37. Forging relationships.



Zidan walked around the members of the fallen leaf clan with his hands behind.


The face of young Master Derris was as terrified as not believing what had just happened.


"Do I have to take off all your clothes and hang your body on the door of this store so you lose your pride, and then you want to continue saying?".


The question of Zidan who had a threat made the members of the fallen leaf clan very frightened like they wanted to pee in their pants.


The young master Derris with his body still drooping and in the cover of fear began to dare to speak.


"Young master Zidan, please forgive us.


We dare not our master not dare".


"What does it mean to come here? Didn't you guys already control the drug market in this northern area by 90%?".


"Truly young master, we did master the marketing of medicine in this area.


But that was because my father ventured to hire a senior-level alchemist who could concoct pills with only 15% side effects%.


Of course my father hired the alchemist for such a high price that he owed hundreds of millions of rupiah to the Bank".


The anger that had previously controlled Zidan's heart now slowly disappeared replaced with compassion.


"Well, get up and sit with me.


Your fallen leaf clan soldiers can wait outside and help my people handle customers or can go home to your clan.


Alchemists are quick to make drugs like the prescription I gave you and learn to purify all those drugs, don't stop before they work".


"Young gentlemen, excuse the carelessness of the servant who came here to disturb the peace of the young master".


Hearing the guilt-ridden words of young Lord Derris made Zidan soften and inevitably forgive him for the incident they had just done.


"You don't have to feel guilty like that, let it pass.


I just want to ask you a few questions, I hope you'll answer them honestly".


"Of course young master, I will answer all your questions honestly".


"Okay, first question.


Why did the clan of deciduous leaves open a drug store in the northern region of this district?


Isn't your clan in the west of this district?


Second, why did your father owe you hundreds of millions of rupiah and hire a senior-level alchemist? Isn't that very risky for the survival of your clan?".


Before answering Zidan's question, young Master Derris gulped and put on a face full of sadness.


"Actually my family has been expelled from the main family residence of the clan deciduous leaves, he said, we are now opening a branch family and establishing it away from our clan residence in the hope that no one will disturb our peace.


To the young master's second question, the real answer was because we had no business at all.


We are just a branch family that has only been standing for a few months, because the economy is so tough.


Finally my father decided to owe hundreds of millions of rupiah in the Bank to hire senior-level alchemists,


Dad's wish was for us to eat and live properly, but he heard that the family of the red crescent clan sold the medicine with 100% efficacy without any side effects.


Of course it made my father unable to hold back, now he was fainting in the room and I myself took the initiative to come here.


If there is a drug without side effects, then inevitably we have to close our drug store.


And the alchemist my father hired at a high price became meaningless, not to mention the debt of hundreds of millions in the Bank.


How can a branch family like us pay for it?".


With compassion Zidan staring at the face of young Lord Derris, Zidan was amazed by the thought of young Derris who was so worried about the continuity of his clan.


"Hmmm, okay. I'll help you".


"W-is that true young master? Ka-we feel very sorry and guilty for coming here with the aim of seizing the great alchemist that the young master hired".


Hearing the words of Derris who still mistakenly recognized who the great alchemist was, Zidan became laughing out loud.


"Ah, you managed to cheer me up.


The alchemist you are talking about is me".


The revelation of Zidan made Derris so surprised.


"Young master Zidan, you're not kidding me right.


How could a clan who had the skill and talent in controlling ice have descendants who could become an alchemist?


Isn't it just the fire element controllers who can become an alchemist Master?".


Therefore, if their ancestors were experts in controlling the ice element, it could be ascertained that their descendants would inherit the talent of their ancestors.


If the sect is inhabited by people who have different abilities and do not have blood relations, then the clan is the opposite.


All the clan members had the same abilities and talents as the elements of their ancestors, and the members still had blood ties to each other.


In response to the question of young Master Derris who was still shocked and in disbelief, Zidan started to snap his two fingers.


The orange-coloured flames swirled and flew around Zidan's body, making the eyes of young Master Derris widen.


"Wooow, you are so great Young master Zidan! You're so talented, forgive me for the boldness of a servant who dares to doubt your abilities".


The face of young Master Derris was so red with embarrassment, he recalled the mistake he had made.


He shouted to Zidan for Zidan to bring up the alchemist and Derris could pay the alchemist a higher price.


But the reality was so bitter, the alchemist that Derris was looking for turned out to be the young master of the red crescent moon clan itself.


"How stupid am I to act so recklessly, I'm sorry young master Zidan. It seems like soon the branch family my father created will leave this northern region".


"Who told you to get out of here?".


"No one told us, sir, but your pills are so perfect that our pills will no longer sell.


With the income stopped and the debt of hundreds of millions in the Bank that we could not afford to pay, inevitably we had to sell our branch family land".


"You don't have to worry, we can hold a business so that your family can still stand in this northern region.


You can stop the contract with the alchemist your father hired so much, after which you can buy pill pills from my clan drug store at a discount of 10%.


Of course, the discount is very good if you buy pills with large amounts, after which you can return to sell our pills in the western region at a higher price.


Wouldn't we be the same as making a profit?".


The words that Zidan said, made Derris again surprised.


A young man who was 2 years younger than him and considered as the most trash young master in this Lampung province


In fact, it has a way of thinking and a very mature nature, not strong enough to hold back Derris was dissolved with a feeling of happiness.


"Young master Zidan hiks, I promise the family of the branch of the fallen leaf clan that is under my father's grasp will forever remember your service!


Our branch family will do anything to make your branch family stronger and disinclined by everyone who is in this Nuswantara empire".


"It's good if you want to help my family, if you can attract one of the other branch families from the south and east.


I'll give you a 2% discount on each branch family you bring to do business with my branch family".


"It is with great pleasure that young Master Zidan! My family will gladly help all the family needs of your clan branch".


Finally that afternoon the two sides struck a deal to do business, the relationship between the two is not just a business partner.


It can be said that Zidan became the god of salvation for the family of the fallen leaf branch clan under the leadership of Elder Ming or the father of young Master Derris.


The Zen elder was overjoyed to hear what Zidan had done to solve the problem that the Zen elder had been unable to overcome.


With so happy Elder Zen came to the Saints and promised not to be late in sending more monthly money.


Wishing his daughter would smile again, but what Zen elder accepted was the opposite.


Suci was so angry and went to the academy alone, while Zidan stayed inside his house.


These few weeks Zidan returned to his old habit of being immersed in training, with vigor and a feeling of earnestness.


Zidan reviewed all his techniques in order to perfect the technique, without feeling tired and continuously immersed in training.


The progress that Zidan experienced after entering the jade stage was enormous, Zidan hoped to refine Mikail's crying technique before breaking through the jade stage.


However the technique stopped developing while Zidan was still in the 9th stage of the stone, but this time after he broke through the jade stage.


Mikail's crying technique became stronger with a longer range, even the sound of crying created by the technique was getting clear and terrifying.


The feeling of wanting to continue to be stronger than his colleagues was getting stronger in Zidan's heart.


"Ah, it seems like my progress is so rapid when compared to other teenagers my age.


But when compared to the abilities of the sweet Devil and Ma'ruf, my current abilities are still far below theirs.


I must immediately awaken the other elements within my body! An element that could be an absolute defense for me, the ground! It is true that I must find a way to awaken the earth element within my body!


My defense is so weak, I must immediately master the land element before the tournament is held".


Zidan thought very hard to find a way so that the soil element that was still asleep in his body could rise immediately.


But Zidan's efforts are in vain, he still can not find the answer to the question that appears in his head.
