"As for the production magic machine technology ….. I do have the intention of transferring it."
Hearing Xu Yi's words, the eyes of the Count Of Aylwin and the Count Of Mardouf who was eavesdropping not far away lit up at the same time.
"Then ….. Chairman Xu, how about we take this chance to talk?" The Count Of Aylwin immediately invited Xu Yi.
"Alright." Xu Yi agreed with a smile.
The two of them didn't lower their voices, so not only did the Count Of Mardouf not far away hear it, even chairman Cruz heard it.
Chairman Cruz looked at Xu Yi with a bit of confusion, not understanding why he agreed so easily.
It had to be known that when it came to the production magic machine technology, even if the Lampari Kingdom wanted to transfer it to the New Flyer, they had spent a lot of effort to obtain the agreement of the New Flyer.
After that, it took several years of effort before the Lampari Kingdom grasped the basic technology. Moreover, in these two years, they were able to make some relatively low end machines.
Now that the Kandla Empire had only asked, Xu Yi had actually agreed.
In comparison, wasn't he favoring one too much and discriminating against the other?
Thinking of the rumours he had mentioned to Xu Yi before, chairman Cruz couldn't help feeling a bit dissatisfied.
This Xu Yi, he was so generous to the Kandla Empire, but he was so strict with the Lampari Kingdom that he had a close relationship with. This really couldn't be justified.
However, this thought only lingered in chairman Cruz's mind for a bit before he threw it out.
He had known Xu Yi for over ten years, so he understood Xu Yi very well.
He was very clear that Xu Yi wasn't someone who liked the new and disliked the old. He had made this decision for another reason.
Thinking of this, chairman Cruz suppressed the doubts in his heart and said to the Count Of Mardouf with a smile, "Sir Count, as for the two roads around Wimbledon City, our company has made a plan based on the preliminary results. What do you think … …
###
After two days of discussions, Xu Yi represented the New Flyer and the Count Of Aylwin represented the Kandra Imperial Magical Industries Administration reached a new technology transfer agreement.
The New Flyer would transfer the various production magic machines needed for road construction to the Kandla Empire and send technicians to help the Kandla Empire master these technologies.
There were one hundred and twenty seven projects in this agreement and the total amount was seven million and six hundred thousand gold coins.
At the same time, the Kandla Empire would give some preferential treatment to the New Flyer because of this technology transfer. For example, the Kandra Imperial Magical Industries Administration represented by the Count Of Aylwin had listed the New Flyer as one of their important partners, so they would give the New Flyer special treatment.
For example, when the New Flyer's magic machines entered the Kandla Empire, they had to be inspected by the magic machine industry management department before they could be sold.
Now that the magic machine industry management department had listed them as an important partner, the New Flyer's products would be exempted from inspection when they entered the Kandla Empire. At the same time, they would be officially recommended products by the magic machine industry management department.
The former allowed the New Flyer's products to enter the Kandla Empire without going through many procedures, saving a large amount of time and manpower.
Although the latter wasn't that important with the New Flyer's current fame, the magic machine industry management department had promised that if the Kandla Empire needed to use magic machines, they would use the New Flyer's products. Just based on this, it would bring an incalculable amount of profit to the New Flyer.
In terms of pure economic benefits, the New Flyer transferring the production magic machine technology to the Kandla Empire was without a doubt a very profitable business.
However, Chairman Cruise, who had personally participated in the signing of the agreement, was still puzzled by this.
"Xu Yi, why are you giving away this precious technology so easily?
If it was up to me, you could just hold it in your hands and ignore those fellows from the Kandla Empire.
Since they want to develop, they need these production magic machines.
Letting them buy from your company, wouldn't you earn even more? "
"If I just want to earn money, your suggestion would be the best choice." Xu Yi shook his head.
Xu Yi shook his head, "But it's clear that I'm not just doing this."
"Alright, I know that you have big goals and don't care about earning money.
But have you ever thought that the Kandla Empire isn't a small country? If you give the technology to them, as long as they are willing to invest in it, they might be able to make their own production magic machines without your company.
When that time comes, your New Flyer's position in their hearts won't be as important as it is now, don't you think that this is very dangerous? "
Xu Yi turned to look at chairman Cruz with a teasing smile on his face.
"Do you really think ….. that if I give them the technology, they will be able to make the production magic machines?"
"I know what you mean.
Of course they won't be able to grasp it in a short period of time, but the Kandla Empire is a large empire. If they are given some time, they will definitely be able to grasp it. "Chairman Cruz waved his hand as he spoke.
"Cruz, you are considered an old man in this industry, do you still not understand the importance of a complete industrial system?" Xu Yi shook his head.
"Relax, even if the Kandla Empire has the same level of production magic machine technology as our company, it is impossible for them to make a single production magic machine with their own power."
"How is that possible?" Chairman Cruz had a look of disbelief.
"You don't believe me?" Xu Yi revealed a faint smile.
"Then let's make a bet?
If the Kandla Empire can make a production magic machine with their own power in three years, I will give the same technology to your Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce for free.
If they can't, your Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce will have to complete a project for our company. "
Chairman Cruz knit his brows, "Xu Yi, this bet doesn't seem right, right?
Even if we didn't make a bet, do you think that I would refuse to help you complete a project? "After saying that, he laughed.
After laughing, he said this, "Of course, if you don't give me a single copper coin, I will have to properly consider it."
"Of course it's impossible not to give money, so we'll follow the normal arrangements.
But ….. you might not be willing to do this project.
How about it?
Are you willing to accept this bet? "
"I might not be willing?"
Chairman Cruz muttered with knit brows. He thought that the project Xu Yi gave him and it was something the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce could complete, so it shouldn't be too excessive.
Then why did Xu Yi want to make this bet with him?
Could it be that he wanted him to believe that the Kandla Empire couldn't make a production magic machine in three years?
"How about it?
Do you want to bet? "Seeing that chairman Cruz was still hesitating, Xu Yi urged him.
Chairman Cruz thought for a bit before giving a nod.
"Alright, then we'll bet!
Three years.
Of course, if the Kandla Empire goes smoothly, you might lose next year. "
Chairman Cruz deliberately revealed a drooling look as he said with a laugh, "The production magic machine technology, although our Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce won't mainly invest in this, it's still good to earn a bit of money."
"First you have to be able to get it."
Xu Yi revealed a smile. He looked up and pointed at the Magic Sedan he drove over before saying to chairman Cruz, "Since you'll be in Wimbledon City for a while, I'll give this Magic Sedan to you first. After you're done, just send it to our company's branch here."
Chairman Cruz was surprised, "Where are you going now?"
Xu Yi waved his hand and the scattered subordinates of the New Flyer came over.
"Since I've transferred the production magic machine technology to the Kandla Empire, do you think the Malor Empire will let me off?"
"This means that you're heading to the Malor Empire right now?"
"Right."
"You're giving me the Magic Sedan, how are you going?"
Xu Yi smiled without replying as he looked up at the sky.
After a while, there was a black figure that quickly floated over from the west.
Chairman Cruz understood, "Hei, so you're using the Magic Airship to fly over.
This is indeed much faster than the Magic Sedan and it's much more comfortable.
Right, Xu Yi, speaking of this ….. how about you sell me a Magic Airship?
I spend more time outside than you, so if I have a Magic Airship, I can save quite a bit of effort. "
"The daily consumption and maintenance cost of a Magic Airship is over a hundred times that of a Magic Sedan, are you certain you need it?" Xu Yi looked at him with a bit of a funny look.
"Moreover, just the price ….. This Magic Airship costs five hundred thousand gold coins, are you really willing to buy it?"
"Five hundred thousand gold coins?" Chairman Cruz's lips twitched, as if he felt a bit of heartache.
But after thinking about it, he forcefully gritted his teeth, "Alright!
Five hundred thousand it is!
As long as you're willing to sell it, I'm willing to buy it! "
Xu Yi looked up at the Magic Airship that was slowly descending in front of him and said in a soft voice, "Don't blame me for not reminding you.
The Lampari Kingdom's parliament has already passed a ban on the kingdom's airspace last month, forbidding all unapproved flying objects from flying over the kingdom's airspace. The Magic Airship is one of them. "
Chairman Cruz was surprised, but then he waved his hand without caring at all.
"This is normal since this thing is flying in the sky, so it's very dangerous, so it's normal to have a ban.
Anyway, with our Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce's current position, it shouldn't be hard to get a special pass. "
"The reason I'm telling you this is ….. Since the Lampari Kingdom has already passed this ban, it's very likely that the other countries on the continent will follow suit.
This means that if you want to fly in the Magic Airship in the future, you won't have that freedom.
In this kind of situation, you still want to buy it? "
Hearing Xu Yi say this, chairman Cruz's decision that he had just made was immediately shaken.
He wanted to buy the Magic Airship to make it easier for him to travel between countries on the continent. If every country had the same ban, this convenience wouldn't exist and there would be less meaning in buying it.
Seeing chairman Cruz hesitate again, Xu Yi gave a laugh and patted his shoulder, "Come find me when you've thought it through."
After saying this, he led his subordinates into the Magic Airship that had already opened the hatch. After a while, the hatch closed and they flew into the sky, disappearing without a trace.
Chairman Cruz looked in the direction the Magic Airship disappeared in in a daze before turning back to look at the Magic Sedan that Xu Yi left behind, helplessly shaking his head.
