Behind the main entrance of the main building was a huge hall. But at this moment, other than Xiao Ran and a few others who had just walked in, there was not a single soul in sight. Large and small oil paintings were hung all around the hall. The luxurious decorations added some style to the hall. Although Xiao Ran couldn't understand what these oil paintings were, he knew that these oil paintings were definitely not cheap.
Xiao Ran was facing a long corridor, and on both sides of the hall were circular staircases built along the walls. At this moment, Marsha's shameful and angry shouts could be heard from the direction of the circular staircase.
Katyas didn't seem to hear his sister's shouts, as he gestured towards Xiao Ran with a smile. "After such a long journey, I think you should take a rest first. I'll have someone call for you when it's time for dinner."
"Alright." Xiao Ran smiled and nodded. The guest followed Katyas' arrangement and entered a clean and spotless guest room. El Erf and Ryukino were also arranged to stay on both sides of Xiao Ran's guest room. Although the continuous journey of two days wasn't that tiring, Xiao Ran still laid down on the bed to rest.
After Katyas led Xiao Ran to a place to rest, he left and entered the deepest bedroom of the main building. In this bedroom, an old man with white hair and long beard was lying on the soft bed in the center of the room. Only when Katyas entered the bedroom did the old man open his eyes.
The old man's pair of eyes revealed a drowsy gaze, after seeing Katyas, he slowly opened his mouth with a hoarse voice. "Katyas, you've returned. Have the guests been arranged?"
"It's been arranged." Katyas expressionlessly stood beside the old man's bed. He raised his head and looked at the room that had been completely transformed into a universe by the virtual projection. His gaze then focused on the large earth sphere and moon that were projected out.
The old man was Katyas' grandfather, Saiyam. At this time, Saiyam was already very old. Fortunately, with the wealth of the Bister family, he was able to maintain a healthy body. He was able to maintain his life without any illness or disaster.
Old man Saiyam glanced at the cold Katyas, and similarly looked at Earth. "Are you sure you want to do this?"
"Yes, I'm sure." Katyas calmly replied without turning his head. "Their appearance allowed me to see the hope of success. It also allowed me to see the future of mankind. So even if I have to put down the entire Bister family as a bargaining chip, I'm willing. "
"Even if I didn't agree, when I saw those things, I already had no way out. Based on what they've shown so far, even if we don't join them, their success is inevitable. " Katyas turned his head and looked straight at Saiyam. "As for my Lord Grandfather, they might know as well. It's because you brought this world into its current situation, causing the world to split and fall into chaos. At the same time, we hold the key to change this world once again. What started with Bister will also end with Bister. This is a chance for our Bister family to escape the abyss, and also a chance for redemption. "
"Redemption … …" Saiyam laughed at himself. His eyes stared blankly ahead. "If this chance for redemption came earlier, how good would that be … … Katyas … … you … … forgive me?"
Katyas slowly closed his eyes, taking a deep breath before turning around: "At this time, I'm afraid I'll have to leave." A world is about to end and a new world is about to arrive. You're willing to put down your entire family and business to gamble. Who wouldn't forgive you? "
"Is that so?" A relieved smile appeared on Saiyam's face. He nodded and closed his eyes. "From today onwards, the Bister family and the Anaheim company will all be under your charge. I will fall into a deep sleep. Wake me up when that day comes."
"Understood." Katyas nodded. After opening his eyes, he resolutely strode out of this most important room of the family. The moment Katyas stepped out of the room and closed the door behind him, Saiyam's freezing process also began. This meant that this old man who had committed a grave mistake had officially fallen into a long, frozen sleep. He had entrusted everything to Katyas.
It was evening when a servant knocked on Xiao Ran's door. After Xiao Ran tidied himself up, he went out and saw Ryukino and El Erf waiting outside. The three of them were led by the servant into a large dining room. It was there that they saw Katyas, who they had not seen for the entire afternoon.
Katyas was sitting at the main seat at the long table. After seeing Xiao Ran, he stood up with a smile and greeted Xiao Ran. "How was your rest?"
"Not bad." Xiao Ran nodded with a smile. Looking at the dining room where only Katyas was present, he asked, "Does the old family head not need to come together?"
Katyas showed an apologetic expression to Xiao Ran. "Grandfather is already old and his mind is not in good condition. In order to see that day come, he chose to freeze himself. So I'm afraid you two won't be able to meet for the time being. "
"Is that so? That's a pity." Xiao Ran shook his head and said, "But I believe that it won't be long before he can see that day."
The host and guests enjoyed the meal to their heart's content. Although Katyas was the only one present, the Bister Family was already sparsely populated, so there wasn't any impoliteness. If the woman named Marsha and the chubby son of Katyas were to accompany them, that would be the real impoliteness.
After the meal, Katyas brought Xiao Ran into a study room. El Erf and Ryukino began to stroll around. Katyas took out the organized personnel information in the study room and gave Xiao Ran a detailed introduction of the people in the information bit by bit. Every piece of information represented a person with interests related to the Bister family. This was also the other main purpose of their return to Earth this time, to persuade these interested parties to cooperate and get rid of those who were unwilling to cooperate.
At the same time, they had to arrange everything for Xiaya's future actions. Once Xiaya's matters are dealt with and after contacting the useful people within the Guyon family, he would have to choose a suitable opportunity to return to Earth and announce his identity to the world. He would also have to tell the world the fact that Zabi family had assassinated his father and establish a new Guyon to confront the old Guyon led by Zabi family.
And before that, Xiao Ran and Katyas must get rid of all the unstable elements within the Earth Federation for Xiaya. While ensuring that the new Guyon can obtain the support of the Earth Federation, they also have to ensure the independent leadership of the new Guyon. They can't just become a chess piece for the Earth Federation to deal with Guyon. Rather, they have to establish an independent force that can speak on equal terms with the Earth Federation.
To achieve this, they must obtain the support of many important people within the Earth Federation. Then, they have to meet with interested parties, get rid of those who are unwilling to cooperate, and rope in those who are willing to cooperate with the Earth Federation. This is also the key to coming to Earth this time.
And the last plan that has been formulated is the arrangement for Xiao Ran. Putting Xiao Ran in the Anaheim Company is simply a waste. Moreover, the moon city controlled by the Anaheim Company cannot become his exclusive territory because there was a transaction element in it from the beginning, and the possibility of letting the Anaheim Company become his exclusive territory was denied.
So, if he wants to obtain an exclusive territory in this world, he has to set out in another direction. That is, the new Guyon that he will establish in the future, or the Earth Federation. Xiao Ran won't consider Guyon at all. He can only consider the direction of the Earth Federation. If he wants to finally achieve the goal of obtaining an exclusive territory, he must let Xiao Ran join the Earth Federation.
Moreover, it has to be a place where it is easy to obtain military merits and can be promoted quickly. Even if there are people taking care of him, he has to openly climb step by step from a lower place to a suitable position. The whole process must be very positive towards the Earth Federation, and he has to control both the armed forces and the administrative department at the same time to get sincere support.
The front part is easy to achieve. He just needs to climb up to a suitable position. Having an independent jurisdiction is good, but the later part is difficult.
To have independent diplomatic authority, the support of the people in the jurisdiction must reach more than 85%, and the population must be 5 million. This will take a lot of energy to achieve. However, according to Xiao Ran's current plan, with the Earth Federation's original constitution in his hands, as long as the opportunity is right, he will be able to become the orthodox member of the Earth Federation. Naturally, he will also obtain some of the highest rights to a certain extent. In this way, he will have the possibility of obtaining an exclusive territory.
Over the next few days. Xiao Ran and the other two were like tourists. Under the guidance of the personnel arranged by Katyas, they toured the entire city and the headquarters of Anaheim. This can be considered as Xiao Ran's inspection of his own industry, from various places on Earth to the universe. Many people who were considered important in the Earth Federation now or in the past also rushed to Anaheim.
Katyas sent out invitations to all stakeholders in his own name, inviting these people to come to Anaheim to 'visit' the newly developed super technology. Of course, Xiao Ran was not interested in what was going on in private. As long as people came, it was enough for Xiao Ran.
However, with the conduct of these high-ranking officials, it was normal for them to put on airs and drag the time. Even Katyas arranged for the meeting to start a week later. These people were given a full week's time, and on the last day or two, these people finally arrived in Anaheim.
On the day of the meeting, the huge conference hall of Anaheim was filled with people. There were over a hundred people either sitting or standing in the hall. This did not include the guards, subordinates, and confidants of these people who were unable to enter the conference hall and were all waiting in other places.
This hall was decorated according to the style of a cocktail party. Although it was a conference, it was more like an Anaheim company meeting. Although all of them were from the Earth Federation, there were also people from other departments of the Earth Federation aside from the military. No matter which side they were from, everyone was familiar with each other here. Everyone gathered in groups and chatted with smiles on their faces.
As the host of this place, Katyas was already receiving guests with a face full of smiles when the banquet started. He would exchange a few words with everyone who came, and the other party would also maintain a friendly smile, politely and even flatteringly speak to him.
If an explosion suddenly occurred in this place and killed everyone here, the final result would be a huge shock to the entire Earth Federation. The power would not be inferior to directly dropping a nuclear bomb on the Earth Federation headquarters or the Presidential Palace. Katyas was able to chat with these people and even receive compliments from some of them, it was enough to show Katyas' position in the Earth Federation.
Xiao Ran had been standing in a corner of the hall where he was not noticed by others. He looked at those smiling people through the glass in front of him. El Erf was using the information provided by Katyas to compare the people in the hall one by one. After all, these people's identities had been explained to Xiao Ran when they entered the hall. Especially those who were worthy of attention, El Erf would introduce them in more detail and provide his own analysis. Of course, he would also note whether Katyas could be roped in or not.
After waiting for almost an hour, Xiao Ran felt a little impatient as he watched more and more people arrive. It was not that Xiao Ran did not have the patience to continue waiting, but Xiao Ran felt a little disgusted when he saw those smiling faces. Their entire body was filled with a disgusting and ugly aura.
"How many people have arrived now?"
El Erf heard Xiao Ran's impatient tone and calmly replied. "A total of 126 people have been invited. There are still 7 people who have yet to arrive. With the status of these 7 people, they will most likely only appear at the last moment."
"Hmph, these people who sit in positions and do nothing. They can't do proper work, but they are very familiar with protecting their privileged status and ostentation." Xiao Ran lightly snorted. He turned around and was too lazy to look at those disgusting people. He directly sat on a chair. Ryukino also had a face of dissatisfaction. After serving Xiao Ran a glass of wine, he curled his lips and said, "If these people are in the New Guiors, hmph, these people have no qualifications to join the New Guiors. It would be best to send them to the Military State of Dorcia to dig coal."
