Volume 5 Chapter 47 - Increasing budget (1/2)
“In the next year, our main project other than the Magic Boat will be the Magic Airship.”
When Xu Yi’s voice fell, everyone’s eyes had gathered in Evita.
Everyone knew that Evita was responsible for developing the Magic Airship.
Evita nodded, “Sir chairman, I will do my best.”
“Not just do your best, I want to put in a specific request.” Xu Yi said with a serious look, “Evita, tell me, how has the development of the Magic Airship been going?”
Evita was silent for a bit before replying, “According to the data, the maximum carrying weight of the Magic Airship is currently seventeen tons and the largest carrying capacity is thirty six cubic meters. The highest speed it can reach is seventy kilometers per hour and the longest continuous journey is over nine hundred and thirty kilometers.”
Hearing Evita’s report, the others all let out sighs of praise.
Even if they didn’t know much about the Magic Airship, based on the data that Evita reported, the Magic Airship was already in a very good place.
The most important thing was that the Magic Airship flew through the sky. Just based on this, it was much better than the Magic Cars and the Magic Boats.
Sir chairman placing importance on the Magic Airship was clearly because of this.
“Un, that is still considered good.” Xu Yi nodded, but he didn’t look that satisfied, “But it still doesn’t meet my requirements. Evita, I require it to fly over one thousand and five hundred kilometers continuously and it needs to reach a hundred kilometers an hour, can you do this?”
“A hundred kilometers per hour?” Everyone was stunned.
Even the Magic Sedan with the newly developed Fire Magic Engine, the highest speed that it could reach was only eighty kilometers an hour.
Sir chairman wanted the Magic Airship to reach over a hundred kilometers an hour, wasn’t this requirement too high?
Evita thought about it before a bit before giving a determined nod.
“No problem.”
“Good.” Xu Yi was satisfied with this. He smiled as he had Evita sit down before turning to Camby, “Evita is confident, what about you, Camby?”
Camby gave a grin, “As long as the magic research facility can create the blueprint, our magic machine development center doesn’t have any problems.”
Xu Yi smiled before having Kennard continue.
Although everyone here was Frestech Chamber of Commerce upper management, they didn’t know everything about the company. Hearing Kennard’s report now, they had an approximate understanding of the company.
They didn’t know before, but once they did, everyone was surprised to find that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had become such a giant company without them noticing. Not only did they control the Stantine Duchy, they could greatly affect countries like the Lampuri Kingdom and the Rudson Kingdom.
This was something that even a first class Lampuri Kingdom company would find hard to do.
However, their surprise was just beginning. When Kennard finally had Sebas give the annual financial report, everyone’s surprise had turned into shock.
In the financial report that Sebas made, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had earned total profits of over ten million gold coins just from household magic machines alone.
In terms of the applicable magic machines, just based on the construction magic machines and the Magic Cars, their profits were over six million gold coins.
Then the production magic machines had brought the Frestech Chamber of Commerce profit of around one million and eight hundred thousand gold coins.
Other than this, there were the bicycles, the cement, the fertilizer, and other products that had generated profits of over a million gold coins.
If they added in the profit of four million gold coins from the five steel mills they had built this year, the net profit for the Frestech Chamber of Commerce in this year alone was a shocking twenty three million gold coins!
This number was one that no one had ever thought of before.
When it was time for last year’s year end report, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s net profit had just broken ten million.
They never thought that in a single year, it would already more than double!
This kind of development speed was just unbelievable!
“Sir chairman……we……In the Lampuri Kingdom, can we be considered a super first class company?” After the room fell silent, Ankhto swallowed a mouthful of saliva and spoke with difficulty.”
“Nonsense!” Heinz reprimanded before saying with a proud look, “The largest company in the Lampuri Kingdom should be the Falcao Chamber of Commerce, it would be good if they made ten million gold coins each year. I dare say that our company in the Lampuri Kingdom is definitely the company that earns the most money!”
Seeing the excited looks on their faces, Xu Yi shook his head with a smile.
“Everyone, don’t be happy too early. Indeed, our company is earning a lot of money right now, but we are far lacking if we want to compare to those old companies. After all, we have been established for a short period of time and don’t have enough background.”
