After explaining everything, all four of them left the place. Sam and Rana went to the industry zone. They looked for land, but there is none left suitable for such a big project. After roaming around, Sam once again wanted to use his ident.i.ty and went to the city management.
But they said the same thing, there is no land for that. The Golden Blaze is occupying one-fifth of the total area and they will also need at least that much land.
When they found no other way, Sam sighed and said.
"I wanted to do this after we start our own business, but it seems like I have done that to start the business. You just look out for all the shipwrights and artisans in the street and see if there is anyone who has skills and wants to change their fates but doesn"t have any chance to do so.
Look for even a small shipwright who provides solo services. Don"t leave any guy, even if he is in rags or even if he is starving to death, as long as someone claims he is a ship-wright or the smith or any sort of expertise with metals, find a way to test them."
"But how should I test them?" Rana asked with a confused expression.
"Just buy every d.a.m.n damaged ship on the sh.o.r.e and test them on them, just go to him ask him to make a weapon. Find a way, we have money. While you are at it, swing by your brother once and make him known that you are starting a business with me. Don"t forget to mention me and find an office on the docks, the best one you could find even if it was occupied, buy it. Don"t care about the money."
"Okay, I am on it."
"How long does this guy take to learn? Maybe the pillow talk that made his father ignore him is just a catalyst, this guy doesn"t have any ac.u.men for starting a business, he just knows how he runs it."
Sam muttered to himself and went around to see the two factories of the golden blaze, but not inside outside the factory. Trying to find a way to infiltrate.
After checking everything, he went surfing. He saw a wrecked ship in the ship junkyard near the docks of the ship and looked for a wooden board of a ship. He took a knife and carved it for a bit and went to the beach.
To surf. He didn"t use any form of spiritual energy, he was a normal man without any powers on that board riding wave after wave. With his bare chest full of scars, he made quite a sight to many people as they watched the feat with interest."
He did so till the evening and went back to his house to take a good bath, he waited for Yodha to come and had a talk with him.
"I need four men, I want them to be loyal, it would be better if they are smart, but even if they don"t, I need them at least smart enough to understand and do what they were told."
"You will have them by tomorrow."
"Do mention, that this will settle their lives. If they do it right, they don"t have to struggle anymore, and if they do it wrong, it would be no use even if they struggle. Do mention this and ask them to come. The nascent stage will be better."
"Sure."
After having another delicious meal at night, Sam took a great rest.
He sat in the front yard of the house which the beach. He looked at the waves as he had the breakfast, four men came to him and saluted.
A single look and he knew they are soldiers.
"Where did you serve?"
"Navy Sir. Third brigade."
"Why did you leave, then?"
"We entered the Navy because that was the only place that treated fairly and to reach Navy, Sir Yodha helped us, we would have been his servants if not for the fact that he wanted to us to join the Navy."
"I hope he explained the consequences of s.c.r.e.w.i.n.g this up."
"Yes sir."
"Then sit down and have breakfast."
"Thank you, sir, but we don"t deserve to be seated with you."
"And why is that?"
"You are a war hero, your achievements are a soldier"s dream."
Sam chuckled and said.
"I will decide whether someone deserves it or not, now I say you deserve it, you take the seat."
"What are your names?"
"One."
"Two."
"Three."
"Four."
"You are named after numbers? Who gave them to you?"
"Ourselves, we are orphans."
"Okay then, listen to what you have to do and in two days you will do it, in the meantime, you will practice it…"
Sam went on explaining what he wanted them to do and for the next two days training them.
After two days, four people entered Mirage city on a ship. Two young masters and two of their servants. No one heard their names before, but they just came to the conclusion because of their lavish clothing and their generous spending.
They threw spirit stones like copper coins, they threw them as if they are too heavy and they don"t want to carry them.
They threw tips enough for a year"s salary for the waiters and they gave tips even for the chef that cooked their food. They just spent so much in one day, that many wanted to become their servants directly.
No matter which street they go to, everyone is welcoming them with open arms. Everyone wanted to do business with them and the same thing happened when they entered the industry street.
But they didn"t stop at any shop, they directly went to the weapon shop of the Golden Blaze and out an order.
"I want these common single-edged swords, two thousand. The basic armor to go with it two thousand, the helmets, the arm guards and the chain mails, everything two thousand each." One ordered casually as if he is buying cabbages on the street.
After he was finished, Two started speaking.
"I need ships, fishing ships. The place I am from, we only know how to make proper navy ships, I like the design of your fishing ships I want five hundred of them."
The storekeeper was dumbfounded. That was the biggest order they got, because most of the time, they get batches of hundred, five hundred, and the most they get is a thousand. All of them from large mercenaries or some n.o.ble family.
But this is the first for them. Of course, except for the military order. The military order is always larger, except for the special armors, the basic soldier armors and basic weapons are all forged in Golden Blaze forges, even though this is not the forge they will order, the main forge will outsource them here.
And they have to give a discount to the military order, but now they don"t have to. This is a civilian order. They can make a handsome profit, but dealing with this order is way above the pay grade of the storekeeper.
"Please wait a moment, I will call my boss."
With that, he ran away even before they can reply. Soon, he came back along with Gnyan.
"h.e.l.lo, young masters. I heard from my subordinate that you need large orders."
"Yes, we heard the Golden blaze forge produces the best products of all Mov empire, we wanted to give it a try, if it is good, we will order another large batch of products. This is just the beginning."
Gnyan felt like his heart is beating fast. "This is my ticket back home." That is what he thought in his mind.
"Sir, please come to my office. We will talk there."
All four of them went to the office that was in the deeper parts of the forge and started talking. At the end of the conversation, both of them threw a spatial ring full of spirit stones. Gnyan was delighted to see this, this is just the advance. The rest of the payment will be done after the delivery.
He stopped all the orders that are currently running in the factory and outsourced them to the rest of the forges in the city and sent his artisans to supervise the work to maintain the quality.
He then started using all his resources to finish this large project.
Due to the advance payment, he doesn"t even have to run dry in funds. He bought all the metal and started preparing that very night.
The large furnaces are running and the metal was thrown and the molten metal is ready by the night to drop into molds.
What no one noticed in the forge is that a shadow moved into the factory. In the bustling sound of the hammers and workers, Sam poured some liquid into molten metal. He then moved to another furnace and poured another kind of liquid.
He moved between both factories and poured liquids into all the molten metals. Then he went back and got ready to slowly enjoy the show.
