THE REBIRTH OF A GENIUS. CREATOR/DESTROYER
Chapter 96. Preparing for the Store Opening
Sam in his mansion thought about what to do next. Because he wants to open a restaurant, he had to figure out a way to obtain the source of the supply to obtain the ingredients and along with that he also needed to find a suitable chef who was loyal as well as skilled at mastering the culinary spirit.
But he's in no hurry. This was the fourth day since he entered the eagle cliff city and he had 25 days to make his plan.
Not only would it help him teach Zeke a lesson, the two businesses would also be a source of income for him. Even though he had enough money, he still wanted to earn as much as he could by the time he entered the imperial capital.
At that time he would face the entire imperial Black water organization and he needed to have enough wealth to fight against such a giant.
And all these businesses are just side income, the main income will still be obtained from the black water branch itself.
Sam is still trying to separate the gases in the air but the concentration is still not enough. And his light energy was the same as well, he had to have enough mental strength to use it for any offensive purpose.
For that he had to spend his time cultivating the Divine Spirit Soul technique.
But before he could do that, there was something he had to do. He had to prepare something for the opening of the business. The main focus is not on weapons. He wanted to make some gadgets that would help these people in hunting.
Chaya mentioned that it would take almost three days to make the equipment, so she had thirty days inside the tower, to make some preparations.
He brought along a manual press machine he had made in the cliff town of Falcon. So, he can make some things that will make it easier to complete the gadget later.
Sam went to the board. Everyone just gave way to him without daring to look him in the eye. Now everyone knew that the new rank 5 celestial craftsman who arrived in the city would travel with a strange board and he was also a cruel man.
But Sam was completely absentminded as he thought hard after he recalled something. He forgot to name the hoverboard. Although, he was good at many things, one of his main weaknesses was that he was very bad at naming. [And so is the author, so dear readers please give it a name.]
He went to the pharmacy tower to buy some herbs and all of them had one thing in common. They all have a calming effect and are mostly used in pills to offset the side effects of the aggressive nature.
He even bought a type of sandalwood used in the ointment to provide a relief effect. Generally the sale of these items is very little and sometimes the stock will also be damaged. When Sam came here and bought all the available stock of herbs, the welcome was too happy.
After that, he went to the inscription tower and bought the materials used to make the inscription ink.
Finally, he went to Zeke's restaurant. Although he had the design to steal this restaurant business, he had to agree that this was the best restaurant in town for now. So, he ate a delicious meal and after that he went to the manager's room.
Sam pinned his tailor's badge, and greeted him. In order not to remind them of him, he did not use his board to come to the restaurant, so the new manager who was not part of the twenty minions did not recognize Sam.
"I want to buy booze from you." Sam got to the point. The manager is polite and does not show any attitude. He gives the basic respect that should be given to the customer and asks.
“Master, if you want to buy less than one barrel do not need to consult me, because the counter will handle directly. But if you want more than that, please tell me how much you want.”
"I don't want regular wine, but I want strong, pure liquor without any flavor. Is it possible to sell it?" ask Sam.
"Er... Usually we don't sell it. What you ask for is not suitable for direct drinking, so we do not prepare it in small quantities. How much do you want to buy?"
"I need ten barrels."
"Because the order is big, we will do this. But we will charge the same as the flavored wine. Each barrel would be 5000 spirit stones."
"certain." Sam agreed and immediately paid the full amount.
"Master, your order will be ready in three days. You simply bring this token to take the order." The manager gave him the token.
"I'll send a subordinate. Thank you very much."
Sam took the token and left the restaurant. The manager beamed happily as he looked at the 50,000 spirit stones. He wanted to show his achievements to Zeke in order to gain recognition, but if he knew that these 50,000 spirit stones were responsible for reducing their customers in the Weapon shop, one had to wonder about Zeke's reaction.
Sam went to his house and went to the second floor of the tower. Today, he wants to do one of the most boring things he has to do to make gadgets.
He should practice etching. One of the most difficult skills in inscriptions.
To do this skill, he must master three things. First the mastery of inscriptions, second the painting and last and most important is the control of energy. If he could master this etching skill, he could make his shop a success easily.
He had the confidence that, he could use inscriptions and written formations in the most efficient way.
Thus, when he practiced painting using a brush while infusing it with spiritual energy, he grasped the feeling fairly quickly and thirty days felt well spent.
But he couldn't reach the point where he could set up an elaborate written rank 2 formation through etching.
His skill was only enough to create inscriptions and rank 1 formations and some less complex rank 2 inscriptions and formations.
After the rehearsal, Sam exits the tower and hands Watt his master's token and artisan badge.
"Go to Zeke's restaurant and show me this token, they'll give you ten barrels of liquor and then go to Artisan's tower and meet the tower chief. Show him my badge and he'll give you some stuff."
Watt agrees and leaves the mansion. After that Sam informs Chaya about Watt through a communication token and tells her that he must send some officers who do not have much chance to advance as craftsmen along with a list of materials that he has you need to make gadgets at night.
He would use that day to assemble components and when the people from the handyman tower came to him, he could give them the task of making gadgets. He will use it to make all the components and he and Watt will do the final assembly.
After Watt came, Sam immediately brought all the items to the divine dimension. First, he took out ten barrels of pure liquor.
He took out many herbs that had a calming and sleeping effect and began to get their plant juice. This juice alone is enough to fill more than three barrels. The amount of herbs he had was that much.
He then began injecting the plant juice into the crystal bamboo grown in various zones along with the pure liquor and letting it ferment even more inside the bamboo.
Sam did this to let the bamboo add spiritual energy from each zone to the liquor.
With this level of concentrated tranquilizing potion, the liquor would put one to sleep if they gulped it down.
Sam spent more than a day inside the tower.
After that he picked up the components that Chaya had sent and started assembling.
There were four machines that Sam assembled. One of them is a paddle grinding machine.
There is a pedal, which will rotate the grinding wheel.
The second machine is an extrusion machine used to make billets and rods of various shapes.
The third machine is punching machine. A machine was used to cut certain shapes out of sheet metal, but this time it also had a craftsman tower to make different numbers of prints that would give it different shapes.
The fourth machine is a roller machine, the same one used to make sheet metal. But this one was made of a very heat-resistant metal, not the roller shift he used in the Falcon Cliff city.
After assembling everything, Sam came out of the dimension
He went to the basement and put all the machines there to make a workshop here. He put in the press machine he made in the falcon cliff city and some new prints, all ready in the workshop.
That afternoon, ten people who had already passed the learning stage and were still at rank 1 craftsmen came to his house and brought materials.
Most of the materials are not valuable. They were the peak of rank 1 and the lowest level of rank 2 materials. Because, most of the hunters at most were Beginners and they would only target level 2 and level 3 ferocious beasts and their most dangerous targets would remain at the peak of level 3.
They can be tampered with by rank 2 weapons.
Sam takes people to the basement and explains how to operate the machines and what to do with them.
Work begins at night and continues for up to ten days. Sam takes components made by craftsmen every day and assembles them with Watt. The only thing left for him to do is finish writing on them all and he will be finished with the product he needs to show the case in the store for the opening and also stock for some coming month.
There are still sixteen more days to start the special branch. He opened the shop the next day.
Sam entered the tower and began etching out one component after another. Although there was only one day for the opening, he had ten days that were more than enough to complete the task.
And after the process is complete, it's time to open the store.
