It Depends on What Older Brother Does
President Shim held the document bundle.
“This is the resignations of Taeseong Chemicals employees so not U-gwang’s. I’ll take this.”
“Take that and get out quickly.”
“No, not even giving time to take the nameplate? Does U-gwang originally chase out even employees organizing desks like this?”
President Shim rested one hip on the desk.
“Then you also won’t have time to take the nameplate? How about taking the nameplate in advance?”
“Nonsense!”
“Not nonsense, I know and you know. Does U-gwang Construction have the ability to block 15 billion won bills?”
“······.”
President Kim of U-gwang Construction closed his mouth.
Pretending calm forcefully but the resentful color seemed difficult to hide.
“What do you want to say?”
“On the occasion of leaving, what would I have to say? Just feeling the same illness and pity.”
“Shim Won-cheol.”
“Have to seek the way to live in advance. Look at me.”
President Shim spread both arms and shrugged shoulders as if showing.
“Who knew would be kicked out of the Taeseong Chemicals president position overnight?”
“Hmm.”
“Taeseong already had two affiliate presidents cut with one knife in half a month. Took the rice bowl of one’s younger brother, one’s confidant and put it in the son’s hand.”
President Shim of Taeseong Chemicals and President Cha of Taeseong Construction were dismissed.
President Kim of U-gwang Construction became a complicated expression.
“Then now. Receive lots of new year luck.”
President Shim smiled gently and waved his hand.
Then detached his hip from the desk and held my hand without lingering and walked out.
Holding the resignation bundle of Taeseong Chemicals employees in one hand.
“Wait. If wanting to take the nameplate, can take it.”
“Enough. If entering the president’s office now, will see a good appearance? It would be good if you keep the nameplate for a while. Will come to find soon.”
Because intending to take back Taeseong Chemicals soon.
* * *
President Shim held my hand and came out of the secretary’s office.
It was a refreshed and relieved face.
“President Shim, now making an expression just like a villain.”
“Did it show?”
President Shim didn’t even deny.
“Deliberately stirring President of U-gwang Construction.”
“Just returning as received.”
President Shim glanced back at the closed door and clicked his tongue.
“Because President Kim of U-gwang Construction put in a lot of empty wind, the close relationship between the chairman and younger brother widened a lot.”
It was the talk of the previous Taeseong Construction president, the little grandfather.
“Wanting to see how close the relationship between U-gwang’s two brothers is.”
President Shim sowed the sprout of suspicion in President Kim of U-gwang Construction’s heart with a few light words.
To suspect the older brother’s true intentions, and to suspect one’s own future.
‘Anyway, after Chairman Kim pointed U-gwang Construction as the issuance place of Taeseong Chemicals bills. Properly ignited the fire on President of U-gwang Construction’s anxiety and dissatisfaction.’
President Shim put the document bundle brought into the document bag with a whoosh.
“Ah, the money laundering mentioned earlier!”
“Here it is.”
“The employment application saying transferring to Taeseong Construction?”
“That is also here.”
President Shim slightly opened the inside of the document bundle taken earlier and showed.
On the cover it was written <Taeseong Chemicals Resignations>, but inside other documents were slightly mixed.
“No need to worry. The documents left in the president’s office there are all only covers plausible but the actual content is trash like chaff.”
“Chaff documents? Surely even things like Taeseong Chemicals’ shampoo mixing method or development reports······.”
“Yes, deliberately selected only failed experiments and lined them up as if showing.”
President Shim grinned.
“As soon as hearing that Chairman Kim of U-gwang came, made Team Leader Lee load all important documents into my car trunk.”
As expected President Shim! Thorough!
“Then shall we go? To not be late for dinner time, seems have to hurry a bit more.”
President Shim pulled up his mouth corner.
“The matter of tightening U-gwang’s breath is insufficient with me alone. Because seems have to seek the cooperation of the chairman and Taeseong’s affiliate presidents.”
Smoothly.
The underworld messenger rose from the floor like smoke.
[In that president’s office over there, the U-gwang affiliate presidents were excited and a mess. Shall I show?]
‘Enough.’
What use peeking at that.
On the occasion of even erasing the underworld path countdown and orange arrows that were sparkling above the Taeseong Chemicals people’s heads, necessarily?
Now it’s all finished matter.
[That sly-looking guy. The U-gwang Construction president guy. The matter of following that guy’s back and catching the tail?]
‘Stop that too. Obtained the Subway Line 2 construction, handed over Taeseong Chemicals, so seems no need to particularly care.’
[Is that so.]
The underworld messenger glanced at the president’s office door side.
[Then do as intended.]
* * *
President Kim of U-gwang Construction who got in the car closed the back door as if it would break.
Bang!
President Kim of U-gwang Construction who roughly threw Shim Won-cheol’s nameplate into the back seat spat out curses lowly.
“Saying became able to eat Taeseong Chemicals for free and celebrating so mind gone and even saying quit the affiliate inspection. The company appearance is running really well.”
“Isn’t it a joyful occasion enough. Preparing as much as 15 billion to organize Taeseong Chemicals shares would have been a headache matter, but became settling with bills.”
“Who takes responsibility for those bills? Our U-gwang Construction ended up taking all!”
President Kim of U-gwang Construction couldn’t endure and shouted with a burst.
Secretary Choi slightly watched the superior’s eyes with the rearview mirror.
“Well, since the chairman trusts and cherishes the president the most······.”
“Nonsense! Older brother trusts and cherishes me the most? Then shouldn’t do this to me!”
Thud!
President Kim of U-gwang Construction hit the leather seat with a fist unable to overcome the resentment.
“Even selling all the land U-gwang Construction has, can’t prepare 15 billion! There that bastard Shim Won-cheol treated U-gwang Construction as a mere 5 billion won company!”
“Hit a lot. 5 billion was a bit too much.”
“When arguing to older brother, the words said, Cha Tae-seong grew a 30 billion won company with 1 billion in 7 years, but I couldn’t grow even a 15 billion won company in 30 years so it’s a pitiful matter!”
The reason Chairman Kim of U-gwang Construction was panting.
“Really asking if intending to default U-gwang Construction and blow away the 15 billion won bills, intending to swallow Taeseong Chemicals from the beginning, intending to push me out, what? Is there a reason can’t do? This damn!”
Thud!
“All is a matter depending on what I do? If wanting to protect U-gwang Construction, show that level of ability? Prove with results, get recognized with skill? Have to show that U-gwang Construction is more valuable than 15 billion?”
Thud!
“Knowing clearly how much I worked and devoted to grow U-gwang Construction until now and giving me such insult? In front of the affiliate president group? Unless treating me as a dog pig!”
President Kim of U-gwang Construction ground his teeth.
Panted for a while and breathed rough breaths.
Secretary Choi holding the steering wheel couldn’t even breathe largely and shrank his neck a lot.
How much time passed.
“Secretary Choi, if saying. If a fire occurs at Taeseong Chemicals now, what would happen?”
“P, president!”
Secretary Choi was shocked.
“Just finishing the Taeseong Chemicals acquisition and coming. The situation changed from before. Don’t say such words.”
“Why? What changed?”
President Kim of U-gwang Construction’s eyes had bloodshot.
“If a large fire occurs at Taeseong Chemicals, property and human damage occurs largely. Then the media talks, the Blue House’s anger falls. If so, what would happen?”
“That was the trap set to pull down Chairman Cha. Since the acquisition merger already ended, even if an accident occurs at the chemical factory, can’t touch Cha Tae-seong now!”
President Kim of U-gwang Construction only giggles.
Secretary Choi’s voice began to tremble small.
“President, if forcing the matter like this, U-gwang’s damage will be considerably large. Perhaps enough that anger falls from the Blue House······.”
“So. If so, can older brother preserve the head position?”
Secretary Choi swallowed dry saliva.
But President Kim of U-gwang Construction didn’t stop.
“The nephew is now just in his 30s. Too young to rise as the next head.”
“President, if a fire occurs at Taeseong Chemicals, Taeseong Chemicals will fly away vainly. There even U-gwang Securities is entangled? The damage is too enormous!”
“If not seeing even that level of damage! Can I even sit in U-gwang’s head position?”
President Kim of U-gwang Construction’s gaze sank darkly.
“Older brother holds the poison heart of discarding U-gwang Construction to obtain Taeseong Chemicals. If defaulting U-gwang Construction like this, I’ll become like Cha Yun-seong.”
President Kim of U-gwang Construction glanced at the nameplate written <Taeseong Chemicals President Shim Won-cheol>.
President Shim’s advice came to mind.
-Have to seek the way to live in advance. Look at me. Who knew would be kicked out of the Taeseong Chemicals president position overnight?
-Taeseong already had two affiliate presidents cut with one knife in half a month. Took the rice bowl of one’s younger brother, one’s confidant and put it in the son’s hand.
The stone from another mountain was not far.
It was nearby.
“Not others’ matter.”
The more thinking, anger surges up.
“If older brother, would shake off even my property whole and put in the nephew’s mouth.”
Even Cha Tae-seong who cherishes the younger brother so much was so, if our older brother, would treat more harshly if treating.
Wouldn’t take care of the younger brother couple and nephew carefully.
“Just looking at issuing bills in the name of U-gwang Construction, already seems determined to cut me out.”
Secretary Choi who was restless carefully opened his mouth.
“President, how about drinking one drink together and talking frankly between brothers.”
“Would there be that level of loyalty between our brothers.”
“Then how about confirming who sits in the Taeseong Chemicals, no, U-gwang Chemicals president position first and plotting a big matter?”
“U-gwang Chemicals president. If handing over that position and even the shares all to my child······. I also have no reason to have more dissatisfaction.”
President Kim of U-gwang Construction could lean his body on the leather seat only then.
“All depends on what older brother does.”
President Kim of U-gwang Construction crossed his legs.
“That vicious private loaner attached to the Taeseong Chemicals laborer.”
“Bulgwang-dong Gasoline?”
“Yes, that guy. A guy whose fire-setting skill is not ordinary?”
“How else would the nickname be Bulgwang-dong Gasoline? Going around the houses and workplaces of guys who don’t repay my money and secretly setting fire without leaving even traces, the skill is art, they say.”
* * *
Arriving at grandfather’s house, indeed dinner time was almost there.
All of Taeseong’s affiliate presidents and executives returned, and only Taeseong’s direct family remained.
We sat around a table that became much more modest compared to the morning and ate dinner.
“Jeong-hyeok, was the Taeseong Chemicals factory tour fun?”
“Yes, grandfather.”
“President Shim, you worked hard. Busy even with Taeseong Chemicals handover preparation.”
“Chairman, anyway, there’s words to convey because of the Taeseong Chemicals acquisition.”
It was when President Shim was only moving his lips.
Secretary Kim appeared in the dining room with a pale face.
“Chairman, overseas news flash! Indian Airlines flight 855 to Dubai crashed into the Arabian Sea and all passengers are estimated to have died!”
Secretary Kim urgently added.
“The very plane that Young Master Seong-jun was scheduled to board.”
“······!”
The eyes of the family opened wide in shock all stuck to father.
“Surely the matter that came out in the dream really······!”
“My goodness!”
“World, what is all this matter?”
Actually father was pale white in another meaning and urgently asked back to Secretary Kim.
“Are there Korean passengers?”
“Not yet accurately revealed the identities, but seems there are Korean passengers.”
“Surely Gyeong-seok······!”
Lee Gyeong-seok. It was Secretary Lee’s name.
Father pressed his forehead with a hand.
“The round-trip ticket that Gyeong-seok cut was Indian Airlines flight 855. Departing at 09:30 on January 1.”
A brief silence settled.
“Secretary Kim, have you received a telegram from Gyeong-seok saying returning?”
“No.”
“A telegram regarding status report?”
“Continuously sending telegrams saying return quickly, but received no reply at all.”
“Surely Gyeong-seok is forcing the schedule alone······.”
Father did a dry face wash.
Secretary Kim continued the report.
“Currently the Middle East flipped because of a person estimated to have boarded that plane.”
“Who is that?”
“Muhammad bin Buti Al Ahmed.”
Pfft!
I ended up spraying water without realizing.
‘What? Why does Mansour’s father-in-law come out there?’
Then the underworld messenger popped out and said proudly.
[That is it. The very special connection ring that His Majesty said would gift to you.]
So the connection that originally absolutely couldn’t be reached with me, and the string with the big shot that King Yama specially chose starts from that person?
