Chapter 9 Long-term planning
The kingdom of Lampari, located in the south-central part of the Sainz continent, has an earlier spring than most countries on the Sainz continent.
In the middle of March, the south wind struck, the snow on the ground was blown away early, and even a few young shoots were scattered from the fresh soil, which dotted the barren and monotonous ground with a few touching greens.
Xu Yi glanced at the dazzling greenery outside the office window, and after a moment's pause, his gaze turned to the map of the kingdom hanging on the wall.
To the west of Bonta City, in addition to the red that represents Xiàn's factory at the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, a slightly lighter red color is painted further west to represent that this area is about to be incorporated into the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
Of course, Sevini will not only bring bad news, for example, when the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce took two months to complete the first batch of orders for farmland magic machinery, Sevini immediately brought Xu Yi a good news, that is, after careful consideration, His Majesty agreed to Xu Yi's request to lease the royal land.
And contrary to Xu Yi's expectations, His Majesty the King was even more generous than Xu Yi imagined.
Xu Yi only tentatively wanted to lease one square kilometer of land, but His Majesty the King actually increased it tenfold in one go!
Moreover, the rent demanded by His Majesty the King was much cheaper than Xu Yi had imagined.
At first, Xu also planned to lease one square kilometer of land, and planned to pay at least 5,000 gold coins a year for it, but after His Majesty agreed to lease this 10 square kilometers of land, the rent request given was only 30,000 gold coins per year!
If you exchange it according to the purchasing power. 30,000 gold coins per year can probably be equivalent to 3 million soft girl coins.
If you let any company in the Celestial Empire on Earth know, you can lease a full ten square kilometers of land for only three million soft girl coins a year. I'm going to faint with joy.
Of course, the rent is cheap. The proof lot must not be too good.
Although His Majesty the King asked Xu to choose such a piece of land near the city of Bangta, he also asked for it to be at least ten kilometers away from the city of Bangta.
It is said that such a location is too far away from Bonta City, which can be regarded as very poor.
However, to the surprise of His Majesty the King and Sevigny, Xu Yi simply chose an extremely desolate area fifty kilometers away from the western outskirts of Bonta City.
Severny even thought Xu Yi must be crazy at the time.
Although the map shows that this place is located in the middle of the cities of Bonta, Saltan and Kalmar, and is about the same distance from the three cities, it is more than 50 kilometers away from the nearest Bonta City.
At such a distance, even if the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce established a factory here, it produced a large number of magic machines. But if you want to transport these magic machines to the city, there will undoubtedly be a lot of additional transportation costs.
Thinking of the way Sevini persuaded him at that time, Xu Yi couldn't help laughing.
Although Sevini was indeed sincerely thinking about the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, she didn't know Xu Yi's overall plan, so she could only be regarded as in vain.
Xu Yi got up and walked to the map, first glanced at the large area marked with pale red, then moved his gaze slightly to the upper left of the land, and finally stopped at the intersection of a forest, rivers, and mountains.
That forest is the forest of falling rain.
Those two mountains and rivers. It is the Hengduan Mountains, which include the Norma tribe, the Angola tribe and several other dwarf tribes.
That river, of course, is the Sandy River, which originally passed through the Falling Rain Forest, but has now been diverted due to sediment accumulation.
And the landing point of Xu Yi's gaze. It is a new tribal settlement chosen by the Patriarch Sluby and the Patriarch of Monto after consultation with Xu Yi.
Now in this place, the Amrli Chamber of Commerce has sent a large number of people and is working hard to build house after house.
After two months of construction. This new tribe with an area of more than 10,000 square meters and thousands of dwarven houses has begun to take shape.
Once built. According to the estimates of the two dwarven patriarchs, it could even accommodate more than three thousand dwarves at the same time.
Not only can the dwarves of the Norma and Angolan tribes all move in. It is also possible to vacate more than half of the houses for the dwarves of other dwarven tribes.
If you follow the Sandy River, which is still dry, to the upper left of the map, you will see the Rainfall Forest where the Nightsong Tribe is hiding.
For more than two months, the elves have not been idle.
While conducting various aspects of research on the resin according to Xu Yi's request, the elves also conducted field investigations with several human water conservancy experts sent by Xu Yi to the upper reaches of the Sandy River.
After a month-long investigation, a complete governance plan was finalized.
The person in charge of this water conservancy project is still the Amrley Chamber of Commerce.
The Amrley Chamber of Commerce, which has gradually mastered the various uses of cement, can be regarded as the only chamber of commerce on the Sainz continent that can use reinforced concrete to build a super-strong embankment on the Sandy River according to Xu Yi's request.
Although the Sandy River is not particularly large, the construction period of the project is still tentatively set at two years or more.
Xu Yi couldn't do anything about this, after all, there were not as many large construction machines on the Sainz continent as on the earth, and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce did not have enough mature magical machinery technology to manufacture these corresponding construction machinery.
However, with the progress of this project, Xu also asked the research department of the Chamber of Commerce to conduct research on the relevant magic construction machinery according to the progress of the project, and maybe one or two pieces could be developed by then.
For example, the Magic Concrete Mixer, which is not very technical, has now been developed and delivered to the Amrley Chamber of Commerce for use, and then because of the good results, President Curris placed an order for 100 units.
Elder Elucia didn't feel that the construction was too long.
For elves who have lived for hundreds of years, two years is nothing more than a snap of a finger.
Moreover, at present, the Yege tribe has abundant groundwater use, and it is not as urgent to transform the river as before.
His eyes turned around the map, and Xu Yi stretched out a finger and pointed at the city of Bangta on the map. Then he dragged his finger to draw a straight line from Bonta City. Walk through the factory of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and then look at each other. Connect to the leased land, train to the new dwarven tribe, and finally infuse the Rainfall Forest.
"At the very least, we need to build a real highway like this to connect these places. Xu Yi muttered to himself, and then dragged his fingers to extend two other branches from the leased land, connecting Saltan City and Kalmar City respectively. "In addition to this, two other roads are needed. ”
According to Xu Yi's plan, this large area of leased land will become the most important large-scale production base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the future, and will undertake most of the magic machinery production tasks of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
And for a production base. Convenient transportation is obviously the primary consideration, so Xu Yi's first thought is to build a few qualified roads, instead of ordinary roads that are just poured out of gravel and dirt like the current Sainz Continent.
Of course, this plan cannot be completed in a while, and it can only be stored in Xu Yi's mind at present.
For now, the production base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is still the factory where Xu Yi is now.
"Well, and the factory outside of Kalmar. Seeing Heinze pushing the door in, Xu Yi'an added a sentence in his heart. Then Xiang Heinze smiled and asked, "Hey." Heinze, are you leaving?"
Heinze's solemn face actually showed a hint of nervousness, and after turning around the office twice, he asked Xu Yi, "Xu Yi." Are you really not going to go with me?"
Xu Yi smiled and said: "Why should I go? Didn't I say it a long time ago, you are solely responsible for the Kalmar City side, and I won't interfere." Besides. I had already been there once the day before yesterday for the groundbreaking ceremony, and now I will go again. I'm afraid that it will make people over there misunderstand, which may not be a good thing for your management over there. ”
"I know you have a point. But ......," Heinze said with a wry smile. "Xu Yi, I have never managed such a large place by myself, it is really ...... A little nervous. ”
Xu Yi smiled dumbly: "Didn't you still say very arrogantly some time ago that you would work hard to share my responsibilities and arrest the factory over there in Kalmar alone, and now you came to tell me that you were nervous? Okay, no one is born to be, you see that I have no experience in managing a chamber of commerce before, and now the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is not developing well?"
"That's different, you...... You've got talent, but I don't have ......."
"Whatever talent is not talented, management is not all the same. If you can manage hundreds of people in a workshop, then you will be able to manage the whole factory in Kalmar City. Xu Yi patted Heinze on the shoulder and said, "Okay, let's go." Today is the official start of the day, if you, the factory director, go late, it will really lose points. ”
"That'...... And I'm leaving?" asked Heinze, somewhat uncertain.
Xu Yifu shook his head with a smile, pushed him his back, pushed him out of the office, and then pushed him into the carriage that had been prepared a long time ago.
Seeing that the carriage Heinze was riding disappeared into the distance, Xu Yi shook his head and was about to go to the magic machine tool workshop to have a look, but suddenly caught a glimpse of another carriage coming from a distance, and it stopped directly in front of Xu Yi.
As soon as the carriage stopped, a familiar figure jumped down from the carriage and rushed directly into Xu Yi's arms with the fragrant wind.
Feeling two warm lips on his face, Xu Yi was surprised: "Steele, why are you here?"
Unlike the shyness when the two first confirmed their relationship, Steele, who has now adapted to the relationship between the two, has regained her sunny and enthusiastic personality, even in front of others, she will not hide it at all, and her style is so bold that Xu Yi sometimes blushes a little.
However, Xu Ye's personality in this regard is a little passive, but he prefers Steele's approach.
"I'm here with a special guest, you see. Steele smiled and pointed to the carriage.
"Special guest?" Xu Yi looked at the carriage and saw a middle-aged magician wearing a magician's robe, but with a shrewd aura that belonged to a businessman, jumping down.
Seeing Xu Yi looking over, the middle-aged magician smiled slightly and said, "Hello President Xu, let me introduce myself, I'm Gordon Eisenka." (To be continued......)
