Chapter 22: Guest
As soon as Xu Yi's voice fell, everyone was in an uproar.
"Ten gold coins, that's a lot!"
"Oh my God, what kind of change did this kid Orin make? and he was rewarded with ten gold coins at once?"
"If only I knew I would study it, but I'm very confident in the magic array. ”
"That's right, ten gold coins! If I can get this reward, I can give my mother a good rest for a while......"
......
You must know that these students only earn two silver coins for each magic circle they draw here, and if they want to get ten gold coins, they need to draw a full five hundred magic circles!
For the other students, whose families were far inferior to Orin, ten gold coins was a really big number.
Listening to the students' discussions, Xu Yi glanced at Heinze, who was stunned on the side, Heinze immediately understood, hurriedly walked aside, and after a while, walked over with a small paper bag that was hurriedly wrapped in his hand, and handed it directly to Oulin.
"Orin, this is your reward, you can take an inventory. ”
"No need, President, I only studied the magic array out of my own interest, and this reward ...... I don't want to. Orin shook his head and waved his hand, not wanting to accept the reward.
Although he is usually very proud, he also knows that he is estranged from these classmates because of his family background, and if he takes this award in front of everyone, it is even more likely that he will completely separate himself from everyone.
It wasn't a pleasant experience.
"Take it. This is a rule of the Chamber of Commerce, and it is not just for you. Xu Yi took the paper bag and stuffed it into Oulin's arms. "Come, count if there are ten gold coins in it?"
Seeing Xu Yi's resolute attitude, Ou Lin could only open the paper bag with an embarrassed face, poured out all the gold coins inside, and counted them one by one.
Seeing the golden coins shining in Orin's hands, the other students couldn't help but have their eyes shining.
Xu Yi smiled slightly, and raised his voice again: "Listen, I just said that this regulation is not only for Ou Lin alone, as long as any of you can provide a solution to improve the magic fan, you can also get this reward!"
"President, is it okay to do anything?" asked a tall boy with a raised hand.
"As long as it's related to the magic fan, it's an improvement on the magic fan. Xu Yizheng said. "Of course, this is without affecting your own work. If you patronize these things, but delay the work that you should complete and affect the production progress, then not only will I deduct the honorarium, but even according to the contract, I may directly dismiss you. ”
This bad guy has to do it first, otherwise these students will lose more than they gain if they are hot-headed and patronize the study of improvement solutions, but forget their most basic work.
The students looked at each other, suddenly bowed their heads in unison, and began to work in earnest.
Compared to before, their enthusiasm for work seems to have increased a lot.
Heinze glanced at Oulin, who had returned to his post and buried himself in work, and asked Xu Yi in a whisper, "Ten gold coins, is it worth it?"
Xu Yi smiled lightly: "Of course it's worth it." Heinze, you remember, research improvements like this are important for any commodity. This policy will continue in the future, and it will not be limited to the changes in the magic circle. In the future, maybe we will include the entire production process of the magic fan, and if there is an improvement in the shape design of the magic fan, we should also reward them and encourage them to do so. ”
Heinze said puzzledly: "Didn't you finish all these things? don't you think that the things you have studied are not as good as these boys who have not grown all their hair?"
"No matter how good I am, I'm just one person. There is a limit to the power of one person, but the wisdom of the masses is infinite. Don't underestimate these students, because among them, a great magical mechanical engineer will be born in the future. ”
Heinze looked at the students who were working in full swing across from him and shook his head slightly.
Why can't he see it?
Heinze was about to discuss the next step with Xu Yi when a shout suddenly sounded at the door of the wooden house: "Mr. Xu Yi." ”
Both of them were stunned, and they would call Xu Yi with such a formal title, it seemed that only the old butler of Viscount Leslie was right.
Looking back, who suddenly appeared at the gate of the wooden house, who was not the Brunei housekeeper?
Xu Yi hurriedly greeted him.
"Brunei butler, why are you here? is there something going on?"
The Brunei housekeeper glanced twice into the wooden house, and then took out an invitation card with gold trim from his bosom and handed it to Xu Yi.
"Mr. Xu Yi, on behalf of my host, Lord Viscount Leslie, I sincerely invite you to visit the Viscount Manor at noon today. ”
Xu Yi was stunned, and looked at each other with Heinze, a little unclear.
How could this Viscount Leslie, who didn't even show up when he rented the land, suddenly think of inviting Xu Yi as a guest?
###
When he saw Viscount Leslie, Xu was also slightly surprised.
Since he rented Viscount Leslie's land, Xu Yi naturally had to know a little about this Viscount.
Through Guò Heinze's many inquiries, Xu also knew that this Viscount Leslie was very famous in the aristocratic circle of Bonta City, and it seemed that he was just thirty years old this year, and it was said that because of his handsome appearance and strong family wealth, he was very popular with the noble ladies and ladies in the noble circle in Bonta City, and he was a famous playboy in Bonta City.
Xu Yi originally thought that this guy should have a little white face, and his demeanor seemed to be chic but was actually frivolous, and he was probably very arrogant, and he was by no means an easy person to get along with.
But after actually seeing him, Xu Yi found that his impression of him was a little biased.
The guy in front of him is indeed handsome, but his facial features are upright, his eyebrows are thick, his eyes are upright, and his complexion is not like the pale that is popular among nobles, but bronzed, and even slightly dark.
The whole person is tall and well-proportioned, needless to say, he is usually keen on sports and fitness, and he is by no means comparable to those delicate and frail ordinary aristocratic sons.
Just the first time he saw Viscount Leslie, Xu Yi immediately put away his contempt for him.
This Viscount Leslie is probably not the same as the few flying and domineering straw bale noble young masters I have seen by chance before.
While Xu Yi was looking at Viscount Leslie, he was also looking at Xu Yi, and seemed to be very interested in Xu Yi, and seriously looked at Xu Yi from above several times, and then pointed to the small table next to him: "Please take a seat." ”
Xu Yi respectfully bowed according to the etiquette of a commoner, and then sat down opposite Viscount Leslie.
Seeing Xu Yi's expression, Viscount Leslie smiled: "Don't be so restrained, I'm not as particular about those troublesome etiquette as those old men, just be casual." You see, I'm not entertaining you in the living room, so it's not a formal occasion, just treat it as a friend inviting you over for a light meal. ”
Xu Yi glanced at him, a little strange how he could be so polite to himself.
Purely from the perspective of identity, Xu Yi is just a very ordinary commoner, and the other party is the official viscount of the Lampari Kingdom, a real nobleman.
Although Xu also has the identity of a magician, in this continent, magicians are not very unusual, and ordinary magicians are not taken seriously.
In Bonta City, only a great magician like Camilla is respected by everyone.
What's more, Xu Yi didn't even pass the qualification assessment of the Magician Guild, so it was even less worth mentioning.
And if from a commercial point of view, Xu Yi rented the territory of Viscount Leslie, then he was even more subject to others, and he should be polite to Viscount Leslie.
"Lord Viscount, I don't know what you have to do when you suddenly summoned me?" Xu Yi couldn't help but ask.
"After that, come, let's eat first. Viscount Leslie waved his hand, but did not reply.
Xu Yi thought about it, simply let go of his mind, and enjoyed lunch under the greeting of Viscount Leslie.
As Viscount Leslie said, the place where he entertained Xu Yi was not the living room of this manor, but in a small cabin by a waterhole, and the meals used for hospitality were not particularly sumptuous and formal, but just a few cool side dishes.
Of course, these small dishes are extremely exquisite, but they are no match for any restaurant in Bonta City.
During the banquet, Viscount Leslie was very enthusiastic, greeting Xu Yi while chatting loudly, chatting with Xu Yitian for a long time, and it was not the same for a long time, which fully showed that he was far superior to ordinary civilians.
It wasn't until the lunch was finished and the servants removed all the utensils and served two glasses of juice that were just the right amount of juice that Viscount Leslie ended his idle conversation, glanced at Xu Yi, and suddenly said, "Xu Yi, I heard from the Brunei butler that your magic fan workshop has already started?"
"It's coming. Xu Yi's heart moved, took a sip of juice, moistened his throat and sorted out his thoughts at the same time, paused, and nodded: "Yes." ”
"I've also heard that your workshop produces a lot of magic fans every day, can you tell me how many magic fans I can produce a day now?" "Of course, if it's confidential, it's okay not to tell me. ”
Xu Yi smiled slightly: "This is not a secret. The current production capacity is tentatively set at 150 units per day, no more, no less. ”
"Oh, one hundred and fifty a day...... I've calculated that you've been working for three days, and that's 450 units. ”
"If it's still so smooth today, it's true. Xu Yi nodded.
"Then I have a doubt. Viscount Leslie looked at Xu Yi with great meaning, and continued to ask: "One hundred and fifty units can be produced every day, and won't there be four thousand five hundred units produced in a month? Do you think that so many magic fans can be sold? There are only about 3,000 households in Bangta City, I don't think every household will buy several magic fans to go back." ”
"Thank you, Lord Viscount, for your concern. Xu Yi smiled: "Actually, as you said, the sales of magic fans in Bangta City have become saturated, and it is difficult to sell more magic fans. ”
"Oh, so you still produce so many magic fans, aren't you worried that you won't be able to sell?"
"There is no one in Bonta to buy it, but there are still a lot of people outside Bonta who need it. Xu Yi replied with a smile. "Lord Viscount, to tell you the truth, in fact, we have more than 5,000 orders in our hands now, of which only a very small part comes from inside the city of Bonta, and the vast majority are from various villages outside the city. And every day that passes, the number of orders will increase dramatically, for example, this morning, I just received an order for a full thousand magic fans. Speaking of this, Xu Yi paused slightly, looked at Viscount Leslie's expression, and then said in a more aggravated tone: "It is worth mentioning that this order is from Kalmar City. ”
