385. The goodwill that sprouts in the exchange of words

My father checked his wristwatch.

“Are we done talking already? It hasn’t even been 10 minutes yet?”

“I’m in a bad mood.”

“ah……!”

As if he had expected this, my father came over to me without saying a word and hugged me tightly.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

It was a sad face.

Grandfather, who had been looking worried next to father, also let out a long sigh.

“I was prepared for this to be a difficult situation.”

My grandfather gently patted me as I was held in my father’s arms.

“If Gulf Holdings owns 50% of Yukong’s shares, what other way is there?”

Grandfather tried hard to hide his sorry expression.

“Either I just got down on my knees and begged, or I shed tears of blood and accepted the loss. But it was still difficult to make it happen.

My grandfather pats my shoulder.

Grandfather closed his eyes tightly.

“My grandfather is the CEO of Taesung Group. That was the place I had to go. Even if I had to be humiliated, I had to take it. Even if I had to get on my knees, I had to get on my knees.”

With a face filled with a mixture of shame and self-reproach.

“It’s all my fault. I thought too easily and was too optimistic.”

Grandfather let out another long sigh that seemed to come from deep within his danjeon.

“I got cursed at. This old man really has no face.”

That was when.

“Let go of this… …, Whew Whew! Ah, let go of this, you little shits!”

It was President Shim’s angry cry.

Inside the room, English and Korean were mixed together, and the sound of thumping noises and footsteps were tangled together in a chaotic manner.

That didn’t last long.

“Eww!”

President Shim came rolling out of the room.

It was a disastrous front roll.

dump.

President Shim was sprawled out in the Taesung Hotel bar in an awkward position.

President Shim jumped up like a dragon.

His suit was rumpled and his shirt was frayed with several buttons missing.

President Shim snorted as he nervously pulled down the tie that was strangling him.

“I’m not stamping my seal! How many times do I have to tell you, you fucking XXs!”

It was the first time I saw President Shim look so angry!

People waiting for the president’s call, drinking cocktails and a glass of whiskey each.

The heads of conglomerates and senior officials at the Blue House opened their eyes wide.

“Did Taesung Group’s Shim Won-cheol swear?”

“How difficult was the negotiation?”

“It can’t be helped. Looking at the attitude of the Gulf people, inside there… … .”

Everyone glanced at President Shim with pitiful faces.

President Shim realized that everyone’s eyes were on him.

He blushed slightly with embarrassment and shook out his suit even more shamelessly.

Every time that happened, dust would fly up from the crumpled hem of her clothes as she rolled forward.

“I’m telling you, Gulf Coasters have really crappy manners!”

He picked up the typewriter that had fallen to the floor, and then picked up the briefcase that was half-empty with documents scattered about.

President Shim glared back fiercely, carrying a lot of luggage in both arms.

The Gulf people, who were looking embarrassed and defeated, flinched greatly.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to.”

“You just grabbed someone without permission, what? It wasn’t intentional? You’re talking nonsense!”

President Shim gritted his teeth.

“When you tore up the contract you wrote so desperately, now you want to write a new one? If you want to write a contract so badly, then write it yourself!”

President Shim grumbled.

“I said I’ll tear you apart as soon as you come in! Why are you trying to train me to be a shit dog? Are you my boss?”

“What do you mean, dog training? Since you came here to sign a contract, let’s sign the contract. Something like that, a constructive suggestion… … .”

“I like constructive suggestions! I told you there’s no work to do, right? Make lots of money!”

President Shim walked out, snorting in disdain.

Grandfather and father looked at President Shim with surprised faces.

“Our Sim Won-cheol is really pissed. How much did those guys scratch him to get like this?”

“Mr. Shim, thank you for your hard work. I am sorry and ashamed. Originally, I was supposed to be in that position.”

“No, Mr. Chairman, Mr. Vice Chairman. It’s a good thing the Vice Chairman didn’t leave. Those guys are just a bunch of shit.”

President Shim took out the medicine from his bosom and sucked it down.

“Since the young master has made up his mind, you two should not even look at that side from now on.”

“Have you made up your mind?”

“That’s why… … .”

President Shim opened his mouth to speak, but our eyes met.

I shook my head quietly.

Only then did President Shim realize that all the famous figures from the political and business world gathered at the Taesung Hotel bar were looking at him.

President Shim coughed slightly.

“Ahem, anyway, from now on, you won’t have to fight with those Gulf guys, that’s what I’m saying.”

“I see, that’s what happened.”

Both my father and grandfather’s faces darkened at the same time.

“I understand. Mr. Shim, you have done your best.”

“Yes, Mr. Shim. You must have suffered through all the swearing. What can’t be helped can’t be helped. What else can you do?”

“……yes?”

It only took a moment for President Shim to make a fool of himself.

When he realized that everyone gathered around him had the same expression on their face, President Shim waved his hand.

“I think everyone misunderstood. Actually, that’s not it… … .”

“What’s going on? Why is it so noisy outside?”

The chief of security at the Blue House also opened the door wide and came out.

“Have you all forgotten that Your Majesty is inside?”

The chief of security at the Blue House looked around with sharp eyes.

Grandfather and father with dark complexions, and President Shim with an embarrassed look on his face.

Even the Gulf people who were unable to hide their defeat and were muttering among themselves.

The chief of security at the Blue House flinched.

“Taeseong’s Brain, is there a situation where you need help?”

The chief of security at the Blue House pointed to the Gulf men with his thumb.

“Should we just throw those kids in the serving room and torture chamber?”

“Ah, that’s… … .”

“Or should we attach our children to it?”

The chief of security at the Blue House smiled meaningfully.

“I told you. If you don’t have a sense of humor, it’ll be hard to avoid accidents.”

It meant that he would take care of it quickly without anyone knowing.

Buzz, buzz, buzz. Buzz, buzz.

The anguish of famous figures in the political and business world spread like concentric circles.

America is this and that, blushing is that and that, accountability is that and the aftermath is that and that.

The chief of security at the Blue House knocked loudly on the room door.

“Quiet. I can’t hear you!”

With those words, the silence subsided.

Even though the hall was filled with dozens of people, it became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

“Tae-sung’s Brain, what should I do? Tell me.”

“I think today is the wrong day. We’ll go back and come up with a solution.”

“okay?”

dump.

At the same time, the sound of the Gulf negotiating team leader kneeling before my father was heard as loud as thunder.

“I will sign the contract!”

The Gulf negotiator shut his eyes tightly and shouted desperately.

“One hundred million dollars!”

“omg!”

The political and business world’s leading figures held their breath.

Once again, small murmurs spread out in concentric circles.

“You’re not saying you’re going to sell 50% of Yukong’s shares for $100 million, are you?”

“The person who boasted in front of His Excellency the President that he would not give a single penny less than $1 billion?”

All kinds of assumptions started to pop up.

“How much was the total share of Yugong’s fortune that was paid to His Excellency the President?”

“Even if we say that the stake given up by our group is only a few percent.”

“Wouldn’t the stakes entrusted to His Excellency the President’s close associates be significant?”

“Even if that’s the case, would it really be 40%? There are shares on the market.”

“Oh, so even if they sell 5%, they still have 45%.”

But the Gulf chief negotiator added definitively:

“I will transfer all 50% of Yukong’s shares, today, here, for $100 million! Is that okay?”

“Huh!”

Celebrities from the political and business world expressed their shock.

Even the chief of security at the Blue House and the head of the Central Intelligence Agency, who had sneaked out, could not hide their surprised expressions.

Surprise and agitation rippled like waves.

“What, what’s going on?”

“What are the Gulf people so sorry about that they are kneeling?”

“You’re going to hand over all that for a pittance, no, a shit price?”

“What kind of threats did you receive?”

Everyone turned to us in excitement.

To be exact, I’m talking about President Shim and my father.

Occasionally, there were people who would give my grandfather a noisy nod.

It seemed as if the head of Taesung Group would have been informed of this matter in advance.

“… … !”

A surge of strength entered my father’s arms as he held me.

There were a million question marks on his face, as if he couldn’t believe it.

I turned my head away, pretending not to know.

The chief of security at the Blue House smiled brightly.

“Is this really Taesung’s brain?”

The head of the central government’s face also softened.

“You never disappoint. His Majesty will be very pleased.”

A cheer of overwhelming joy erupted from the grandfather.

“Yu, 50% of Yukong’s shares for 100 million dollars!”

“What a windfall!” said the grandfather, excitedly, and quickly patted his father on the shoulder.

“Let’s go ahead. We can go straight ahead like this!”

All kinds of envy poured out on my grandfather.

“Taeseong is taking this much credit.”

“Chairman Cha, that would be really great. There wasn’t a refinery in Taesung anyway, right?”

“It’s amazing that we can acquire Yukong, which is worth 400 million dollars at market price, for just 100 million dollars.”

“But can you afford the acquisition fee of $100 million?”

“It’s not just a small amount of money, so it’ll be difficult to secure emergency funds… … .”

The conglomerate chairmen approached the grandfather, their mouths watering.

“It might be too much to eat alone, so how about sharing it?”

“Since Taesung has accomplished the task, he will take a bigger portion, and we will split it according to the ratio of the acquisition fee we paid.”

“I heard Gulf Saga is offering 100 million dollars right now. I’m telling you this because I’m afraid you might feel wronged if you miss this great opportunity because you don’t have money.”

It was a blatant proposal with its obvious implications.

So, even the grandfather who had been laughing out loud had no choice but to harden his expression.

“But there’s no way I can get $100 million today… … .”

The moment Grandfather tightly closed his eyes and was about to open his mouth, President Shim was faster.

President Shim placed both hands on his hips and shouted loudly.

“Oh, I said there’s nothing to do! How many times do I have to tell you not to stamp it!”

“Huh?”

Not only the chief of security at the Blue House, but even the head of the Central Intelligence Agency opened his mouth wide.

Not only the heads of conglomerates but also the vice ministers of each ministry were shocked and gasped in shock.

Everyone looked at us as if asking if we were in our right minds.

Especially towards CEO Shim, who was shouting at Baek.

“What did Shim Won-cheol eat wrong today? How could he refuse this?”

“You say you kicked the chamber pot when you were so full of luxury? Are you rejecting a windfall that will never come again?”

“I didn’t know Taesung would blow Yugong away like that.”

The heads of conglomerates simultaneously blinked.

Without anyone saying anything, everyone raised their hands and shouted.

“If Taesung refuses, we, the Three Emperors, will accept the offer!”

“We, Cheongwol, are also interested! We will offer you better conditions!”

“Give it to our Ilseong! We will make Yugong twice as big as it is now within 10 years!”

“There’s also Green Mountain! We’ve added generous amounts of money, totaling 120 million dollars!”

The Gulf chief negotiator shouted nervously.

“Shut up! I have no intention of doing business with you, so stop bothering me and get out!”

The Gulf people fell to their knees like dominoes and began to beg.

“Then how much is it, how much is it?”

“How long will it take for you to take back what you said earlier?”

I looked back at the Gulf people while quietly being held by my father.

“Goodwill sprouts from the sincerity that flows back and forth.”

Understanding what I meant, the Gulf people cheered.

“Viva!”

“What are you doing, Captain? If you want to gain favor, you have to show sincerity first!”

The Gulf negotiator shut his eyes tightly and shouted desperately.

“Okay, $25 million! Do as you wish!”

“… … !”

People were so shocked that they couldn’t even breathe.

Even the heads of conglomerates who had been acting as if they would auction off their assets and receive a reward were left dumbfounded.

My grandfather, my father, the chief of security at the Blue House, and even the chief of the Central Intelligence Agency were all speechless.

“A billion dollars turned into 25 million… … .”
