Korean TV series: King of Peninsula 1997

Chapter 553 Causes and Consequences

Dinner.

After wandering around among the guests, Lee Woo-jeong, Cho Chang-sik and Choi Chang-di gathered together to chat.

Every Chief Prosecutor of a Grand Prosecutor's Office has a dream of becoming the Prosecutor General. Cho Chang-sik is no exception. He has been the Chief Prosecutor for ten years and has been in the procuratorial system for twenty years.

"Chief Prosecutor Cho," Li You held up his wine glass and extended his hand to introduce Choi Chang-di, "I haven't been able to introduce you to you before. This is Congressman Choi Chang-di of the Grand National Party."

Zhao Changzhi greeted Emperor Cui Changdi with a happy face.

An interesting point about the Korean Peninsula is that although there is a separation of powers, the direct superior of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office is the Ministry of Justice under the Blue House, and the Minister of Justice is nominated and appointed by the President. However, the prosecutors of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office dare to challenge the Blue House.

A very strange and ridiculous bureaucracy.

But Zhao Changzhi now sees his own abilities clearly. If he relies on himself, the position of prosecutor is his limit.

He needs more connections, more mentors and more promotions.

If Congressman Choi Chang-je is successful in his presidential campaign next year
That really means great things can be accomplished.

"Chief Prosecutor Zhao has been a prosecutor for more than 20 years," Cui Changdi said politely, "and he is also my predecessor. We have never met before. Today, it is all thanks to Chairman Li."

In terms of seniority, Choi Changdi, the junior prosecutor, is indeed Cho Changsik's junior.

"No need to say more," Zhao Changzhi did not put on airs as a senior, "With Chairman Li here, we are all friends."

The three of them clinked their glasses and took a sip of wine.

"I didn't expect Chairman Lee to invest so much in the hotel industry," Cho Chang-sik didn't ask about the presidential campaign. Their relationship hadn't really progressed yet, so asking around would lead to trouble. "Are you optimistic about the future development of the hotel industry?"

"Almost..." Li You nodded with a half-smile, "It's part of my plan. Chief Prosecutor Zhao has to take care of it."

Zhao Changzhi laughed and said, "Of course I have to keep Chairman Li's matter in my heart."

"Of course," Li You raised his glass towards Emperor Cui Chang, "Councilman Cui should also take care of the hotel business."

"No problem," Emperor Cui Chang raised his glass and drank calmly.

Seeing that Emperor Choi Chang seemed to be cautious in his words and actions, Zhao Changzhi knew that Emperor Choi Chang and Lee Woo had something to say in private, which must involve the actions the two were going to take behind the scenes in the presidential election, and he needed to stay away.

This is understandable, after all, there are too many backstabbing people nowadays.

Zhao Changzhi still had that smiling face, and tactfully did not ask any irrelevant questions. After chatting about family matters for a while, he greeted Li You and Cui Changdi in a low voice, said goodbye to the two, and went to other parts of the banquet hall to talk with other guests.

Cui Changdi looked at his back and was no longer silent. "President Nim is optimistic about Prosecutor Zhao?"

"Is it good?" Li You shook his head. "Is it good or not? It's secondary. For me, being in a high position, the most important thing is whether I am obedient enough."

"It is clear that Chief Prosecutor Zhao is a sensible and intelligent person."

"Of course," Li You smiled at him, took the initiative to reach out and touch his glass with his own, and took a sip of wine slowly, "Congressman Cui, there is no need to do this."

The corners of Cui Changdi's mouth curved slightly, and he nodded, but he didn't believe it at all in his heart.

"No matter how you look at Chief Prosecutor Zhao's qualifications, he is qualified to be the chief prosecutor," Li You shook the glass, and the little wine left in it swirled around. "According to the regulations, if you want to become the chief prosecutor of the Great Prosecutor's Office, you must have more than fifteen years of experience in local prosecution, but in reality this period is generally around twenty-five years. If you want to become the chief prosecutor of the High Prosecutor's Office or above, you need more than ten years of experience in prosecution."

“No matter how capable you are, you still have to work hard to gain experience.”

This is the rule of the prosecutorial system. Even Park Tae-soo, who was loyal to Lee Woo, worked as a prosecutor in the countryside for several years, and then worked as a prosecutor in Seoul with Han Kang-sik for several more years. Only after he met the deadline was Lee Woo's time limit and he was promoted to the position of prosecutor general.

But just like Park Tae-soo, these people who are promoted on time all have a very deep network of connections, and it normally takes about fifteen years for them to gain experience.

"The last time Chief Prosecutor Cho wanted to compete for the position of Chief Prosecutor," Li You recalled with a smile, "I was just an ordinary person who had just retired, and Councillor Choi was still the Chief Prosecutor with the nickname 'Soonyang's Son-in-law'. I won't say anything, but at that time he was two levels higher than Councillor Choi."

"Unfortunately, he had just completed the required fifteen years of prosecutorial experience at that time," Li You put down the empty cup. "Unfortunately, he chose the wrong side at that time and voted for Councillor Li Lianchang who lost the election. When Councillor Li won the last election, he took advantage of this momentum to return to the position of Chief Prosecutor of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office."

In Seoul, the Supreme Prosecutors' Office is always superior to any local prosecutors' office, even the five local prosecutors' offices in Seoul.

Zhao Changzhi bet on Li Lianchang in two consecutive elections. After the first failure, not only did he fail to win the position of Prosecutor General, he was also sent to a local procuratorate to serve as Prosecutor General. After the second success, he returned to the position of Prosecutor General of the Supreme Procuratorate.

"Prosecutor Zhao acted decisively for the third time and climbed towards the position of Prosecutor General again," Li You said softly.

For example, within the Grand National Party, there is a complex network of interests and tangled interpersonal relationships. Choi Chang-e was unable to succeed in the presidential election, let alone in the party's internal election, because he had the support of Lee Yeon-chang and Lee Woo behind him.

Otherwise, this party election would have been a competition between Ms. Park and Lee Myung-hak for a spot in the presidential election.

Therefore, Emperor Choi Chang really wanted Cho Chang-sik's support, but he came from the prosecutorial system and knew too well the complexity of the system. Once a prosecutor went crazy and wanted to investigate someone, even the president would find it difficult to stop it.

There is no problem with Emperor Cui Chang's ability, and his personality is also easy to control, otherwise Chen Yangzhe would not have been able to control him for ten years. However, he always likes to play peacemaker and is always hesitant.

Emperor Cui Chang understood Li You's intention and made his third bet.
"President-nim," Cui Changdi sighed, "It's too early to say this."

It's not that he wants to delay time, but things don't necessarily develop according to the plan.

Although Li You is powerful, he can only provide him with the greatest help. However, the political world is inherently complicated, and sometimes it is possible for the weak to defeat the strong.

Especially now, Li You is secretly opposed by many members of other political parties, and there may be unexpected events in the general election.

"Don't worry, Councillor Choi."

Li You shook his head. "It is true that the weak can defeat the strong, but I will clean up these messes and let you have nothing to worry about."

Seeing that Li You had expressed his opinion, Emperor Cui Chang could only solemnly offer Li You a glass of wine and said, "Then I'll leave everything to Chairman Li."

Watching Emperor Cui Chang drink most of the wine in the glass, Li You raised his hand and patted Emperor Cui Chang on the shoulder, "Councilman Cui might as well communicate more with others. They also admire Councilman Cui."

He walked away, and soon other people came forward to greet Emperor Cui Chang.

"lady.."

"lady."

Li You wanted to take this opportunity to leave, but he heard continuous greetings and footsteps coming towards him.

He turned his head and saw Mou Xianmin holding up the hem of her evening dress and walking towards him leisurely in high heels.

Li You stretched out his hand and let Mou Xianmin, who was walking over, hold it. "Why are you here?"

"I'm free," Mou Xianmin whispered, and raised his hand to greet the people around him in a friendly manner.

"You have nothing to do now," Li You chuckled, "but your employees will be busy."

Mou Xianmin held Li You's arm tighter, and leaned softly against his. She smiled and said, "It seems that our President Li is still very concerned about whether I am busy or not."

Li You did not refute it, saying that it was normal to have some small emotions.

He and Mou Xianmin did not stay in the banquet hall for long, but quickly went to the top floor.

The lights here were not turned off and still emitted a red light.

"Can you tell me now?" Mou Xianmin pulled Li You to sit down, not caring whether he knew the place or not. "Is the prospect of the hotel industry really so good that it would allow you to invest so much?"

"Time, energy, and money," Mou Xianmin counted on his fingers, "Money alone is fine, but it's mainly a waste of time and energy. When I asked you before, you thought I was asking you a riddle."

As she spoke, she couldn't help but pat Li You's hand.

The big hand was originally supporting her neck, but gradually it moved along her swan neck and down her dark red dress, and the fishbone corset that was so tight that it could not be held in one hand was soon partially pulled open by the big hand.

Mou Xianmin pressed Li You's hand unhappily, as if she would not continue until he said it.

"Okay, okay," Li You smiled.

"This is not to create the underground world I want," Li You shrugged lightly, "I briefly mentioned the Continental Hotel to you before, and the two have similar meanings."

Mou Xianmin was a little worried, "Wouldn't that allow them to govern themselves?"

"How about this?" Li You pulled his hand away and placed it on the back of her hand. "I handle all the reports by myself? That's the underground world of the entire Korean Peninsula. Even the kings in ancient times didn't have to work that hard."

He knew what Mou Xianmin was worried about. In fact, with his power now growing to this extent, it wasn't just her. Those who were loyal to him also began to become suspicious, thinking that someone would betray him.

Looking at Li You's expression, Mou Xianmin sighed, not knowing how to persuade him, "You are almost thirty years old. Although no one has betrayed you along the way, you still have to be on guard."

"Don't worry. I know what's going on."

Li You nodded and started moving his hands again. The fine silk of the evening dress soon piled up at the waist and hips.

Mou Xianmin wanted to stop Li You, but she didn't have the strength to do so. Then she thought of the three women who were still in the villa, so she just let him do it.

Mou Xianmin was rarely shy as she was pushed by Li You to the glass wall on the top floor. Although she knew it was a one-way relationship, she still felt nervous.

The light in the room made the glass at night reflect her face. Her thick eyelashes cast a light dark blue shadow at the end of her eyes, but her eyes were already sparkling and flowing with intoxicating starlight.

She slightly tilted her head to reveal the moonstone earring on her earlobe, but as she shyly turned her head away, Li You held her cherry lips in his. The half-melted rose-colored paste was swallowed by Li You, and her lip beads after the lips were parted were gleaming with a moist luster.

She hadn't been working out much recently, so she had a little bit of delicate white flesh around her waist, but it felt good.

Li You put his arm around her waist, turned her around, and carried her back into the private room.

She didn't even need to walk, Li You's abundant arm strength carried her away, revealing her long and straight legs as she walked. The expensive evening dress that was not completely removed dragged on the ground, revealing her skin that glowed like mother-of-pearl.

When she arrived at the private room, the stiletto heels of her 12-centimeter silver-gray high-heeled shoes, which should have been on the ground, pointed upwards, the arch of her foot formed an elegant curve, and the platinum snake-bone chain tied around her ankle swayed.

"."

After the private room quieted down, Mou Xianmin felt embarrassed and annoyed for a moment.

"I really can't stand you," Mou Xianmin frowned, "What's wrong with you recently? Why are you so excited every day?"

She was muttering to Li You under her breath while collecting dresses from the ground, but most of what she collected were fragments. She was so angry that she turned around and bit Li You on the lips.

Mou Xianmin muttered to herself, feeling a little puzzled, but her body was very honest and she was actually quite keen on it.

It was only after biting it that I realized something was wrong with Li You's expression.

"What's wrong?" Mou Xianmin was very confident in Li You's health. She just thought that something made Li You remember.

Li You hugged her unconsciously, holding Mou Xianmin, who was naked and had a soft body, into his arms.

There is a problem.
Li You was thinking carefully about the question that Mou Xianmin had just raised unintentionally.

He has always been a man with strong self-control and has never been as interested in women as he is now.

Li You rubbed his temple, wondering if it had anything to do with [Brain Development].

If the brain is developed according to the movies and TV shows of the past, the more it is developed, the more human desires are lost. But now, could it be the exact opposite?
Some time ago, he just naturally felt that now that he had both status and wealth, it was time to enjoy it, but now it seems wrong to reminisce about it.

Jeju Island.
Li You thought of Dr. Bai, the expert, and it was time to go visit him.

However, before going to Jeju Island, the matter of the manor must be finalized first to avoid the four women becoming jealous of each other under his nose.

Li You hugged her tighter and noticed that Mou Xianmin was abnormal. "Don't look at her anymore." Mou Xianmin said weakly.

Li You suddenly found it funny, "I didn't move at all."

Mou Xianmin pulled their bodies together again, with the curves of their waists and hips like the meeting of waves and reefs.

"."

Fortunately, the housekeeper brought clothes, otherwise Mou Xianmin really didn’t know how to leave.

She grabbed Li You's arm, her face flushed slightly, and she squeezed in with Li You when getting on the bus.

It's funny to say, but every time the two of them are together these days, they rarely have time to talk seriously about things.

In the car, Li You did not do anything. Mou Xianmin was also tired and felt that she could not stop Li You from going back to deliver three more private rations, so she simply started talking about business.

After listening to Li You's story about the Continental Hotel, I finally came to my senses.

“You are so confident” Mou Xianmin shrank back.

"I always say that," Li You stretched out his hand to tidy up her long hair, "Now every move I make, people on the Korean Peninsula are paying attention to it, and they are not just starting to pay attention to it, but no one can imitate me."

"They always think that something will happen next time," Li You hugged the quiet Mou Xianmin, "This time the risk is very high...something will definitely happen to him."

"Once I succeed this time, they will slap their thighs and regret why they couldn't keep up."

“The next time I do something risky, they’ll do the same thing.”

Mou Xianmin was just leaning against him and listening to him. After hearing this, he began to explain, "It's not that I don't trust you, I'm just a little worried."

Li You waved his hand: "I know."

"That's why I explained it to you," Li You patted her, "Change the subject, don't be so worried."

Mou Xianmin pondered for a moment and dragged the topic back to the manor, "Are you going to deal with the manor soon?"

"Yes," Li You pinched her cheek, "This manor will become the power center of the Li family."

Mou Xianmin pursed her lips and said, "I won't say more. I know you must have a lot of plans, and there's not much I can do for you now."

It is hard to say that Mou Xianmin is now in a big gap. After all, the closer people are to Li You, the more they know how powerful Li You is now, and the greater the psychological gap will be.
This is still the case even though she is now the female president of Xiancheng Group.

This is also why I always show jealousy inadvertently during this period of time.

Mou Xianmin patted his shoulder and leaned his cheek closer, "Maybe it's time for us to have a baby?"

"Child?" Li You nodded, then shook his head. "I'm going to Jeju Island in a few days. I'll confirm this matter after I come back."

Mou Xianmin was a little confused, but still responded obediently.

"As for the matter of the manor," Mou Xianmin bit her lip, which had bite marks and the lipstick on it had long been eaten away, "or should we go to Zheng Xinzhai?"

Li You saw that she was a little jealous, so he simply put his hand around her waist and said, "After we talked that day, I also asked someone to conduct an investigation. The location of Zhengxinzhai is good enough and the area is large enough. It is just the right place to be inherited."

"I knew you were not honest," Mou Xianmin reached out to grab his arm, but his hand had already gone deep inside.

Soon, Mou Xianmin, with a blushing face, saw the car start to slow down, and slapped Li You's arm with a little force, "We're here!"

"It's still a little distance away, don't worry." Li You stretched out his hand and then hooked Mou Xianmin into his arms. "I don't like the house in Zhengxinzhai, so I have to tear it down and rebuild it, but the layout of other areas is very good, so I just need to make some minor adjustments."

Mou Xianmin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She was really a little afraid that Li You would move into Zhengxinzhai.

Mou Xianmin also understood that in addition to being interested in this good geographical location, Li You also wanted to resolve the matter quickly.

Is it because of 'inheritance'?
Mou Xianmin felt that he had figured out Li You's thoughts. He wanted to quickly build a place that could be passed down as a family inheritance.

Mou Xianmin raised his hand and drew circles on Li You's chest, "Do you know that it is very troublesome to demolish Zhengxinzhai?"

"No one cares what your reasons are. They just know that you razed all the heirlooms of the Shunyang Group."

Li You didn't really care, "What's the point of this? Don't worry about it."

Mou Xianmin pursed his lips and sighed softly, "You have to be careful when you cover the sky with one hand."

The car had stopped and Mou Xianmin was lying in Li You's arms. Without Li You's instructions, no one came to open the door without permission.

After finishing the conversation about Zheng Xinzhai, Li You hugged her and didn't do anything else.

"What I am doing now is a journey that I must take," Li You gently comforted Mou Xianmin, "Don't focus on the obvious property and power, they can be easily destroyed."

"Now Kinmen Group has spread its footprint all over the Korean Peninsula," Li You smiled. "What I have to do is to make these industries that have set foot in various places truly integrate into the local area and unilaterally tie the Korean Peninsula to me and Kinmen Group."

In fact, the chaebols have already done part of this. At least if the top chaebols are not allowed to take control, there will really be economic turmoil, and large-scale unemployment will also lead to social instability.

Li You wants to take this situation even further. Without his control, crime will surge.

"After all this talk, it all comes back to this."

"So the hotel is a very important step. The competition in real estate is very fierce, but the Golden Gate Group has emerged," Li You said calmly, "and the hotel plan is because the countries where the other giants of the High Table are located do not have such loose rules as the Korean Peninsula."

He didn't explain it in detail to Mou Xianmin as it would take too much time.

There are many things on the Korean Peninsula that rely on politics, whether it is business or the reshaping of the underworld. Li You cannot ignore politics, otherwise the hotel will be like duckweed after it is established.

Li You has achieved such a big success that he rarely eats alone, even in the hotel industry that relies on Kinmen Real Estate. In order to reshape the underground world, he has paid some financial benefits to maximize his control over local political power so that he can achieve his goals faster and better.

Mou Xianmin stared at Li You as he gestured to someone to come and open the door. While she was distracted, Li You carried her out of the car and walked into the villa.

The woman looked at Li You, who was looking at the entire map of the Korean Peninsula. She felt that she was a little sentimental, which was a good thing.

She just silently made up her mind that she must be the first to get pregnant, and as she thought about it, she hugged her baby even tighter.

A woman's heart, a needle under the sea.

Mou Xianmin never underestimates her opponents, not even Jun Ji-hyun, who has the lowest status. She will not underestimate anyone that Li You can bring over.

Not only the legitimate son, but also the eldest son.

The interest relationship of the Kinmen Group had already become very complicated after the introduction of the Shunyang Group. Of course, the four women had to be friendly in front of Li You, but who would Pang Ran know what they were actually thinking.

When they saw Mou Xianmin being carried in by Li You and changing her clothes, the other three women who came out to greet her had different expressions.

Li You put her on the sofa, went into the massage room, and waved at Jun Ji-hyun, "Come here and give me a massage."

If she had not been a celebrity, she would indeed be a very homely woman. After being possessed by Li You in various ways, she even took the initiative to learn a lot of things. The other three women who had been working for a long time did not have the time to learn these things.

Jun Ji-hyun took off her slippers and sat sideways next to Lee Woo. Her bare feet were very white, and her ten toes were stretched out, with red nail polish on her nails.

She stretched out her hand and pressed hard. Due to how strong Li You's body was, she had to use a lot of strength every time she massaged him.

Under her guidance, Li You slowly relaxed his mind and fell asleep peacefully.

Until Jun Ji-hyun stopped, he opened his eyes at the same time and reached out to pull Jun Ji-hyun over.

Alcohol and sex can hurt people, and Li You decided that this was the last day.

"."

"You want to see Chen Xingjun and his mother?" Chen Yijun spoke breathlessly as Jun Ji-hyun was lying next to him.

After Jun Ji-hyun fell, Chen Yijun still hesitated and listened to Li You's words. She finally had time to talk. She hesitated for a moment and took a while to speak. "Chen Xingjun has always been hostile to you. Now you have sent Chen Rongji to jail. He..."

After thinking about Li You's style, Chen Yijun sighed, "I don't think they can make a decision to oppose it. I'll notify them during the day."

The next afternoon, Li You's motorcade drove all the way to the vicinity of Zhengxinzhai, and saw a well-dressed man in a suit stop his car and walk towards the side door of Zhengxinzhai with a few women. It seemed that they wanted to stick to the wall of Zhengxinzhai, find the side door, and then go all the way into the house.

From the sneaky look on his face, you can tell at a glance that he is not a servant in Zhengxinzhai.

Chen Xingjun divorced.
Li You was a little surprised that they were using cheap products.

Li You had been to Zhengxinzhai before, but at that time Chen Yangzhe was still there and he was still a small figure.

There are fewer things in Zhengxinzhai now.

Li You walked all the way to the living room of Zhengxinzhai. No one dared to stop him along the way, and the security was useless.

There was also someone in the living room, but it was not Chen Xingjun, but his mother Sun Zhenlai.

This lady who once took good care of herself now has much greyer hair and an older face.

She looked at Li You and Quan Jae-joon behind Li You. After the hatred was suppressed in her heart, fear emerged instead.

It was not just because Li You annexed Shunyang, but because
Li You ordered people to kidnap her and her mother-in-law, but only she was thrown back, while her mother-in-law never came back.

Her family has been declining recently. Her father was a loan shark, and this business happened to fall into the hands of the Golden Gate Group.
"Chairman Li," Sun Zhenlai smiled stiffly and reluctantly.

Li You glanced at her casually, not caring about her feelings. He just waved his hand and asked Quan Zaijun to throw the contract to her. "Take a look at the contract. If it's suitable, let Chen Xingjun sign it."

This contract will not and cannot be inappropriate.

Sun Zhenlai looked at it in silence and was somewhat surprised to find that the price was quite reasonable.

She raised her head and was about to say something when she heard Chen Xingjun's excited shouts and the sounds of several women playing in the room upstairs.

Li You's expression was calm, but Quan Zaijun couldn't help but sneer.

Sun Zhenlai's face turned red with anger. She clenched her fists and walked upstairs with a lonely look in her eyes.

"."

A few minutes later, Li You sat on the sofa and flipped through the contract that Sun Zhenlai handed over. He saw that it was signed, and it was estimated that Chen Xingjun didn't even look at it.

Li You took the contract and left, "Move out in two days."

Sun Zhenlai just nodded his head and agreed, not daring to express the slightest dissatisfaction.

"."

A few minutes later, Chen Xingjun rushed down with his shirt off. Seeing that only Sun Zhen came to the living room, he glared at her and asked, "Did you sell Zhengxinzhai?"

He was in high spirits just now and only listened to a few words before signing his name. It was only when a woman reminded him that Chen Xingjun remembered what this meant.

Sun Zhen looked at his pale face, then at his skinny upper body caused by drug abuse, and felt despair.

"This is your own fault, Xingjun."
