Although Sophia had developed an inexplicable dislike and disgust for Xu Yi because she had heard Hannas and Kennard constantly discussing and praising Xu Yi, in the eyes of a young lady like Sophia, even if he was a great villain, he should still be an awe-inspiring and handsome existence.
After all, no matter how much Sophia disliked Xu Yi, she had to admit that he was a very capable and powerful man. Otherwise, Hannas and Kennard would not have praised him so much.
Since he was such a capable and powerful man, even if he was not handsome, he should at least be domineering and mighty. Otherwise, how could he match up to his abilities?
However, when she saw Xu Yi, Sophia realized that all her fantasies about Xu Yi were instantly shattered.
Although to be honest, Xu Yi was considered handsome just based on his face, when he put on this set of clothes that didn't show off his figure and looked incomparably vulgar, it made him look very normal. He wouldn't stand out at all if he was thrown into a crowd.
What made Sophia even more unbearable was that this fellow looked as if he had not bathed for a few days. Not only was his hair disheveled like a bird's nest, but his hair and face were also stained with countless ink-like things. He looked extremely dirty and messy.
Furthermore, his lips and face were deathly pale, without any trace of blood. In addition, he had two large dark circles under his eyes, which made him look even more listless and dispirited.
However, what made Sophia feel strange was that even though his eyes were covered by two obvious dark circles, and she could clearly see traces of blood vessels in his eyes, his eyes were still emitting an intimidating glow. Just one look was enough to make one not want to shift their gaze away.
This person must be very capable. Sophia could not help but think to herself.
Seeing Xu Yi in this state, Hannas was first shocked, but then came to a realization. He laughed heartily as he walked over and patted Xu Yi's shoulder. He asked, "Hey, Xu Yi, have you been researching something new these few days?
Can you tell me what it is?
Let me be happy in advance. "
Xu Yi used his fingers to pinch the bridge of his nose and recovered a little. He looked at Hannas and smiled. "Why are you here again?
Why didn't you inform me in advance so that I could be prepared? "
After saying that, he looked at the other three people in the living room and nodded to them. "Hello, since you are friends of Hannas, there is no need to stand on ceremony. Let's sit down and chat."
The four of them sat down in the living room again. Xu Yi took the hot towel from Vivian and applied it to his face. Then, he forcefully circulated the mana in his body and cast a mental stimulation spell on himself. Finally, he managed to recover his mental state.
Just like Hannas Hans said, he had been working on solving a problem for the past three days. he had not slept more than eight hours in the past three days. Now, he was indeed very tired.
. and Vivian. and Vivian, he had, Vivian as Vians as Vivian and and Vivian as as as as Vivian.
"Chairman Xu Vivian..".
Seeing that Xu Yi was ready and looking over, Kennard took the initiative to extend his hand and smiled. "Please allow me to introduce myself.
I am Kennard Emma. This is my sister, Sophia Emma. And this is Hank Wilson. "
"Emma?"
Xu Yi shook hands with Kennard. He thought for a moment and continued, "Are you related to the Emma family?"
Kennard showed a faint smile, "The current patriarch of the Emma Family is our father."
Xu Yi revealed an as expected expression. He looked at Hank Wilson and said, "Then if my guesses aren't wrong, this mister Wilson should be an important member of the Walmart Chamber of Commerce, right?"
"Chairman Xu Vivian's reaction is indeed fast."
Kennard laughed. "Yes, Uncle Hank is one of the vice-presidents of the Walmart Chamber of Commerce. He is in charge of purchasing goods for the Chamber of Commerce."
"Purchasing goods?" Xu Yi couldn't help but look at Hank Wilson.
The reason why Xu Yi could mention the Walmart Chamber of Commerce immediately after hearing the surname Emma was because many people in the Lampari Kingdom knew that the Emma family was not only a first-rate noble family in the kingdom, but also the owner of the largest grocery business in the kingdom, the Walmart Chamber of Commerce.
This Hank Wilson was walking together with the son and daughter of the Emma family head, and they seemed to be very close. Moreover, he had the unique shrewd aura of a merchant. Clearly, he was related to the Walmart Chamber of Commerce.
The Walmart Chamber of Commerce's main business was selling groceries, so purchasing goods was obviously a very important part of the business. Hank Wilson was in charge of this part, so his position in the Walmart Chamber of Commerce was probably much higher than the other vice-presidents.
Of course, if his position wasn't high enough, how could he be called uncle by the son of the Emma family head?
"Hello, Chairman Xu." Wilson reached his hand out to Xu Yi.
Xu Yi shook his hand before asking Kennard, "I wonder, young master Emma came to Banta City with his Excellency Baron this time to find me for something?"
Kennard waved his hand and said with a smile, "Chairman Xu, you don't need to be this courteous.
Hannas and I have been good friends since we were young and since you have a good relationship with him, then please treat me as a normal friend.
The reason I came to Banta City this time was to be honest just to see you. "
"See me?"
Xu Yi was a bit confused. He looked at Sophia who kept looking at him with a strange gaze and said with a smile, "Is there something to see about me?"
"Of course." Kennard nodded affirmatively.
Xu Yi gave a certain nod, "Even in Anvilmar City, I often hear news about the New Flyer.
Moreover, Hannas often mentions you and the New Flyer in front of me, so after hearing him talk about it for a while, I'm very curious.
Just what kind of person was Chairman Xu?
To be able to make a proud fellow like Hannas praise him like this.
I wanted to rest during this time and Hannas was also coming to Banta City to see you, so I took this chance to come with him. "
Xu Yi gave a slight nod, showing that he understood.
After thinking about it, he asked, "Then young master Emma ….. Un, alright, I'll directly teach you Kennard.
Kennard, you came with young miss Sophia and mister Wilson this time, what did you want to see? "
"Actually, on the way here, we saw quite a bit." Kennard's face was filled with praise.
"It has to be said, I'm very surprised by the changes in Banta City.
In the past, thirteen years ago, I came to Banta City with my father.
The impression that Banta City gave me back then was that it was a peaceful, but remote and backward small city.
But after coming here this time, I've found that there are such shocking changes in Banta City, which really surprised me. "
Xu Yi said with a faint smile, "Actually, Banta City's renovation project has just begun. If you came two years later, I guarantee that Banta City would have changed so much that you wouldn't be able to recognize it."
"I believe."
Kennard said with a nod, "Banta City can attract all these people to come here and work for it, so it isn't strange for there to be changes.
Chairman Xu, on the way here, I heard Hannas say that Banta City's renovation project was proposed by you to Count Samo and that you and the New Flyer are mainly responsible for this matter? "
Xu Yi shook his head, "Not completely.
I just gave a small suggestion to Count Samo, but the one who decided to renovate Banta City was still Samo Count Samo.
Other than that, our company is only responsible for providing some materials and magic machines. The one who really does this is the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce. "
"Oh?"
Kennard's expression was one of disbelief, but he didn't keep asking. After pausing for a bit, he continued, "Chairman Xu, can you agree to a request of mine?"
"Please speak."
"I'm very curious about you and your New Flyer, I want to see how you and your New Flyer can change Banta City. So ….. in the next few days, can you allow me to stay by your side and observe how you and the New Flyer work?"
Xu Yi was surprised before turning to look at Hannas on the side.
Kennard's request was the same as the request Hannas made last year.
This fellow wouldn't be a disciple taught by Hannas, right?
Hannas spread his hands with an innocent look, showing that it wasn't related to him.
Seeing that Xu Yi didn't immediately agree, Kennard continued, "Chairman Xu, please be assured. I just want to take a look, I don't have any other intentions.
I promise that I definitely won't interfere with your work with the New Flyer. Moreover, unless you agree, I definitely won't look at things that I shouldn't see. "
Xu Yi thought about it and felt that this matter was a bit troublesome.
The current Frestech Chamber of Commerce was different from when Hannas came last year. There were many things that Xu Yi needed to do that involved secrets, so if Kennard was always by his side, there would be many times when it would be inconvenient.
"Chairman Xu, I'm different from young master Kennard. I came to Banta City to see you this time to discuss the possibility of our Walmart Chamber of Commerce cooperating with your New Flyer, so you don't need to worry about me." Hank Wilson on the side suddenly spoke up.
These words seemed like he was trying to get rid of this relationship, but after Kennard's request, the meaning was clear.
Xu Yi thought about it and after hesitating a bit, he nodded at Kennard, "Alright.
But Kennard, you have to promise me that you will listen to my arrangements when you are by my side, do you understand? "
Sophia couldn't help glaring at him.
Wasn't this Xu Yi too arrogant?
He was just the chairman of a small company and he actually dared to talk to big brother like this, he really didn't know what was good for him!
Kennard immediately used his eyes to stop Sophia who was about to speak. He said to Xu Yi with a smile, "Of course.
I just want to take a look. As for the specifics, I'll listen to Chairman Xu. "
