Chapter 217: Profit!

Chapter 217 - Profit!

"Copyrights?"

Rean nodded.

"Copyrights work like this. They will still be the ones to produce and develop the Lightning Beads. However, we will be the ones selling them from now on. We will make a contract with them and the Zafa Bank as an intermediary so that they can't go back on their words."

Rean continued.

"Elder Droman doesn't think that we are the only ones that will need it, right? Their Lightning Beads are already registered in the Bureau Office. That means we can't create them ourselves even if we have the blueprints. Otherwise, we would just have a fight with the Zafa Bank."

Droman was still puzzled after listening to Rean's words.

"But why would you want to buy their... errrr... copyrights? Their Lightning Beads are not working correctly. What use will there be even if we get more of them?"

Rean shook his head in response, saying.

"That shouldn't be much of a problem. The fact is that given enough time, these beads can wipe out previous information, right?"

Droman nodded.

"Yes. However, the time it takes to do so is too long. A lot of information will arrive and be saved inside before it can be wiped o- Ah!"

Droman finally understood what Rean meant.

"I see... that really might just be feasible."

Rean couldn't help but smile after hearing those words.

"Seems like Elder Droman has found the crux of the issue."

Droman nodded once more.

"Yes. It was basically a coincidence that I remembered about these beads and tried to save the electrical information. Fortunately, it worked. However, the fact is that these beads were made for attacks, not for keeping... errr... data...? Anyway, the Lightning Sect has the blueprints of these little guys. As long as we work with them, we might be able to modify them for our use."

Rean nodded, satisfied.

"Exactly! To be honest, considering how long they have been making these beasts, I believe they are quite proficient in tinkering with it. There is a very high chance that they can be modified for our use. After all, we just need them to wipe out any residual information faster. I believe the reason they don't do it at the moment is propositional. After all, the more energy the beads can keep, or the less energy they allow it to escape, the faster they will charge. That is an excellent thing when you want to use them for protection."

"As long as we ask them to remove this property, everything will be wiped out straight away."

Droman couldn't help but feel excited.

"Yes! I can only change the formation to keep feeding spiritual energy to the bead until there is no need for them anymore. After that, the formation would stop doing that, and all the data inside the bead would be gone automatically. After all, there is no need for long term data saving. It's perfect!"

Rean also added.

"That's not all. This router formation that we are creating will definitely spread as the communication system grows more famous. Until now, people only know about the common communication formation that sends point to point messages. Once they find out about our improvements, they will all need the Router Formation. To make the Router Formation, these Lightning Beads will be necessary."

"As you can imagine, the more these Lightning Beads are needed, the more expensive they will become. Do you really want to wait until they notice the real value of these things before paying more?"

Droman shook his head.

"Of course not!"

Rean then continued.

"Correct! With the Copyrights, we will have an unlimited supply of them. After all, we will definitely prioritize our own sect's needs. However, that is not all. With the Copyrights, we can sell them to the other sects, countries, organizations, and other governing bodies that will need them in the future. As long as we don't surpass the value of the other materials you talked about, they will definitely buy the modified beads. This will bring a fortune!"

Droman nodded vigorously, becoming delighted at the idea.

"Yes! That's a great idea! I love this... copyright... thing. Come with me, we will go to the Sect Master straight away. Buying the Lightning Sect copyrights will be quite expensive, after all."

Rean didn't mind, and the two of them went straight up to Dalamu Mountain to talk with Mia. Obviously, Mia was surprised to hear such an idea and immediately approved it.

"Droman, you can leave the cable work to someone else. Take whatever you need and go directly to the Lightning Sect. However, before offering this... copyright... thing, make sure that the beads have been modified and that they work as you wish. If they work, pay whatever you need to convince their Sect to sign this contract with the Zafa Bank as the intermediary."

Droman then showed a playful smile.

"That won't be hard to do. It will take quite some time for the Imperial Family of our Sasamil Empire to allow the construction of the communication system in their area. However, as the Sect who created it, we can give them this right to start before everyone in their area. Even if we don't pay anything, I still believe they will accept this copyright contract. Of course, I'll need Sect Master's permission to do so."

Both Mia and Rean were surprised to hear that. Indeed! Didn't the other four sects and the royal family come to their Sect asking for the same thing? In the end, Mia made quite a deal with them for the rights to build the communication system ahead of time. There is no doubt that the Lightning Sect would be very interested in it. After all, their Lightning Beads are not that famous or take a big part in their annual revenue anyway.

"Permission granted! As soon as you are ready, you can leave straight away.

Droman nodded and left to prepare a few things. However, Mia asked Rean to stay behind to talk to him. Such a thing was becoming quite common already, so Droman wasn't even surprised anymore.

"Rean, this copyright idea of yours, was it you who thought up of it?"

Rean pondered a bit and then shook his head.

"Not really. I'm sure that some other organizations, sects, etc., already used it in the past. It's just that it is not anything famous. If you ponder about it carefully, you will see that it is a great deal."

Mia knew that it wasn't the whole truth. Rean was definitely hiding more things, just like Roan. However, she wanted them to grow loyal to the Sect, so she didn't insist on the question. Not to mention that what Rean and Roan did so far had been of great benefit to them. In the end, she simply nodded and changed the topic.

"This deal with the Lightning Sect will most likely turn into a huge profit for our Sect. That being said, is there anything you would like as a reward for it?"

Rean pondered a bit before saying.

"I will soon start to need higher rank Spirit Stones. However, the common stores can't acquire Spirit Stones above Rank Two. Would Sect Master be willing to exchange Rank Two Spirit Stones for Rank Three ones?"

Rean wasn't lying. He tried to ask the Jamaris Weapon Store to send him Rank Three Spirit Stones instead of Rank Two. However, they told him that Spirit Stones above Rank Two are monopolized by the sects and the Royal Family. It is too hard for them to acquire those Spirit Stones in the common market.

Mia then pondered a bit and said.

"Indeed. It is very hard to obtain them outside. Usually, the exchange rate would be ten Rank Two stones for a Rank Three one. However, the fact is that everyone wants Rank Three Spirit Stones and above. Because of that, the price in our country and the surrounding ones increased a lot. At the moment, the exchange rate is around fifteen Rank Two stone for one Rank Three stone. Are you okay with that?"

Mia lied as she said those words. In fact, the exchange rate was around twenty Rank Two Spirit Stones! However, she didn't want to ask for too much from Rean. After all, chances are that the Sect will get a lot of Spirit Stones in the future thanks to his copyright idea. Rean didn't know it yet, but Mia intended to give him a percentage of the earnings if the idea really worked out in the end.

Rean, of course, already knew the real exchange rate. It was evident that the Sect Master was giving him a great discount here.

"Great! I accept!"

Mia nodded before throwing him a token.

"Bring it to Elder Nalal in the Treasure. As long as you show it to him, he will make the exchange for you. I will send a message to him later telling him about the deal we agreed on just now."

Rean bowed and thanked Mia before leaving right after.

Right after, he sent a message to Roan through their Soul Connection.

"I can get Rank Three Spirit Stones now. Do you want to start using them? If we do, we probably will reach the peak of the Late Stage a lot faster."

Roan heard that and shook his head.

"No need. It's probably too much Spiritual Energy for our cultivation. Just try to save them for when we enter the Peak Stage. It's not like we are in a hurry anyway."

Rean nodded.

"Very well."

On that same day, Elder Droman departed to make one of the most profitable businesses the Sect had ever seen.
