Sam is a little bit disappointed that he couldn’t make use of the research results of the wood made with the bagasse to his advantage. But that disappointment vanished when he looked at the results of the molasses.
For this research, he has an assistant and it is none other than his refined brewer of liquor. The Ape.
Ape has been involved in the liquor research so much that he didn’t even care about his urges to battle anymore. But if anyone thinks that he is a weak guy, then they would be sorely mistaken and it was clearly proved by the remaining beasts.
Once Yanwu got a little cheeky and tried to mess up one of the Ape’s experiments and both of them went into a fight. Even though Yanwu has the upper hand it is extremely slight and both of them bled so much with so many broken bones and ape with burned flesh that if the rest of the beasts didn’t interfere and inform Sam who was busy, they would have suffered irreparable damage.
`Now they are working on another liquor with Molasses as the base and that is rum. Sam is really getting full of himself. He really did enjoy a drink in his previous life but he couldn’t drink as he liked as it would mess up his system.
So, all he could do is have a good swig after achieving something, doing something significant enough to make him feel the excitement that made him break his routine.
He drank all kinds of liquors. From the cheapest to strongest and he savored every moment of their consumption. But he is not a regular drinker so that he could maintain his body properly.
Now that all kinds of restrictions are gone, he is enjoying and he almost became an alcoholic.
At this moment they researching the rum, even though Molasses the primary ingredient is present, he doesn’t have exact copies of the remaining ingredients.
He has to make do and the results are looking good. At least, he would be able to get the desired results before the elections are completed and he can start this business after the elections are over.
He contacted Raunak to speak about this. He passed over a spatial ring with the recording crystals and blueprints of the new processing plant of the sugar canes.
"I would like to sell this. This is a new processing method for sugar canes."
"It is not that easy, I have to convince the owners of the plant and they are not easy to get along."
"Why?"
"They belong to the first faction. They are so full of themselves that they can even ignore the normal elves with no noble background." Raunak explained with a scoff, he clearly despised these people.
"Okay then, make an appointment with a manager of the plant. I will convince him of this. If I can convince him, he will think of ways to convince his higher-ups. Particularly, when I offer him a decent commission and another great sales plan. Can you do that?"
"Of course, a mere plant manager wouldn’t be from the nobility. You can easily meet him."
"Arrange it tomorrow. I am sure he wouldn’t reject us."
The next day, Sam went to meet Raunak once again and both of them went to the sugar plant where the manager arranged the appointment.
Sam there demonstrated the new refinement process where the molasses is filtered out from the raw sugar and the refined sugar is obtained.
Not only is refined sugar more appealing to the eyes, but it is also easily dissolved and absorbed compared to raw sugar.
The process was also sped up a lot due to the usage of the instruments, inscriptions, and formations.
When the manager saw the new sugar yield and effects of the refined sugar which can be easily digested and there are no impurities, he is really happy and ecstatic. He is pretty sure that the elves who prided themselves for their aesthetic qualities and fickle things, would definitely love this new sugar refining process and the new sugar. He immediately took the materials that Sam gave him to their superiors.
Sam was told that he would be contacted in a few days.
Sam is not worried that this guy would bounce with this method because he only demonstrated the full method, but didn’t give everything away nor did he reveal the details behind every procedure or the full blueprints of the refining tools.
He still held the upper hand in this negotiation.
This meeting might have been held in secret so that he wouldn’t anger the second faction, but he recorded everything that happened here.
And since this place is governed with democracy and a far more systematic governing body, there is no way Sam wouldn’t use it to his own advantage if they did something stupid.
In the next few days, the manager secretly contacted him and asked him for a meeting at the factory.
Sam snuck out of the farmer’s street and went to the factory. There Raunak is also waiting for him along with the manager and another young man.
This young man has arrogance oozing out of his pores with every action. Sam can almost feel the spoiled rotten stench from the entrance of the factory.
When he stood in front of them, the young man looked at Sam with a gaze of disdain and said.
"Are you the one who came up with this sugar refining method?"
Sam just nodded without saying anything. He really didn’t want to deal with these brats, but he has to if he wants to achieve his goals.
"How much do you want for it?"
"How much are you willing to pay?" Sam asked without answering directly.
But this seemed to have offended the young man as he said coldly.
"Answer when I ask you to, do you think you are qualified to question my intents?"
"I am sorry, I thought it is a business negotiation. If it is not there is no point of me being here."
Sam replied and took a step back to leave.
"Did I ask you to leave?" The young man yelled and extended his hand, a vine came out of his sleeve and held Sam wound around Sam. And a green-colored lightning came out of it as it shocked Sam.
Sam fell on to the floor as he rolled around in pain. The young man looked at him and said.
"A puny human like you is not even qualified to breath same air as me and here I am being generous and trying to give you a chance at earning money since I took interest in your idea. Do you really think we are on equal terms that you can negotiate with me?"
As he spoke, Sam just rolled around the ground and he stopped in his tracks all of a sudden and looked at the young man with a smile.
At this moment, Jack came into the plant from hiding and gestured Sam with a thumbs up. Sam’s body was covered in silver lighting and he sent the wave of electricity right back at the elf.
The elf shook violently and crashed on the ground while Sam disappeared into the earth as if he became one with it and reappeared right under the elf and he hit him on the spine directly sending him flying upwards.
But the attack didn’t stop there, he activated the wind element fusion and shot himself into the air to catch the guy in midair and crash into the ground with him.
He finally left him to roll in pain before taking a step back and stretching his body.
"Do you think you can walk over me just because you think you are superior? Damn, elven brains are made of shit."
"How dare you?" The manager yelled from the side.
*Swoosh* A sword blade went past his haircutting a few strands off and the manager fell silent. Jack looked at him in a warning.
The young elf stood up and looked at Sam with an intent to kill.
"I will kill you. I will definitely kill you."
"I don’t think so. Not only will you not kill me, but you will also talk to me normally and do business with me."
He gestured to Jack who played a video from the recording crystal. He then changed the crystal and another video was played.
The first one is the video of the elf talking down to Sam and torturing him when he didn’t want to do business. The second video is Sam kicking his ass.
"If you try anything funny, I will distribute the first video to the second faction and I am sure they can find a proper use to it.
Then I will send the second video to your peers within your faction and I am sure they will find it extremely useful. After all, I believe there is competition within the faction. If you do business with me, not only these videos will stay safe, I can even let you earn a boatload of money from the side. What do you say?"
Sam said as he extended his hand. The elf looked at him coldly, but he eventually opened his mouth.
"Let us talk about the sugar factory."
