How a Calamity Necromancer Retires - How a Calamity Necromancer Retires chapter 122
“Governor Yoon.”
Park Yang-goo, a middle-ranking member of the ruling party and a benefactor who helped Ho-chang Yun enter politics by placing him as an aide.
That Park Yang-gu said to Yun Ho-chang.
“Can’t you convince Chairman Han?”
“What do you mean?”
“It’s not even asking for much. I’m just asking for a chance to have a conversation. Right now, the secretary’s office is blocking all contact.”
Obviously, since it was Park Yang-gu’s request, he would probably step forward out of loyalty, but in the cold-blooded world of politics, nothing is as ephemeral as grace from the past.
Besides, Yun Ho-chang remembers it clearly.
As Gunsan City collapsed and the position of Yun Ho-chang, who was the mayor at the time, was shaken, he slowly began to distance himself from Park Yang-gu.
To that extent, Yun Ho-chang answered without hesitation.
“It seems difficult now. Because Chairman Han is very angry.”
“Have you met them?”
“I’ve met him, but it’s not between me and Chairman Han.”
Yun Ho-chang emphasized that there was no problem in his relationship with Han Ji-hyeok.
“Then you can bridge the bridge. You don’t know, a hearing is just a hearing. Isn’t it an unspoken rule to end the workshop there?”
“I know very well that we are politicians, but how would the president know that, as long as he has no interest in politics at all?”
“So I want you to explain that. The arguments made by lawmakers at the hearing are literally personal arguments, and they will not lead to any legal action.”
“It’s a personal claim… … . Chairman Han didn’t think so.”
“what?”
“After all, it is the party that decides the lawmakers attending the hearing. Of course, we have no choice but to interpret it as the party’s intention.”
Then Park Yang-gu said with a frustrated expression.
“That’s common in politics… … .”
“therefore.”
Yun Ho-chang interrupted Park Yang-gu and said.
“Chairman Han said he is not a politician.”
“I want you to explain that! that!”
At Park Yang-gu’s words, Yun Ho-chang shook his head and said.
“It can’t be.”
Park Yang-gu said with a puzzled expression, probably not knowing that he would refuse.
“Is it that difficult to ask for an explanation?”
“The work is not difficult. But the situation is difficult.”
Yun Ho-chang said with a firm expression.
“As you may know, I am sitting in this seat for the sake of persuading Chairman Han to settle in Jeonbuk. The reason why my approval rating is still strong is because, like this time, the start of all projects is with Gunsan City and Jeonbuk. However, Chairman Han’s declaration of leaving Korea came out.”
Yun Ho-chang gritted his teeth and said.
“Because of that one damned hearing I got ripped off.”
Yun Ho-chang was increasing his influence within the party and recruiting lawmakers to form his own power.
Ho-Chang Yun’s forces actively opposed this hearing, but the opinion of the mainstream within the party was so clear that the hearing was held under the condition that Rep. Yun-Jin Kim, who was eventually classified as Yun Ho-Chang, participated as one of the members in attendance.
“Thanks to Rep. Yunjin Kim’s active advocacy, I am also in a position to ask that we have a meeting now and maintain the status quo as much as Jeonbuk. But wouldn’t the situation be more complicated if other people in the party were involved? For me, Jeonbuk is my top priority. We cannot provide any help until we receive a confirmation from the president that Jeonbuk will be maintained.”
“wait for a sec. status quo? Could it be that Chairman Han is really thinking of leaving Korea?”
“Are you honest?”
“Tell me. It’s a very important story.”
“It’s still half and half.”
Park Yang-gu said with a pale face when he was told that the possibility of leaving Korea was half.
“no. If public opinion is omitted, the Korean economy will… … .”
“Why do people who know that well hold a hearing and make this sadal!”
“Is there a way for us! The union rose up, and we should at least pretend to do something!”
“So, I would rather propose a regulatory bill to appease the public, and then vote it down in the plenary session and do what has not happened, isn’t that what I said!”
“Um… … .”
Park Yang-gu, who was silent for a moment, spoke.
“Governor Yoon, how much friendship have we built over the years? I need some help. huh?”
At those words, Yun Ho-chang snorted inwardly, but pretended to be worried and said.
“Whoa. I can’t help it. It is because of Congressman Park that I entered politics.”
“okay. In times like these, we should help each other. Let me bridge your legs.”
“I can do it for you. But just can’t.”
“Can’t you just?”
“At least there should be a package of presents to cool Chairman Han’s anger.”
Yun Ho-chang looked at Park Yang-gu and said.
“The expulsion of the lawmaker who attacked Chairman Han at the hearing and the lawmaker who led this hearing.”
“what!?”
Park Yang-gu said with a puzzled expression.
“To expel a member of the National Assembly from the party just because you don’t like business people? Not to mention the party regulations, there is no such law in the world!”
“If it’s not that much, Chairman Han won’t let go of his anger. And I don’t think you can grasp how serious the situation is right now… … .”
Park Yang-gu’s aide, who was outside at that time, shouted.
“Yes, Senator! Chairman Ji-hyeok Han has left for the United States!”
“what!? USA? What did the Ministry of Foreign Affairs do without blocking that!”
Then Yun Ho-chang said with a calm expression.
“Of course, it couldn’t have been prevented, since there is no law that can prevent a citizen who has not committed a crime from legitimately leaving the country, just as there is no law to expel him.”
“… Did you know?”
“I knew.”
“Sir, are you really going to go to America?”
“I don’t even know that. It was all because I heard that I would have to go to America soon. That’s what I said.”
Yun Ho-chang looked at Park Yang-gu and said.
“As soon as possible, prepare a gift bag and unpack it. Otherwise, we might lose the best and strongest Awakener since the establishment of the Korean government.”
* * *
“Welcome, Chairman Han.”
Kim Young-tae of the CIA greeted me and said.
“Welcome to America.”
I took a deep breath.
“Hmm. This is American air.”
Then he smiled and said.
“Maybe it will become my second home.”
At my words, Kim Young-tae smiled and said.
“If that were the case, I wouldn’t have a wish… You may not have thought of that yet. If you did, you would have applied for citizenship, not permanent residency.”
Unlike the people who only enjoyed my favor in Korea, the CIA knows better about me because I am involved in many things.
“Will you keep it a secret?”
“Of course I will keep it a secret.”
Kim Young-tae guided me and said.
“It is in the national interest of the United States. The strongest Awakener and the chairman of the Seron Group applied for permanent residency in the United States. Sooner or later, it may be fully settled in the United States. Isn’t it good for a news topic?”
“How nice it would be if our country’s lawmakers were this quick-witted.”
“Korean lawmakers are not fools either. They couldn’t help it either. Because there was a backlash, I had to do something. Of course, the method was wrong. I’ve never experienced the president directly, so I wouldn’t have expected it to come out this strong.”
I looked at Kim Young-tae and said.
“Can I support you like that?”
“Our policy towards the President is patience. It continues to show American excellence. Of course, the truth is also included in it.”
I’ll open my heart and show you everything, so come anytime.
I mean, I really liked it.
“Anyway, the green card you mentioned will be processed sooner or later. We can issue it right away, but that doesn’t make sense.”
In fact, I came to the United States not because of my green card.
In the first place, the United States had a perfect immigration system for high-level Awakeners, so even those who had never set foot in the United States were issued citizenship unconditionally, unless there was a special reason for disqualification at Grade A or higher.
However, since I am an Awakener presumed to be of the SSS level, and not even a citizenship, but a permanent residency, it was possible to issue it as soon as I expressed my intention.
However, the reason why I came to the United States was to raise awareness among Koreans and at the same time to take this opportunity to advance into the United States in earnest.
Anyway, I asked Kim Young-tae as I was moving in the car prepared by Kim Young-tae.
“Is there anything that a skeleton can do in America?”
“It overflows. The United States is a country of immigrants, and recently we are actively promoting the establishment of factories in the United States to revive the manufacturing industry.”
“It’s good.”
“ah. And there is also farming.”
right.
Wasn’t the United States the world’s largest agricultural powerhouse?
“Isn’t that like spraying pesticides on an airplane? If machines do everything, there won’t be much need for skeletons, right?”
“You must have known it because you used Skeleton. Machines are not omnipotent. Furthermore, farming requires human hands, not standardized industrial products. So when it’s time for labor, farmers hire a large number of day laborers to deal with it. It would be perfect if the skeletons filled the place. It is perfect because they are already doing large-scale farming in Central Africa.”
“Then isn’t that taking the day laborers’ jobs?”
Then Kim Young-tae smiled and said.
“Farming is the most arduous and low-cost job in any country in the world. Who would do most of that?”
“A foreign worker?”
“That’s right. Especially illegal immigrants.”
“aha.”
Kim Young-tae said with a cynical expression.
“There is no consideration given to illegal immigrants who do not pay taxes and are a breeding ground for various crimes, from drugs to drugs.”
If it helps the national interest, it comes out as if it is liver and gallbladder, but if it is judged to be harmful to the national interest, Kim Young-tae shows the merciless appearance of the United States itself.
But for anyone in public office, this is true.
We must prioritize the interests of our country so that those interests will return to the people.
“Anyway, the number of illegal immigrants in the United States is estimated to be around 11 million. That means the skeleton has a lot to do. Skeletons are legal and cheap labor force that pays corporate tax from the sales they earn as they belong to the Seron corporation.”
hey
11 million illegal immigrants alone?
Certainly, the United States is far superior in terms of units.
Anyway, there’s a lot to do, isn’t it?
Then I’m fine.
From the US point of view, it’s good because you can form a closer relationship with me by taking jobs from illegal immigrants.
The bigger my business in the US grows, the more I have no choice but to pay more attention to the US.
I said with a bright smile.
“great. Then, shall we establish a corporation in the U.S. of Seron Group?”
* * *
Han Ji-hyeok’s departure to the United States.
This alone, combined with the remarks made at the hearing, led to unusual rumors circulating, and that was just the beginning.
The Seron Group established a corporation in the United States and announced its full-fledged entry into the United States.
In addition, by the time he returned to Korea, news that Han Ji-hyeok had obtained permanent residency in the United States came out, and Korea turned upside down.
All those who feel proud that the strongest awakening is Korean and are doing business or working related to Seron.
And Yun Ho-chang did not miss this opportunity.
“So far, you’ve only obtained permanent residency, and it doesn’t seem like you’ve made up your mind to move to the United States.”
At Yun Ho-chang’s words, a lawmaker sighed in relief and said,
“That’s good. If it really goes over, the entire political world will be turned upside down. Regardless of the opposition party or the ruling party.”
“But you shouldn’t be caught off guard just yet. Chairman Han’s anger is not resolved yet.”
Then the senator burst into anger and said:
“So, why does the party leadership pay for this by touching a person who is doing business in no time?!”
Of course, Yun Ho-chang also knows.
It is said that the lawmaker in front of him is also highly likely to bite the bullet if such a hearing opportunity comes.
But what does it matter.
There is no meaning in assuming things that have not happened in the political arena.
“By the way, Senator, don’t you need a long-term rental of skeletons in your district?”
Then the senator said with a sympathetic expression.
“Long-term rental?”
“yes.”
“Even if it wasn’t so, there was a fuss about whether the chairman was leaving at this rate, but if long-term rentals were introduced… I will be very, very relieved. At least you’re not the kind of person who irresponsibly overturns everything you’ve done.”
“That’s right. Thanks to this, Jeonbuk is now the only region in Korea where long-term skeleton rentals have been introduced. How about extending it to your constituency?”
“… Would that be possible?”
“Didn’t the chairman say at the hearing that he would introduce it only to areas the people want? We want to expand this as quickly as possible to show that the Korean people welcome long-term rentals.”
“okay. That way, we can prove that the opinion at the hearing is not the opinion of the people, but the narrow opinion of the minority.”
“So now, I am trying to gather as many lawmakers as possible and gather their opinions through a local vote. Of course, well, it’s a story when I persuaded it well and it worked. For your reference, Congressman Yunjin Kim’s constituency has already decided to vote, and the chairman said that he would be welcome as long as he was Congressman Yunjin Kim.”
The constituency of Rep. Kim Yun-jin of Yunho Chang-gye, who actively supported Han Ji-hyeok during this hearing, means that the long-term rental has been confirmed.
At the same time, Ho-Chang Yun’s secret suggestion to join his faction was hidden inside.
Of course, the lawmaker who grasped the fact said with a smile.
“That’s a good suggestion. Could you also arrange a meeting with other members of Congress?”
Yun Ho-chang nodded happily and said.
“of course. hahahaha. I’m glad the story went well.”
Yun Ho-chang, who recruited an additional lawmaker like that, said as he left the office of the lawmaker.
“very good.”
The ruling and opposition parties fell into chaos starting from the hearing.
At this time, Yun Ho-chang uses his friendship with Han Ji-hyeok as a weapon to contact many lawmakers regardless of the opposition and attract them to his side.
“perhaps… It may not really be the president’s dream.”
What if I prevent Han Ji-hyeok from leaving Korea due to the hearing, receive support from my people, and gain influence by attracting numerous lawmakers to factions?
Using that support base as a weapon, he may run for the presidential election and become the president.
Of course, to complete all of this, Han Ji-hyeok’s help was essential.
Yun Ho-chang lifted up his phone and said.
“Shall we apply some pressure?”
Yun Ho-chang called Park Yang-gu.
– Governor Yoon.
“Have you thought about it?”
-… No matter how much I think about the expulsion of the lawmakers. Isn’t it like the whole party being swayed by one entrepreneur?
“hmm. Is that so? Then I have no choice but to take action. Because this is the only way to cool Chairman Han’s anger, because if this happens, Jeonbuk could be in jeopardy.”
-what? what does that mean now
“You’ll find out what’s going on later.”
After ending the call, Yun Ho-chang spoke to the chief of staff.
“Contact the lawmakers and ask them to have a meal together.”
“All right.”
Yun Ho-chang said with a grin.
“A true politician who demands renewal of an incompetent party. Hearing stars have to be good at intellectual quality, right? So let me point it out.”
