Yu Jong-tae walked with high spirits and majesty.

“Brother, I Jong-tae Yoo has successfully completed his mission and returned!”

“good job!”

I gave a thumbs up

Yoo Jong-tae clung to him like a puppy waiting for praise.

“Do you wonder how I got this invitation, Bocchan? Can I give you the details?”

“That’s Okay.”

I shared my sight with the grim reaper and watched them all.

But I can’t tell the truth outright.

“I believe in Manager Yoo. end!”

“Broken!”

Yoo Jong-tae, as if thrilled, put his hands together and twisted his body.

“I thought you would recognize my loyalty and ability! I really didn’t expect you to trust me this much!”

Somehow, it was a very burdensome look.

Mr. Cheol-gu, who had been chewing on the biscuits, spat out nonchalantly.

“Patience. I run an errand and go on a dirty campaign.”

“Yu-Yusera?”

“If anyone sees it, they would think that even after being dragged into the courtyard, they kept their mouth shut and were tortured to the brink of drowning.”

“…”

Yoo Jong-tae seemed to want to refute, but he glanced at me and bit his lip.

It was after I said that I didn’t have to tell you the full story of the incident.

“Let’s see. It will always be occupied, the loyal number one spot! I risked my life too!”

Yoo Jong-tae’s small talk to himself seemed full of ambition.

I like people with ambition!

* * *

After receiving the invitation, the first place I visited was Myeong-dong.

I looked up at a building located in a corner alley in Myeong-dong.

<Myeongdong Falcon Pawnshop>

It’s been a long time, no, you went there a few days ago?

But strangely, it feels like coming back here after a long time.

Yoo Jong-tae put his hand on his forehead and pretended to look at it while exclaiming, “Ohhh.”

“It’s been a long time here. At one time, I went in and out until the threshold was worn out. Is the owner of the first invitation, of course, the old Myeong-dong peregrine falcon?”

“yes.”

“I’ll go and deliver it right away!”

“no.”

I grinned.

“I will go myself this time.”

I have to give the invitation myself to Master.

To keep the promise I made then.

– Next time, I’ll come back with a gift that’s better than western snacks.

So I brought it.

A gift that Master will love!

Mr. Cheolgu looked at the pawnshop and scratched the back of his head.

“Huh, it’s been a while since I’ve been here.”

Everyone says it’s been a while?

Apart from Yoo Jong-tae, who worked under Secretary Kim, I would never have thought that even Mr. Cheol-gu had visited the peregrine falcon pawnshop.

Well, ordinary people come to pawnshops without knowing how cool they are.

with my daughter

“welcome.”

As always, a voice came from beyond the pawnshop’s bars.

He was a master.

Master raised her monocle and twitched her eyebrows.

“No, who is this?”

“Hello, old man? How have you been? I am Yoo Jong-tae, the 5th team leader of the Taesung Group Security Department. Do you remember?”

Yoo Jong-tae made a fuss and greeted them warmly.

“Oh, the old man has gotten younger. I heard that he made a lot of money by sweeping up a good Gangnam apartment, and Shin-soo became more clear.”

“Old man, it’s been a while. It sucks.”

Mr. Cheolgu scratched the back of his head and greeted awkwardly.

I put my hands together and bowed my belly button politely.

“hello.”

Master picked me out of the three of us.

“Little guest, why did you come this time? I don’t think I came here because I was being held as collateral.”

“that’s right.”

“Then why did you come to the pawnshop? Are you going to bring those humans and hold an auction here again?”

“That’s not it, I’m here to give you a present as promised last time.”

“gift?”

I politely set the invitation down on the pawnshop-barred counter.

The golden light of the invitation shimmered so brightly that it lit up the dark pawn shop’s cage.

“This is an invitation to the year-end night at Hyunmu Hotel.”

“What?”

Master’s eyes flashed.

It was like the eyes of a hawk that found its prey while flying in the sky.

“There’s no way an invitation to a year-end night would be sent to people in the shadows like us?”

Of course you will.

Because it was an event only for those who wield money, honor, and power in the South Korean social leadership.

It was the meeting of high society that was not allowed even to the clumsy nerd, of course.

“There is no way this invitation came to me for free. They say someone paid for it and brought it instead of me.”

“So it’s a gift.”

“Oh, thank you for this. But why do my ears hear the word bribe instead of gift?”

Yes, a gift is given from the heart without a price, but a bribe is given in hopes of a favor.

I can’t say that I don’t have any wishes while handing out the golden invitation.

But that’s up to Master’s decision.

It can be said that the result is a little different from soliciting bribes, in which you must pay for the money you received.

“The cost of obtaining an invitation must not have been easy. What can I do?”

“You can just attend the year-end night event. It is better if you decide to sponsor according to the purpose of the event.”

“support?”

Master tilted her head.

“Isn’t the original year-end night event a support group? I hate it because I feel like my pockets will be robbed helplessly if I go to a place like that.”

Master tapped the invitation with her fingertips.

“Somehow this place seems to smell like money, doesn’t it? Huh, I really don’t know the meaning.”

As expected, our master is quick to notice!

If it’s money, do you really catch it like a ghost?

“that’s right. To be honest, I’m thinking of handing over something worthwhile there.”

“Ooh!”

“By the way, the invitation is a gift, but this is a trade offer.”

“Then it is!”

Master waved the invitation with a sinister smile.

“I wondered why you brought this invitation yourself! Now the question is solved! It’s like this begging little guest.”

“I heard you smelled money in here? So, will you accept the invitation or not?”

“Let’s decide whether to accept the invitation or not after hearing your trade offer!”

Anyway, you’re trying not to lose as much as this.

Still, I laughed bashfully.

“This is a once in a lifetime deal you will never regret. Listen for a second.”

“OK.”

Master willingly lent me an ear.

Whisper whisper Each time my words continued, Master let out a gasp.

How many times have you heard that heck?

“hahahaha!”

Finally, Master burst out laughing.

“So, after all, did you hear me telling you to catch the wind?”

It was the reason I came to see Master in person.

‘A competent wind catcher is a must when driving people into a frenzy. In that sense, there is no more reliable wind catcher than Master.’

For those who know Master, Master’s existence as ‘a genius of investment who picks out only the money-making things with a hawk’s eye’ will be seen as a box office guarantee check.

“I can’t believe this is a trade offer from a seven-year-old.”

Master looked down at me with strange eyes.

“The offer is big, the reward is big, and the plan is even bigger. Where did this little boy come from? Wouldn’t you like to learn to work under me?”

You want me to go to the pawnshop for another 10 years?From noble mtl dot com

No way!

“Don’t say anything else. So what are you going to do? Would you like to attend the year-end night or not? Would you like to catch the wind or drink?”

“Go! Catch the wind! What kind of opportunity is this, of course you should seize it!”

Master’s sharp, straight eyes curved like half moons.

“Are you really going to give me one station for every 300 million?”

“If Taesung Construction wins the construction of subway line 2.”

“Nothing! From my point of view, Woo-gwang can never win the construction of subway line 2!”

“How is it that your words are different from last time?”

The last time I visited this pawnshop because I was short of 18 million won to buy a mansion in Hannam-dong.

Master and Secretary Kim had a conversation like this.

– To be honest, I covet the land near the subway station. But if you’re going to take 8 million won from me for that reason, you should have come from Woogwang, not you! isn’t it?

-Do you think that Woo-gwang has risen to a more advantageous position than our Tae-seong?

-of course. isn’t that true?

– It can’t be. Our Taeseong will win the construction of subway line 2 this time.

-Wouldn’t it be difficult? Woo-gwang is one step faster this time. I can hear the sound of roasting and boiling high-ranking officials up to here.

Master spoke in a voice as confident as that time.

“That’s the story before the bribery ledger of Wookwang Construction fell into Taeseong’s hands.”

At the story of the bribe ledger, Mr. Cheol-gu blinked in a daze.

“I know what that ledger is, whose hands it is in, and how I’m threatening with it, but you didn’t think I was stupid enough to predict Woo-gwang’s victory, right?”

The longer Master spoke, the more round Mr. Cheolgu’s eyes became.

The slow wriggling like a cow was a bonus.

“Besides, I heard that the president of Taesung Construction and all the incompetent executives were kicked out this time because their heads were cut off?”

Anyway, how fast is the information again?

I don’t know how you already know what happened yesterday.

Either that or not.

I pointed to the invitation.

“Everyone must have rolled their eyes and went on a rampage to find the owner of the anonymous blackmail letter, but thanks for keeping your mouth shut, I’m offering it at a cheap price.”

“cheap?”

“I intend to get it at a much higher price than the other owners of the invitations.”

“what? How expensive are you going to pay for that?”

“Just add a little more. One station per 500 million!”

“hahahaha! It’s good! that’s very good! I’m 300 million, but those guys are 500 million! No way, that’s how it should be!”

Master thumped his knee.

“I must make this happen to see them sick to their stomachs!”

Yes, this is our master.

He likes to benefit himself, but he prefers beating up his peers.

Master was excited and rolled up her arms.

“Do you know where they live? If you don’t know, are you willing to write down the address?”

“Do you think I set out to deliver invitations without knowing that?”

“also! I thought you would know Anyway, you’re a magical little guest?”

Don’t procrastinate here, go ahead and deliver the invitations right away.

So I quietly asked for it.

“If you’re going to catch the wind, can’t you give me one more service?”

“service? Curm! If it cost even one won, I rejected it in advance…”

“You want them to give you a lot of medicine by calling them one by one?”

“What?”

It was a time when people paid 10 won for a pay phone call.

Will Master return three calls?

I had no choice but to open my coin purse and pay the phone bill.

“If that’s the case, leave it to me! This is going to be so much fun! Ha ha ha!”

“…”

The salty master was excited and readily agreed.

How fast is the action force?

I called right away on the spot.

“Hey, talking head! I’m a Myeongdong peregrine falcon! Hear it and don’t be surprised. I just got a year-end night invitation!”

Click.

“…”

“…”

This is what the business is all about!

He said what he wanted to say and hung up the phone.

But the effect was certain.

Follow me! Follow me!

Watching the phone ring like crazy, Master giggled.

“Will you die from the medicine? Oh, the ten-year-old congestion is suddenly going down!”

Master laughed happily and clapped her palms together.

“Well then, where is the contract to hand over one station per 300 million… Huh?”

with my daughter

“…”

A group of little guests were already out of sight.
