Seo Kang-jae ran and grabbed the aide’s forearm and helped him. He clung to his forearm in an awkward position about to kneel.
“I will guide you to the entrance.”
I hurriedly turned back, holding back laughter at the sight of a drunkard being taken away. I put my hands behind my back and coughed.
“Boss, that’s not it…”
“The next time you come, make sure to promise to come. Do you think this opportunity will come twice?”
Seo Kang-jae’s booming voice covered his words. I wanted to see with my own eyes the expression that must have been a tear, but I held back to pretend to be angry.
thud.
There was the sound of the door closing.
Seo Kang-jae brushed his hands and came inside.
“Have you sent your guests?”
thump thump.
I heard an aide knocking on the front door, and there was a scuffle outside. It seemed that there had been an argument with the bodyguard who was guarding the door.
Seo Kang-jae shrugged and headed for the front door. I took a seat at an angle where I couldn’t see inside from the front door and watched his actions.
he opened the door
“To President Kim, I…”
“If you damage the property, I will charge you for repairs. What did you say your name was?”
“No. So.”
“Can I make a claim to Congressman Yusan Lee?”
“Kuhm.”
I heard the aide’s coughing.
“I’ll be in touch, so please tell me to pick up the phone.”
“My boss doesn’t answer strange numbers.”
“My phone number is···.”
“Please pass it on through someone who knows our boss. If you’re really an aide, you must have that kind of personal connection, right?”
“therefore···.”
“Ah. I’m sure you’ll hear someone say that you sent them in without checking your identity again. Go quickly.”
Seo Kang-jae got angry and closed the door.
I confirmed that he was Lee Yoo-san’s aide through the CCTV installed in front of the front door and let me in, but I don’t think you need to tell me that.
he brushed his hands.
“Everything strange is twisted.”
“That’s right.”
“Didn’t you just not let them in?”
“No. Thanks to you, I have an excuse.”
Behaved rudely and kicked out.
That was a good enough excuse.
Since I had threatened not to answer unknown numbers, I had an excuse not to answer the phone.
“What should I do next time I come back?”
“If Congressman Lee Yu-san didn’t come directly, please kick him out.”
I’m not the one who will come in person, so I’ll have to go to America quickly within that time.

A happy message has arrived from the United States.
It was Walter Sanford.
{(Mr. Kim. Decided to consider setting up Disneyland in South Korea.)}
“(Has it already been decided?)”
Even as the chairman of the board of directors, it was a quicker decision than expected. More than anything, I was happy that Duzny had made a positive decision.
{(Mr. Kim is more famous than I thought. I didn’t know he was working with Mr. Evins.)}
Giants meet giants.
Walter Sanford seems to have been quite close to Hugo Evans. Since I was still actively working with him in relation to the resource business, he would have said something positive about me.
{(It hasn’t been completely confirmed yet. We plan to proceed if we carefully review the investment and determine that it is feasible. This part may change depending on how good conditions Mr. Kim presents?)}
“(hahahaha. We will present good conditions for mutual benefit.)”
{(That’s good. And I heard that you’re really good at investing in stocks.)}
Hugo Evans and Brayden Harper were often pitched. It was nice to be able to get to know you quickly thanks to you…
‘I never thought they would spread this rumor.’
I don’t know if this is why he is becoming famous among heavyweights as the stock king Kim Jae-gu.
‘Should I make a reading room?’
I thought that it might be better if I could win the hearts of many people with a limited number of sports.
{(Did you secure the site?)}
“(The purchase has not started yet.)”
{(As you know, you need a space of more than 150,000 pyeong to create Dunesney Land. I heard that it is not easy to secure a land of that size in Korea.)}
“(Don’t worry about that part. We have someone to help you with this.)”
{(Are you a government official?)}
“(Yes, that’s right.)”
Due to its enormous scale, Disneyland has been hosted by most countries. My personal contact was unusual.
{(As expected. Did you come to see me on a request?)}
“(hahahaha. No. I was really thinking of making it at my own expense if the state doesn’t step out.)”
{(They said Mr. Kim would have that level of ability. It’s really amazing.)}
I don’t know what Hugo Evans said about me, but I’m glad it sounded good.
{(I would like you to contact me often in the future. We will send you our proposal by tomorrow.)}
“(I look forward to it.)”
Do we really need to create a leadership room for this?

The proposal from Disneyland was quite reasonable. I was able to understand at a glance thanks to the proper arrangement of the investment and profit distribution of the existing businesses.
‘There are no unreasonable provisions, it’s a conscientious proposal.’
This time, it was time for me to prepare myself.
‘I’ve talked about in advance which area to put in if Disney Land is to be put in.’
A place where there is more than 150,000 pyeong of land even though it is away from the residential area. At the same time, there were not many areas where access could be secured by breaking through a major road.
When the candidate he supported was elected, Seol Gyeong-taek picked out and designated an area where he could help with the installation of infrastructure.
Thanks to this, I was able to start buying land right away without having to worry. It was clear that it would take a lot of time to purchase 150,000 pyeong of land.
‘Because I just have to consider the land purchase cost and distribute the stake.’
We decided to aim to purchase the land below the land price suggested by Disneyland.
After rejecting Yoosan’s aide, he evaded the trail using three vehicles. I got into another car instead of my original car and went to a coffee shop on the outskirts of town.
Like a rural coffee shop, I couldn’t see if the owner had gone out either. Instead, CEO Yang Dong-yoon came out and greeted me.
“Boss above God. Welcome. Loyalty Loyalty!”
I was dumbfounded by President Yang Dong-yoon’s loud greetings.
I was so dumbfounded that I didn’t even think about sitting down, so I looked at him, and he grabbed my hand and brought me to the sofa.
“Let’s sit down and talk. My boss hurts his legs when he’s standing.”
“It’s embarrassing.”
“Is that so? I’m sorry. Ha ha ha ha.”
The last time I bought a pear farm, I touched a lot of money, so my clothes were all changed to new ones. A flashing tie pin caught my eye.
“Oh? This one. I picked one of these up at a department store. They cost only 100 million won each.”
He’s a frivolous person, but he’s good at one thing.
“There’s no way my boss just asked to meet. What big deal did you call this time?”
“I’m trying to buy land in Mars.”
“This time on Mars? Last time you said you were making an orchard, what are you going to do this time?”
“Shall we make another orchard?”
“How big of an orchard will you make this time?”
He rubbed his hands and smiled.
“I’m thinking about 150,000 pyeong.”
“A 150,000 pyeong orchard?”
Yang Dong-yoon opened his mouth wide.
‘Then I’ll drop my jaw.’
no. dad is a prince
When we brought up the story of purchasing 150,000 pyeong of land for the construction of Disney Land, Yang Dong-yoon and Lee Shin-ae opened their mouths.
“150,000 pyeong… boss. I’m sorry, but didn’t you say 15,000 pyeong by mistake?”
Dongyoon Yang shook his head in disbelief.
“It’s 150,000 pyeong.”
“No… What on earth are you going to buy 150,000 pyeong for?”
“Does the use matter?”
The pledge hadn’t even come out yet, so I didn’t want to talk about Dunesneyland.
When he narrowed his brows slightly, Yang Dong-yoon waved his hand in amazement.
“No. No. Rather, it doesn’t matter how much you buy it for. If you buy it below budget like last time, is the rest an incentive?”
He smiled servilely and rubbed his hands.
“Yes. But this time, you shouldn’t buy it in a way that will cause gossip.”
“Isn’t that a pig farm?”
“It’s not possible.”
“Keep…”
Yang Dong-yoon made a sound of pain.
“Then there is no merit.”
“I’ll buy it the right way this time.”
I deserved to lose because I treated the people of my hometown and my family badly. However, the people of Hwaseong City were people I did not know.
If there is a big friction in the process of purchasing Disneyland, it is not known that the image of the future member of the National Assembly will be scratched.
‘The price of the land will definitely rise when the word comes out that Disneyland is coming in, so it’s better to buy it before then.’
Most of the area was blind, so there was no problem with land prices.
“This is a summary of the official land price and current transaction price in the area.”
It was the contents of Benjamin Chung’s investigation. The document contained the land price, the owner, and the phone numbers of the landlords.
At the end, the combined value was written, but it was 800 billion won without incentives based on the current market price. Amusement parks could also be built in forests. Even taking into account the cutting of the mountain, he suggested the price.
It was an area where I had already talked with Seol Gyeong-taek.
‘I make the purchase.’
If the bid for Disneyland is confirmed, the price of the land will rise, so market profit can be expected.
Dongyoon Yang scratched his cheek.
“I won’t even pay for activities like this.”
“If you want to purchase land without a gap, you may have to add a little more money, so please negotiate with 850 billion won.”
5 billion was proposed. If it could be purchased at the market price, it was Yang Dong-yoon’s share.
“I don’t know if I can buy it all with 850 billion.”
“Isn’t bargaining your boss’ specialty?”
“Yeah, but it is.”
It was the look I wanted to take care of more. But this is enough for them. The price could have been reduced through negotiation.
So I decided to go tough.
“If you don’t like it, I’ll find someone else.”
“Hey. Boss!”
As I pretended to get up, Yang Dong-yoon hurriedly grabbed my arm.
“Why are you so impatient? Who said you shouldn’t do it? It’s just not easy. That’s it.”
“So you mean?”
“Let’s do it. Instead, this time there is one condition.”
“What is?”
“I’ll take care of the contract in a snap, so please take care of the expenses for me as well.”
This time, Lee Shin-ae was not included, so there was no reason to refuse. For 800 billion won of land, real estate costs alone were close to 8 billion won.
It was a deal that was hard to give up, even considering the cost of the job.
“All right.”
“And there’s one more.”
“The conditions keep increasing.”
“But since you said you shouldn’t use expedients… even if I do my best, there may be areas I can’t buy.”
That was right. No matter how much Yang Dong-yoon was, it could be difficult to convince everyone 100%. A few people might have tried eggplant, like when buying land in Silicon Valley.
Last time, I bought it easily thanks to the expedient of farm wastewater, but this time I asked to go neatly.
“At that time, can I only get the market value of the area I bought?”
Dongyoon Yang picked up the paper I handed over and shook it.
‘It must have been quite a burden to pay the price even though all land purchases have to be completed.’
That much was acceptable.
“great.”
“Of course, you will also take care of the uniform, right?”
“yes.”
“Okay. Then I’ll take this job.”
Yang Dong-yoon hurriedly gathered the documents as if he was afraid that someone might steal his work.
“When is the deadline?”
“Let’s do an interim inspection in a month.”
“Who can I sign a contract with?”
“I’ll send an agent.”
