Xu Yi's anger towards the ignorant nobles in the Principality of Constantine immediately dissipated as soon as he landed.
Freya immediately threw herself at Xu Yi the moment she saw him.
Xu Yi hugged Freya and heard her giggling. His heart was filled with happiness, and he didn't care about what those nobles were thinking.
"Daddy, let's go up the tower to play, okay?" Freya pointed at the top of the signal tower and asked expectantly.
"Hmm … Okay, but we have to wait for auntie Akali and the others to finish their work before we go up."
"Oh, okay then. I'll wait for a while." Freya responded obediently.
Xu Yi kissed her on the cheek in appreciation. He looked around and saw Linda looking at them with a smile. He asked her, "Are you being held back by Freya today?
Where's Liz?
And where are the two little ones? "
The "two little ones" Xu Yi mentioned were the two sons that Liz and Linda had given birth to for him.
Liz's son was named Sandy, and Linda's son was named Harvey. They were both relatively common names.
Just like Freya, Xu Yi followed the same principle when it came to naming them. He would let their mother name them in the style of the Sines Continent. He would follow the style on Earth and wait until they were ten years old before giving them another name based on his surname.
Currently, the three of their names were just nicknames, for the sake of convenience.
When Xu Yi asked Liz and Linda to give their sons nicknames, the two of them were very touched because it showed Xu Yi's full respect for them.
Although Liz and Linda had long gotten rid of their identity as slaves, they still couldn't get rid of the shackles that this identity brought to them.
In their hearts, they always felt that they couldn't be compared to Stiel. According to the tradition of the Sines, their sons could only be regarded as the bastard son of Xu Yi. They were completely different from Freya.
So when Xu Yi gave them the right to name their children, and said that he would give Sandy and Harvey a name with his surname when they turned ten years old, they were very happy.
Now that she heard Xu Yi ask about the two little fellows, Linda's face was filled with smiles as she replied, "The two little fellows are still sleeping, Linda is looking after them.
Freya wanted to come out and play, but Mrs. Stiel was too busy to leave, so I brought her out. "
When Freya heard this, she immediately pouted. "That's right, Daddy. Why do you think Mommy is always so busy?
Every time I want her to play with me, she doesn't have time. Doesn't she like me? "
Hearing this, Xu Yi was shocked. He looked at Freya's little face full of dissatisfaction and changed his mind. He smiled and hugged her again, "How can mom not like you? She is your mother.
She has been very busy recently, so she doesn't have time to play with you.
You can't blame her. You are her daughter, so you should learn to understand her and support her, understand? "
Freya nodded, but she still couldn't help but complain, "But they all say that you are the busiest, dad. Why do you have time to play with me, but mom doesn't?"
Xu Yi laughed and pointed at Akali and the others who were busy, "That's because dad has a lot of powerful subordinates. They can help dad finish his work, so dad can be lazy and play with you."
"Oh … … I see.
Then why doesn't mom find some powerful subordinates to help her with her work? "Freya asked again.
"There's no other way. That's because there aren't many people in the world who can do what mom is doing. She can't find so many people to help her like dad."
"Wa!
So mom is that powerful!
She can do things that not many people in the world can do! "Freya exclaimed.
Xu Yi couldn't help laughing as he softly tapped Freya's nose, "Could it be that you think mom isn't powerful?
Let me tell you, mom is much more powerful than dad. Haven't you noticed that dad is always listening to mom at home? "
"Puchi — —"
Hearing Xu Yi's words, Akali and the others who were eavesdropping on them couldn't help laughing.
"Hey, Freya, is what sir chairman said true?" Akali asked Freya with a smile.
"He always listens to your mom at home?"
Freya tilted her little head and thought for a while with a serious look on her face before forcefully nodding, "Un!
It's true!
Dad always agrees with whatever mom says and has never opposed it. "
"Ha, ha … …"
The group of people instantly broke out in laughter.
Akali was laughing so hard that she couldn't even stand straight.
Xu Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he looked at Freya. He was afraid that after today, the rumour that "New Flyer's chairman is a henpecked husband" would spread to everyone's ears.
Freya was confused as she looked at the people around her who were rocking back and forth with laughter before asking Xu Yi, "Dad, did I say something wrong?
Why is she laughing so hard? "
Xu Yi helplessly pinched her smiling face as he softly sighed and said, "No, you're not wrong. I'm the one who listens to mom at home."
After saying this, he put down Freya again and said to her, "Alright, you go play with aunt Linda first. I'll discuss some work with aunt Akali and I'll bring you to the tower to play after I'm done."
"Alright!" Freya replied in a crisp voice as she skipped over to Linda's side.
Xu Yi turned to look at Akali who was still smiling and asked with a stern face, "How's the maintenance of the signal tower?
Are there any problems? "
The more stern Xu Yi's face was, the more Akali wanted to laugh. After looking at him for a while, she couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Seeing that Akali's laughter was getting louder and louder, Xu Yi helplessly shook his head and said, "Alright, stop laughing. You and Stiel are old friends. It's not like you don't know how Stiel and I get along. What's so funny?"
After a while, Akali slowly straightened her body and stopped laughing.
But when she looked at Xu Yi again, there were many complicated emotions hidden in her eyes.
"Mr. Chairman, you should know that I've always envied Stiel."
Xu Yi slightly turned his head to avoid Akali's burning gaze. He coughed and said, "Tell me about the maintenance."
Akali let out a sigh and then took a deep breath. Her face once again had a bright smile as she replied in a very straightforward tone, "Mr. Chairman, regarding the maintenance, it's generally good, but there are some small problems. For example, the signal tower will be affected differently in different terrains. Take tower number three for example, according to the survey, there are large amounts of magic crystals hidden underneath, so it will affect the magic waves to a certain extent … …"
Xu Yi patiently listened to Akali's report, and from time to time, he would give some suggestions that he had thought of.
Actually, although the magic machine industry was brought up by him, after so many years of development, there were many problems in the field that even he didn't understand very well.
For example, Akali's research on magic resonance technology was mainly focused on. At most, he could provide some suggestions on magic arrays, but he didn't do much research on the specific construction and various in-depth theoretical knowledge.
Compared to when the New Flyer was first established, where he had to lead almost all the research, the current him was more of a leader participating in the research, setting the general direction for the research instead of investing in the research himself.
Currently, other than having more theoretical knowledge than many people in the field of magic machines, he wasn't that much better than many researchers in the chamber of commerce in other fields related to magic machines.
But this happened to be the situation that Xu Yi was most happy to see.
The entire magic machine industry was a very large and profound system. Of course, it was impossible for him to truly lead the development of this industry by himself.
Now, more and more people could grasp more and more in-depth knowledge of magic machines. This was something that he had always hoped for, and also the inevitable result of the normal development of this industry.
The only thing that Xu Yi wasn't too satisfied with was that apart from the New Flyer, the other chambers of commerce were still far from investing enough in this area. Only a small number of magic machine chambers of commerce had some special technology, while most of them were purely relying on the technology that they obtained from the New Flyer to make money.
Back to the signal towers, according to Xu Yi's plan, the installation of these signal towers was obviously to allow the magical waves to be transmitted to any part of the continent, just like the radio signals on Earth.
Other functions aside, at the very least, the functions of the Magic Communicator would be close to that of mobile phones on Earth.
Moreover, the magic research institute had made a new breakthrough in the research and development of the magic communicator. By fine-tuning the magic array in the magic communicator, they could adjust the frequency of the mana waves released by the magic communicator, thereby allowing them to connect with different magic communicators.
This was already close to the principle of mobile phones on Earth. As long as they continued researching this, Xu Yi felt that it was very possible for them to have the same functions as mobile phones on Earth.
Moreover, compared to the radio signal towers on earth, the magic signal towers were countless times stronger.
The magic signal towers sent out magical waves and they could use these magical waves to affect other related Magic Arrays in the range.
So in theory, as long as it was in the range of the magic signal towers, any Magic Array could be affected by the magic signal towers.
The Magic Arrays that weren't connected to the magic signal towers could be ignored, but if the Magic Array had been specially set beforehand, the magical waves released by the magic signal towers could be used to control the Magic Array.
To give a simple example, if there was a Xinfei Brand Magic Air Conditioner in this range that had been set beforehand, in theory, they could use a corresponding Magic Array control panel to send out magical waves. Then through the magic signal towers, they would be able to control the Magic Air Conditioner.
If it was even more exaggerated, as long as this research was deep enough, they could even control all the magic machines in the range of the magic signal towers!
This was the real magic network that Xu Yi had always dreamed of!
