[099]Inescapable fate 3
“The day after tomorrow, they said they were going to Gunsan at dawn.”
“Gunsan? Are you sure?”
“yes. He said he was going quietly without notifying his secretary…”
“Are you going alone?”
“I don’t know that far.”
Chairman Jin’s driver stood with his hands together in a respectful posture.
“When did you say you were going to Gunsan?”
“You said it when you were on your way back from Yeouido.”
“Oh Se-hyeon in Yeouido?”
“yes. It was when you met Oh Se-hyun.”
“Was Do-joon there by any chance?”
“Until then… I waited outside.”
“okay. look out.”
The driver picked up the thrown envelope and quietly withdrew.
After the knight withdrew, I waited for a while and finally picked up the phone.
The person quietly told the two of them about this and hung up.
The two people who were contacted were shocked by the name Jin Do-jun and did not forget to thank the person who informed them of this information.

The beginning of exit polls in Korea was the first nationwide local election in 1995. MBC and Gallup Korea announced their prediction results at around 6:15 based on telephone polls, and all 15 regional government heads were elected.
Unusually, pre-exit polls are famous for predicting the results of the presidential and local elections relatively accurately, but missing only during the general elections for members of the National Assembly.
Election day, June 4, was quiet in contrast to the tumultuous campaign up to the previous day.
The person who rides the fastest today is probably Jin Seo-yoon.
For her husband’s election as mayor, she did all sorts of things that she would never have dreamed of doing in normal times.
After doing a rough job every day, I relieved the stress on my husband, but when the election day came, I regretted not having done something worse.
When I heard the story that Go Gyeong-yeol’s wife shaved the backs of aunties in the local public bath, I was dumbfounded and snorted, but now I thought I could do a body scrub.
In the afternoon, I made up my mind while waiting for the exit polls at the elections office.
As if believing in the election, her husband is tapping the shoulders of the campaign workers and party officials and praising them for their hard work.
Jin Seo-yoon frowned as if he didn’t like this. I expected an attitude that would not relax until the results came out, but my husband always let loose at the end. Expectations are ahead and giving up is quick. We have to do big things together in the future, but it came out with a sigh.
Because there were so many people together, I couldn’t nag and smile only with a gentle smile.
“Candidate. We start now.”
At the cry of the election campaigner, everyone started staring at the TV.
6:15.
A countdown began on the screen, and when the number zero ended, a person’s name appeared.
『Preference No. 2 Choi Chang-je 42.1%』
At that moment, a shout of “Wow” resounded in the office.
Jin Seo-yoon closed her eyes with her hands clasped together.
We finally got over the first pass.

“Congratulations. Uncle.”
– Do Joon-ah. I will never forget your balls. Let’s keep working hand in hand in the future.
“Your uncle is going to take good care of you? Well, I am satisfied that the mayor of Seoul is my uncle. haha.”
Still, Eun-hye is the one who never forgets. The exit poll results were shown on TV, and less than 30 minutes later, I received a phone call to thank me. This isn’t shameless enough.
Of course, there wouldn’t be a side of securing a solid fund for the next election.
My uncle also did not forget to express his gratitude to Oh Se-hyeon. There is even a contract that funded the campaign, so it is only natural that he would hesitate.
He listened to the speech of the elected mayor of Seoul, but Oh Se-hyeon’s expression did not ease.
“Damn, even though I won, I’m not happy.”
Oh Se-hyun nervously turned off the TV.
“What are you going to do? Do you want to do what Grandpa says? Or would you like to take a hit?”
“I’ll twist it one more time. Fawning and flattering…. But if it doesn’t work, they ram into it.”
“When I insinuated it to the executives of the construction company, they lowered their tail.”
“They are Grandpa’s limbs.”
Oh Se-hyeon let out a long sigh and bit his lower lip.
“Looks like we got hit. I reached out my hand because I believed in Chairman Jin, but I ended up handing over Daeah Construction altogether. It is a mistake.”
“At the time, it was the best choice. Without the people of Sunyang Construction, it would have been impossible to take control to this extent.”
Thanks to those people, I was able to recover my hidden slush funds and get out of unnecessary business. The net business departments were left behind, and the departments that only cut costs were cut cleanly.
They were indispensable in the initial setting.
“uncle. Let’s not regret it even if we revisit the past. In the worst case, you can pass all the DMC projects and attach Daeah Construction to Sunyang. I think the loss is the tuition fee. That’s how you learn.”
“If you learned something, I’m fine too. But that’s all it took to get stabbed in the back.”
“I learned something. don’t trust anyone Hehe.”
Despite what he said, he still believes in his grandfather. No matter how huge the DMC business is, they are not greedy enough to take the whole thing out of their grandchildren’s hands without pulling out their hair.
Maybe it’s the idea of giving it back to me after making this business a success. if you think it’s good.
“I don’t think the election results will be any different from exit polls… I’ll go see my grandfather. If there is anything special, we will contact you right away.”
I woke up with a heavy heart.
I think I will be the first grandson to dedicate the table to my grandfather who worked hard.
* * *
“Did you talk to your uncle?”
“yes. After the investigation results came out, they contacted me right away.”
“Right away? How soon?”
“About 30 minutes?”
Grandpa laughed.
“When the results came in, your uncle called me within a minute. They said thank you for everything because of me. I didn’t do anything. haha.”
I didn’t do anything, so I quickly thanked him. If I had made up my mind to do it, it would have been easy to make my uncle fall.
It is possible to drown it with the power of just one person, but as if many people are needed to rescue it, it is right to be grateful for the person who tackles it while running.
Especially if the tackler is someone with tremendous power.
“grandfather.”
“OK.”
“Because I was scared enough already? Even if you don’t tell me that my uncle is acting according to my grandfather’s will, I know it well.”
“You are quick to notice. Then will you do as I say?”
“Before I tell you what I think, let me ask you one question.”
“Say yes.”
“Are you really coveting the Mapo Project? Or do you mean something else?”
I didn’t have a way either, so the only thing was to ask honestly.
“You mean something else? What else do you mean?”
“I don’t know that either.”
“Look at that. When I think about it, I can’t come up with an answer. no other meaning Because of the IMF, our Sunyang also dried up the seed of money. You have to do whatever comes your way.”
“Did you remove the rice bowl of your beloved grandson?”
“you?”
“yes?”
Grandpa put his chin on his chin and began to look at me with a funny expression.
“You lend me a billion dollars… no, you didn’t. Didn’t you swallow the car company by changing to won? Even if the exchange rate was a little convenient, wouldn’t it be reckless extortion?”
I was dumbfounded and no words came out. Could it be that he is trying to pay it back without forgetting what happened then?
“grandfather!”
“Hey. My ears will fall off.”
“Are you serious?”
“then? don’t be sincere The group’s controlling stake in the car… the loss was heavy. I need to make up for it this time.”
I couldn’t think of anything to refute.
Using the power of the dollar, I took a lot. Of course, it was also possible because of Grandpa’s great concessions and consideration.
This time it’s Grandpa’s turn.
Grandfather’s influence In the construction industry, Oh Se-hyun and I are mere amateurs. Isn’t it natural to try to make a lot of money using this?
“Don’t be too embarrassed. Even if Sunyang Construction becomes the main body of the business, I will take care of it for you.”
“How much is duduk?”
“Hmm, let’s see…. So that Daeah Construction can pay off some of its debts and settle overdue salaries.”
“Specifically.”
“At least 30% of the overall construction will be done by Dae-ah.”
A full-scale outline has already emerged. If it’s 30%, it’s worth saying that it’s not a lot of money, but it’s a lot.
Looking at the right figures coming out of the grandfather’s mouth at once, it must be that the executives of Daeah Construction are reporting to the grandfather from time to time.
I felt betrayed, but I had no intention of kicking them out. Because they are the people I need when I take over Sunyang Construction.
“You won’t give me any more, will you?”
“Stop being greedy. Don’t you know that 30% is enough?”
If he backs down, the media empire his father will build will be in vain. Since making money is not the purpose, you cannot receive an offer even if 30% is sufficient.
Looking down at his grandfather’s eyes, he no longer hesitated.
“grandfather. I’m really sorry…”
“You’d better think twice before saying that.”
My grandfather raised his hand to interrupt me and gave a stern warning. But it was too late to back down.
“I’ve been thinking about it since yesterday, but it hasn’t changed. It’s hard to give up on this one. Even if my decision goes against my grandfather, I’ll give it a shot. sorry.”
“Are you serious? Are you sure you won’t regret it?”
I feel like sparks fly in my grandfather’s eyes as he glares at me. It felt like the blood was draining from my body, but I was determined.
“I won’t regret it if I don’t get a single penny from DMC. And I won’t even resent my grandfather. It’s all thanks to my grandfather that I came here anyway.”
“Are you serious about that?”
“yes. But… if everything is taken away, understand if you don’t contact your grandfather for a few days. I think it’s going to squeak a little. Hehe.”
I wanted to show a relaxed side even if I was forced to.
Gao must be saved so that he doesn’t look like a man?
“That seems a little small for a threat. You mean you won’t even call to say hello? haha.”
“yes. But I will try not to exceed a week.”
Grandpa’s laugh eased the tension.
I got up from my seat. Because you have to move diligently from now on. First of all, I have to hit the dandori from my aunt and uncle. I don’t know if it will go well.
“Do-joon.”
“yes.”
“Come back early tomorrow morning. Let’s go get some fresh air before fighting me.”
What is this again?
Seeing me flickering at the door without knowing why, my grandfather burst into a hearty laugh.

Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki rubbed his forehead while staring at the diagram reminiscent of complicated drawings.
“Am I currently the largest shareholder?”
“Except for the president, yes.”
“What if we secure a friendly stake? Can I stand up to my father?”
“It is difficult. It is impossible to secure management rights if we cannot succeed to the chairman’s stake.”
Seeing him shake his head tells me that it’s completely impossible.
Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki opened his mouth very carefully to the two lawyers standing by and reporting.
“If only. What will happen to the share structure when your father dies?”
The faces of the two lawyers turned white at the completely unexpected question.
