Solo Swordmaster - Chapter 70
Episode #70. It was all like this in the past.
“…Did you just call me stupid?”
“Then what would you say to a kid who is good at work but doesn’t know how to work? You have to be stupid.”
“…”
“Why? Don’t you understand what I’m saying?”
Seeing Wei Ling glaring at him with cold eyes, as if revealing his dissatisfaction, Limon let out a laugh.
“You fool. Do you know why the princess purposely made me a company like Guardian?”
“Isn’t it because the swordsman doesn’t have the heart or confidence to run a business?”
Wei-Ling openly sarcastic about Limon’s incompetence.
Seeing her like that, Limon shook his head slightly.
“No, even if I can’t work as an alumni, it’s because I want you to play the role of the inauguration.”
“What nonsense is that?”
“It means that there has never been a classmate in history like an idiot who rubbed his hands to ask the emperor for money because he was short of budget.”
Looking at Wei Ling, who frowned, Limon clicked his tongue.
Just by looking at her expression, you could tell that she didn’t understand what she was saying and that she didn’t have the heart to understand.
‘Tsk I was just going to focus on training for the time being.’
It doesn’t matter if you leave it like this.
Anyway, Wei Ling is competent, so the Guardian won’t be ruined.
Considering that he didn’t mention it directly, Li Qingyu was also looking forward to it, but he probably didn’t even intend to ask for it.
‘I can’t help it.’
Limon finally got up.
And he said it out loud.
“Hey, guide me.”
“Where?”
“Where would you like to be?”
Looking at Wei-Ling, who made a suspicious expression at the sudden remark, Limon gave a cold sneer.
“It’s a business that will give us money, work, and results.”
and two hours later.
Five subsidiaries of the Black Dragon Clan were barely established.
* * *
Wei Ling was used to being patient.
The Mu Gongjin Sword itself she learned is a Jeolhak that basically performs stealth and patience.
In addition, since he was a secret escort for Li Qing-yu, who had a deep mind and was dubious, he naturally had to get used to carrying out his duties silently without questioning them.
“…What are you thinking?”
But at this moment.
Despite the training time being overshadowed, Wei Ling had no choice but to ask questions.
“What do you mean?”
“I’m asking why you go around destroying affiliates of your clan.”
“Isn’t one of our company’s duties originally an inspection? So I just went around doing some inspections, so why do you need a reason there?”
Limon answered calmly.
In a sense, it was a theory.
Because the Guardian was a security guard inspection company dedicated to the Black Dragon clan affiliates.
Even so, there was a reason why Wei Ling had no choice but to question Limon as if he were looking at a gangster in the world.
“What kind of inspection is the act of breaking into the front door, knocking out the guards and everything, and overturning the office?”
After stepping out to get results.
Limon was an inspector, and what he did when he visited the affiliates of the Black Dragon clan was almost the same.
Once you hit the front door.
[I came to see the boss.]
[A promise? I didn’t do that.]
[Can’t meet without an appointment? no these don’t know who i am Tell the president to come out right away!]
They make a fuss about meeting the CEO.
[What? blocked? Are you trying to kick me out?]
[Come on, try it if you can!]
And if the security team security department or staff gather to stop the riot, that’s it.
Knock them all down, break into offices, overturn desks and cabinets, and dump all papers and furniture.
[Tsk, anyway, things these days. When I was young, the top bar stuck to the top all day long. Where the hell do the bosses hang out?]
[I’ll be back next time, so tell them not to leave and wait. Algan?]
Without even taking care of the overturned documents, he came out and threw them away.
The devastated expressions of the employees who saw the paperwork they had written after working all day being trampled on by Limon.
Even Wei Ling, who had just watched, couldn’t stand it without avoiding her eyes.
“Hmm, wasn’t that a bit like an inspector?”
“Do you mean that?”
Were you not aware of yourself?
Limon, who was scratching his cheek, shrugged his shoulders as he looked at Wei-Ling, who coldly fired at him.
“But isn’t it a bit harsh to cut down, fire, or put a few people in jail? Times have changed.”
“…what the hell is an inspection you know?”
“Yeah, you’re attacking anywhere and making a fuss so that no one can work, and if a rebel comes out, you’re beating them up, right?”
“You say that?”
“why? Wasn’t everything like this in the past?”
“…”
It seemed like something was wrong.
Looking at Limon who tilted his head and questioned him, Wei Ling was at a loss for words.
If I had rather pretended, I would have made a cynicism for being shameless. Seeing that face that seemed to be 100% sincere made me really speechless.
[Team leader, that’s not usually called inspection, right? Because it’s called kaengpan?]
“Is it something else?”
[Very different…]
“Hmm, that’s unexpected. I also thought that inspections were called kaengpan in the language these days.”
[How on earth did inspections take place in the past, so that such speculations come out naturally?]
It was so absurd.
Yuna-gyeong, the blue bird who sat on Limon’s head and asked the question on behalf of Wei-ling, shook her head excitedly when she heard Limon’s bold answer.
And Yuna-kyung and Wei-ling thought at the same time.
‘Princess, why did you choose such an anachronistic murderer as your sire?’
‘No matter how much I think about that princess, I think she got married wrong…’
Whether she knows what they think or not.
Limon, who was getting out of the car and walking around, suddenly opened his mouth when he saw the towering building in front of him.
“Hmm, this affiliate is pretty big. Do you think it’s a good place?”
[Team leader, don’t you know where this is?]
“It’s an affiliate of the Black Dragon clan. It’s just like the mission.”
[No, so you don’t know what kind of place Black Dragon Construction is.]
“Is this a place I need to know?”
[Usually, you should know. It is one of the world’s top 10 international construction companies in terms of sales and technology.]
Yuna-kyung was dumbfounded.
The Seven Dragons Group is a place that encroached on the wealth of the whole world.
Among those subsidiaries, there were several companies that were as large as, if not as big as, seven holding companies, and one of them was Black Dragon Construction.
It was a conglomerate that had grown by building Leviathan hotels around the world.
But Limon’s reaction was lukewarm.
“Well, it’s not the best, right?”
[…Among the construction companies, it’s not in the top 10?]
“You live up to my age, too. When you’re over 100 years old, remembering only the best in the world won’t bother you.”
After all, why should he care about one of those mediocre companies that didn’t even become the best?
Limon speaks calmly.
“You’d better be careful.”
Is it because of that arrogant attitude?
Wei Ling, who looked at Limon with cool eyes, continued with a cold voice.
“Although it may not be the best in the world, this is not a place where you can simply play a game unlike affiliates so far.”
“Ho?”
Even after hearing Wei Ling’s words, which were nothing short of threats, Limon smiled with anticipation instead of being nervous.
And as soon as the automatic door opened, he entered the building of Black Dragon Construction and shouted loudly.
Weeing!
“I want the boss to come out!”
“Yeah, the colonel here.”
“…huh?”
[Huh?]
Yuna-kyung, who was sitting on top of Limon’s head, made a dumbfounded expression.
It wasn’t just that I was embarrassed by the scenery of the lobby, which was almost empty, unlike a branch of a large corporation called Black Dragon Construction.
The moment Limon shouted.
It was because there was a person who appeared with his waist bent 90 degrees politely as if he had waited.
“who are you?”
“Ehehe, I call it the royal function. I’ve always respected swordsmiths, and it’s such an honor to meet you like this.”
“No, what are you doing?”
“Yes, of course he is the person the swordsman was looking for.”
“…You say you’re the boss here?”
“Let me formally introduce you. I am Wang Seong-sang, the head of the East Asia branch of Black Dragon Construction. I wish you well in the future.”
Limon looked at Wang Shikyeong, a middle-aged man who bowed again while holding out his business card, with strange eyes, then turned back.
Then, looking at Wei Ling who nodded, he made a more bizarre expression.
‘It’s nice that a big player came out more than I thought.’
Although Limon did not know much about Black Dragon Construction, he could tell that the head of the East Asia branch held a considerable position.
First of all, it was clear that he was the real power of Black Dragon Construction just by looking at the fact that he was in charge of overseeing the Seventy-seven Commonwealth of China.
“Are you really the head of the East Asia branch?”
“Of course I do.”
“But why are you so servile? It looks like you broke your back after that.”
“Oh, you are servile. Isn’t the swordsman the one who will soon marry the princess? Being polite to such a person is not servile, it is natural.”
“okay…?”
Mustaches on both sides.
A roaring smile all over your face.
Even the hands that rub like flies.
No matter how you look at it, it’s a moment to be embarrassed by the appearance of a king functioning like a cheating person or a flatterer rather than a businessman.
‘Well, you can’t judge a person by their appearance.’
Like Noh Kang-ho, who has had a long life experience, Limon, who had erased any prejudice from his appearance, opened his mouth.
“Then why are you jumping out? I found the boss here.”
“Oh, where is a swordsman like you looking for something like that? If you need anything, feel free to tell me, I will take care of it.”
That moment.
Limon smiled strangely.
“When you say that, does it sound like you knew I was coming?”
“Could it be possible? I just heard some rumors that some stupid and lazy people didn’t properly serve the swordsman.”
“You must have very good ears to hear rumors about what happened in just a few hours.”
“Yeah, I’m also from the Black Dragon clan. I guess I’m a bit more discerning than others.”
The king’s ability to speak as if it were natural.
But Limon had a deeper smile on his face.
Just looking at the fact that other companies that came before did not do the obvious, it was clear that Wang Shik-yeong was not a simple flatterer.
‘I thought I’d have to go around ten places, but I’m sure I’m lucky.’
“Ah, it would be uncomfortable to talk in a place like this, so how about going inside? Just because a good car came in.”
“It’s a nice car… not bad.”
Limon did not dare to refuse the invitation of the king.
So, after a while, Limon lost his senses for a while in the room he arrived at after being guided by Wang Yung-sang.
From old murals that take up an entire wall to crystal chandeliers and all sorts of furniture.
It wasn’t just because of the scenery of the office, which was decorated as luxuriously as the penthouse in the Leviathan Hotel.
As if he knew he was coming.
It was because of the savory pork belly and the rice wine bottle next to it.
“…was grain tea good?”
