Ethan stepped outside from the vehicle, looking in the direction of the chairman standing outside the company along with other executives in order to welcome him.
"Welcome, Mr. Ethan. We are pleased you personally visited our company. How is Mr. Walter?"
The chairman hurriedly walked forward with a smile and greeted politely with a little flattering attitude.
"Grandpa is fine; I appreciate your hospitality, but I don't have much time for all this. I have a small project, and I want your company to complete it. It's a construction project in our Walter house."
Ethan nodded and replied with a calm expression,
"Mr. Ethan, please come with me and tell me about the project in detail." The chairman nodded and hurriedly spoke and invited him inside the company.
Ethan nodded and then walked inside the company along with him, after nodding toward the other executive around.
After a while,
"Mr. Ethan, we have evaluated your project; it will be completed in twenty-five days at the fastest. We will start working on it from the coming week."
The chairman spoke, looking at him solemnly after observing the project documents and diagrams.
Ethan fell silent, and then after a while, he shook his head.
"I can't give you twenty-five days; I want you to complete it in fifteen days maximum. Start working on it from tomorrow. I have already arranged the material required for the structure, and other construction machinery will also be delivered today. Your company can even complete it in less time, working twenty-four hours."
Ethan replied calmly, relaxed back on the seat, looking at him while tapping the table with his fingers.
Sweat beads condensed on the chairman's forehead, feeling the sharp gaze of Ethan, his brow furrowed, and then he spoke,
"Twenty-four hours of labor is possible, but according to the labor law, we will have to pay three times wages for the night shift,"
"Deal, don't worry about the cost, add all kinds of extra expenses to your project tender and submit it today; you will receive 50% payment tomorrow and the other 50% after project completion."
Ethan nodded with a smile. stood up and extended his hand toward him and then replied calmly,
The chairman was startled and then smiled hurriedly, stood up, shook Ethan's hand, and thanked him.
"Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Walter. We will complete this project on time. Our company will review the land and machinery tomorrow and then start working on it the day after tomorrow."
Ethan nodded, shook hands, and then left the office of WS Construction. After that, he visited the other construction companies one by one.
He didn't receive any rejection or hindrance; all those companies successfully received the project and promised to complete it in the given time.
...
After a few hours,
"Money really can do everything,"
Ethan muttered, standing near the street edge, looking at the open land in front of him and the sun setting slowly behind the mountains far away.
"Star, today's tasks have been completed," Ethan spoke thoughtfully.
"Yes, master, you can now return home; all the machinery and materials you ordered have been delivered."
Star spoke instantly; a grid appeared on his phone, showing CCTV footage of his whole villa outside and inside.
Ethan nodded, looking at the footage, and some important machines are being unloaded inside the warehouse after emptying it by removing all cars from it.
"What are tomorrow's tasks?" Ethan asked thoughtfully,
"The first task of tomorrow is to deal with construction company executives and engineers; they will arrive early morning and review the land."
"Second task: order all kinds of agricultural equipment and items, almost all kinds of plant seeds and young shoot samples. I have already ordered these items; you will just have to answer the confirmation calls tomorrow. All of these will be delivered in the next thirty days."
"Third task: order the latest supercomputers, servers, workstations, and components from all over the world and all kinds of useful tech items for the next ten years survival."
Ethan nodded thoughtfully and then said, "Increase the order amount of all kinds of components by eleven. I am going to build more servers, workstations, and supercomputers."
"Yes, master," Star replied directly. The third task changed.
Ethan nodded and then turned around, walked back toward the SUV, and then returned to the villa.
After a while, inside the Walter's Villa,
"Little Ethan, what are you going to do with these materials? You know they will come for you soon; you don't have much time for all this."
Grandfather Earl asked with a confused expression on his face, looking at Ethan standing beside him, then he glanced in the direction of huge material dumps outside the villa.
"Grandpa, the neurotechnology will let us sleep for ten years and stop your aging process in such a duration; they don't have any other way to save lives in such a cruel world except this, although it is the best option for individuals like you and Granny Gale, but for me it's like a cage. I am sorry I can't go to that place with you; I just woke up and don't want to sleep again."
Ethan took a deep breath and replied with a firm expression on his face.
Instantly silence spread around; Grandfather Earl glanced at the firm expression on his face and fell silent.
After a little silence, Grandfather Earl walked toward the chair and sat down, shook his head, and sighed.
"Sigh! This little guy is really stubborn, just like his father."
After muttering to himself, he turned and glanced at Ethan and asked solemnly, "You are preparing a shelter in this villa area."
After speaking, Grandfather Earl then reminded him again with a persuasive expression.
"I wanted to tell you that the imperial family gave us only two quotas, and recommended individuals are young couples. I and Gale are already old; there is no use for us going there, but you are young and energetic, and you are the future of this world. I want you to go there with your fiancé; think about it again."
'Fiance? I didn't kill that bitch; it's my kindness, and you expect me to make her my partner. She knew that I had recovered, and she didn't visit me once, probably afraid because of her previous actions.'
Ethan cursed the so-called fiancé in his heart, then shook his head and replied firmly,
"Grandpa, if they are giving only two quotas, then I can't leave; it's best for you and Granny Gale to go. Also, I don't like that fiancé."
