Sevini looked at the statistical report in his hand, and his eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"It seems that this year, Bangta City will have more immigrants than last year. This is only a rough count of the foreign population in the first half month of the new year, but it shows that more than 50,000 people have entered the city of Bangta, and this does not include many people who cannot be counted at all. If you count them all, it may be close to 100,000 people. ”

Xu Yi smiled slightly: "Is there anything wrong with this? Bangta City is now short of manpower everywhere, and relying on the local residents of Bangta City alone will definitely not be able to meet such a large manpower gap, and it will inevitably need the addition of outsiders." Don't forget, at the peak of Nebangta City last year, there were more than 200,000 foreigners. ”

"But judging from the current trend, this year will far exceed the number of 200,000, maybe ...... It is also possible that it will exceed 300,000. Severny shook his head, worried.

"The more the merrier. Xu Yi shrugged his shoulders indifferently. "Not only our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but I think all the chambers of commerce in the city will probably be very happy with this situation. There is no way, there are too few people who can use it. ”

Sevigny glared at her: "You don't need to care, of course you feel relaxed." You must know that the total local population of Bangta City is less than 100,000, but now it has poured in 200,000 at once...... Even 300,000 people from other places, as the lord of the city, I really feel very stressed. ”

"It's a good thing to be stressed. Xu Yi laughed. "Dear Royal Highness, the more pressure you have, the more you can show that your abilities are outstanding? Suppose there will be an influx of more than 300,000 immigrants in Bangta City this year. So the total population ...... It's even possible to surpass Anvimar City?"

Sevini nodded slightly: "Hmm." According to last year's statistics, the permanent population of Anweimar City is about 200,000, and if you add the foreign population, it will probably remain at about 400,000. ”

"So, if you can lead such a city to develop peacefully and normally, it would be an admirable thing. If you can do this well, I think even those who oppose you can only express their admiration for your ability to handle government affairs. This will help you get to the throne. Xu Yi said with a serious face. "On the throne?" said Sevigny with a wry smile. He glanced at the report in his hand again, and sighed softly: "In this preliminary statistical report of the foreign population, a very strange problem can be found. That is, this year, it is estimated that the foreign population is from the northwest and northern provinces of the kingdom, to be precise, from the kingdom near the border of the kingdom of Sark. ”

Xu Yi narrowed his eyes and snorted softly: "Although the civilians on the northern border are not of high status, it does not mean that they are stupid. Rather than stay there and be exploited by a certain prince to the point where he can't even make a living, and his life may be in danger in the future, it is better to find a way to escape there. And our city of Bang Ta is one of the best choices. ”

Sevigny glanced at Xu Yi. He looked a little surprised: "Did you get any news from where?"

Xu Yi shook his head: "No, I didn't pay special attention to this aspect of the problem. Only a few days ago. The relatives of two researchers from our Chamber of Commerce's Institute of Magic have relocated from the northern border with the intention of settling in Bonta City. When I met them, I asked them a little bit about the situation in the north and why they moved to Bonta City. ”

"Two researchers, Dean Evita and Senior Researcher Akali, right?" asked Sevigny.

Xu Yi was stunned: "Your Royal Highness, you know quite clearly." ”

Sevini smiled lightly, and did not answer the question in Xu Yi's eyes, but pointed to the report in his hand and continued to ask: "Then President Xu, the number of immigrants who may pour into Bangta City this year may exceed 300,000. Aside from the 200,000 people who were already working in Bangta City last year, are you sure you can absorb the extra 100,000?"

Xu Yi frowned: "This should be something that you, the city lord, think about, what does it have to do with me?"

Sevini showed a sly smile: "Who made your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce the closest partner of the City Lord's Mansion, and President Xu, you are the most powerful helper of my City Lord?"

Xu Yi shook his head helplessly: "I said the city lord, are you relying on me?"

"So what?"

Looking at Sevigny's rare playful smile, Xu Yi rolled his eyes and stood up.

"This matter is related to the entire Bangta City, not only our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and a Chamber of Commerce to resist, but also the group of guys outside. ”

The two of them left Sevigny's private office and went to the largest conference hall in the City Lord's Mansion.

At this time, the presidents of various chambers of commerce in Bonta City were seated separately in the conference hall, including not only President Cruise of the Amrley Chamber of Commerce, President Morgan of the Falcau Chamber of Commerce, President Ranko of the Saranque Chamber of Commerce, President Vincent of the Armani Chamber of Commerce and other super-large chambers of commerce, but also many presidents of smaller chambers of commerce.

Even the United Chamber of Commerce of Ireland, a small chamber of commerce in the city that has not yet completed two years, Vice President Kovatsch appeared at the conference table as a representative.

Of course, his place was arranged in a corner position, which was not conspicuous at all.

Seeing Severny and Xu Yi walking into the conference room on their front and back feet, the representatives of the presidents of the Chamber of Commerce, who had been talking about it, all stopped.

His eyes swept over Xu Yi and Sevigny, and there was no surprise on everyone's faces, but a knowing smile on their faces.

Xu Yi had a close relationship with Sevigny, which was something that everyone in Bonta City knew very well.

Although today's meeting was proposed by Her Royal Highness Queen Severny in the name of the Lord's Palace, it was a meeting of representatives of almost all the chambers of commerce of a certain size in Bangta City.

But of course, she will communicate privately with Xu Yi in advance, and no one will have any objections to Xu Yi's special treatment.

Not to mention that the entire urban renovation project of Bangta City is in charge of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, just because last year, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce actually surpassed the Salak Chamber of Commerce, the Falcau Chamber of Commerce, the Armani Chamber of Commerce and other old super chambers of commerce in Bangta City, and became the most taxed chamber of commerce in Bangta City, Xu Yi is eligible for this privilege.

Although the conference table was full of people and filled the room, the first seat closest to the left hand side of the chairman's seat was tacitly vacated by everyone.

Xu Yi unceremoniously sat down in this position, smiled and greeted several of the president's representatives around him, and then turned his head to look at Seviny.

Sevigny, who was condensed by the eyes of everyone around her, did not show the slightest nervousness, she had been the city lord of Bonta City for half a year, and she had now fully adapted to the position of the city lord, and when facing the representatives of the major chambers of commerce, her mentality was extremely relaxed and calm, not at all like a young girl in her early twenties, but more like a mature politician.

"Presidents and delegates of the Chamber of Commerce, Happy New Year. Sevini first said a blessing, then took out the text that had been prepared a long time ago, asked the assistant to distribute it, and began to give a short speech.

Although the speech is not long, the content is not simple.

In this short speech, Sevigny praised the contribution of the various chambers of commerce to the city last year, and then encouraged everyone to continue to work hard in the new year.

Next, she began to make specific requests.

For example, in the new year, the city lord's palace requires the major chambers of commerce to give priority to ensuring credibility and not causing any damage to the reputation of the entire city of Bangta.

Secondly, she also asked the major chambers of commerce to actively participate in the joint construction of Bangta City and give full play to their social responsibilities.

In this regard, Sevini praised the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and praised the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for its initiative to donate 100 medium-sized passenger magic locomotives to the City Lord's Mansion to strengthen the urban public transportation of Bonta City.

Hearing Sevigny's speech, the representatives of the presidents of the various chambers of commerce present immediately said that they would also learn from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

Among them, Morgan, the president of the Falcao Chamber of Commerce, offered to build a rescue station outside the city to help the residents of Bonta City in need.

President Vincent of the Armani Chamber of Commerce offered to provide a set of winter clothing and bedding for each of the elderly over the age of 60 in the city of Bontah, and would also provide support for the elderly who had no one to support them to ensure their basic livelihood.

As for other chambers of commerce, they have also proposed different forms of free funding according to the scale of their own chambers of commerce, which can be regarded as responding to Sevigny's call.

With that said, Sevigny quickly brought the conversation to the pragmatic ones.

The first point is how to absorb and solve the imminent influx of foreign population in Bonta City.

Hearing this question, the presidents and representatives of the major chambers of commerce who were doing it laughed easily in unison.

Everyone said that no matter which chamber of commerce is very short of people right now, everyone hopes that the more foreign population will pour into Bangta City, the better.

Not to mention 100,000 more than last year, even if it is 200,000 more, everyone unanimously said that they are fully confident that they will eat them all.

However, at this time, Xu Yi raised a question.

"Everyone, please calm down. Xu Yi stood up, looked around, waited for everyone to be quiet, focused his eyes on him, and continued: "I understand everyone's desire for manpower, and I also know the fact that all the chambers of commerce in the city are facing a shortage of people. But I want to ...... There is a very important issue that everyone has overlooked. ”

Everyone looked at each other, and President Morgan of the Falcao Chamber of Commerce frowned and asked, "What's the problem?"

Xu Yi smiled slightly: "The problem is that population is not equal to manpower. (To be continued......)
