Volume 7 Chapter 153 Busy people
As the weather became warmer and warmer, the Sines Continent’s situation became more and more stable.
After the Candra Empire easily regained the southern province with the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s help, the other ten provinces that announced their independence quickly came back to the Candra Empire. As for the other provinces that had fallen into the chaos, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce didn’t need to send any forces. With the powerful army of the Candra Empire royal family, it didn’t take long before they returned to peace.
Very soon, the civil strife of the Candra Empire was suppressed. On the surface, other than the Torea Province that became the Torea Dominion, being treated ambiguously by the Candra Empire, the Candra Empire was no different from before the war, but their cooperation with the Frestech Chamber of Commerce was much closer.
Compared to this, the Marlow Empire was affected even less.
Even if they had suffered heavy losses fighting the Lampuri Kingdom army and the Drake Duchy army, with support from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, as well as losing the army that helped the Candra Empire fight the Rudson Frestech Allied Forces, the Marlow Empire didn’t suffer any foundational losses.
The Candra Empire’s provinces had seized the chance to declare their independence because of the invasion of the Rudson Frestech Allied Forces, but the Marlow Empire’s internal situation had always been very stable and there wasn’t even a single voice of opposition.
After the war, the Marlow Empire was restored faster than the Candra Empire, not even taking half a year to recover to how they were before.
Of course, the Marlow Empire was already close to the Frestech Chamber of Commerce before and after the war, their relationship became even closer.
After signing the peace treaty with the Lampuri Kingdom and the Drake Duchy, the Marlow Empire received many technologies from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce. The magic machine industry sprung up all over the Marlow Empire and in almost every city and the territory of every noble, there were various factories that appeared, looking very lively.
The two empires returned to normal and the entire Sines Continent had gone back to how it was before.
Compared to before the war, only the Frestech Chamber of Commerce received more fame and the magic machine industry became more important to the various countries, but everything else was the same.
Of course, the Sack Kingdom and the Drow Race Kingdom that had been eliminated from the annals of the Sines Continent wouldn’t think so.
But they had already been eliminated, so no one would care about them.
What most people cared about was still the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.
For the Frstech Chamber of Commerce, what defeating the two empires brought, other than the fame, was naturally the most important benefit.
Regardless of preferential treatment and resources that they received from the two empires, the greatest benefit the Frestech Chamber of Commerce received was that their businesses had returned to normal.
After the news that the two empires had signed the peace treaty with the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, the orders that had been cut off by the war poured into the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.
In just a month after the peace treaty was signed, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce received 80% more orders than they did in past years.
As the situation on the continent stabilized and the two empires made their attitudes clear, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s orders kept pouring in.
When June came, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce conducted a sales statistic and found that in the first five months of the year, just the sales of the Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce was already far beyond what it was in previous years. It was even 40% more than before.
This meant that after this war, not only did the Frestech Chamber of Commerce not suffer any heavy losses, but rather their business swelled.
Of course, this was a very easy to understand matter.
After all, through the war, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s fame had spread to everyone on the continent and left a deep impression of indestructibility in their minds.
Just with a single company, they destroyed the allied armies of the two empires and forced them to surrender!
Just this was countless times better than any advertisement they could make.
So although this impression was a bit off from the real situation, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had without a doubt become the strongest company on the continent with no match.
Since they were the strongest company, their products would be the best.
So even the people that had suspicions towards the Frestech Chamber of Commerce and towards novel things like the magic machines couldn’t help being curious about the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s magic machines.
The production magic machines weren’t things that normal people could use, but the household magic machines were very useful.
So this caused the sales of the Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce to soar.
Other than the Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce, the sales of the other departments also increased at differing rates.
The biggest increase was without a doubt the Frestech Heavy Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce.
In just May alone, the Frestech Heavy Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce’s sales broke seventeen million gold coins!
Of these seventeen million gold coins, five million came from agricultural magic machines. The remaining over ten million gold coins came from other magic machines.
The reason why these production magic machines were so popular was because the other countries of the Sines Continent were trying to develop their own magic machine industries, so they needed large amounts of production magic machines.
And this was just the beginning of their tests. Once they had some understanding and truly wanted to develop their magic machine industries, their need for production magic machines would increase even further.
According to the Frestech Heavy Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce’s estimates, they would break through sales of four hundred million gold coins this year.
If this was true, then just with the Frestech Heavy Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce alone, their annual profits would be over fifty million gold coins a year!
With the current trend of the Frestech Household Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce and the Frestech Heavy Magic Machine Chamber of Commerce, along with the other branches, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s annual profit this year would be very terrifying. It might even be possible that it would double all of the profits from last year.
The Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s high level members were happy and sad about this result.
They were happy since the Frestech Chamber of commerce had suffered losses from the war over the past two years, so they were happy that their profits had suddenly surged.
They were sad because the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had signed many cooperation agreements with over a hundred countries, including the two empires, so it required a lot of funds, which would put quite a bit of pressure on the company.
Not to mention that sir chairman also proposed an even more terrifying plan. It was likely the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s profits for the next few years would all be invested in this and they wouldn’t see any profits.
If there was another major war, it would be an issue of whether the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had enough power to handle it.
However, just like there was no country that dared to go against the Frestech Chamber of Commerce on the current Sines Continent, no one in the Frestech Chamber of Commerce dared to go against sir chairman.
As for the new plan sir chairman gave, not a single member of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s high level members had the energy to be surprised. They could only execute this without any hesitation and do their best.
First not mentioning how complicated the parts of the plan were, it was already hard for the Frestech Chamber of Commerce to recover after the war.
During the war, most of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s manpower was used to support the Frestech Chamber of Commerce guards. After the war, not only could the guards not be reduced, they even had to be expanded.
Other than ensuring that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had enough deterrent force, it was also used for the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s future development.
So after the war, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce started recruiting again.
The terrifying battle power demonstrated by the Frestech Chamber of Commerce guards during the war caused countless people to see it as an honour to join the Frestech Chamber of Commerce guards.
So in this recruitment, there were over three hundred thousand people who came.
In the end, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce only recruited five thousand, which was a recruitment rate of one in sixty.
However, don’t see it as just five thousand people. There was a lot of work needed for these five thousand people, so the staff members associated with the guards were very busy during this time.
Other than expanding their guards, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce also needed to rebuild their important trade relations.
The Frestech Chamber of Commerce could restore their businesses in this short period of time because they already had these businesses before, as well as the hard work of their staff members.
Other than that, it wasn’t just enough to restore it. The Frestech Chamber of Commerce needed to do quite a bit to help the other countries build their own magic machine industries.
To do this work, even more manpower was required, so the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had to recruit more staff for each department, which had thrown the human resources department into chaos.
After recruiting all these workers, they also had to train them to help them adapt to these jobs quickly, so there were many problems to deal with.
It wasn’t just the upper management and management staff that was busy, even the normal workers were busy.
Because the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had to delay orders because of the war and all the new orders that came in after the war, even the normal staff had to keep working overtime.
Of course, this was a good thing for the normal workers since they had raised the overtime pay.
So after the war was over, all over the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, everyone became very busy.
But while everyone was working hard, doing all they could, Xu Yi announced a decision that didn’t seem normal that went against everyone’s expectations.
He actually……wanted to hold a personal press conference.
