Chapter 63: Open up the entire southern sea
Leslie put down the telescope in her hand and nodded in satisfaction.
The Magic Rocket Team that was launched was close to two hundred meters away from the nearest ship of the Candela Empire's Royal Fleet, and it did not cause any substantial damage to them, which made him very satisfied and relieved.
Even if Leslie didn't take the combat effectiveness of the Candela Empire's royal fleet in mind at all, the other party represented the Candela Empire's military after all, and if it really caused damage to the other party, it would be equivalent to declaring war on the Candela Empire.
No matter how bold Leslie was, he couldn't have done such a crazy thing.
"Lord Leslie, since we have already escaped, why do we have to fire some magic rockets to scare them? ”
The lookout on the side took the telescope handed over by Leslie and glanced at the situation in the distance, a little worried.
Leslie laughed, thinking to herself that you asked me, I don't know who to ask yet.
If he thinks and judges reasonably, it is obvious that he should honestly not have any conflict with the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire.
Since you don't want the other party to get on the boat to do any search, it's a very good choice to run away.
Then if you have already escaped, you should simply run away.
No matter how much the Candela Imperial Royal Fleet tried to find trouble, how could it be so easy to find them in this vast sea.
What's more, the speed difference between the ships of the two sides is so far, even if it is in case of encounter. It was impossible for the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire to catch them.
The guys who believe in the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire aren't stupid either. After seeing the speed difference between the two sides. Will definitely give up the idea of continuing the pursuit.
But now they had attacked each other as they fled, albeit only as a warning, but this had made the whole thing completely different from what had happened.
If it was just an ordinary routine official duty that the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire tried to search and warn the escort fleet of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce before, then now as soon as these dozens of magic rockets are thrown out, it becomes a naked attack on the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire, which is equivalent to a move to challenge the military of the Candela Empire.
The Candela Empire, for its part, will definitely not tolerate such a provocation. I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter.
What's worse is that just now Leslie also made his side's identity clear, telling the other party that they are the escort fleet under the escort team of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
Even if the Candela Empire can't find them on the vast sea, there is no problem in finding the head of the New Flying Chamber.
According to a somewhat strange saying that Xu Yi often said, this is called a priest who can run away from the church.
So in Leslie's opinion, in fact, the series of actions just now can be said to be unnecessary, and can even be regarded as very stupid.
But this series of actions is ...... But it was from Xu Yi's instructions.
When he set out from the Duchy of Statein, Xu Yi had a private conversation with Leslie, told him what happened after entering the waters of the Candela Empire, and made predictions and arrangements for what happened today.
Leslie agreed with Xu Yi's crazy idea at the time. But even today, when he actually did it, he still felt that this was really ...... Well. It's crazy......
Thinking of Xu Yi's confident smile before leaving, Leslie smiled bitterly, thinking that now even he couldn't see through this guy's thoughts more and more.
I don't know where this guy got the confidence to choose this approach, isn't he worried that he will really anger the Candela Empire, not only will he be retaliated by the Candela Empire, but it is more likely that the idea of opening the market of the Candela Empire and letting magic machinery enter the Candela Empire in a large area will also be destroyed?
When he was thinking about the long-term plan that Xu Yi said, the lookout next to him suddenly let out an exclamation.
"Lord Leslie, look!"
Leslie looked in the direction the lookout was pointing, and saw a shadow in the blue sky in the distance quickly flying towards him.
Seeing this familiar shadow, Leslie exhaled slowly.
"This guy is finally here. ”
Five minutes later, the magic airship landed steadily on the incomparably wide and empty deck of the medium-sized magic frigate that Leslie was on.
The entire hull of the medium-sized magic frigate sank slightly, but it still floated steadily on the surface of the sea, relieving Leslie's slightly nervous mood.
The hatch of the magic airship opened, and Xu Yi's figure was the first to jump out of it.
As soon as they saw Xu Yi, all the crew members on the deck immediately saluted him respectfully.
As the status of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the surrounding countries is getting higher and higher, and the influence caused by it is getting bigger and bigger, the awe of Xu Yi in the hearts of everyone up and down the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is also getting heavier and heavier.
Although Leslie would not have the same great respect for Xu Yi as an ordinary chamber of commerce employee, he couldn't help but feel a trace of emotion in his heart when he looked at Xu Yi's calm demeanor after getting off the magic airship, and the confident smile on his face.
When I first met Xu Yi, he was just the president of a small chamber of commerce that was not in the stream, and he was also a little magician who was not in the stream, and his status was very different from that of Leslie at that time.
Now, only five years have passed, but the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has grown into a super-first-class chamber of commerce that can have a huge impact on the Lampari Kingdom and all the surrounding countries, and Xu Yi himself has become a powerful great magician.
Such a change was something that Leslie did not expect at all.
He didn't expect that one day, he would actually become Xu Yi's subordinate and work for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in turn.
These feelings did not affect the smile on Leslie's face, he walked over and punched Xu Yi in the chest, and said with a smile: "Xu Yi, you are too late. If it had been earlier, we would have seen a good show. ”
"Huh?" Xu Yi looked puzzled.
Leslie recounted in detail what had just happened to the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire.
After listening, the expression on Xu Yi's face didn't change much, and he just asked, "Are you sure that none of the ships of the Candela Empire's Royal Fleet have been damaged, and no one has died?"
Leslie shrugged, "I'm not that unmeasured yet. Rest assured, I confirmed that they didn't have any substantial losses. However, Xu also ...... Even if they didn't suffer any substantial losses, I am sure that this action had completely aroused their anger, and I am afraid that it would be detrimental to our fleet and the entire Chamber of Commerce. ”
Xu Yi laughed: "Arousing their anger may not be bad for us, if I say that it will make my plan easier to unfold, do you believe it?"
Leslie shook her head, wanting to say that she didn't believe it, but when she saw Xu Yi's mysterious smile, she swallowed it back.
Since Xu Yi founded the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, he has done a lot of crazy things, but every final result always shows how correct his decision was at the beginning, and in the end, both he and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will get great benefits from it.
It's just that this time he angered the Candela Empire, one of the two major empires in the Sainz Continent, isn't he worried about playing with fire and setting himself on fire?
Xu Yi didn't pay attention to Leslie's thoughts, and asked him about the encounter of the escort fleet at sea during this time, and after learning that the escort fleet of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce had become the overlord within a radius of hundreds of kilometers during this time, and no pirate dared to challenge, he was relieved.
"That's good, but it's not enough. Leslie, I hope that you will be able to completely control the waters of the Candela Empire and the southern seas of the continent further east within three months. Xu Yidao.
Leslie frowned slightly: "I'm afraid it's impossible." If it's just a pirate, of course it's fine. But now that the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire has also been involved, and because of the decision to offend them to death, our activities in the waters of the Candela Empire will definitely be subject to certain restrictions. We can't really fight them......"
Xu Yi smiled and waved his hand: "Actually, my specific request is to hope to open up a route that runs through the southern seas of the entire Sainz Continent. It is guaranteed that there will be an absolutely safe route from our Duchy of Stantin to the southeastern coast of the Sainz continent, which will allow our chamber of commerce's transport fleet to transport goods to the southeastern coast of the continent without hindrance. ”
Leslie raised an eyebrow, "What? You're already preparing to go that far?"
Xu Yi smiled: "Don't forget, this time they took the initiative to send it to the door." ”
Leslie shook his head with a smile: "Okay, as long as the Royal Fleet of the Candela Empire doesn't come to make trouble, it won't be difficult to control the southern seas of the entire continent." Of course, I don't have enough men and ships at my disposal right now, and it's hard to control everything over such a large area of water, so you have to add more people and ships to me. ”
"This aspect of the problem is being resolved. However, Leslie, you should also know that it is impossible to control the entire sea area by ships, and the most feasible way is actually to control a large number of islands like Thundering Island, and build bases belonging to our Chamber of Commerce on the sea. In this way, not only will you have more control over the sea area, but it will also allow you to have more convenient supplies. ”
"Well, that's the safest way to do it. Leslie nodded. "But the investment is astronomical, are you sure you want to do it?"
Xu Yi opened his mouth, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and said with a smile: "Leslie, don't forget, the sea has infinite resources. Although the investment is large, the income is also huge. ”
Leslie couldn't help but roll her eyes.
He forgot that Xu Yi is the most standard businessman, how can he do a completely loss......-making business?
