Both Olivia and her husband were surprised at each other at the moment. She knew that these were good quality foods and probably had a decent amount of spiritual energy. But she did not realize that it had a high concentration of spiritual energy.

She had just put the food on the table and was still serving her children when her husband arrived. As for the children, neither of them had started to cultivate, so they only praised the food’s taste for their mother.

Olivia’s husband was surprised to learn that his wife had purchased high spiritual concentration foods for the same price as medium concentration foods sold in Old Stone.

He then looked at her and said. “Love, where did you buy this from?” He was curious since resources like these were, on average, five times more expensive than what they could afford.

“At the Nash family’s market, four blocks from here.” She said before shoving a spoonful of rice into her mouth.

She wanted to taste this rice of high spiritual concentration. That was the first time that she could do this in her 30 years of life!

“Wow! You weren’t lying!” She said excitedly. It was truly amazing, she hadn’t even eaten more than a few spoons, and her spiritual energy was already being stimulated!

Olivia’s husband then started eating too, when he said. “I want you to go back to that place and buy more of these foods. Buy as much as you can, considering the time these products take to spoil. I don’t want to miss this golden chance.”

…

While Olivia’s family happily consumed their meal of high spiritual concentration of energy, several other individuals who had purchased items from the Black Plain were already ecstatic about this event.

Some people even stopped their meals the moment they felt the spiritual concentration of the food, returning to the Nash family’s stores that were selling these items. That was a unique opportunity for them, so they couldn’t expect other people to take a seat on the subject.

And quickly, the six Nash family’s markets in Old Stone that had received the items from Minos were packed with people who had already purchased food and others who had heard the rumor from close friends and family.

“Boy, I want 6 kilos of rice, 3 kilos of apples…” A lady at the head of the line said to one of the clerks at this store she was in.

At this time, almost all the employees at this store were fulfilling orders for items coming from the Minos region. The place had been entirely packed by customers who did not want to miss this unique opportunity.

Hell, if a noble family found out about it, their members might as well buy all the stock at those stores at once!

“Girl, I want four bunches of bananas, 5 kilos of soy…”

“I want 3 kilos of grapes, 5 kilos of wheat, and…”

Several orders were being placed, while there were seven different queues at this store. All of them were here to buy the products coming from the Dry City. And in each line, there were at least 50 people nervous and afraid of having nothing left in their turn!

…

After the launch of Minos’ products in Old Stone, nine hours had passed when the last kilo of food had been sold in one of the Nash family’s stores.

That’s right, 200 tons of food had been completely depleted in just nine hours!

But that was not so strange.

After all, there were more than 6 million inhabitants in this city. With that, it was enough for about 6 thousand people to buy, on average, 33 kilos, and that whole food would be depleted.

That day, the rumor ran through the city, but not so fast that other people took advantage of this opportunity.

People like Olivia, who managed to go back and buy more, were in the minority. So, when the news had been widely spread, there was nothing left to buy!

…

At this moment, Elen and Elena were having dinner when the servant from before entered the dining room with a big smile on her face. “Ms. Elen, all the items from the Black Plain have already been sold out, and an amount of 2 million low-grade crystals have been collected!” She said exultantly.

No one in the Nash family in the past millennia had won so many crystals in such a short time. That would surely elevate Elen’s position within the family, which would also benefit this woman.

“Incredible! I didn’t think these foods from the Black Plain were so good!” Elena said in shock.

She had heard from Elen about what had happened in the Dry City, but she still had some disbelief in her heart. After all, she did not see or feel these changes herself…

“Hmm, I was already anticipating something like this. But I still thought it would take a day or two.” Elen said with a smile on her face.

According to the agreement she had made with Minos, she would retain 10% of the total collected in this first operation, as the Black Plain lacked ships to transport the items to Stone Island, which provided her with 200 thousand crystals!

That might seem like a minor deal for a 2 million business, but it was indeed a very high value!

Elen’s operating cost had been less than 30,000 crystals, which gave her an enormous profit in this operation.

Even her family only made a profit of about 15 million low-grade crystals a year! And it was a whole family, with thousands of people!

Because of this, Elen was pleased to have met Minos while she was passing through the Dry City. She had never thought that the opportunity of her life would arise in that place!

‘It is no wonder that people say that those who work hard end up finding some lucky opportunities!’ She thought to herself.

“Aunt Sally, bring bodyguard Eduard here. I want him to personally go to the Dry City to hand over Mr. Minos’ share of this business.” Elen said while looking at the woman who had brought the news.

In that first agreement, as the family did not authorize her to pay Minos in advance, she had agreed with him to make the payment after the sales were made. And, of course, Minos was not worried about being robbed since that would be much worse for Elen than for him.

…

At the same time, in the Nash family patriarch’s office, three men talked about different matters when a servant came into the room and whispered in the patriarch’s ear.

“What?” Marvin Nash almost jumped out of his chair when he heard what the servant had said.

Seeing the reaction of the family patriarch, the two men frowned. One of them was the current supreme elder of the Nash family and Elen’s father, Richard Nash, at level 57 at 634-years-old.

The other was one of the family’s elders, Sigmund Nash, who was 550-years-old, level 55.

The supreme elder then said with a severe look. “What happened, Marvin? Did the Allen family do anything against us?”

The Allen family was a power of Stone Island, a competitor of the Nash family.

“No, it was little Elen…” He said while letting out a breath.

Upon hearing this, the two men did not understand when Richard said concerned. “What did my daughter do to me? Did she offend any great power?”

The patriarch then smiled and said in disbelief. “She made a deal, which within just one day collected 2 million low-grade crystals!”

“How is this possible?” Even before Richard said something, Sigmund couldn’t hold his shock and asked in disbelief.

He couldn’t believe that a young woman like Elen had made such a business. Not even they were able to do so much in such a short time!

“How did little Elen do that?” The old supreme elder asked.

“I’m not sure, but I think it was…” Marvin then started talking about what he had heard from his subordinates about Elen’s recent activities.

He also remembered that his stupid son had offended some crucial ally of Elen a few weeks ago.

“I see. Well, I’m going to talk to my daughter and find out what’s going on, then I’ll give you feedback.” So, the old supreme elder spoke before leaving the patriarch’s office and heading towards his daughter’s residence.

…

At this moment, Eduard was in front of Elen, receiving the mission to take the crystals from Minos to the Black Plain.

“Then you must travel quickly to resolve this. But take someone with you. The Dry City may want to get some orders from our region.” Elen said to Eduard, who had already received a spatial ring with all the crystals from Minos.

After doing this, when Eduard had finally left this place, an old man entered through the front door of Elen’s residence.
