Release That Succubus-Chapter 411 You can’t say that

"They are keeping Christina hostage." He found himself blurting out.

He watched as her body froze as her eyes widened and she opened and closed her mouth like a fish. "what?" She found herself asking him eventually.

"They are keeping her captive and I guess you understand now why I am not willing to make peace with Candice. I can't do that especially not after everything that she has done." He said to her firmly.

"Well that changed everything." She said to him in a mutter under her breath.

He let out a sigh from his lips as he ran a hand through his hair before nodding his head at her. "now you see why I can't fold to her will and I have to do what is wright." He said to her firmly.

She hummed as she nodded her head at him in response. "But that isn't how you go about it. If you really want to take her down then you have to go through the people. The civilians that is." She said to him.

He thought over her words for a moment and he knew that she did have a point. The royal family held the account of the people into high account and if the people were to turn their attention away from them that would cause the royal family a lot of trouble.

They feared the thought of a coup or a revolt and so they always wanted to ensure that they had the people's favor.

Even though Candice was very powerful and she had most of the people in her control and under her thumb she didn't have control over the civilians. They had minds of their own and if they were to decide that they didn't want her in power anymore that would cause her a lot of trouble.

It was the last thing that she wanted and whatever the people decided then that was going to be done.

And at that thought Zach couldn't help but smirk. He knew that was the way that he was going to defeat her. He knew that he would have to use her weakness against her.

That was the reason why Zach would never fail because he had the one thing that he knew would be enough to take Candice down completely.

"Thank you for your insight." He said to carol as a smirk made its way onto his face. he had to admit that her words did hold light in his mind and it helped him to see things more clearly.

Carol on the other hand was curious. "what do you plan on doing?" she asked him cautiously. He smirked as he turned away from her.

"It doesn't matter. But you should know that I won't let anything happen to the Smith's." he said to her firmly.

Zach was intent on keeping to his word. He was going to make sure that nothing happened to the Smiths and that their business was one that would continue to prosper for a long time coming.

He oversaw the recruitment of new workers by the Smiths and he made sure to screen all of them thoroughly before he employed them.

As the Smiths continued to follow Zach's plan they began to see some drastic changes on their business. It seemed as though almost overnight their business had managed to skyrocket.

Their sales were going up rapidly and any of the original hesitance that they had seemed to almost dissipate entirely.

Zach couldn't help but feel thrilled by the fact that things were working out the way that things were working out the way that he had planned.

And despite what Candice had intended for them the Smiths weren't going down and he was certain that he wouldn't allow it to happen that way.

He knew that she thought buy her making the smaller workshops lower their prices it would mean that people wouldn't want to buy from the Smiths anymore.

She also most likely assumed that he wouldn't consider lowering his own prices and even if he did that the prices wouldn't be as low as her own.

Zach knew that was something that would be slightly tougher for him to accomplish however he was determined to prove to her that she wasn't going to win against him.

He looked over the books as he tried to find out a way for him to get around it and with him being able to move some variable s and crunch some numbers he was able to lower his prices as well.

He was able to drop them so low that they were even lower than her own.

This meant that their original customers, the ones that had been interested in his product before and had been known to be loyal to him had their gazes turned back towards him.

In the end the thing that the citizens cared about the most was about getting the goods at a lower price.

The low level consumers of Byzantium weren't interested about the quality but what they cared about the most was the price of the commodity.

The only thing that mattered to them the most was that they were able to get their goods at a cheaper price as truly that was all that they found themselves asking for.

Seeing as Zach had been able to lower the prices further it meant that he had more customers coming back to him. It was as though they had come to realize that they could get it from him at a cheaper rate.

Soon enough most of the people were able to forget about the other workshops quickly as they turned their attention back towards Zach.

However the lower price in sugar had also sparked another public debate as people began to wonder where they were supposed to get their sugar from.

They knew that they wanted to get their sugar from the princess?but they also wanted to be able to get the sugar at an affordable price.

"Look I love the princess and I know that what she is doing she is doing it for our own good. After all she is the one who is ruling over us." One of the men said.

His friend who was another restaurant owner was silent beside him as they stood in the market place. "Look I am not trying to say that I have anything against the prices. In fact I like her just as much as the rest of us do. But you have to keep in mind that most of us here at the bottom we don't care about how fancy the product looks. All that matters is the cost. If I can get my sugar from elsewhere at a half of the cost them that is what I am going to do. It doesn't matter how much the princess cares about me." the man said to him as he offered him a shrug of his shoulders.

The man gasped loudly as her looked around for a moment as though trying to see if there was anyone that was watching them. "You can't say that." He said to him in a hissing tone.

He watched as he looked over at him with his brows furrowed and a quirked eyebrow. "And why is it that I can't do that." Her asked him.

"Because the princess is purl ruler and you know for a fact that she couldn't do anything without reason. She brought us this sugar before she cares about us. You know that everything she does is for the people. Don't you think that it is better for you to buy your sugar from someone that you can trust. Someone that you know wouldn't do anything to hurt you." He said to him.

However his friend couldn't help but shake his head as he let out a chuckle. "Look I don't care about all of that and as for the princess that isn't any of my concern. All I know is that the Smiths have a more affordable commodity and so that is where I am going to get my sugar from." He said to him.

"I mean the princess is down to earth and she cared about the environment and the people. You know that if she wanted to do something she would do it because she did truly care for us. How sure are you that the Smiths don't use something harmful to make theirs sugar that is why it had suddenly dropped in prices. Don't you think?that it is la little strange that their prices used to be so high and then now all of a sudden as though it was a switch that had been flickered their prices have suddenly dropped outstandingly low." He said to him as he quirked an eyebrow.

"Well I guess then we are just going to have to test it out in order to find out." The friend said as he took one of the bags of sugar that was labelled 'Smith' into his hold.

He knew that his friend did have some good points but whether the sugar had been tampered with or not he didn't particularly care about any of that. He just cared about the sugar being able to do what he needed it to do.

"But what about your restaurant?" The other patron said.

He watched as his friend turned to look at him with both curiosity and confusion . "What about my restaurant?" he asked him.

"Don't you care about the quality of your food? Don't you think that your customers are going to notice if your food prices remain the same but the quality and the taste changes?" He said to him.
