Volume 6 Chapter 87 - It isn’t easy to create knockoffs (1/2)
Xu Yi represented the Frestech Chamber of Commerce entering the Candra Empire. On the surface it should be on the invitation of his highness Frank to build a Magic Car factory in his private territory on the southwest province, while also building a race track and introducing Magic Sedan racing into the Candra Empire. This was to satisfy his highness Frank’s passion for racing.
But in reality, whether it was Xu Yi or his highness Frank, they all knew that this was a probe that the Candra Empire was making towards the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.
Losing twice to the Rudson Kingdom had made the Candra Empire realize the might that the military magic machines could display on the battlefield, which also made them finally pay attention to the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, this small company from a small southwest country.
But the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had clearly supported the Rudson Kingdom, which the Candra Empire had designated as an enemy, so it was hard for the Candra Empire to cooperate with the Frestech Chamber of Commerce. So they had his highness Frank who had contact with the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, using his status as one of the Candra Empire’s princes to contact the Frestech Chamber of Commerce which was quite reasonable.
For Xu Yi, supporting the Rudson Kingdom repel the Candra Empire, other than needing to create a barrier for the Stantine Duchy, was also an advertisement for the Frestech Chamber of Commerce to force the Candra Empire to pay attention to them.
Facts proved that this advertisement was very successful.
The Candra Empire not only paid attention to the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, they attached importance to them.
However, in terms of cooperation, there were inevitable differences in opinion.
The Candra Empire’s priority were naturally the military magic machines that had caused their tragic defeat in the invasion of the Rudson Kingdom and the goal of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, or rather Xu Yi’s goal was to prioritize popularizing the household magic machines in the Candra Empire.
After meeting the southwest province’s governor Duke Megudo, Xu Yi followed the arrangement of Duke Megudo to secretly meet a representative sent by his highness Frank.
The first part of the discussions went very smoothly. His highness Frank rented a hundred hectares of his territory to the Frestech Chamber of Commerce for a low price so they could build a Magic Car factory and a production base.
Also, his highness Frank would also provide another fifty hectares of land for the Frestech Chamber of Commerce to build a race track on.
Only this race track would be in the name of his highness Frank. The Frestech Chamber of Commerce would only be helping his highness Frank hold races in this race track.
They had already discussed these two points, so there were no surprises.
But after setting these two projects, Baron Julian who represented his highness Frank made a new request.
“Chairman Xu, his highness Frank’s personal army needs to replace their equipment and he is very interested in your company’s military magic machines. He wants to buy some to equip his personal guards. What does chairman Xu think about this?”
“Oh?” Xu Yi revealed a smile. His highness Frank as the Candra Empire’s third prince wanting to change the equipment of his personal guards was not a small matter.
If he didn’t receive the approval of the Candra Empire’s royal parliament, it was a great crime to do this on his own. It might even be likely that he would be charged with the crime of treason.
His highness Frank wasn’t dumb, how could he raise this kind of request rashly?
So it was clear that this request wasn’t from his highness Frank, but rather from the Candra Empire.
Of course, Xu Yi wasn’t surprised by this.
After failing to invade the Rudson Kingdom twice and experiencing the power of the military magic machines, if the Candra Empire still wasn’t interested in the military magic machines, that would be strange.
“I wonder which military magic machines his highness Frank is interested in?” Xu Yi thought about it before asking this, “Our Frestech Chamber of Commerce currently has three major categories and seventeen smaller classifications, for a total of thirty nine types. Not all of them are suited for his highness’ private guards.”
“There are this many times?” Baron Julian was stunned before his heart filled with joy.
Since Xu Yi said this, it meant that it was possible to buy military magic machines.
After thinking about, Baron Julian said with a serious look, “No matter what kind of military magic machine it is, his highness is very interested. So chairman Xu, please prepare some documents for me on these thirty nine types of military magic machines and I will bring it back to his highness Frank to read over.”
“I can give you this, but if his highness Frank wants to buy all thirty nine kinds…..it’s not possible.” Xu Yi said in a deep voice.
“Why?” Baron Julian knitted his brows, “Chairman Xu, could it be that you’re worried that his highness Frank can’t pay?”
“Of course not.” Xu Yi shook his head, “It’s just that several kinds of military magic machines aren’t suited for his highness Frank’s personal guards. For example, the naval military magic machines, I think that his highness Frank’s guards wouldn’t be able to use them, right? Even the fixed point high intensity Magic Cannon, it would be used for large scale armies, so his highness Frank won’t need it. Also there’s……”
Xu Yi gave examples one by one while Baron Julian wrote them down.
After Xu Yi finished, Baron Julian looked over the paper before looking up to say, “Chairman Xu, you said that there were a total of thirty nine kinds of military magic machines, there are twenty three kinds that aren’t suitable. Does that mean that the other sixteen are? Then can I place an order for those sixteen types on behalf of his highness? You wouldn’t reject this, right?”
