A group of n and won sat around a conference table in one of the hotel's conference rooms, their expressions filled with calculated courisity.
How co you are here, Javier? A middle-aged man, who had a slightly overgrown beard, asked.
"I could ask the sa. What are you doing here, Roberto?" The man called Javier, asked.
One could see that the two n were familiar and have a history, from the voices.
Javier was very curious as to the reason why so many of the country's construction companies owners are gathered in the conference room. He thought of the call he received from the presidency.
'Did they also receive the sa call?' He asked himself curiously.
When Roberto saw that he wasn't going to get any answer from Javier, he scoffed and looked at the faces of the rest in the conference room, in scrutiny.
He tried to see if he can get anything from the expression on their faces but he got nothing. Just like him, everyone else in the room are sly foxes.
When he saw that their expressionless faces, he decided to let it go, as he relaxed on his seat and stared at the door in anticipation.
He stared at the door, waiting to know who would walk through the door. He was very curious to know the identity of the person.
He didn't have to wait long as he saw a young man and lady walked through the door.
The young man, who looks very Arican but extrely handso, was followed closely behind by a young lady who looks Asian, and South Korean to be precise.
As a very experienced person, he quickly deducted that the young lady following closely behind the young man is his CEO, but that wasn't important at the mont.
He was very curious as what the identity of the young man could possibly be? He thought of different possibilities to what his identity could be but none of them matched.
This left him confused and he looked at the faces of others and he saw that they were just as confused and curious as him.
"Ladies and Gentlen, my na is Silas and I'm the one who called for this eting," The young man said, after he took his seat.
Silas saw how curious and confused everyone was, when he walked into the conference room. He also saw how they reacted when he told them that he was the one that called for the eting.
"Silas, are you perhaps here representing the president?" One of the n asked.
"Mr Guillermo, I'm not here representing the president or the presidency. I'm here representing myself. I'm sure that you're curious about how I was able to achieve this but that's not what's on today's eting agenda," Silas said and paused, allowing what he said to sink in, before continuing.
"The reason why I called for this eting is because I intend to purchase the construction company in the country that each of you own."
Silas looked at their faces, wanting to see a reaction and it didn't take long before he hears soone laughing.
He looked at the culprit and he saw a elderly-looking-man, who looks to be at the end of his ropes, laughing hard and also coughing hard.
He had already gone through the information of everyone in the conference room and he was very familiar with each faces. He has also gotten every information that could be gotten on them and he was prepared for anything.
Not that they can fight back anyway. Silas doesn't intend to use force to purchase the companies from them as he felt he's actually just doing them a favor.
If anyone refuses to sell, then he won't force them as he knew that they would be out of business very soon and by very soon, it ans most likely on less than a month ti.
Though Silas doesn't intend to purchase the companies forcefully, it doesn't an he's going to be casual with them. Even though he's the one purchasing, he knew that he's the one that has the advantage, and it's a very huge advantage.
It's for this reason he looked at the man laughing with an expressionless face.
"Mr Esteban, may I know what's funny?" Silas asked with a blank look on his face.
"You want to know what's funny?" The elderly-looking-man, na Mr Esteban asked.
"Yes, I'm actually very curious." Silas replied, with the sa blank expression on his face.
Mr Esteban wasn't worried that sothing would go wrong. As soone who has been in the corporate world for decades and even more in the cooperate world of a country like Venezuela, he has built a very extensive web network of connections and he isn't scared of anything or anyone.
"Silas or whatever you call yourself. Who the fuck are you actually? Do you really think you can just walk into the room and spout shit from your mouth? You want to purchase our companies? Excluding the small fries here, do you actually know the market evaluation of my company?
Do you think because the country economy is so bad and we would be willing to sell our companies to you?" Mr Esteban shot a series of questions at Silas.
"Most of the questions you asked are very irrelevant. I'm not surprised as it's in line with your character as a grumpy old man who's scared of dying and losing everything," Silas said, and looked at Mr Esteban, whose face now has a shade of red on it, due to embarrassnt from Silas' words.
"Don't worry, I will answer the only relevant question you asked. You asked that excluding the small fries, do I know the market evaluation of your company?
The answer to that is yes. Your company has a market evaluation of $356.46 million," Silas said and paused for a few seconds, as he looked at Mr Esteban with a smile that didn't look like a smile on his face.
When he saw that the Mr Esteban was now smiling. The previous embarrassed look he had on his face was now gone.
Silas decided to continue what he was saying when he saw this.
"My question now is how much will your company be worth when I expose all of the corporate laws it has violated? What if I actually expose all of your deeds?," He asked, and watched Mr Esteban closely to see his reaction.
He saw the quick and drastic change in his expression, as the smile on his face, stiffened and it was replaced with fear.
"Mr Esteban, I'm very sure you know the answer to that. Actually, I don't intend to force any of you to sell your company to but if any of you intend to sell, you can discuss withbmy secretary," Silas said and stood up from his seat, and left the conference room.
He didn't intend to stay throughout the whole eting as he felt he has already achieved what he wanted.
There was a reason he said those words to Mr Esteban as he's owner of the biggest construction company in the country, Venesuip Constructions.
Silas understand the logic of subjugating the leader to take care of the minions. This logic isn't exactly the sa as the conference room's situation but it wasn't that different.
Venesuip is the biggest construction company in the country. Though it has a lot of competitions, it's far ahead of its competitions.
Silas knew that if he's able to get Venesuip Constructions to lower their head, then he would have no problem with the rest.
Silas has also expected the reaction from Mr Esteban due to the familiarity he has with his character. Just as he said, he's a grumpy old man who is scared of dying and losing everything he has.
Since he has already handed over everything to Luna, Silas put the matters concerning the eting aside, as he made his way to his room.
"Now, I should start simulated research on how to add atomic printers to the machines," Silas said, as he thought of the next thing to do.
"Luna, start simulated research on how to incorporate atomic printers with specific programming into specific machines. Also, perform simulated research on how to build high-performance heavy duty machines that can be used for construction works. Not just machines for construction works but every machine that could possibly be needed in the future."
{Yes master.}
****
After Silas left, the rest of the eting proceeded easily, as everyone was uncharacteristically cooperative.
Luna purchased the companies from their respective owners and it was finally ti to choose who would manage the acquired companies that would be rged.
She didn't go through a long process as she chose soone who she saw has the best record in her database.
After the eting ended, she put a call to President Yusmaorobis to have him prepare and process the company's paperwork.
That concluded the agenda for the day and it was now ti for her to focus on the most important thing at the mont, the simulated research on the Evolution Capsule.
