Chapter 61: The Middle Class

No matter what kind of answer Count Stark wanted, Xu Yi didn't give him any affirmative answer.

This was originally Xu Yi's reaction, even if he really supported Her Royal Highness Princess Sevigny, but on the surface, it would never be possible to express distrust and any negative opinion towards His Royal Highness Prince Eric, because this is disrespectful in the first place.

What's more, no matter how much Earl Stark puts on a posture of wanting to talk to Xu Yi sincerely, Xu Yi can't really believe that he, a stubborn conservative who belongs to the Stark family, will have any true feelings for him.

In the final analysis, the two have different positions, and it is not only their own ideas that determine all their actions.

Especially for someone like Earl Stark, who represents the attitude of the Stark family, perhaps every word he says and every question he asks has the Stark family's intentions.

So Xu Yi neither affirmed nor denied this issue, but only vaguely said that he had never even seen His Royal Highness Prince Eric, and he didn't have any understanding at all, and of course he couldn't talk about whether he was optimistic or not.

For the answer given by Xu Yi, Count Stark seemed to be very disappointed, but he was a little relieved, but he didn't ask any more questions, but then asked some general plans for Xu Yi and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the future, and ended the conversation.

When he walked out of the City Lord's Mansion, Xu Yi vaguely felt that he seemed to have missed something.

But after thinking about it carefully, he found that it was impossible for him to miss anything from Earl Stark, so after just thinking about it, Xu Yi gave up and continued to think about this problem.

After leaving the City Lord's Mansion. Xu Yi went straight to the Filson Carriage and Horse Shop. I found President Pompei, who was drinking tea in his office at this time, according to his habit.

President Pombéry was probably happy to see Xu Yi. Originally, I wanted to invite Xu Yi to sit down and drink tea together, but after Xu Yi dropped a sentence, he immediately jumped up with a flexible movement that did not match his body.

"What? The magic locomotive has been successfully developed?" President Pompei looked at Xu Yi with wide eyes, his face full of shock and joy. "Really, where is it? Take me to see it!"

Xu Yi smiled slightly and hooked his hand to President Pompei, who immediately followed behind him with a smile.

However, Xu Yi did not take President Pomberg back to the magic locomotive research and development site in the Falling Rain Valley for the first time, but first came to the clear water and blue sky commercial and residential community by the Sandy River that is being developed and built by the Amrley Chamber of Commerce.

This section of the river embankment has been renovated, and the overall environment has become extremely clean and tidy. The commercial and residential communities developed on the banks of the Sandy River, which are also exceptionally beautiful, are all villas and small buildings built according to the concept of modern magic houses of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

Because of the concept of a modern magic house, these small buildings are equipped with all the magic machinery for the home, and enjoy a unified supply of magic crystals, living in such a small building will allow people to experience a completely different new life.

For the average person, this concept is not only very new, but also extremely practical and convenient.

Therefore, even if the Amrley Chamber of Commerce set the price of each small building at a high price of 8,000 gold coins, it still sold nearly 100 buildings in just two months, accounting for almost half of the entire community.

It is precisely because of this situation. Let President Cruise admire Xu Yi even more.

At the beginning, he also thought that because the cost of a new concept magic house living community like this was too high, the price must be too high. Not many people should be able to afford it.

And those who are really rich don't look down on such small buildings, so the sales will definitely be very bad.

However, when it came time to make the actual sale, Xu Yi forced President Cruise to raise his previous price of 5,000 gold coins to 8,000 gold coins.

Then, when sales began, sales were much more than President Crews had expected.

The nearly 100 small buildings sold alone are enough for the Amrley Chamber of Commerce to recover its costs and earn more than 200,000 gold coins.

If all the planned communities are sold, Amritri merchants can even earn a huge profit of at least 500,000 gold coins!

Although President Crews had heard Xu Yi give him an analysis of this situation, he had always been very puzzled.

In his opinion, the commoners in Bonta were either very poor and could not afford to buy any houses, or they were so rich that they would simply buy their own estates.

This kind of housing that is not up or down should be ignored by no one.

Xu Yi told him that in fact, there are some so-called "middle classes" in Bangta City, and these people are not considered to be particularly rich, but it is also wrong to say that they are poor.

This kind of outrageous house, which is clearly distinguished from ordinary people, but does not have the same outrageous price as those manors, is just enough to meet the needs of these people.

Facts also proved Xu Yi's judgment.

President Cruise also has a lot of contacts in Bonta City, but in the end, the people who came up with the money to buy these new concept magic goods houses are ordinary civilians in Bonta City that he has no impression of at all.

If anything, he probably only knew one of them, and that was the vice president of the Irish Associated Chamber of Commerce, Kovats.

President Crews almost dropped his jaw in surprise when he saw that Kovats, who had just been an ordinary farmer in an Irish village more than two years ago, took out ten golden tickets with a face value of 1,000 gold coins and asked to sell him a small building in the location he had chosen.

Since then, even this kind of ordinary farmer, who was not taken into his eyes at all before, can take out a full 10,000 gold coins in one go?

When President Cruise relayed his thoughts to Xu Yi, he was mercilessly ridiculed by Xu Yi.

The United Chamber of Commerce of Ireland has developed rapidly in the past two years, and has now become the leading industry of all parts processing enterprises in Bonta City, and in the last six months, it has stepped into the ranks of producing complete magic machinery.

For example, the Irish brand magic kettle, which was just launched this year, has snatched a lot of markets in Bonta City from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce because of its excellent quality and low price.

At present, the monthly profit of the United Chamber of Commerce of Ireland is estimated by Xu Yi, and the minimum is more than 20,000 gold coins.

As the vice president of the United Chamber of Commerce of Ireland, he is also the largest shareholder after Freeman. Kavacs took out 10,000 gold coins in one go, which was not a surprise at all.

President Crews marveled. On the other hand, he sighed why Xu Yi wanted to raise tigers.

Now that you know that this Irish United Chamber of Commerce has good potential. So why not prevent it in advance, and they will snatch the market from their own names?

Xu Yi smiled and said nothing, and did not explain.

Of course, he wouldn't sue President Sù Cruise, it was actually the result of his deliberate push.

Otherwise, he has every chance of nipped the United Chamber of Commerce in the bud.

However, this can indeed be regarded as a tiger breeding, and Xu has no way to refute President Cruise.

"Hey, President Xu, you say...... Should I also open a bus line here?" The voice of President Pompeiy on the side pulled Xu Yi back from the memories of seeing the clear water and blue sky community in front of him. "Look. The environment here is so good now, there will definitely be many people who will come here to play in the future. Although it is not far from Bonta City, it takes at least half an hour to walk, and it is also not close. If a bus line is opened, I believe that many people will take it. ”

Xu Yi glanced at President Pompeii with disdain, thinking that you can be a little out of business.

"Although it's not bad to open one, at most this can only be used as a citizen welfare, and don't think about making money from this. Xu Yi shook his head and said. "This place is a long way away, but don't forget, President Pompeii. Now I have bicycles. If you come by bicycle, it will take you at most 10 minutes. ”

As soon as I heard Xu also mentioned the bicycle. President Pompeii immediately glanced at Xu Yi with a sad face, and said with a sad face: "I said President Xu, can you not mention the damn bicycle? It's because your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce developed a bicycle, and now many people don't ride in the carriage." There are even quite a few people who ride their bikes from Bonta City to Kalmar City or Saltan City. I can't figure it out, it's sixty or seventy kilometers, and they'd rather go by bicycle than by horse-drawn carriage!"

"Of course, because it doesn't cost anything to ride a bike. There was a burst of laughter behind him, but it was President Cruise, who had received the notice, coming over. "Besides, riding a bicycle is no slower than riding a horse-drawn carriage, so why spend money?"

"Hmph, at least it's comfortable to ride in a carriage. President Pompeiy glared at President Cruise and turned to look at Xu Yi, a fat face full of smiles. "But when President Xu's magic locomotive appears, I think everyone will definitely choose to come back and ride our magic locomotive, right, President Xu?"

President Cruise looked at Xu Yi and said with a smile: "I heard President Xu mention this thing last year, but I didn't expect that it was really developed until now." I'd like to see if this thing is so amazing that I've been waiting for it for more than a year. ”

Xu Yi shook his head with a smile, beckoned the two of them to get into President Pompei's extremely luxurious private carriage, and drove quickly towards the Falling Rain Valley.

After the carriage started, Xu Yi took out a map of the Lampari Kingdom from his arms, spread it out in front of the two of them, and said seriously to the two people who were puzzled: "This time I made a special trip to the two of you to visit the first official transportation of the magic locomotive, in addition to showing you that the magic locomotive far exceeds the performance and advantages of the carriage, there is also a very important mention that requires the cooperation of the two chambers of commerce between the two of you." If done well, this partnership will most likely bring you both chambers of commerce a huge profit beyond your imagination. ”

President Cruise and President Pombéry glanced at each other, both saw the glint emanating from each other's eyeballs, and then nodded to Xu Yi at the same time: "Say it." ”

Looking at the expectant expressions on the faces of the two, Xu Yi smiled, pointed to a red line on the map representing the highway leading from Bangta City to Anweimar City, and said: "This cooperation is actually something that Filson Carriage and Horse Company has done before, but there is no system. I summarized it, in fact, it is to move materials to various places for circulation conversion, referred to as logistics. (To be continued......)
