Chapter 178: The Significance of Starting a Factory
Since the race war thousands of years ago, when humans took control of this continent from the elves, the living space of races other than humans has been continuously compressed by humans, and now there is almost no room for survival.
The reason why Elder Elucia chose to cooperate with Xu Yi and has always supported Xu Yi is that he hopes that through this opportunity to cooperate with Xu Yi, he can find a way to allow the elves to gain living space.
The previous cooperation with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce allowed Elder Elucia to gradually appreciate the changes that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, or to be precise, Xu Yi brought to the elves of the Nightsong Clan, and it was a positive change that made her feel happy and willing to see, which made her see the possibility of the elves and humans living together.
Elder Elucia was an Elven Clan Elder with great courage and foresight, and since she had seen the possibility from Xu Yi and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, she hoped to make this possibility even more efficient.
Specifically, it is to deepen the cooperation with Xinfei merchants, and at the same time, let the elves truly integrate into the life of human beings.
And business is the most complicated thing in human behavior that Elder Elucia thinks, and it needs to take into account countless things in all aspects, dealing with human relationships that the elves have always found troublesome and even disdainful to deal with, so after Elder Elucia made up his mind this time, he simply decided to let the people conduct their own business activities.
Starting a plastic processing plant directly is a great option.
In the previous cooperation with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the Yesong tribe has basically mastered all the processes of plastic processing, and after the special training of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the clansmen no longer take it lightly when they work as before. In terms of work efficiency and quality, it has begun to gradually approach or even catch up with human workers. That's why Elder Elucia has the confidence to start a plastic processing plant directly.
For Elder Elucia. This was the first springboard for the elves of the Nightsong tribe to truly integrate into human society.
If this plastic processing factory can gain a foothold in human society and develop steadily, then it means that the elves have the ability to live with humans.
And if humans are willing to accept and adapt to the fact that the elves are running factories, and treat the elves as ordinary humans, then Elder Elucia's purpose will be achieved.
Of course, Elder Elucia knew very well that the Nightsong Clan did not currently have the strength and environment to step into human society and directly open a factory. So she chose to set the address of this plastic processing factory in the rain valley, just to take this step towards relying on the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce first.
If Xu Yi was the president of the ordinary Human Chamber of Commerce, he would definitely refuse this proposal, because the Yesong tribe was only doing plastic processing for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce before, which was considered a small foundry.
For the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it is obviously easier to control the foundry without autonomy, and it is also more convenient for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to squeeze the value generated by the elves of the Night Song Clan.
But Xu is certainly different from ordinary human businessmen.
Rather than just making money, he cares more about realizing his dreams.
In order to establish an ideal magic-led magic industry system with the characteristics of Sainz on the Sainz continent, the elves are an indispensable force.
Human magic was originally learned from the hands of the elves, although later with the creative power of humans, the magic of the elves was gradually studied and evolved into various complex and powerful magic that humans now master. However, as the originators of magic, the elves have some unique aspects of magic that humans cannot grasp.
Therefore, Xu Yi has always hoped that the elves can also participate in the research of magic machinery. Like the dwarves, apply the special knowledge and skills of your race to the magic machine to further promote and develop the growth of the magic industry.
Xu Yi had always been unclear about Elder Elucia's attitude before, so he originally wanted to wait until the relationship between the two sides could be deepened before slowly proposing his idea to Elder Elucia.
Now, to Xu Yi's surprise, Elder Elucia himself offered to set up a factory and take the initiative to invest in the magic industry, and Xu Yi naturally welcomed it very much.
Of course, he knew better than Elder Elucia.
With the personality of the elves who are extremely bad at handling interpersonal relationships, and they don't know much about human society, if they really let them start a chamber of commerce completely on their own, it will only make them hit their heads in a human society that is countless times more complex than the elven society, and there is no possibility of success.
In order to keep Elder Elucia's hope for this temptation, even if she didn't offer it, Xu would ask Elder Elucia to start this plastic processing factory with her assistance.
The Falling Rain Valley covers an area of more than 10 square kilometers, and the area of a plastic processing plant is less than 1,000 square meters, which is naturally not worth mentioning.
Relative to the venue, the most important problem is to solve a series of formalities.
There is no precedent for the elves, or even all the alien races, to create a chamber of commerce in human society and then set up factories.
Although the legal system on the Sainz continent is not perfect, and neither the laws and regulations nor the enforcement force can be compared with those normal countries on the earth, since Elder Elucia hopes to use the establishment of a plastic processing factory to make the elves truly integrate into human society, it is best to follow the formal procedures.
It just so happened that what Xu Yi and Steele had done when they came to the Falling Rain Valley this time was to help the alien hires obtain an official status that could be officially recognized, and now that Elder Elucia had come up with such an idea, Xu Yi planned to report this matter to Sevigny again.
Based on the recent attitude of His Majesty the King and the Kingdom Council towards the heteroracial workers, it is believed that the approval of the heteroracial race will eventually be allowed to set up a chamber of commerce factory in the Lampari Kingdom.
It will take some time to get a definite answer, and before that, Elder Xu Yijian YƬ Elucia has prepared in advance.
For example, the location of the factory building, the production process of the factory, and most importantly, how to sell these products.
In the past, the elves of the Night Song tribe only needed to complete the plastic processing designated by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce every day. There's no need to think about anything else.
Now when you want to master these things. Elder Elucia spotted immediately. It is an extremely cumbersome and complicated thing to run a chamber of commerce and a factory like an ordinary human businessman.
Xu Yi didn't plan to do everything single-handedly this time, in order to let Elder Elucia have enough understanding of human business activities, Xu Yi only gave guidance at critical times, and most of the time he still asked Elder Elucia to learn and comprehend by himself.
Every time he saw Elder Elucia listening attentively and studying seriously, Xu Yi felt very strange in his heart.
Elder Elucia is over 600 years old this year, and now he is learning all kinds of basic business knowledge like a schoolboy in front of him. This scene is really a little weird.
However, Elder Elucia did not feel strange at all, she was extremely attentive every time Xu Yi explained the problem, and she would constantly ask Xu Yi more questions based on her own thinking.
When he first came into contact with Yanis, Xu Yi found that although the elves looked similar to humans, they were actually very different from humans in many aspects of personality and attitude towards things.
For example, for a human businessman like Xu Yi, maximizing cost savings is the most basic common sense.
But for the elves, if they really need to make something, the priority is whether they can make it perfect enough, and they don't care about the cost at all.
This point was also mentioned by Xu Yi. Elder Elucia nodded in understanding.
"As a chamber of commerce, the highest priority is to make a profit. Xu Yizhengse lectured to Elder Elucia. "Profitability is a very simple thing. Even if you put aside the cost of all aspects, the selling price of this product can still have a surplus. There's nothing wrong with striving for perfection, but as a factory leader, you have to prioritize profitability, so be sure to find ways to save money. ā
Elder Elucia nodded lightly, "Although I don't like this utilitarian idea, starting a chamber of commerce is inherently utilitarian. Since I chose to open this factory, I had to think about these pointless issues. ā
Xu Yi smiled slightly, thinking that Elder Elucia should be regarded as the most enlightened of the Night Song Clan, and he was actually willing to go against the general character of the Elf Clan and choose this path, and he could still accept the evaluation of utilitarianism.
This time, Xu Yi had only spent a few days teaching some of Elder Elucia's basic rules for entering the mall.
As for the rest of the things that are not easy to teach, it is up to Elder Elucia to explore and comprehend them on his own.
Over the course of a few days, Steele had gradually completed the formalities needed to grant representation to all heteroracial workers in the Rainfall Valley.
Together with the five elves of the Nightsong clan who currently work in the Armani Chamber of Commerce, the Crescent Chamber of Commerce that Steele now runs now has the agency rights of a full 1,276 xenoracial employees.
Next, it is necessary to wait for the Crescent Chamber of Commerce to report the identity information of these alien employees that it has already mastered, and then give them a new labor certificate, and these alien employees can be regarded as ordinary human workers, enjoying the protection of the laws of the Lampari Kingdom.
It was a big project to compile all the information of these different races, and although Steele was busy and said that he was very happy, Xu Yi carefully advised Steele to find some people who were interested in this work, so that she could make it a little easier.
Watching Steele hurriedly rush back and forth in the Falling Rain Valley to collect information and obtain agency, Xu Yi couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
In the past, Xu Yi was always busy, but Steele was very leisurely, and as a result, Xu Yi always had no time to spend with Steele.
But now that Xu Yi has enough free time, Steele is so busy with this job that he hardly even has time to drink saliva, let alone hang out with Xu Yi as before.
Comparing the changes before and after, it is really feng shui in turn. (To be continued......)
