Roger smiled as he had enslaved all the crops in his land. They were growing faster as he had fed them with more than enough aura. He smiled as all of them were filled with excess aura and intent such that they created 10 times the product. So the land that could provide a harvest of 30 tons of corn, would not get him about 300 tons of corn. So he would get about 6 million by selling it. So he who had spent about 200,000 in cultivating them will make a big profit.
But this was not what he wanted to do to make some good amount of money. This 4 million was enough to let him get buy 100 gm of gold and reach level 2 gold intent. The higher the level of intent, the higher the level of nature of his intent and body enhancing features were..
But he still needed to have better methods to get more gold. Searching the sea-beds was one good option as he could live without eating food or breathing and could even survive in areas with radiation.
But this was not a good choice. It would be better if he went to mind gold as he who could control gold could directly extract gold from ores.
He sighed thinking about his future. His grandmother came over to him and said, "I have kept 4 gold bars hidden away. Use this to enhance your intent."
Roger nodded and put the gold bars weighing 1 kg each allowed him to let his gold intent reach level 3. He found the shade of his hair becoming stronger and the quality of his body and aura had increased. His life-force had also increased by 3 times and his life-force had reached 9000 years now.
She asked with great expectation, "What level of intent have you reached?"
Roger smiled and nodded. She smiled and said, "You should impart intent onto my body. One can know the difference between 200 years of lifespan and 9000 years of lifespan. Your lifespan will only grow stronger and I want to be stronger too as with intent, I can be much stronger. I surely want to be imparted with intent. Do not back out then."
He nodded. It was up to her. If she wanted to live that long and wanted strength, let her. Anyway, she cannot betray him and as long as he gives orders related to memory, behaviour or emotion, she will still remain her.
He asked, "Did you take the leave?"
She nodded and said, "Yes. I have also changed the location of your exam to Solaris city. We can leave here early." She looked at the crops and asked, "Why enslave them?"
He smiled and said, "I fed them with excess aura and commanded them to produce more food. The harvest is 10 times than normal. We can get about 3.8 million if we sell it. How much do you have in your account? I need more gold. "
She sighed and said, "The bank account has about 400 million rubbles. Even if we get it all out, we can only get about 40 gold bars. We can indeed take out 60 million rubbles to take out 6 gold bars, the rest can be used to start the business you want to do. For the next level, we need to get about 100 gold bars which needs a billion rubbles. It will take a some time to make some money."
He nodded. He kept thinking about what to do. He would need to spent about 200,000 rubbles to buy an acre of land. If he just buys the normal type of saplings and planted it without using fertilizers, he would still need to buy insecticides and pesticides. Even then, he might not get 1 tons of harvest that could only be sold at 20,000 at the wholesaler market. If he used fertilizer, he might get about 2 or 3 tons of harvest. This can only be harvested once a year. If he uses crop rotation, he can get about 2 crop rotations per year.
But when he uses the intent to enslave the crops, he can get about 30 times the harvest as he had level 3 intent now and even the growth speed would be about 3 faster. So he can get about 90 tons of harvest per harvest which can get him about 1.8 million rubbles per harvest for an acre of land.
So unlike other normal farmers who will have to work hard for 15 years and good harvest due to good climate just to get back the investment even after using fertilizers even after taking care of food and clothes not counting the money needed to make the house, his intent would ensure that he can make back the money he invested to buy the land and seedlings and the money to buy 8 times more land per harvest. He knew that he could keep expanding in this manner and as the higher intent level, the more money he could make. So he knew that he could make about 12 harvests per year as he had level 3 intent, 21 million per year for an acre of land as his intent slaves could grow up all the time in all seasons even without sunlight or correct environment as the intent and energy strengthened it.
So farming was a good business for him as he could make enough money. The food wil be of the best quality as his intent would make the best product. For now, he had no other idea to make some money.
He could make buy 80 acres of land within a month as he could get a full harvest in one month. Even if he cannot 80 acres of land, even the costliest land was only about 500,000 in villages. So as the cheapest land was only about 100,000 rubbles per acre and if it cost him about 300,000 rubbles per acre of land, he can buy about 6 times the land after a harvest of land from an acre of land.
So even in such an average case, he could get an extra 60 acres of land after one month getting about 70 acres of land, have about 4200 acres of land after two months from now, have about 252,000 acres of land after three months from now on, 15.12 million acres of land after four months from now on, 907.2 million acres of land after five months from now on. This land area was more than the total amount of arable land in Circe which was only about 400 million acres of land.
But he knew that he could not get that much land as the nation of Circe would not allow him to hold that much amount of land. Even if he held 100 million acres of land, he could make about 180 trillion per harvest and 2.16 quadrillion per year as pure profit. This meant that he would get about 30.8 trillion drachma per year. Even the GDP of the Circe nation was only about 4 trillion drachma and the GDP of the strongest nation Athens was about 28 trillion drachma.
He kept breathing hard thinking about the possibility of money he could make. He knew that he was strong enough to face and destroy any nation as he was all alone. Even if he was not strong enough, he could enslave one person and he let that person enslave another and keep chain enslaving until the whole world was enslaved by him. He smiled knowing that he could be strong enough in all manners whether he wanted to enslave the world, conquer the world by pure power or become the richest man.
He knew that his intent was strong. But he had no other idea to make that much money. Even if he could tax about 1 quadrillion rubbles into gold, That should be enough to let his intent reach level 10. but he doubted if he could simply cash out such money as gold. But level 10 was a differenent level. By then he would have ten aura rings and with level 10 intent, he was sure to even search larger areas in seabeds or asteroids in space as his intent strengthened more gold he had or money he had.
He did not speak out his idea as he knew that money was nothing more than a reference used by rulers. As for why gold was used, it was due to inertia of society that they never planned to give that value to any other object or material. But gold is not so valuable as inertia wants us to believe as we can see during famines or hazards.
So he knew that there was a limit to how much gold he could have in this world.
So he spoke out his idea with his grandmother and she nodded and planned to do so. She also said that she will take care of this business once he imparts intent onto her. She also suggested more ideas to make money such as building an entertainment company and enslaving many men and women who were willing to sign up with him. She planned to choose newcomers as they would not have no exposure and when intent changes their body and makes them more refined and prettier than what eyes of a human with limit strength can see, as aura is beyond the limit of humanity and intent is beyond the limit of aura in terms of quality.
Any person with intent would be approached by all life as they prefer higher level of life. So he could make easy money as they would all be loyal to him.
He was also told to enslave animals to make them act. This was another industry that would allow him to make money. He was also told to enslave cows, sheeps and other animals such as pigs so that he could speed up their growth and their meat would taste good enough. He also knew that as they would live 30 times longer as he had level 3 intent, they would produce milk for that long.
As for what would happen if people had no money to buy it as his industry would only need a few number of people to take care off, he would pay money to let them mine for a lot of gold.
He sighed as he found that in all manner, his final goal would be to take over the world, use money, pure power or enslavement to control the world. So sooner or later, he will surely become the king of the world or if there is another intent lord in which case he will be either one of the lord or shall be the one among the kings ruling the world. As for if aura lords were present, he shook his head as he knew that they would surely die under his attack.
But he still had no plan to take over the world through enslavement or pure force. He shall only be a really rich man. As for enslavement, he shall only enslave his subordinates for safety. He always wanted to be ready if another intent lord was born as intent only needed a strong will and humans always had a strong will.
So he just needed to ensure that he is not a villain and is nothing more than a lord. So he planned to make a lot of money. He discussed with his grandmother and both of them decided on it. He decided to become a really rich and strong person.
