Osborne was silent for a moment before the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a very forced smile as he said, "Please tell Chairman Xu for me that our side is still looking forward to cooperating with New Flyer.
As for the attitude of the empire that Chairman Xu is worried about ….. I believe that there will be some changes in the future, so don't worry too much. "
Osborne naturally couldn't say anything about the specific situation in the Kandla Empire, but as the one who had the most contact with New Flyer and had the most direct experience of the new steel magic warships produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the Kandla Empire's navy was the one who wanted to cooperate with New Flyer the most.
If it wasn't for domestic pressure, the Kandla Empire's navy would have already thrown themselves at New Flyer's face, wanting New Flyer to hand over all their frigates.
Now they had to sneak to an island more than a hundred kilometers away from the Kandla Empire to carry out the transaction, they really had no other choice.
Of course, it was impossible to hide the fact that the empire's navy suddenly had five more frigates, but the empire's navy had already received his majesty's tacit approval, so they weren't worried about other people criticizing them.
"Well, if there is a change in your side, of course we will respond accordingly." Markin said.
"In addition, the chairman also asked me to tell you that regarding the frigates, our chamber of commerce won't only sell them to you. In addition to you, there are many other buyers who are also interested in the frigates.
Compared to them, your advantage is that you have the frigates earlier, which means you have more time to master them. I hope you can cherish this advantage. "
Hearing these words, Osborne's expression immediately changed.
In addition to the Kandla Empire's navy, there were other people who were interested in buying New Flyer's frigates?
Osborne didn't need to think to know that the so-called "many buyers" must be the Malor Empire.
Because the price of a frigate was over a million gold coins, other than the Malor Empire, where else on the continent would have the financial resources to buy these things for a navy that he didn't care about?
Even for the Kandla Empire's navy, being able to buy five frigates at once was because of the special approval of his majesty and the empire's finance department. Otherwise, the empire's navy wouldn't be able to save this much money for several years.
"Un ….. Many thanks for Chairman Xu's reminder, of course we will make good use of it."
After Osborne nodded, he felt a bit unwilling, so he asked, "But manager Markin, please ask Chairman Xu for me, what conditions will your New Flyer's willing to sell these frigates and the other new magic warships to our Kandla Empire's navy?"
Markin looked at Osborne with a smile, "General Osborne, we are a Chamber of Commerce."
Osborne gave a sigh and shook his head, feeling a bit helpless.
Actually, when the New Flyer caused heavy losses to the Kandla Empire's navy on the endless seas, there were many people in the empire's army who proposed to directly attack the Principality of Constantine and eliminate this arrogant New Flyer.
But after the army's staff carefully studied it, they found that it was impossible to attack the Principality of Constantine.
First, if they attacked from the land, because the Principality of Constantine and the Kandla Empire were separated by the Kingdom of Ruhr, if they wanted to attack, they had to first get rid of the Kingdom of Ruhr.
But after the two consecutive defeats, everyone in the army knew that the Kingdom of Ruhr was a thorny hedgehog, it wasn't easy to touch it.
And if they wanted to go around the north through the Mirando Duchy and then the Lampari Kingdom to attack the Principality of Constantine, they could ignore the Mirando Duchy, but they couldn't go around the Lampari Kingdom.
The New Flyer and the Lampari Kingdom had a close relationship, so the Lampari Kingdom couldn't let the Kandla Empire attack the Principality of Constantine through them.
Then other than land, there was only one choice left, which was to attack from the sea.
However, since the New Flyer's new steel magic battleship appeared, the Kandla Empire's navy had fought with the New Flyer's guard fleet on the endless seas over ten times, but they had been defeated each time.
This made the Kandla Empire's navy agree that on the endless seas, there wasn't a single fleet that could match the New Flyer's guard fleet.
So it was clear that this path wouldn't work.
This also meant that even if the empire's army really made up their mind to attack the Principality of Constantine, it would be a very troublesome and impossible matter.
Not to mention that even if the Kingdom of Ruhr, the Lampari Kingdom, and all the countries around the Principality of Constantine opened a path for the Kandla Empire to attack, could the Kandla Empire really take the Principality of Constantine?
It wasn't just Osborne who had doubts about this, no one in the empire's army had confidence in this.
The Kingdom of Ruhr had only received a bit of help from the New Flyer and they were able to heavily injure the empire's army twice. If they attacked the New Flyer itself, the attacks would be even more terrifying.
In the end, everyone could only helplessly admit that even if the Kandla Empire was one of the strongest empires on the continent, they couldn't do anything to a small country like the Principality of Constantine and a company like the New Flyer.
Moreover, according to the financial report that the empire's finance minister Hastri Marquis had personally prepared, the empire could only cooperate with the New Flyer and introduce the magic machine industry driven by the New Flyer into the empire, which would bring more benefits to the empire.
Actually, if it wasn't for his face, the emperor would have already done this … …
So it could be said that Osborne's proposal on behalf of the empire's army, or rather a warning, was something that any company on the continent had to treat seriously, but it wasn't a threat to the New Flyer at all.
Thinking of this, Osborne felt incomparably depressed. Looking at Markin's smiling face, he became even more irritated. After being silent for a bit, he stood up and decided to end this meaningless conversation.
"Manager Markin, let's go take a look at the five ships you sent."
Markin saw the expression on Osborne's face and revealed a faint smile before standing up.
"Alright."
When the two returned to the wharf, the large transport Magic Ship had already finished unloading its cargo.
Looking at the neatly stacked variety of living materials on the docks, as well as some ferocious looking military magic machines, Osborne narrowed his eyes and asked Markin, "Manager Markin, doesn't your Chamber of Commerce find it difficult to maintain supplies on so many islands at the same time?"
Markin gave a shrug, "If you're afraid of making money, it's better to close down and go home.
Don't look at me, these are sir chairman's words. "
"Make money?"
Osborne looked back at the lush island behind him, most of which was covered by trees, and wondered.
Just this normal looking island, what could the New Flyer earn from it?
However, this problem wasn't something a soldier like him could understand, so he quickly gave up on thinking about it. He boarded a Magic Speed Boat with Markin and came to the side of the five guard ships that had separated from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce's fleet.
After approaching, one would find that these five guard ships were very different from the other ten guard ships of the New Flyer.
The other ten guard ships of the New Flyer all looked brand new, one could tell that they had just entered service not long ago.
As for the five guard ships that had been delivered to the Kandla Empire, they were covered in wounds. There were many burn marks on the outside, so they were a bit burnt black.
Even the railings of two of the guard ships were a bit crooked, like they had been hit by something.
Osborne looked up and asked Markin with a bit of worry, "They look very miserable, there wouldn't really be a problem, right?"
Markin said with a laugh, "Of course not.
Relax, this is a special treatment that was done when they left the factory. It's guaranteed that outsiders will think that they've just been through a big battle, but everything inside will be brand new, so there definitely won't be any problems. "
"That's good."
The reason why these five guard ships were specially treated was of course because of the pressure of public opinion from the Kandla Empire.
In order to prevent the side that was against cooperating with the New Flyer from using righteousness to criticize them, the Kandla Empire navy and the New Flyer decided to put on a play after discussing it.
The content of this play was that the New Flyer's guard fleet and the Kandla Empire's navy met again at sea, and then a big battle broke out, which eventually ended with the Kandla Empire's navy's great victory.
In the battle, the Kandla Empire's navy "captured" the five guard ships of the New Flyer as trophies, which were the five ships in front of them.
Osborne and Markin climbed onto one of the guard ships together through the cable. Osborne and several of the Kandla Empire's navy officers communicated and confirmed that the interior of the five guard ships was indeed intact as Markin had said, so they were relieved.
"Director Markin, it was a pleasure working with you." Before leaving, Osborne took the initiative to extend his hand to Markin.
Markin shook his hand and smiled, "General Osborne, I believe that our cooperation is definitely not just this time, there will be many opportunities for pleasant cooperation in the future."
"I hope so." Osborne responded with a blank expression.
After the inspection, the Kandla Empire's navy did not continue to stay and immediately set off for their return journey.
Early the next morning after they left, Markin also led the New Flyer's Second Fleet away from the island and once again embarked on a long journey to the Nozdormu Business Union Kingdom.
On the surface, the transaction between the two sides on this island on the Endless Sea was like a wave in the Endless Sea, after rolling for a while, it was silent.
