"Thank you, Elder Elucía." Xu Yi sincerely thanked Elder Elucía.
"If it wasn't for you, I might have quarreled with Stiel today."
Elder Elucía shook her head with a smile, "You wouldn't have.
Chairman Xu, didn't you already calm down at the time?
I believe that with how much you love Miss Stiel, you wouldn't have really quarreled with her. "
Xu Yi turned back to look at the room and saw that Agnes and Vivian who had heard the news were whispering to Still, breaking out in laughter from time to time. He shook his head and said with a sigh, "That's right, how could I be willing to truly quarrel with her.
But I'm still worried that she won't take care of her body. If something really happened, it would be too late to regret it. "
"I just said that the mother body that gives birth to life is much stronger than you think, so you don't need to be this worried."
Elder Elucía also looked back at the room and said with emotion, "Chairman Xu, I've lived on this continent for a long time, so I know a lot about your human world.
In my opinion, it's very rare for a human man to be so gentle to his wife. "
"If a man can't be gentle to his wife, then he's a failure." Xu Yi said with a smile.
"Not to mention, Stiel is such an outstanding wife."
"I agree, Miss Stiel is indeed outstanding. From the first time I saw her, I was moved by her innocence that wasn't inferior to us elves."
Elder Elucía looked back at Xu Yi and said with a smile, "But ….. Chairman Xu, it would be great if you could be this gentle to others."
Xu Yi was surprised and then smiled, "What?
Did Amelud complain about me in front of you? "
"It's not as exaggerated as a complaint."
Elder Elucía smiled and shook her head. "He only told me the truth about the situation when you criticized him a few days ago. He was very grateful to you because it was because of your criticism that he began to face the problems in the factory. You also helped him invite Vice President Heinz over to guide him to improve his management of the factory.
Now that the efficiency of the factory is much higher than before, he and his clansmen are much more relaxed than before. "
"That's good." Xu Yi nodded.
"My purpose is to hope that he can increase production efficiency, so that he and his clansmen don't have to stay in the factory all day long and have no time to do anything else. That really fails to live up to your expectations."
Elder Elucía looked deeply at Xu Yi and said, "Chairman Xu, I am very grateful that you are so considerate of me and my people.
I feel very fortunate to have a noble human like you as my partner. "
"It's nothing. This is what I promised you. Of course, I will keep my promise." Xu Yi smiled and waved his hand.
"There are not many humans who can have such a noble character. Otherwise, we elves would not always be careful to keep a distance from humans. We are afraid of being deceived and hurt by humans." Elder Elucía sighed.
"In fact, humans deceive and hurt each other a lot, but there is also a lot of friendship and help between humans." Xu Yi smiled.
"The difference is that we humans know how to distinguish between these things. We also know that even if we are deceived and hurt, it is only the problem of that human. It has nothing to do with the entire human race.
So Elder Elucía, I have always supported your idea of letting elves interact with humans more.
Only by interacting with each other can we improve our understanding of each other and try to avoid being deceived and hurt next time. "
"I understand, but there is a problem." Elder Elucía said.
"What problem?"
"Although the elves of our Nightsong tribe have already worked in your New Flyer for close to two years, we haven't had many chances to interact with humans. Or rather, we haven't had many ways to interact with humans, so there are many people who don't understand us elves. Our clansmen also haven't truly integrated into human society and have been accepted by humans."
"You mean ….. you want to find another method to let the elves have more ways to interact with humans?" Xu Yi asked.
"Yes."
Elder Elucía nodded, "Chairman Xu, I've heard from Agnes that young miss Stiel's New Moon Chamber of Commerce has established a singing and dancing troupe for young beastmen girls. It is to show the other side of beastmen to humans and change the impression humans have of beastmen.
Then do you think that we elves can also use a similar method to show the other side of us elves to humans? "
"It would be great if this world had televisions ….." Xu Yi muttered. After thinking about it, he said, "Elder Elucía, I think you won't accept your clansmen singing and dancing in front of humans, right?"
"I indeed don't want to." Elder Elucía nodded.
"My clansmen won't agree to this either, so Chairman Xu, can I ask you to think of a way for us?
I know that your thoughts are very flexible, so you should have a good idea. "
"You really think too highly of me." Xu Yi gave a bitter laugh, but he still seriously thought about it.
Elder Elucía being able to make this request to him already proved that she trusted him a lot.
Otherwise, for this kind of matter that decided how the elves should show themselves to humans, something that could decide the future development of the elves, she definitely wouldn't have come to discuss it with him.
Moreover, this also proved that elder Elucía had decided to take another step forward in integrating the elves into human society. This was something that Xu Yi was very happy to see.
Xu Yi's mind flashed with all kinds of methods of advertising on earth, but he found that there were very few that suited the elves. Moreover, if he wanted to achieve a long term, positive, and stable effect, it would be even harder.
Xu Yi habitually walked around while thinking. After walking around a few times, he saw Stiel in the room and his heart suddenly skipped a beat. He turned back to elder Elucía and revealed a smile.
"I have a way."
###
The news of Stiel's pregnancy was only known by a few people at first, but in just a few days, it quickly spread. Even the « Banta Times » published a special report, spreading the news of Stiel's pregnancy to all of Banta City and even to the surrounding cities.
After learning that the Banta Goddess in their hearts was not only married, she was even pregnant with a child. Banta City and the surrounding cities were filled with sighs and emotional sighs.
But Stiel and Xu Yi had already been married for a year, so everyone's resentment towards Xu Yi had already faded. After learning that Stiel was pregnant, everyone gave their sincere blessings and all kinds of gifts to the two of them.
A few days after the news was published in the « Banta Times », whether it was the Falling Star Manor or the New Flyer headquarters in the Falling Rain Valley, they received all kinds of gifts from different people and places.
Just the gifts received in the Starfall Manor alone were enough to fill up two large rooms.
This didn't include the gifts that were too expensive and couldn't be placed in a room at all.
For example, as soon as they learned of Stiel's pregnancy, chairman Cruz of the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce bought a piece of land near the Falling Star Manor. He announced that he would use the best construction team to build the most luxurious manor on this land, giving it to Xu Yi's unborn child.
Just this piece of land, chairman Cruz had spent two hundred and thirty thousand gold coins to buy it. If they built the manor according to his standards, it would cost at least two hundred thousand gold coins.
Adding it all together, the value of this gift was close to four hundred and fifty thousand gold coins!
"This really is too much, I can't compare to it at all."
Hannas shook his head in shock. He touched his chest and took out a very beautiful card for Xu Yi.
"Compared to this, my gift really is a bit too shabby."
"The gift isn't important, I'm already very happy that you came all the way from Anvilmar City." Xu Yi didn't care that much as he took the card, but after looking over it, he was surprised.
"A lifetime free membership to the Sheldon Inn?
Hey, I say, Hannas, are you planning on having me live at the Sheldon Inn?
But this thing is useless to me, right? "
"I didn't say it was for you, it's for your child. Can't you see that the name on the card is blank?"
Hannas pointed at the card and explained, "This lifetime free membership card allows you to book five rooms at the Sheldon Inn for free. If your child goes to Anvilmar City in the future, you can book a room at the Sheldon Inn whenever you want."
"When he can go to Anvilmar City by himself, why don't you just arrange a place for him to live? Why would he live in an inn?"
Hannas laughed, "You don't understand, right?
Young people will always have some things that they don't want us old people to know.
For example, if he takes a fancy to a girl in Anvilmar City and wants to do something with her, you can't just let him bring the girl to us uncles and aunties' homes, right? "
Xu Yi unhappily glared at Hannas, "Are you admitting that my son will be a playboy in the future?
Moreover, the child might not be a boy, it might be a girl. "
"I'm just preparing him in advance. As for whether it is a girl or not, I don't care." Hannas shrugged.
"Speaking of which, Xu Yi, do you want the first child to be a boy or a girl?"
"It doesn't matter. Comparatively speaking, I hope it's a girl because I like girls more." Xu Yi said.
"But you don't seem to have any other relatives, right?
If you don't have a son, won't you have no successor in the future? "
Xu Yi couldn't help rolling his eyes, "You nobles really … The first thing you think about is the successor."
"You're making it sound like you're not a noble!" Hannas yelled.
Hannas immediately shouted, "Don't forget, you're a viscount, a level higher than a baron like me!"
"Hei, that's because you didn't work hard enough."
Xu Yi mocked Hannas before continuing, "Also, so what if the first child is a girl?
Stiel and I are still young, so we can just have another one. It's not like we can't raise one.
Stiel can't give birth to a boy, right?
Not to mention that even a girl can inherit the family. "
"There are still some differences." Hannas shook his head.
Hannas shook his head, "Look, his highness Eric and her highness Seveni … …"
Xu Yi slightly knit his brows, "Those conservative old men, are they opposing her highness Seveni because she's a girl?"
"That's not it, it's mainly because of benefits."
Hannas shook his head, "But this is a very important reason for the conservatives to oppose her highness Seveni."
"Then what is his majesty thinking?"
"His Majesty the King … No one knows what he is thinking." Hannas' expression suddenly became very strange.
Hannas' expression suddenly became strange, "His majesty has made a very shocking decision recently. Xu Yi, I guarantee that you will be shocked after hearing this."
