Sam went back to the brewery and handed the barrel over to the Ape.
This is actually a newly made wine with the local fruit. The last produce was all in the hands of the faction 2 brewery.
Sam only got his hands on this fruit through raunak and buying the fruit off the market.
So the quantity of wine is little. This is going on shelves of his bars this week and faction 2 will finally become anxious enough to stop coming after Sam and try to reduce the damage that happened to their factory by reducing the cost of giving out different offers and discounts on their wines.
This is what Sam is trying to achieve.
Because in the past few days, the number of people who are trying to cause trouble in the bar is increasing and if not for the local people who liked the wine so much and that included the guards of the city reacted violently.
Every time they came to create any sort of trouble, the guards are leaving them half-dead and throwing them in the prison afterward.
The situation is being controlled by the customers, not by Sam, or the employees that are given to him by Raunak. The situation is extremely smooth for Sam.
And by the end of the first month, since he started the business, Sam already got orders from other bars. They reached out to him to buy his wine.
Sam did agree, but he didn't give the new wines to them. He gave out the old wines which are already in the five stores prior to this.
And at the same time, he sent the new bars this old stock, he started sending the new stock which is made of the local produce. But this wine is a limited edition as most fruit harvest has already gone to faction 2.
So, this became a hot product and expensive.
While Sam is raking in the money. And he is raking this money without much capital. Most fruit is coming from the large orchards in his divine dimension and in fact, most of the wine he sold off is the excess wine that was made by the Ape due to the excess fruit he is getting every month or in fact every day.
He has loads of wine. He can literally drink one bottle, use one to wash his feet, one to wash his hands, and the other to wash his face, and finally pour one down while doing all three tasks.
He didn't want to introduce all this excess wine in his organization because many of his subordinates are making wine and alcohol is a stable industry. He doesn't want to disturb that stability.
As for this realm, the more chaotic it is, the more he can gain from here.
While Sam is enjoying his new money and also the possibility of his friends changing their minds, there are some big-shots in the town, the city, and the outskirts of the capital city having various meetings related to them.
In the town administration office. The business administration officer, who is of equal position as Raunak's before his promotion is gathering all the officials and attendants under him along with the official in charge of the town guard to a meeting.
"Today, we are here to talk about the brewery. I don't know why they opened the brewery here. It has been almost a month since they did that and we are having a load of taxes.
The rest of the towns that had bars opened also have a raise in their taxes, but that is still less than the tax the factory has paid this month. In fact, it is far less. Both of them are not really comparable. The tax that came in is almost half of the town's tax as a whole.
So, we have to make sure that we provide him with enough resources and facilities so that he wouldn't leave our town.
If we accommodate him well enough, not only will our town develop, we will also have promotions rolling in with the tax targets we fulfill.
The main problem they are facing is the people causing trouble. So, I am asking the town guard to provide some special service. In exchange to which I am going to divert some of the tax amounts to your department and petition to increase your salaries and privileges."
While the town is trying their best to make Sam stay, the exact opposite thing is happening in the administration office of the Capital.
The main business administration office who is in charge of the city finance is talking with his subordinates. He is also the supervisor of joint town administrators like Raunak. But Raunak and others of similar positions are not this person's direct subordinates and he will not be getting any credit for the taxes Raunak and his peers make.
He is extremely gloomy as he looked at the subordinates who deal with most work in the city.
"Why did I not know anything about this Sam? He opened such a brewery and that town's tax almost reached half the city's tax. Do you know how much improvement it is? Do you know how much of our target we can decrease?
Now that Raunak who just entered the city has already cleared one-fifth of his target just from this one brewery and the excess business the wine selling is making is an added bonus.
And that is still when the brewery is not exporting to the towns other than those five towns. But this next month, there will be people from different towns asking for it and the brewery's profits will increase, which in turn increases the tax.
At this rate, Raunak will reach his target in five more months. Why did such an opportunity slip right past us?"
He is growing incredibly agitated as he spoke.
One person raised his hand and answered.
"Sir, the two factions are inquiring about them a lot and from what we know, Raunak and him are already acquaintances in the cane town. In fact, Raunak is the one that brought him here and made arrangements to the business establishment in exchange to an excess five percent tax payment.
Which makes it easier for Raunak to get more tax. It seems like he had found a real business genius and invested time in him to get what he is. There is a rumor in the faction circle that he is planning something by the end of the city elections.
The faction members are really tight-lipped."
"I don't what you guys do. I want to learn what that big move is, and think of a way to make use of it to finish our own targets."
An even gloomier meeting is happening in the brewery.
The manager of the brewery. The Elven lady is standing with her hands crossed as she looked down on the employees that sat down at the conference table.
"Who thought that it is a good idea to send men to harass the bars and the brewery? And you even sent the men under our faction. Now the families they belonged to are grinding their teeth at us. For not only losing business in the five towns that have fruit orchards but also losing men to the prisons.
Do you know how much it would cost us to bail us out? That too we have to find a way to make the other party give up the charges.
There are rumors flying around that we are doing this shit and there is also another rumor that the local fruit farmers are rethinking about the next harvest.
From what I heard in the message I received this morning. That brewery released a batch of new wine. There are many different varieties and they are made of local produce. They are currently limited edition and extremely expensive. But they are still favorites of the people in those five towns.
People are already requesting farmers to get in touch with this new brewery and inquiring about the cost of the fruit produce. They are trying to switch the sides.
Why do you think we had to refrain from doing anything shady? He agreed to auction the brewery and the recipes off by the end of the elections in the city. If we pressure him, he will sell it off to faction 1 and our whole faction will lose the edge of this liquor business.
So, make sure that you guys don't do anything shady."
"Madam then doesn't that mean we can relax about the situation and let him have his business. We can just outbid him."
"Like hell, you can do that." She almost cursed him out loud. She controlled the urge and spoke to him normally.
"You cannot do that. If he grew too much, he would have more leverage. He will increase the price by too much and we wouldn't be able to reduce the price if he is too big. So, we have to try all the ways we can to undermine the worth of that company all the while keeping those methods clean."
