Chapter 34: The Arrogant Candela Empire

As one of the two major empires on the mainland, the Maro Empire has a vast territory, and the private territories allocated by the various noble lords under their names are naturally much larger than those in small countries such as the Lampari Kingdom.

The Marquis of Southgate's private domain has a total of more than 500 hectares of effective farmland for this autumn's harvest, far more than any nobleman's private estate in the kingdom of Lampari.

However, when a week later, all the farmland on the Marquis of Southgate's private domain was harvested, and the final wheat weighed was less than 600 tons, and the average yield per mu was only about 150 catties.

Compared to the current yield of more than 500 catties of wheat per mu in the autumn harvest in the Lampari Kingdom and the Principality of Stantin, it is simply not worth mentioning.

The most important reason for such a huge disparity, in addition to the backward cultivation methods of these farmlands on the private domain of the Marquis of Southgate, which limited the yield, is, of course, the chemical fertilizer.

However, even if this production was only obtained, everyone in the Marquis of Southgate's private domain, from the Marquis of Southgate himself to the slaves who participated in the harvest, was extremely happy, and said that this year was a good year.

What's more, in the past, if you wanted to harvest this huge farmland of more than 500 hectares every year, even if everyone in the entire territory went together, it would take at least a month to be busy.

Even the slightest obstacle would have to extend this time even longer.

Prior to this, the Marquis of Southgate's personal domain had experienced several times when he wasted a lot of food because he could not harvest on time.

Now, with the help of the Cantona Chamber of Commerce, it only took a week. The 500 hectares of grain were completely harvested. There was so much time to believe.

And in the interim. The amount of manpower employed is also surprisingly small.

In the past, almost all the people in the territory were out at each harvest.

This time, the Marquis of Southgate had sent eighty men to help with the harvest, and their main job was only to untie the bags, wait for the wheat to roll off the magic harvester and fill it, and then carry it to the freight magic locomotive at the edge of the field to load it.

Compared to the extremely tedious and tiring work that they had to do with each harvest in the past, this time they were so much easier!

When President Cantona told the Marquis of Southgate that the 500 hectares of farmland would be easy to harvest, the Marquis of Southgate was a little unconvinced.

After a week, I saw with my own eyes that all the fields had been harvested. Hundreds of tons of wheat were already stacked in the warehouse, and the Marquis of Southgate was left with nothing but amazement.

It is no wonder that when he went to the Duchy of Drake, the Kingdom of Lampari and the Duchy of Stantin on the first two occasions, he saw along the way that almost all the fields with conditions had been reclaimed and all kinds of crops were planted.

At that time, he was still wondering, because he did not believe that there would be enough manpower in the three countries to complete the cultivation of these farmlands.

Now that he had witnessed the power of these farmland magic machines brought by the Cantona Chamber of Commerce, he no longer had any doubts in his heart.

So the day after the harvest, the Marquis of Southgate held a grand celebration banquet for the success of the autumn harvest.

At this banquet, the Marquis of Southgate signed a new agreement with President Cantona in the presence of everyone.

The content of this agreement, in fact, as mentioned by the Marquis of Southgate before, is about getting the Cantona Chamber of Commerce to help the Marquis of Southgate develop the rest of his private land. At the same time, the existing farmland is transformed to facilitate mechanized farming. They are also trying to reclaim more farmland.

It's just that the Marquis of Southgate has not seen it with his own eyes before, so he is still a little hesitant in his heart.

Now that he had experienced this autumn harvest, he no longer had any doubts.

This time, he signed a five-year cooperation agreement with the Cantona Chamber of Commerce in one go.

During these five years, the Cantona Chamber of Commerce will not only help the Marquis of Southgate in his personal domain to carry out a comprehensive development and transformation of farmland, but also assist him in training some people who are also proficient in operating all kinds of farmland magic machinery.

When he saw that the magic harvester could easily turn the wheat stalks in the wheat field into large piles of wheat grains, the Marquis of Southgate had already made up his mind to buy some of the farmland magic machinery from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and strive to master mechanized farming himself.

While the Cantona Chamber of Commerce assisted the Marquis of Southgate in the harvest of his private estate, some other Marlo Empire nobles who were friendly with the Marquis of Southgate also sent people to visit.

With the Cantona Chamber of Commerce's miraculous expression in the harvest, these nobles sent invitations to the Cantona Chamber of Commerce, hoping that the Cantona Chamber of Commerce would also assist them in completing the harvest.

Of course, President Cantona warmly welcomes this, but it is a pity that the current manpower of the Cantona Chamber of Commerce and the various types of farmland magic machinery it has are limited, but it is difficult to cope with it all.

In the end, he chose a few nobles who had a particularly good relationship with the Marquis of Southgate to accept it, and as for the other nobles, he simply pointed out a clear way for them - to directly purchase all kinds of farmland magic machinery from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

So as soon as the autumn harvest began, orders from the Maro Empire flew to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, thousands of kilometers away.

"Lord, this order is a bit unexpected. Kennard picked up the statistical report in his hand and said to Xu Yi with some surprise. "You see, I have counted the orders sent by the Maro Empire in the past few days, and found that in terms of magic harvesters alone, a total of as many as seven hundred orders have been obtained. This amount is even more than the magic harvester that the entire Duchy of Stantin currently has. ”

"Of course. The Maro Empire is not a small country like our Duchy of Stantin, which is almost negligible on the map, it is one of the two major empires on the mainland. Seven hundred units is just the beginning, if the current momentum continues, I think the magic harvesters we sell to the Maro Empire in the future will probably be seven thousand, or even more. Xu Yi said with a smile.

Kennard nodded lightly, and couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration: "It's great to be able to enter the Marlo Empire. After all, these surrounding countries are still too small, and the market is close to saturation. For example, there has not been much demand for farmland magic machinery in the past two years. Now that the Maro Empire has joined, we can step up our efforts in this area again. ”

Speaking of this, Kennard glanced at Xu Yi, and a hint of contemplation flashed in his eyes.

"Grown, you say...... If the Farmland Magic Machine is so convenient, why don't we use it to knock on the door of the Candela Empire? I don't think any country on the continent can refuse a way to produce more food on their farmland. ”

Xu Yi shook his head: "This is different. The main reason why we were able to make progress in the Marlo Empire was because the Marquis of Southgate was a man of understanding, and he treated us with a friendly attitude, so that the two sides would cooperate with us. But the Candela Empire ......"

Xu Yi frowned, looking a little dissatisfied.

"I don't know if it's my bias, but I always feel that everyone in this country seems to have a natural arrogance, which makes every attempt to cooperate with them full of obstacles. I don't like the attitude of these people in the Candela Empire, which makes me feel that they have no sincerity to cooperate at all. ”

Kennard smiled bitterly and nodded, "Elder, this is not your delusion. In fact, arrogance was inherently characteristic of the Candela Empire. The empire always sees itself as the ruler of an entire continent, and treats other countries with a bit of condescension. This has something to do with the history of the Candela Empire, and if you have time, you can check out their history. ”

"I don't have time to look up their history. Xu Yi shrugged. If they persist in this arrogant attitude, they will only suffer in the end. And as you should be aware, I've actually revised my plan for the promotion of the Candela Empire. ”

"I understand. But you, Grown, ...... Do you really want to do this?" Kennard frowned slightly. "I always felt ...... It would be dangerous to do so. If you are not careful, the entire Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will be damaged because of this. ”

"You think too highly of this Candela Empire. Xu Yi smiled and patted Kennard on the shoulder. "Do your thing, I'll go see how well the Escort is training. The key to the success of my plan lies with them. ”

"Hmmm......"

Kennard nodded slightly, still with a hint of worry in his eyes, and watched Xu Ye leave.

By the time Xu had left his CEO's office, Kennard sat back down and prepared to continue his work.

Now the various industries involved in the name of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce are very broad, and the things that need to be dealt with are even more complicated.

Although after the last reorganization, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has redivided the various industries under its name, and each part has reappointed its own management personnel, making it a lot easier for him, the CEO.

But with such a large scale, he, as the CEO, still has a lot of things to deal with.

Just as he was about to arrange for the magic machine tool department to settle the order of the Maro Empire's magic machinery for farmland, there was a strong knock on the door of the office.

Hearing a sharp and violent knock on the door, Kennard frowned slightly.

"Come in. ”

The door slammed open, and a middle-aged man rushed to the desk almost crawling and handed Kennard a crumpled letter in his hand.

"My lord, out of ...... Something is wrong!"

This middle-aged man is the director of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce who is in charge of intelligence gathering, and seeing his expression, Kennard's face sank slightly, and he took the letter.

After opening the letter and looking at it twice, Kennard's eyes were instantly round, and his eyes were full of surprise, even ...... There was also a hint of unease.

Sure enough, something big happened...... (To be continued......)
