The crazy villain regains his sanity - Episode 183
183fury
I am met with puzzled looks as I obediently accept it..
In particular, the President and Cheon Myeong-guk attempted to look into my inner thoughts as if they wanted to know what I was thinking..
Does that action mean you don’t trust me? You're seeing it right through..
“Zhou Quan is a very suspicious person. He wants to get assurances about his safety by coming to Korea..”
“You can do anything you want with words..”
“That's not enough confidence. He is demanding government assurance regarding Choi Jun-ho's threats..”
Chen Ming-guo explains that Zhou Quan is aware of the threats I can pose to him..
With recent preparations for hereditary succession in progress, his notoriety is said to be sky-high..
Although he is a superhuman, he is a person who has committed more evil deeds than the villain. As the saying goes, evil is diligent, and he brought in the government of the Republic of Korea for his personal safety..
I've only seen super people who were so overconfident that they were borderline frigid, but seeing someone so sensitive and cautious is something I can't get used to..
But this is smart. Since that's enough, you probably eat it all yourself..
“Zhou Quan expressed his intention to pay 1 trillion won as a request fee and purchase 10 trillion won worth of awakened weapons and military supplies if his safety was guaranteed..”
10A trillion dollars is a significant amount of revenue for the government. I thought Zhou Quan had a good head..
“I guess I just have to accept it..”
“yes. But I think it might go in a different direction than Superin’s plan..”
“it's okay.”
All you have to do is find a way and break your promise..
“…All right.”
Cheon Myeong-guk nodded with a very uncomfortable expression, as if he knew what I was thinking. You know me well.
“But is it okay for a dictator to leave his seat like that??”
“It is said that more than 1,000 intellectuals have been arrested recently through repression..”
“Do you clean before coming abroad??”
“You can look at it that way..”
“Incredible.”
After concluding the Zhou Quan story, I brought up one more main point that came to the Blue House..
“I would like to purchase additional missiles.”
Chinese missiles were good, but Shintobul and domestically produced missiles were the best..
Its weight and massive destructive power.
At that moment, the president's eyes lit up and he spoke to me with a sullen expression..
“Are you talking about firing it immediately after purchasing it??”
“Yes, the power was good..”
“It would be nice. It can only be good. I asked you so hard, but I didn't know you were going to fire right away..”
A hint of sarcasm is evident..
But I kept my promise.
“As promised to the President, I thought about it three times before launching it..”
“I didn't go there with the intention of launching from the beginning.?”
“If there were no pirates, of course it wouldn't have been launched..”
“Not losing a word, not losing a word.”
“…….”
Hmm, so I was confused as to whether they were going to sell missiles or not..
The president met my gaze and sighed..
“My head hurts just thinking about missiles, so give me some time. In the first place, selling weapons is not something that can be done overnight..”
“All right.”
Even if I say this, I will sell it anyway..
The president laughed as he watched me meekly accept it. I knew you would say something sooner or later. After spending some time together, we knew each other well..
“By the way, do you know that Commissioner Jeong said he would quit??”
“Yes, we still met in the office and talked..”
“A person of such great ability should work for the country, but his intention was firm. Can't you return my heart??”
“Is Commissioner Jeong Joo-ho such a great talent??”
I'm not asking this because I don't know this..
However, since it is not my field, I was curious as to what kind of person the president would judge Jung Joo-ho to be..
That way, I can safely bring it and use it here and there, right?.
“Of course he's a great talent. It's a type that's hard to find these days..”
High praise flowed from the president's mouth..
“What's great about Commissioner Jeong is that no matter what task he is assigned to, he performs it perfectly. He handles difficult tasks quietly and perfectly, is humble, and is not involved in corruption. Discovering and working with people like this is a great achievement in itself. It's an honor for me to work with you.”
At the same time, the president's gaze turned to Cheon Myeong-guk..
“Having not one but two such talented people means that I am successful..”
“…….”
Cheon Myeong-guk bowed his head slightly, neither confirming nor denying..
Well, although the two seemed different, there seemed to be some similarities..
There are even false claims that each person is losing hair and having bloody stool because of me..
No matter what, it would be difficult if you passed on industrial accidents suffered at work to me..
“I think it will be difficult for Commissioner Jeong because he has a firm opinion..”
“Is that so too?.”
The president didn't seem to have high expectations either. I think it's easy to give up compared to the high praise.?
“Basically, such talented people are not the type to be caught by persuasion. I should give up.”
Still, I clicked my tongue as if it was disappointing..
“It would be a good idea to go into politics, but it seems like he has no intention of doing so..”
“So I said let's work together..”
“With you?”
“yes. I think Director Jeong, who knows several people, would be a better fit than Team Leader Jin, who goes back and forth..”
“It's an unexpected combination, but it's not bad. If it were Commissioner Jeong, things would be resolved more smoothly..”
“I think things will go more smoothly if I work with Commissioner Jeong..”
Both the President and Cheon Myung-guk expressed positive opinions. All that's left is to persuade Jung Joo-ho and make him work..
How can I persuade you?.
The best way would be to help people overcome hair loss, but it turns out that this is impossible even with the power of the Divine Beast..
“And as Director Cheon said, Manager Chun said so..”
“yes.”
“First of all, I should make it clear that I have no intention of being suspicious. But when I see people around me suffering from herpes, I can't help but worry..”
“I already asked my father.”
“I wonder if you were surprised by what I said..”
It didn't really seem like that. I thought the president also said it out of courtesy..
“I was told that I was just trying to be friendly with my son to help him, and that I had no other intentions..”
“Why is it that his immediate senior is a member of the opposition party? We should also look for a congressman from Cheongju..”
“Will we become friends because we are from the same area??”
“If you have the same hometown and go to the same school, you will feel the same..”
“…okay.”
That's why I told you that the villain who died by my hands before was from Cheongju and was a senior at my school.?
So I said what should I do and immediately smashed his head..
Now I know why you said that.
Oh, it doesn't matter because I'm alive now..
The President said that I just didn't know, but the group of people my father meets is already very famous in the political world. However, it is not like meeting anyone, and nothing special is said, and all we do is play golf in private and build friendships, so there is no great warning, but there are voices of concern..
And the political elders say they really don't like my anxious attitude..
“There are many cases where senior politicians do not know the value of Choi Jun-ho as a superman..”
The President said with a frustrated expression, but honestly, I don’t know..
Even if they acknowledge me, it means nothing..
“I don't really want you to know.”
“I'm afraid those people will make mistakes. If you make a mistake, you'll get in trouble..”
“I don't think people who got to that position would act so rashly..”
Still, aren’t they the so-called social leaders?.
The President laughed bitterly..
“…I probably will. The sense of privilege is something that cannot be easily erased..”
“Then there is nothing I can do..”
At that time, I will have to use my hand decisively..
“That's what I'm worried about..”
“After all, aren't humans animals that listen to others??”
“That's it again. I have no choice but to pray that something like that doesn't happen..”
…But I don’t think they are making any assumptions that I will endure it..
Anyone who sees it will think I'm a walking time bomb..
* * *
“Now I'm in a cold sweat at this time too.”
After Choi Jun-ho passed away, the President openly expressed his relief. In the first place, the missile was just a decoy. Where have you seen Choi Jun-ho for a day or two? The moment he sold it, he thought it would be launched soon.
Fortunately, I thought it was fortunate that it was a pirate base and not an unexpected target. The additional sale of missiles was a stepping stone to turn the situation to our advantage..
The president must look far ahead. That is to ensure that the ruling party continues in power in the next presidential election, which is less than two years away..
“Mr. President.”
“why but?”
Cheon Myeong-guk's expression toward the president was serious..
“As I see Commissioner Jeong Joo-ho quitting, I feel that the time for me to step down is approaching..”
It was the position that came from the president's point of view. However, following Jung Joo-ho, talented people announced their intention to resign one after another, making him feel like his head was pounding..
“I'm not planning on quitting right away.?”
“I would like to quit as soon as there is a suitable successor..”
“There's no way such a person exists, right?.”
“yes. So, I'm raising Secretary Yang Joo-hyuk, but I don't know how long it will take..”
You're giving people a headache..
But in a way, this was a situation that would come at any time. I already knew that the stress Cheon Myeong-guk was under due to Choi Jun-ho was beyond imagination..
If you say no firmly, Cheon Myeong-guk will accept it, but it won't be long before it explodes..
Talented people should be treated more carefully. The president accepted it with a regretful but helpless expression..
“I understand.”
“yes?”
“Did you think I would reject you??”
“Oh no.”
That's what he said, but it was clear that it was like that..
In fact, even now, I still feel like I want to hold on to it..
So I set a deadline.
“Instead, give it a year.”
1In a year, the presidential election will begin, and the Blue House will be able to quietly make personnel appointments. And even as a government of heaven, it would be more certain to set a deadline of one year rather than giving an uncertain deadline..
Perhaps because the words were unexpected, Cheon Myeong-guk's eyes widened and then returned to normal..
“1Bitch, I get it. In the meantime, we will develop both officers as much as possible..”
“yes. And by then you too will have made up your mind..”
“yes?”
“Did you say you have no interest in politics??”
“I don't think it's for me.”
“Fate is a very strange thing. There is such a thing as the call of the times. There is no need to doubt his practical ability, and if he is said to be the right person to handle Choi Jun-ho, it may be a breeze..”
“What are you saying?…….”
“Nope. Then I'll have to hang out with you often until I quit..”
“That's not difficult, but why…….”
“Isn’t it uncertain whether your successor will be as capable as you? So, I'm going to go with you and see if there's anything else I can hand over..”
Of course, there was another intention. Normally, Cheon Myeong-guk would have doubted that, but the joy of being able to be free in a year made it impossible for him to recognize it..
“Well, now that I think about it, it might be okay. I don't know why I was worried about the lack of content for so long..”
“yes? which one?”
“It's no big deal.”
“I will do my best to assist you during the remaining period..”
“I'm asking you to take care of me.”
The president's piercing eyes were focused on him..

After finishing the meeting with the President, I headed to the Shinsung Guild to meet Lee Se-hee, who contacted me as soon as I left the Blue House. Se-hee Lee was sitting in the office wearing a black two-piece with a booty and full makeup..
“Junho! welcome.”
Her beauty wasn't as bright as before and was glowing on its own..
“Has your skin gotten better? You get more care?”
“no? After receiving treatment a few times, I quit. I guess it's because things are going well these days..”
Lee Se-hee could not hide her laughter, saying that the profits from China were truly enormous..
After the first sale, Lee Se-hee was selling whatever items she could find in China, but since there was a shortage of items, she was selling them for more money..
“It is not known, but it is said that several collisions occurred. And it is said that Yuhao's side has won consecutive games..”
Although the number is small, the quality of the awakened ones and the performance of their weapons are said to be overwhelmingly good..
In China, Wei Hao protested, asking why they own the Big Bang series, but Lee Se-hee protested, asking why they did not inform them of the internal situation, which led to the export volume being plundered, and hinted at requesting a penalty..
Then China was surprised and apologized, but instead begged..
That's it?
…Amazing shamelessness and resourcefulness..
Maybe it was my best decision to bring Lee Se-hee into my team..
“Junho doesn't want anyone to win unilaterally.?”
“That too can be adjusted?”
“You can't control the entire board, but you can control the quantity and make it a long-term game..”
The reason why China cannot treat them carelessly is because there is no place as close as Korea that supplies good products. At least there is Japan, but their entire force has suffered great damage due to the league, so they are hunkering down inside..
“I might get criticized, but it'll be okay.?”
“There is no distinction between good and bad money in an account. Let’s hold on to Junho so he doesn’t go somewhere and get beaten up..”
It was a very great mind. Lee Se-hee conveyed a spirit that made him feel like he would completely rob King Yeomra even if he went to hell..
“Honestly, I don't really care. But I think it would be nice if they made a fuss and started fighting among themselves..”
“I will encourage you to simmer and stir-fry for a long time..”
“It's reliable.”
“It was originally trustworthy..”
Lee Se-hee, who was smiling triumphantly, started talking about Singapore Zhou Quan, saying that a request had been received from the government..
“In Singapore, orders for the Big Bang series alone amount to 5 trillion won..”
Lee Se-hee said that this order volume is also huge. However, the timing is ambiguous as all exports are currently focused on China..
No one said anything, but they seemed certain that Zhou Quan was coming to test level 9..
“However, considering Junho's personality, I thought that this deal might not go through properly..”
“I also don't think that there is a difference between good and bad money.?”
“I think Junho will do that.?”
I'm sure I won't do that at all. I thought there were a lot of people who knew me well these days..
“It must be difficult to handle orders from China and Singapore at the same time.?”
“yes.”
Lee Se-hee said that China and Singapore have a close relationship, and that China's help in establishing Zhou Quan's dictatorship was significant..
At this point, it will be harder to find a place where China is not involved..
“If you receive an order from Singapore, there is a high possibility that a protest will come from China..”
Lee Se-hee seemed to be more attracted to orders from China than orders from Singapore, which would only end in a one-off..
Haven't you already raked in a huge amount of money? But there's more to scrape off?
“Stealing money also requires know-how..”
I guess they just take it. For some reason, I don’t think I should ask..
Now that it was like this, I had no choice but to reveal the inside story..
“Then it would be better not to take orders from Singapore..”
“Those words are…….”
I said while looking at Lee Se-hee. And he told me about his plan to eliminate Zhou Quan..
“Because the orderer will not be able to return safely..”
a week after that.
The plane carrying Zhou Quan and his daughter departed from Singapore and arrived in Incheon..
