The tenth Xinfei Magic Racing Car Championship had officially ended in Xinfei City. The final result was as expected, the Xinfei Racing Car Team had taken first place.
But what was unexpected was that a team normally had two racers. With the strength of the Xinfei Racing Car and the fact that this was Xinfei City, the Xinfei Racing Car should have taken the first two places. But they only took one place this time. As for the other racer ….. he was pitifully placed last.
This last place wasn't because of an accident that forced him to retire, rather it was because he finished the entire race.
This result fell into the eyes of everyone who paid attention to this race and they all felt it was a bit unbelievable.
This was a racer from the Xinfei Racing Car that was specially developed by the New Flyer Racing Car, but he actually finished last?
This was too ridiculous!
Because of this unexpected result, in this Xinfei race, everyone who bet on the Xinfei Racing Car Team lost all their money because no one would have thought that the Xinfei Racing Car Team's racer would finish last, this was simply unbelievable.
However, no matter how disappointed the others were, they couldn't compare to the racer who had this result. Oh, no, this dragon … …
"Xu Yi, you didn't prepare the best race car for me, right?" Kassandra angrily looked at Xu Yi, her eyes almost popping out.
If it wasn't for the fact that she was still in human form, Xu Yi didn't doubt that she would spit out flames.
"How could that be?" Xu Yi quickly raised his hand to show his innocence.
"The race car we prepared for the team was the best and there were experts who tested it, so it was guaranteed to be in the best condition for the race."
"Then how could I be in last place?" Kassandra was still angry.
"This … …" Xu Yi was in a daze. He couldn't just say that your driving skills were too bad, so it was natural for you to be in last place, right?
It was a good thing that Kassandra was just venting because she was in last place. Actually, she knew that it was because her driving skills weren't good enough, she had already experienced it during the race.
"Xu Yi, other than those Illusion Films, give me another Magic Race Car." Kassandra paused before continuing.
Kassandra paused for a moment before continuing, "Of course, I won't take your gift for nothing.
I promise that I will do my best to help the people from your company. "
"Oh?" Xu Yi's eyes lit up as his heart filled with joy.
It wasn't easy to obtain the promise of a dragon. If he could obtain Kassandra's promise with some Illusion Films and a Magic Racing Car, it would be too worth it.
"Alright."
Xu Yi quickly agreed. After thinking about it, he deliberately knit his brows and said, "But there is a problem. Kassandra, you have been in contact with Magic Racing Cars for a while, so you should know that Magic Racing Cars can break. So it needs to be maintained and repaired when it breaks, so even if I give you a Magic Sedan, you won't be able to use it for long."
"Is that so?"
Kassandra's two dark red eyebrows, which looked like two small swords, frowned slightly.
"Then what do we do?"
"There are two solutions.
One is that if there is a problem with the Magic Racing Car, you can bring it back here for us to maintain. "
"That is too troublesome.
I live over ten thousand kilometers away, it would take me ten days to get there even if I flew at full speed. "Kassandra immediately shook her head to reject this plan.
"Then we can only use the second plan.
Our company will open a Magic Car maintenance workshop on your side, specialized in maintaining your Magic Racing Car. "
"Alright, it's this plan."
"But Kassandra ….. Do you know how much investment it would take for us to cross over ten thousand roads to open a Magic Car maintenance workshop on your side?" Xu Yi looked at Kassandra with a strange look.
Kassandra curled her lips, "You humans really like to beat around the bush.
I understand what you mean, isn't it just money?
How about this, after all these years, I've saved up some treasures that should be very precious to you humans.
I can take out some to pay you, is that alright? "
"Un ….. I don't deny that you have the financial resources.
But Kassandra, for our company, it isn't worth it to invest in a Magic Car maintenance workshop on your Magic Racing Car. "Xu Yi said while shaking his head.
Seeing that Xu Yi was rejecting her, Kassandra couldn't help becoming angry.
"I say, Xu Yi, why are you humans so troublesome?
I just wanted you to give me a Magic Race Car and you gave me a bunch of reasons in the end?
Just say it if you don't want to give it to me, do you think that we dragons are greedy people who like to take things from you humans? "
"No, no, no, I didn't mean that at all." Xu Yi quickly waved his hand.
"But compared to that, I have a better proposal. It can solve the problem of giving you a Magic Car and it can also give our company more benefits."
"Oh?
What good method do you have? "
"Kassandra, you like watching Illusion Films, right?"
"Nonsense."
"Then do the other dragons of your dragon clan like watching it?"
"I don't know about the other clansmen, but the clansmen of Fire Rock Island should like it."
"Un, you also like driving the Magic Car, right?"
Kassandra glared at Xu Yi, "Nonsense, didn't you see it?"
"Then do you think ….. your clansmen will like it?"
Kassandra looked at Xu Yi in surprise before shaking her head.
"I don't know.
Why are you asking this? "
"Since you don't know now, let's give it a try." Xu Yi revealed a smile that was filled with enticement.
"Kassandra, when you set off with our company's fleet in a few days, other than giving you a Magic Car, I will also give your clansmen fifty Magic Sedans, a hundred Magic Projectors, and three large scale Magic Illusion Projectors in the name of our company.
As for how these things will be distributed, it will be up to you to decide. What do you think? "
Kassandra was surprised as she looked at Xu Yi with a doubtful look.
"Why are you doing this?
Xu Yi, I know that you humans have a saying that 'there's no such thing as a free lunch'. You're giving me all these things at once, there must be a plot! "
Xu Yi rolled his eyes, "Where did all these schemes come from?
I just want to do an experiment. "
Seeing the vigilant look on Kassandra's face, Xu Yi gave a helpless sigh. He spread his hands and said, "Alright, I'll be direct. Actually, I just want you to help our company test things and see how much your dragon race will accept these two things.
If many dragons like it, we can keep trading in the future and take what we need.
Could it be that you think this kind of normal business is a plot? "
"That isn't certain.
You humans have always been cunning, so when it comes to trading with you humans, it's always the other races that suffer. "Kassandra said with a look of disdain.
"Hey, not everyone among us humans is like this, alright?
Rather most of us do business properly and there are only a few scum who have schemes.
Then again, this is in your hands, what do you think I can do to make you suffer a loss? "Xu Yi said in an aggrieved voice.
Kassandra tilted her head like a naughty little girl to think for a bit before giving a nod.
"Un, it's right to think like this.
Alright, I'll agree to your request.
But I can't guarantee that my clansmen will like it. If they don't like it, don't think that I'll give you back the things you've given me. "
"Of course.
I've already given you a gift, how could I take it back? "Xu Yi said with a faint smile.
Kassandra waved her hand. When she was about to leave, she suddenly thought of something and turned to Xu Yi with a grin, "Xu Yi, since you want to give a gift, why don't you be more generous? Other than the Magic Sedan and the Magic Projector, can you also give me a bit of the fun things I've seen in the past few days?
Perhaps my clansmen will be interested in other things? "
Xu Yi couldn't help blinking as he looked over Kassandra again.
Who said that this dragon only had the intelligence of a little girl?
Right now, she was clearly smiling like a cunning human merchant!
After looking at Kassandra, Xu Yi could only helplessly nod through gritted teeth.
"Alright, I'll promise you.
As long as it's something you're interested in, I'll let you bring a bit back … … "
Kassandra immediately revealed a smile. She stood on her tiptoes and patted Xu Yi's shoulder.
"Xu Yi, you are a very good human, I like you very much.
Alright, I'm going to try out the Magic Sedan now, come find me after you've prepared everything! "
After throwing down these words, Kassandra ran off without a trace.
Xu Yi could only watch her leave with a bitter smile, thinking that he really had underestimated the intelligent races other than humans.
Especially the dragons who were said to have high intelligence, they definitely weren't that easy to trick.
"Xu Yi ….. You really are powerful."
Seveni came over from the side, looking in the direction Kassandra disappeared in as she gave an emotional sigh.
"When you were doing business with the elves, dwarves, and halflings, I was very surprised.
I never thought that you would be planning on doing business with the dragons … … "
Xu Yi gave a shrug, "This isn't anything strange.
The dragons are beings with needs and as long as there are needs, there is a possibility of trading, right? "
Seveni looked at Xu Yi with a strange look.
"Xu Yi, you always emphasized that your identity as a merchant was more important than being a magician, but now I feel that ….. you really are clear on your position."
Xu Yi laughed, "This is called sticking to one's self.
How about it?
Seveni, are you interested in doing some business with the dragon race to practice?
Just as a test for developing the Demon Cloud Continent in the future? "
Seveni turned to look at the fire red Magic Sedan driving off from Xinfei City and her eyes revealed a look of expectation as she slowly nodded.
"Alright, I'm looking forward to it."
