CHAPTER SIX

Wolf

Wolf’s castle

The next day when I woke up I got out of bed and there in front of me on the floor were ten drones. Just as I was starting to wonder what they were doing there the computer spoke up.

Good morning master I wanted you to see the finished product before I sent them to do the tasks that they are required to do to day.

Thanks you can send them on the way. Now could you tell me why you sound different today.

I have a file that you have to watch and after you watch it you should know the answer.

That doesn’t answer my question and why do I have to watch that file.

I was told that if you were to ask if I sound different then I should give you the file to watch and it would answer your questions. It’s going to take a few minutes to watch you might want to sit down on the bed and I will display the file.

I sat down on my bed and got comfortable then I told the computer to play the file.

A man and woman appeared and from seeing my reflection I knew that these peaple were relatives. Then the man started talking. If you are seeing this that means you found the the vacation palace. Yes I said palace it’s not a castle so please stop calling it that. Castle implies military and war while vacation palace implies family and relaxation.

Now before you start throwing a fit and getting bored we will tell you what we have to. We are going to give you some predictions and you could do with them as you wish but we will also tell you what we think is right. The first prediction is that the idea to host parties at the palace is a bad idea. The reason for that will become known a little further on.

Now we are going to discuss why you are taking the classes you are. The reason you are taking business political theory and law are to help you with your life. The other classes you will take will also help but these are the ones that will help the most at the moment. You will take other classes that will be important such as psychology but there will be others.

Your life is going to be hard but through out it all you are going to have to remember that you will be stronger on the other side. You will eventually end up on a planet that is very primitive. But there is where you will learn what it means to be a lycan. From there you will finally be able to know where you come from and where you are going.

Also since you are seeing this recording that means you asked why the computer sounds different. To answer that I will let you speak to my wife since I have no idea how to explain what happened and since she is a computer expert she will.

Ok so the computer was programmed to download and update it’s systems when you fixed the drone maker. Now I will give you a minute to think about the reason why it was needed for the computer to update itself.

I’m sorry I can’t figure it out and I’m starting to get hungry so could you hurry up.

Ok I will hurry up so you could go eat.

There I was very good with computers but the one thing I could never do was create an artificial intelligence. But you need a artificial intelligence to control the drones that was why the computer updated itself when the drone maker was finished. But that brings me to another problem and that is artificial intelligence needs a lot of processing power. But I finished the coding only a few days before we left and I was never able to add more computer equipment to make the artificial intelligence as good as it could be. It could be quicker but you are going to have to fix that when you have time.

Also the artificial intelligence is a blank slate it will need your help updating itself from now on. So you are going to learn computer code from theA.I. when you come home at night. You should also watch what the computer does it will follow your lead and learn from you so do try to set a good example. One more thing we love you and you should always keep Jacob close he will be there through thick and thin. Everyone needs some one to look after them and he is this person for you and always remember we love you.

With that the hologram faded and I just sat on my bed looking confused. That was until my stomach grumbled letting me know I still didn’t eat. So I got up and went to the bathroom took a shower got dressed and went down to the dining room to eat some breakfast.

After breakfast I went to the study and sat down to think about the holographic message I saw. As I thought about I realized the plans that I was thinking of using weren’t going to work. But they did imply that the thing most important thing right now was focusing on my education. So I decided I would try to be the best I could be at the classes I was taking.

After thinking about all the stuff in the holographic message I had lunch then went back to the study to have a conversation with the A.I. about the stuff I would need to upgrade its systems. Ok computer why don’t you tell me how much work I will have to do on you for you to reach peak performance with out going overboard.

I think multiplying my processing by twenty should should get us what would be needed and some extra in case of a emergency. But to do that we are going to have to start working on the palace to make room for more computer hardware. I would prefer to make my own hardware but with only having ten drones it would take to long. But luckily I have a very good idea that would work out very nicely for all parties involved.

Ok so what is this bright idea you have.

It is a long term plan that would probly be helpful in the future also and I will tell you why. So the plan would be to invest in a kid with a revolution in computer technology. So we are going to invest for a portion of the company which will be a good income source. But that still leaves us with a problem because we need the proper software on the new processing chips. Which I will do and like that there won’t be any mistakes and it will fit me perfectly.

If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it.

Now that I’m thinking about it we should probably get some of his storage chips. He has a good design for those also. It’s going to take some time for the kid to get the stuff produced but we will start receiving both types of chips in like a years worth of time. In the mean time I will use the drones I have to start preparing stuff around the house like adding more room to the basement for the extra hardware. Also making sure we have enough power for the house even with all systems running.

So what do you think of the plan that I came up with.

I think it’s a great plan now we just have to get the kid here so we could speak about a investment. Which I think would be perfect for Kalnas to do. So I guess we got our marching orders.

So let the computer take care of the arrangements for our investment into this kids tech company. While the computer did that I had my first day of the second quarter to get to so I got up early. After getting up and going to the bathroom I dressed and headed to breakfast. Since I was going to start some martial arts training I didn’t eat so much preferring to eat after martial arts training. So I had some fruit and bread and headed to the gym at the college with Jacob in tow.

Jacob told me that there is a few levels in martial arts and the college barely scratched the surface for the first. There training was mainly for exercise not for formal training on how to fight. But still it was good to keep my body in shape and I liked being active.

After finishing my training I went to the cafeteria and had some breakfast then I went to my first class of the day and that was political theory. I got to the class sat down in the back and waited for the lecture to start. When I saw someone move on stage I got ready to listen then the lecture started.

Ok list up everybody. Now does anybody know why this class is called political theory.

A few peaple answered but nobody got the right answer. Ok I see some of you tried but I will tell you because I want to keep this moving. The answer is because politics is a ever changing field of what peaple want. But there is no one right or wrong way to do something and that is why it is a theory. It’s a theory because there is no one right answer there could be many.

Now I’m going to explain what we will be learning so like that you could all see what I’m trying to get to. Politics is really just a game of logic with the pieces that keep changing allegiances. So to counter act that you must have good information. So like that you control the board but that is not the easiest thing to do and in this class you will learn how to control the board.

After that introduction to politics the instructor gave a lecture in the rest of the time then I went to my next class which was law. I thought law would be all about the laws but boy was I wrong.

Ok class let’s get started what is law. Laws are a set of rules. You are probably thinking that this class will be all about laws and how they are made or in forced. You would be wrong. This class is about loopholes in the laws that can be exploited for your benefit. The way to do that is to know all the laws that exist where you are practicing law. But there is one more thing that is needed and that is to understand what the laws mean. To do that you must understand the language they are written in both the spoken language and the written one. You also must know the the dictionary of that language like the back of your hand so there are no mistakes.

So in this class we will pick one empire and use them as the basis of this class. Then you are going to learn the language then we will start finding the loopholes for us to use. That is what this class is about if you don’t think you could keep up leave now because we will be speeding up. Now you are all dismissed you will find the empire I want you to study on your pads so get going.

After law class I went and grabbed a bit of lunch then headed to business class. It was a bit noisy until the instructor went up to the podium then it quieted down quickly.

In this class you will learn how to run a business. That means you will learn about all the parts that make a business successful. You will learn about how to delegate so you don’t have to do it all yourself and still be successful. You will learn about investing and how to make sure your company does not fail.

The point of this class is to teach you that you’re probably not the smartest person in the room. But you have to rely on them and make sure they are not stealing from you. We will touch on a lot of stuff but the main thing will be management. That is to make sure everything is moving forward together.

After the lecture was over I went to my next class which was basic science. Basic science tought the basics of the most essential sciences. This was a class that was just for getting my brain working.

Planet Delta Seven

On the planet Delta Seven lived Baku Sirna. Baku was very good with electronics so it was no surprise to his parents when he came up with new and improved computer chips. But there was a slight problem and that was Baku couldn’t get the money for a loan to start his business. He went to everyone from his family patriarch to the clan patriarch nobody would give him the loan. So he was very surprised to get a message stating that if he wanted money for his computer chip business then he should arrange a way to get himself to the emporium. With renewed hope that he might be able to make his dreams come true he started looking for a way to get to the emporium.

Baku ended up spending all his savings purchasing a ticket on a transport headed to the emporium. Baku was very happy that he might finally be able to produce the chips that he was so proud of and that he would be able to support his family.

When Baku arrived at the palace he was wondering how this person found out about his computer chips. He didn’t have long to think about it because Marie showed up to show him to his room.

Marie told him to rest take a shower and that she would send someone to take him to dinner.

At the palace

Wolf

Marie sent someone to bring Baku to dinner and once he arrived dinner was served. Once we finished eat is when the conversation was where we got to the main reason that Baku was here.

Ok I know that you probably went to a lot of peaple for money why don’t you tell me about it.

Well my family is not rich so I went to my clan patriarch and he said he wouldn’t loan me any money. So I went to my bloodline patriarch he also said he wouldn’t give me any money. So I went and got into a college because my bloodline patriarch pays for all kids of the bloodline to go to college. I went for a major in business and a minor in engineering. I’m about to finish those four years I was hoping I would be able to get some one else to loan me some money. But my hopes were for nought that was until I got your message.

So how much money would you want and how would you spend it.

Well I would want a hundred million credits. I would hire a manufacturing company to produce the computer chips then I would sell it to ship building companies and to different computer companies. From there I would probably move on to different technologies.

Ok so let me tell you what the problem is with your plan there are other places that would buy your computer chips. Also you have the problem of the manufacturer stealing the specks and selling it himself.

So how would you go about fixing these problems. I guess I would have to manufacture the chips in house. But that would mean the hundred million credits I’m asking for won’t do much. Because I would have to set up a manufacturing company.

As for getting companies to want my chips I would offer it to different empires first and each empire wants to be best. By the time I could sell it to phone and computer companies it would be cheaper and affordable. That would solve my getting peaple to want my chips because it would be on the military budget and they are always trying to be the best.

Ok it looks like you solved the second problem so I will solve the first. I will give you a billion credits for 20% of the company. With the billion credits you will find a manufacturing plant that is going out of business and buy and that’s how you will start producing your chips. One more thing before you start selling chips you will have to fill a order that I’m placing. I will send you what it is in a few days if these terms are acceptable then I will get a contract written and we will sign. Also I don’t want to be known so it will be done through a company so please don’t mention my name.

So I guess I will stay a few more days and wait for the contract. As for mentioning your name I already forgot it.

Just like that started a partnership that would last through thick and thin. But was also when Wolf started adopting a business style and that style was to buyout failing companies and turn them into what he wanted. But he wouldn’t really do it again for a few years.

A few days later the contract was signed and Baku left with his money to make his dream come true. Once he left Wolf started concentrating on school work. What he found was that his three main classes complemented each other and he really enjoyed that.
