Reborn as the Genius Son of the Richest Family

Michael thought that it would be a good idea to ask Chef Gustaeu what he knew about these restaurants in the Upperwood District. He made ChatJK4 take a mental note of it.

"And last but not least, this corner of the district is controlled by none other than Quench company and led by one of the Legacies!"

Michael remembered that Bobby owned the Quench company, which was a subcompany of the Hephaestus conglomerate. They were one of Michael’s goals for obtaining a permit. He wanted to know how to apply Soo to his Mithril Artifact.

It was good to know they were so close to him.

"This part of the Quench company is managed by one of Bobby’s officers, one of his generals named Dicky. They specialize in creating everyday metal objects for furniture. Their quality of work is said to be very close to Dwarven quality, if you can believe that."

"I can’t believe that," Michael muttered to himself.

"Anyway, those are the four companies that are going to be the major frontrunners for the Upperwood District Festival.

But we’re not competing against them. They’re in a league of their own. We’re competing against the other smaller local companies scattered about. They’re just like us, but bigger and better.

Now technically in this festival, they aren’t competing against us. They’re competing against themselves. We’re basically just the ants that live off of their crumbs.

Or to be more accurate, the big four companies eat to their heart’s content. Then, the smaller local companies eat the crumbs off their plate. And then, we are the ones that eat the crumbs off of their crumbs.

Hopefully, we get just enough to get by and pass the permit test."
