Volume 1 Chapter 40 (1/2)

Strange chairman Xu Yi

A horse carriage quickly moved across the road to the north of Banta City, very quickly approaching Banta City.

The window of the horse carriage suddenly opened and a round young girl’s face was stuck out of the horse carriage. She saw the city wall of Banta City wasn’t considered tall and loudly shouted, “Look, that is Banta City! We’re almost there!”

Another girl’s face appeared behind the glass and looked at the distant Banta City, but her eyes fell somewhere else.

“Yi? What is that?” A delicate looking girl pointed at a high building outside Banta City and asked this question.

The round faced girl pointed in a direction and found that not far outside Banta City, there was a thick pole sticking out of the ground. It was supporting a strange giant rectangular thing high up above the city walls.

The side of the sign facing the road seemed to have something drawn on it. They couldn’t see it clearly at first, but when the horse carriage approached it, the two girls found that there was an iron foundation that was turning left and right.

The center part of this drawing was being turned at high speed by this strange machine, so they could only see a blurry image. They couldn’t see what was inside it at all.

“Is this that Magic Fan thing?” The round faced girl’s large eyes looked at this strange looking machine as she spoke.

“It should be. Look, it’s clearly blowing out wind.” The delicate looking girl replied before she looked to the right of the image. She called out in a surprised voice, “Ya, isn’t that Still?”

“Still? Where?” The round face girl looked over and found that there was a beautiful golden haired girl on the right side of the image.

Although it was only from the side, the golden hair girl’s fine features, incomparably smooth skin, as well as the slightly floating white dress, it made people unwilling to look away.

“It really is Still!” The round face girl quickly recognized her, “Her image is actually on this? Isn’t this too conspicuous?”

“It should be related to the Magic Fan.” The delicate girl said in a thoughtful voice, “Look, there is a name on this sign. It seems say……”

“Frestech Brand Magic Fan, bringing a bit of cold to you in the summer heat. What does that mean?” The round face girl rushed to read it first, but she didn’t understand it.

“I don’t know. But last time Still said that she became the Frestech Chamber of Commerce's spokesperson, could it be that this is a representation of her?” The delicate girl said.

The round face girl tilted her head to think for a bit before shaking her head, “I don’t get it. Forget it, we’ll see her in a bit, we can just ask her then.”

“Un, it seems like we can only do this.” The delicate girl nodded. She said to the horse carriage driver, “Uncle, can you take us to the Frestech Chamber of Commerce?”

The horse carriage driver was a middle aged man of around forty. When he heard this, he asked back, “Frestech Chamber of Commerce? There are two places. One is the exclusive store they’ve opened and the other is the factory outside the city, which one do you want to go to?”

“There is a difference?” The two girls looked at each other in a daze. The delicate looking girl thought about it before asking, “Do you know where their chairman normally is?”

“I don’t know that. But I’ve heard that their exclusive store only has a fellow inside selling things, normally there isn’t anyone else. I think the chairman should normally be in the factory.” The driver guessed.

“That’s good, can you send us directly to the factory?” The delicate looking girl said.

“I can, but they are building roads near the factory during this time, so I can only send you near there. You’ll have to walk the rest of the way yourself.”

“Alright, we’ll do that.”

The delicate looking girl said this and the driver flicked the whip in his hand, making the horse carriage turn right. It directly headed out Banta City in a westward direction.

The small road outside the city was not flat, so the horse carriage kept shaking. The two girls inside the carriage couldn’t help feeling dizzy.

But this kind of situation didn’t last long. After a while, the horse carriage only shook slightly before it became very stable, as if there wasn’t the slightest bit of trembling at all.

The round face girl couldn’t suppress her curiosity and poked her head out the carriage’s window. She found that the path the horse carriage was currently on was very smooth, there wasn’t a single hole to be seen. This road was much better compared to the one from before.

The round face girl’s heart was filled with curiosity and she couldn’t help asking the driver, “Uncle, why is this road so smooth? It would be great if the road we traveled on before was as smooth as this.”

The driver laughed, “This road has been specially paved by the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, it wasn’t easy to travel at all before. I’ve heard that in order to pave this road, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce has spent quite a bit of money.”

“Oh? Their company is even responsible for paving the road? Isn’t this supposed to be managed by the City Lord?”

“Properly speaking, it should be the City Lord who is responsible for this, but the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s what…...That’s right, the chairman named Xu Yi wasn’t satisfied, so he was happy to take out his own money to fix the road. The Lord City Lord couldn't stop him from doing that, right? So the current road you see now is the newly fixed road.”

“Why was chairman Xu Yi not satisfied? Could it be that people couldn’t walk on it?” The round face girl asked in a curious voice.
