Chapter 17 If only they were ordinary people

"I heard that you met with the presidents of the six chambers of commerce that produce magic fans?"

"Yes. ”

"Then I guess in addition to them, do you plan to pick out a few to meet with the guild presidents who produce other household magic machines?"

"There's this plan. ”

"Are you really planning to take these chambers of commerce with you to enter the markets of other countries?"

"I've always done that, and you should know that. ”

"Hmm. ”

Severny nodded slightly, no longer asking, and lowered his head to write something on the table.

For a moment, there was silence in the room.

Xu Yi looked at Sevigny, who was writing carefully at the desk, and found that she was obviously thinner than the last time they met.

Originally, her face was slightly rounded, although it was not beautiful, but it would make people feel kind when they saw her.

Now that I've lost some weight, my face has become a little sharper, but in terms of appearance, it's a little more beautiful than before.

It's just that this somewhat destroys her original gentle and soft temperament, and with her non-angry and self-authoritative look, it looks much more majestic than before, and it no longer makes people feel particularly kind.

This is actually not difficult to understand.

In other words, whoever has sat on the throne of the Lampari Kingdom for nearly two years will also bring some of the majesty that belongs to a queen.

Of course, in front of Xu Yi, Sevini is still very relaxed and natural as before, and Xu Yi still calls her by her name most of the time as before.

After a while, Sevini stopped writing. Picked up a piece of paper and handed it to Xu Yi.

"How about you take a look?"

Xu Yi took it a little strangely and took a look. It was found to be a will.

Will above the content. In the name of Her Majesty the Queen, Sevini instructed the Magical Industry Administration of the Kingdom of Lampari to provide more support to the various magic industry chambers in the Kingdom of Lampari in technology research and development, prompting these chambers of commerce to invest more in the research and development of magical machinery-related technologies.

In addition, Sevigny also set aside 50,000 gold coins from the royal family's income in his personal name to set up a Lampari Kingdom Magic Industry Technology Progress Award, which is specially used to reward chambers of commerce or individuals who have made breakthroughs in magic machinery-related technologies.

After reading this will, Xu Yi groaned for a moment and said, "Fifty thousand gold coins...... Seems like a little bit less, right?"

Sevini glanced at Xu Yi: "I'm not as rich as you." The 50,000 gold coins were squeezed out of the royal family's income. You can't get any more. ”

"That'...... Why don't I take some money out and strengthen the reward?" Xu Yiti said.

Sevini shook his head: "No, this is an award officially established by our Lampari Kingdom, and the participation of a private chamber of commerce like your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will destroy the nature of this award, which is not suitable." ”

Xu Yi thought about it, and said: "Then I will also set up a technological progress award in the name of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce......

Without waiting for Sevigny to answer, he shook his head and dismissed the idea.

"No, they are all engaged in the ranks of the magic industry, although our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce currently has an advantage, but doing so will still cause dissatisfaction among other chambers of commerce. I'm afraid it doesn't work out well. ”

Sevini smiled, "It's good that you understand." Actually, you don't have to think about it so much, what you're doing right now is good. If only these chambers of commerce could understand. As long as you are willing to invest in technology research and development, you can get the favor of your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, take them to enter the market of other countries together, and make a lot of money, then I think all chambers of commerce will attach great importance to technology research and development. ”

Xu Yi laughed: "That's right." When it comes to knowing businessmen, I know better than anyone else. Nothing really impresses businessmen other than profit. ”

Sevini glanced at Xu Yi deeply, and suddenly sighed softly: "Speaking of which, I haven't thanked you yet. ”

Xu Yi was stunned: "What did you suddenly thank me for?"

"Thank you for finding a new way for the kingdom's chambers of commerce engaged in the magic industry to continue to grow at a high speed. Sevigny said. "I've actually been thinking about this for a long time. After all, our Lampari Kingdom is a small country, and now the magic industry is developing rapidly in the Kingdom, but after all, it will be limited by the Kingdom, and it will be difficult to achieve better development. Now that you can take them out of our Lampari Kingdom, it will be the greatest help to the Kingdom. ”

Xu Yi smiled lightly, shook his head and said, "Even if there is no me, these chambers of commerce will leave the Lampari Kingdom sooner or later, I just advanced this time a little bit, it's nothing." ”

"If it weren't for you, wouldn't there even be a magic industry?"

Xu Yi shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "I said Sevigny, with the relationship between us, don't say these polite words, right?"

"How do we relate?" Sevigny stared at Xu Yi with sparkling eyes. "Xu Yi, what do you think is the relationship between us?"

Looking at Sevigny's serious eyes, Xu Yi frowned slightly, thought about it, and replied calmly: "At least in my mind, I have always regarded you as my friend. ”

"Why do you always refuse to come to see me if we are friends?" asked Severny. "If I hadn't written you a letter this time, wouldn't you have come to Anweimar City to see me again?"

Xu Yi chuckled dryly, avoiding Sevigny's gaze.

Severny was right, if it weren't for Severny's special trip to Count Revere to pass him a private letter, he would probably have returned to the Duchy of Stantin after a two-day stay in Bonta City, and would not have come to Anvimar City.

Although the meeting with the presidents of the six chambers of commerce is also very important, these things actually do not require him as the president to come out in person.

With the current status of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, as long as a word is released, it is guaranteed that the presidents of these six chambers of commerce will even travel thousands of miles to the Duchy of Stantin to discuss with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

Seeing Xu Yi's evasive eyes, Sevigny sighed lightly.

"Actually, I know, you think I've taken over the throne now. So you have to keep your distance from me, right?"

Xu Yi coughed lightly. Turn your head to look at Sevigny. After pondering for a moment, Zhengse said: "There are indeed considerations in this regard. After all, you are now the queen of the Lampari Kingdom, and it is impossible for you to get along with other people without any scruples as before. When I keep my distance from you, I am actually taking care of our friendship. If you get closer, it may not be good. ”

Sevini fell silent, looked at Xu Yi for a while, and nodded slowly.

"I understand that. I represent the Kingdom of Lampari and you represent the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. Although there is now a very close cooperation between our Lampari Kingdom and your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Both parties can maintain a very friendly relationship. But no matter what, there will always be a conflict of interest. For example...... Now there are many people in the kingdom who oppose continuing to establish a joint venture with your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. ”

"Against joint ventures?" Xu Yi had a hint of mockery on his face. "It means that they want to drive our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce out of the Lampari Kingdom, and they are doing it themselves?, but these guys haven't thought that without our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, in fact, the Lampari Kingdom will not even be able to produce more than five types of magic machinery on its own now?"

"I know that, but those people don't. Severny sighed, looking a little tired. "I am the queen of the kingdom of Lampari and I have to think about the interests of the kingdom. Choosing to continue to establish a joint venture with your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is a betrayal of the Kingdom's interests in the eyes of those people. ”

Xu Yi couldn't help but sneer: "Hey." The thoughts of these idiots, you don't have to think about it, it's nothing. ”

Sevini smiled wryly: "The problem is these idiots you are talking about. But it represents a large part of the kingdom. ”

Xu Yi looked at Sevigny intently for a while, looking at the exhaustion in her expression, and couldn't help but feel a little distressed in his heart.

In fact, Sevini is not yet twenty-five years old this year, but now she has to take on such an important responsibility for the entire Lampari Kingdom, but the rest of the Lampari royal family is dead, and the seclusion is secluded, and no one can help her at all, she can only bear it alone.

"Actually, don't worry, as long as the kingdom continues to develop, no one in the entire kingdom will dare to really oppose me. Severny suddenly raised his eyebrows, and the expression on his face was full of majesty again, and the whole person seemed to be awe-inspiring and inviolable. "If someone really doesn't care about the bigger picture, I don't mind letting them learn a lesson. ”

Xu Yi couldn't help but be stunned.

It was rare for Sevigny to appear in such a chilling manner before.

Is it true that if you sit on the throne for a long time, it will naturally become like this?

But it's a good change for Sevigny.

If she is still as gentle as she used to be, then sitting on the throne may not be a good thing.

Turning his head and seeing the slight surprise on Xu Yi's face, Sevigny suddenly sneered, his face was like a flower blooming, and he was instantly full of sunshine.

It seems that all of a sudden, she has changed from the majestic and murderous queen before to an ordinary girl next door.

Seeing her change so quickly, Xu Yi was amazed in his heart, thinking that no matter when, a woman was an existence that he couldn't understand.

Sevini glanced at Xu Yi and suddenly pressed a button next to his hand.

After a while, two palace maids walked in with some supper.

Xu Yi looked out the window in amazement and found that it was still dark at this time.

In the afternoon, after meeting with a few more people in the city of Anvimar, he accepted Sevigny's invitation to enter the palace after dinner, and now the two talked for a while, but they did not expect it to be so dark.

Xu Yi hurriedly got up and was about to say goodbye, but Severny pulled his arm and motioned for him to sit down.

"It's been a long time since you've seen each other, can you talk more with me before leaving?"

Looking at the hint of pleading in Sevigny's eyes, thinking of the relationship between the two just now, Xu Yi's heart softened, and he nodded and sat down again.

Sevini immediately showed a hint of joy, waved his hand, motioned for the two maids to go out, and then personally poured a glass of wine for Xu Yi, poured it for himself, and raised the wine glass to Xu Yi.

"Come, Xu Yi, how about we both forget each other's identities tonight and just chat between friends?"

Xu Yi smiled slightly: "Okay, it's rare that you're interested, how can I not accompany you?"

The two of them touched their glasses and drank them all.

Xu Yi was nothing, but Sevigny's pretty face immediately turned slightly red, looking overwhelmed, but it also made her face less majestic and more charming.

"Xu Yi, do you remember the first time we met?" asked Sevigny softly.

"Of course I do. Xu Yi replied with a smile. "At that time, it was the first time I came to Anweimar City, intending to sell the Farmland Magic Machine......"

......

The night was strong, the wine was fragrant, and the two were tasting while thinking about the past and chatting slowly.

I don't know if it's because the wine is intoxicating, or because the past is intoxicating, drinking and drinking, Xu Yi actually felt dizzy and dizzy, and after a while, he was so soft that he was on the chair, and the mud generally stopped moving.

Looking at Xu Yi, who was falling into a coma on the other side, Sevigny, who should have also fallen into intoxication, suddenly had his eyes lit up, although his face was still rosy, but he didn't see the slightest drunkenness.

After looking at Xu Yi with a complicated expression for a while, Sevigny clapped his hands lightly, and the two maids just now walked in.

"Move him into the bedroom and follow the plan. (To be continued......)
