"Is this a natural advantage for the traverser?"

Looking at Lumi's serious face but childish like a little human girl, the first thing that came to Xu Yi's heart was this strange thought.

Because of the racial war more than 3,000 years ago, although the human race took away the control of the entire Sainz continent from the elves, the relationship between humans and other races has been poor.

Needless to say, it is not necessary to talk about the elf race, and the orc race is almost as powerful as fire and water.

As for the dwarf clan and the more legendary dragon clan or something, they disappeared directly from this continent.

Before Xu Ye appeared, humans had very little contact with the elves, and there was also little contact with other races.

After Xu Yi appeared, he unexpectedly came into contact with the elves, and worked closely with the Nightsong tribe and the Moon Shadow tribe, and now they have become close partners.

Later, Xu Yi reached the same close cooperative relationship with the orcs, so that the black rice wasteland that was originally occupied by the orcs has now almost become the backyard of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

Until now, there is even a dwarf who claims to have disappeared a long time ago in front of Xu Yi!

And this dwarf also wants to seek cooperation from Xu Yi!

With so many unusual things happening to him, it's no wonder that Xu also has such strange thoughts.

Of course, if you think about it, you will find that this is actually a series of interconnected things.

The reason for this series of incidents was that Xu Yi had the idea of cooperating with the dwarf tribe, so he ran to the dwarf tribe. will happen to meet Yanis. Then come into contact with the Nightsong Clan. and eventually succeeded in cooperating with the Nightsong Clan.

After that, it's a matter of course.

Even if this dwarf suddenly appeared in front of him now, it was also caused by this incident.

Xu Yi glanced at Elder Wendini and Elder Lisanya, who had retreated to the side and were talking in a low voice, thinking that Elder Wendini must have known that he had a close relationship with the other elves, so he would take the initiative to summon himself here and let the dwarf Lumi touch him.

And the reason why Lumi is willing to take the initiative to reach out to herself and seek cooperation, is what she did. Even the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce also produces magic machinery, which happens to be the same specialty as the dwarf clan.

"Hmm...... Lumy, I would like to welcome your idea, and with the help of the gnomes, who have a long history and deep research in magical machinery, our chamber of commerce's research in magical machinery will surely make great progress. But......" Xu Yi paused and asked, "Lumi, what do you want from us by choosing to cooperate with our Chamber of Commerce?

"Nonsense, you're not a businessman, I'm talking to you about business!" Lumi said loudly and confidently. "I'm working with your Chamber of Commerce. The request is that you can build a magical ship that can enter the deepest part of the Endless Sea, as I wanted!"

"Is it a magic ship that can sail the ocean?" Xu Yi glanced at Lumi in surprise and thought for a moment. Understood. "If I'm not mistaken, you're trying to go deep into the Endless Sea to find your people?"

"Hmm. Lumi nodded, her expression darkened. "Everyone else in the family is dead, and now I'm alone. There is no point in staying on the continent of Sainz, so I want to see if I can go deep into the Endless Sea to find another continent and my people. ”

Looking at the gloomy and lonely look on Lumi's little face, Xu Yi sighed lightly in his heart.

Although the elven clan is relatively rare on the Sainz continent now, there are three tribes that Xu Yi knows now, with a total of more than 5,000 people.

And the dwarf clan has only known Lumi until now, not to mention an entire tribe, not even a single family.

Moreover, for more than two years, there has been no news of the dwarf clan in the entire Sainz continent, so I wonder that there is only one dwarf left in the entire continent now.

This sense of loneliness can be imagined.

"Did you come up with this idea when you learned about the news that our Chamber of Commerce was making a magic steamer?"

"Yes. Although I have not seen your Chamber of Commerce's magic ship, I asked Wentini to gather a lot of information about your Chamber of Commerce's magic ship for me, and I know that your magic ship is made of steel all over, very strong, and large. I think such a ship would be able to sail far at sea, and it should help me find my people better. Lumi replied.

"Thank you for your compliment to our Magic Steamer. But Lumi...... To be honest, based on the current R&D progress of our Chamber of Commerce on the Magic Steamer, I don't think they are strong enough for deep-sea ocean navigation. ”

Lumi's eyes widened suddenly, and her expression was a little eager: "Isn't that enough? ”

"There were many of your people at the time, and they could bear some of the losses, but Lumi, you have only one. See what I mean?"

Looking at Xu Yi's serious eyes, Lumi was stunned.

"Human, you...... Are you concerned about me?"

Xu Yi was stunned: "Hmm...... I'm just on the safe side. You see, ocean voyages are not easy, and the dangers at sea are unpredictable, so in order to be on the safe side, you must be fully prepared to do so. You are only one person now, and if something happens to you and you encounter misfortune on the sea, it will be all over. Am I right?"

Lumi looked at Xu Yi in a daze for a while, then suddenly threw herself forward, opened her arms and hugged Xu Yi hard, and said happily: "The elder is really right, not all human beings are bad people." Great, man...... No, your name is Xu Yi, Xu Yi, you are a good person, I like you. Originally, I just wanted to use some of my clan's knowledge of magic machinery to cooperate with you, but now I am willing to fully share all the research results of my clan with you!"

Looking at the joyful smile on Lumi's face, Xu Yi couldn't help but laugh.

He just raised his concerns to Lumi out of the usual cautious thinking of a mechanical engineer, but he didn't expect to be moved by Lumi.

But of course this is a good thing, so Xu Yi did not defend himself, and smiled: "Yes, it is my honor to be able to gain your trust." But Lumy, I still have to remind you that it takes a long time to develop a magic steamer that is truly suitable for ocean voyages, and it takes a lot of time to prepare for an ocean voyage, which may add up to at least five years or more, are you willing to wait?"

Lumi nodded vigorously: "Of course I do." I've waited for a hundred years, so what's the point of waiting another five or ten years?"

"She's at least a hundred years old......

Strange thoughts flashed through Xu Yi's mind, and he discussed specific cooperation with Lumi.

In the end, it was agreed that Lumi would join the Magic Research Institute of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, mainly responsible for the research work of the magic ship.

It just so happens that the new flying business is just starting to develop the ocean shipping industry, and there is a huge shortage of talents in this area, and Lumie is extremely eager for ocean liners, and this cooperation can be said to be a great joy for all.

When talking about Lumi's reward for joining the Magic Research Institute, Lumi originally felt that she didn't need it, but Xu Yi insisted on giving it.

However, when it came to the specifics, Xu also asked about Lumi's magical prowess so that he could determine the salary standard for her, but he was taken aback.

This female dwarf, who looks small and looks like a little human girl, actually has the strong strength of a third-level great magician!

"Isn't that weird?" Seeing the shocked expression on Xu Yi's face, Lumi snorted lightly, looking proud. "We gnomes are all magical geniuses, otherwise why would we have such a deep research on magic machinery? You know, even the most powerful magic battleship of the elves was designed and built by our dwarf clan with them. Don't believe you ask Wentini. ”

Xu Yimulan turned his head to look at Elder Wendini, who smiled and nodded at him.

After staying for a while, Xu Yi returned to normal.

When he looked at Rumie again, Xu Yi was suddenly overjoyed.

In this way, doesn't it mean that the Magic Research Institute of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce now has to add an additional powerful magician at the level of the Great Magician in addition to the Great Magician of Truqi?

If Xu Yi himself is counted, then there are three great magicians!

Not to mention, there is also Camila's Magister Cun Zài!

Such a strong lineup of magicians should be unique among the chambers of commerce on the entire Sainz continent, right?

Xu Yi was amazed by Lumi's magical prowess, and Lumi was even more shocked by the salary Xu Yi offered her.

"10,000 gold coins a year, and an extra bonus?" Lumi looked at Xu Yi with wide eyes, his face incredible. "Is it so profitable to join your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce? If I knew this was the case, I should have joined a long time ago! If I could have 10,000 gold coins in my hand now...... No, even five thousand gold coins is enough for me to build a ship myself!"

"No, no, no......" Xu Yi waved his hand again and again. "Lumi, don't be impulsive. You're now the most important special researcher in our New Flying Chamber of Commerce's Magic Research Institute, and you can't put yourself in danger because of your own impulses. If something happens to you, it will be a huge loss for our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Rest assured, in just a few years, we will be able to develop a powerful enough magic ship to carry you to explore every part of the Endless Sea, and let you search the whole world to find your people, okay?"

Lumi's big eyes twitched and she nodded with a smile.

"Okay. Now that I have such good conditions, of course I will cherish myself. ”

Xu Yi breathed a sigh of relief: "That's right." ”

Elder Wendini and Elder Lisanya in the distance didn't know when the conversation would end, but seeing that Xu Yi and Lumi were discussing tentatively, Elder Wendini came over and smiled at Xu Yi, "President Xu, can you talk about the cooperation between us now?" (to be continued......
