Volume 2 Chapter 59 - Transport problem (1/2)

The one sitting in the first carriage was chairman Rank’s assistant Leif, he had seen Xu Yi several times at the Business Union conferences. Seeing him suddenly appear, he quickly stopped the horse carriages.

“Chairman Xu, how do you have time to take a stroll in the city today?” Leif was around forty years old and was a bit chubby. He looked a bit like the Falcao Chamber of Commerce’s chairman Morgan when he smiled, but he seemed a bit more friendly compared to chairman Morgan.

“No, I was just discussing some things with the Lord City Lord and just came out.” Xu Yi casually replied before looking at the horse carriages and saying, “It seems like your harvest this time isn’t bad, did you sell all those Magic Fans?”

Leif said with a smile, “It’s all thanks to chairman Xu’s suggestions that we’ve sold all the Magic Fans in our warehouse. I won’t hide it from you, the demand for Magic Fans in the other places in the kingdom is still very high.”

Xu Yi gave a slight nod, thinking that this was an obvious matter.

When the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had just been established last year and the Magic Fan was released, the people in Banta City and the surrounding cities all went into an uproar. It was enough to prove that the novel magic machines on the Sines Continent could affect people.

There was no reason why the other people of the Lampuri Kingdom didn’t need the same things as the people of Banta City and the surrounding cities.

But Leif was right, the Sarank Chamber of Commerce selling the Magic Fans under their names in the other parts of the kingdom had come from a suggestion from Xu Yi.

At the Business Union conference last time, Xu Yi had proved a point to the other companies. It was that the magic machine technology of the other companies was just too far lacking when it compared to the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, so it was almost impossible for them to steal business from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.

So Xu Yi had mentioned that because the Frestech Chamber of Commerce didn’t have mature channels, the other companies could use their channels to sell their Magic Fans to other parts of the kingdom, so they wouldn’t need to worry about their sales.

Although the other companies didn’t give a clear stance on Xu Yi’s proposal, Xu Yi learned afterwards that many companies had indeed done this. Based on the news that they brought back, the results were quite good.

After the other companies saw the large demand for Magic Fans in the other parts of the kingdom, even the ones that had thoughts of giving up on the magic machine market began producing Magic Fans again.

There were even two companies that bought another two sets of production lines from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce. They brought them to two cities far away from Banta City to create a new Magic Fan factory and it’s said that their sales were quite good.

Thinking of this, Xu Yi asked Leif, “Since the sales are quite good, are you prepared to suggest to chairman Rank to keep investing and sell produce even more Magic Fans?”

Leif looked around before moving in front of Xu Yi and saying in a low voice, “Chairman Xu, is your Frestech Chamber of Commerce really not planning to sell your Frestech Brand Magic Fans in other places this year?”

“Of course.” Xu Yi gave a certain nod, “Didn’t I show my attitude last time at the Business Union conference? The Frestech Chamber of Commerce doesn’t have the strength to sell our products in every part of the kingdom. So at least for this year, our Frestech Brand Magic Fans will only be sold in Banta City and the surrounding three cities. Of course, starting next year, we will be trying to open up new business channels because all the people in Banta City have already bought our products, so the market is saturated.”

Leif looked at Xu Yi for a while and seeing his serious expression, he gave a slight nod, “Alright, I understand. Chairman Xu, I think our Sarank Chamber of Commerce still has a chance to cooperate with your Frestech Chamber of Commerce.”

Seeing that Leif was prepared to leave, Xu Yi quickly stopped him and asked, “Let me ask you something else, what’s the furthest place you’ve gone this time?”

Leif looked at Xu Yi in surprise, “It isn’t that far, the furthest was just Safran City.”

“Safran City?” Xu Yi thought about it, “That place is only four hundred kilometers away from Banta City.”

“Four hundred kilometers is already very far.” Leif emotionally shook his head, “Because we’re afraid of damaging our cargo, we spent an entire week on this journey. If it wasn’t for the fact that the Magic Fans sold fast, it would be impossible for us to be back today.”

Xu Yi looked over the horse carriages and he saw that the iron sheet around the wheel was already worn out. It could be seen that they had a hard journey.

Seeing Xu Yi look over their carriage, Leif suddenly said with emotion, “Chairman Xu, when your Frestech Chamber of Commerce was building that road to the Falling Rain Valley, I thought that you must have gone crazy and had too much money. But after this trip, I’ve found that what you said before, called…..called…...What was it again?”

“You have to build roads to become rich.” Xu Yi said.
