Chapter 86: Governor of the Southwestern Province
While Xu Yi and President Cruise were discussing here, the other merchants from the Lampari Kingdom who came with them in the convoy were not idle.
In fact, many of the chambers of commerce that came to the Candela Empire to look for investment opportunities under the official organization of the Lampari Kingdom this time have been to the Candela Empire many times during this time.
These chambers of commerce are of course the most familiar with the southwestern provinces of the Candela Empire, which came from the Lampari Kingdom and was the first to come into contact with after entering the Candela Empire.
And most of these chambers of commerce that have come are actually doing to transport a large number of materials from the Lampari Kingdom here for sale.
In addition to the various household magic machines that have not yet been produced by the Candela Empire, there are many other products that rely on the magical industry system.
For example, the Armani Chamber of Commerce produced all kinds of low-cost clothing, but not only Hafre thought of shipping them to the Kandela Empire to sell.
In Canberra City, the capital of the South-West Province, clothes from within the Lampari Kingdom have long been the most popular item among ordinary people in Canberra City.
Just outside the city, if you look closely, you will find that many of the people passing by are wearing clothes made by the Armani Chamber of Commerce.
Of course, these clothes are not only cheap, the workmanship is good, although the fabric can not be compared with the name of the satin clothes, but the feeling of wearing on the body and touching the hand is very smooth and close-fitting, soft and comfortable, not much worse than those big nobles, big businessmen wear high-end clothes that often cost hundreds of gold coins a piece.
On top of that, the clothes are cheap, but the style is really good-looking. Wearing it on the body doesn't feel cheap at all. Nature is loved by people.
Especially those women who love to be beautiful. Before, there were no conditions and I couldn't afford to wear expensive clothes, but now I have such cheap and good-looking clothes to wear, how can I let them go.
Before coming here, Xu Yi had obtained an approximate number from the Armani Chamber of Commerce.
It is said that the Armani Chamber of Commerce has made a net profit of more than 200,000 gold coins in less than three months alone by peddling these low-end clothes to the Candela Empire.
And this is still without completely opening the Candela Empire market, if these low-end clothes can be sold to the entire Candela Empire, this net profit multiplied by ten is absolutely no problem.
And because of that. This time, the Armani Chamber of Commerce also sent representatives to come with Xu Yi.
If the agreement can be reached, the Armani Chamber of Commerce will invest in the construction of a garment processing factory in the southwestern province of the current Candela Empire, specializing in the local production of these low-end garments.
Not only will this avoid most of the tariffs, but it will also save on shipping costs and, of course, significantly increase profits.
Of course, the representatives of the various chambers of commerce who came with Xu Yi this time basically had this idea, and even the representative of the Night Song Chamber of Commerce, Deliel, also had the same idea.
As an elven clan, Deliel was naturally very conspicuous in this caravan composed entirely of humans.
And she doesn't shy away from it at all. Once the convoy had stopped, she was walking around the grocery market on the outskirts of Canberra, chatting with vendors and customers. It was as if I hadn't seen the surprised gazes cast by those people at all.
After some of the merchants in the convoy had finished processing some of the goods they brought, Delier returned to Xu Yi with an excited face while holding a thick notebook.
She was still holding a plastic basin and a plastic kettle in her hand, and when she saw Xu Yi's questioning gaze, she raised these two things proudly.
"These are all things that our Night Song Chamber of Commerce produces. ”
"Nonsense. Of course, I know that this is produced by your Night Song Chamber of Commerce, and there is no other Chamber of Commerce other than your Chamber of Commerce that can make plastic products. Xu Yi said angrily. "What I want to ask is, why did you go for a walk and come back with these two things?
"I'm doing market research. I asked a lot of people just now, and they all said that these plastic basins and kettles are very light and easy to use, and they are not easy to rust, which is much better than the iron basins they used before. But they also raised some small problems, which I wrote down and thought about how to improve when I got back. ”
"Oh, Deliel, you're good, you actually learned to do on-site market research, and you can improve the product at any time. Very good, keep maintaining this attitude, and your Night Song Chamber of Commerce will definitely be able to grow stronger. Xu Yi couldn't help but praise.
Deliel grinned: "Thank you President Xu for your compliment, we will definitely work harder." With that, he raised the plastic basin and plastic kettle in his hand. "Our people can have such superior living conditions now, but they all rely on these things, and if we don't make them better, of course we can't. ”
Xu Yi laughed, thinking that compared to the Night Song Clan, the shortcoming of the Moon Shadow Clan was that he still refused to completely put down the elven clan's shelf and listen carefully to his opinions.
If the Moon Shadow Clan could have such an attitude, then their development would be much easier than that of the Nightsong Clan.
Just as he was about to say a few words to Deliel, a horse-drawn carriage suddenly drove out of the south gate of Canberra in the distance, and came to a stop where the convoy was.
The carriage door opened, and a young man in his mid-thirties jumped from it.
He looked left and right, fixed his eyes on President Cruise beside Xu Yi, and strode over.
"Viscount Tourrell, are you here to meet us?" Before he could get closer, President Cruise raised his hand in greeting.
The young man known as Viscount Tourrell had a friendly smile on his face, nodded in response, and his gaze fell on Xu Yi, who was standing close to President Cruise.
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be President Xu of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, right?"
Xu Yi smiled and stretched out his hand to him: "Hello, Viscount Turrell, I am Xu Yi." ”
Viscount Turrell stretched out his hand and shook Xu Yi's hand gently: "Xu Hui has come from a long way, and it has been hard." Then he turned to President Cruise. "What about the other chamber of commerce representatives of your Lampari Kingdom?"
"The people have arrived. Viscount Tourrell, may we go to see the Governor?" asked President Crews rhetorically.
"Now that everyone has arrived, don't delay any longer. Come with me to the Governor. Viscount Tourel nodded.
The group cleaned up. They each drove into Canberra City in a magic car.
Viscount Tourrell had been out of town in a carriage to greet the crowd. When he entered the city, he claimed to be an escort and guide, and squeezed into the magic car in which Xu Yi and President Cruise were riding.
When the magic car was driving through the streets of Canberra City, Viscount Tourrell suddenly patted the seat under his buttocks and sighed softly: "The last time I went to Wimbledon, I was fortunate enough to ride in the new magic car purchased by Earl Merlot, and I thought that the magic car was indeed much better than the old horse-drawn carriage. It's a pity that there is no place to sell magic cars in Canberra, and it is not convenient to buy one from Wimbledon and bring it back. ”
Xu Yi and President Cruise looked at each other and smiled. Xu Yiying said: "If the Governor agrees, our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is very eager to open a magic locomotive sales center in Canberra City. If Viscount Tourel is interested, he can make any purchase in the sales center. ”
"Really?" Viscount Turrell turned his head to look at Xu Yi, smiled and nodded: "If that's the case, then of course it's good." But as far as I know, it's not enough to have only one sales center, right? President Xu, do you have any plans for this in this regard?"
"This will depend on the results of the specific deliberations with the Governor. Xu Yidao.
Viscount Tourrell sighed and asked no more.
About ten minutes later, the Magic Sedan drove the group to the Governor's House, located in the heart of Canberra's north.
It was the seat of the Viceroyalty of the Southwestern Province of the Candela Empire. The size of Canberra City is comparable to that of Anwemar, the royal capital of the Lampari Kingdom, and this Governor's House looks like it. It is even larger than the royal palace of the Lampari Kingdom, and it is also more magnificent.
From this point of view alone, it is enough to prove that the Candela Empire is worthy of being one of the two major empires on the mainland, and its overall strength is far greater than that of a small country like the Lampari Kingdom.
Of course, it is impossible for the Governor of the Southwest Province, Duke Mogudu, to surrender his identity and personally greet a group of businessmen from the Lampari Kingdom outside the Governor's Palace, and even among this group of people, the only people who were finally summoned by the Duke of Mogudu were Xu Yi, President Cruise, and the new Earl Andy Cole, the head of the Commerce Department of the Lampari Kingdom, who was sent as the official representative of the Lampari Kingdom.
However, because this cooperation between the two sides not only represents the official cooperation between the Lampari Kingdom and the Candela Empire, but also includes the formal cooperation between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and Prince Frank, the Duke of Mogudu has to be quite polite, and personally set up a banquet in the Governor's Palace, and invited Xu Yi and the three of them.
The banquet was skipped, and after the luncheon, the three of them had a brief conversation with the Duke of Mogudu.
In this conversation, the Duke of Mogudu made his attitude clear.
On behalf of the Kandela Empire and the officials of the Southwest Province, he welcomed the various chambers of commerce in the Kingdom of Lampari to come to the Southwest Province to invest and build factories, and said that the Governor's Office of the Southwest Province would give support in all aspects to ensure that the investment of the chambers of commerce in the Kingdom of Lampari was carried out smoothly.
Of course, there is also a premise for this.
That is, it is no problem for the chambers of commerce of the Lampari Kingdom to invest and build factories in the southwestern province, but they must strictly abide by the laws of the Candela Empire.
To put it more bluntly, it is to pay taxes honestly and not to evade taxes.
President Cruise naturally has no doubt about this, and on behalf of the chambers of commerce of the Lampari Kingdom, he said that he would strictly abide by it, and said that he would contribute his own strength to the construction and development of the southwest province......
In general, the atmosphere of this conversation was relatively relaxed and pleasant, because before this, in fact, the officials of the Candela Empire and the Lampari Kingdom had already held several consultations and reached a cooperation agreement.
This time, the chambers of commerce of the Lampari Kingdom came only to conduct a more specific investigation.
The only exception is Xu Yi and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce he represents. (To be continued......)
