The Highest Level Son of a Chaebol Family - Chapter 334



Only Noblemtl

334. Very good

Why is this guy begging me for his life all of a sudden?

“The number is wrong?”

You should have knelt down and begged to our father, not me.

But my father shook his head.

“I have no intention of taking in a guy who is out of favor with my son either.”

“But this guy… … .”

“It was a relationship that was already cut off when I kicked out the Jeong family.”

Father let out a small sigh.

“Jeonghyeok, you even burned the blood oath. So there’s no need to discuss the favor between us.”

“Is that okay with you?”

He was a person who was so close that he was even sworn brothers with his father.

“He is not a person fit for Taesung Group, so I don’t think I will keep him by my side.”

My father added one more word without saying anything.

“You said you would take over the Jeong family. I don’t think you need to get involved in such a dangerous business.”

It looked bitter.

“I heard about the Jeong family’s situation. That the Japanese were planning to eat them up. And how they blew up the Japanese yakuza’s drug scandal.”

My father held out a black folder that he had been carrying at his side.

It was a file folder with the Jungjeong mark clearly stamped on it.

‘Why is this golden?’

I flipped through the files as if I was possessed.

‘This is an interrogation log received from the Japanese yakuza in the central government.’

As I read through the document, I couldn’t help but feel a little amazed.

‘Hey, how did I get so involved with the Northcorp Gate that I’m trying to blow up?’

It was somehow golden!

You’re lucky!

“Jeong-hyeok, it seems that not only the Japanese yakuza and businessmen, but also famous figures in the political world have their eyes on the Jeong family’s wealth.”

A look of worry appeared on my father’s face.

“It’s like throwing an egg at a rock. No matter how hard you try to protect that property, it will be taken away without any way to be done. So let’s just pretend it doesn’t exist.”

That can’t be happening.

“I promised Mr. Jeong Dong-jin that I would take care of the household and debts. I also have no intention of ignoring the real estate company that my maternal grandfather passed down to me.”

I winked one eye.

“If things are so tangled up in a dirty way, we should untie them properly at least once.”

“Would you like to have a blast in Japan?”

The southeastern skunk, kneeling, immediately opened its mouth.

“Then I promise to make you suffer more than I deserve.”

“How much is your life worth?”

“It’s enough to prevent an eight-year-old child from being threatened with death by the Japanese yakuza.”

It meant that he would volunteer to be a shield and arrow catcher.

‘There’s no need to refuse if you want to step forward and take my place as the leader of the assault team.’

The Southeast Skunk was one of the seven giants of Japan’s underground financial world, exerting great influence in many countries around the world, including South Korea.

He was known to be generous, smart, and cruel to the point of being venomous, but also clear about what he did and what he owed.

It was obvious that things would be much easier if someone of that caliber took the lead.

If there’s just one thing that catches your eye.

“Don’t you think you’re being too stiff for someone begging for their life?”

“There is someone else I have sworn allegiance to.”

The southeast skunk glanced at his father.

“I’m not so shameless as to not know the favor of being spared from the court. I will never hit Sungjun on the back of the head again.”

With this, the old grudge between father and skunk seems to have been settled.

“I have no intention of being petty since we have already achieved independence. Instead, I will make sure to pay the price for my life and that of my subordinates.”

“So you’re offering a life-or-death trade in lieu of an oath of loyalty?”

“What should I do?”

“What can I do?”

“I can handle most things within my capabilities. So just tell me.”

I farted.

“Just looking at the contract, it seems like things are going to be a mess.”

“If you make a mess of it like that, the people involved will also be in trouble.”

The southeastern skunk straightened his clothes and sprayed perfume on me.

To get rid of the fishy smell that had built up on my body in the serving room.

“Have you heard of the saying, ‘The bigger the net of vested interests, the more difficult it is for even the big shots to escape.”

Hemp is immortal.

It was a strategy that even smuggling kings often used.

It actually tasted good.

‘It was one of the reasons why the smuggling king could claim to be the loser of Busan for a long time, and when you look at the fact that the Japanese couldn’t easily touch Mr. Jeong Dong-jin even when he was seriously ill, you can see the power of Daema Bulsa.’

Suddenly, the future of this man in front of me came to mind.

The Southeast Skunk was a man who managed to overcome the Chinese underworld and the Japanese Yakuza while eventually becoming one of the seven big shots in Japan’s underground financial world.

‘This is the immortal net that this man has been working on for over ten years.’

That must be why the Japanese real estate ledgers my maternal grandfather gave me were so complicated and flashy.

Honestly, it’s quite appealing.

What should I do?

“What can I do for you?”

The eyes of the southeast skunk flashed.

Full of enthusiasm and confidence.

“I can protect the things you want to protect, Your Majesty. Would you mind if I put in the effort to block information from Japan and overseas?”

“How?”

“I will try to refer to your techniques.”

My method?

“This incident clearly taught us that rather than blocking information, it is more effective to divert people’s attention or openly confuse them by mixing in false information.”

The southeast skunk spoke slyly.

“I leak different information to the Chinese underworld, the Russian mafia, the Hong Kong Triad League, and the Taiwanese Four Seas Gang. As you might have guessed, I have quite a few collaborators on those routes.”

It was a tempting suggestion.

“I am also confident in mobilizing landlords in the Tokyo area and forming public opinion. That is my specialty.”

The southeastern skunk laughed meaningfully.

“I will keep your identity completely hidden. So that you won’t even be able to guess your existence.”

Those who work in the shadows are known only by their names and nicknames, and their detailed personal information is always kept top secret.

That was the unwritten rule of this world, and it was also a survival strategy.

“I don’t think so?”

“……yes?”

Why are you so surprised?

“Meat tastes better when you tear it, and it tastes better when you use strength, right?”

It’s something I never even dreamed of in my previous life when I was a loan shark.

When my adopted son, Kang-woo, was almost kidnapped, I was so scared that I hid myself.

Because I don’t want those who hold a grudge against me to target my son.

Because I don’t want my existence to become an obstacle that interferes with Kang-woo’s normal life.

I hope Kang-woo can live happily, proudly carrying his name on his back.

So, I hid behind the nickname of Shillim-dong Ant Hell and worked hard to erase my identity and personal information.

But in this life, I’m going to try to live a little differently.

“I have no money, no power, no ability?”

My background is too flashy to hide as a person from the back alley world.

“Anyway, I have to live my life by exchanging business cards. If I’m going to live like that, I might as well play in bigger games.”

“Do you want to follow in your master’s footsteps and become a loan shark king, or even the greatest loan shark king in Japan?”

“Will that be okay?”

Now that I look at him, I see that he is a gentleman with modest dreams and small ambitions.

I also thought he was a very ambitious man, since he was one of the seven big shots in Japan’s underground financial world.

“I’d rather be Japan’s best investment entrepreneur than Japan’s best loan shark.”

It’s really strange.

The result of investing my money in a company is the same, but some people are called shady financial parasites while others are called great investment tycoons.

Even during my days as a loan shark and a big name in South Korea’s underground financial world, my specialty was corporate investment.

He created wealth by selecting profitable companies, pushing and pulling them forward, and buying unprofitable companies, breaking them up, and reselling them.

But in this life, you have one more choice.

“I am also a third-generation chaebol and the next head of Taesung Group.”

Why are conglomerates conglomerates?

This is because, unlike the nouveau riche, they can exert great social influence.

“Playing with stocks and money alone is not enough.”

The difference between a moneylender and a professional investor lies in what is legal and what is illegal.

Instead of playing around with interest, I plan to grab a share of the company and do business properly.

“You’ve been working in Japan for over ten years and have been in charge of investments in corporate bonds for Mr. Jeong Dong-jin, so you must be very familiar with the inside story of that company, right?”

“Of course.”

“I’m thinking of picking a few promising Japanese companies and taking a bite out of them.”

“A Japanese company? Would that work?”

“What else won’t work?”

In fact, the 1980s was a period marked by the dominance of Japanese companies.

How many Japanese companies are ranked in the world market capitalization rankings?

A total of 16 Japanese companies were listed in the top 20, and 33 Japanese companies were listed in the top 50.

Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT), a Japanese company with the world’s largest market capitalization, once set a record by itself of being more than three times larger than IBM, the second largest company.

“You say that Daemabulsa is a big deal? Then, you must have heard about the octopus-like management of Korean conglomerates, right?”

Southeast Skunk, this is similar to your trick, but with a slightly different ending.

“The chaebols’ strategy of increasing their subsidiaries is a more refined version of the strategy of not giving up on marijuana and packaging it in a way that is more appealing to others.”

I poked my chest with my index finger.

“You mean, I also happen to run an investment firm headquartered in the United States?”

I winked one eye.

“Since we’re already here, let’s advance into Japan and make it hot.”

“Even if I were to give it my all, it would be difficult to buy even one major Japanese company.”

“I have investments and shares that Mr. Jeong Dong-jin has invested since the Japanese colonial period, right?”

If not, why would the executives of the Japan Business Federation bring the yakuza and the LDP members to Korea?

Just look at the threats they gave me and you’ll get a clear idea.

Measures to freeze foreign private debt.

What that meant was that he desperately wanted to somehow get rid of Mr. Jeong Dong-jin’s debt from the company’s shares.

It would be a breeze compared to me starting from scratch and taking over a company.

“Just wait and see. How can I buy up Japanese companies at a shit price?”

“That’s a very tempting goal.”

The Southeast Skunk had eyes full of interest, curiosity, anger and resentment.

“When they needed money, they would crawl to the master on their knees and grab his trouser leg to beg him. But now, they are acting so mean and ignoring people, saying that they have some power in the global market. I am sick and tired of that Chosun-jing and that dirty loan shark.”

The skunk in the southeast gritted its teeth.

“If it is to advance into the sunny area as a proper business, it is a great undertaking that the owner has longed for. I will gladly contribute to it.”

“Okay. If you’re ready, I won’t decline.”

“Then I will also submit a petition… … .”

“Did you leave it to me?”

Do I look like an X who accepts petitions from just anyone?

In my previous life, when I was young, I owed a debt to the four big shots, not you.

“Do you want to be protected as my subordinate? Then you must prove your loyalty through actions first.”

“Protection? So, I am talking to you, Master?”

“Then do you think it would be the other way around? I find that really absurd.”

“… … .”

There’s no need to make such a ridiculous face.

“Who is that kneeling down right now begging for help?”

“… … .”

It seems like he only came to his senses then.

“Okay. Take the ledger and follow me.”

“Huh? Are you really thinking of leaving for Japan right away like this… ?”

“When did I go to Japan?”

I clicked my tongue.

“I said I would actively cooperate with this work, and I haven’t lost my mind. If I have any more breath left, I have to work.”

I immediately picked up the phone.

The call was connected before it could even ring a few times.

“Mr. Shim, I’ll bring some workers to organize the accounts.”

-No, how long has it been since I called you and you’ve already hired workers?

President Shim’s bewildered voice was heard over the phone.

-But unfortunately, even if you are a professional accountant for Japanese companies, it doesn’t seem like it will be of much help.

No, why?

-Because it was written so crudely and in an old-fashioned manner. This isn’t like some back-alley gangsters writing up a ledger.

My eyes narrowed on sight as I looked at the skunk in the southeast.

“I’m going to take the people who wrote the Nakamura Real Estate accounting management ledger.”

-No, how on earth did you catch those guys?

Roughly, cleverly, skillfully, to the best of your ability?

“You want to work under me?”

-Very good.

President Shim shouted solemnly like a general facing the final battle.

-I’ll take this opportunity to teach those kids a lesson in the JH Investment way of doing business.
