Business and Partnerships

"What, you don't want us to invest or take financial support from us?" said Julis, full of surprises, looking at Kai.

Sara was also stunned, seeing his son in law attitude.

"Yes, granduncle and mother, I don't want any money from you guys," said Kai.

"But, Kai, if you don't want us to invest or take any financial help from us, from whom are you going to take it from, you should know right. That no is willing to invest here, it is not that eastern region is not suitable or here market for doing business is bad, it's just because of Duke William, no local merchant is willing to have a bad relationship with him, though he lives in western region of Buraford kingdom it's relationship with merchant guild of Buraford are really deep and only big merchant group like FASTASIA is able to offend him and go against his will and invest here"said Sara.

"Oh! you are saying that the market here is not back, but saying that who are you trying to fool mother in law. Eastern region is currently going through economic crises, where common people are only spending on necessities due to lack of money and have no money for buying other goods, only government officials have a little more money also road connectivity is bad so transportation of goods is also a problem, government also having a hard time giving salary to its employees,"said Kai.

Hearing that both Julis and Sara did not speak and looked at Michael.

"Sara, prince Julis I think what Kai is saying the truth, though we are family but business is business and family is family, we cannot have your guys suffer loss because of us nor will your subordinate and workers will accept this kind of proposal, both FASTASIA and the Alfrine Kingdom must be rich but they still cannot afford to send money without caring, I believe prince Julis father will also not agree to it,"said Michael.

"But Michael, I am your wife so this eastern region is also my home, I am just trying to help you, what can you do by being rich, when you cannot even help your family when it is going through financial crises," said Sara.

Julis also nods "I have promised my sister that I will help Kai, in any way I can and help him win this competition, so if I don't do something, I will not be able to face Ellen".

When all these conversations between Kai, Michael, Sara, and Julis were going on, Behemoon and Kaya were having different thoughts and were thinking about how they could use the help of FASTASIA and the Alfrine Kingdom.

Kaya and Behemoon, who was sitting beside Kai, interrupted their conversation.

"Miss Sara and Prince Julis, we will accept your help".

Listening to Behemoon. Kai, Michael, Sara and Julis looked at her.

Looking at Sara and Julis, she said

"But without financial help or any investment, what we need is the help of your information network, your chain of relationships and your reputation".

Hearing that Sara and Julis were confused.

"Miss Behemoon, what are you trying to say," said Julis.

At the time Kaya whispered into Kai ears

"My lord are you forgetting that we need a trustworthy source to liquify your property".

Hearing that Kai finally understands what Behemoon is planning.

"Miss Sara and Prince Julis, what we want is that you use your connection and relationships to help us, we need your information network to get us information about activities going on around Buraford kingdom and the continent, we need your reputation as a cover and hide the truth".

Hearing that Sara nodded but Julis was doubtful"Miss Behemoon, I can understand you first and second sentence but what do you mean by needing our reputation as a cover".

"It's related to why my lord, don't need your financial support. My lord already has money that you cannot imagine Prince Julis but all of that is in the form of Magic stones and crystals".

Hearing that Julis and Sara looked at Kai.

Kai smiled"I am rich. Rich to the point you can't imagine"

"Stop treating the forbidden forest as your personal property"said Daoma to Kai through telepathy.

"But master, I am lord of entire forbidden forest. So, basically it's my property and others also agree. Why are you trying to break my dream of act like billionaire? Money is a necessary and most people judge people with their looks and pocket. So, just let me show off before my granduncle and my future mother in law. Let her know that I am a capable guy"

Daoma shouted"Do whatever you want. I will just say it's unnecessary. I can tell you both of them are not greedy people nor they judge public with looks or wealth. There care more about connection between people. Not only them, all the people you have meet till now have same eyes. I don't know why but most people around you are not corrupted by the way of this cruel world. Or may be you are someone who is just lucky to have such trustworthy people around you"

Kai smiled inwardly and looked at Sara.

"So we need a source through which we can convert it into gold, silver and copper coins for daily transactions. So we need your help in converting them into coins, both Alfrine Kingdom and FASTASIA merchant group have power and reputation in helping as supply large amount of magic crystal and stones into continent market without anybody getting suspicious of my Lord, at the same time you will act like you are investing in eastern region and make it look like all the money is coming from FASTASIA and the Alfrine Kingdom"said Behemoon.

Hearing that Julis's note"we can help you with it but how much magic stones and crystal do you have?".

Kai replied, "How much can you take in".

Hearing such a reply both Sara and Julis were a little surprised because it means Kai has a large amount of magic stone and crystal.

"Kai, the requirement for magic stones and crystal are never less and are always in high demand, so through our sources, we can liquify as much as we want due to its high demand, the question is the quality of magic stones and crystal"

"Quality of Magic stones and crystal?" said Kai.

"Yes, magic stones are used for making weapons and items of different attribute magic, while magic crystals are used by magic users in cultivation," said Sara.

Everyone nods on hearing that, they already know it.

"Magic stone and Crystal are grade into 6grades representing 6 stages of magic user, grade 1 magic stone and Crystal are most common and grade 6are rarest, price of each grade differ also by a large margin.

In the current market price, magic crystals selling price is:-

Grade 1 at 10 gold coins.

Grade 2 at 50 gold coins.

Grade 3 at 150 gold coins.

Grade 4 at 300 gold coins.

Grade 5 at 500 gold coins.

Grade 6 at. 1000 gold coins.

As for magic stones because they are more rare their price is also higher:-

Grade 1 at 30 gold coins.

Grade 2 at 150 gold coins.

Grade 3 at 350 gold coins.

Grade 4 at 500 gold coins.

Grade 5 at 1000 gold coins.

Grade 6 at 3000 gold coins."

Hearing that Kai started laughing.

HAHAHAHA

Kai's sudden laughter scared Sara and Julis.

"Looks like I am the richest man on the continent. Granduncle, Mother in law, if you guys later need any money you can ask me anytime".

Sara and Julis looked at each other then looked at Michael and Daina who also have bitter smile on their faces.

'Why do you have to act this way Kai without any reason? At least try to read the atmosphere around you'

"My lord please calm down, we still have many other things to discuss," said Kaya with sharp eyes.

Kai body shooked and stopped boosting. He got too much excited, knowing the amount of money he had in his reserve.

After all, this is his first time having so much money. But also understand that most of is not going to have much to his personal use. It will be better he invest it on people.

"Miss Sara, your company FASTASIA will, it would like to form a partnership with our company," said Kaya.

Hearing that Julis and Sara looked at Kaya.

"Are you guys also doing business?" said Sara

"Yes, we have just opened our company and got it registered in local merchant guild by help of Duke connection, but after listening to you guys speak that Duke William has deep connection with Buraford merchant guild, I have decided, to make partnership with your company and sell our products through your channels"said Kaya.

Hearing that Sara nods and says, "I am willing to form a partnership but you will first have to show me your product that you are selling".

Kaya nods and brings out the seeds of the magic crop and tells everything about it. The more Sara and Julis hear, the more surprised they become.

"Just how can his kind of crop exist," said Julis in a surprised expression.

"If such kinds of crops can be grown in the Alfrine Kingdom, we will never be short of food".

Sara also nods, as a businesswoman she knows how this product can fully transform the entire food industry.

Sara and Kaya negotiated and finally came to an agreement that they will sell magic crops through FASTASIA food stores and will split, the profit into 70-30 and that Max Efficiency will deal with processing it and making it into the final product while FASTASIA will transport it and sell it in their stores.

Julis also made a contract with Max Efficiency, to grow magic crops in his kingdom on the same condition as Michael.

It was at that time Maya entered the room with a bang.
