On the way to the Falling Rain Valley, chairman Pompeii and chairman Cruz never understood the meaning and value of the driver's license that Xu Yi mentioned.
To them, it was quite hard for a carriage driver to operate a horse carriage. It wasn't easy to operate a horse carriage without years of experience, but they had never heard of a carriage driver needing a driver's license to drive a horse carriage. Why did one need a driver's license to drive a Magic Car?
But when the two of them came to the Falling Rain Valley and saw the Magic Car on the large track to the north of the Falling Rain Valley, they were both stunned. They instantly understood why Xu Yi needed a driver's license to drive a Magic Car.
"This ….. This is too fast!"
Chairman Cruz looked at the Magic Car that came from the distance and then passed in front of him. In the blink of an eye, it was only a small black dot on the track and he muttered in a daze, "God, if we were hit by this thing, it would be terrible."
Other than shock, chairman Pompeii's expression was also filled with excitement.
His little eyes popped out as he stared at the black dot on the track. He made a comparison in his heart and found that this thing was only a bit slower than a horse running at full speed!
But if a horse ran at full speed, it wouldn't be able to maintain it for long. However, since he saw this Magic Car, this thing had maintained this speed for over ten laps around the track, covering a distance of over ten kilometers!
"Xu ….. Chairman Xu, this ….. This isn't just thirty five kilometers an hour, right ….." Chairman Pompeii couldn't help asking Xu Yi on the side in a trembling voice.
Xu Yi's face twitched. Looking at Camby in the Magic Car that had just finished a lap, he didn't know if he should be happy or angry.
When the Magic Car was developed last time and Camby came to him for the first demonstration, he had maintained a speed of around thirty five kilometers an hour. Why was it that this fellow was able to drive this Magic Car that Xu Yi thought wasn't that outstanding to a speed of over fifty kilometers an hour?
Although this exaggerated demonstration had shocked chairman Cruz and chairman Pompeii, giving them a deeper impression of the Magic Car's performance, Xu Yi was very clear that maintaining this speed was a burden for this first generation Magic Car that wasn't considered perfect. It consumed a large amount of energy from the Wind Magic Engine, so it wasn't very suitable.
Of course, it wasn't convenient to explain this to chairman Pompeii, so Xu Yi could only say with a nod, "Un, this Magic Car can indeed surpass fifty kilometers an hour, but I personally don't recommend this because it will damage the Magic Car ….."
"Chairman Xu, no matter what, sell one to me first!" Before Xu Yi could finish, chairman Cruz cut him off. "That's right.
No matter what the price is, sell one to me first! "Chairman Pompeii also had an excited look, even excitedly waving his fist.
Xu Yi looked at the two of them in surprise, "You ….. are buying this for yourselves?
Why? "
"You're still asking why?"
Chairman Cruz broke out in laughter. He pointed at the Magic Car that was quickly approaching and said in a loud voice, "Look, being able to drive such a fast Magic Car, how refreshing is that!
There's nothing to say, I have to buy one to satisfy my cravings! "
Chairman Pompeii immediately said, "Right!
It must be very refreshing to drive this thing.
I've always had a dream, which is to ride a horse through the fields, but my body doesn't allow me to do this.
Now that I've seen this Magic Car run as fast as a horse, don't you think I'm excited? "
Xu Yi was speechless. There was a saying on earth that a car was a man's second wife, it seemed like this saying was also true on the Sines.
It had to be said that chairman Cruz and chairman Pompeii were both experienced people, but now that they saw this Magic Car that Xu Yi thought wasn't perfect and couldn't compare to the luxurious cars on earth, they were actually this excited.
It was no wonder that although the top sports cars on earth were expensive, there were still countless people who flocked to them and were even proud of them.
"This ….. If the two of you want it, it's very simple.
Since we are business partners, I can customize two cars according to your personal needs.
But first tell me, are you satisfied with the performance of this Magic Car? "Xu Yi asked.
Hearing Xu Yi ask a serious question, the excitement on their faces gradually disappeared. Chairman Pompeii looked at the Magic Car that came closer and slowly stopped in front of the three of them at Xu Yi's signal. After thinking about it, he said with a nod, "I've seen its highest speed and I'm very satisfied.
But chairman Xu, how do you use this Magic Car to transport goods and people?
It's just this small … … "
This Magic Car wasn't that big. Strictly speaking, it was just an iron plate on the four tires and a metal frame that covered the Wind Magic Engine, traction bearings, and other things. Then there was a cockpit on top of it, which was the simplest structure.
After all, this was the first generation Magic Car, so Xu Yi's request for Camby and the others was to make it as simple and light as possible. So with Camby as the head of the magic machine development center's magic machine designers and the design institute's design, it finally became like this.
It was simple, but it couldn't be considered good looking. It was just like the tractors on earth and it didn't even have a windshield.
This simple front, of course it was impossible to use it to transport goods and people, so chairman Pompeii had this question.
Xu Yi didn't reply. He waved his hand and had the staff on the side pull out a trailer with four tires from the warehouse beside the track. Then in front of chairman Cruz and chairman Pompeii, he connected the steel ring in front of the trailer to the steel ring in the back of the Magic Car.
"Look, as long as there's a trailer, we can put the goods on it." Xu Yi waved his hand and the workers put a bunch of things in the back of the trailer.
Chairman Pompeii secretly calculated it in his heart and felt that these things were at least a ton, so he couldn't help being secretly shocked.
When the things were put away, Xu Yi said something to Camby who was still driving the Magic Car and wasn't willing to get out. Camby then started the Magic Car again.
There was a quick buzzing sound that came from the Wind Magic Engine in front of the Magic Car. When Xu Yi heard this, he couldn't help secretly knitting his brows.
It had to be said, the power provided by the Wind Magic Engine was indeed a bit lacking.
It couldn't be seen when the car was empty, but now that they had to transport large amounts of goods, it was very obvious.
But chairman Pompeii and chairman Cruz didn't know anything about this, so naturally they couldn't tell that something was wrong like Xu Yi.
After the Magic Car sounded for a bit, it slowly began to move. After a while, it was quickly moving around the track with goods that were over a ton.
Although it was much slower compared to when it wasn't transporting goods, it still far surpassed their imaginations. It was clearly much faster than when the horse carriage was transporting goods.
The two watched as the Magic Car kept moving around the track at the same speed for several laps before chairman Pompeii suddenly turned to Xu Yi and asked with a serious look, "Chairman Xu, give me a price."
Xu Yi asked with a faint smile, "What?
You've decided to buy it? "
Chairman Pompeii gave a laugh, "Let those damn horse carriages go to hell!
Alright, Chairman Xu, give me a fair price, I've already decided to buy it. "
Xu Yi looked at chairman Cruz and found that he was also waiting for his reply, so he couldn't help smiling.

Mercado left his house early in the morning.
Although the sun had just risen, because it was the middle of June and the weather was hot, when he came to the Fersen bus stop that was closest to his house, he was covered in sweat.
However, the heat in his body was offset by the excitement and expectation in his heart, so he didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
That's great!
That damn Count Stagg was finally going to scram from Banta City!
Every time he thought of the announcement in the « Banta Times » that Count Stark would be leaving, Mercado couldn't help breaking out in laughter.
It was all because of that bastard's agricultural promotion policy that all the companies in Banta City had left. It made him, a normal citizen who couldn't leave Banta City for various reasons, lose his job in the second half of last year. In the end, he was forced to stay in his old house in Banta City for half a year, living a tight life with his previous savings. He couldn't even bear to fix his broken Magic Air Conditioner.
Now it was all good, that bastard was finally leaving and the companies of Banta City were all coming back. As for him, Mercado, he could find a suitable job without leaving Banta City!
Thinking of the Sandton industrial district that was the final stop of the horse carriage, Mercado was filled with excitement.
Since the New Flyer opened the Xinfei agricultural fertilizer factory in the Sandton Manor, the other companies of Banta City seemed to have received a signal. They all returned to the Sandton industrial district in the past two months to open various factories, many of which were under the banner of agricultural processing.
Now the Sandton industrial district had returned to its prosperous state from two years ago and the various factories were all recruiting workers.
Mercado decided to take a trip to the Sandton industrial district today because he heard that several factories were recruiting, so he was prepared to try his luck.
He believed that with his experience working for the Ireland Chamber of Commerce, it wouldn't be a problem for him to find a suitable job.
When he was thinking about how to introduce himself to the recruiters, Mercado felt that there were more people around him.
He knew that this was a sign that the Fersen Carriage Company's horse carriage was about to arrive, so he temporarily stopped thinking and looked up in the direction the horse carriage was coming from.
However, when he looked up, he was the same as the people around him, stunned.
