After doing this, Jo Min-woo immediately entered the building with Lee Jung-min's guidance. Once the interior of the building was made of luxurious shine, I immediately noticed.

I had already been to Damian in the past, but today I felt different.

Do you think it's because it's a new stretch? ’

He smiled quietly and followed after Lee Jung-min.

Soon I got on the elevator.

Srr.

It felt different because it was an elevator assigned exclusively to the president.

There was very little vibration.

However, Lee Jung-min did not unexpectedly open his mouth. It was just to guide him quietly with a good smile on his face.

He also kept his mouth shut because he had no reason to go first.

Hmm, is there something you need to know? ’

* * *

As the elevators rose, the number of LEDs that naturally changed the layer number continued to change.

15th, 20th, 25th, and 39th floors.

It stops here.

Srr.

Immediately after the door was opened, Lee Jung-min's president slowly went out ahead. Immediately, those who appeared to be his attendants followed.

Jo Min-woo calmly walked in with a casual look on his face and just one secretary and a sheep.

Boom.

However, he soon stopped walking in the hallway of the building that was lacking in fancy words. The picture on the frame on the wall was unusual at first glance.

“A gift.”

“Gifts?”

“Hahaha, we had a hard time because of you, didn't we? So I ended up with some of the paintings that I had here. What do you think?”

“Well, that's a burden. ”

I had to.

The painting hanging on the walls of the building never looked light. The price seems to be quite high. No, it wasn't easy to get even if I paid for it.

It was said that the work that was painted with a clear picture of beautiful living tax was great. Moreover, the picture of the cool stream of water hit as the waterfall bent, just by looking at it, my eyes became cool.

But this was not the only painting. The closely illuminated painting represented the love of men and women as superrealistic, and it seemed to be quite elegant.

But that wasn't all. As I walked through the hallway and entered the office, I saw something even more surprising.

The interior, which was decorated like a medieval nobleman's office, was glamorous enough to surpass the billions just by the cost of interior decoration.

Even Cho Min-woo couldn't tell what he looked like, so rather than being surprised, he hardened his face.

“I really don't like this. ”

“Well, I don't want you to think too complicated. ”

“What do you mean? With this much interior, it's worth over 200 million. But is it really just a gift? ”

Lee Jung-min didn't show much change in his cool attitude. Rather, he left for another drink and fixed it.

“Not 200 million, but 500 million, to be exact. ”

“Hnng, isn't that what you said?! ”

He was surprisingly intrigued by Cho Min-woo's cold reaction. He did this not intend to use his great strings against him.

When you look at the politicians you deal with or the entrepreneurs, this was a generalized practice.

Rather, if you don't do this, the opposing Pokémon will bite, so there's nothing to add.

"Is it because I'm young? ’

Maybe it's right to see it that way.

But when I saw the work done, I couldn't believe it either.

It was related to the fact that he appeared here and, in some ways, gave a special advantage in contrast to the basic construction.

“Joe, don't you think it's all for a reason? ”

Cho Min-woo tilted his head with a curious look.

“Yes?”

Lee told a realistic story after realizing that it was useless to attract more horses.

“I know a lot of people in the political community, as I've seen. Of course, I've heard about what happened near Seohyun recently. ”

“....... ”

He realizes what the other person wants and shuts up. I didn't know that I would hear such stories here.

But it was also the part I was worried about.

‘This is the problem. I thought you weren't just gonna give up what the president gave you, but it's already a problem. I can't believe you passed it on to someone else. ’

However, he couldn't help but receive that privilege. Now he also needed the area around Seohyun.

However, the current situation was not easy.

One step to politics.

However, he couldn't ignore it unconditionally as long as he was already involved.

“After all, what you want is a new construction of the Raincomb Research Complex? ”

“Something like that. And it's not just my idea, it's my head.......”

Cho Min-woo frowned and waved his hand and blocked his mouth.

“No, thank you. I see what you mean. It doesn't have to be complicated, whether it should have been left to someone. However, if there is a case like insolvency.......”

“Hahaha, you don't have to worry about that. No matter how intimidating I am, I have to have a strong relationship with a growing company like Raincomb. But that's what I'm going to do. ”

“Good. Let's do that. ”

“Thank you."

* * *

Cho Min-woo concluded that he was going to issue a construction order for the development of Hyunsung Industrial Co., Ltd. and immediately broke up with him. However, he looked down through his own window for a moment in his office.

The area of Seoul to Gangnam Station, including Yeoksam Station, caught my eye. It is perhaps the most scenic area around the station.

I didn't feel bad.

I'm already the owner of this fine building. This was literally the difference between heaven and hell compared to Raincomb's previous prison.

But he was really distracted on one hand.

It was due to the construction of the Hyunsung Industrial Development.

In fact, it was not at all that I did not think it would be problematic just when I received the privilege from the president.

But I couldn't do it like this. I can't get a normal construction order because of the perks.

‘By the way, the purchase of Seohyun Land itself is a privilege. ’

When he came up with this idea, he immediately needed to look at the problem once.

‘I need to check my real estate records. ’

* * *

Cho Min-woo now had to review this once in order to eliminate the ownership of the problem with the purchase of Seohyun property. Immediately, he asked for a report through both chiefs.

“...... here it is. This is the result of the purchase of Seohyun land to date. ”

He was surprised when he read the reports from both of them again.

“Seven million square feet? ”

“Yes, Mr. Jung was more capable than I thought. Given the money, he got as much land as he could. ”

“Hmm, but what a surprise. Buying two million square feet! ”

“It says in the report that the game is not very good, so people who need money had to give up their land. ”

Cho Min-woo smiled lonelily.

“I'm sorry. It's a scam in a way. ”

“You don't have to think that way. It's not going to happen if you don't set up a research complex there anyway. ”

“I should think so. So all that's left is to announce a formal altitude restriction. How's that going? ”

“The announcement will be official next week. ”

“Next week….. is faster than I thought. ”

“The president was directly involved, so maybe it's slower. ”

“I can see that. ”

After speaking like this, Jo Min-woo hung up for a moment and slowly opened his mouth again.

“But on the one hand, it is. that we had the help of political power in this way. ”

“Are you referring to the suspicion of privilege? ”

“Yes, that's the case with Lee Jung-min as well. That's why I couldn't resist. ”

“Phew, yeah. That, frankly, worries me a lot when I think about it now. It doesn't matter now, but I'm sure it will come to an end of the regime. ”

“A bribe? ”

“Yes, we didn't, of course, give it to the government or their politicians. But I don't think so around here. You may have doubts. But if they do, they'll try to put it together somehow. Then.......”

“It's complicated. ”

Nor did he deny it.

And I had to think harder.

He also clearly thought it was problematic, but both chiefs were serious when they had similar opinions. It was clear that the image of a regime cohesive company would continue to follow once it was dried up by Old Testament.

It was really difficult. The corporate image was also an image, but it could be a big obstacle to what he was trying to do.

Is there anything we can do? ’

* * *

Cho Min-woo also had to seriously worry about the issue of ratings adhesion through consultation with Yang. He knew better than anyone that he didn't want to do this.

We couldn't do this.

Or being known through other routes was problematic enough.

In the end, he now had to worry about objections due to real estate privileges. The result was simpler than I thought.

‘What is the way to bring real estate prices back to society in any form? ’

Not bad.

The first thing that came to mind was a welfare fund.

But it was a problem for him to do now.

Raincomb was a growing company.

It was premature to do this.

Jo Min-woo unexpectedly had one more way to find out soon after considering the matter seriously, based on his experience so far.

‘Yeah, IMF now. Then it's unemployment, isn't it? ’

It was about people who were cut off from the company and couldn't find work through the pain of restructuring. And they knew better than anyone what would happen in the future.

That after the IMF is over, the American mortgage crisis is on the edge of the cliff.

Of course, it wouldn't matter if it was someone who was in their own business, but it was a little different for someone who could do enough work.

‘Why don't we give them a job? ’

* * *

Even Cho Min-woo thought about it, but it wasn't his decision. It's because I use some of the profits from the real estate, so much money.

Eventually, I had to renegotiate with both chiefs.

“What do you think?”

“Hmmm, are you suggesting we hire someone who resigned because of the IMF? ”

“Yes. It's going to be difficult, of course. But it can be done with simple assembly, right? It doesn't matter if you're not too old. ”

“I see what you mean. But they're old. If you say so now, you're talking from the late 30s to the mid-50s, which is not work, it's not two years, it's years of feeding. Wouldn't that have grabbed hold of our company? ”

Cho Min-woo smiled.

“Realistically, of course. But there is a very simple way. We can make that much more money in raincomb. Especially if you give them the benefits of exporting overseas, would that benefit the public? ”

“Ha, but.......”

Both of them stuttered and finally shut their mouths. It was not well understood by his common sense.

It was a normal company to reduce labor costs or take advantage of exploitation.

Rather, the idea that I would pay a certain amount of labor by teaching an older person to work by hiring someone who has no professional experience. I never imagined it.

It was literally a charity thing.

Cho Min-woo opened his mouth again.

“Why? Is it charity? ”

“Yes, to be honest, I feel that way. We pay our employees at Raincomb. It's a commercial organization that seeks profit. But it really feeds them…..”

“But I want you to think about this. Imagine if Chief Yang was fired from the company right now. What would you do if you quit? ”

“Me?”

Both chiefs frowned and couldn't open their mouths. I didn't feel so good when I heard that story for no reason.

He just said a gentle smile.

“In short, Korea will become increasingly difficult in the future. Those who live well will live well, but those who do not live well will become more and more needy. And especially now, most of the people who are fired from the company are going to have a hard last year. Give them some of the benefits of raincomb evenly. ”

“Well, you're talking about a portion of the real estate revenue. ”

“Yes, I think we can recruit 3,500 people with a trillion hits. ”

“It is, but.......”

When Jo Min-woo saw that he was still hesitant, he went out stronger this time.

“Of course, I know this is the right thing to do in the country. But maybe they would never do this in a country. You don't have to explain it, because you know more about the members of the Korean Parliament. So I'm going to demonstrate this first. Maybe if we do this, we won't talk about real estate privileges in the future. because this is what happens with the revenue anyway. ”
