[Episode 111] If You Can’t Find It, You Have to Find It
Boseong Architecture’s headquarters arrived with Lee Moo-yeol.
Upon entering the lobby, the information desk staff who recognized Lee Si-woo bowed his head.
“I have made an appointment with the president.”
The staff politely responded to his words.
“The president is waiting. You can go up, sir.”
“I’m rooting for you.”
Siwoo Lee, standing in front of the elevator with a dignified gait, pressed the button.
Eventually, when they arrived at the president’s room where Park Soo-beom was, Kang Yi-seo smiled and bowed her head.
“Are you here, sir?”
“Is the president inside?”
“yes. Waiting for the representative inside.”
It was Siwoo Lee who always visited Boseong alone, but today a young man was next to him.
“This is my secretary, Secretary Lee Mu-yeol.”
“Now you have a personal assistant with you. Indeed, Nuri’s status has changed a lot.”
Nuri’s position has changed gradually as she has undergone various events recently.
Although the general public does not know it well, rumors have spread little by little among those who know it.
Rumors mixed with facts and lies were circulating, such as the representative of Nuri intervening in the case of Kang Eung-ryong and Kang Jun, and that the representative of Nuri had the power to move the prince and Kang Dong.
Also, ‘the president of Gangdong Steelworks and the CEO of Nuri are like that’ also played a big role in the change of location.
However, Siwoo Lee himself did not realize it.
Si-woo Lee grabbed the doorknob with a faint smile at Kang Yi-seo’s words.
Upon entering, Park Soo-beom got up from his seat and bowed his head.
“Are you here, sir?”
“I came here because I had something to discuss. The person here is the secretary who attends me.”
As Si-woo Lee sat down, Mu-yeol Lee stood behind him and took out his notebook.
“Since you came with your secretary, it is not a personal matter.”
“We are planning to build two buildings in Nuri. And I want to entrust the construction to Boseong.”
“What kind of architecture do you want?”
“One will be about 3,000 pyeong, and the other building is about 1,000 pyeong.”
“Hmm, it looks like it’s going to be a big project.”
It had to be a big project.
The two buildings were combined to build a building with a total area of about 4,000 pyeong.
It was clear that it would be an architecture that required skill and know-how.
“It is difficult for businesses that operate waste to correct the smell. So, on the newly purchased land, we want to build a building that can store waste.”
“One place will be a workshop for crushing waste, and the other will be a place to store shredded materials. Am I right?”
“you’re right. However, there must be a prerequisite that there must be a passageway between the two buildings.”
“There should be plenty of passageways for the equipment to move around, and rails will need to be built so that the waste can move to the building next door.”
Park Soo-beom, who has been in charge of architecture for a long time, listened to Si-woo Lee’s plans and grasped important points.
Lee Moo-yeol, who records every single conversation between the two, raised his head.
“We budgeted around 3 billion dollars to build the two buildings.”
“It sounds like you have to build two large buildings at the 3 billion mark.”
“It doesn’t matter if it costs more, but I just want it to be built sturdy.”
This was not a scale that Park Soo-beom alone could make an estimate for.
It was faster for experts to measure and negotiate forecasts after seeing the terrain in person.
“I will visit Nuri tomorrow with experts. Look at the topography and negotiate.”
“I would rather do that.”
After a brief discussion, Park Soo-beom looked at Lee Mu-yeol standing behind him.
Lee Si-woo, noticing that Park Soo-beom was trying to tell a personal story, turned his head.
“Wait outside for a while, Mr. Lee.”
“Yes, sir.”
Still, there was something that Moon Jae-shin had asked for.
That means never worrying about Siwoo Lee’s personal life.
And when there was a request from Si-Woo Lee, it was a request that he should unconditionally avoid his seat.
When Lee Moo-yeol went outside, Park Soo-beom opened his mouth.
“Thanks to the CEO’s quick judgment, we were able to bring down Kang Eung-ryong faster than expected.”
“I haven’t done anything. We only provided sources and information to those affected by Indus.”
Park Soo-beom shook his head.
Without Siwoo Lee’s help, it was clear that he would have spent a long time trying to figure out the illegal behavior of Indus.
“Currently, Kang Eung-ryong’s whereabouts are unknown.”
“It would be. He lost everything he had done in his life, his company and his political position.”
“But shouldn’t you be punished for your sins?”
So did Jang Seong-woo.
When all the corruption facts were revealed, the first thing he did was run away.
Unable to accept reality, they run away blindly, waiting for the situation to improve.
But this is a bad choice.
The more you run away, the more severe the punishment.
“Are there any expectations?”
“I’m looking for you, but where did you hide… … .”
“Ugh, you’re making me suffer until the very end.”
“I don’t know what to do with it thinking it’s the last. It’s the safety of the lady. The bodyguards are closely escorting you 24 hours a day, but I’m worried about the former CEO.”
“When people are in a corner, they lose their temper and go wild.”
“The elderly are concerned about the safety of the representative. How about increasing the number of escorts?”
Before his worries became reality, he had to find Kang Eung-ryong.
Where is he really hiding?
Who is helping him?
Si-woo Lee, who had been thinking deeply, smiled faintly.
“If I were to be the bait, wouldn’t at least my sister be safe?”
To touch Shin Ae-ra, the number of escorts protecting her was considerable.
So, how can Kang Eung-ryong bring out Shin Ae-ra?
“It’s too dangerous.”
“Even if it’s dangerous, I have to be a bait to keep my sister safe. If Kang Eung-ryong doesn’t want to reveal himself, shouldn’t I have to go find him?”
“CEO.”
“Please keep it a secret from my sister. And can you give me one GPS?”
“Then if things go wrong, I don’t have the face to look at you.”
“Kang Eung-ryong is now a time bomb. If we don’t find him, one day our sister’s safety will be in jeopardy. If you look at the way he has deceived the people around him so far, he is a great person in a sense.”
It meant that at least one patience was worth acknowledging.
It was clear that he would spend a lot of time trying to get revenge on Shin Ae-ra for destroying him.
It was hard to wait for Shin Ae-ra to feel safe herself.
“What are you going to do?”
“I’m going to try a provocation. I don’t know if that taunt will work, but at least you won’t be able to ignore it. I am one of those people who had a huge impact on his life.”
“We will give you GPS right away. Security personnel will be deployed to locate the representative 24 hours a day.”
“Just do that.”
Siwoo Lee, who got up from his seat, stopped walking while trying to get out.
“I hope that Nuri will pay as much attention to the buildings to be built. Please.”
A waste plant where we live in harmony with nature.
That was the motto that Nuri should aim for in the future.
I was convinced that if there was a tree that could change the air to clean air even after carbon emission, it could be a nature-friendly space.
“Let’s make the best building.”
After leaving the room, Si-woo Lee was able to receive a crude watch from Kang Yi-seo.
Si-woo Lee, wearing the watch on the spot, went back to the car.
Lee Moo-yeol, who started the engine, tried to move with a strong dong.
“no. Instead of going to Gangdong, I will go to the Wonkwang business.”
“Weren’t you going to the Gangdong Works?”
“The plan has changed. I have someone I need to meet.”
“Okay, sir.”
Si-woo Lee, who changed his schedule from Gangdong to Wonkwang unemployment, closed his eyes.
The method of making Kang Eung-ryong come to visit was simple.
Fortunately, Won Kwang was funded by Kang Jun, but he was not involved in the dumping of waste.
Perhaps few of the companies that received Indus support survived.
Who is Kang Eung-ryong being provided with a hiding place?
It was easy when you think about it.
‘CEO Jeong Kwang-soon. In that case, it would be possible to directly connect with Kang Eung-ryong.’
Although it was destroyed, it only lost its political base.
It was highly probable that Kang Eung-ryong had prepared slush funds in various ways while working as a politician.
Although he lost his power, Siwoo Lee thought that the funds would remain intact.
‘After all, what they need is money, not power.’
Leaving Mu-yeol Lee outside, Si-woo Lee went into the ore industry alone.
A loud mechanical sound echoed throughout the yard.
The yard of Wonkwang was full of waste.
The shredded items were packed in sacks and piled up on one side of the yard.
“Hey, aren’t you the representative of Nuri?”
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you, CEO Jeong Kwang-soon.”
“Because we’re not close enough to see each other face to face. But what have you been up to here?”
“I heard a greeting. There is quite a lot of waste.”
“It’s only natural for things to pile up in the dumpster.”
It was not very good to be treated with kindness towards Lee Si-woo as if it was natural.
However, Siwoo Lee was consistent with an expressionless expression without moving at all.
“I heard rumors like this. Wonkwang was founded with the support of Indus, right?”
“I don’t know where I heard that rumor, but I’ve never received Indus funding.”
“There are already rumors on the floor. I heard that the representative spoke directly.”
“Are you here to argue?”
Jeong Gwang-soon, who felt that the horse had bones in it, distorted his expression.
Seeing his reaction, Siwoo Lee smiled.
“I’ll give you a warning. In the yard where Indus went bankrupt, the financial line must have been cut off now, but you have to find a way to make a living.”
“Thank you for worrying about Won-kwang, but don’t meddle. Isn’t it?”
“I was just telling you because I was worried.”
Jeong Gwang-soon thought it was a little worry.
Wonkwang has overcome countless crises in the meantime and has stood here.
“It’s kind of worrying. Wonkwang will survive in the present and in the future. Can you stop now?”
“It is. And I have something to say to Governor Kang Eung-ryong. Let them know that no matter how patiently you wait, there are things you can’t do.”
“What do you mean by telling me that?”
“I just think, if you are the CEO, you can convey these words to Governor Kang Eung-ryong. Then let’s go.”
Siwoo Lee, who got out of Wonkwang and got into the car, closed his eyes.
‘I won’t move until I get a more certain chance, right?’
Then he opened his eyes and looked out the window.
Then Muyeol Lee asked him.
“Shall we go to Gangdong, sir?”
“Sergeant Lee, looking at your resume, you said that you’ve done kendo before?”
In Lee Moo-yeol’s resume, his athletic history was written.
When Si-woo Lee, who remembered that he had practiced kendo until high school, asked him, Mu-yeol Lee showed a bitter expression.
“I lived as a kendo prospect until high school. If I hadn’t been injured, I would still be practicing kendo.”
“You don’t think you will have that much time to exercise while doing this?”
“Nevertheless, I often visit the Kendo Kwan to warm up and practice Dalian on a regular basis. From elementary school to high school, I was crazy about kendo.”
At Lee Mu-yeol’s words, he thought about why Moon Jae-shin had appointed him as his secretary.
“If someone attacks me, what will this secretary do?”
“You are saying it for granted. I will protect the safety of the representative.”
“Even in a dangerous situation?”
“Do you know that?”
“What is it?”
“I think all of our comrades have been greatly favored by the CEO.”
To be honest, Lee Si-woo thought that it was not worthy of being called grace.
He only hired them for the purpose of building the talents needed for Nuri.
“We have chosen the talent we need. Me and you, each other, because we need it, so we help each other.”
Gangdong’s non-regular workers, including Lee Mu-yeol, know how good their representatives are.
They have been working in Gangdong for quite a long time as non-regular workers.
Although they were called co-workers, regular workers secretly ignored non-regular workers.
It was Lee Si-woo and Nuri’s staff who warmly hugged them, who were inferior to their lives in Paris.
“I would be happy if my humble ability is helpful to the representative.”
“Don’t say that. Even if kendo doesn’t have many uses in real life, it will be helpful to this assistant someday.”
