When Lothur, Rebecca, and Elke appeared in that place, everyone was silent, especially since they weren't hiding their 2nd Catastrophe Sage auras!
But everyone there couldn't help but look at the young silver-haired man, who not only had an aura twice as strong as those two women but also had all the characteristics of the creator of this company.
Those who didn't already know him, representatives of families from other Leopoldine provinces and families from other states, immediately realized who Lothur was.
At the same time, as they recognized him as the genius behind this company, they all felt nervous because, given his cultivation level, he could only be what many accused him of being.
A hybrid of human and demon!
Gulp!
While some trembled with fear, the people of Linn Province, who were already used to Lothur, all stood up to greet him, bowing their heads without exception.
Lothur smiled at his old acquaintances, seeing some he had recently helped and others he hadn't seen since the last Ritter Motor Company auction.
But when he saw the surprised or fearful expressions of some of his newer associates, he quickly opened his mouth to speak about the situation.
"Well, some of you are new and don't know me. Let me introduce myself. I'm Lothur Ritter, founder and majority shareholder of the Ritter Motor Company.
Don't be afraid of me because of my nature and my powers. I won't act against you or threaten you. You're already my partners, so we're in the same boat...
Anyway, I'm here today to give you some good news. As my wife promised, in a few days, we will be paying out the first dividend from our company.
The first dividend will be worth 450,000 gold coins for every fraction of 1% of the company. This means that powers like the Becker family, who own 7%, will receive 3.15 million gold coins." Lothur said, gesturing as he brought smiles to some of the faces there, slightly changing the expressions of those most worried about their situation.
"In addition, we will hold the third auction of shares in the Ritter Motor Company, selling 15% of the company."
When Lothur said this, the people there immediately became more interested in it than in his reality. Many wanted to increase their positions even before the dividend announcement he had just made.
"When will this happen?" One of the Rios family representatives asked.
"About a month. You should talk to Mabel Rios about it. She'll control the company when my wives and I leave soon." Lothur was sincere, showing these people he didn't intend to stay long.
'15%, and in a few weeks... It looks like the Ritter Motor Company will be without a controller.' One of the people there thought he liked that.
But then Lothur said. "As for this auction, my family will only be selling 7% of the company. The rest will come from the holdings of the Morning Star Academy, the Koch, Becker, and Frost families.
I would also like to announce that my family has recently allied with these powers and House Jansen. Thus, we will still have 50% of the company's votes even after the auction, which will keep us in the control of the company."
After Lothur's words, the representatives of these powers immediately confirmed what he had said, showing the company's partners that nothing would change in its direction.
Only new partners could join them, and more resources would be available for the Ritter family to expand their company's operations.
Realizing this, some of those most interested in the auction became more solemn, realizing they would still have to abide by the Ritter family's decisions, even if they disagreed.
With a majority of votes, the Ritter family could do whatever they wanted. Even hurt their other partners!
The strongest powers there didn't like that, so they couldn't help but be annoyed when they heard that this auction wouldn't change the problem.
They wanted control of the company, but not only that, they wanted Lothur out of their business!
"Senior Ritter, what is your interest in the Ritter Motor Company? I doubt that someone of your caliber needs coins. Even though the company is huge and has a lot of potential, those coins would be useless to someone like you.
What do you really want? Why don't you resign your position and take your family to live in seclusion away from all eyes? You could keep a minority stake in the company and still guarantee the future of your house." One of these men had the courage to say what half the people in the room wanted to say.
On the one hand, it was a very sensible comment. On the other, it showed the ignorance of such a person, who had no idea of the Ritter Motor Company's potential with the Koch family's espionage.
Only Lothur and the Koch family knew the company's real purpose, so many people looked at him curiously to find out why he wouldn't leave the company and live his life in peace.
Lothur looked at the man and said. "The Ritter Motor Company is not stable enough for me to relinquish control of it.
As my creation, I want to see it rise to the top and become the greatest institution on the continent. I won't give it up until it does."
His answer was good enough for many there to accept.
Who wouldn't want their creation to be the best and most important in the world?
Even if not everyone appreciated this noble goal, it was easy to understand.
At the same time, Lothur's words opened the door to those who were interested in one day getting rid of the Ritter family at the top of the company. So even the least happy people in the room couldn't complain about his answer.
Then, someone asked as the people in the room looked at each other, more satisfied than dissatisfied. "Senior, where are you looking now? I assume it was you who stopped the war and saved us all, right?"
With that question, everyone who didn't know that Lothur was behind the end of the war realized that he was the only explanation for the things that had happened in the last few weeks.
Not only that, but they realized how important Lothur was to this company, for without him, it would probably be in the hands of the enemies by now!
He said. "I'm going away to hunt demons with my wives. However, when I return, I'd like to see the Ritter Motor Company dominate at least the continent's southern region.
If that happens, I'll give my partners some prizes. So do your best, haha." He ended the meeting with this encouragement for these people to help him expand the company, which he felt was necessary for him to complete the system's mission.
