Capítulo 57: Changes for Patwardhans

It was a fine morning at the Patwardhan Mansion, the air filled with the aroma of firewood and spices mingling with the fresh scent of morning dew. The mansion, once gloomy and derelict, had undergone a dramatic transformation.

Five months earlier, the Patwardhans had pledged their support to the Prince, a decision that had proven highly beneficial. The arrival of Mithun and Karna marked a turning point for the Patwardhans.

Mithun had been tasked with harnessing the Patwardhans' influence to generate wealth for the Prince. He seized the opportunity to buy surplus goods from local traders at low prices, capitalizing on the instability. These goods were then sold at a considerable profit to European merchants. This lucrative trade not only generated substantial income but also reignited the Patwardhans' finances.
