[146] Counterattack
“If you give me another chance… I will protect the landscape of Nuri with the determination to die.”
Seo Il-kwon, who left without looking back, suddenly came back to the office and knelt down.
He went out as if he would never see him again, and Lee Min-gu wrinkled his face when he returned in less than 20 minutes.
“Why did you suddenly change your mind?”
It was surprising.
Due to the nature of Seo Il-kwon, once a decision was made, he did not withdraw it.
In particular, it was certain to make and break relationships between people.
“If I ran away like this, I thought I would live in regret for the rest of my life. I ran away to cover my mistake even during the Seoil landscaping.”
“Can you run away now?”
The appearance of Lee Min-goo, whom I first met at the scene, was still vivid in my memory.
He was a guy who ran errands on the field with empty eyes without any hope of living.
Seo Il-kwon, who was born into a poor family and lived his whole life as an illegitimate child, was a being that was trampled on by his eyes.
I watched everything from a probationary to a full-time employee as a young guy in his early 20s endured hard work in the field.
And when he became the team leader who overcame his strong bones on this floor and led a team, he was convinced.
“I know that if I run away now, my whole life will be gone. I thought Seo-il was my everything, but it wasn’t.”
“… … .”
“The reason I was able to come this far was because of you.”
“Ha, the dismissal process must have already ended… … .”
profit-
A man who entered the office with the door open came into Lee Min-goo’s field of vision.
Si-woo Lee, who directly decided to dismiss Seo Il-kwon, appeared here.
“Daddy, sir… … .”
“Let’s assume that there was no dismissal of Director Seo Il-kwon.”
Seo Il-kwon finally took his hand.
If he had actually done this for himself, Siwoo Lee would not have given him another chance.
However, he decided that his heart for Lee Min-goo was sincere.
“Director Seo, this is your last chance. Not twice.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
“The two of you fight later, and first, we clean up the sunrise landscape.”
If the opponent caused a problem internally, I thought that Siwoo Lee would do the same.
What if the landscaping business makes a lot of money to buy depreciated trees at high prices?
There was no need to follow.
I was thinking of making you throw money into the air.
“Director Seo, carefully review the projects that will be carried out in the future. I will support you from behind so that the process goes without any problems.”
“All right.”
“Dial the phone to the affiliates of the Jehu Group. The schedule will go ahead without a hitch.”
“I will meet you in person and apologize.”
It was Seo Il-kwon himself.
He had to deal with his own mistakes.
Lee Si-woo nodded at Seo Il-kwon’s words and looked at Lee Min-goo with a blank expression.
“When I first went to see the CEO, I must have promised something. I am fulfilling my promise to make Nuri landscape the best.”
“CEO… … .”
“Take a list of landscaping companies. And we start with acquisitions focusing on companies with strong internal stability.”
Siwoo Lee decided that he couldn’t watch Nuri being swayed by others.
The time has come to start the extension of the Nuri landscape that has been delayed.
Within one day, the strategic secretary’s office checked all financial and accounting indicators of Nuri Gyeonggi.
There was no need to be wary any more after reporting to Si-woo Lee that there was no problem.
“I will prepare.”
“The Nuri landscape will become more solid in the future.”
* * *
Injehu, the leader of the prince group, clenched his fist and shot it down to the table.
“dare! What kind of bastards have intercepted the wood that will be supplied to our princes?”
“It is a place called Sunrise Landscape, and it is a start-up company established by Jo Il-chul, the representative of Gyeonggi Landscape, with funding from the Sejin Tax Office.”
“Jo Il-chul?”
“Yes, Chairman.”
Touching the landscape of Nuri was the same as touching a group of princes.
At the name of Jo Il-chul, Inje-hoo showed a cold expression and sharpened his teeth.
While he was angry, Inha-je, who had met Lee Si-woo, came into the head office.
“I’ve been there, Chairman.”
“Did you come here to meet CEO Lee Si-woo?”
“yes. We met in person to make sure that there is no problem with work.”
“What did CEO Siwoo Lee say?”
“I have been assured that the schedule will proceed without any setbacks. There is no need to get excited about this.”
Inje-hoo looked at In-je’s still eyes.
Contrary to his fluttering eyes, his eyes were calm.
The appearance of Inhaje, which has changed a lot from the past, was very satisfying.
“Whew… … .”
Injehu, who calmed his excitement at those words, sat down and closed his eyes.
“Aren’t you familiar with CEO Lee Si-woo’s abilities? I am sure that if we trust and wait again this time, good results will come.”
At Inje-je’s confident words, In-je-hoo smiled.
His son has become a completely different person since he met Siwoo Lee.
The biggest change in personality, which was indecisive and unable to choose something, was the biggest.
How the heck did Siwoo Lee change the Inha system?
“Do you believe in CEO Lee Si-woo?”
“Yes, I believe.”
“That’s a good look. But you will be the backbone of this lord group in the future. You have to be suspicious of anything and be wary of it.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
Inja-je lowered her head slightly, and In-je-hoo nodded and looked at the person sitting in front of her.
“Did you say that it was the Sejin Tax Office that financed a place called Sunrise Landscape?”
“Yes, Chairman.”
“Proceed with the investigation into the Sejin Tax Office. There’s probably a lot of stuff going on. Was it a group with a strong main financial line?”
“I know that you are in charge of tax for the Jinhan Group and the KG Group.”
At the words of his secretary Jin-Won, he turned his head to look at In-Jae.
“Haze, would you like to organize the tax office?”
In the end, it was the end of the day when we had to catch the money line that spilled the funds for the sunrise landscaping.
“Let’s do it.”
“At this point, it may be necessary to imprint Jinjin and KG with what kind of place the princes group is.”
It’s a sunrise landscape, Lee Si-woo wouldn’t leave it alone, but even the Sejin tax office seemed difficult to organize.
In order to organize the tax office, which is heavily supported by Jinjin and KG, the prince had to give it to him.
In-jae clenched his fists as he looked at him with a mysterious gaze.
He thought that now Injehu was putting him to the test.
‘You have to treat Sejin well. Most of the businesses of Jehu Group are linked to Nuri. If Nuri’s growth is weakened by Sejin, it will be a huge loss to the Jehu group.’
Just as Jinjin is supporting the Sejin tax office, the prince group’s huge funds were being put into Nuri.

“never! I cannot accept that offer!”
Park Young-jin, one of the wooden statues moving from Gangwon-do, jumped up from his seat and shouted.
He strongly rejected the proposal to hand over the trees to be supplied to the Nuri to the Sunrise Landscaping.
“CEO Park, is this a good opportunity? They say that they double the price they pass on to Nuri Landscaping.”
Park Young-jin jumped at the suggestion of Su Mok-sang, who works with him in this area.
If you see the immediate benefit, it is right to hand it over to the sunrise landscape, but if you look into the future, it would be good to continue trading with Nuri.
“no way… Did you hand over the tree to that sunrise landscape?”
“I’ll give it to you at a good price, but it’s hard to resist the offer.”
“How did you deal with the contract with Nuri?”
“I decided to pay everything from sunrise landscaping to the penalty. So, President Park hastily handed over the trees to the sunrise landscape.”
The biggest reason Nuri was able to succeed as an arborist.
It was the fact that the industry that we were focusing on was the recycling sector.
Environmental pollution was an inseparable relationship from the perspective of companies that had to deal with waste.
“Sir, please listen to me.”
“yes?”
“There is a group of princes behind Nuri. It is said that most of the trees contracted this time will be supplied to the princes.”
Park Young-jin knew what other wooden merchants did not know.
He was also a person who worked for a landscaping company and converted to a tree dealer who directly sells trees.
He was a close friend of Lee Min-goo, an employee who worked at Seoil Landscaping in the past.
“What?”
“Stopping the supply of wood right now is tantamount to touching the lord. I don’t know how much money Sunrise Landscaping has, but do you think a single landscaping company can beat the prince?”
The boss was the first to hear it.
Although I knew that the place called Nuri Landscape was derived from Nuri Recycling, there was no way to know the in-depth information.
“Really?”
“Why would I lie? I have a close relationship with Lee Min-koo, the CEO of Nuri Jojo. Because once I learned landscaping under him.”
“ha… Fortunately, the contract was not signed. I haven’t accepted it yet.”
The purpose was to persuade Park Young-jin to write a contract together.
I didn’t know that not signing a contract would be a godsend.
“President Park, thank you very much. If I had, it would have been a disaster.”
“I’m glad I didn’t sign the contract. In any case, please do not stop doing business with Nuri as much as possible.”
“Okay!”
Park Young-jin shook her head at the sight of the president who got up urgently and went out.
Then he got up, left the office, and took out his cell phone from a corner.
[Uh, Youngjin-ah.]
“Don’t worry about Gangwon-do. I’m creating public opinion. CEO.”
[Have some trouble. And I’ll give you one piece of information that might be helpful.]
“Yes, tell me.”
[We will buy all the trees owned by companies that have canceled contracts with us.]
“yes?”
[The concept of a tree shop is a way of connecting sellers and buyers in the middle. You know it’s a concept similar to real estate brokerage, right?]
“then… Are you going to make a contract with the owners of the trees yourself?”
[I will make a contract with the owners and buy the land.]
“… A lot of money will come out.”
[I guess. CEO Siwoo Lee made a decision today, and we will start our activities tomorrow. So you know.]
“Thanks for the information, sir.”
[I am more grateful.]
Tree vendors with good relations with Lee Min-gu, spread across the country, were spreading rumors like this.
Canceling the contract with Nuri is the same as canceling the contract with the Jehu group.
Siwoo Lee did not move hastily even when the situation quickly turned around.
Rather, he was moving more cautiously.
‘It’s like a foolish person. I’d rather just live quietly. Why do you make a big deal out of touching CEO Lee Si-woo?’
Jo Il-chul’s actions went beyond recklessness to the extent that the tongue was stifled.
No matter how well-funded the Sejin Tax Office was, it could not be compared with the Jehu Group.
No, looking at the funds Nuri was running, it was incomparable to Sejin.
The number of wooden merchants who have already broken contracts with Nuri has exceeded double digits.
In just one day, a series of contract cancellations occurred.
Meanwhile, Lee Min-goo, who finished the phone call with Park Young-jin, loosened his tie and drooped on the chair.
“Mingoo, the list of civil engineering companies with which the companies that have canceled their contracts have been sorted out.”
Kim Seol-hwa approached Lee Min-goo, who was tired of sitting in an empty office, and handed him the files he had organized.
“Are you done already?”
“Before that, I was preparing in advance under the direction of the CEO.”
“ah… okay.”
How far in the world are you looking and preparing?
A truly monstrous representative, Lee Min-goo thought.
As the representative of Nuri Jojo, I was also ashamed that I had not been able to prepare for the variable.
Kim Seol-hwa brought a chair and sat next to Lee Min-goo, who took the file and made a blank expression.
“Don’t compare yourself with CEO Lee Si-woo.”
“Still, I can’t help but compare.”
“Look at Nouri’s seniors. They are people with great experience and various abilities, but they don’t think of going beyond the CEO.”
It was a strange thing.
All of Nuri’s dignitaries are more experienced veterans than Lee Min-koo.
But even they unconditionally obey Siwoo’s instructions.
“I made a huge mistake this time.”
“I can catch it. I don’t know who Min-goo looked like when he was in Seo-il, but now the CEO is there.”
Kim Seol-hwa stroked Lee Min-goo’s shoulder with a soft hand.
It has been over a year since we lived together in the same space.
In the house that Si-woo Lee saved, Sul-hwa Kim and Lee Min-goo formed a family.
“Seeing Seolhwa’s face gives me strength.”
