After experiencing a tragic car accident, Liu Zhengjie, whose ancestors were from China and who was now an ordinary Korean worker, woke up to find himself the eldest son of the powerful Korean chae...
Li Zhongwu turned and left without waiting for Park Jin Hyuk to answer.
Park Jin Hyuk told his grandma not to worry and followed his grandpa.
They walked along the corridor until they came to the study.
The study rooms of chairman's offices in large companies seem to be a convention, and the layout is not much different.
As soon as you enter the door, you will see a large and simple-style desk, and against the wall are bookshelves filled with various books.
There was a sofa in the room for receiving guests. Li Zhongwu sat down on the sofa and said to Park Zhenhe:
"What are you standing for? Come and sit down."
"yes."
Park Jin Hyuk walked respectfully to the sofa and sat down.
At this time, a middle-aged maid came in with tea and placed the cups in front of Lee Jong-woo and Park Jin-hyuk.
Li Zhongwu picked up the teacup and took two sips, then said to Park Zhenhe:
"Do you know why I called you here?"
"Yes I know."
"Shanming relayed those words to me. You asked her to tell me, right?"
"I don't know what my aunt told you, but I asked her to pass on a message to you."
"Then I'll be frank. Just give me the land you have."
"I don't know how to respond to your question."
Under his grandfather's sharp gaze, Park Jin Hyuk still had a smile on his face.
Seeing him so calm, Li Zhongwu continued:
"Did your father ask you to do this? I've already clearly rejected him, but he sent you here the other day, saying he'd handed over the management of DS Construction to you. None of that worked, and now you're using that piece of land to negotiate terms with me, right?"
After hearing what he said, Park Jin Hyuk knew that his father had indeed approached his grandfather and asked him to help smooth things over with the Iraqi government.
'Haha... this is quite interesting.'
Park Jin Hyuk picked up the tea and took a sip.
"How could my father have asked me to do this? There's no way DS headquarters would know about this news that even Dongjing Company doesn't know."
Li Zhongwu nodded.
"Yes, we don't even know where the project is located, but you've already got the land. How did you do it?"
"Grandpa, this is the company's business secret. Can I not tell you? Let's get back to the topic we were talking about. Didn't you say you wanted that piece of land?"
Li Zhongwu, who has always been dignified and serious, showed a smile on his face.
"Tell me! What will it take for you to give me that piece of land?"
"Grandpa, you're asking even though you already know the answer."
Li Zhongwu was not angry when he heard his grandson say this.
"Hahaha! I haven't heard anyone speak to me like that in a long time. I didn't expect you to say that. If there were outsiders present, I wouldn't know where to put my face...Okay!"
Li Zhongwu picked up the phone on the coffee table and dialed.
"It's me. Tomorrow I will tell the Iraqi Prime Minister what I told you and ask him to help push it forward. You will follow up on this matter directly."
After saying that, Li Zhongwu hung up the phone and handed the microphone to Park Jin Hyuk.
Park Jin Hyuk took the phone and looked at his grandfather.
Li Zhongwu said:
"You should make a phone call too."
"Call up?"
"Didn't you hear? I've already explained it, and you have to say the same thing."
"I take it we haven't agreed on a deal yet?"
"What did you say?"
The smile on Li Zhongwu's face suddenly disappeared.
Park Jin Hyuk still said with a smile:
"You said you wanted that piece of land, but you haven't negotiated the price yet?"
Seeing his grandfather looking at him angrily, Park Jin Hyuk thought for a moment and said:
"...Since you are my grandfather, I will not ask for a random price. Please pay double the price for that piece of land."
"What?!"
Li Zhongwu's voice suddenly rose an octave.
Facing Lee Jong-woo who was about to get angry, Park Jin-hyuk showed no intention of backing down.
He knew that the initiative of the transaction was in his hands.
Park Jin Hyuk said calmly:
"Just because I'm your grandson doesn't mean you'll take the land for free, right? You and I both know the value of this land, and I believe you wouldn't do that. I only offered this price because you're my grandfather, not because I want to make money from you."
Li Zhongwu stared at Park Zhenhe for a while, then shouted to the outside:
"Is Butler Jiang here?"
Before he finished speaking, Butler Jiang walked in.
"Master, you called me?"
"Don't let anyone into my study until I'm out."
Butler Jiang was stunned for a moment.
"Madam, can't I?"
"No one."
Seeing that Li Zhongwu's tone was not right, Butler Jiang quickly bowed and retreated.
Li Zhongwu looked at Park Jin Hyuk without saying anything, but picked up the cup and drank tea.
Park Jin Hyuk did not avoid Lee Jong Moo's gaze, but waited quietly for him to speak again.
Time passed minute by minute, and when he had drunk more than half of the tea, Li Zhongwu put down the teacup.
"You don't need that piece of land. Are you trying to negotiate with me about something you don't need?"
"Something I don't need? How can you say that? That piece of land is as important to me as it is to you."
"Did you make another offer because you saw I already called? I can call again right away and cancel what we just did."
"Of course you can do that, but... besides you, I also have other options. It's precisely because you are my grandfather that I am talking to you first."
After hearing Park Jin Hyuk's answer, Lee Jong Moo frowned.
"Other options? What other options do you have?"
"Both Guozhi Group and Mingcheng Group have been in contact with us. Like Dongjing Company, Guozhi Group has deep roots in the Middle East. While Mingcheng Group isn't well-known for real estate development, its influence in the Middle East cannot be underestimated. Both companies have been trying to meet with me to discuss the land, but I've avoided them and come to see you first. Considering all this, would you mind giving me a reasonable price?"
"Haha, for a deal between two companies, it's not enough to just be satisfied with the product. We also have to consider the relationship between the two parties. If they knew that you and I didn't reach an agreement, do you think those companies would still be interested in that piece of land?"
