“A little while ago, I called a lawyer and wrote a will. You didn’t put your name there either. Aren’t you sad?”
“I would be lying if I said I wasn’t sad.”
However, his face does not show any emotion, let alone sad.
“If I put my name on there for nothing, it’s just troublesome. Go and open the safe. The password is 982324871298.”
The old man called the twelve-digit number at once without any difficulty.
Secretary Liu put down the oil painting hanging on one side of the bedroom. Behind the old man’s favorite painting of Gauguin is a fairly large vault door.
Perhaps it was a fairly old thing, but it was a heavy dial-type safe, not a recent electronic one.
Liu put his hand on the dial and silently turned it left and right according to the number he had just heard.
When the door of the safe opens, a fairly heavy pile of papers is revealed.
“Bring the blue file folder over there.”
When the president’s words fell, Secretary Ryu found the only file covered with a blue cover in the pile of papers, took it out and returned to the chairman’s side.
“Choose one out of five there.”
Liu noticed that the documents divided into five volumes meant the president’s hidden wealth.
The president’s official sons are four, including the youngest, Geun-seok.
However, the fact that five chapters are ready means that the father has placed him in the same class as the other children from before.
Of course, Secretary Ryu is not moved or moved by that. It was because he knew all too well how much the president was like a raccoon.
It must have happened countless times in his lifetime to win someone’s heart.
It is not surprising that we have always been prepared to produce this kind of appearance.
Secretary Liu calmly picked up one of the documents.
“I will do this.”
“okay. I’m sorry I can only give you that.”
“no. This too is full of minutes.”
At the top of the document that Liu chose, there was a list of companies in Eastern Europe, such as Poland and Yugoslavia.
Perhaps the means to obtain it are written on the inside.
“Take these back and put them back.”
The chairman said while picking up the will and the blue file folder that the lawyer had written down earlier.
Secretary Liu quietly took the documents in the chairman’s hand, went back to the safe, put it back in, and turned the dial to lock it.
“The papers there are really important things.”
The old man’s voice was quieter than before, so it was difficult for the two who were listening to understand if he was really harmful.
“Among those who are out for politics, there is no one who has not received my allowance once. Even those in robes.”
The old man continued talking without knowing whether he was talking to the two of them or to himself.
“If you have a carrot, you should also have a whip in your hand. There is a list of red files, and the rest is a breakdown. If it were there, no one who pretends to have his name on it right now will be able to escape.”
There were materials dedicated to politicians and lawyers, which the business giants had as a last resort.
Of course, using this is by no means easy.
In the end, the person who gave the money must also be prepared to fall into the mud.
However, the present ocean was already covered in fire, not mud.
If there is an opportunity to use this, this is the moment.
The chairman seems to be trying to convince public opinion through a will and to find a way for the family members in crisis even by intimidating people from all walks of life.
“Oh, if there was a secretary, I would have entrusted it to him, but now you have to take the role.”
“All right.”
“I’m sorry for leaving you with a difficult task until the very end. Your brothers are not like you, so no one can trust you but you.”
“it’s okay. It seems like something I have to do anyway.”
Instead of calling him a brother for the rest of his life, he took care of the people who had to live with him as the owner, but Secretary Ryu did not show any unfairness.
“Now let’s have dinner. Come to think of it, it’s been too long since I’ve had dinner with you.”
The president said with a faint smile.
“yes. It’s been too long. In fact, I don’t even remember.”
However, Secretary Liu lifted his eyes upwards and showed the appearance of reviving old memories. For a moment, the two men forgot about their old quarrel and had a friendly conversation.
That evening, the president seemed to be really refreshed, and he happily ate the meal he had prepared with his son in the dining room.
After the meal, the chairman went back to bed, and Liu stayed there for a while in the living room as usual after that.
About nine o’clock the bedroom door opened and the president’s wife in a negligee came out.
“Are you okay, Chairman?”
“okay. you fell asleep You’re wearing a comfortable face for what made you feel so relieved.”
“I’m happy.”
“He was a great man. you.”
The president’s wife opened her mouth with a fishy expression on her face.
But Secretary Liu doesn’t say anything.
“How the hell were you hiding such a secret? No, was there any reason why we were hiding so much between us?”
Sitting across from Secretary Liu, the wife asked.
“I’m sorry I didn’t tell you in advance.”
“I’m sorry, where are you? But what now? The chairman said that all of the stake in the Daeyang Group would be contributed to the company?”
“That’s right.”
“It’s not like that. over 1 trillion. Where do you get a penny or two?”
“But the president’s decision is like that, so what can we do?”
“You just have to find a way.”
The woman crossed her legs and smiled bitterly.
At Liu’s order, all the employees in the house have already left work, or there are only two left in the basement of the employee’s room, so there are only two people in the living room.
Secretary Liu stared at his father’s young wife with a tired look.
That evening, an ambulance returned to his home in Itaewon-dong and took the elderly man back to the hospital.
Everyone involved in the evening’s transfer was forced to remain silent, and the fact that the chairman was moved to a ward deep inside the affiliated hospital was not known to the outside world.

“So it means that my father also has a part to play.”
Sunggyu asked.
As always, Sunggyu, who was spending time in a private club room in Gangnam, was met by an unexpected visit from his uncle, and the uncle, who was not listed in the family register, said something completely unexpected.
“okay. There were exactly four documents.”
Even if they are holding hands, it is not necessary to reveal all the facts.
A nephew has secrets like his nephew, and there are many things that an uncle does not tell like an uncle.
“In addition to the overseas corporations that have been revealed in the investigation so far, there must be other things that are operating in secret. And when you see that you took it as soon as you wake up, it must be quite a fortune.”
“Is that so?”
“But it’s an application. It’s not funny. Just give up that much money? It’s absurd.”
The Daeyang Group was disbanded and their foreign assets were discovered, but they still possessed a lot.
And I was going to present the biggest part of them, but I couldn’t leave it as it is.
“Old man, you are heartbroken until the last road. I really… … .”
Very few people know that the president of the Daeyang Group, who fell asleep comfortably in bed that evening, will never be able to open his eyes again.
And they were delaying announcing that fact.
The giant who dominated an era like this did not receive the attention of the world and quietly disappeared.
“That will, I must tear it down.”
It’s a reasonable idea. Neither Seong-gyu nor Liu, who is in this position, can gain anything by executing the will.
Punished are the brothers, uncles, and fathers whom they dislike. I had no intention of being of any help to them.
“Inspiration changed the password again. She also doesn’t know the password, so she can’t open the safe. Maybe someone knows the new password. The woman doesn’t seem to know either. His face turned blue when he found out that the safe wouldn’t open.”
Secretary Liu said expressionless as always. The president seems to have changed the password of the safe without his wife’s knowledge.
The president did not completely believe in his hidden son or even his wife.
“I have blocked off contacting the lawyer right away and notifying the outsider. Once I had the time, all I could do was open the safe, take out the will, and burn it.”
“Who the hell knows the password?”
Sunggyu asked with a funny expression.
“I thought you would know. Doesn’t it look like it?”
Secretary Ryu asked with a strange smile.
“Could you tell me something important to me after I was kicked out of the house?”
“Is that so?”
“Probably one of the three brothers. Seeing that she doesn’t know, she’s not the youngest.”
At Sunggyu’s words, Secretary Ryu thought of the three older brothers he had only met a few times. And one of them died in a car accident a year ago, so one of them is left.
Ryu Geun-ho, president of Daeyang Motors, who is still in prison, or Ryu Geun-su, the father of Sung-gyu, is wandering around Europe for fear of being arrested if he enters the country.
“It is possible that both of you know.”
“Yes. If they open the safe, the will and the documents will be taken away.”
Just as the chairman’s stake is taken away by revealing the will, the overseas assets of the chairman hidden in the documents are also precious to lose.
“Did you call the safe opener?”
“Sure. But it was a failure. It’s usually not complicated.”
“Should I open the lid?”
“It’s also difficult. The woman said that if you forcefully open the safe, chemicals will come out and destroy the documents.”
“It’s difficult… … .”
If the documents are damaged, not only the will but also the data about the property hidden abroad will be blown away.
Only the chairman knows which is greater, the stake mentioned in the will or the foreign property.
The 12-digit password for the safe is too much to try one by one.
The president wanted all his sons to get a share until the last minute.
It was the last thing he did to calm himself down before he died to make sure one or two people never took it all.
“I guess I should find out.”
“Can you?”
“Of course. How long did it take Instead, it is thirds.”
Sunggyu laughed bitterly.
“Sure. Let the three of us share it equally.”
Secretary Ryu or the president’s widow can’t get their share without knowing the password.
The two had already opened the safe and talked about how to share it.
Of course, no one knows what happened back then. However, all three of them were people who could show a smile if they needed cooperation, no matter how inappropriate they were.
Another conspiracy was being created before and after the death of the founder of the Daeyang Group, unknown to the world.
