Chapter 2: The Good Heir
When Freeman led a group of people to find a way to repair the small bridge, more than 300 kilometers away, the private domain of the Marquis of Southgate was also in full swing.
Seventeen large and small magic excavators worked at the same time, digging deep pits in the wasteland that the Marquis of Southgate had set aside as a magical industrial base, and then bulldozing the dirt and unevenness with magic forklifts, and soon turning it into an easy-to-operate engineering site.
President Cruise stood on the construction site, staring intently at the progress of the project.
In fact, since the cooperation between the Amrley Chamber of Commerce and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the Amritri Chamber of Commerce has done countless times in recent years, and it has long been familiar with it.
Even if he is not the president, the five most experienced engineering teams under his command can definitely be completed beautifully, and there will be no problems.
But President Crews still came and was on site every day to personally supervise the work.
Even if there was a rainstorm before, he did not leave the construction site, but waited on the construction site with his workers to pass, and then directed the project to continue as soon as possible, which fully reflected his extreme importance to this project.
Of course, this is also understandable, after all, this is the second major project that the Amrley Chamber of Commerce has received in the Malo Empire in addition to the construction of the road leading to the Falk Kingdom in the southwest province, so it is natural that full attention should be paid to it.
Moreover, this project is different from road paving, but to help the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and other chambers of commerce that responded to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to come to the Maro Empire to invest in the construction of factories and supporting workers' residences and other facilities, which belongs to the old business of the Amrley Chamber of Commerce - construction projects.
The Amrley Chamber of Commerce for road paving is naturally the best and has been fully approved by the Marquis of Southgate. Then on the construction works. Of course, President Cruise also has to reflect the strong advantages of Amrit's merchants. Strive to enter the construction market within the Maro Empire.
As one of the two major empires on the mainland, the Maro Empire is several times larger than the Lampari Kingdom and several surrounding countries combined in terms of land area and population, and it is undoubtedly a huge market that makes people drip.
If it can enter and master this market, then the Amritri Chamber of Commerce has every hope of becoming a super-first-class chamber of commerce on the entire continent.
Thinking of the kind, President Cruise felt a sense of gratitude to Xu Yi in his heart.
If it weren't for Xu Yi finding the opportunity to cooperate with the Marquis of Southgate and bringing the Amritra Chamber of Commerce in, I am afraid that the Amrley Chamber of Commerce alone would not know when it will really enter this market.
Of course. The people who need to be grateful the most should be the other chambers of commerce that have been called by the corresponding Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, especially those small magic machinery chambers of commerce.
With the strength of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, he can take over all the industrial plans in the magic industrial base in the private territory of Marquis Southgate, but Xu Yi took the initiative to call on other magic machinery chambers of commerce in the Lampari Kingdom and the Ruerson Kingdom, and pulled those chambers of commerce that were far inferior to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to come to the Marlo Empire to invest, so to speak, it can be said that the meat in his bowl was directly taken out for them to eat.
However, even so, there are actually some chambers of commerce that have questioned the move of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, feeling that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has no confidence in entering the Maro Empire to invest, so it needs to attract other chambers of commerce to share the risk.
However, such a ridiculous question was immediately refuted by a large number of magical mechanical chambers of commerce. And soon, more than 100 magic machinery chambers of commerce applied to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, hoping to respond to the call of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
In the end, Xu Yi personally jumped out of 23 chambers of commerce and came to the private domain of the Marquis of Southgate for a field trip. Then, except for one chamber of commerce, which temporarily withdrew, all the remaining 22 chambers of commerce expressed their willingness to come here to invest.
As for why the chamber of commerce withdrew temporarily......
President Cruise turned his head to look at a narrow dirt road in the southwest that had become extremely muddy and difficult to navigate after a rainstorm, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart and shake his head.
In the Lampari Kingdom and the surrounding countries, they have long been accustomed to the environment of flat road connections everywhere, and it is really extremely difficult to adapt to this extremely backward place in terms of traffic conditions, and it is no wonder that the representatives of that chamber of commerce will not have confidence in this environment and temporarily announce their withdrawal.
Thinking of this, President Cruise groaned slightly, and took a big stride with difficulty, coming to a young man who was staring at work on a magic excavator.
"Hey, Your Excellency, there's something I'd like to discuss with you. ”
The young man immediately turned around and said with a smile, "President Cruise, I've said it many times, please just call me by my first name, Franklin." Say, what's the matter?"
This young man is Franklin Southgate, the eldest grandson of the Marquis of Southgate, who is only nineteen years old this year, but he already has the title of baron, and has been recognized by the Southgate family as the third-generation patriarch, and has been carefully cultivated since childhood.
This time, the cooperation between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Marquis of Southgate was of great significance, and the Marquis of Southgate himself made various contacts with Xu Yi, the representative of this cooperation, and then sent his favorite grandson to stay in the territory to take charge of the project.
President Cruise has been with him for more than half a month, and after many contacts, he knows that although this Baron Franklin is only nineteen years old, he acts calmly and carefully, and can often make decisions on behalf of the Marquis of Southgate, so he will basically come to him directly to discuss anything now.
"You see, this is just a rainstorm, and the surrounding roads are already out of shape, which hinders the progress of our project, and will also have a great impact on the entry of other chambers of commerce in the future. So I think it's better to improve the condition of these roads first. ”
Baron Franklin frowned slightly: "But President Cruise, didn't you say that the paving of a road must take a long time to ensure the quality?
"No, of course it's impossible to build roads, but it can be done in a short period of time just to improve the situation. President Cruise shook his head.
"Oh, what needs to be done?"
President Cruise looked left and right, his eyes fell on a few hills in the distance on the Marquis of Southgate's private domain, and asked, "If I'm not mistaken, those mountains must be stone mountains, right?"
Baron Franklin glanced at it, thought for a moment, and nodded: "Well, those mountains are all stone mountains. But what does that have to do with what you just said?"
"It's good to be a stone mountain. President Cruise laughed. "My idea is very simple, just get some gravel down from those mountains, and then put some cushions around it, and then spread some sand into it, and then I can make these roads a lot stronger, and much easier to walk than they are now. Anyway, in the future, there will definitely be a road to be paved here, so it can be regarded as a roadbed in advance, which is not a waste. What do you think?"
Baron Franklin blinked a little dazedly: "I don't know much about road paving, but since you say so, President Cruise, I think it should be fine." But President Cruise, those mountains are complete stone mountains, how do you break the stones down from them?"
"Hey, this kind of thing is not difficult at all, there are so many magic construction machines here, not to mention a few such small stone mountains, even if they are a little bigger, it won't take a few days to be bulldozed directly." ”
Baron Franklin looked at the hills in the distance that should be more than a hundred meters high, and couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly, secretly speechless.
It was a mountain made of rocks, and according to what he had known before, it would take at least a thousand people to dig it up, and it would take several months to bulldoze it.
And now President Crews is saying that he can do it if he is given a few days, which is amazing.
However, in the past half a month, Baron Franklin has witnessed the various incredible super abilities displayed by the various engineering magic machines brought by the Amrley Chamber of Commerce, and has refreshed his cognition countless times in his heart, and it is no longer as difficult to accept it as it was at the beginning.
After a moment's thought, Baron Franklin nodded in agreement.
"Well, without further ado, President Cruise, you can arrange for someone to do it. The weather may be unstable during this time, and it may rain again at any time, so it will save a lot of effort if you can solve this road condition sooner. ”
"Don't you need to ask the Marquis's permission to dig these mountains?" asked President Cruise, hesitantly.
"No, I don't. Baron Franklin shook his head firmly. "Grandpa has put all the things in my hands here. I trust President Crews in your judgment and decision, so don't hesitate to take someone with you. If you need any other support, please ask me as much as possible. ”
President Cruise took a breath and glanced up and down at Baron Franklin, his eyes full of appreciation.
"Your Excellency, the Southgate family is a great blessing to have such an excellent heir as you. I think the Marquis must be proud of you, no wonder he sent you to preside over and coordinate the construction of this project in the first place. ”
Baron Franklin smiled slightly: "President Cruise, you have won the award." Grandpa put me in charge of this, and it was also a kind of exercise for me. If there's something I'm not doing well enough, please don't be polite and point it out. Also, please call me by my first name. ”
President Cruise laughed: "Okay, Franklin, this project is very important to the Marquis and President Xu, so I will definitely be very demanding, there must be a lot of things that need to trouble you, and you don't think I'm too annoying when the time comes." ”
Baron Franklin's mouth cracked, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.
"How could it be. (To be continued......)
