Chapter 53: Power is born in corruption



"President Li, which bank did you apply for the company's corporate card? The service rating of our Samseongdong Safe Depository branch is the highest in this area."

After three rounds of drinks, Yoon Seung-gil suddenly brought up this topic.

"If you need anything, you can always come to me, I will definitely satisfy you."

The Xincun Treasury is similar in nature to the Rural Credit Cooperatives in Rabbit Country.

Yoon Seung-gil himself is the agent of the Samseong-dong branch.

"The company's corporate card is opened at KB (Korea National Bank), and it was difficult to refuse because it was an order from my elders."

"Ah, so that's it!" Yoon Seung-gil's face showed undisguised disappointment.

The brief contact made Li Zhenyu extremely curious about this person.

The words were euphemistic and all the emotions were written on his face.

After being rejected by herself, she lost interest in talking to him and just focused on eating.

He behaved like a reckless child, or to put it nicely, he was frank and straightforward.

To put it bluntly, it's childish, stupid and self-righteous.

How did this kind of person get the position of agent and not be regarded as a scapegoat by the company?

What happened next shocked Li Zhenyu even more.

He actually left early using the excuse of "urgent matters".

Seeing that Shu Minxiu was so embarrassed that she wanted to run away, Li Zhenyu thought it would be better for him to leave.

Today's dinner went better than he expected.

Although from beginning to end, he did not deliberately show anything.

But, there are still some people who choose to blow themselves up! "President Li, wait, let's go to the living room to talk. I have something to ask you."

Shu Minxiu stopped him when he was about to leave and said she wanted to talk to him alone.

Li Zhenyu looked around and found that his aunt had left at some point, leaving only the two of them at the scene.

"Okay, another drink?"

"Of course, such good wine should not be wasted."

Shu Minxiu shook the bottle of wine in her hand, not caring at all whether doing so would destroy its original aroma.

At this time, even Petrus worth tens of millions is no longer important.

"President Li, what do you think of the profession of lawyer?"

"The bottom of the legal field, the prosecutor's retreat, the elite class..."

"Shame on law!" Shu Minxiu is full of contempt for her own profession.

In fact, this is also the current reality for lawyers in South Korea.

In everyone's impression, being a lawyer is a career path chosen by those academic mediocre people who failed to become judges or prosecutors.

The proportion of civilians who become lawyers through self-study and examination is the highest among legal professions.

Only families that can barely make ends meet would be proud of having a lawyer.

This also means that it is not a member of the 'privileged class', and non-privilege is looked down upon by the whole society.

That’s right, even if civilians are at the bottom of the contempt chain, they still hold this concept.

Otherwise, how can South Korea be called a 'distorted, magical' real society?

In addition, the prosecutor has great power.

In order to ensure that they will not be retaliated against by the powerful after retirement or exile, there is an unspoken rule in South Korea called "courtesy for former officials."

After retiring, prosecutors will work as lawyers in law firms or as legal advisors for large companies.

Just ask yourself, how can a retirement home for privileged elites be respected by the public?

But this doesn't mean that lawyers are really garbage.

In fact, it is more like a rugged and steep staircase with infinite possibilities leading directly to the highest point.

The climb is extremely difficult, but there is still possibility...

Lao Lu is the living proof.

"I want to go into politics," Shu Minxiu stated her purpose.

There are many prerequisites for entering politics.

But the most important thing is that it cannot be separated from the support of banknotes.

Shu Minxiu wants to start as a member of parliament and is seeking all possible help.

I saw the well-maintained, white, slender and crystal clear fingers lightly resting on my thigh.

Li Zhenyu looked at the pair of beautiful legs that were overlapped together, with the black stockings pushed open to reveal some flesh-colored legs, and his sight was filled with some evil heat and impulse.

'Does the other party know your identity?'

Li Zhenyu was a little skeptical, but he quickly dismissed the idea.

Although his identity is not a secret within a small circle.

But given Shu Minxiu's class, there is no possibility of contact.

Otherwise, there would be no need for her to bother expressing her intentions in a tactful way.

Be straightforward and tell yourself what she wants and what she can give.

Sometimes, it's just that simple.

"Constituency, whose recommendation did you get?"

Li Zhenyu naturally imitated her and gently stroked the texture of the black silk with his hands.

Hmm~ The texture is delicate, smooth and tough, and the coolness from the skin makes the friction more high-end.

This kind of guilty stimulation caused by impulse, under the bright light, listening to the subtle knocks and excited shouts blocked by the door.

Wow~ It’s like the temptation of the devil. Even though I know this excitement is full of danger, I can’t stop like a demon.

Even, there is a strong desire to go further.

Seeing that he did not reject her suggestion, Shu Minxiu hesitated and said, "There will be a vacant position in Dongdaemun A area."

"I didn't expect you to be conservative. I thought young people would be more radical."

"Conservatism is the best development strategy. Any radicalism or reform is only temporary and will eventually return to conservatism."

The political parties in South Korea are really too chaotic. There are countless parties of all sizes, and name changes are commonplace.

Today, due to dissatisfaction, people quit the party and founded a new party, taking some people with them.

Tomorrow, if everyone has the same interests, we will merge again and work together to start a business.

No matter how many times they break up and reunite, the real power holders will never change.

"What do you want?"

Li Zhenyu doesn't want to get too close to people involved in politics, but there are some things that he can't control.

Because of his identity, he is destined to be close to these people.

In the future, even if he wants to leave, there will be many people who will disagree.

Especially when the times are developing faster and the international and domestic situations are changing more rapidly.

Everyone wants to have a stable logistics base.

Therefore, since we will have to accept the fact sooner or later, it is better to sow the seeds while we are still free.

Who knows, it might bring you an unexpected surprise.

"Have you really decided?"

"Yes."

"Then let me see your determination... I'm going to participate in the MBC Music Awards tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow... How about we start with the polls?"

"Two days is too short."

Shu Minxiu explained awkwardly: "I haven't quit my job yet, and I need to prepare for the election office."

In fact, she still needs some time to convince herself.

Shu Minxiu felt that she was not ready deep down, and once she took this step, she would never be able to come back.

"This is where you need to show your resolve, isn't it?"

Li Zhenyu stood up, smiled, and nodded politely, "Then, see you the day after tomorrow. Maybe there will be a surprise then."

That’s all for today’s game.

He was looking forward to the choice the other party would make in two days...

Looking at his departing back, Shu Minxiu was undecided for a moment.

The man was so calm and confident that he had everything under control, as if he were a God who could decide all destinies.

Surprises, do they really exist?! "Minsu, he's gone." After finishing a game, Yoon Seung-gil had a look of triumph on his face.

"Yes."

Lifting the bottle and taking a gulp, Shu Minxiu walked towards the study: "I have work to do tonight, so don't wait for me."

"Can't we do it tomorrow?"

Not getting the response he wanted, Yoon Seung-gil shrugged nonchalantly and said, “Okay, don’t drink too much.”

As the door closed, the expression on Yin Shengji's face changed: "It seems that I can play a few more games tonight."

Rubbing his hands excitedly, Yoon Seung-gil ran towards the room impatiently.

Tonight, he was going to have a good time.

Hearing the faint shouts of excitement outside the door, Shu Minxiu in the study raised the bottle of wine again.

Gulp~ He swallowed the remaining red wine in one breath, like a cow chewing a peony.

Shu Minxiu tilted her head and fell on the spring bed next to the desk. Tonight she just wanted to have a good and quiet sleep.

However, the warmth of his palm made her toss and turn.

The heartbeat was filled with guilt and strong temptation, as complicated as tasting forbidden fruit.

It was a strong emotion that Shu Minxiu, a good girl and a child of other people's families, had never experienced before.

This kind of heart is beating out of control, the blood in the body is flowing faster, and it feels like the whole body is heating up and burning.

Her body curled up into a ball, and Shuminxiu's fingers moved downwards.

"Come pick me up at the apartment."

After calling driver Jin, Li Zhenyu walked into the cafe across the street and ordered an iced Americano.

Order now, no need to wait.

While drinking coffee, Li Zhenyu called home.

But he did not call Chief Amuro. He was not the only one who managed the household and had full control of everything that happened and was happening.

"Daisy, are you okay?"

"It's fine, but what made you think of calling me?"

The voice on the other end was very low, and it was obvious that she didn't want anyone to know who she was talking to.

Li Zhenyu understood her situation. Working in a secretarial office has never been an easy job.

“Are there any popular primary elections in the Dongdaemun constituency?”

"Why do you ask? Don't you never care about these things..."

Daisy, dressed in a neat uniform, turned and walked towards an empty alley. Was this some kind of signal?

"Just asking, can you give it to me?"

Daisy was silent for a few seconds, then said, "The Great Power Party nominated a new candidate, Shu Minxiu, who is a lawyer... His father is the executive director of the New Village Treasury Board."

Li Zhenyu asked, "Where is Area B?"

"It is indeed related to her. I did not say that she was a candidate for Area A."

“I guess so!”

Li Zhenyu did not deny it. This kind of thing was not worth him lying about.

"It's the four elections of the Communist Party..."

The Land Rover stopped in front of him and Li Zhenyu ended the call.

Things were simpler than he thought. The Great Power Party was at its peak, and the Seoul and Busan areas had long been controlled by the other party.

As long as they have the support of the heavyweights in the party, anyone can be elected successfully.

The key lies in the party nominees and supporters.

And the most important part, campaign finance...

In an age where value is the measure of weight, power is born in the corrupt swamp of wealth.
