Kennard was a bit surprised at first why Xu Yi would suddenly say this, but as the Magic Sedan approached the group, Kennard looked over and found that Newman was standing in the group.
As the main contact person between the Kingdom of Ruhr and the New Flyer, whenever Kennard came to the Kingdom of Ruhr for a deal between the New Flyer and the Kingdom of Ruhr, Newman had been in charge of receiving him.
This was Xu Yi's first time coming, so naturally Newman was the one who received him.
Before coming to the Kingdom of Ruhr, Kennard had contacted Newman ahead of time and Newman had said that he would come to welcome Xu Yi.
But in this group of people, other than Newman, there were many high level officials from the Kingdom of Ruhr.
For example, the two people near Newman were the Kingdom of Ruhr's agricultural and business department chief Wendel Witherspoon that Newman had introduced to Kennard before, as well as the chairman of the Kingdom of Ruhr's magic machine industry development committee, Berry Wesley.
It had to be said that these two were important people in the Kingdom of Ruhr, but they were standing in the same position as Newman, standing in the middle of the group.
They weren't the most inconspicuous, but they were far from being the most important.
It could be seen that in this group, there were many people with higher statuses than Newman and these two.
But this made it even more strange.
Although New Flyer's magic machines were very popular in the Kingdom of Ruhr, New Flyer had received high praise from the Kingdom of Ruhr and even received high praise from the king of the Kingdom of Ruhr.
But no matter what, this welcoming lineup was a bit too exaggerated. It was no wonder Xu Yi found it strange.
After looking at this group for a while, Kennard shook his head, "Sir chairman, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. They shouldn't be here to welcome us.
“
Xu Yi laughed before waving his hand, "I was just joking.
Although our New Flyer isn't bad, we don't have that much face to have all these important people of the Kingdom of Ruhr come to welcome us. "
He looked at Newman in the crowd after saying this and said with a sigh, "It seems like Newman will be busy for a while. Let's go into the city first and contact him later."
"Un, it seems like we can only do this."
Kennard nodded and gestured for the driver to drive straight to Caraca City, which was starting to appear on the horizon.
When they passed this group of people, the Magic Sedan couldn't help slowing down because there were too many people.
Xu Yi and Kennard saw that Newman had something important to do, so they didn't want to disturb him. But they never thought that when the Magic Sedan passed by this group of people, Newman would suddenly look over and see Xu Yi and Kennard in the car.
Newman was surprised before revealing a look of joy. He squeezed out of the crowd and rushed in front of the Magic Sedan, stopping it.
"Chairman Xu, Kennard, why are you here now?"
The window rolled down and Newman looked at Xu Yi and Kennard before asking in a pleasantly surprised voice, "Didn't you say that you would be here the day after tomorrow?"
Xu Yi looked at Kennard and Kennard quickly replied, "Sir chairman wanted to come a day early to inspect the environment of your Kingdom of Ruhr."
"Oh, welcome, welcome."
Newman revealed a warm smile and nodded, "Since Chairman Xu is here, you have to stay in our Kingdom of Ruhr for a while. Let me show you the good places of our Kingdom of Ruhr, you'll definitely be satisfied."
"Alright, I'm very much looking forward to it." Xu Yi replied with a smile.
Compared to before, whenever Newman saw him, he was a bit too warm and even had a trace of flattery.
The reason was very simple, because of the New Flyer's investment in the Kingdom of Ruhr, it brought many jobs to the Kingdom of Ruhr and gave the Kingdom of Ruhr many benefits. Newman who had introduced the New Flyer to the Kingdom of Ruhr had received a good evaluation in the kingdom and had been promoted several times in the past two years.
Although he was still the chairman of the Rudson Chamber of Commerce, he had more power in his hands compared to before.
Moreover, according to rumours, he had received the recognition of the king because of this merit. He might even be promoted to the vice minister of the Kingdom of Ruhr's agricultural and business department.
This position could be considered a high official in the Kingdom of Ruhr. If he could be promoted, it meant that Newman could finally step into the peak of the Kingdom of Ruhr.
Newman of course knew why he had received this rare opportunity, so he was very warm towards the New Flyer.
"Newman, who are they?" Newman wanted to say a few more words to Xu Yi, but there was a dignified voice that came from behind them.
The three of them looked over and found that this person was the Kingdom of Ruhr's agricultural and business department's director Wendel Witherspoon who had been standing with Newman.
He could be casual with Newman, but in front of chief Witherspoon, Xu Yi couldn't impolitely talk to him in the car. After getting out of the car, he revealed a smile to chief Witherspoon and gave him a slight bow.
Newman had already introduced Xu Yi to director Witherspoon. Director Witherspoon looked at Xu Yi in surprise before slowly nodding and saying with a look of praise, "I've heard Newman say before that the New Flyer's Chairman Xu is very young and promising, but I never thought that he would be this young. It really is shocking."
Xu Yi revealed a faint smile, "Many thanks for sir director's praise.
Our New Flyer's magic machine industry is a young industry, so it's normal for me as the chairman to be young. "
Director Witherspoon laughed, "Chairman Xu is really humorous.
Are you saying that old men like us shouldn't interfere with the magic machine industry of young people like you? "
"Of course I didn't mean that." Xu Yi shook his head with a smile.
"The development of the magic machine industry in the Kingdom of Ruhr is inseparable from sir director's support."
"Chairman Xu, you don't have to be humble."
Director Witherspoon sighed, "In fact, ever since your New Flyer came to the Kingdom of Ruhr to invest, it has led to the economic development of our kingdom and played an important role in alleviating the financial pressure of the kingdom.
Last time when His Majesty summoned me, he specifically talked to me about your New Flyer. "
"Oh?
I didn't think that our little New Flyer would be able to receive the attention of His Majesty. This is truly an honor. "Xu Yi smiled.
"May I know what His Majesty and Director are talking about?"
Director Witherspoon looked at Newman before replying, "It's mainly related to the technology of importing some magic machines from your New Flyer.
His Majesty is very interested in how Banta City has developed into a prosperous city in just a few short years with the help of your New Flyer, so he wants to create an economic center city in our Kingdom of Ruhr.
But this requires a certain magic machine industry foundation, which means it needs a certain amount of technology.
So ….. Chairman Xu, in this aspect, I hope that your New Flyer can properly cooperate with us. "
Xu Yi and Kennard looked at each other before revealing understanding smiles and saying with a nod, "Sir director, you don't need to worry. I came to the Kingdom of Ruhr this time to discuss the matter of building a magic machine industry foundation in the Kingdom of Ruhr with mister Newman.
As for the technology ….. I believe that we can reach a result that both sides are satisfied with. "
"Is that so?
That's good. "
Director Witherspoon nodded with a faint smile before saying to Newman, "Since Chairman Xu is here, then Newman, you don't need to stay here. You'll be responsible for receiving Chairman Xu.
Remember, you have to satisfy Chairman Xu.
Understood? "
"Yes, sir director, I will definitely do my best to arrange it."
After talking to Newman, director Witherspoon turned to Xu Yi and said with a serious look, "Chairman Xu, if there's time later, I want to have a long talk with you. I wonder if you can give me some face?"
"I can't ask for more." Xu Yi said with a smile.
"Alright, Chairman Xu, CEO Kennard, I hope that you'll have a good time in our Kingdom of Ruhr."
Director Witherspoon gave a nod before returning to the group.
The others in the crowd didn't react when they saw Newman's actions, but seeing that director Witherspoon had gone to talk to Xu Yi and Kennard for a while, they couldn't help being curious about their identities, so they all looked over.
Newman didn't care that much. After calling the two of them, he prepared to head back to Caraca City with the two of them.
When the three of them were about to leave, there was a thunderous sound of horse hooves that came from the road behind them, causing the entire road to tremble.
Since the Magic Car was developed, Xu Yi hadn't heard the sound of horse hooves in a long time, so he couldn't help turning back in curiosity.
When he turned, he saw that on the road in the distance, there were several dozen horses pulling several horse carriages that were wildly charging over.
Normally speaking, it was hard for horse carriages to surpass thirty kilometers an hour, but the horses pulling the carriages weren't normal and the quality of the horse carriages wasn't bad. Now that they were running at full speed, although they couldn't compare to the Magic Cars, they were still quite fast.
Moreover, when the horse carriages were running at full speed, the momentum was very shocking. This was something that the Magic Cars couldn't compare to.
Seeing the horse carriages wildly charging over, the pedestrians and other vehicles on the road all moved aside, afraid that they wouldn't be able to avoid them.
When the first horse carriage was about to enter the station, a little girl suddenly appeared on the side of the road and there was a young girl following behind her.
The young girl shouted as she desperately tried to pull the little girl back, but she was too far away.
The horse carriage didn't slow down at all and the front hooves of the first horse were about to step on the little girl's head.
Xu Yi gave a cold snort and released his magic, creating a wall of wind over the little girl's head.
