Chapter 4 - Shopping Spree

{Sir are you sure you want to buy it without even looking? the man ate the real estate company asked, surprised at the young man`s serious face when saying this. He then said in a blend voice: Alright, you just need to sign here, transfer the money, pay all the taxes involved, and further things that might happen once you are there. Do you want an insurance? That will cost extra. Josh just starred at the man, confused that buying an old factory would cost this much, when he hasn't even been there yet. Josh used about an hour signing the necessary papers, and when he left, the clock was about 9am. Josh was wondering what to when his stomach started to make sounds, so Josh looked around and found a kebab store, and when he went inside the store the fragrance of the spices hit him in the face. He went up to the counter and ordered a kebab and coke to go. while he waited, he surfed the web, looking after cheap school offers and different supplies, he thought might be necessary for the factory. He found a few after a while, which was close by, just as the kebab he ordered was finished.

Josh went to the closest hardware shop, where he bought metal, screws, nails, different electrical tools, heaters and a bio generator. Josh paid extra to have it delivered to his newly bought factory before he went to the bus stop and waited for the bus and felt the pain of a very light wallet. While he was waiting, he asked the system: "Why do I have to buy all of these things? I can understand the food and such, but why the nails etc?" The System: [just like a car need gas to move, I need something to upgrade it. For example, I can't make a vault-door without as much metal and space a real one would take. And you will have to learn much by yourself, I am not a system which helps with everything. I can memorise things, and I can upgrade them, but it is in the end you who moves and acts.]

Josh found all that the system explained reasonable and at a level where he could understand everything it said. Josh decided to not ask anymore and instead start planning what he should do later on, because he couldn't do everything within a day`s notice. Somethings would require time and resources. Josh decided to add a hunter's course and herbology to the tasks he needed to do later on, as both were quite useful, whether he was in the city, or in the woods. The bus finally came, and when he got on, he saw that there were no more seats, so he had to stand all the way to the area where the factory was. When he arrived at the closest bus stop, he saw that there were a few buildings in the area as a car trader, an auto shop and a gas station. He decided to ask one of the locals where he had to go to find the factory.

He decided to go to the gas station to ask. When he entered the gas station, he saw a beautiful clerk on the opposite of the counter with blue eyes, dark brown hair, skin as white as vanilla and a figure which was not exaggerated at the same time as it was not something to underestimate. He was stunned when he saw her, and just stood there, starring. She asked, nervously: {E..Excuse me sir, can I help you with something}? Josh snapped out of his daze and answered embarrassed: "Yeah, sorry, I was wondering if you knew where the old factory in the area was? You see, I'm the new owner".
