Chapter 737: Deal With Ananya (1/2)

Sam doesn't know that he is in the eyes of someone at the top. An existence he didn't even know of.

He knew that he would attract some attention from the higher-ups since he made them take so much money out of them.  But he didn't expect that there would be attention from Raunak's side and he didn't even know that he already grabbed that attention.

Currently, he is sitting with his friends and all four of them have crystal glasses filled with rum in front of them.

They are silent and occasionally taking a sip and savoring the alcohol.

Sam soon broke the silence.

”Let's put your journey on hold until the next Palace of inheritance.

There is around two years for the next Palace of inheritance and from the looks of things we might find ourselves staying in this place for a significant part of time.

We can think of it after that.”

All three of them looked at him for a second and exchanged glances in confusion.

Sam chuckled and said.

”I am not changing my mind. I am still extremely adamant on you going on a trip. But I know what you are afraid of. The world is too vast. There is a significant chance that we might drift apart. So, I would think of a way for us to find each other easily in the future and then we can discuss it.

For now, let us focus on what you want to do for the next few days. You seemed to have had a significant experiences travelling all over the planet.”

”I noticed a lot of interesting things. The whole area I travelled is full of fields. Particularly this one area full of cotton fields. There is also cotton ginning factory and yarn making factory. Many men and women work there and even some children work for it.

The cotton is being made to yarn, then fabric and then clothes that could be used normally instead a normal armor. The cotton is also extremely flexible and with the right influence during its growth, it can develop the attributes of different elements.

They are mostly using for the attachments of the armors though. After all the hides are not always aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Particularly these elves and they use this cotton fabric to pad the insides of the metal armor which makes it comfortable for the wearers.”

Watt started explaining about his journey. Jack and Philip are surprised a bit. They didn't know how to break the ice with Sam, but Watt helped them do it.

So, they also started talking about all their experiences. Sam just sipped his rum and listened to them talking.

He learned about so many things about this planet.

These guys just went to every corner and met all kinds of people. They noticed all kinds of agriculture that is going all over the planet.

Sam thought that they are mostly focused on normal crops that are mostly related to food. But there are commercial crops as well.

There is an equivalent to turmeric here that is extremely useful in making inscription ink that are useful for wooden elemental inscriptions and also in form of a spice that could add some value to the cooked food and finally it can also be used as an ingredient in medicine.

In some places there is another thing similar to potato, sweet potato and some more bulb and starchy vegetables.

This is extremely surprising to him. This uncanny resemblance is making him feel a bit curious about the origin of this world.

The resemblance is extremely uncanny to the point that it is almost scary.

While he is talking to them, Raunak sent the resource list of the whole planet and it is almost unnecessary at this point.

When he went through the list he couldn't help but sigh.

”I think we are not going to part from the liquor business anytime soon. But this might be a bit troublesome.”

”Why? Last time  it worked well. We also raked in more than we expected.”

”And that is the problem. There must be several eyes on us by now and some people might even be plotting against us to get our money. I am sure that if we are alone in the forest now, we would be done for. If I am not right, there are at least ten people trying to kill us and take everything that we have on us.”

”Then what are we going to do?”

”Let's put on a show and find out. I would try to mess with the alcohol business once again and see to what lengths they would go to maintain their balance.

Our next project will be related to the rice again.”
