Chapter 585: Deal with the Smuggler (2/2)
”What kind of place is opening up?”
”Flavos has one of the most active volcanic regions. And the magma concentration and the fire elemental energy are so high that there are many naturally formed Golems there and it is hard to go there is any time of the year.
Even the Consummate realm cultivators cannot withstand the heat. The Lava is also not red in color. Most of it is in Golden Yellow and is hotter than any Lava you could have even seen in Mov or any other empire.
Some people also go there in normal times, to sit on the edges of the regions so that they can enhance their fire element or increase the resistance to the fire element.
At this time of the year, it would be open only for a month. And only Nascent stage cultivators and Pre-transcendent stage cultivators can go there. Everyone who can find any sort of treasures there can keep them.
But that is only a rule with so many loopholes. Inside that region, everything is allowed, people kill, slaughter and rob as they like.
That is why this is one of the best options for me. I will get so many customers to move to various nations. This is something I cannot miss.”
Sam thought for a while with a calm face. But his mind is a mess. He didn't expect there would be such a coincidence. In fact, he didn't believe in too many coincidences. The Black horse task and the Magma Lotus being the first thing on the list that too in the planet he was present. This is too good to be a mere coincidence.
But after he thought of the gods that are playing with him and their means along with their twisted ways of testing the players, there is not much a surprise if they really made it happen like this.
He is feeling a headache. He was trying to find a suitable volcanic region from this smuggler and go there, pick the herb and come back and try to get to other planets.
That is what he thought. But now, he realized that all he had are pipe dreams. He would already have a handful with the rest of the players targeting him. Now he also has to deal with the remaining competition from all the nations.
This is too much of a hassle.
He looked at the smuggler and thought of something.
”How many nations have you traveled?”
”All of them. Small and big, there are a total of fifteen empires and thirty-seven kingdoms on the planet. Except for the places that are least developed and a deficit of resources, I have visited all of them. I might be a smuggler. But I smuggle people mostly and I sent man people to, many different places.”
”Then I have a business proposal. Are you interested?”
”Tell me.”
”I will give you a ship temporarily and you can keep it for six months. It is quite spacious and it can actually five times faster than a normal ship you guys use on this planet.
After six months, I will give you some ships in the form of payment. They will include two small speed boats. One small passenger ship with six cabins, a bigger passenger ship with twelve cabins, a fishing boat with six cabins and large fish tanks that could even store sharks of this sea, a small ocean-liner that can be both cargo and passenger ship.
But for that, I need you to do something for me. If you are down for that, we can continue talking business.
The smuggler was stunned. He didn't expect that Sam would give such a large payment. Their market price goes to almost three hundred to four hundred million.
But Sam didn't think it is too much. He will need something that could be spending billions. So, he can give a commission like this and the cost price of these ships is nowhere near three hundred or four hundred million.
The profit margin is quite large actually and Sam wouldn't even feel a thing even if he gave them all for free.
This deal intrigued the smuggler, so they went into a private office and discussed everything there.
But there is one step that made it hard for the smuggler to agree. There is a pill on the table that Sam needed him to take.
He is hesitating, but after some thought, he gritted his teeth and took it.
Sam felt a sensation in his mind and smiled before he shook his hands and saying.
”It is great doing business with you. Now, our first stop will be the Flavos empire and for this first phase of the deal, I will be coming with you. I want to take a look at the volcanic region. If you can get this done, you can proceed with the next remaining deals directly.”
Then Sam took him to a ship that was already on the dock. This is one of the ships that was built during the training period of the employees in the factory. It is completely supervised by Sam and The smuggler is quite satisfied with this.
After arranging a time for their departure, the smuggler went to the resort upon Sam's invitation. As Sam was thinking of contacting Yodha again, the man himself came to Mirage city which made Sam relax a bit.
