Chapter 145: How To Make More Money??
Raiden looked at the new construction crew working around the clock using the combined powers of Terra Beasts and humans to build up his house wall and again felt a pinch in his bank account.
" Thank you for coming on such short notice. You have been a great lifesaver, Maple. I really don’t know how to thank you." Raiden once again extended his thanks to the woman standing beside him with a smile.
"No, not at all, Raiden. Instead, I really want to thank you. It was all thanks to you that Miss Aria once again visited Old Man Tobias, allowing him to reunite with his granddaughter once again. That is a massive debt to the Stormwind family that cannot be paid simply. He told me that you are our number one priority customer in the city now, and we should do everything we can to assist you in any way possible. Personally, I have never seen that old man act so happy in the last few years."
Maple replied with a sense of wonder and happiness in her voice. She had no idea how this young man convinced the Young Head of the family to come back and meet the old man, but regardless, he did something no one else in the family was able to do. Therefore, he had become one of their biggest benefactors.
"No, no, no. I didn’t really do anything. Aria wanted to meet her grandfather herself. That’s why she went. All I did was pass on the message to her. I’m sure anyone else could have done it." Raiden waved his hand modestly.
"Regardless of the reason, you are one of the most premium customers we have right now. We are upgrading your membership from Platinum to Diamond. The Old Man would personally like to give you the Mythical level membership, but the old rules in the family suggest that you need to be at least a Platinum Tier Battle Master to get it. This is the most he could do without going against the whole family. As soon as you reach Platinum, you will be instantly upgraded to Mythical tier membership." Maple explained from the side.
"There was no need for it, really...By the way, just out of curiosity, what is this Diamond Tier membership different from the Platinum Tier?" Raiden feigned humbleness before he asked the follow-up question with shining eyes.
He still remembered the benefits of Platinum Tier Membership. 30% off on all products plus VIP treatment and a million in interest-free, collateral-free loan. How could he not love it? This Diamond Tier must be even more special.
Maple, who knew exactly what kind of character Raiden held, had an amused smile on her face as she spoke.
"All our Diamond Tier Memberships come with a 50% discount on everything, and you can take an interest-free instant loan up to 30 Million Credits anytime you want. In addition to that, if you ever want to buy something from us, you will be our Tier 2 priority customer."
Raiden’s eyes shone brighter and brighter the more he heard, and his breathing grew somewhat ragged at the mention of a 30 Million interest-free loan. But soon he controlled his facial expression, trying to act normal.
"Ahem, since that Old Man Tobias went out of his way to give me this membership, I won’t refuse his goodwill. Otherwise, it will be an insult to him. By the way, what does a Tier 2 priority customer mean?" Raiden asked, trying to appear calm.
{Shameless Exp. Increased +4!!}
"It means if you ever want to buy something from us, every single branch of the Stormwind Family Merchant Group will try to find it as quickly as they can and get it delivered to you ASAP. By that, I mean all the branches in the world, not just in our state." Maple replied calmly.
In fact, this was the biggest benefit of a Diamond Tier Membership: mobilising the entire Stormwind merchant group to find something. The discount and the money didn’t matter at Diamond Tier levels. Their normal customers of the Diamond Tier, in fact, spent much more than 30 Million just in feeding their Terra Beasts per month.
This benefit was something she added herself, knowing the current poor condition of Raiden’s finances. This much money was nothing to her but everything to Raiden.
As they say, it’s better to send charcoal in the snow than send it in the summer. Helping others when they need it the most is the only favour they will remember when it counted. So she took the liberty of giving him the money. That was the cost of establishing a relationship with a future powerhouse; it was too cheap in her opinion.
Raiden hissed after hearing the benefits. It was much more extravagant than he hoped. Hell, it felt like this was too big of a favour done to him, and it would be hard to pay it back in the future.
He even considered rejecting it, but then considered the current condition of his finances before reluctantly accepting it. Currently, he needed all the money he could get.
Raiden spoke after thinking for a long time.
"Thank you, Miss Maple. I’ll accept it gracefully. I had a question for you, though."
"Sure, ask away. I’ll do my best to answer it."
"Do you know any way I can make some money fast?? Preferably something that I can do at the farm." Raiden asked the question in his heart.
"Oh, that is a very simple thing to do, Raiden. All you need to do is either sell the Berries or the Terra Cubes." Maple replied with a smile.
"Huh??"
"You have some berry trees, right? You can harvest them once a month and sell them for a good profit." Maple pointed to a group of twenty-something trees in the distance, which were growing very lush and brightly.
And by the looks of it, some of them were really high grade. She felt like Raiden was sitting on a pile of money and didn’t even utilise it at all.
"It’s that simple??"
"It’s that simple."
