Son of a Conglomerate at the Highest Level

＜ Year-end night (3) ＞

President Woo Kwang Construction raised his voice even more.

“I heard Taesung Construction President Cha Yoon-seong visits bank presidents to sell land? A lot of domestic construction work has been delayed, and the construction of Taesung Construction’s apartment is completely at a standstill.”

President Woo Kwang Construction confidently exclaimed.

“Construction has stopped, so if the bill that needs to be blocked now comes back, it will only take a moment for Taesung Construction to fall. After all, you are saying that you may not be able to proceed even if you win the construction of subway line 2 because you have no money!”

He said raising both fists.

“Excluding Taeseong, Woo-Kwang is the only construction company that can easily complete the construction of subway line 2! These days, Wookwang apartments are selling like hot cakes! So, we are very well funded and good!”

Someone snorted at the words of the president of Woo Kwang Construction.

“Isn’t the construction of subway line 2 difficult to even begin without the support of underground civil engineering technology?”

“Unlike Taesung, Woogwang has almost no experience in underground civil engineering.”

President Woo Kwang Construction confidently exclaimed.

“It’s not that you can’t do it without the skills and experience. If there is no road, you can make it, learn the skill, and accumulate experience. Our Woo-gwang has that level of ability!”

Grandpa chuckled.

“You have that much ability, so why did you offer me a joint bid?”

“That, with the intention of creating a great history by joining forces with those who will become in-laws…”

Did that happen?

For me, it was a golden age.

So it’s more irritating.

‘Who wants to jointly bid? The construction of subway line 2 is my father’s responsibility, and I’m pushing it.’

But I’m only a seven-year-old child.

If the grandfather and father join hands with Woo-gwang, they have no way to object.

‘What the hell did the president of Woo Kwang Construction seduce you?’

My head started spinning tight.

I thought of suggestions that the president of Woo Kwang Construction could make.

But mostly it was trivial stuff.

‘If you wielded a whip instead of a carrot…’

My grandfather and father were people who cared about their families.

If the president of Woo Kwang Construction had used his family as an excuse to threaten him, it might work.

Just in case, I looked at my grandfather and father with anxious eyes.

“Our Taesung is not doing joint bidding! It is a single bid!”

But Grandpa said coolly.

“Everyone, our Taesung has signed a technical agreement with the Japan Transportation Agency and the Japan Islands Expressway Traffic Authority! Advanced civil engineering technology can be applied to the construction of subway line 2!”

People opened their eyes wide.

Even so, Taeseong was evaluated as being several orders of magnitude ahead of Woo-gwang in terms of underground civil engineering technology, experience, and performance.

However, it was said that if the advanced technology agreement with Japan was completed, it would be technologically far ahead.

I just smiled.

‘That’s right. Why did I give you the bribe ledger in advance?’

I was told to write it like this

I believed that Secretary Kim would be able to use the bribery ledger to entangle the other person.

‘But does the fact that the president of Woo Kwang Construction came out so confidently mean that there is a possibility of a double agreement with Japan?’

Secretary Kim said he left it alone?

‘Once we have a technical agreement, we should quickly get the Japanese home. Couldn’t he have let him come into contact with Woo-gwang?’

If so, this is disappointing.

Could it be that I overestimated Secretary Kim?

Woo Kwang Construction CEO also shouted without losing.

“The technology agreement is a matter based on the Korea-Japan technology agreement, so if we win the Ugwangdo subway construction, we can win Japan’s cooperation!”

“I heard those Japanese spit on and say that they will not have any business with Woo-gwang from now on? Your company’s VP heard it clearly, so you can go and ask him!”

Unbeknownst to me, a laugh came out.

‘What the hell are you talking about so loudly on a completely messed up topic? Unless there is a corner to believe in.’

The laughter that had been pouring out just stopped.

‘A corner to believe in?’

At first glance, he is the president of Woo Kwang Construction, who seems mean and cunning.

When a non-idiot shouts loudly, everyone has their own reasons.

‘What is it? It is a corner that the president of Woo Kwang Construction believes in. Judging from the atmosphere, I don’t think he’s the chairman of Wookwang Group.’

The reason why you can shout loudly even if the technical agreement with Japan is broken.

The reason why you can do that even though you proposed a joint bid.

I’ve been curious about that

At that time, high-ranking political figures shed a low laugh.

They were the ones who gnashed their teeth after they got burned while accepting the bribe given by Woo-gwang.

“I would have thought that Woo-gwang would even look bad at a subject with no skills.”

“You couldn’t manage the books properly, and you couldn’t manage your subordinates properly. How on earth did the technical negotiations with Japan come out like this?”

“Even if Woo-gwang wins the subway project, he can’t even touch it because he doesn’t have civil engineering skills?”

The president of Woo Kwang Construction grounded his teeth.

“Is the underground facility civil engineering technology only Japan has? Whether you’re looking for it in Europe or the US, we’ll take care of it! But money matters are different! Doesn’t the money you don’t have fall from the sky?”

“Have you not heard yet? Our Taeseong has a patron.”

People nodded in agreement.

“I heard you gave away 3 billion in cash?”

“That’s 3 billion! When you look at the scale of subway construction, it still seems far short! On the other hand, our Woo-gwang…!”

It was then.

“Three billion! I will invest in Taesung Construction!”

It was Master.

Someone recognized Master and shouted.

“Myeongdong Peregrine Falcon!”

“The investment genius who swept all the nice apartments in Gangnam?”

“I heard that it is a legend in the underground finance world that there is not a single investment destination that has been paid for and lost so far. Wasn’t that a rumor?”

This was Master’s reputation and the trust he had built up.

-Taesung Construction, the investment destination chosen by the master who is an investment genius!

That was the reason I asked Master to be a wind catcher.

Master said while gently fanning the fan.

“I am willing to invest more if you give me the money for the construction of subway line 2, instead of asking for Taesung Construction’s share or usury. 2 billion more. So a total of 5 billion!”

Since the contract was not written, Master must have wanted to nail it down officially.

I wanted this situation right now.

It was another reason why I deliberately left no traces of backdoor dealings.

It’s the law of a person who regrets using a child.

“Chevy?”

“okay. If Taesung Construction wins the subway project, don’t they cover the lack of funds for the construction?”

“Then you say that Chevage is unconditionally the land near the subway station?”

People’s eyes lit up.

In places where the subway passes, the price of land usually jumped several times, or even dozens of times, during the same period compared to places where there is no subway.

They had already witnessed the success of the subway line 1 chavage business.

‘It’s easy to find land for the subway station, but who wouldn’t be tempted?’

From real estate speculation to people who are eager to invest in financial technology, as well as politicians who want to launder political funds, all turned their heads.

Also, business people who want to build and sell shopping malls near subway stations, and high-ranking officials who want to fill their safes without any hassle other than bribes, also pricked their ears.

“Are you saying that if you invest in Taesung Construction, you can get a settlement?”

“Cheviji is set at a price when land is cheap. If buildings start to be built near the subway station, the price of land will inevitably rise.”

“The rate of return would be much higher than buying an apartment in Gangnam or land as a candidate site for development, right?”

The staggering horsehead raised his hand.

“I also invest 5 billion won!”

If you put out the investment money, you will be able to take a look at the interest on gambling debt.

Secretary Kim robbed the entire safe while touring the casino and brought 3 billion in cash!

The remaining 2 billion were gambling debt documents and all real estate and personal property tied to the house.

“I don’t need Chevy! Instead, interest is generous!”

It was the sound of asking for a generous amount of interest.

Because the one-year interest rate of 67.8% was applied.

People looked at the horse head and breathed in again.

“Until the horse’s head?”

“No, I heard that nobleman never loses in a money game…”

“I never thought he would refuse to pay high wages at a gambling hall and say he would pour money into the construction of Taesung Construction’s subway line 2.”

“Huh, you’re betting hotly. Is Taesung Construction really going to win the construction of subway line 2?”

People’s eyes sparkled even more.

Everyone wants to side with the victor and share the spoils.

Taesung Construction smelled the smell of bean curd that would spill out after winning the construction of subway line 2.

As if they had waited, even Jongno’s gold tooth and Ms. Bang joined in.

“I will invest 3 billion! If possible, I would like the subway to pass near Jongno.”

“I am two billion! Instead, I can choose what I want from the chavage, right?”

It was an investment that was already promised in advance.

500 million for each subway station.

It was after Jongno’s gold teeth and Kkachisan’s Mrs. Bang promised to hand over 6 and 4 subway station information, respectively.

“Golden teeth in Jongno and Mrs. Bang from Mt. Magpie?”

“Do the giants who are said to be driving Korea’s underground finance decide to invest by rushing in first?”

“Unbelievable! Every time I went to borrow money, I threw away all my pride and crawled on my knees, but someone ran all the way here saying they didn’t even need a usury belt!”

People saw their grandfather and father.

My father laughed happily with a slightly bewildered expression, and my grandfather clenched his fists with a flushed face.

“Father, the investment is 18 billion won!”

“okay! It couldn’t be better!”

The presidents of affiliates of the Taesung Group, who had gathered around the grandfather, could not hide their joy.

“Chairman, it went really well!”

“Looks like the sky is helping our Taeseong!”

“How can you attract such a huge amount of investment!”

Grandpa muttered in disbelief.

“Now I can do subway construction without worrying about money. Things work out just the way you want them to. Could you be this lucky? It feels like being possessed by a ghost.”

However, the president of Woo Kwang Construction shouted out with a saddened expression.

“Who the hell brought the moneylenders here! Since when did the year-end night degenerate into a mess with back alley bastards playing money?”

The sudden splash of cold water made the hall quiet.

Due to the nervous gestures of the President of Woo Kwang Construction, the musicians stopped the ensemble and the singing of the first singer was stopped.

Jongno’s golden teeth laughed.

The yellow gold teeth, set in like corn, glistened uncomfortably in the light.

“You speak really sadly. We were definitely invited too. This year-end night is a charity bazaar to help the less fortunate. Is there any reason why we shouldn’t be invited?”

Ms. Kkachisan Bang also added a word.

“sure. We don’t have money, we don’t have people, we don’t have the ability? Do we know how to help the less fortunate?”

The horse’s head moved forward with a twitch of the corner of its mouth.

“Hey, what are you doing? You’re not so mean?”

Pom, who rolled up his sleeves, was on the verge of overturning the table and causing a commotion.

I clicked my tongue a little.

‘That guy’s temperament is real. If that guy rolls his eyes and runs amok here, he’ll get sick.’

It doesn’t matter if they invest in Taesung Construction or cause a little brawl.

But causing a commotion is a different story.

There is bound to be talk about how an unrecognized uninvited guest was able to enter this far.

If you look at it like that, the position of President Oh of Hyunmoo Construction, who tolerated it, will be embarrassing.

Tae-seong will be in trouble as the main culprit who ruined the year-end night by accepting the invitation.

“Secretary Kim.”

“yes.”

Secretary Kim immediately strode toward the horse head.

He had just picked up a chair and found Secretary Kim.

“Korean Horse Association, Ttukseom Seoul Racecourse, Bank Branch Manager.”

“…!”

At the three words mentioned by Secretary Kim, the head immediately calmed down.

He cleared his throat as he brushed off the cloth covering the chair.

“Kuhm!”

Low, very small whispers began.

The president of Woo Kwang Construction snorted.

“Look at this. Those who play with money can’t tell the difference between where to wear and what not to. this is won It looks like the wholesale price is making us fall precipitously.”

Jongno Gold Tooth snorted, and Ms. Kkachisan Bang shook the invitation card.

“Whether it’s a white cat or a black cat, it’s enough if you catch mice well, and whether it’s white money or black money, if you’re good at donations, isn’t it enough?”

“They said they came to pay after receiving an invitation, so why would non-owners come forward and give them face to face? Whose money is money, whose money is sh*t?”

Woo Kwang Construction CEO burst into laughter.

“It’s a position that no matter how much money you have, you can’t fit in. What are these hotel security guards doing! Without dragging out the authors quickly!”

At that time, the owner of the Hyunmoo Hotel and CEO Oh of Hyunmoo Construction took up the microphone.

“Everyone who comes in with an invitation is my guest. Please be polite, starting with President Kim.”
