Volume 3 Chapter 95 - Most important source of wealth (1/2)
“Chairman, why didn’t you agree to that contract?” Kennard watched as Hank Wilson’s horse carriage disappeared along the road before turning to ask Xu Yi.
Xu Yi asked back with a smile, “This question, are you asking from the position of the Emma Family’s successor or as our Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s CEO?”
Kennard was surprised. After being silent for a bit, he answered with a serious look, “Whichever position it’s from, I feel that this is a contract worth signing. If it is from the Emma Family’s position, cooperating with the Frestech Chamber of Commerce can earn a large amount of benefits for the Walmart Chamber of Commerce, but it can also open the magic machine market in other countries, so it is very beneficial.”
“Then what about from the position of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s CEO?” Xu Yi asked.
“From the position of our Frestech Chamber of Commerce, this contract is very beneficial to us. Our company’s goal is to eventually enter other countries, instead of attempting it by ourselves in the future, it is better to cooperate with the Walmart Chamber of Commerce. It would save us plenty of trouble and would be very helpful to our company.” Kennard replies.
“I have to say that your ideas are very correct, but…..I don’t want our company’s development to be controlled by others, do you understand?” Xu Yi said.
Kennard looked at Xu Yi in surprise. He was surprised by his answer and he was more surprised that his answer was so blunt.
In the end, he was someone from the Emma Family. Him giving this reason, was it for him to understand? Or was it for the Emma Family to understand?
But seeing the calm smile on Xu Yi’s face, he couldn’t understand what he was thinking at all.
Kennard couldn’t help giving a secret sigh in his heart.
The longer he worked at the Frestech Chamber of Commerce and the more he was in contact with Xu Yi, the more he felt he couldn’t see through him.
“But you don’t need to worry. Although I didn’t sign this contract, it doesn’t mean I’m against it, right?” Seeing the expression Kennard had, Xu Yi said with a faint smile, “At least I still hope that we can continue developing our cooperation with the Walmart Chamber of Commerce. For example, regarding the Walmart Chamber of Commerce’s proposition of selling our Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s magic machines in different countries, I support it very much.”
Kennard thought for a bit before giving up on asking Xu Yi his real intentions. He said in a thoughtful voice, “But chairman, you agreeing to sell the Walmart Chamber of Commerce five hundred Magic Cars, I’m afraid it’ll be a bit difficult. Currently we still haven’t finished the Fersen Carriage Company’s order and you agreed to take the orders of the other companies after the Fersen Carriage Company, how will you produce all those units?”
“Relax, Camby and the others have developed the automatic production magic machines further. You’ll find that it’ll greatly increase our production efficiency, so there’s no problem squeezing out five hundred Magic Cars for the Walmart Chamber of Commerce.”
“Even if there are the automatic production magic machines, I still feel that it will be very hard.” Kennard said with a frown.
Xu Yi laughed, “This trouble is a headache for you as the CEO, this is your responsibility.”
Kennard said with a bitter smile, “Sir chairman, you really know how to give me trouble.”
Xu Yi gave a cold snort, “Don’t you forget, I still need to take care of a bigger problem and this problem has a deep relationship with you.”
Kennard could only give a bitter laugh, “Sir chairman, I hope that you can look after Sophia while she’s here.”
Xu Yi gave a helpless sigh, thinking why must he be a nanny?

The leaves in Banta City fell once again and late autumn came.
It was different from the bleakness of last year. Because Seveni took over as the City Lord this year, Banta City’s commerce had greatly improved and it was like the city was filled with life.
Although there was a slight chill that came with the autumn wind, there were crowds all over the streets that served to make the city very lively.
Seveni looked at the prosperous market filled with people that was in the distance from the City Lord Manor and she couldn’t help revealing a heartfelt satisfied smile. She said with a soft sigh, “If our entire Lampuri Kingdom can be as prosperous as this, it would be good.”
“Be assured, your highness, I believe that your expectation will become a reality.” There was a middle aged man standing respectfully behind Seveni who said this with a faint smile.
