Park Young-hoon nodded his head.
“Well, won hate surprise visits the most. My friend’s wife didn’t even open the door for her mother-in-law who ca without calling.”
“Anyway, please help out.”
“Okay. It’s not a big deal, it’s sothing you need. I’ll send Do-ha with you, okay? I’ll contact the company in advance.”
“Is it easy to reach them?”
“It’s just a light eting, I can arrange it anyti. It’s also a bit far, so I’ll tell you to go ho right after the eting.”
“That’s good. Thanks.”
Yoo-hyun expressed his gratitude for the neat arrangent, and Park Young-hoon chuckled.
“You’re thankful for everything. Just focus on your eting with Mirinae Securities now.”
“I’m on it.”
“What are you going to do?”
“First, I’ll go to the Mirinae Securities office and…”
Yoo-hyun told Park Young-hoon what he had in mind.
Mirinae Securities, which had an office in Yeoksam, was a small-scale brokerage firm.
They had been on the verge of bankruptcy due to a program order mistake, and they failed to adapt to the mobile market, resulting in the lowest sales and assets among the brokerage firms.
But Park Young-hoon had a reason to join hands with Mirinae Securities.
It was because of the rights they had as a brokerage firm.
Only brokerage firms could trade securities through the Korea Exchange.
No matter how well they made a mobile securities platform, it was impossible to trade without going through a brokerage firm.
-Yoo-hyun, you could have used the money you invested to create a new brokerage firm, but it would take too much ti. The conditions are also strict. I thought it would be better to collaborate.
Yoo-hyun agreed with Park Young-hoon’s idea, and the contract he made was not bad either.
However, he wanted to solve the problem of being too swayed by the situation.
So he requested a eting, and it was today.
A few monts later, inside the president’s office of Mirinae Securities.
Park Young-hoon sat next to Yoo-hyun, and the opposite side was empty.
Yoo-hyun thought of sothing else while waiting.
‘I wonder if my mother is on her way?’
She said she would arrive in the afternoon, so she must have entered Seoul by now.
It would take about two hours for my mother to et Na Do-ha’s grandmother.
She said she would stop by the gym and greet her regulars, so she had at least three hours to spare.
The eting ti was delayed, but he could finish it within that ti.
Yoo-hyun was going over his plan when the door opened.
Bang.
President Lee Eung-soo, who had a small stature and droopy eyes, ca over and apologized.
“Oh, I’m sorry for making you wait. The eting was a bit late.”
“President, if you’re busy, why don’t you postpone the ti, why make us wait? It’s been 20 minutes already.”
“Director Park, I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
President Lee Eung-soo, who appeased Park Young-hoon, looked at Yoo-hyun.
“Oh, this is too much. I didn’t even offer you a cup of tea.”
“It’s okay. Let’s just proceed.”
“Haha. Shall we?”
He made them wait from the start, and the hospitality was poor.
He didn’t seem to ignore Yoo-hyun, but rather he looked like he had no ti to spare.
He didn’t even bring any subordinate staff to the important eting where decisions were made.
‘There weren’t many employees either.’
Yoo-hyun recalled the scene of the Mirinae Securities office he saw earlier and guessed the internal situation.
They seed to have more financial pressure than they appeared.
Was that why?
President Lee Eung-soo was ticulous about even the smallest details, as if he couldn’t afford to fail.
“The first thing I want Milky to do for us is to guarantee the order errors…”
“President, we already settled that in the last verification by the staff, so let’s move on to the next…”
Even when Park Young-hoon countered with evidence, he repeated what he had said.
They had to move on, but he kept asking for unnecessary features.
Yoo-hyun had a clear idea of why Milky’s schedule was delayed.
It was all because of President Lee Eung-soo.
‘He’s too timid.’
He understood to so extent, since he had been through the experience of being pushed to the brink of bankruptcy.
But he couldn’t postpone it forever.
Yoo-hyun decided to force him to choose after listening to his story as much as possible.
Beep.
Then, his phone rang and Na Do-ha’s na appeared on the screen.
-Alice said she postponed the eting because she knew your mother was coming. She must have talked to Grandma while I was away. What should we do?
“What?”
Yoo-hyun’s eyes widened as soon as he checked the content.
For a mont, President Lee Eung-soo, who was having a half-hearted conversation, blinked his eyes.
“Did I say sothing wrong?”
“No. You were talking about the sales, right?”
Yoo-hyun spat out the words and quickly sorted out the situation.
Judging by the nuance, it was a foregone conclusion that his mother and Jeong Da-hye would et.
He had to end the eting quickly if he wanted to intervene.
“Right. We agreed to give so of the sales generated by Milky to Double Y. But I don’t think we should do it at a simple 5 percent, we should have a different rate depending on the period.”
“President, you clearly nailed it when we made the contract.”
“Director Park, this is necessary for risk reduction. You also have a stake in Mirinae Securities, don’t you? We’re already on the sa boat.”
Whether it was 5 percent, or 7 percent in the first half and 3 percent in the second half, it didn’t make much difference.
This was not the ti to have such trivial conversations.
At this rate, the conversation wouldn’t progress even after an hour.
Yoo-hyun asked right away.
“President, you seem to be worried about the risk all the ti, why don’t you just leave it to us?”
“Leave it to you? What if you fail? We’re done for.”
“We’ll make sure that doesn’t happen.”
“How? Are you going to guarantee it?”
“No. Double Y will acquire Mirinae Securities.”
That was the mont Yoo-hyun answered.
“What did you say?”
“Wow!”
As if they had made a promise, President Lee Eung-soo and Park Young-hoon’s eyes were as wide as lanterns.
Yoo-hyun decided to invest an additional 10 billion won under the na of Double Y and acquire the shares of Mirinae Securities.
He also agreed to keep the na and employ all the staff of Mirinae Securities.
Of course, the aftermath of President Lee Eung-soo was also included.
There was no reason for President Lee Eung-soo to refuse the generous offer.
Everything was settled quickly in 10 minutes.
Clang.
As they stepped outside, Park Young-hoon looked at Yoo-hyun with disbelief.
“Yoo-hyun, what’s gotten into you all of a sudden?”
“What do you an?”
“You said you would listen to everything and make the situation favorable for us before we went in.”
“Well, it seed like we would have to follow their lead no matter what we did.”
“So you decided to buy the company like a snack?”
Yoo-hyun calmly answered the dumbfounded Park Young-hoon.
“It was a well-thought-out decision.”
“When?”
“I’ve been thinking about it.”
“Since when?”
Although it was sowhat impulsive, Yoo-hyun had his own reasons.
First of all, he had to take the initiative for Milky’s success.
He also couldn’t rely on Paul Graham forever.
-I hope you walk the path of an investor. Whether you’re with or not.
As he wished, Yoo-hyun needed a way to manage his funds if he wanted to walk his own path.
It was rational to own a brokerage firm if he wanted to handle hundreds of billions of won in capital.
But whatever reason he gave, it would sound like an excuse for now, so Yoo-hyun dodged the question.
“I’ve always wanted to. Just get it.”
“You should have told sooner. I wouldn’t have had to work so hard.”
“You made it easy for to acquire it. Good job. Well, I’m going ahead.”
Tap tap.
Yoo-hyun patted Park Young-hoon’s shoulder and ran off.
“Hey! Co with !”
He didn’t look back even when Park Young-hoon called him.
Park Young-hoon, who was puzzled, took out his phone.
There was a ssage from Jeong Da-hye.
-Director, I have an important matter to attend to, so I’ll postpone the eting schedule.
It seed like he was going to et Yoo-hyun’s mother.
Park Young-hoon smirked as he read the content.
“What, did you buy a company to save Da-hye from trouble?”
Yoo-hyun was already gone far away.
Thud thud thud.
The gym building appeared in front of Yoo-hyun, who was running.
He maintained his speed and glanced at his wristwatch.
3:30 p.m.
It was the ti when his mother was having a conversation at the kimbap restaurant.
She would surely want to finish quickly to see Jeong Da-hye.
He had to intervene before the two had a deep conversation.
Yoo-hyun sorted out his thoughts and stopped in front of the kimbap restaurant.
Swoosh.
He looked inside through the transparent glass window, but he couldn’t see his mother.
The restaurant consultant who was supposed to co today, and Na Do-ha’s grandmother, were also not there.
Were they eting in the lounge inside the restaurant?
Yoo-hyun tilted his head and was about to open the door.
Behind him, he heard Na Do-ha’s grandmother’s voice.
“Director Han, you’re here?”
The grandmother, who had always been harsh to Yoo-hyun, now spoke comfortably.
Yoo-hyun quickly turned his head and asked.
“Yes, grandmother. Did my mother not co?”
“She did. Why?”
“I thought she would be here, but I don’t see her.”
“They already finished talking. The president had a great sense of humor. The person who helped us also praised the new side dish idea.”
They already finished?
His mother had arrived less than 50 minutes ago.
No matter how fast the conversation went, his mother would have checked the contract carefully, knowing her personality.
“Did she stamp the contract extension as well?”
“That wasn’t urgent, so we decided to do it next ti. The president had sothing important to do.”
“What important thing?”
“eting Da-hye. They looked very good together. You must be happy, Director Han.”
“…”
While the grandmother smiled brightly, Yoo-hyun’s expression hardened.
The grandmother was puzzled.
“Is there a problem? Co to think of it, Do-ha also looked troubled.”
“No, no. Do you know where they went?”
“I don’t know. They walked out together. You should call them.”
“Okay. I will.”
He didn’t call his mother, thinking she was in a eting.
Yoo-hyun turned around and picked up his phone.
As he was about to dial the number, the vibration rang.
Beep.
-Da-hye: Yoo-hyun, I’m taking good care of your mother, so don’t worry. I’m leaving a ssage just in case.
A sigh escaped from Yoo-hyun’s mouth as he read the ssage.
“Do you look like I’m not worried? Sigh.”
He called his mother, but he couldn’t have any aningful conversation.
All he got was an answer that she would finish her work and co to the officetel.
She didn’t say anything about Jeong Da-hye, nor did she set a ti.
It was the sa when Han Jae-hee asked.
Ti passed and it was getting dark.
Han Jae-hee, who was sitting on a bench across the street from the officetel, grumbled.
“You said you’d have dinner with , why aren’t you coming?”
“Are you talking about food now?”
“Then what do you want to do? It’s already been an hour.”
“That’s why I told Da-hye yesterday that I would talk to her… Ugh. Forget it.”
Yoo-hyun barely suppressed the anger that was coming out, and Han Jae-hee pouted.
“Don’t bla . I did my best.”
“Fine. What do we do now?”
“What can we do? Judging by the lack of reply from your sister, there must be sothing going on between them.”
“I wish there wasn’t.”
Hearing Han Jae-hee’s firm words, Yoo-hyun beca more worried.
