Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Chapter 1408 - Strategy

Giyonʼs rapid expansion using small merchants in all of the areas is not really appreciated by the big merchant groups and rightfully so.

They were just imagining large-scale profits that they could reap with the Energy barriers, in fact, they donʼt even need a wholesale price from Giyon, they are ready to pay the retail price she is selling at her shop and are still confident that they can make a profit.

But now the situation is completely out of their hands.

Giyonʼs move was sneaky. For the first few days, she completely dodged everyone saying that she doesnʼt have any thoughts on expanding her business and only wanted to stay in this one place, and just when everyone is thinking that it might be true, she made this big nasty move that caught them off guard.

Some of the merchant groups wanted to take it out on Giyon a bit, after all, every raw material and all kinds of other products are completely managed by them. They wanted to cut the supply off for a bit to teach her a lesson.

Only when they are looking for the people who are supplying to Giyon did they realize something, none of them are the material suppliers for Giyon and none of them actually supplies anything to Giyon.

It is almost like she is completely independent of the other merchant groups within the realm.

The next thing they wanted to do is to go after the small businesses across the realms. Every single one of the merchant groups has this one realm where their influence is high. So, they wanted to go back to their realms and try to buy off the small-time merchants and take over the place as the distributor.

But things didnʼt go well when they learned about the details of Giyonʼs contract with these people.

Giyonʼs contract clearly states that the contract is only valid with this particular person she chose, even if it is their child or nominee, the contract wouldnʼt be valid and she can stop the distribution whenever she wants.

In fact, one of the distributors sold out immediately and handed over the contract to the merchant group. He clearly didnʼt read it thoroughly, so when the merchant group saw it, they donʼt know exactly how Giyon would even know whether the owner kept the contract or not.

After all, he might be sending his people to pick up the supplies. But soon they realized.

The supply is actually sent by Giyon herself and when the person came and saw that the person who signed the contract is not there, he immediately left.

He didnʼt care about the merchant group that tried to stop him. He just killed the people they sent and left without saying a word.

The groups finally understand that Giyon is not as simple as they thought. They wanted to try other ways, but soon they realized that Giyonʼs tactics are not done yet.

Exactly one week after launching the energy barrier product, she announced the next product, Body Strengthening Bath.

She not only announced the product, but she went as far as opening the second floor of her building from which the sales happen.

The product is actually made of the Purple Dust flower and it is Samʼs take on how this flower could be used in the most effective way possible.

He created a powder that could be used as a bath salt which is extremely effective for strengthening the body of even an Astral Plane Initiation cultivator.

Once again, on the product release day, she did some free trials and went on to regulate the supply a bit.

Along with that, by the third day, she had a meeting with the distributors she chose. Not all of them only some of them. She gathered all of them in a large room and spoke to them.

”All of you are the proper distributors from the first batch that I selected.

Now, I would like to give you another opportunity. You must have already heard about the medicine store I opened on top of this place.

It is an exclusive product and it is only available for limited days. After all, the ingredients that are needed are rare and need some time to be grown properly. So, the supply would be a bit regulated which means people who sell it will not have the same level of income as you.

But still, I want every one of you to recommend someone to me. Someone who has adequate knowledge of medicine to sell them and who is as genuine as you. Someone who wouldnʼt betray and sell out the business.

Of course, tell them that I have other medicines lined up and they would be introduced very shortly and in those products, there are medicines that would be sold within these exclusive medicine stores.

So, they donʼt have to worry about being stuck with one product.

Select one person and build another floor on top of your current shop or build an attached shop beside yours and even if that is not possible, open the shop in the same compound side by side.

If you find me a genuine person like asked and they donʼt disappoint, I will distribute the next weapon through your channels and you would be able to get more. Do you understand?”

The merchants were dumbfounded and they became ecstatic. It is actually not that much of a tough job. All they have to do is find someone they can trust and good-hearted. They donʼt have to be saints, they just donʼt have to betray Giyon.

Within their cities, they definitely have connections with local medicine sellers and they knew some good ones too.

They immediately left the capital and went back to convince their friends and acquaintances.

The process was not hidden and the merchants understood what Giyon is doing.

She is trying to build her own group at a rapid pace.

The problem with the large-scale merchant groups is that they need to find someone trusted and make them develop influence in a locality before launching a big proper shot.

But Giyon is doing the opposite. She is not revealing her hand completely from the start and began it with one product.

She went after the small-scale local merchants first and gave this product like an olive branch.

She filtered the good apples from within that group and is making them look for other good apples in a different field and gave them an offer with a different product and made sure to promise that she would be giving her next product to these guys if they impressed her with their loyalty.

This also means that if they donʼt do a good job, she wouldnʼt let them have the second product if they are not successful with this.

She is making the small-scale merchants earn her trust with the enticement of more profits. But the condition is that they need follow him.

They donʼt even know how to react to this. Some of them wants to take extreme measures and wanted to kill a few of the distributors to make Giyon understand her place, but for some reason, the people that were sent of the distributors never came back.

Meanwhile, on Grivonʼs end, the young master Gwan who is the perfect sheep for fleecing just came back.

Grivon who didnʼt see him all this while was a bit worried.

But Gwan came back with extra enthusiasm.

”I would like to gamble. I want that Thunder Shelling Mantis and the Golden Wolf.”

Grivon thought for a moment and shrugged. 

”You donʼt have a problem with the possibility of losing two beasts that are best in your collection?”

”Trust me, they are not the best in my collection, and who said they are the only beasts of their kind in my collection. I actually brought an extra mantis and a wolf.”

Gwan was stunned and looked at Grivon in shock. Who in the right mind would get the same extra beasts, particularly when they are making a collection? That is his question, but Grivon just shrugged and said.

”I knew these beasts would become popular after I win a few rounds with overwhelming differences and then I would auction these extras off for a huge profit.”

”What the hell is wrong with you? Why are you so obsessed with money?”

”Because I never had enough of it and I am a mercenary. Have you ever heard of a mercenary who is not in love with money? I havenʼt.”

Gwan sighed and didnʼt want to continue with the conversation.

”Anyway, what is that you are wagering. You need to wager something big. Something that is worth as much as the flower field and the orchard combined.”

”Of course, I have the perfect thing in mind. My wind elemental herb garden on this planet. That is one of the best herb gardens in the surrounding realms and I have a wide variety of herbs already on verge of maturing.

You will gain a lot.”

”That is great.. I would take that.”
