บท 2091: Address and Compensation

A large number of people had gathered in a conference hall, garbed in business attire.

None of them wore a pleasant expression on their face.

The various Kandrian stakeholders, patrons, and benefactors of the Rui Faction had indeed promptly accepted the invitation to a conference address from Rui himself, but his words no longer mattered all that much.
