Chapter 5: Breaking out of the box
After being broken by Xu Yi, Kawacs stayed for a while, and then said with an embarrassed face: "President Xu, we are not ...... No, we're just ...... It's just that I finally had this opportunity, so I want to take advantage of it...... It's not that we don't want to supply you new flying business parts, really! You believe me, we will definitely use the best for the last batch ......of parts!
Xu Yi raised his hand and interrupted him again.
"Well, needless to say, I see what you mean. Xu Yi smiled slightly, and did not show any anger as Kavacs feared. "I don't blame you, but Kawacs, you sue me, is that what you mean, or is that what Ferriman meant?"
"It's ......," the embarrassed look on Kovac's face intensified, but he replied honestly, "That's what I meant." Freeman disagrees completely. β
Xu Yi nodded.
Freeman is an honest man, and he has always had an attitude of knowing Xu Yi, of course, he would not give up the idea of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce because there were orders from other places.
However, it is precisely because of this that Covacs, a "shrewd person", is more likely to grasp the control of the United Chamber of Commerce of Ireland, but it is Feliman, the president, who has less power to speak in the Chamber of Commerce than Covacs, and the United Chamber of Commerce of Ireland finally made this decision.
Xu Yi pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I understand the choice you made, and I support this choice. Because from my point of view, of course, I hope that the magic industry can spread throughout the Lampari Kingdom, and even the entire Sainz continent. The more chambers of commerce like you can get out of Bunta City. The more it helps me achieve what I want to achieve. β
Kawacs nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, President Xu, I also have this idea." Your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has even developed to other countries, although our Irish United Chamber of Commerce can't compare with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but we also have this ambition, right?"
"Well, that's a good idea. Xu Yi nodded in approval, and then changed the conversation. "But Kavacs, I must remind you of one thing, if it is from the perspective of the long-term development of your Chamber of Commerce, you are in a hurry to get rid of our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce now. It's not a wise choice. β
A hint of disapproval crossed Kavacs' face. Immediately, he smiled again: "President Xu, you have misunderstood. How could we possibly want to get rid of your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce? There is absolutely no such thing! It's just that this is a good opportunity, and the production capacity of our Chamber of Commerce can't keep up for the time being, so let's stop the supply to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for the time being. Later, we will be able to keep up. Ease up. I'm sure I'm still most looking forward to continuing to work with your new flying chamber of commerce. β
Xu Yi smiled. Noncommittal.
"Well, now that you've decided, I don't have a problem with that. You have completed this batch of orders. I will find other chambers of commerce in the city to solve the problem of parts production. By the way, you just said that you have two things to discuss with me, so this is the first one, and what is the other thing?"
"What's the second thing...... Kawacs rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "President Xu, what do you say...... Can the parts and components produced by our Chamber of Commerce in the future continue to be produced according to the standards set by your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?"
"Oh?" Xu Yi glanced at him in surprise: "Why do you have this idea?"
"Because I went to many chambers of commerce that produce magic machinery in other cities a year ago, I found that many of the magic machines produced by the chamber of commerce are not actually according to the popular standards in our Bangta City, but they sell very well. If we want to process parts for them, if they are still according to the standards of Bangta City, it will be a little unmatched. So I thought...... For orders from other chambers of commerce, there is no need to continue to implement the standards of our Bunta City, right?"
Kavacs looked at Xu Yi expectantly.
Although theoretically speaking, the current popular standard in Bangta City is only a mention of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, which is considered a mandatory rule in the Bangta City Magic Machinery Business Association, but in fact, there is no too strict enforcement standard, so even if the United Chamber of Commerce of Ireland does not comply with this regulation, it is actually nothing.
However, out of fear of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, Kavacs still felt that Xu Yi's consent should be obtained.
Xu Yi looked at Kauvats, with a smile on his face: "When you went to those chambers of commerce to inspect, did you really think that the magic machinery they produced was very good?"
"Of course, it's not as good as the magic machine of the new flying brand. Kavacs immediately replied categorically. "But I don't think it's much worse than the magic machines produced by other chambers of commerce in Bunta City, and they still sell very well locally. β
Xu Yi smiled, waved his hand and said, "Okay, since you have already made a decision, then I don't have any opinion." This standard is not currently enforced, and if your United Irish Chamber of Commerce decides that it is okay not to follow this standard, it is not impossible. β
Kawacs looked at the expression on Xu Yi's face and asked cautiously, "President Xu, aren't you really angry?"
Xu Yi was immediately happy: "Why should I be angry? This is your own decision of the United Chamber of Commerce of Ireland, as a colleague, I can only propose proposals for you at most, and I can't really do anything to you." Of course, as a colleague, I have to give you a piece of advice. β
"Speak. β
"The production of any commodity, especially industrial goods, requires a uniform standard. Standards bring more than just limitations, but more advantages. You may not understand it now, but I'm sure it won't be long before you do. Xu Yizheng said.
There was still some disapproval in Kavacs's expression, but Xu Yi didn't bother to explain more to him.
As he said, this is a resolution of the United Chamber of Ireland, and he has no way of disposing of them, at least for the time being.
Although there are many ways to make the United Chamber of Commerce of Ireland suffer with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and Xu Yi's current position in Bangta City, Xu is not willing to do so.
Let them suffer their own losses, and then experience the benefits brought by the standards, which is far better than Xu Yi's current forced prevention of them.
And, to put it cruelly, even if the United Chamber of Ireland suffers as a result. That can also be regarded as an example of the bloody forest presented to other chambers of commerce.
The New Flying Chamber of Commerce can support a United Irish Chamber of Commerce, and of course has the ability to support more United Irish Chambers.
The only thing that makes Xu Yi feel sorry is only the honest man Feliman.
Seeing Kavacs turn around and leave with relaxed steps, Xu Yi shook his head with a smile and turned to meet the group of people who had been waiting for him for a long time.
Most of the things that the representatives of the presidents of these chambers of commerce discussed with Xu Yi were about the supply of magic machine tools for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
Because the magic industry in Bonta City is developing well, most of the chambers of commerce that have devoted themselves to this industry in the previous two years have made a lot of money, and this year, Her Royal Highness Queen Sevini has made it clear that she supports the commercial development of Bonta City, especially the development of the magic industry, and these chambers of commerce naturally want to further expand the scale of production.
And this year, Bangta City has seen an influx of more immigrants. It can relieve some of the manpower pressure. It's a very good opportunity to scale up production.
Therefore, the representatives of the presidents of these chambers of commerce found Xu Yi in order to put forward more orders for magic machine tools to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and prepare for the expansion of production scale.
Xu Yi just chatted casually with this group of people, and preliminarily determined the orders for more than 100 magic lathes, magic forging machines, magic stamping machines and other magic machine tools.
There are even several chambers of commerce that directly request orders for a whole production line to Xinfei merchants.
Compared to the scale of their production before. This is a huge step.
Xu Yi naturally agreed to it all. The results ended up being roughly calculated. Just after talking for a while, Xu Yi actually received orders for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce with a total amount of more than 500,000 gold coins.
This order can also be regarded as the first business of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the new year, and it can be regarded as a good start.
Wait for everyone to leave. President Cruise leaned over and sighed.
"President Xu, I envy you very much many times. Just sit here, and business will come to your door automatically. If our Chamber of Commerce can have such a hot scene when it happens, then I will be happy even if I die tomorrow. β
Xu Yi glanced at him: "It seems that your Amrley Chamber of Commerce will not be able to open the pot." You can pretend in front of others, but what do you pretend to me? I know that just a few years ago, the Kingdom of Ruerson signed an agreement with your Amritri Chamber of Commerce on the construction of a total of 1,000 kilometers of roads. The total amount involved in this agreement is more than four million gold coins. β
"Hey, President Xu, the total amount and the profit are two different things, don't tell me you don't know. President Cruise had a look of wronged expression. "Your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce sells 500,000 gold coins, maybe you can transfer 400,000 gold coins from it. We, the Amritri Chamber of Commerce, built a road with four million gold coins, and I am afraid that we can earn less than 400,000 gold coins from it!"
"And what about the development of high-end residential villa communities in cities connected by highways? Xu Yi said with a smile.
"Haha...... What's this...... Haha......" President Cruise looked up and smiled, but he didn't answer Xu Yi's question directly at all.
Xu Yi shook his head, thinking that real estate is a profiteering industry on the earth, but he didn't expect that it would be the same violence on the Sainz continent.
The Amrley Chamber of Commerce has developed a high-end villa residential complex on the banks of the Sandy River in the new town of Bang Ta City, with an average price of 9,000 gold coins per villa.
According to various materials, Xu also estimated that the cost price of a villa is about 4,000 gold coins.
Even if you take into account the labor and the cost of the Amrley Chamber of Commerce to purchase land from the City Lord's Mansion, the average cost of a villa will not exceed six thousand gold coins.
In the end, just one villa Amrley Chamber of Commerce can make a profit of more than 3,000 gold coins.
And there are a total of 188 villas in that community, and if you calculate it, this community alone has earned more than 600,000 gold coins.
This is just a small area, if you count the two residential complexes built by the Amritri Chamber of Commerce in Saltan City and Kalmar City at the same time, if all of them are sold, it will bring the Amrley Chamber of Commerce a net profit of nearly two million gold coins.
Counting the AmritΓ© Chamber of Commerce's revenue from road construction last year, the AmritΓ© Chamber of Commerce's total profit for the year is enough to surpass any other chamber of commerce in Bunta City, excluding the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
"Ahem...... President Xu, you don't know that although we make a lot of money, we also spend a lot. And not every place makes money, but there are still places that are losing money. For example...... The investment in that place in the Black Rice Wasteland is currently losing a lot of money. β
Hearing that President Cruise had finally mentioned the Black Rice Wasteland, Xu Yi's brows furrowed slightly.
This place of the orc race is really uncomfortable. (To be continued......)
