“Procure? We believed you would give us your contacts. But, since I already expected you to ask us that we thought of asking the Field Marshal for help. After all, she is a part of us now and she knows the Way Beyond better than anyone of us. I am sure during her posting their she had made some valuable connects that we can use,” Park answered to Wyatt with brief details.
“You guys try that and inform how that works out for you,” Wyatt green light Park and Susan’s plan to recruit the Field Marshal’s help in procuring the specter grass blades. “Wait, that’s it. Aren’t you going to gives more contacts that can help use procure specter grass blades from other fronts,” Park wanted Wyatt to give them his other contacts so she could procure specter grass blade not just from the Way beyond that was under the Southern Regions control but from the other four regions too. “Park, slow down. I know that margin of profits on exporting the specter grass blades to inter-realm city is huge but once you introduce too much of it in the market, its value will take a hit for a period. Besides, amount of specter grass blade Southern Region can supply should last you long. Not to mention this is your first time, let it be a test run instead of trying to make it the windfall. Understood?” Wyatt understood the girls enthusiasm especially considering the profits to be made on this trade were astronomical but he wanted them to keep the market in their mind and not just the profits. “Understood,” Park woke up from her excitement listening to the points made by Wyatt. Its just that they found a goldmine and she cannot help but get excited over it. “Um, Wyatt,” Susan raised hand waiting for turn, its seems that Park was the dominating one among the two. Wyatt found Susan’s action funny and cute as he asked, “Yes, Susan, what is it?” “I looked into why the specter grass blades are valuable in the inter-realm network and learned that it an be used to create items to deal with specter or wraith type monsters. Also, some dark races that can be considered to be part specter use these grass blades in their day to day training. I was wondering if we could create these items in Card world. After all, the dungeons with specter or wraith type monsters are considered to be among one of the highest mortality rate dungeons in the world,” Susan proposed.
Unlike Park she was not interested in make profits by trading specter grass blades but she planned to learn the uses of specter grass blades from the dark realm and introduce them into the Card world. Obviously, make some profits by being the pioneer of specter grass blade’s uses. “Susan, your intentions are good and there is potential to make profits in a long run but it will never be as huge as the profits we stand to make in through trade. All I am trying to say that we should not debate to trade specter grass blade or to do what you proposed when we can do both. We can trade the specter grass blades with the inter-realm network and introduce the specter grass blade’s use in the card world simultaneously. This way we can make huge momentary profits through trade and ensure a continued profits by being pioneers of specter grass blade’s uses in the Card world. What do you think, Wyatt?” Park not only agreed with Susan but proposed they should both the proposals ensuring momentary and long term gains.
“Good thinking you two. But, do you know why the Card world never figured out that specter grass blades can be used to create items to help deal with specter or wraith type monsters?” Wyatt did reply to Park because those two were not seeing the problem in what Susan proposed. “We aren’t advanced enough?” “I don’t know.” The girls gave their opinions only to see Wyatt shake his head as he answer his own question, “That’s because there aren’t many dungeons containing wraith or specter type monsters. The high mortality rate in those dungeon is most because of the adventurers lack of experience fighting against wraith or specter type monsters. Therefore, the card world never felt the need to expanded and develop their knowledge in that field. This also means their no market for specter grass blade products in the Card world, trying to be its pioneers will bring us nothing but a little fame, got it?” “I am sorry, I wasn’t thorough on my research,” Susan apologized realizing the things she overlooked before making her proposal. “Woah, this is trickier than I thought,” Having calmed down from her initial excitement Park began to see the pot holes in her plan to a windfall and felt a chill on her back thinking that she believed this was a sure thing. “This is first time trying something like this just take it slow. You guys are bound to make mistakes but what matters is that you learn from them,” Wyatt advised the girls and then, seeing the troubled expression Susan’s face he said, “Don’t worry I plan to publish the uses of specter grass blades ones I take charge of the southern academic region. This way any one who needs the items naked by specter grass blades can hire someone to make them for them.” “Aren’t you going to copyright those recipes?” Susan asked in surprise as it was not like Wyatt to work for free. “Of course I am,” Wyatt said. The knowledge on specter grass blades available in the inter-realm network and infinity library was very raw and in another language. Wyatt would not only be translating them but also simplifying and modifying them such that even regular card apprentices could understand and successfully use them. So, it was only fair he gets paid for his troubles.
