[116] Lightly jab 2
But can eating pheasants and eating eggs be smooth?
When the land purchase in Susaek-dong was in full swing, Jin Young-jun threw a glass of wine and ran home at the call of his father, Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki.
My heart skipped a beat when I saw my father’s expression as cold as ice.
The atmosphere was unusual enough to make me feel fortunate that I didn’t drink too much.
He quickly racked his brain to see if he had made any mistakes lately, but nothing came to his mind.
The ominous sign was the wife sitting side by side with her father in the living room.
Surely you didn’t complain to your father about staying out often?
It’s not that kind of a clumsy wife. Didn’t you say it with your own mouth? That said, there will never be any personal contact.
“What are you doing these days?”
A subdued voice This is a bit serious. He is the one who screams loudly when he gets angry…
“There is nothing special. Why is that…?”
“I heard that you were going around to buy land, is that true?”
In an instant, the faces of the people involved in this incident passed through Jin Young-joon’s head.
What kind of bastard would have a mouthful?
“Why can’t you answer me? that’s right? Or is it a rumor?”
“Oh father. First, I will explain.”
“explanation? Aww. So it’s not a groundless rumor, right?”
Jin Yeongjun had never thought of being married as a blessing as he is at this moment.
If it had been before marriage, I would have started a conversation after blowing a fight. As the daughter-in-law watched, the father’s trembling hand did not fly away.
“good night. Start with an explanation. Let’s hear if it’s plausible, and let this father judge.”
“Did I tell you that Do-joon met and talked well?”
“okay. Did he show a lot of crush on you? We also had a spirited match.”
“yes. That’s the story from there.”
Jin Yeongjun reiterated the story of that night in detail. The difference is that I added the story of Digital Media City and land, which I had omitted last time.
When the explanation was over, Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki’s expression looked even colder.
“So, according to your explanation, you are saying that you are pouring money into the ground believing only what Dojunie said, right?”
“no. I checked and moved. What my uncle said when he was inaugurated and Dojunie told me once again. Finally, I double-checked with the Seoul Metropolitan Government officials. Development is certain.”
Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki suddenly looked at his daughter-in-law and said.
“Saeah, when did you know about this?”
“yes?
This is the first time Hong So-yeong has seen her father-in-law look so angry. It was already too late to pretend not to know. It was because he could tell without a mirror that his complexion was already pale.
“Did you buy the land with money?”
“…yes.”
“Do you believe him?”
The husband was biting his lip at the fingertips of the father-in-law pointing.
“yes. But I also checked, Father.”
“Did you turn around your own reporters? Did the reporters confirm it?”
“yes. Everyone who should know already knows. Susaek-dong, Eunpyeong-gu, Sangam-dong, Mapo. I’ve settled on these two places. Land prices are rising little by little.”
“Where did you get your money from? Did you borrow it from your parents’ house?”
“…yes.”
I just received it, I didn’t borrow it, but I nodded my head.
“Now you know your family. Then the in-laws’ house would have bought a lot of land.”
I didn’t confirm it, but I couldn’t raise my head because I couldn’t have known that my father-in-law was right.
What is the difference between stealing money from your in-laws and giving it to your parents?
This is an age when information becomes money.
“The two of you are really… a match made in heaven. Tsk tsk.”
When Jin Young-joon felt his father’s pitiful gaze looking down on him, the repulsive feeling he had suppressed came out.
“father. That’s correct information. And… isn’t it new to make money from development information? It’s hard to understand why you’re upset.”
“This guy… but!”
match-!
Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki’s hand, which he had endured, went up. Being a married adult, the decision not to fend for himself was of no use to his stupid son.
“This child. What money did you buy the land with? I got a loan using my personal assets as collateral. If I had finished at this level, I would have passed without knowing it.”
Jin Young-joon closed his eyes and frowned.
‘Damn, I got caught.’
“You even ate the company’s money… from dozens of subsidiaries, didn’t you? Did you pay for the construction in advance? Is that a sane thing to do!”
Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki couldn’t bear to raise his voice.
It’s not once or twice that everyone in this family took out the company’s money and spent it like money.
I myself have done it dozens of times, and I still do it over and over again.
But the case of the son is different. You have to skip as much as you can afford, but the amount of money you figured out is tens of billions of won.
If something goes wrong and the money is lost, it is embezzlement in the worst case.
However, the expression of the son with his head bowed turned Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki inside out. The protruding muzzle tells the story of this guy.
The price of land is rising, and you can make up for it with the sale profit, but what is the problem?
“Listen. Doesn’t your grandfather know what I know? But you don’t know why he didn’t say anything?”
“Ha Grandpa too?”
His pride was hurt when he saw his son fearing his grandfather more than his father, but he couldn’t show it. Isn’t it natural to be afraid of those in power?
“If the end is good, he is the kind of person who doesn’t take issue with it. Aren’t you the kind of person who turns a blind eye to messy processes?”
Seeing his son’s expression brighten, he seemed full of confidence that the speculation would succeed.
“The water has already been spilled, so I won’t say anything more. But don’t come to me and beg me to save you when the end is not good. You are responsible.”
“Don’t worry. It must have a splendid ending.”
I sighed when I saw my son beating his chest and expressing his confidence.
When I was younger, I had a picture of myself in front of my eyes.

The ‘New Seoul Town Development Initiative’, also known as the Digital Media City project, was quietly announced by the Seoul Metropolitan Government, but the response from the construction industry was extremely loud and enthusiastic.
It is to build a large building that will be tightly packed on a site of 170,000 pyeong. A construction site that won’t stop for the next 10+ years.
Coincidentally, the son-in-law of the chairman of Sunyang held the hilt, so the construction industry could not carelessly give out business cards.
At least, Daehyeon Construction was fighting for public opinion, running in all directions to occupy a seat.
“I even had brain surgery, but I didn’t get a visit from the hospital, so they say it’s a lucrative job, so why don’t you call me for a meal? Isn’t that too revealing?”
“Younggam-taeng has a long name line. I had to die in the operating room, but it’s a pity. haha.”
“Should I go first? How are you going to endure the rest of your days alone because you’re lonely? I don’t get bored when I have a country. haha.”
When Chairman Jin held out his cup, Daehyun Group Chairman Joo Young-il gave a puzzled look.
“Can I have a drink?”
“I should be content with watching President Joo drink. Is it like this?”
“Just write. If you see ugly things, you will lose your taste.”
When Chairman Jin took off his hat and tried to show the surgical scars, Chairman Joo jumped up and waved his hand.
“Anyway, about that car accident. Did you catch the real culprit?”
Chairman Joo, who was bringing the glass to his lips, asked like a passing horse.
“Your ears are bright. How else did you know that?”
Chairman Jin frowned. Even the police shut their mouths, but Dae-hyeon’s information power could not escape.
“Just pick it up and distribute it evenly. That’s comfortable.”
Chairman Joo pretended not to hear and spoke nonsense, but there is no way he could not understand. Just as he suspected his son, Chairman Joo seemed to have already guessed the cause of the accident.
“So you split everything up?”
Chairman Joo Young-il has almost completed the process of inheriting the Daehyun Group. Considering the birth order and ability of the children, the series was separated without a big crowd. Of course, I keep the name Daehyun.
“Do I have many sons?”
“I am proud! I should have only ridden once. What kind of woman did you reveal so much?”
Chairman Joo had seven sons. The seven sons are all also from three women.
“I was living without it, and suddenly I got money, so I got a woman. haha.”
Chairman Joo showed a shy smile, but he was not ashamed.
“It’s okay to push one guy. If you share it, it’s obvious that you’ll fight to get it all after you leave for the underworld. It’s like making the children cut each other to make their father feel comfortable.”
Chairman Jin scolded him as if he was displeased, but Chairman Joo did not take it seriously.
“That’s their problem. It’s not something I’ll look down on from the underworld, so what does it matter if we fight or not?”
“A nasty old man. Eh.”
Chairman Joo, who had been drinking, was silent for a while while holding a sashimi. It was Chairman Jin who broke the silence.
“Don’t pay attention to what our son-in-law is doing. It is not ours.”
“then? Did you fall for it too?”
“okay. You have to look into the eyes of the government. This time, it’s the turn of the tough companies. We can make a living without it, but companies lined up to revitalize with the project. they will take it The Blue House knows that too. That’s why permission was easily given.”
Chairman Joo emptied his glass with a sad expression.
“I’ll have to get your permission to pick up this, even if it’s worthless.”
“If you know, don’t panic and wait. I’ll take care of it in moderation, so don’t make a fuss.”
When Chairman Jin spoke as if he was patronizing, Chairman Joo put down his glass and showed a pleasant smile.
“I will pay for the drink today.”
“Of course it should.”
Chairman Joo looked at Chairman Jin’s expression before opening his mouth.
“By the way, your son-in-law. There are rumors that he is running for president after serving as mayor of Seoul for four years. Are you pushing me?”
“What about the presidential election! He’s my wife, he’s a puppet. The Blue House is unimpressed with a great man who can’t even get a meal without his wife!”
“What does it matter? After all, the people vote. It’s not an empty dream if you get popular through the press. If you prepare step by step from now on, the chances are pretty high.”
Chairman Jin shook his head excitedly.
“That will never happen. Four years of market play will end his political life. But why would Chairman Joo show interest in other people’s chores?”
“I’m asking just in case. Wouldn’t it be a big deal if the son-in-law of Sunyang Group became president? It’s because we can’t do anything once we start working for Daehyun Group.”
“Hehe. If that guy becomes president, Daehyun will be second. The first one will be a cruiser.”
“As expected. Your daughter is not greedy either.”
“Because it’s the only daughter, it’s too hot. It’s because I raised it. I am too greedy.”
“Then I want you to break it up and share it!”
At Chairman Joo’s criticism, Chairman Jin only smiled bitterly.
“Stop whining and get up.”
“oh my. You’ve been holding on to the frail old man for too long. go first I have someone else to meet here.”
“If you give everything you have to your children, you’ll just be an old man in the back room. Don’t talk to me.”
“If you are alive, shouldn’t you work? I have to pay for the meal.”
Chairman Joo swept Chairman Jin’s back once as he left the room.
“It’s sad when you’re old and sick. Take good care of yourself.”
Chairman Jin glanced at Chairman Joo, who was giving him a blessing, and nodded.
Upon confirming that Chairman Jin had left, Chairman Joo Young-il opened the door of the next door where he had eaten with Chairman Jin and went in.
“Oh, I made Mayor Choi, who is busy, wait too long. I’m sorry.”
Seoul Mayor Choi Chang-je did not move with a firm face even though Chairman Joo greeted him.
