Difference in quality

“I’ve already investigated this. In the Magic Fan factory of the Leo Chamber of Commerce, they also have five similar magic machines……” Seeing Xu Yi being lost in thought, chairman Farsak added these words that had implied meaning.

Xu Yi looked at him and calmly said, “Chairman Farsak, please speak if you have something to say.”

Chairman Farsak’s round face didn’t have the same incomparably kind smile from before. His little eyes stared right at Xu Yi and shot out two beams.

“Chairman Xu, although it wasn’t stated clearly in the contract you signed with my company, if your company does sell magic machines to other companies in Saltan City, shouldn’t you have informed me first?”

Xu Yi slightly knit his brows. Our Frestech Chamber of Commerce sells magic machines to begin with, do I need your permission to sell them?

Of course, Xu Yi was very clear on the fact that while this was a very common business practice on earth, it was not the same on the Sines Continent.

After thinking for a bit, Xu Yi pushed down on chairman Farsak’s hand, signaling him to be patient. Then he reached out and rubbed the foundation of the Magic Fan.

After a while, Xu Yi revealed an understanding smile that was already expected.

“Chairman Farsak, first I need to strictly remind you, the magic machines are magic machines that our Frestech Chamber of Commerce has independently studied. As long as others give us a price, we have the right to sell to anyone……” Seeing that chairman Farsak’s face sunk, Xu Yi continued with a smile, “Of course, since we are in a cooperation, then as a partner, I naturally have to consider the benefits of your Farsak Chamber of Commerce. So, in a normal situation, we would not sell the magic machines needed to produce the Magic Fan to any other companies in Saltan City.”

“Then what is the deal with this Magic Fan?” Chairman Farsak pointed at the Magic Fan in Xu Yi’s hand with a frown, “If it was made purely from manual labour, each Magic Fan would take a very long time to make and have a very high cost. But the price of the Leo Chamber of Commerce’s Magic Fan is actually ten silver coins lower than the ones from our Farsak Chamber of Commerce. If they didn’t make them with the magic machines, I can guarantee that the Leo Chamber of Commerce will bleed themselves to death. Of course, I don’t believe those fellows at the Leo Chamber of Commerce would be so foolish.”

“Chairman Farsak, I think you have neglected something.” Xu Yi said with a smile, “Since the Magic Fans can be imitated, then the magic machines can also be imitated.”

“Imitations of the magic machines?” Chairman Farsak’s small eyes suddenly popped out, “That is impossible! Those five magic machines are very complicated, how could it be possible they were copied?”

Xu Yi gave a shrug, “Although I don’t want to admit it, this is the truth if my guesses aren’t wrong. The five magic machines the Leo Chamber of Commerce you mentioned had, it should be imitations made by them.”

“But…...But are the magic machines that easy to imitate?” Chairman Farsak looked at Xu Yi, as if he didn’t believe him.

“Of course it’s not easy, but that doesn’t mean that it is impossible.”

Xu Yi casually picked up a tool and very easily dismantled the Magic Fan in his hands into components.

It was like he had expected, this Magic Fan not only had the same outer shell as the Frestech Brand Magic Fan, but even the inner components were basically the same.

In other words, this Magic Fan was a complete knockoff of the Frestech Brand Magic Fan.

“Can you see any problems?” Seeing Xu Yi’s actions, chairman Farsak couldn’t help asking.

Xu Yi picked up an axle that supported the fan blades to look over before laughing, “I can see many problems. Chairman Farsak, this Leo Chamber of Commerce shouldn’t have sold this Magic Fan for more than half a month, right?”

Chairman Farsak was stunned. After thinking about it, he said with a nod, “That’s right, it hasn’t passed half a month yet. How did you know?”

Xu Yi pointed at the components on the ground, “They told me.”

“They?” Chairman Farsak looked at the components scattered on the ground and didn’t understand.

Xu Yi looked over at chairman Farsak, “You should have brought the Magic Fan your company produced on your trip this time, right?”
