A group of men and women sat around a conference table in one of the hotel''s conference rooms, their expressions filled with calcted courisity.


    Howe you are here, Javier? A middle-aged man, who had a slightly overgrown beard, asked.


    "I could ask the same. What are you doing here, Roberto?" The man called Javier, asked.


    One could see that the two men were familiar and have a history, from the voices.


    Javier was very curious as to the reason why so many of the country''s constructionpanies owners are gathered in the conference room. He thought of the call he received from the presidency.


    ''Did they also receive the same 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 rxed 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 anddy walked through the door.


    The young man, who looks very American but extremely handsome, was followed closely behind by a youngdy who looks Asian, and South Korean to be precise.


    As a very experienced person, he quickly deducted that the youngdy following closely behind the young man is his CEO, but that wasn''t important at the moment.


    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 Gentlemen, my name is Ss and I''m the one who called for this meeting," The young man said, after he took his seat.


    Ss 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 meeting.


    "Ss, are you perhaps here representing the president?" One of the men 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 meeting agenda," Ss said and paused, allowing what he said to sink in, before continuing.


    "The reason why I called for this meeting is because I intend to purchase the constructionpany in the country that each of you own."


    Ss looked at their faces, wanting to see a reaction and it didn''t take long before he hears someoneughing.


    He looked at the culprit and he saw a elderly-looking-man, who looks to be at the end of his ropes,ughing 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. Ss doesn''t intend to use force to purchase thepanies 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 means most likely on less than a month time.


    Though Ss doesn''t intend to purchase thepanies forcefully, it doesn''t mean 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 manughing with an expressionless face.


    "Mr Esteban, may I know what''s funny?" Ss asked with a nk look on his face.


    "You want to know what''s funny?" The elderly-looking-man, name Mr Esteban asked.


    "Yes, I''m actually very curious." Ss replied, with the same nk expression on his face.


    Mr Esteban wasn''t worried that something would go wrong. As someone who has been in the corporate world for decades and even more in the cooperate world of a country like Venezu, he has built a very extensive webwork of connections and he isn''t scared of anything or anyone.


    "Ss 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 ourpanies? Excluding the small fries here, do you actually know the market evaluation of mypany?


    Do you think because the country economy is so bad and we would be willing to sell ourpanies to you?" Mr Esteban shot a series of questions at Ss.


    "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," Ss said, and looked at Mr Esteban, whose face now has a shade of red on it, due to embarrassment from Ss'' 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 yourpany?


    The answer to that is yes. Yourpany has a market evaluation of $356.46 million," Ss 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.


    Ss decided to continue what he was saying when he saw this.


    "My question now is how much will yourpany be worth when I expose all of the corporatews it has vited? 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 reced 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 yourpany to me but if any of you intend to sell, you can discuss withbmy secretary," Ss said and stood up from his seat, and left the conference room.


    He didn''t intend to stay throughout the whole meeting 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 constructionpany in the country, Venesuip Constructions.


    Ss understand the logic of subjugating the leader to take care of the minions. This logic isn''t exactly the same as the conference room''s situation but it wasn''t that different.


    Venesuip is the biggest constructionpany in the country. Though it has a lot ofpetitions, it''s far ahead of itspetitions.


    Ss knew that if he''s able to get Venesuip Constructions to lower their head, then he would have no problem with the rest.


    Ss 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, Ss put the matters concerning the meeting aside, as he made his way to his room.


    "Now, I should start simted research on how to add atomic printers to the machines," Ss said, as he thought of the next thing to do.


    "Luna, start simted research on how to incorporate atomic printers with specific programming into specific machines. Also, perform simted 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 Ss left, the rest of the meeting proceeded easily, as everyone was uncharacteristically cooperative.


    Luna purchased thepanies from their respective owners and it was finally time to choose who would manage the acquiredpanies that would be merged.


    She didn''t go through a long process as she chose someone who she saw has the best record in her database.


    After the meeting ended, she put a call to President Yusmaorobis to have him prepare and process thepany''s paperwork.


    That concluded the agenda for the day and it was now time for her to focus on the most important thing at the moment, the simted research on the Evolution Capsule.
