Blind Devil
108: Reuniting With Friends

Selamet after meeting with Raden Kusumo then thought, with what has been said by successful traders in the two kingdoms.

“Kill Aria Pilong! Is the manager willing to do what Raden Kusumo wants? Selamet said in his heart.

“The two people were very mysterious, one was a black faction figure, while the other one was the master, seeing that his bodyguards alone were like that, already, I'm sure the master is far more powerful than the bodyguard, though his eyes are blind,” Selamet's inner self.

“But Raden Kusumo trading network is very much needed, not to mention the information that will be obtained if the Raden joins, it will certainly be very profitable padepokan Jagad Buwana.”

“Di accept it or not, it's the caretaker's business, while I just convey it,” Inner Selamet.

Not feeling thinking while walking, Carik shadow is already in front of the residence Aria staying at.

Selamet knocked on the door of the house, before long Buto Ijo opened the door, then let Selamet sit down, after getting an order from Aria.

At the residence of Raden Kusumo, Resi Jayaprana questioned the attitude of the friend.

“Kusumo! Is it true that you sent a spy to watch over Mr Aria? Ask Jayaprana Resi.

“Really! But I didn't tell Suropati to interfere, I just watched from a distance, but you saw for yourself Buto Ijo killed my bodyguard.” Answer Raden Kusumo.

“Kusumo, I have warned you several times, so as not to disturb the young man, he is not just anyone you can easily fear,” reply Jayaprana Resi.

“It's too late! Raden Kusumo.

“What do you mean? Ask Jayaprana, Bayusena and Anjani and Rama who heard, curious about the words of Raden Kusumo.

“I had invited Selamet, asking for help to Jagad Buwana to kill Aria Pilong.

Brak!

“What did you say? Ask Resi Jayaprana while pounding the table.

“Grandpa! Why did Grandpa go that far? Ask Rama.

“This I did for the good of my grandson,” Raden Kusumo replied while looking at Rama.

“For my good or for grandfather's good? Anjani asked, tears on the girl's face.

“I promise I will not marry Aria's brother, because Aria's brother also does not necessarily like me.

“If grandfather promises to withdraw all what grandfather did to brother Aria, I will keep my promise,” continued Anjani.

Raden Kusumo took a deep breath hearing Anjani's words.

“If only you had said as you are today from yesterday, there is no friction between me and Aria Pilong.

“All has happened, tomorrow the group of Jagad Buwana will come, I have spoken with Selamet will join Jagad Buwana, if they want to help me overcome Aria Pilong.

“If you meet the manager of Jagad Buwana, I will withdraw the request, if Aria Pilong wants to leave Ranu pani village,” Raden Kusumo said.

The Jayaprana Rishis can only catch their breath.

“Kusumo! I just want to remind you, that there's something you can't buy with the money you have,” after saying. Resi Jayaprana then out of Raden Kusumo's house.

Jayaprana after leaving Raden Kusumo's house directly to Aria's residence.

The Jayaprana Rishis saw that Selamet had just come out of the Aria residence, then entered the house.

“What did Mr Selamet come here? Ask Jayaprana Resi.

“Si Selamet told Raden to leave Ranu pani Village, because tomorrow the people of Jagad Buwana will come,” Buto Ijo who answered Sang Resi's question.

“Lantas how! Are you guys going? Back Jayaprana rishi said.

“We will stay here! We also want to see, what kind of people from the padepokan Jagad Buwana,” replied Aria.

The Jayaprana Rishis could only catch their breath hearing Aria's words.

“Let me be with Mr. Aria here, I will explain the matter to the buwana universe if they want to comply with Kusumo's request,” resi Jayaprana said inwardly.

After getting permission from Aria, Sang resi finally stayed one house, on the advice of the rishi, Aria and Buto Ijo do not go out of the house while all their needs, Jayaprana rishi who will prepare.

During the day a rumbling sound was heard entering the village of Ranu Pani, a large entourage numbering in the hundreds with dozens of horses entering.

Jayaprana Rishis who peeked from the window of the house can only melt the tongue, true what was said by Kusumo, Singabarong looks gallant sitting on a horse side by side with the House, nyai Kidung Kencana just got off the horse carriage with some girls.

While a burly, tall man with a thick mustache and curving adorned the lips, stood near the horse Singabarong.

Raden Untung, aka Banteng wulung, a character who is difficult to face and likes to act at will just like the Buto Ijo.

“Don't...don't come out! Shouted Jayaprana rishis with a pale face, after seeing Buto Ijo about to open the door of the house.

“What's really why? I want to see Jagad Buwana,” said Buto Ijo.

“Do not! They are the figures in the land of Java, do not act rashly,” continued Jayaprana rishi.

“Just obey the words of Resi,” says Aria.

Buto Ijo did not open the door, after hearing Aria's words.

Selamet stood in front of the inn, then saluted Singabarong and the Wangsanaya rishis.

“Welcome to the manager of Padepokan Jagad Buwana, Please enter and rest inside,” Selamet said after saluting.

“Good...Good work Ki Selamet! Singabarong.

They then entered the inn, some of the errand boy escorted other members to occupy houses that had been provided for shelter.

“Master! Someone wants to meet the manager, he wants to become a member of the Jagad Buwana store,” whispered Selamet.

“Who? Ask Singabarong.

“Raden Kusumo, a great merchant, elders, his men also numbered in the hundreds,” Selamet replied.

“Trader! Singabarong cried while frowning.

Only now Singabarong heard that there were merchants who wanted to join, usually they paid enough tribute to establish a relationship with a big paddle.

“S told them to come! Singabarong who is interested in the word Selamet.

Singabarong, Nyai Kidung Kencana and Resi Wangsa sat at the big table, while Selamet and Raden Untung stood behind Singabarong.

Shortly thereafter, Raden Kusumo and his two grandchildren, Bayusena and his three disciples entered, after paying their respects and sitting down.

Singabarong looked at Raden Kusumo.

“It is nice to meet with the manager of Jagad Buwana,” Raden Kusumo said while giving respect, followed by others.

“What Selamet says is true! Raden wants to join Jagad Buwana? Ask Singabarong.

“Really chairman! Answer Raden Kusumo.

“I am not the chairman, just take care of the padepokan,” said Singabarong.

“What makes Raden want to join Jagad Buwana? Raden certainly knows if traders join padepokan, their business can be taken over by Padepokan or the profit resulting from trading in for two with padepokan,” said Nyai Kidung Kencana.

“I know Nyai, but in this era, if trading without going to a big college, is very risky, the competition is getting tighter can make people dark eyes, and target traders who try to interfere with his territory, he said, not to mention the many robbers that roam, if supported by a large store, we traders can get an escort and protected,” Raden Kusumo answered Nyai Kidung Kencana questions.

Singabarong, Wangsa and nyai kidung Kencana look at each other to hear the words of Raden Kusumo.

“What do you think? Singabarong says.

“We don't need the money, but if it's true what Selamet said, Raden Kusumo's men are scattered in dozens of cities, we easily get the information we want,”

While speaking, a loud voice sounded from outside.

Raden fortunately with Selamet immediately shot out, after seeing Buto Ijo standing while cursing maki, Raden fortunately immediately darted by slamming his fist towards the chest, while Selamet instantly disappeared, while Selamet immediately disappeared, after Selamet stood behind Buto Ijo, then both his hands smashed towards the back of Buto Ijo.

Two punches with high internal force hit towards the body of the Buto Ijo from the front and rear.

Blam it!

After receiving the blow, the two hands of Buto Ijo turned, trying to hit Raden Profit and Selamet.

The two retreated after seeing Buto Ijo unharmed and attacked back.

“Thick blow apparently! Raden chuckled while grinning.

“Be careful buddy, don't get close to him,” Selamet tell his best friend.

Ha Ha Ha Ha

“Stop! Shouted the House while laughing.

“Jo! Have you forgotten me? Asked Wangsa while approaching Buto Ijo.

Phoe!

“About a lot, your people are about to gang up on me, Wongso,” Buto Ijo replied, this time laughing.

Selamet immediately shot up and stood near Wongso, then asked. The manager knows him? Ask Carik shadow.

“He's our friend, including the man of Jagad Buwana.

“Buto Ijo is the personal bodyguard of Jagad Buwana,” Wangsa explained to Selamet.

“Not according to the manager's description, the chairman is being imprisoned? Ask Selamet.

“Inright! If Buto Ijo has come out, it is a sign that the chairman has finished his asceticism,” replied Wangsa, (What the manager of Jagad Buwana means is, Aria met and received a message from Resi Lanang Jagad )

“Personal guard...” Selamet said as his brain continued to think.

“Don't...don't the one with you in that house? Selamet asked while staring at Buto Ijo.

Buto Ijo immediately replied after seeing Selamet's gaze.

“She's your favorite, you idiot!
