Volume 4 Chapter 63 - Cantona facing a difficult choice (1/2)

The season was about to enter spring.

At this time in the past, Cantona was the most busy, but it was also his most happy time.

Because the Cantona Chamber of Commerce had ten farming magic machines. So when the spring harvest came, there were many people in Banta City and the surrounding cities who invited the Cantona Chamber of Commerce to help with their harvest.

Although it was very busy, not only did this work earn quite a bit of money, it also accumulated quite a bit of fame from the Cantona Chamber of Commerce. So although the Cantona Chamber of Commerce was no longer a small company with a few agricultural magic machines, Cantona still put importance in this work.

However, Cantona was actually worried this year.

It was for nothing else, it was because the City Lord Manor sent out a new rule.

The City Lord Manor requested that for the spring harvest to progress smoothly, the agricultural magic machines assigned by the City Lord Manor had to be used in Banta City.

As for the brand, of course it was the Hayada Chamber of Commerce’s brand picked out by the department.

Everyone knew why the City Lord Manor made this rule, but Cantona had no choice.

The other companies could choose to leave after not being able to continue in Banta City, but for the farming business that the Cantona Chamber of Commerce was in, they were based on the land in Banta City and couldn’t avoid the land controlled by Banta City.

Cantona had already considered leaving Banta City, but the Cantona Chamber of Commerce couldn’t just leave the Lampuri Kingdom. To open a business in the other cities, with the current situation, it was better to wait for some time.

Because the magic machine industry management department was spreading their rules over the kingdom. They claimed that to guarantee standards for growing, they had to use the brand chosen by the department.

Being forced like this, the Cantona Chamber of Commerce purchased ten sets of farming magic machines and had spent close to ten thousand gold coins.

Cantona thought that this would let them continue in their business, but when the Cantona Chamber of Commerce was about to start their harvest in Mexilan Village, there were various problems that appeared in these magic machines. It caused them to spend more than three days and they still hadn’t finished the one hundred mu of land in Mexilan Village.

It had to be known that in the previous years, as long as the Cantona Chamber of Commerce went in full force, they would be able to finish the land in Mexilan Village in just a single morning.

Hearing a sharp screech from the Hayada Brand farming magic machine not far away before stopping, no longer letting out the glow of a Magic Array, Cantona deeply knit his brows.

In the three days of using the Hayada magic machines, there were thirteen of the twenty that had shown problems and six of them had serious problems, so they couldn’t be used at all.

The most exaggerated thing was that key parts of two of them had been broken!

This problem was simply unbelievable. It had to be known that this bearing connected every part of the small Magic Harvester. It should have been made with the best materials, but this Hayada Brand magic machine had actually been broken after just being used for two days, it could be seen how bad the quality was.

“Chairman, there’s no way of doing this.” One of the Cantona Chamber of Commerce workers threw away the Hayada Brand small Magic Harvester in his hand and complained, “If it keeps breaking, we can’t work at all.”

“Yes, chairman, the one in my hand doesn’t seem like it can hold on much longer.” A worker who was not far away also revealed a bitter smile, “Listen, what sound is that? I think that soon……”

Before he could finish, the small Magic Harvester he was holding let out a strange white light before that light disappeared. The sound stopped and it became still.

Everyone looked at each other. That worker gave a sigh and spread his hands. He came in front of Cantona and shook his head, “Chairman, I can’t do this anymore. What damn Hayada Brand Magic Harvester, it’s just a pile of junk.”

“Right, if it doesn’t go bad, its efficiency can’t even compare to the Frestech Brand. Not to mention that we’ve had the Frestech Brand ones for three years now and not a single one has broken down. At most there were only a few small problems.”

“Right, the Frestech Brand Magic Harvesters were easy to use, how could it break down so fast like these damn Hayada Brand ones. Chairman, let’s just take out the Frestech Brand ones, otherwise we can’t do this at all.”

“Right, right, chairman, let’s take out the Frestech Brand ones. Why do we have to use this pile of junk instead of those?”

“The chairman is worried about the new rules…..”

“What damn rules, we’ll use it ourselves, what does the City Lord Manor care about.”

“That is hard to say……”

……

Cantona knit his brows and looked at the entrance to Mexilan Village, seeing someone quickly riding a bicycle over.

That person came over to the farmland and Cantona’s group came over to them.

“Hey, Macaro, why are you only back now? Didn’t I tell you to take the public transportation so you could come back quicker? Why are you riding a bicycle?” Cantona anxiously asked.

Macaro put down the bicycle and spread his hands with a bitter smile, “The public transport fees were raised, so I felt that it wasn’t worth it. Then again, this place isn’t that far from the city, so I just rode my bicycle over.”

“It increased again?” The people were stunned, “Didn’t it just increase last month? It increased again? How much did it increase by this time?”

“Thirty silver coins a trip……” Macaro said with a sigh, “A round trip is sixty silver coins, so do you think it’s a waste or not?”

“Damn! It just increased to twenty silver coins and now it suddenly increased to thirty silver coins? Isn’t this crazy? With how expensive it is, who would ride it!”
