A week later, when the Marquess Of Southguard left the Lampari Kingdom, Sir Alex Ferguson left with a proposal that Xu Yi had personally written for the Magician's Union headquarters.
Although the contents of the proposal were discussed by Xu Yi and Sir Alex Ferguson over the past few days, most of the time, it was Xu Yi who did the talking, and Sir Alex Ferguson who only listened.
After interacting with Xu Yi during this period of time, Sir Alex Ferguson had to admit that when it came to overall planning, especially when it came to business, he was much worse than Xu Yi, the president of New Flyer. Many of the suggestions he made were easily rejected by Xu Yi, and he even agreed that his suggestions were too hasty.
In the end, the contents of the proposal mainly revolved around how to solve the problem of the environment for low-level mages and teachers in Sines.
Xu Yi's solution to this problem was that he hoped that the Sorcerers Guild could promote the positive effects of the magic machine industry, so that the mages on the continent could properly understand what kind of work they could undertake if they joined a company like New Flyer that manufactured magic machines. This would allow them to put down their unnecessary reservations as mages and choose to join a magic machine company.
In this way, New Flyer could vigorously promote the development of the magic machine industry, allowing more companies to design the magic machine industry to appear on the continent, thus creating more jobs that even low-level mages could participate in.
Of course, this wasn't unlimited.
Take New Flyer as an example. Although most of the mages in the company who were responsible for arranging the magic arrays were between the third and fifth level, it wasn't surprising that any low-level mage could do this job.
On the contrary, as New Flyer's research on magic machines became deeper and deeper, the new products produced became more and more refined, and the requirements for the mages in charge of arranging the magic arrays also became higher and higher.
Xu Yi was certain that for the Low Grade Magicians that could arrange Magic Arrays in the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, any one of them could be considered a Magic Array expert among Low Grade Magicians, even surpassing most High Grade Magicians.
Therefore, in this proposal, Xu Yi suggested that the Sorcerers Guild should point out this point when promoting the magic machine industry, so that the low-level mages on the continent wouldn't have any wishful thinking.
Logically speaking, magic research required focus and hard work, and the work related to magic machines obviously couldn't lack these factors.
According to the development prospects in Xu Yi's proposal, as long as the magic machine industry could be smoothly developed on the Sines, there would eventually be a large demand for low-level mages.
This way, not only would most of the low-level mages have a decent income, they wouldn't have to worry about making a living, and they would also be able to come into contact with magic arrays through this job. At the same time, due to the high requirements for magic arrays in magic machines, their understanding of magic arrays would be greatly deepened, and their magical abilities would be indirectly increased.
This point could be clearly proven by the two thousand or so mages employed by New Flyer.
Even if the two thousand magicians of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce weren't enough, adding in the over eight thousand magicians of the two hundred and thirty seven magic machine companies in the Lampuri Kingdom, the Rudson Kingdom, and the surrounding countries, it was also enough to prove this point.
Of course, low-level mages didn't only refer to level three to level five mages, but also the more numerous primary and level two mages that could be called the cornerstone of all mages on the continent.
These low-level mages were the main body of mages on the continent, and were also the group of people that the Magician's Union Headquarters cared about the most.
After a mage reached level three, they would at least have a certain amount of magic power. Even if they didn't join a magic machine company, it was still a good choice to join a company as a guard or join a noble.
However, the magic power of a primary and level two mage was too weak, and wasn't much stronger than that of an ordinary person. Therefore, in most cases, they couldn't find a job that could make use of their magic power.
Even if they joined a magic machine company, they wouldn't be able to take on a job.
Previously, Xu Yi didn't care about these things, but this time, Sir Alex Ferguson came to him on behalf of the Magician's Union Headquarters and mentioned this point to him, and he began to pay attention to it.
That's right, third to level five mages were the main force of magic machine companies, and were the foundation of the entire magic machine industry. Only New Flyer had higher level mages and mages joining magic machine companies, so it was something that could only be imagined but unattainable. However, if the primary and level two mages were completely ignored, there would be a very high possibility of a gap.
Although the current situation could motivate the primary and level two mages to study magic harder and strive to reach the level of a level three mage as soon as possible, and obtain the opportunity to work in a magic machine company, in Xu Yi's opinion, this would undoubtedly waste a lot of time.
Even if these primary and level two mages worked hard to become level three mages, and joined a magic machine company, they would still have to learn about magic machines from scratch, and spend a lot of time and energy to master the relevant technology.
Therefore, rather than letting them waste so much time and energy, it would be better to let them work hard in this direction from the start.
In this proposal submitted to the Magician's Union Headquarters, Xu Yi proposed that the New Flyer and the Magician's Union Headquarters jointly set up a magic machine industry training class. This class would specifically provide training related to the magic machine industry for low level mages who were willing to work in a magic machine company in the future. It would be convenient for them to have a certain amount of knowledge about the magic machine industry from the start, and when their strength reached a certain level, they would immediately be able to work in the magic machine industry.
As a pilot, the first class would be set up in Anvilmar City by the cooperation of the New Flyer and the Lampari Kingdom's Sorcerers Guild.
The Lampari Kingdom's Sorcerers Guild would be in charge of promoting this class, explaining it to the low level mages in the Lampari Kingdom, and the New Flyer would provide the funds, venue, and training personnel.
To put it simply, the Sorcerers Guild would provide support in name, and the New Flyer would provide practical support.
When Xu Yi proposed this solution, Sir Alex Ferguson did not agree at first, because he felt that this was the same as treating the noble mages as tools of the magic machine industry represented by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. This went against the free spirit of the mages.
However, after Xu Yi explained through various data that this would save a lot of time and money for these low level mages, Sir Alex Ferguson could only helplessly agree.
This proposal would of course be studied and confirmed by the Magician's Union Headquarters, but before Sir Alex Ferguson left, he hinted that Xu Yi could make preparations first.
Therefore, Xu Yi and President Eren, who accompanied Sir Alex Ferguson, had a private discussion, and then reached a verbal agreement in front of him.
New Flyer would cooperate with the Lampari Kingdom's Sorcerers Guild to launch a magic machine industry seminar in the early spring of this year.
In addition to inviting some mages working in the magic machine industry represented by New Flyer to give live speeches and demonstrations, they would also invite all the low level mages in the Lampari Kingdom to participate in this seminar.
This was actually a variant of the class that the bookseller had mentioned, but before the Magician's Union Headquarters approved it, the Lampari Kingdom's Sorcerers Guild could not directly reach a specific long-term cooperation plan with New Flyer, so it was temporarily a compromise experiment.
Sir Alex Ferguson said that if the results were good, it would be a strong evidence to convince the Union Headquarters to agree to this proposal, so before leaving, he urged Xu Yi and President Eren to make good use of this opportunity.
Xu Yi and President Eren naturally understood and deeply agreed.
If this matter was successful, it would help the Lampari Kingdom's Sorcerers Guild solve the problem of low level mages, and for New Flyer, it would allow them to have a group of excellent mages as employees in the future, which was naturally what they wanted.
However, after Sir Alex Ferguson left, President Eren found Xu Yi and said that he was not optimistic that this proposal would be approved by the Union Headquarters.
"The members of the Union Headquarters are a bunch of stubborn guys. Ferguson can be considered the most open-minded of them all, but you still spent so much time and energy to barely convince him.
I think it's too difficult to count on the other members who have not seen the huge impact of the magic machine industry with their own eyes to understand this point. "
President Eren had been the president of the Lampari Kingdom's Sorcerers Guild for dozens of years, so of course he knew the situation of the Magician's Union Headquarters better than Xu Yi, so his worries were not without reason.
However, after Xu Yi heard this, he did not look worried at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "It's not important whether this proposal can be approved or not. What's important is that the Magician's Union Headquarters is finally willing to face the magic machine industry as a new industry, and has already shown an attitude of approval. This is enough."
"Oh?" President Eren looked at Xu Yi in surprise.
"I didn't think that your goal was not big."
"No, my goal is very big, but if I want to achieve this goal, I can't be too hasty, because it's easy to fall if I'm too hasty.
For me, whether it's the Marquess Of Southguard's visit, or Sir Alex Ferguson's arrival on behalf of the Magician's Union Headquarters, it's actually very significant.
Because no matter which point it is, it means that our New Flyer has taken an exceptionally important and solid step towards the entire continent! "
