Chapter 431 Influence Shown

After understanding why the Ritter Motor Company needed so much capital just to start its operations, those people were silent for a few moments, considering the situation.

'80 million bronze coins... I will have to contribute 800,000 bronze coins or 80,000 silver coins.' Jacob thought about it, as his family owned only 1% of this company.

On the other hand, the secretary of the Morning Star Academy principal, who was representing him, considered the 10% that this institution had in Lothur's company. 'We will have to spend another 800 thousand silver coins...'

'That project is costly!'

'But he will have to put in 4.08 million silver coins... So that must be really necessary.' She looked at Lothur, this young man who owned 51% of this company coming out of the paper.

Viktoria then said. "All right, here are the coins concerning the Frost family."

Lothur received 720 thousand silver coins from his wife soon after receiving 560 thousand from Elke.

Everyone there had prepared to make an investment of millions when they were called upon, so no one there had left it until a second time to make the payment.

Lothur soon had the 80 million bronze coins in his spatial ring, including his share, which he would later hand over to his partners to make the necessary investments.

Frederik saw all that while working on something, becoming anxious to access those resources that would be bought with that amount.

'Soon, I will be able to produce one of these vehicles in its original size...' He imagined with a smile on his face.

Lothur did not know what was in the mind of his chief carpenter, so he said to his partners' representatives. "Well, that's all for today. I will hand these resources over to the people and organizations responsible for developing the different areas in our company."

"But in a little more than ten days, we should already have the factory site partially finalized and the start of activities."

The eyes of those young people there opened as they glowed in anticipation.

Rebecca then asked, standing there as a representative of her mistress. "Will that be so fast? How long will it take before the first vehicle is produced?"

"Yes, it will be fast. We have already found where this factory will be built, and the construction service is easy to get. Then we just have to wait for the time needed for making the walls..."

Buildings on this world were not so different from those on Earth. Of course, there were differences concerning spiritual energy and powerful resources that could be used to construct special buildings, super-strong buildings, etc. But since Lothur was creating a factory, not a headquarters, the construction time depended basically on the weather.

If it rained, it would take longer because the concrete area would take more days to complete. However, if the weather were good, it would take only the minimum time for the cement and other components to dry.

Since Lothur and his partners were going to hire many builders to finish the construction of the factory quickly, the time gap was minimal.

'It's very convenient not to have to depend on regulators, authorization from environmental agencies, etc...' Lothur thought about this as he remembered the problematic Earth.

He then said. "After the factory is ready, I will take a few days to teach the formations and procedures to our professionals working on it. But, on the other hand, we must have a period to test the vehicles and correct possible mistakes."

"So I would tell you not to expect too much from us before a month... But after that, our first car could be ready anytime."

Building a car was quick and relatively simple. He and Frederik had only taken time to do their responsibilities as they had no previous help or experience.

But with the many employees in that factory and the experience the two had already gained and would improve upon later, it would be much faster to produce new vehicles in the future. This was true even considering the difference in size between the miniature and the original version.

Anyway, a little over a month was not much time for any of those people. So none of them were disappointed but very interested in this day when their dream would come true.

That was particularly true for Miss Koch, who had tried out Lothur's kart at the previous horse-racing stomp.

'I will be able to drive my carriage... Car to wherever I want!' She thought about it before saying goodbye, smiling in satisfaction.

Anneke followed her young miss after saying goodbye to Lothur, scheduling something for them to do over the next few days.

The other individuals left back to their families or those they had represented in this place. It was time for them to pass Lothur's words on to this young man's true partners!

Eventually, Lothur thought about going to Innumerable Scrolls. Still, when considering that he would only have his influence recognized locally after the launch of the Ritter Motor Company, he put that idea aside. He knew he needed new techniques, but he would only get access to the third floor of that store if he had a more impressive talent or more influence locally.

Since he could not so easily increase his talent and his influence would take a while to be recognized, he did not want to lose time by going to that place. Instead, this young man went towards the Cultivation House to buy some materials and train a bit.

He was a member of that organization, so he had discounts on the price of the unique training rooms there.

It was interesting to train in that place at least once a week. Hence, soon Lothur went next to Annaliese, with Elke and Viktoria returning to their families.

'A little more and I will become an alchemist...' Lothur looked at his sister-in-law, feeling that he would soon be able to help each of his women.

"Anna, have you started absorbing the crystals I gave you?" He asked on his way to that place.

"Yes, I managed to absorb the first one..."

The two continued talking while the Transcendent, watching Lothur from afar, had a curious expression on his face.

'What was that meeting about? Was it about that gathering from days ago at the local hippodrome?' He wondered about this information he had already come into contact with after investigating the changes in the surroundings of Lothur.

He had found no sign of anyone stronger than himself being watching Lothur, so he was much more at ease in taking action against this young man. But upon discovering these unusual dealings of young Ritter, he felt he needed to study this fellow further before acting.

'I think I should communicate with his grandfather... This matter seems to involve more than I can assess.' He concluded, remembering that even the Morning Star Academy principal was on Lothur's side.

In this way, without realizing it, Lothur prevented a dangerous approach from happening through his growing influence related to car production in this cultivation world!
