, he was silent. President Cruise laughed dryly and said, "President Xu." Let's go back to the question. Why are you free to come to this banquet today? I'm really curious. ”

Xu Yi glanced at him: "What, do you think I'm not qualified to participate in the auction?"

"How could that be?" President Cruise paused, shaking his head. But he still said in a very tactful tone, "It's just that your Chamber of Commerce has always been dealing in magic machinery, why are you interested in iron ore?"

"Your Amrité Chamber of Commerce specializes in the construction industry, why did you come?" Xu Yi asked rhetorically.

"Hey, there's a lot of iron consumed on construction sites. Tell me about the ...... you said earlier," President Cruise lowered his voice again. "That reinforced concrete is also very iron-intensive. If you can own a piece of iron ore yourself, it is much better than buying it directly from someone else. I think President Xu should know very well that Fuller Morgan guy has always been very black-hearted. ”

Xu Yi spread his hands: "Then do you think the magic machinery produced by our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has a high demand for iron ore?"

President Cruise looked at Xu Yi silently for a while, and frowned slightly: "So, President Xu, are you really interested in those two iron mines?"

"Of course, what else am I going to do?" Xu Yi replied as a matter of course, and then pointed to the crowd of people in other places at the banquet. "This time, the royal family finally put up a public auction of iron ore, and you can see that not only the chambers of commerce in our Bangta City, but also the big chambers of commerce in other cities have rushed over. I think that if His Majesty the King allows it, the chambers of commerce of other countries will also participate. After all, iron ore is too widely used, and if you can have the opportunity to control two in your own hands, then who will let it go?"

President Cruise turned his head to look at the people in the lively banquet hall who were chatting together, and nodded, "Indeed, this is a rare opportunity, and no one wants to miss it. After that, he turned his head to look at Xu Yi and asked with some hesitation: "But President Xu, according to the information I heard from the City Lord, the starting price of the smaller of the two iron mines is 500,000 gold coins......

The implication is, of course, that Xu Yi's economic strength is doubted.

Xu Yi smiled, thinking that this President Cruise had been talking for a long time, and finally couldn't help but say this question, so he said in a relaxed tone: "Well, I've heard about it too." It should be said that this starting price is very low. However, I see that so many people here are eyeing each other, and the final transaction price is only afraid that it will be much higher. ”

President Cruise served the dish and glanced at Xu Yi. Seeing that after he heard the astonishing amount of 500,000 gold coins, he didn't even frown. I can't help but wonder in my heart.

The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is in Bangta City, and everyone can see what they have sold and how much income they have earned under their noses.

According to the estimation of several people from the Federation last time they got together, even if every commodity of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was a pure profit, the total income obtained in less than half a year should be about less than 200,000 gold coins, why did Xu Yi think that he might be involved in the auction of these two iron mines? Where did the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce get so much money?

Of course, it is impossible for him to get an answer from Xu Yi. So he could only talk to Xu Yi for a few more words, and then said goodbye and left.

As soon as he turned around, President Cruise's gaze swept across the banquet hall and he was suddenly startled.

In this banquet hall, which covers an area of more than 500 square meters, and the top of the arc at the highest point is more than four meters above the ground, President Cruise can see countless products of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce at once.

On the left and right walls, from left to right, there are as many as twenty magic air conditioners of heating and cooling that the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has launched before.

Although in the propaganda of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. One magic air conditioner is enough to support the temperature regulation of a thirty-square-meter space, but this banquet hall is used by the city lord to entertain guests, of course, it will not be so stingy, so he ordered twenty units from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in one go.

Because it has now entered a harsh winter. The outside room was already cold and frozen at night, so now in this banquet hall, there are twenty magic air conditioners all open. The temperature in the hall is adjusted as if it is late spring.

And on the wall below the magic air conditioner, there is also a long row of brackets. On these stands, the new flying chamber of commerce's latest magic table lamp is lined up. It emits a brilliant and dazzling light, illuminating the hall of this particularly large space as if it were daytime.

In the past, when banquets were held in this hall, in addition to lighting countless candles on the walls, candles had to be lit on each chapter table to keep the entire hall lit.

Now, after hanging these magic table lamps on the walls and hanging a magic chandelier at the top of the hall, which is said to have been specially designed and manufactured for this place by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the whole hall is transparent and bright, and there is no dark feeling.

Seeing these magic air conditioners and magic lamps, President Cruise couldn't help but have a guess in his heart that he couldn't believe himself.

Maybe...... Everyone underestimated the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.

###

Xu Yi didn't know that President Cruise had so many thoughts in his heart, and he didn't know that he would have a serious misestimation of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce because he saw a lot of goods from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

But if he knew the amount of 200,000 gold coins that President Cruise had in mind, he would be very shocked.

Because according to a financial report made by Sebas half a month ago, in this nearly half a year, if you don't count the income of the magic table lamp, the total income of all the goods sold by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is just about 200,000 gold coins.

But for the real profit of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it is not something that outsiders can calculate.

The reason is very simple, any product of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is a huge profit! And it is a terrible profiteering!

Among them, the lowest sales margin is the first product - the magic fan.

Because at the beginning, when developing and manufacturing magic fans, Xu Yi did not have enough experience in the development of magic machinery, so he was not able to reduce the cost of magic fans.

At that time, Xu Yi did not employ enough dwarven craftsmen to develop enough magic machine tools for mass production, so most of the magic fan shells were made by blacksmiths in Bangta City, which further increased the cost.

But even so, the sales margin of the first-generation magic fan was still more than 50%.

As for the second-generation variable-speed magic fan, because the production process is more mature, and it is mass-produced by the magic machine tool, the cost has been greatly reduced, but the price has not changed compared to the first generation of the magic fan, so the sales profit margin even exceeds 70%.

As for the farmland magic machinery, magic air conditioner, magic rice cooker, and now the magic table lamp, no matter which one it is, the sales profit margin will not be less than 70%.

In other words, in less than half a year, the total sales income of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is calculated as a whole of 200,000 gold coins, so the total profit has reached an astonishing 140,000 gold coins!

Of course, during this time, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce also invested a lot.

The most significant amount of money spent on research and development is spent.

Xu has always spared no effort to invest in the practical research of new products, new technologies and new theories.

In the past six months, Xu Yi has invested a total of more than 20,000 gold coins in this area alone.

Coupled with the running costs of the Chamber of Commerce, including the salaries of the workers, which consumed about 30,000 gold coins, there are now 87,463 gold coins left on the books of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

For the self-made Xu Yi and Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, this is undoubtedly a huge amount of money.

But this money is obviously not enough to auction two iron mines.

After Xu Yi finished thinking in his heart, as soon as he raised his head, he happened to meet the slightly confused gaze of Fuller Morgan, the president of the Falcao Chamber of Commerce in the distance. (To be continued......)
