Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer-Novel
Chapter 191: Deal with the DukeIn a smaller meeting room of the Duke’s palace.
There people sat at a table with two men facing a young man.
They are none other than Sam, Duke and the General Spark.
There was a fresh fruit juice that was served after they exchanged pleasantries.
Sam drank a glass of juice without much reservation and he didn’t even wait for the Duke or General to speak.
The Duke even served another glass with a smile.
"Duke Nicholas, I think it would be better if you get straight to the point, as you know I have to take care of many things so that I could take care of my business matters.
After all, my teammates didn’t have a good start and I have to put some extra effort."
Situation turned awkward at Sam’s sharp words.
*Cough* *Cough*.
He coughed to ease the tension and said.
"Sam, as you know, your recent weapons are greatly useful for the border defence and even offence in large scale wars. We would like to buy them for our army.’’
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDuke knew that there was no use acting hypocritical and just came to the point.
Sam calmly spoke.
"I can sell one hundred cannons and each cannon will come with hundred type-1 shells and fifty type-2 shells. This will be one ammo set. And I will throw in a manual on how to operate the cannon.
But the cannon operates on energy cells and the Special fuel. Of course, I will give a loaded set for every new cannon.
But there is a catch here, you know the shells are made of the impact crystal and if you try hard enough you might re create them, but the thing is the energy cell and the fuel needed are only available with me and if you don’t buy ammo from me, you can find another way to get these things."
After hearing Sam’s words, they started thinking but didn’t reply, Sam has yet to say anything about the price.
Sam took a sip from his glass and said.
"Each cannon will be five million and an ammo set will cost hundred thousand and the energy cell and fuel will also be sold in packages which will cost hundred thousand each."
Duke and General took a deep breath.
They knew that the price would be high and they expected Sam would demand this much but they were still surprised. This is a huge sum.
They don’t have immediate large scale war, but there will be soon after this whole competition thing is over as there were so many grudges will be formed.
Just like Sam’s situation, the father of the Peac.o.c.k will definitely want to find a way to deal with Sam after this thing is over.
This situation may happen in many places and they have to make preparations, if Duke can use these cannons properly and make some serious damage to the enemy by occupying a couple of cities, his prestige will increase and he will receive merits at the same time, his territory will also increase giving him more resources.
But spending this kind of money is still a bit painful, so they wanted to negotiate.
"You see, Sam. The Price is a bit too muc..."
Before he could finish his words, Sam already stood up and was about to walk away.
"Sam, what happened?" Duke didn’t catch the point of Sam’s actions. But the latter’s reply gave the answer.
"I am too busy. If you cannot afford this, then there is nothing to talk. I would visit the south east or south west, I will see if any of the Dukes will be interested. The time is not on my side." He shrugged as if he was helpless.
"Deal." Duke immediately said a bit loudly. And then continued.
"I will buy hundred cannons and hundred extra ammo set along with fuel sets. But is there any other way than spiritual stones, maybe we can trade on something?"
Sam sat back and though. There is indeed something. I need hundred million worth of cattle type beasts and half of them must be female.
They were stunned again and they didn’t know how to react. The cattle type beasts are one of the weakest types. They are not much suitable for combat and most of them eat them and some people make jerkies of their meat when they go on long trips. They cannot be sure that they can get enough food.
As for the milk, they don’t care much. Even though, the milk has some spiritual energy properties, it is not that popular. At most the spiritual energy is stable and it can help some recovery and some cattle with elemental properties are compatible for their respective elemental users.
For 100 million, Sam will get more than ten thousand cattle. They are even wondering how can he manage.
But Sam didn’t care for their thoughts and said.
"I don’t care the elemental type they are of; I just need their worth. As for the rest, I don’t need much things. The rest should be paid as fast as possible.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs soon as the money was in my hands, I will give the cannons, the ammo sets, fuel sets will be given after the beasts are given.
I need at least 10000."
The cannons cost 500 million, the extra ammo sets cost 10 million and the fuel sets another 10 million.
Sam traded for 100 million stones for cattle. So, the rest has to be paid. The four hundred million Sam has got from the Duke as debt from regiments was depleted by half for the construction of the estate and the remaining will be gone for the remaining additional arrangements for which he might need to hire the formation tower head and some other miscellaneous things.
All of this can be considered to be his investment and that includes the one hundred fifty million he bought the house with, the rest of the money he had also had a dent as he provided for the rewards of the training and for the investment for the Philip’s batch’s business.
Anyway, he got some returns but he didn’t take it way from Philip and the rest, He just took the investment he made and let them have the profits. As he closed that business, he doesn’t want to take a share from their points.
In short, he needed money and this five hundred million will cover most of the investments he made and he is now only a hundred million away from the break even.
After signing the deal and delivering the cannons to the military zone, Sam went to the estate where the construction plans began.
Sam took out a huge pile of scrolls and passed them to Ford who is guiding the rest of the artisans. Even though, the artisan tower is rich a single project worth of 150 million is worth a lot and that is after the heavy discount to Sam who is a rank 5 artisan. There is around sixty percent discount for him and this is one of the privileges the artisans could enjoy.
Ford has setup a temporary tent for plan explanation and other management purposes in which Sam explained the construction plan he himself made in detail.
The first phase of the plan is the farther end of the estate which is nearing the wilderness on the back of the southern star city. There the houses for the Dragon Hawk tribe and the farm for the cattle, spring fowls, pigs and the rabbits are going to be arranged. At last there would some small large individual buildings for production purposes. These can be called small scale factories and these are for making some products for the future use.
These are going to be the resources for his plan and as he needs manpower and the Dragon Hawk tribe who are new to city and completely unfamiliar with this place and also doesn’t like fighting much could be hired for his project.
They will be his employees. So, the first thing he did is make their residences so they can move here, he doesn’t want to lose more money on inns. So, if they can move here and help him look after farms.
Even though, he would bleed some money for a month, that would be okay. He could give them same type of food he gave to his battalion. Although, it is not very high quality. It is still okay for now. If they want to have luxurious foods, they can leave the place, earn money and eat.
Sam might have helped them, but that is certainly not out of kindness. Simply put, the main reason is his whim. He is in a good mood when Marian said his story and agreed to help them and the second reason is, he need to hire employees anyway, so he can get them easily by helping them and doesn’t have to bother going through so much trouble.
As for the farms inside the dimension, for the past eight months the animals in the farms did grow more and did increase greatly. But they are still insufficient for his project, but he has other plans for that.
But before that, he has to meet his possible business partners.
