Chapter 680: Relief (First Update)
Sanatanu fell to his knees with a solemn expression and a resounding word: "You have never broken your vow, and no one can stop your eternal fulfillment, no matter whatγγγγγγγ You are the element of action, the truth itself, all the ingredients in creation. Treat others equally, and at any time, your words and teachings are useless. You are the source of all truth, and we bow down to you and ask us to bless us. β
Sanatanu clasped his hands together, stood up, and the priest dressed in yellow carefully held a glass of water and dripped a few drops on his face, and poured a little more into the palm of Sanatanu's hand.
I'm definitely going to have a stomach upset at night, and I don't know if the small vial of the medicine called gastrointestinal safety that Zack gave will work.
Shanatanu and the Brahmin priests thanked each other, and Dijang beside him said in a respectful tone for the first time: "Young Master Karim grew up in the United States, but he still maintains a firm faith, and Lord Warren must be very relieved when he knows about it." β
Shanatanu said with a serious face: "Wherever I go, I am a descendant of the god king Shanatanu and a descendant of Gaga (Note 1), how can I abandon my faith." β
Dijang fell to the ground and kissed the instep of Shanatanu's foot, not saying a word, but his attitude was more respectful.

"Father, I'm back. Shanatanu glanced down at Warren in front of him, compared to his memory, his father seemed to be much older, his temples were gray, and many of his beards had turned gray, and the whole person looked more majestic.
A smile flashed on Warren Shanatanu's face, and he coughed, "Karim, how is your mother doing?"
Shanatanu hasn't seen this father a few times since he was six years old, before Zhang Chen asked him to pretend to be pious, but now it is really difficult for him to show a pure filial attitude, Shanatanu had to lower his head and said in a low voice: "Mother's health has not been very good, and she now lives with me in Huaxia." β
Warren sighed: "I want you to remember that I sent you to the United States because the United States represents the most advanced technology and culture now." Andorizza told me some time ago that I was disappointed that you have not made any progress in your studies. β
Sanatanu's heart tightened: "Father, you are right. But I went to China because I invested in a chemical factory there, and you once said that anything you learn from books is good knowledge if you can use it. Through this venture, I hope to know what knowledge is what I need, I will not give up my studies, and after I have real results, I will continue to apply for further studies at Stanford. β
Warren snorted: "I heard that you invested in a chemical plant in Huaxia, it's just nonsense. Do you know the chemical industry? Do you know how to operate? Do you know Huaxia? And you still use my living expenses for you and your mother to do this kind of thing, if you lose, don't expect to get another penny from me!"
Shanatanu had a cowardly personality and trembled with fright, and when Warren saw him like this, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes: "Okay, you just came back too, and I'll go see your second brother Charan in a while." His bride is the daughter of the Nanda family, you and Dijang are more familiar with etiquette these days, don't let the Nanda family see the joke. β
Shanatanu snorted for a long time, and Warren frowned, "Is there anything else?"
"What your father wants is a bold and wise heir, and being weak will only make him disappointed in you. Sanatanu's mind flashed through what Zhang Chen said to himself.
"Father," Shanatanu gritted his teeth, "I know that Charan's marriage to Nanda's family is an opportunity for us to break into Mumbai. But I think that even if it is a marriage, the basis is that both parties can make a profit. Mumbai is India's largest commercial city and thriving trade. Although the second brother negotiated the supply contract of Imperial Tobacco, which laid the foundation for our entry into Mumbai, I think that if we can achieve more in business, our Mumbai strategy will be smoother, and we can also win more bargaining chips in the cooperation with the Nanda family. β
"Oh?" Warren Shanatanu was surprised, this little son had never been by his side, and his personality had always been relatively cowardly, and this was the first time he had expressed his opinion in front of him.
Sanatanu felt his legs tremble, and his heart was crossed: "Any cooperation is prioritized, and if we want to take the initiative in cooperation, we must show our value." So, Father, I suggest that we open another trade route in Mumbai. β
Warren's gray beard couldn't help but tremble, his son was too surprising today, who wouldn't want his son to be more promising? The smile on Warren's face flashed: "Reopen a trade route?"
Sanatanu gradually calmed down, and the more he spoke, the smoother he became: "Yes, agriculture is our traditional industry, but if we want to expand into Mumbai, it is not enough to rely on agriculture alone. Moreover, Mumbai has become India's international metropolis, and we need to maintain an international perspective as we expand. Nowadays, the global IT industry is developing very rapidly, and India is at the leading level in the world in terms of IT development. So, I hope we can give some attention to the IT side. β
"Nonsense!" Warren scolded, "Our family has never been in the IT business, and India does not have the ability to manufacture IT, and the major brands have been developing in India for a long time, and the channels have been fixed, so we have no chance." Blind expansion without taking into account India's reality is the most dangerous!"
Shanatanu swallowed, raised his head, and looked at Warren, "Father, have you heard of Matrix?"
Warren's eyes flashed: "Matrix?"
Sanatana took out the iBook that Zhang Chen gave him from his briefcase, "Now in the United States, the hottest brand is not IBM, nor DELL, but Matrix, you see, this is their product." β
Warren waved his hand: "Of course I know Matrix. β
"During the investment process in Huaxia, I happened to meet Zack x, the founder of Matrix, who has not yet explored the Indian market, and he is very interested in the Indian market. If you agree, I would like to be able to get the Indian distributorship of Matrix and work with them to develop the Indian market. β
Warren's eyes lit up: "Matrix's Indian agency?"
Shanatanu nodded: "Yes, after Zack Chang and I proposed, x agency is an excellent stepping stone for us to enter the IT industry." β
Warren leaned in: "What you said is true?"
Shanatanu smiled, "Of course, I know that Zack Chang happened to be in India to inspect IPRO these days. If you wish, father, I can try to contact him to come with you for an interview. β
Warren took a deep breath and swept his gaze over his son a few times.
"Good, good. β
Warren's tone was unconsciously mixed with a bit of relief.
Note 1: Gaga means ganga, which means Ganga in Hindi. Legend has it that after the ancestors of the Shanatanu family entered heaven, the wind blew the clothes of the goddess Henghe, and everyone else bowed their heads, but he did not bow his head, so he was punished by Brahma and reincarnated as a mortal, and the goddess Ganges descended to earth to become his wife.
