(Suddenly I found out that the "Cantona Empire" had appeared several times before...... The previous one is not easy to change, and I will pay attention to it in the future, so forgive me. ）

――――――――

Although Cantona has become the president of a well-established chamber of commerce, after all, he is only an ordinary peasant outside Bonta City, and his knowledge is limited, and the information he can obtain is also limited, so he can't understand what connection there is between the victory of the Ruerson Kingdom in the Candela Empire and the sudden change of attitude towards him by the Marquis of Southgate.

But the Marquis of Southgate himself, of course, knew it.

When President Cantona approached Riley, the Marquis of Southgate was discussing the war between the Kingdom of Ruerson and the Candela Empire.

"According to various intelligence, the key reason why the Candela Empire has repeatedly suffered defeats on frontal battlefields is that the Ruerson Kingdom is equipped with a large number of military magic machines, so the combat effectiveness of the army is far superior. And this military magic machine that plays a key role is revealed to be from a small chamber of commerce in the Duchy of Stantin, which was not well known before. ”

The person who said this was a middle-aged man with a square face, a stern expression, and a very dignified look.

After saying this, he paused, and glanced at the Marquis of Southgate meaningfully.

"Marquis Southgate, although this small chamber of commerce is not well-known in our Marlo Empire, I think you know it very well. ”

"Duke Roosevelt, you must be talking about the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. Marquis Southgate smiled slightly, not so surprised that Duke Roosevelt, who held great power in the military headquarters of the Marlo Empire, suddenly brought the topic to himself. "Yes, I do know about the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but if I know it very well...... It can only be said that he knows a little better than the rest of the empire. But it is not particularly detailed. ”

Duke Roosevelt frowned: "But I heard that you have personally visited the Duchy of Stantin twice before and after. Then he introduced this new flying chamber into his own private territory. Now it seems that you are still cooperating with this new merchant and some small chambers of commerce from other countries to set up factories on your private territory?"

"Yes, there is such a thing. Marquis Southgate nodded.

"So...... Marquis of Southgate. How much do you know about the military magic machinery of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce?" Duke Roosevelt asked.

"Would you believe me if I said I didn't know anything about military magic machinery?" Marquis Southgate spread his hand, shook his head, and sighed, "I was first interested in the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but I only accidentally came into contact with all kinds of household magic machines produced by their Chamber of Commerce. Later, I found the cooperation of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and introduced them to my private territory, but it only involved domestic magic machines, and had nothing to do with military magic machines. ”

"Really?" Duke Roosevelt narrowed his eyes.

Marquis Southgate turned his head to look at a kind-faced middle-aged man on the other side.

"Regarding the introduction of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and other merchants, I have reported to the Imperial Ministry of Commerce and the Noble Realm Administration Office under the Council of Nobles, and Count Demplo should know. ”

The middle-aged man with a kind face smiled and nodded: "Yes, the Marquis of Southgate has submitted a complete application for filing in the Ministry of Commerce, so the Ministry of Commerce is very clear about these things." Including the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the chambers that are now expected to be invested and operated in the private territory of the Marquis of Southgate are all legitimate chambers of commerce from the Kingdom of Lampari and the Duchy of Statine with legal procedures, and there is no problem. ”

Duke Roosevelt glanced at Earl Temple, frowning slightly, a little dissatisfied in his heart.

He wasn't interested in what the Chamber of Commerce was doing on Marquis Southgate's private domain, he was only concerned about what the cooperation between the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and the Marquis of Southgate was involved involving.

Or to be more precise. There is no cooperation involving military magic machinery.

After the two invasions of the Candela Empire against the Ruerson Kingdom suffered a crushing defeat, the role played by the military magic machinery in these two invasions of the Ruerson Kingdom against the Candela Empire immediately attracted the attention of all the countries on the continent.

As the only enemy of the Candela Empire on this continent. Naturally, the Maro Empire paid more attention to this.

He approached the Marquis of Southgate on behalf of the Ministry of War this time, hoping to get more information about military magic machinery from the Marquis of Southgate.

However, the attitude of the Marquis of Southgate was not so cooperative, which made him a little dissatisfied.

After a moment of silence, he calmed down, let the expression on his face become a little more stern, and stared straight at the Marquis of Southgate.

"Marquis Southgate, the significance of military magic machinery is very important, and the Imperial Military Department attaches great importance to it. So I hope you can cooperate with the military department and try to provide accurate information. ”

Marquis Southgate glanced at Earl Demplo next to him, saw him nodding slightly, understood in his heart, and after a deliberate pause, he nodded: "Well, as a citizen of the Empire, it is appropriate to contribute your own strength to the Empire." But I really don't know much about military magic machines, so I can't provide much specific information. ”

Hearing this, Duke Roosevelt's face sank.

The Marquis of Southgate, however, changed his mind.

"But I can act as an intermediary to get in touch with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for the military department, what do you think?"

Duke Roosevelt's expression immediately softened, and he smiled: "If that's the case, of course it's better." Well...... The military department takes this matter very seriously, so I hope that you can get in touch with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce as much as possible. ”

"No problem. ”

Seeing that the Marquis of Southgate agreed, Duke Roosevelt did not talk nonsense, and immediately said goodbye to the Marquis of Southgate and left.

After leaving the Marquis of Southgate and the Earl of Temple, the Marquis of Southgate was silent for a while, frowned and asked the Earl of Temple, "Your Ministry of Commerce is very cooperative this time." ”

Count Demplu looked up to the sky and snorted: "This is the personal instruction of His Majesty the Emperor, but no one dares to ignore it." ”

The Marquis of Southgate was shocked: "Even the Emperor Xià was alarmed?"

"That's right. Earl Templefly glanced at the Marquis of Southgate, and his expression became stern. "Lord Marquis, you should know very well. For the Empire. On this continent, only the Candela Empire could be called our enemy. But such a one, we must admit its formidable enemy. But just because of the military magic machine, it suffered a crushing defeat in the small country of the Ruerson Kingdom. What do you think...... Would His Majesty the Emperor not pay attention to this?"

Marquis Southgate was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but nod.

"Well, that's right. It's really incredible to say, the Third Legion of the Candela Empire can already be regarded as the elite of the Candela Empire, but it has no power to fight back in front of the army of the Ruerson Kingdom, which is also unbelievable. ”

At this, the expression on the face of the Marquis of Southgate became strange.

"Speaking of which...... At first, I just took a fancy to the useful household magic machines produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, so I thought about pulling them over. But I didn't expect it. This time, I actually pulled a big fish......"

Count Demploo smiled and said, "The matter of military magic machinery is a headache for the military department, compared to me, I care more about the household magic machinery you mentioned. Lord Marquis, you are the one who knows these things best, do you think they have a future within the Empire?"

"Of course!" said Marquis Southgate, whose expression was immediately grim. "I'm 100% sure that with the convenience of these home-based magic machines, they're guaranteed to be welcomed by everyone in the Empire. I can even assert that within a few years, the empire will be full of these domestic magic machines!"

"Is that so?" said Count Temple, touching his chin and thinking for a moment. Approaching the Marquis of Southgate, he said, "Then Lord Marquis." On behalf of the Ministry of Commerce, I would like to formally request you to act as an intermediary to help me contact with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. ”

"No problem. ”

Compared to facing Duke Roosevelt just now, this time the Marquis of Southgate promised without hesitation.

###

Xu Yi glanced at the tall stack of invitations stacked in front of him by Tvesty and pointed to the trash can in the distance.

"Throw them all away. ”

"All?" Tvesty asked in surprise.

"Well, all. Xu Yi nodded, and then added. "If there is such a thing in the future, you don't have to show it to me, just throw it away. ”

"Oh. ”

Tvesti answered, picked up the stack of invitations again, and threw them all into the trash.

Seeing her movements, Xu Yi smiled with satisfaction.

That's the strength of Tvesty as an elven girl, she is actually much more obedient than her human subordinates, and she will never ask more nonsense.

If it was Kennard, it would definitely make Xu Yi understand why he did it now.

In fact, the reason for this is very simple, it's just that Xu Yi is too lazy to go.

During this time, the invitations that flew to the various high-level leaders of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce were like snowflakes, and as the president, the invitations Xu Ye received were even more exaggerated.

Although these invitations were sent out by many big people, and there may even be many big people from the Candela Empire and the Maro Empire, Xu Yi didn't want to pay attention to them.

This situation was also something he had expected a long time ago, since the Ruerson Kingdom had performed so well in the previous two invasions against the Candela Empire, it was natural that the military magic machinery that shone in it would attract the attention of countless people.

It stands to reason that the New Flying Chamber, which produced these military magic machines, would of course be the focus of everyone's attention.

It can be said that the current Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has perfectly understood that the war between the Ruerson Kingdom and the Candela Empire has made a name for itself on the entire continent, making the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce truly a well-known chamber of commerce in the entire continent, and successfully completing Xu Yi's previous goal.

But Xu Yi was not carried away by this.

It is very good to make the reputation of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce on this continent, but Xu Yi's purpose is not to sell military magic machinery, but to let everyone know about the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce after knowing about the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and then understand the civilian magic machinery mainly produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

And the problem that is currently bothering Xu Yi is how to shift the attention of these people from military magic machinery to civilian magic machinery. (To be continued......)
