After that, Merlin gave the AI module the names of the seven oil fields.The AI module began gathering information on the oil fields, analyzed, compared, and processed the data before answering within seconds: [Raphael Inc. fits the bill the most. After cross-referencing the seven companies, it has the least count in labor, but its production capacity is also ranked second, making it far surpass the standard per capita productivity in the country and indicating the possibility of unknown laborers.]Merlin nodded. "Yes, but you also need to consider the possibility of unregistered employees. Your statistics are tabulated from the national labor union of the country, and that means only formal employees who have joined the union will be recorded. If they use a large number of unregistered informal employees, your judgment may deviate far too much."There was silence for seconds before the AI module replied: [Concurred. I have noticed something substantial about accidents and deaths of

Merlin's words left everyone thrilled, and Vera could barely hide her excitement from her youthful face. "That's true, Mr. Lammy—we will find them for now, and Charlie will eventually be able to destroy them!"Merlin smiled at her before turning to Charlie with a serious look. "We discussed it even before this module was activated, and my thought was to locate the Five Military Governors—not just their location, but also their organization and their other identities. According to your intel, it's the Right Military Governor who oversees Africa?""Yeah," Charlie replied, nodding.Merlin held a thumbs-up. "In that case, finding their Nigerian safehouse is just the first step. With Horizon's database now linked up to the AI module, we just might find clues that lead us to the Right Military Governor's base, and then we can destroy it altogether. That definitely will be a great blow to the Qing Eliminating Society!"Charlie's eyes lit up. "Well, what's the plan?"Merlin replied, "Beca

The SOPs for corporate acquisition were extensive and complex. The buyers would want to make sure they were not picking up a time bomb, and therefore send in professional appraisers to review company operations across the board. That meant they would be auditing to determine the numbers were right, and only commence the handover process after they found no issue.That was why Julien's intention to skip all of that left them in shock—forget auditing, the man wasn't even asking for a framework agreement before paying 2.5 billion USD.It was simply ridiculous!Still, seeing Carl's surprise, Julien shrugged. "When it comes to swindling the Rothschilds, there's no person who has lived to tell the tale. Paying you would be inevitable anyway since you would've already taken my deal, but if something came up in the audit, I would have all the resources I need to squeeze you and get my money back… and then some."Carl nodded repeatedly—that much was true, as anyone optimistic enough to de

Five billion was more than what Horizon was worth in the market.While Julien did issue a timeframe for when the buyout was actually complete, the payment didn't bank on demanding results—it was just a matter of signing a paper, and the money was theirs.In this day and age, you just couldn't bet on anything as the state of the world could change in the blink of an eye. Even if you believed you had the wind in your sails today, the whole industry could be dead in just three years. No one sane was going to bet that they could bring in better results in the future.That was why Carl basically decided once Julien explained his offer—it was one that no one could refuse.Even so, Carl would still like to squeeze more money out of this deal if he could. After all, he was negotiating with Julien Rothschild, the heir apparent of the Rothschild family. Five billion was no different from five million to them, and they could afford to spend more for something they liked.With that in mind,

Horizon's CTO then continued, "And after the photos have been stored—categorized by timestamps, the system will automatically refresh and replace the previous satellite images when the regulation time limit that is set by alphabet agencies expires."That said, Earth is still a huge place, and we need at least a couple of months to truly complete an up-to-standard photograph of the surface. That's why our data vault can provide users with satellite imaging of any corner of Earth, accurate to the last few months. It's both the main source of our income and the key ingredient that sets our software apart from the rest."Carl then butted in, "On the topic of income, Mr. Rothschild, my CFO will brief you on our latest financial forecast—""Patience," Julien held out a hand, stopping him. "I have other questions at the moment. For example, the imaging that the alphabet agencies asked to be stored—can you access it?""Yes," the CTO replied. "All imaging data is first relayed to our own se

Still, Carl could hardly contain his excitement as he exclaimed, "It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Rothschild! I'm Carl Lucas, CEO of Horizon! Just call me Carl if you like!"Julien nodded and shook his hand before saying, "Greetings, Carl. I'm sure you understand why I'm here, so let's start a proper discussion in the meeting room."Carl quickly nodded. "Yes, Mr. Rothschild! Please, come with me." Julien smiled as he followed Carl with his squad of bodyguards trailing behind him to the board meeting room just one floor down.When they arrived, two other executives entered—only after the bodyguards searched them.To avoid chaos and congestion, Carl only brought his CFO and CTO.As Julien took his seat, he said, "Well then, Carl—please give me a rundown on the current state of Horizon."Carl nodded respectfully as he began, "Well, for a start, Horizon is currently home to almost eight hundred employees. This building where we sit, which is valued at around seventy million, serves
