The father and son duo was in silence as the car moves. It moves through the traffic slowly and gently. After sometimes, Nathan decided to break the silence.
"What are you doing, Zion? You have been acting strange lately and I do not blame you for perusing your dreams. Why don't you talk with us about the thing you are doing?"
"There is nothing much to talk about anything dad, I'm just starting my own enterprise and I will ask for your help once I had hit a wall." Zion shrugged and implied that he did not want to continue this conversation.
However, Nathan was not willing to drop the matter at hand and continued, "Don't evade Zion. Just spill it out what were you planning? Sooner or later you would have to let us know."
'That is the problem dad, I don't dare trust you would keep the sanest choice!' thought Zion. 'If I told you the things that are going to happen in a few months now, what would you do? Not to mention people will be after the source of the information. What would you tell them'?
Zion sighed and contemplated whether he should let his father in. He was confused and uncertain of the consequences it would bring to their life. After a long time, Zion decided to bury his secrets for the time being.
"Zion! You have been silent for a long time now. What do you have to say?" Nathan asked.
"Nothing. Dad, just help me out if I encountered the bureaucratic nonsense from any of the department. After all, the market is not purely economic and trade warfare. We need to watch out for other cities and their influence." Zion discussed with his father on the future of his company and the expansion he would like to implement.
"I want to know how much loan I could get from the banks and from the city. I know I can get a loan with nothing. That is why I would use technology and the stocks as the mortgage."
"I need at least ten billion loans for the enterprise, it wouldn't be needed now, but once the factory started its operation it will be a black hole consuming everything."
Zion explained seriously about his financial situation and economic needs he has. He asked his father to help him with the loans and authorization for the factory and other production facilities. He also convinced his father to facilitate a deal with the city to embrace his new solar tech, which provides more energy with less cost for the future.
"Zion, I can't still believe you could do these things. It is a lot of money and business interest, your mother should have already known everything and don't let her find these things from me." Nathan let Zion know that he shouldn't hide things from the family and also let him know that his siblings are also successful in their endeavor.
"You should know that age is a big factor and not many people like to be under young individuals. It takes time to convince others that they could trust you. I guess you can understand what I'm trying to express, now don't you?"
"Yes father I know, I will talk with her."
The car stopped and Nathan asked Zion to leave. He needed to go to his office and he let Zion know that he would be looking after him.
Zion stood on the sidewalk and decided to meet his mother at last. He called a taxi and asked to drop him near 'Hale Logistics'. Even though he was the son of Leslie Hale the chairperson of Hale Logistics, they never recognized him. He entered the company premises with the pass he had and walked towards his mother's office.
Knock…knock….
"Hello…mum!" Zion greeted his mother with a warm smile. Leslie was still viewing the files on the table as she saw her son coming through the door with a smile on his face. She knew that he came here to ask for something.
"You are a rare visitor indeed Zion. It should be the first time you have ever come here, isn't it. You weren't home last night young man and I'm not going to pry into your nightlife as long as you don't cross the line."
"What intrigued me is that you are starting a company with a capital of a billion credits. I'm just curious about the source of wealth."
"I'm here to talk about that situation mother, I let Blake and Greely invest hundred million and rests of them are a loan, technology, you name it. I would like to start opening of the company this week with an expo. I will show you the products; we are currently making the prototypes of equipment we are introducing." Zion started to explain the products and it's innovative sides.
"So, you are saying that your drones can take a heavy load and transport it with literally no cost,"
Leslie asked her son seriously. Leslie was in deep thoughts; If this is true then, it will bring a revolution in the logistics sector. She was happy that it is her son, who brings this technology.
"Where did you get this kind of technology in the first place?" Leslie questioned her son.
"I had it for sometimes, I invented this with whole other some bunch of stuff. I have also decided to enter arm's industry. I had some talks with Marcus and he assured me he would be talking with his friends in the military and defense department to get me approval fast. It may take a few weeks."
"I want your help now; I want my products to get recognition. Even if we conducted, the ceremony for the starting of our company, if no one came that would be a disaster. I want you to spread the word and let all the big shots in the business to attend the celebration. You must also invite banks to be part of this occasion and let the expo a success."
Leslie was staring at Zion as he explained his needs, she sighed and thought, 'He is finally matured and making a decision on his own'. However, the scale of money involved let her feel afraid on the thoughts of his possible failure and consequence. She lets him know the aftermath of a possible failure and to take it in spirit.
"I will let the words spread, Prepare the invitation for this weekend and don't make me ruin my own name for you."
"Trust me, mother, I know what I'm doing and promise you that it won't be a waste of time." Zion left the office as he took his mobile phone to contact his shareholders for a meeting.
"We will be meeting at 'Flavours' in an hour. Be there on time, we have a lot to do.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
