Chapter 113: "What?"
Meanwhile in the Kingdom of Alba.
Two months had passed since Audrey went to train and Alexander rarely left his house.
All the time he was seen cultivating or Drawing and doing calculations.
In the last few days, he had asked for a cellar to be built on his property and Anna at first did not want but after explaining what he was doing she easily accessed it, she did not know because she had blind faith in her son.
So regardless of the costs, he sent to build a warehouse as soon as possible.
As for Alexander, he went to the Royal Palace to talk to his grandparents.
Soon a boy of almost ten years old sat down in front of an elderly couple who were doubtful because their grandson was visiting them.
Seeing the silence Alexander began to speak: "Grandparents, I will be direct. I'm looking for an investment."
His grandfather folded his arms and saw Alexander with doubts was a good thing to give money to a ten-year-old boy?
But he still asked: "What do you want the money for?"
Alexander, seeing that his grandfather did not reject him, could finally give a sigh of relief. At this moment he only hated not growing faster, Before he wanted to wait until he was older to do something like this but due to the special condition of his body he could not afford to waste time.
One never knew when strength was needed.
Alexander in a firm tone said: "I want to open a chamber of commerce".
His grandparents were surprised and said, "Oh, why?"
Alexander did not go on to explain if not rather asked his grandfather a question: "Grandfather, what do you think of this region?"
Adam did not understand why his grandson had asked him such a question but he still answered: "I think it is a very good land".
Hearing that, Alexander shook his head and said, "What would you say if I told you that for some people this land is garbage that doesn't even deserve to enter their eyes?"
Alexander's words left them speechless and Beth couldn't help but ask, "Are there such people?"
Alexander nodded and saw his grandparents: "Grandparents, this is something that Shifu told me".
His grandparents listened to this mysterious teacher and paid close attention to his grandson's words.
"Grandparents have never left the region but let me tell you that this region is cataloged as a desolate land in the whole continent.
Adam couldn't help but frown and said, "Why desolate? Don't you see we have great harvests every year!"
Alexander shook his head and said: "They are not referring to that kind of desolation but rather to the lack of resources for growers. In these lands, the density of qi is very deficient so both herbs and other things necessary for cultivation rarely appear here.
Beth who was silent couldn't help but ask: "What you're trying to say is that the resources we consider valuable elsewhere on the continent are relatively much more common?"
Alexander nodded and said, "There are places that can even cultivate these resources en masse to sell them.
Beth covered her mouth with her hands and said, "Mass Cultivate?"
Alexander nodded but added: "But only low-end resources. It's not very different from wheat farming or the like.
His grandparents took a breath of cold air and one of them said, "What are your so-called low-range resources?"
"Resources that are for cultivators in the Elemental Realm for down, You must know that before there was a power called "Precious Hall", That power that power cultivated those resources for sale in this region.
So both Beth and Adam meditated on what their grandson said and found it feasible and Beth said, "But why do they do that?"
Alexander said: "The great powers in spite of having great profits also have great expenses, The answer is simple, Money".
Alexander saw his grandparents and said, "Do you know how much money these powers handle?"
Adam and Beth didn't know what their grandson was talking about but still shook their heads.
And Alexander smiled at them and said: "The great powers can win in a minute what you win in a year of fundraising if not more".
"Are you sure? How can that be possible?" Both exclaimed at the same time. Their collection was 150,000 gold coins a year and for someone to tell them that power can earn more than that in a minute, they obviously thought it was a joke.
Alexander asked them: "Do you know what spiritual stones are?"
"Spiritual stones? I've never heard of that." Adam looked curiously at his grandson.
Alexander said: "They are similar to pure Qi pills only that they form naturally on the continent's tectonic plate for thousands of years, they are stones that can help the cultivator Progress."
But then Beth said, "If they're like you describe them because I've never heard of them?"
Alexander smiled and said: "For two reasons, One this region does not have the density that for a mine of spiritual stones to form naturally and two spiritual stones are very difficult to move around the continent unless you have spacial storage having spiritual stones with you is almost like committing suicide."
"Why?"
"Spiritual stones change the flow of natural qi in the Atmosphere to which beasts are very sensitive and many beasts love to eat spiritual stones."
"But doesn't that mean mining is very dangerous too?"
"Yes, in the places where there are mines of spiritual stones has a density of qi greater than that of the surrounding area, so it is perfect to cultivate but also calls the attention of beasts to attack the mine so there must always be powerful people."
His grandfather then silently spoke again: "So if we bring a spiritual stone here that would make the density of Qi change?"
Alexander nodded and said: "Yes but it would have to be an eighth grade stone for it to be a significant change".
Adam was surprised and said, "There are grades, do you know what the differences are between grades?"
Alexander smiled and said, "There are Nine grades and with respect to the difference. An eighth grade stone equals ten thousand ninth grade stones!"
"What?"
