Success Story of a Master Level Mercenary Chaebol

053: See you on a business trip (6)

It was on my way back to my hotel in LA by car. The distance was farther than Seoul and Busan, but thanks to the stretched road, it was possible to drive in 5 hours.

It was about time to enjoy the bleak landscape of the desert spreading out from the car window. I got a call from Ji-eun.

It is currently 2pm here. Considering the 16-hour time difference, it was 6 in the morning in Korea.

“Did you just call to say you’re okay?”

“You called me at 6 in the morning just to ask, did you?”

“Sheesh! I called because my mom asked me to give her a call saying she was wondering how is her brother.”

Fortunately, nothing happened at home. It was not at all normal for her sister to call and say hello from the morning because she was worried about her brother who was on a business trip.

I was surprised for a moment, but when I found out why, I was relieved. After a moment of noise, the voice changed.

“Son, are you okay? Are you eating well?”

“Your mother. Now I am on my way to Las Vegas, eat a lot of delicious food, and go home.”

“If you go to Las Vegas, do you gamble?”

“There are places where you gamble, but there are a lot of people who just go sightseeing. Right now, I’m driving around with people from the company.”

“Yeah, there’s no pain, right?”

“Yes, I eat so well that I am full of energy. ah! And today, I stopped by a casino for fun with my colleagues and won some money. I guess I’m lucky these days. haha!”

“What? He told me not to spend money on useless things…”

“It was just half fun and half experience. I didn’t even get a million dollars. And do you know how much I won?”

“So how much did you win? One hundred thousand won, two hundred thousand won?”

Soyeon seems to be interested too. She asked for her amount in any line she could imagine.

They are a married couple who cherish and live for the rest of their lives. Cheol-woo paused for a moment, contemplating an acceptable amount for them.

“What, why can’t you tell me? Have you ever boasted with something other than a few thousand won?”

“Oh, please. Don’t be surprised and listen. It’s about three million won. The amount I earned was…”

“Egumuni, so many…? So, isn’t that a lot of tax?”

“I said after tax. So, if there’s anything you want mom, tell me. If she buys here, she can live much cheaper.”

“I am done! Just save that money and add it when you get married.”

“If you take this in cash, you will have to pay tax again because of the exchange rate. It’s much more profitable to buy it as a product, so don’t hesitate and tell me what you need.”

I had to explain and persuade fifty thousand reasons even to buy a gift. So, I didn’t even have the courage to talk about the little building in Gangnam yet.

“I’ll buy you an expensive wine!”

“Is this crazy? What kind of alcoholism is it in the morning!”

“Oppa, I have one more sandal from Evokini…”

match!

“Hey, why are you hitting me?”

“You already asked your brother to buy you a bunch. What else are you asking me to buy?”

“Yesterday’s new look on social media was like this…!”

clap clap!

“Oh, it hurts! Stop hitting me.”

“Shut up, hey, go to school, this!”

“Oppa, I’ll send you the shopping list by message later!”

“This is real.”

“Heng! I’m going to school~!”

“My son, I just need a big bottle of it~.”

“Ouch! Can’t you say that to your son because you’re a father?”

“What kind of childish sound are you making? If that’s the case, you too go to school with the author…”

“When was the last time I went to school . . .”

The sound of the grinding of the back was so unbearable. In the old days, it is said that people recognized the peace of a family by tasting soy sauce, but now it is possible to evaluate the peace of a family by the sound of grinding their backs.

“Let’s stop. Phone bills are high.”

“Yes, I will call you back.”

“Yeah, take a bite to eat and eat…”

I ended up talking on the phone so hard. Even though she was roaming, Soyeon had an expensive image of an overseas phone call.

So, I was trembling for fear of getting hit by a phone bill bomb. I raised my two children while caring for it like this.

Now, even if you are told to live a comfortable life without worrying about your livelihood, the habit you have become accustomed to is not easily erased. Just like Cheol-woo still can’t give up his mercenary habits.

For the remainder of his return home, he thought about his plans for the future. He actually didn’t even think about the future after his return.

The main goal was to make the family no longer unhappy. And the rest was just spontaneity and behavior at will.

Maybe it was an eruption of a desire that had been suppressed for so long. It’s like a longing for freedom that I haven’t enjoyed since losing my family…

Fortunately, everything has been fine so far, and everything went smoothly. However, it seemed that more concrete plans had to be made for the future.

In Rolls-Royce, the front and rear seats were divided by translucent glass. So the people in front did not hear his call.

The car drove with a quiet exhaust sound. In it were the worries and silence of Cheol-woo.

When he returned to his dorm in LA, Hwaryeong with a haggard face was sitting in his room. There was an ashtray that was not in someone’s room, and cigarette butts were piled up in it.

“Where the hell have you been?”

“Did you call me? I have business in Las Vegas.”

“Is this the time for us to have fun?”

“Aren’t we supposed to be included in that cage?”

“Damn it. There’s nothing going on. hey fuck!”

“Why can’t I contact Carlos?”

“That bastard keeps chewing on my contacts. Even if I ask around, I can’t reach them. It seems like they are deliberately avoiding us.”

“I’m not there, right?”

When she saw an empty cigarette pack, she crumpled it with all her might and threw it away. She comes into someone else’s room and she behaves so rudely.

I decided to change my room right away. Please never give out keys.

“Stop giving up and find another brewer.”

“Whether it should be possible in the first place or not. My brother-in-law’s money came out all the way to the back hole. If the initial investor’s amount is large, other guys would be too harsh to intervene. It is clear that you will be struggling with money throughout the project if you collect a few small daggers…”

“Then why does that Carlos say he invests a lot of money in such gambles that other people are reluctant to?”

“…I don’t even know that. Anyway, I’m never leaving this place until he vomits money to us. So, make sure you are prepared.”

“If I don’t tie the word “us” into what my sister and sister are talking about . . .

At that moment, her cell phone rang. After confirming her caller, she put her finger to her lips and asked to be quiet.

“Okay, any good news? What! Tonight…? OK got it. I’ll give you a case later. Stop!”

She hurriedly hung up the phone, writing something diligently on the note on the desk. She looked at her Cheol-woo with a completely different expression than before she answered her call.

He smiled with his eyes smeared with black eyeshadow and made a confident expression. She looked just like a panda.

“Look, what did I say? If you stick with it and stick with it, you will eventually succeed. Ho Ho!”

“Have I never heard of such a thing?”

“Then let me know from now on.”

“It seems very good news.”

“Tonight Carlos is having a late-night party in his mansion.”

“Can anyone just go in there?”

“No way. Only those who have received an invitation will be able to enter.”

“Then it has nothing to do with you.”

“This is an invitation, you can get it from now on. Don’t take me too seriously! Since then, he’s been a world-famous celebrity.”

“More than Dain?”

“Damn, don’t even bring that bitch’s name out in front of me. All the good feelings are gone!”

“So I took it out. Calm down the excitement.”

“huh! it’s cracking I’m afraid I don’t know you Stop talking and get ready for the party tonight.”

“According to what you said, it would be a den of criminals who deal in weapons and drugs.

“Weak, who? you? And I said, don’t mess with that gangster. I warned you twice. I don’t know what’s going to happen now.”

“Shit! Do you think I’ll give up because I’m afraid?”

She had no intention of giving up at all.

With a sad face, Cheol-woo approached the bed. And she called the front desk.

I’ll have to change my room first. There was no feeling of rest in a place where the stench of cigarette smoke was scorched.

As if embarrassed, she quietly left his room. On the table was a note with the place and time written on it.

“Manager, we have found the whereabouts of Man-ho Jeong.”

“Oh, that’s pretty good. So, where is he and what is he doing?”

Cheol-woo, who was carrying the equipment, asked. He was now getting ready to head to Jung Man-ho’s garage.

However, Min-seok, who was not expecting much, contacted him saying that he had also found his hiding place. He didn’t kill him and kept him alive, but he was playing a pretty good role.

Once again, he listened and praised himself for his generosity and perseverance.

“I am under the protection of a Latin gang called Carlos.”

stop!

Returning to LA, his hand stopped while checking the VP9 he had obtained from a back alley. It was a versatile and easy-to-handle pistol.

The downside is that it is more expensive than other products. He smuggled 700 dollars and got hit by the nine hundred dollars.

They gave me 800 dollars for a silencer. Fortunately, it was a discount of 100 dollars because we bought it together.

“Is the address ‘Beverly Hills, CA 9XXX0’ correct?”

“Oh, how did you know? I just found out…?”

“Okay, come back here quickly.”

After hanging up the phone, Cheol-woo headed to the living room table. There was an address written by Hwaryeong.

“Oh shit!”

When he saw the address, cursing came out of his mouth. It was the same address that the Warrior had figured out. The first impression I had was right. I’ve seen security services there.

It smelled. A young man named Jeong Man-ho was close enough to entrust himself to a gangster named Carlos.

However, the gangster came to invest money in a business in Korea, and then hurried back. That’s why Hwaryeong, who had a sweet body, flew directly to the United States.

It is difficult to make contact, but a night party is going to be held just in time. Surely she would have asked for an invitation.

She said her brother had blocked all the money holes. It’s like telling them to go in this direction.

Min-seok’s older brother, Min-tae, was also there. In summary, it was clear that Hwaryeong’s older brother, Min-tae, Jeong Man-ho, and Carlos were all connected by some kind of relationship.

And Hwaryeong entered Carlos’s lair on his own feet.

Is this really a coincidence?

I called Hwaryeong in a hurry, but she didn’t answer. She should have reached the front of Carlos’s mansion by now.

Invitations are for 2 people. Since Cheol-woo refused, he must have gone with the staff or alone.

Even if he was accompanied by an employee, he was nothing compared to the ordinary people in the gang’s den. He called quickly.

“Come to my room with Deputy Ahn and Kwak right now. Wear dark clothes that are easy to move and…”

“yes? what ···.”

I hung up the phone as soon as I said my business. Then I quickly dialed another number again.

“Hey, bay! Did you arrive well?”

“Thanks to···. Linda, I’m sorry, but I have a favor to ask you…”

“What is it, please?”

“I need an invitation to a party tonight. It’s a party in Beverly Hills. The host is Carlos.”

“Um, can you wait ten minutes? I think that might be enough.”

“Okay, thank you, Linda. I will repay you for this debt.”

“I will call you after work. Bay!”

“Yes, I will.”

In conversation last night, I learned that she is the daughter of a well-known American company president. She said she was as active in her social life as she is in her family.

Thanks to this, the invitation seemed to be easily obtained. It is best to enter through the main gate of the den, which quietly enters the mansion.

Cheol-woo with his weapon went outside. Tonight, a strong feeling that the smell of blood would vibrate crossed my mind.
