Bran didn't do anything to Sam. What a joke, if he really attacked Sam right in front of the imperial palace, he would be dead before Sam could die.

As for the matter of Sam kicking his son unconscious, that is another issue, it is his son who made the first move and both of them are equals, Sam only did it in self-defense.

He ordered his attendants who are waiting at the Palace gates to throw his son into the carriage before boarding it.

They left the place and went back to their family grounds. On their way back, Gnyan regained his consciousness, but he didn't even dare to speak when he saw his father's gloomy expression.

After returning to their family, Bran sat Gnyan down and asked.

"What did you do to him?"

"I didn't …"

"Do you think I am stupid? A man who can play you like a fool wouldn't want to deal with you in the first place, you will not be in his circle so why would he bother making enemies with you. Tell me."

Seeing that his father wouldn't listen to his bullshit, Gnyan hardened his heart and said everything. When Bran heard about him using Luna to do his bidding, he couldn't help but slap him straight on his face.

*PAK*

At least he controlled his power and didn't do too much damage, all Gnyan lost are half of his teeth.

"You sick bastard. How dare you have designs on princess? Even if you try something, you have to be serious about it. How dare you play around with here like you did with others? Do you think if the problem gets serious, it will be resolved with just some money and gifts? Emperor will skin us alive."

He took out some wine and drank it, he didn't use his spiritual energy to go sober immediately and just let the wine take over his body, before calming down.

"From now on, you are in charge of rearing the Zebras for our troops. You will feed them, you with clean them and you will look after them day and night. Don't even think about taking up the jobs."

Just like that, Gnyan who is the biggest prospect of the family to become the next family head lost all his advantages and went to become a stable boy for the rest of his life.

All he did was to attack a commoner using princess' hands and didn't reveal anything related to him in any phase.

But because of that one mistake, his family lost more than four billion and half of it are the second most profitable businesses of the family. He felt like killing himself.

Meanwhile, Sam doesn't know the details of the doom Gnyan suffered. He was on his way back to the Mirage city.

At this moment, two projects are going on the Mirage city and one of them is the project they took up at the beach area and the second one is the restructuring of the two factories. First thing is eliminate every single of the employees that are directly related to the Golden Blaze family.

He said Rana to fire them without any hesitation. He didn't care if they will feel down or their families might suffer. It is their problem. He cannot cater to everyone's needs. His own will always take priority. After firing them, almost ninety percent of the staff is gone. Now, he has to recruit new staff.

Thankfully, Rana did a good job at recruiting the talents that are rotting in the streets and filled one third of the previous staff.

Currently, there are no business orders to them. The previous deals are all cut off when the news of the spoiled two batches of products came to light.

And provided that the factories changed hands and new bosses came, no one would be giving them priority over the old one. At this moment, the small forges all got some great business because of that. Both weapons and the ship building.

But Sam didn't care about that. He has no plans on going to large scale manufacturing of weapons. Many can do that. He already have a factory in his home planet, what is the use of another factory like that? He could earn money, but that is it.

He looked at his new staff and said.

"I am the owner of the new factory and the boss of you lot. Rana is my business partner and he will be in charge here most of the time. You will mostly get orders from him. At least when I am not here."

Sam looked at more than hundred employees and said.

"Since the factory is a new one, I must tell you something. There are going to be a lot of changes, are there any of you who only wants to participate in the weapon making. It doesn't matter if you are skilled, if all you want is weapon making come forward."

Twenty people came forward.

"For you guys, there will be a weapon forging section in the previous weapon factory. You guys wouldn't me mass producing scrap in the name of weapons, instead you will be focusing on producing master pieces, the best you could produce.

We won't take batch orders and mass orders. We will only receive custom orders and when there are no custom orders, all you have to do is make the weapons of your own liking.

Some of you are extremely skilled and some of you are not so much. I don't know why most of you are here despite your skill, you might have had a better future at the noble families and such, even the artisan association might welcome.

There might be many factors like your race, nationality, birth or your past. But here you will have a new lease of life.

I will provide some learning opportunities, if you are interested you can learn. If one day you become too skilled that you are too big for this place, I will give you a chance to open your own workshop in any city of this nation along with the partnership with the organization.

There is a need for some renovations in the factory, so I ask you to take leave for the next fifteen days. You will receive wages accordingly for these fifteen days."

With that the twenty of them left with excitement for their futures after taking the payment from Rana.

Then Sam continued on giving instructions to various groups of people. Some of them are the ship building batch, some of them are only skilled in making some parts of ship like a factory worker and some of them will just work with anything related to metal.

By the end there is no one in the factory except for Sam and Rana.

"What are we going to do if we are not manufacturing the weapons?"

"We are going to modernize the ship building. We are going to set the standards for the future of the ship building. So, why should we bother with following the current industry, we might get delayed in earning money, but we will definitely get the largest market there ever was. You would know soon.

Don't come to the factory for the next fifteen days and leave me alone.

Unless it is some serious issue like death of someone don't come and bother me. Take the four orphans with you and show them ropes in the grenade factory.

Test the four of them and make one of them your substitute with a good salary. Don't be stingy, someone who can manage the factory all by himself can work greatly.

As for the remaining three, bring them back after fifteen days we will see what they are skilled in and place them in appropriate positions. Take these and given them their rewards."

With that he passed three rings with a lot of spirit stones in them to reward the four orphans.

Rana left to complete his tasks.

Sam went to the beach area took look at the current process of the construction.

The construction this time is a lot more different than normal, first thing is he is not using bricks or stone for the construction. He is using the crystal bamboo.

After looking at the beach, he got some ideas and created some experiments with the crystal bamboo. This is the only thing that can be easily mutated to one's needs and it will not be rotten easily.

At this moment, many wood element users are working with the long crystal bamboo. The crystal bamboos have light blue colored hue indicating its mutation with the water element and inside the translucent bamboo sections, there is a light blue colored liquid.

This liquid is the result of some herb solution. He discovered this a long time ago for a long preservation of wine in the bamboo jars. Then only he realized that the crystal bamboos cannot be destroyed once they mutated as long as they are supplied with the required spiritual energy. So, he is now building this blue colored bamboo cottages. Translucent like glass and water. The true beauty of this will only be revealed after the full construction.

After checking that, he went back to the factory to make further preparations.
