Volume 4 Chapter 14 - The destroyed Magic Sedan (1/2)

There was a brand new white Magic Sedan from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce that slowly drove to the Falling Star Manor.

The Magic Sedan stopped at the parking lot behind the entrance and Xu Yi came out. He couldn’t help looking at another pure black Magic Sedan that had all different kinds of dents in it. He couldn’t help laughing as he shook his head.

This Magic Sedan was the exclusive one to Great Magician Camilla and to this day, he had had it for a month.

In just a single month, this Magic Sedan with a high price of nine thousand nine hundred and ninety gold coins was battered like this. Now only was it covered in scratches, there were many dents all over the body. It could be seen how it had been “mistreated” in the past month.

A month ago, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce unveiled the new Magic Sedan at their product release. Because of its comfort and quick speed, not only was it welcomed by the nobles and merchants of Banta City, it was also welcomed by the nobles and merchants of other cities.

In just a single month, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had received three thousand orders for this Magic Sedan.

With the price of nine thousand nine hundred and ninety nine gold coins, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had earned thirty million gold coins from this Magic Sedan alone.

Moreover, when this Magic Sedan was developed, it was aimed at the high end market, so it had a higher price.

The cost of a single Magic Sedan was less than four thousand gold coins.

Which means that from a single Magic Sedan, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce earned a profit of over six thousand gold coins.

For three thousand of them, that was close to eighteen million gold coins!

When Sebas brought out these stats, other than Xu Yi who was already prepared, the other high level members of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce were all stunned.

Even Kennard who was from the Emma Family and had more experience than others was stunned by this figure.

It had to be known, even for the Walmart Chamber of Commerce, their yearly net profits were less than thirty million gold coins. The Frestech Chamber of Commerce had earned eighteen million gold coins from the orders of a single month.

Comparing this, no one could match the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s speed in generating profits.

Of course, the orders in a single month didn’t mean the Frestech Chamber of Commerce earned this much in a month.

With the poor production rate of less than one hundred Magic Sedans a month, it would take at least two years to get this large profit of eighteen million gold coins.

Production capacity was what Xu Yi worried about the most.

The Frestech Chamber of Commerce didn’t need to worry about orders when they didn’t release things, but there were too many orders once they released things and their production couldn’t keep up, so there were many orders they couldn’t fulfill right away.

Although because of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s lead that almost gave them a monopoly, even if they couldn’t complete the orders in time, the other side had no other way. They could only patiently wait, but this wasn’t a good thing.

Even if Xu Yi wasn’t willing, from Kennard to the ordinary workers, they all voluntarily took overtime shifts. There were almost no holidays for the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s factories and their working hours were normally very long.

Although this meant that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s business was good and Xu Yi as the chairman should be happy to see this, he didn’t want to see this from his personal perspective.

He hoped that the workers could have normal relaxation time and wouldn’t be working all day, which would hurt their bodies eventually.

In the environment of the Sines Continent, it was impossible for him to ask the workers not to work overtime, so he could only find another way of solving this problem.

While considering this, Xu Yi headed towards the manor.

“Hey, you’re back.”

Still’s voice pulled Xu Yi out of his thoughts.

Looking up, he saw Still sitting on a balcony outside the room. She was leaning in a deck chair and was enjoying the warm, but not burning sunlight of the spring.

“You’re not afraid of being tanned like this?” Xu Yi teased her with a smile. He walked over and gave her a kiss on the cheek before picking up his daughter who had been sleeping in the baby carriage on the side.

The baby who was a month old grew very fast. After not seeing her for a day, Xu Yi felt that she was much more grown up compared to yesterday. Her features were more developed and her face was rounder, making her look much more proper.

“Still, who do you think she looks like?” Xu Yi casually asked.

Still looked at her daughter in Xu Yi’s arms and after thinking about it, she said, “Other people say that the daughter looks like the father and I think it’s the same. Look, her features seem like yours. Look at this nose, it’s simply the same as yours.”

“Is it?” Xu Yi shook his head, “It’s bad if it’s like mine. She is a girl, she should be like you, the mother and become a beauty like you after she grows up. Don’t you think so, darling?”

Although she was used to being praised for her appearance, Still still gave a happy smile. After poking her daughter’s cheek, she said with a faint smile, “If she really becomes beautiful when she grows up, she will move the hearts of many boys. When that time comes, I wonder if any boy will take advantage of her?”
