The Youngest Son Of A Rich Family - Chapter 17

[017] The Age of the Common Man 2.

“Oh! Are you giving me too much homework? haha.”

The loud laugh of Congressman Park.

It was a smile that showed that I was in a good mood.

“Since the president made such a big decision, my shoulders are much lighter. great. I will draft it in the proper line.”

“I will be prepared to a certain extent… Our lawmakers should avoid the Blue House’s unholy orders. Please draw a picture that will satisfy your Excellency. haha.”

A step back and concession. What is Grandpa’s intention?

“this this. I’m blind, so… I finally noticed. Draw. Please tell me, Chairman.”

I also didn’t notice this. There was another reason for making such a concession!

I couldn’t tell from the back view, but the grandfather seemed to be smiling.

“Then I will say something without hesitation. After talking about democratization last year, don’t even the workers come out to the streets now? When the young squid jumps, the goby jumps as well. It’s barely enough to live on.”

“Oh, you mean that?”

“yes. No factories are running properly because of a general strike or something. They are the ones who take to the streets immediately after the company closes… This is true…”

Riding the wave of democratization, workers also poured out into the streets to seek their rights.

What President Jin is saying right now is to stop them.

“Um… that issue is a top priority for us as well. don’t worry too much Since it is in the early stages of my inauguration, I am refraining from hard-line suppression, but I will resolve it before the Olympics.”

“How many months is it going to be a problem? Just hold the steering wheel in the right direction.”

“You don’t have to worry about that part. Are there any more?”

“The NSP must be hectic these days, right?”

“Have those kids ever been busy? ah! Without notice again… haha.”

Rep. Park shook his head and laughed.

“The union seems to be having a lot of trouble.”

“I have received several reports that their movements are unusual.”

“I heard that Sunyang’s information power is equal to that of the National Security Agency, but how can our children be any different?”

“Comparing a few quick-footed employees with the national intelligence agency. It’s unreasonable.”

Even mobilize the National Security Agency? Just to figure out the trend of the union?

It is the power of the money invested so far that can make such a powerful state institution private.

How much did you pay for your election campaign?

“Let’s turn three or four lines. You will receive the results soon.”

“Thank you for your consideration.”

The secret conversation ended with the grandfather’s final greeting. After exchanging good wishes, I heard the sound of the door opening and the sound of footsteps moving away.

and.

The sliding door slid open and Chairman Jin appeared.

“Do-joon, have you been waiting for a long time? Did you eat a lot?”

He pulled out a chair and sat next to me.

It’s only been two months since we met during winter vacation, but President Jin asked me about the past two months as if we had met for the first time in years.

Studying hard is all the correct answer I can say.

While I was talking, President Jin checked the table.

“Do-joon.”

“yes.”

“Tell me honestly. Did you hear everything Grandpa was saying in that room a moment ago?”

There are almost no empty plates or reduced food. He noticed right away that I had neglected to eat.

Should I say I heard it all this time? The sliding door that was left slightly open was on purpose so that I could hear it clearly.

But eavesdropping is not a good thing. I lowered my eyes and lowered my head, the natural behavior of a child who was found guilty.

“You bastard. lift your head It’s not okay for a guy to keep his head down all the time.”

I could feel Chairman Jin’s hand caressing my bowed head. A hand without warmth. this man is getting old

“Did you understand all the conversations this old lady had?”

It is a look full of anticipation.

What if I nod my head now? That expectation will turn into joy, but it cannot. I shook my head.

It has already given me enough joy. Joy is multiplied by sharing a little when needed. And it was too political for an 11-year-old to understand.

But I wanted to give you a little gift. Because I’m not heartless enough to completely turn a blind eye to those disappointed eyes.

“But I do have a question.”

“Curiosity is a good thing. What?”

“The person who was with my grandfather earlier was the president’s subordinate, right?”

“Load? That’s how it is.”

Chairman Jin showed great curiosity about what kind of questions I would ask.

“Why is Grandpa meeting his subordinate? If you are the president of our country’s biggest company, shouldn’t you meet the president?”

I was genuinely curious. No matter how much he is the crown prince of the 6th Republic, it is not a level that the chairman of the Sunyang Group should meet in person.

I wanted to hear the reason.

“Do-joon.”

“yes.”

“You also hear rumors about this and that when you go to school, don’t you? Some say he’s really nice, some say he’s a bitch, and some say he’s good at fighting. is not it?”

“yes. I hear a lot.”

“Especially, if the friend who relays the rumor is very close to Do-jun or someone you can trust like the class president, you will think the rumor is accurate. That is the trap.”

The Trap of Accurate Rumors. No, it’s a trap when you trust the forwarder.

“You can’t believe what other people say. Even if it’s just a friend. The more important it is, the more so. You should always check for yourself.”

“Then did you check it yourself?”

“okay. It just confirms how much I appreciate your help. And… a lot of things.”

“yes.”

President Jin, who looked closely at my reply with a nod of his head, confirmed to me again.

“Do-joon, do you remember what this grandfather said in the past? Did you say it was important?”

I shook my head very quickly. What do you want to check at this point?

“You don’t have to know what Grandpa is saying, but don’t forget. And remember it whenever you need it. Is that right?”

“okay. right. In the same way, you must remember what I just said.”

“yes. grandfather.”

“And one more. You must be a listener, not an explainer.”

You should be the one who listens, chooses and decides one more. Chairman Jin today did not surrender to the real power of the current administration.

The saying that we will follow the big picture drawn by the government is also in this context. It is not too late to make a decision after hearing Park’s plan. If you don’t like it, it’s enough to appeal to realistic difficulties and change it.

Chairman Jin was only polite in his tone, but he instructed Rep. Park to submit a plan, just as he would do with his subordinates.

The one who proposes first is the abbreviation and Eul.

When I realized Chairman Jin’s true intentions, I smiled spontaneously. I have no idea how he interpreted my smile, but Chairman Jin also looked satisfied.

“It’s a pity, but I guess I’ll have to be content with seeing our Do-joon’s face today. This halbi is a bit busy. Instead, make sure to come to Grandpa’s house on Children’s Day. Let’s play together.”

“yes!”

I had to answer as if I was very happy. Because there is no child who hates Children’s Day.

* * *

Chairman Jin, who sent his grandson home, entered the main room again. I don’t know when he appeared, but the middle-aged man sitting on the sofa jumped up when Chairman Jin appeared.

“Just sit down. You’re too stiff to wear. What are you being so polite about?”

“no. Maybe it’s a habit? haha.”

“Did you treat Congressman Park well?”

“yes. I was taken to a special room downstairs. I gave a new female singer to take a break while smelling the powder.”

“good job. If it’s that human woman, I can’t come to my senses. How about the banquet hall?”

“I handed out one copy to each first-time lawmaker in attendance. And…”

The middle-aged man added, raising the corner of his mouth a little.

“I also identified those who were flirting with the models placed in the banquet hall. I ordered to prepare a table for you as soon as the banquet is over.”

It’s a place where you can figure out who likes money, who likes women, and who likes both at once.

Of course, there will be guys who shun women and refuse money.

This is the advantage of widely distributing bribes. A list of the ones to be filtered out is quickly created, and the subject of intensive management comes out.

How many days have you been elected? Do you rush to take money and drool at a woman?

These careless bastards end with one member of the National Assembly. no two times

It is necessary to raise the subject of intensive care and make it a mild sheep. Aren’t these the advance guards of Sunyang?

“good job.”

It seems that today’s work is roughly finished. Chairman Jin raised his cup of tea with a much more relaxed mind.

“how is it? What do you think Congressman Park will bring?”

“Does it matter what you bring out? Our cruisers only need to secure Soviet natural gas resources.”

“Are you confident?”

The middle-aged man did not avoid the gaze of President Jin, who was looking at him.

“LNG comes in one after another. It’s a table prepared by Sunyang, so you have to eat alone. I am confident.”

There was infinite trust in Chairman Jin’s eyes as he looked at the middle-aged man who answered with a smile.
