Episode 140 Chicken Coop (4)

After receiving the note, Chairman Jang Gyeong-jun twitched his eyebrows.

And I knew very well what those eyebrows meant.

“I guess they thought I would attack Chairman Jang Kyung-jun if they received a note like this.”

“Are you sure Youngjun gave you this note?”

“That’s right. If you wish, you can do a fingerprint search. “Chairman Jang Young-jun’s fingerprints will be detected on the note.”

Chairman Jang Kyung-jun clenched his fist and crushed the note.

Then he opened his eyes wide and asked me a question.

“But couldn’t the contents of this note be true?”

“If that were the case, would I be here today? “The Taewoo Group’s information power goes beyond what the Chairman thinks.”

I knew this before I received this note.

I habitually checked the details and realized that Youngjun Jang was lying.

So, the moment I received the note, I thought he was doing something rude.

“I’m not ignoring the information power of the Taewoo Group, but there’s no way Youngjun could have moved so sloppily. “It is clear that he gave you this note after creating suspicious circumstances.”

“That’s right. “It is said that CEO Jang Soo-young, who was kicked out of Taewoo Construction, was offered the position of current construction president.”

“We’ve already found the CEO of Hyeonjae Construction. And I have no intention of appointing someone from Taewoo Construction as the president of Hyunjae Construction.”

“Chairman Jang Young-jun must have been joking in the middle.”

It could be said that Chairman Jang Young-jun and Rep. Yoon Hyeon-gil conspired to form a conspiracy.

However, Chairman Jang Young-jun was not in a position to appoint the current president of Construction at will.

“Why did Youngjun do that? “Are you really doing that to make me and you fight?”

“Don’t you think the Prince’s Rebellion is not over yet? “I guess they did this because they felt like if we fought each other, we could get something out of it.”

“Do you think Youngjun is behind Rep. Yoon Hyeon-gil?”

“It’s hard to say he was behind it. “Chairman Jang Young-jun is just using Rep. Yoon Hyeon-gil to instigate a fight.”

At first, I too was suspicious of the relationship between Jang Young-jun and Yoon Hyeon-gil.

However, the deeper we dug, the more we realized that the two were not colleagues in the same boat, and that Chairman Jang Young-jun did not support Yoon Hyeon-gil at all.

Even saying they would provide support was just a lie.

Now that Hyunjae Construction has been taken over by Chairman Jang Kyung-jun, how can he promise to be the president?

“Hey, I’m sorry. “I really didn’t know that Youngjun would do such a foolish thing.”

“It’s not for the chairman to apologize.”

“I will help in whatever way I can. “You didn’t just give me a note, did you?”

As expected, you are quick-witted.

There was no way I was taking time out of my busy schedule just to drive a wedge between my younger brother and me.

“All you have to do is show reality to CEO Jang Soo-young, who is dreaming of becoming the president of Hyunjae Construction.”

“I will announce the current president of Hyunjae Construction right now and publish an article saying that I will trust him to take over the position of president for at least five years. “Is this enough?”

“It is enough and overflowing.”

“But how do you plan to handle this matter?”

“Shouldn’t you give back what you received? “That way the same thing won’t happen again.”

“Does that include Youngjun?”

“I have no intention of fighting with Chairman Jang Young-jun. “One Rep. Yoon Hyeon-gil is enough.”

It was Chairman Jang Gyeong-jun who looked a little disappointed.

Who am I to fight with Chairman Jang Young-jun?

In the end, Chairman Jang Kyung-jun will see the benefit.

And even without my involvement, the current group led by Youngjun Jang was destined to collapse.

“One person who was elected to office for the fifth term was too greedy. “Are we no longer able to see that person in Yeouido?”

“Maybe so.”

When you step on it, you have to step on it firmly.

However, this does not mean that there was no way for Representative Yoon Hyeon-gil to survive.

I had the intention of letting him live if he volunteered to become a guard dog.

***

next day.

Chairman Kyung-Jun Jang kept his promise to me.

The inauguration ceremony for the president of Hyunjae Construction was held on a large scale, and he also made an official statement expressing his intention to trust and support the president who has been in office for at least five years.

“Director of Planning, I think I should meet CEO Jang Soo-young.”

“Are you speaking directly, Vice Chairman?”

“There won’t be any problems. “You’re probably half crazy with betrayal by now.”

“Then let’s find a quiet place.”

The head of the planning department left for a moment to contact CEO Jang Soo-young.

Less than 30 minutes later, I returned to the vice president’s office with good news.

“He said he wanted to meet right away. “The voice seemed very urgent.”

“Then we can have lunch together.”

“I’ll make a reservation for you at a very quiet restaurant.”

After finishing work in the morning, I headed to the restaurant.

He said he would make a reservation at a quiet restaurant, but it was the planning manager who made a reservation at a restaurant hidden in the mountains.

It was a restaurant specializing in boiled rice.

When I arrived, it was the restaurant owner who personally slaughtered the chicken and plucked its fur.

Meanwhile, CEO Jang Soo-young arrived at the restaurant late and approached me with an awkward gait.

“Boss Jang, it’s been a while. “I heard you’re having fun these days.”

“Oh, no.”

“It’s such a shame. “I was hoping that someone from Taewoo Construction would take office as president of Hyeonjae Construction, but Rep. Yoon Hyeon-gil said he was bluffing.”

President Jang’s eyes widened when Rep. Yoon Hyeon-gil’s name came up.

You probably didn’t know that a 5-term member of the National Assembly would lie.

In fact, Representative Yoon Hyun-gil did not lie. This happened because Chairman Jang Young-Jun manipulated the situation in the middle.

“It all happened because we were deceived by sweet talk.”

“Are you planning on apologizing? There’s no need for that. What has already happened is that an apology will make any difference. “It doesn’t change the fact that my grandfather has to stand in front of the prosecution’s photo line.”

“Is the Chairman being investigated by the prosecution?”

“of course. How can I get away with being accused of accounting fraud? “Well, nothing more will come out of the investigation, so at best it will end in a fine.”

President Jang Soo-young bowed his head.

As he was my grandfather’s right-hand man, he looked sad when he heard that my grandfather was being investigated by the prosecution.

But is it sad?

If he had those feelings, he wouldn’t have handed over the accounting fraud data to Rep. Yoon Hyun-gil.

“I really had no intention of doing that. Rep. Yoon Hyeon-gil only said that he would use it as a negotiation card.”

“Would you like to meet a politician once or twice? “You should have thought half of it was a lie.”

“I was stupid. “It really wasn’t my intention to harm the chairman.”

It was CEO Jang Soo-young, who even had tears in her eyes.

Now that I look at it, I feel a little sorry for it.

So I don’t know why he went to Taewoo Construction and committed such a scandal just to show his pride.

“Well, that’s it. Rep. Yoon Hyeon-gil seems to be thinking of taking a step back. What do you plan to do? “It is clear that they will accuse President Jang of providing false information, so you have to defend yourself.”

“Are you saying you’re going to blame me?”

“Why are you acting so innocent? Then, can Rep. Yoon Hyeon-gil take responsibility? He has raised his profile to a certain extent, so he will probably fall behind now. “He throws down some prey.”

“I am truly innocent. “I have never passed over false information.”

“That is something you should say to the prosecution, not me. But it won’t be easy to have a muddy fight with Representative Yoon Hyeon-gil.”

dump!

President Jang Soo-young bent his knees.

“Please save me. I will do whatever I can. “Please save me just once.”

“Do you see over there? It is said that when an important guest arrives, chicken raised with great care is served on the table. But there are more than 10 chickens in the chicken coop. Why was that chicken chosen?”

“… … I do not know.”

“I was chosen because I was a good guy. When the other chicken tried to grab him, he pecked with his beak and flapped his wings, but that chicken quietly accepted the owner’s hand. That’s why I ended up like that.”

You have to rebel to avoid becoming prey.

In order to survive, I had to do my best to move my beak and flap my wings.

“Are you telling me to peck at Representative Yoon Hyeon-gil?”

“Then you will have a way to live. If you survive in the chicken coop, wouldn’t you get a chance to meet a new owner? And the new owner may be able to give them freedom in the yard instead of the chicken coop and provide them with a lot of feed.”

“I will definitely survive. So, I will accept the selection of a new owner.”

President Jang understood what I meant right away.

Survive by attacking Rep. Yoon. Then I will collect it for you.

It was not an impossible mission.

Because one of Representative Yoon Hyeon-gil’s hands was already cut off when he tried to catch President Jang.

Although it was difficult to avoid both hands, it was not that difficult to survive by avoiding one hand.

***

Rep. Yoon Hyeon-gil’s office was in an emergency state.

This was because CEO Jang Soo-young came to the congressman’s office without warning and caused a scene.

“How can that be! You decided not to attack the Chairman with the materials I gave you! Also, someone else took over as president of Hyunjae Construction. What happened? Do I look like a pushover!”

It was CEO Jang Soo-young who screamed and was abusive.

The sight made the aides think, and Representative Yoon Hyeon-gil broke into a sweat.

“Try to calm down first. “Everything is going well, so just wait a little while and I will give you good news.”

“I am also a person with listening ears. I hope everything will end well, Senator. Because they will throw me away as prey. But I’m not that easy of a person. “I will never die alone.”

“Boss Jang! Why are you so excited? “Why are you telling me that I’m throwing President Jang away as prey?”

“I also have insurance from several places. Just know that the moment you touch me, you will all die together.”

President Jang Soo-young left the lawmaker’s office in a huff.

The sound of sighs echoed here and there in the congressman’s office where a storm had swept through.

“Now that I see President Jang, he was a very nasty person.”

“But I don’t think they’re just saying this. “He was the CEO of Taewoo Engineering & Construction, so he should not be taken lightly.”

“It’s a pain in the ass. “I’ll have to change my plan.”

“If CEO Jang Soo-young takes the initiative and walks out, things will get weird. “I think it would be a good idea to change the prey we throw at Taewoo Group.”

“I haven’t been able to contact Chairman Jang Young-jun these days, and there’s nothing going on these days.”

Representative Yoon Hyeon-gil was planning a plan to offer up CEO Jang Soo-young as prey.

However, when CEO Jang Soo-young risked his life and made a fuss, he had no choice but to revise the plan.

Rep. Yoon Hyeon-gil was looking for another chicken before getting his hand pecked on his beak for no reason.

But does he know?

The fact that there are only a few chickens left in the chicken coop.

And when all the prey to throw is gone, you will become the prey.
