318. The Jeong Family Heirloom

‘Let’s make a bold move.’

I placed the neatly folded sheet of paper on the table.

As the elder Jeong Dong-jin showed his intention to bring it, the skunk in the southeast moved.

widely.

I didn’t allow it.

He raised his head, pressing the signboard with his palm.

“I haven’t told you to take it yet?”

“That must be your trump card.”

“To be exact, that’s why I met you, sir.”

“If what should be burned is the blood oath and what should be recovered is the Taesung Group shares, then this is what I should take.”

“that’s right.”

“Is this a list of the Jeong family’s assets?”

Elder Jeong Dong-jin turned the camellia flower-patterned ring on his finger as if he was looking at something.

“No matter how I look at it, it seems like it’s only my will that’s lacking.”

“There’s nothing I can do about that.”

I smiled brightly.

“Because a will is originally written according to the will of the person writing it.”

“That was back when I didn’t know what was in my will.”

Elder Jeong Dong-jin also smiled brightly.

“So I guess I can take this back.”

“Then I won’t decline.”

I neatly retrieved the four pieces of paper I had placed on the table.

‘You’re lucky. If I had checked the content first and listened to it carefully, it would have been very annoying.’

Anyway, I ate up the four people who were my closest associates.

“Will I be able to eat up Taesung Group’s shares like this?”

“Maybe?”

“You’re going to leave just because you believed in my will. What if you change it and leave me out?”

“You say you’ve never gone back on your words since you were born?”

“… … .”

Elder Jeong Dong-jin closed his mouth as if he was speechless.

Because I can’t go back on what I said.

Whatever.

I put one more thing on the negotiating table.

“I’ll add this too.”

The teacher placed the entire briefcase on the table without hesitation.

It was so heavy that I could hear a thud.

“These are the ledgers and documents related to Japanese real estate that my maternal grandfather gave me.”

“That’s none of my business. Take care of it with the skunk.”

“I said that anyway with that intention in mind.”

Alright! Here we go again with the owner’s permission!

I grinned as I looked at the skunk in the southeast.

“If I didn’t know that my father was in trouble, I wouldn’t have known. Now that I know, I think I need to have a discussion with you as well.”

“Is that all you need?”

“No. I’ll upload this too.”

widely.

I also placed the blood letter and the will side by side on the table.

“hmm?”

Not only the elderly Jeong Dong-jin, but everyone present looked at me with the same face.

He had an expression on his face as if asking, “What kind of crazy thing is this?”

“Why are you putting that up? Are you trying to negotiate with me over what’s mine?”

“There’s no way it won’t work.”

“her?”

“If you had just given me a ride when I asked you to, this wouldn’t have happened.”

I farted.

“A request is accompanied by sincerity, but you only accept the sincerity and ignore the request. I have no choice but to receive a separate payment for my efforts.”

“Compensation?”

“Find out the traitor and clean up the house.”

I deliberately looked back at the skunk to the southeast.

“That kind of offer the old man made to you.”

“hmm?”

“Is this related to my father’s blood oath?”

“Huh?”

“Isn’t it thanks to you that you were allowed to return to your country and willingly agreed to take part in this play?”

“… … !”

A skunk from the southeast, its mouth wide open, let out a half-sad laugh.

I immediately looked back at my master.

“Sir, there is definitely a wiretapping device installed in this house.”

“Wiretapping device?”

“Otherwise, there would be no way the secret conversation between you and me would have leaked out.”

“Tsk. Get your head on straight, Skunk.”

Elder Jeong Dong-jin clicked his tongue lightly.

“Do you not understand what you are saying right now?”

“It means that the secret agent was using the master’s illness as an opportunity to thoroughly control the master’s information.”

“That means that Jeong-hyeok is currently in collusion with the underworld.”

The southeastern skunk immediately bent down.

“Skunk, can you take responsibility for your own words?”

“I made a slip of the tongue.”

“Hmm? This doesn’t sound like a skunk.”

“It was clearly my fault to raise the issue rashly without first securing evidence.”

“Hahaha. Then that’s true.”

Even if I die soon, I won’t say that I made a mistake.

“Are you planning on searching my room right now to find the wiretapping device?”

“We have caught a traitor who is in collusion with the underworld. We must take the necessary follow-up measures.”

It sounded like you were doubting me.

“If it is the sin of selling this family, isn’t it a great and unforgivable crime?”

Elder Jeong Dong-jin looked back at me with a happy face.

“Jeonghyeok, what should I do? For your sake, I can turn a blind eye just this once.”

“You want to clear a debt that you can’t afford? And you’re framing me for it? I’ll decline.”

I laughed.

“Even if you find the wiretap, that’s the crime of a corpse thief, and it can’t be used as evidence to prove that I was in collusion with the underworld.”

“ha ha ha.”

“It doesn’t make sense. An eight-year-old would use a secret agent to install a wiretapping device and receive top secret information?”

“But you knew that we had a secret meeting beforehand, and that the secret agent was a member of the underworld.”

“Are you going to keep nagging me about something that you could easily beat if you just used your head a little?”

Elder Jeong Dong-jin buried his body in his pillow with a face that looked like he was dying of joy.

“Jeonghyeok, my secret meeting with Skunk was only 4 hours ago.”

Elder Jeong Dong-jin clasped his hands together.

The camellia flower-patterned ring that fit loosely on her skinny finger sparkled particularly brightly.

“It was something that was done while leaving everyone around. Even the secret agent didn’t know the details.”

“That must have been the case. So, without even knowing it was a trap, I helped clean up the house with my own hands.”

“You, a young child, must have seen through things that even the messenger couldn’t notice… … .”

Without saying a word, Elder Jeong Dong-jin narrowed his eyes and smiled.

“Skunk. Get out.”

“Yes, sir!”

As soon as permission was granted, the southeast skunk responded with a loud roar.

“Then shall we discuss it again after looking at the evidence?”

I think that evidence is really useless.

I’m also curious to know whether or not the wiretapping device will be installed, so I’ll wait!

“Yeah, I guess so.”

Hororok.

This house’s twin-flower tea is really disgusting and tasteless!

Phew phew phew!

* * *

Skunk’s men rushed in one after another.

Every time they visited this place, they would have a blood-stained report in their hands.

It must have been obtained by beating up the guys who had been dragged to the basement and were being taken care of in advance.

“Master, those bastards did this on purpose.”

The Southeast Skunk smiled bitterly and handed over his report.

“We found wiretapping devices in five places: the master’s bedroom, the living room, the bathroom, the study, and the living room.”

“Where did you receive it?”

“This is the basement of the main building.”

“It was dark under the lamp.”

Elder Jeong Dong-jin had been seriously ill for a long time.

It means that there is no need to go down to the basement, which is used for dirty work.

“They confessed. They say they were secretly sent by the underworld to infiltrate or were bribed.”

“What is the purpose?”

“The disintegration of the Jeong clan’s power.”

“under!”

“It seems that the order was to use the vacancy in the succession position to start a war of succession and destroy it.”

The skunk to the southeast glanced at me.

“As part of this, we eliminated all spies associated with the master and covered up the master’s very existence.”

“under!”

“After that, it is said that he planned to secure or eliminate the mother and son.”

“Remove? Secure?”

“Unfortunately, it failed, so I was looking for an opportunity to kidnap her later.”

“hijacking?”

Elder Jeong Dong-jin crumpled up the bloody report.

The southeastern skunk swallowed dryly and chose his words.

“After Taesung Group’s security guards were deployed, the security was too tight to break through, so we had no choice but to change direction to a diversionary operation, and that was… … .”

“What’s the new target?”

“This is the family of Master Jeonghyeok’s maternal family, Ms. Lee Sujin.”

“What the hell!”

Elder Jeong Dong-jin threw down the crumpled report.

Half-crumpled trash fell to the floor like fluttering leaves.

“This wasn’t a problem that could be viewed simply.”

Elder Jeong Dong-jin smiled bitterly.

“If I had not been careful, my friend’s grandchild and daughter could have been kidnapped and murdered, and my friend’s family could have died a horrible death.”

Elder Jeong Dong-jin washed his face repeatedly.

“I almost caused a nuisance on a whole other level than just leaving my daughter’s whereabouts unchecked. I don’t think even getting stabbed in the neck would be enough to atone for this.”

My words!

They say that in your past life, many families were torn apart because of your greed.

Elder Jeong Dong-jin let out a long sigh.

“ha.”

“Look. It’s a false accusation, isn’t it?”

Some crazy guy asks you to kidnap, eliminate, and murder him and his family so that they can ruin other people’s families.

That too to the Chinese mafia.

Elder Jeong Dong-jin moved his lips a few times, but that was it.

Elder Jeong Dong-jin turned his eyes and growled in a cold voice.

“I understand there is no great grudge between us and the underworld.”

“The Japanese side secretly requested that we distribute Japanese drugs along with a huge down payment.”

Drug distribution makes money.

If it were the underworld known as the Chinese mafia, it would have been a target that would be highly coveted.

“It’s Japan.”

The eyes of the old man Jeong Dong-jin flashed with a murderous glare.

“There are too many people who are being picky.”

“Because the old grudge runs so deep.”

Mr. Jeong Dong-jin was a wealthy man who had engaged in private loan sharking, usury, and business dealings targeting the Japanese during the independence movement.

The grudges and conflicts of interest that led to that must have been truly complex and dirty.

This world is originally a place where other people’s blood, tears, and sweat are exchanged for money.

“Leave the Japanese side of things to me. I will dig into every little thing, even to the ends of hell.”

“good night.”

Elder Jeong Dong-jin looked back at me.

“Not only did I recognize the traitor who had infiltrated this family, I also saw through how he would forge and change my will, and I clearly foresaw how the Jeong family would be manipulated by others in the future… … .”

As Elder Jeong Dong-jin became lost in thought, a heavy silence began to flow.

The big names from the previous generation who were allowed to attend this event were not allowed to speak in the first place.

No wonder even the skunks of the southeast are waiting in a resting position next to the giants of the past.

“They say there is no one under the law. Things are things.”

Elder Jeong Dong-jin stared at me with hot eyes for a long time.

Whatever.

Hororok.

Wow!

I put down the tea I was drinking.

Why is it that even the rice cakes in this restaurant are so tasteless! Heh heh heh heh!

“Jeonghyeok, how would you handle this problem?”

“Are you asking me for a solution now?”

I understand that you want to evaluate me as a potential successor to the Jeong family.

I don’t really feel like living up to those expectations.

“With my mouth closed?”

“Hahaha! That’s right. I think it’s said that requests require sincerity.”

The smile of the old man Jeong Dong-jin became more and more satisfying.

“Okay, what can I do for you?”

“I would like to pass down the Jeong family heirloom to a Jeong family member.”

“A person from the Jeong family? Who is your father?”

“My father’s name is Cha Seong-jun. Why did you leave out my grandmother? Can’t women use the Jeong surname?”

I came with someone who had a great interest, desire, and attachment to the Jeong family heirloom.

“The Jeong family heirloom? To your older sister?”

“I want to have it.”

If my grandmother didn’t want it, I would have gone to the Jeong family and said, “I won’t even look at it!”

“My older sister is a married woman… … .”

“Then, when my grandmother got married, she should have dropped the Jeong surname and sent her away.”

Just like they do abroad.

“Do you think this is the Joseon Dynasty? In the 20th century Republic of Korea, women are also guaranteed the right to vote, property rights, and inheritance rights?”

“The Jeong family’s family tree is… … .”

“Since this is our first meeting, why would I know anything about the Jeong family’s laws?”

I crossed my arms.

“If you don’t like it, then drink it. After the old man passes away, this house will be a mess or something. It’s none of my business.”

“Okay. Take it.”

Elder Jeong Dong-jin took off the ring he was wearing willingly.

Then he threw it at me.

I snatched it lightly out of the air.

“That’s our Jeong family lineage.”

I opened my palm and checked the object.

‘No, why are you going to the Jeong family?’

No matter how I look at it, it seems right.

The letter ‘定’ engraved in the center of the camellia flower pattern, as well as the unknown numbers and strange grooves engraved on the inside of the ring are all exactly the same.

‘Is this ring mine?’

To be exact, the year I turned twenty.

This is the ring that my master gave me, declaring me his successor.

“It is also the seal used by the head of the Jeong family.”

What did you say?
