Korean TV series: King of Peninsula 1997

Chapter 609: April and May, Secret Organization
“They are just crazy,” Choi Chang-eol complained during a meeting with Lee Woo, one of the few times he spent time on the Korean Peninsula since taking office as president.

"Because the six-party talks on the nuclear issue just ended not long ago and everyone has achieved a satisfactory result, why would they send a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier to Japan?"

"Isn't this just provoking the nerves of other countries?"

This was already early April, and it could be because Emperor Choi Changdi did not agree to lift all restrictions on imported beef while in the United States, or it could be because he seemed too pro-other side.

However, they dispatched a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, the USS George Washington, to be stationed at Yokosuka Port on the pretext of "fulfilling defense commitments and maintaining regional security in the Western Pacific."

Other countries are certainly not happy.

The situation between the North and the South, which had been becoming positive, suddenly became tense again.

The Korean Peninsula and major powers also issued statements of opposition.

For Emperor Cui Chang, not only were people bullying him outside, but people also bullied him at home.

Since the announcement that American beef could be imported, large-scale "anti-import" demonstrations broke out on the Korean Peninsula, and large-scale candlelight vigils began to be held.

Emperor Cui Chang knew he had done nothing wrong, Li You also knew he had done nothing wrong, and in fact, those who led the march also knew he had done nothing wrong.

The Korean Peninsula has a rugged terrain, and it is absolutely impossible to meet the supply by relying solely on locally raised meat, which has caused the price of local beef to rise in waves.

Although there is a lot of imported beef from other places, the competitive pressure on the local market will increase with each additional import.

Being good for the market does not necessarily mean being good for local breeders.

"That's the president," Li You chuckled. "Why do you think President Lee was so anxious in the last two years? It's so annoying. It's obviously a good thing, but there will always be people who incite the people because they don't benefit from it."

"It's already the end of April," Cui Changdi said, a little tired. "I've been visiting all the time, and after all the intrigues, I'm still criticized by the people."

"When are we going to the big country?"

Emperor Cui Chang calculated the time in his mind and said, "It will be early May. We need to communicate well and arrange the time for both parties."

Li You paused, but added, "In mid-May, according to the location of Asia, there is a possibility of a major disaster in Shu."

Emperor Cui Chang looked at Li You in confusion, and Li You spread his hands helplessly and threw the matter away. "It was discovered by the measurement department. I suggest you bring it up privately."

No matter how you think about it, this is a difficult thing to say, but Emperor Cui Changdi, who was on a state visit, mentioned it privately. Regardless of whether his words sound true or false to others, they will always have some effect.

When Emperor Cui Changdi met with Li You again in late May, he looked a little dusty. "Because of the disaster, they asked me to express their gratitude on their behalf, which greatly reduced the losses."

To Emperor Cui Chang's surprise, Li You did not say much about this, but just nodded and avoided the topic.

"During the time you were assisting with disaster relief overseas," Li You narrowed his eyes, "I helped you suppress most of the rallies in China. The rest depends on your own efforts."

"Thank you for your help, President Nim," Choi Changdi nodded politely, "I wonder if the situation in Busan has been settled?"

Li You gave him such a great help, so naturally he had to repay the favor. Jiang Changyuan was going to run for mayor of Busan in June. Choi Changdi heard that the situation was not very good and wanted to help.

But Li You shook his head and said, "Jiang Changyuan can do it. He is an old politician. Don't believe his crying and weakness. He just wants to save trouble. If you don't force him, he won't do it seriously."

"By the way," Li You smiled and looked at Emperor Choi Chang, "Is President Choi interested in going to Seoul University with me?"

"what?"

"Tomorrow afternoon," Li You set the time on his own, "Jo Tae-seop's speech."

Seoul National University, Law Student Union Office.

Jin Xiyu was brought in by a member of the student union. After briefly greeting the student union president Choi Kangzhen, the person who brought him in tactfully left.

After several months of study, the reborn Kim Hee-woo was admitted to the Law School of Seoul National University and enrolled in March this year.

"Come and sit."

"The professors all praise you," Choi Kang-jin invited Kim Hee-woo to sit down and went straight to the point.

“They are all professors.”

"Boy," Choi Kang-jin interrupted him and pointed to the luxurious office, "Don't be so humble. Those who can enter here are all smart people."

"But everyone says you're special?"

Cui Kangzhen narrowed his eyes, and seeing that Jin Xiyu remained calm, he took the initiative to change the subject, "So I hope you can join the student union."

"You should know," Choi Kang-jin said slowly, "Senior has paved a smooth road for us in the legal field, especially for those who have participated in the student union, their future is even smoother."

Jin Xiyu sneered in his heart, but immediately said modestly, "I know, but I'm not sure if I can do it."

"You are not only smart, but also cautious. No wonder people admire you," Cui Kangzhen is obviously a student, but he still acts like a senior.

"Let's go," he stood up and put on his suit jacket, "We can't let the senior wait for us."

Seeing Jin Xiyu looking a little reserved on the way, Cui Kangzhen smiled and said, "We are going to meet senior Zhang Yixuan. He is now a prosecutor in the northern district prosecutor's office of Seoul."

Jin Xiyu seemed to be thinking about something. Cho Tae-seop's many years of management at Seoul University Law School began to bear fruit almost from the graduating class of Jang Ik-hyun.

In another ten years, from the prosecutor general to the deputy prosecutor general, to the minister and ordinary prosecutors, Cho Tae-seop's people will be everywhere in the judicial system.

After arriving at this very private restaurant, it took a while for the dishes to be served before Zhang Yixuan arrived.

"Senior, you are here," Cui Kangzhen bowed.

Jin Xiyu also bowed, "Hello, senior, I am the freshman Jin Xiyu."

"Sit down," Zhang Yixuan, who looked simple and honest, waved his hand, sat down and looked at Jin Xiyu, "You give a good first impression."

"Thank you, senior."

"Kang Zhen should have told you about our organization?"

"What organization?" Jin Xiyu listened to things he had never heard of in his previous life.

"I haven't told him yet," Choi Kang-jin explained quickly when he saw Jang Ik-hyun looking at him, "I think it would be better if you explain it yourself."

"Really?" Zhang Yixuan glanced at Cui Kangzhen, "Xiyu, we have decided to include you in our secret organization of the law department and make you one of us."

"Secret organization?"

"Yes, this is a secret organization unknown to the law department of Seoul National University," Zhang Yixuan introduced, "but it is a private organization with a long history."

“You should know that nepotism is a big deal in our department.”

"Yes, of course I know," Jin Xiyu suddenly realized that this kind of nepotism has always existed, but it only became so strong starting with Zhao Taixie.

Long history?

Jin Xiyu was indifferent. "Although people attach great importance to academic affinity, our secret organization exists beyond academic affinity," Choi Kangjin took the initiative to pour wine while Zhang Yixuan was talking. "Why do we look for smart junior students?"

"Because talents climbing up from the bottom will inevitably pose a threat to those in higher positions, but what if we can discover outstanding talents in advance and let them walk on the smooth road we have paved?"

Jin Xiyu kept nodding his head, listening to what could definitely be described as 'corruption'.

"Seniors with outstanding abilities hold important positions," Choi Kang-jin said with a smile, adding, "Let the younger students accumulate rich experience, and when the time is right, pass on the position to the younger students."

Jin Xiyu looked enlightened, which made Zhang Yixuan very satisfied. "This will not only allow younger students to inherit my legacy, but also prevent others from climbing up."

"How is it?" Zhang Yixuan picked up the wine glass with one hand.

"Okay," Jin Xiyu forced a smile and raised the cup with both hands to touch it.

"There's nothing to say no to, being interdependent like this."

After the three of them finished drinking, Choi Kang-jin wanted to pour more wine, but Zhang Yixuan raised his hand to stop him, "You still have work to do in the afternoon, so drink less."

Cui Kangzhen suddenly realized, "Yes."

Zhang Yixuan was a little hungry, and ate. "The current judicial community is roughly divided into several factions, but we are one of the two most important factions."

"The previous Minister of Justice, several Attorneys General, Deputy Attorneys General, and the President of the Supreme Court are all members of our secret organization."

Zhang Yixuan did not mention the other sect, but if Jin Xiyu guessed correctly, it should be the Jinmen sect.

His guess was not wrong. Although Li You and the Kinmen Group had few available manpower in the political arena, they had many in the judicial arena.

Not to mention Park Tae-soo and Yang Dong-chul who are now deputy prosecutors general, there is also Cho Chang-sik, the prosecutor general of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office.

As the most important member of the Kinmen faction in the judicial community, after the previous Prosecutor General became the Minister of Justice, Cho Chang-sik had Kinmen and the President behind him. He finally got his wish and took the position of Prosecutor General that he had been pursuing for twelve years. This is also the top of the entire Korean Peninsula prosecution system.

However, Zhang Yixuan did not mention these, but simply introduced the strength of their faction.

"That's it," Zhang Yixuan snapped his fingers, "The explanation is very simple, I should understand it."

"Senior, what you said is very good," Choi Kang-jin applauded in time as a supporting actor, "How is it?"

He patted his chest and asked, "Does your heart feel very excited?"

"Yes," Jin Xiyu smiled, but he was thinking the opposite.

"This organization is equivalent to the national archery team. Compared with winning an Olympic gold medal, it is more difficult to be selected as a national player."

"That's a very apt metaphor," Zhang Yixuan nodded.

"Seniors," Jin Xiyu stood up and began to perform, "Thank you very much for your confidence in me. I will definitely do my best, even if it means my death, to live up to the expectations of the seniors!"

The performance left Zhang Yixuan and Cui Kangzhen stunned.

However, the two of them knew that this was a performance, but they were still very happy.

"Look at this kid," Zhang Yixuan laughed, "I am very satisfied with your character."

"Thank you," Jin Xiyu picked up the bottle, "Then let me toast you a glass of wine."

Zhang Yixuan didn't think much about it and picked up the empty wine glass, "Okay, pour it."

"Please take care of me!" Jin Xiyu expressed his loyalty while pouring wine.

"Okay," Zhang Yixuan laughed heartily, "You have a very generous personality. Today is a really good day. Let's work hard together!"

In fact, Zhang Yixuan had just graduated for two years, and his scheming was not as deep as it would be in the next ten years. As Jin Xiyu flattered and toasted him, he gradually forgot to drink less.

After three rounds of drinking, Zhang Yixuan got drunk and started to show off.

“Do you know DH Financial Holdings?”

"DH Financial Holdings?" Jin Xiyu narrowed his eyes.

Park Dae-ho, who is in charge of managing Cho Tae-seop's secret fund, is appointed as the representative
“I heard that they are planning a new vision and are planning to start urban renewal at the border of Songpa District and Gyeonggi Province.”

Jin Xiyu looked thoughtful, urban renewal means urban renewal, which is the reconstruction and renovation of old buildings and communities.

Most of the properties in Songpa District and the edge of Gyeonggi Province are owned by old men.
"They have already targeted the person who owns the most land and real estate in that neighborhood. His name is Wu Yongzhu."

"This guy is also known as the God of Auctions," Zhang Yixuan gestured. "As long as his problems are solved and he immediately invests in the urban renewal plan, he can make hundreds of billions in one go."

"How is it? Is it still amazing after listening to it again?"

A long time ago, Wu Yongzhu was forced to join Li You with a batch of real estate.

The two made an agreement that Li You would return the properties to him when he retired.

When Li You was still in Jiangnan Industrial, he helped Li You do a lot of real estate business and accumulated the foundation of Kinmen real estate.

When Kinmen Real Estate was first established, Wu Yongzhu also served as a consultant.

However, he has always been unknown, and there is no information related to the Kinmen Group in his files.

However, he later retired from Kinmen Real Estate on the grounds of old age and frailty, and Li You kept his promise and returned all of Wu Yongzhu's own real estate to him.

Perhaps it was the power of world correction that caused Wu Yongzhu, who had retired from the Kinmen Group six years ago, to get to know Jin Xiyu.

It was also targeted by Zhao Taixie's subordinates, and they decided to earn more development funds from here.

"What?" Wu Yongzhu looked at the young man he had just met a few months ago, "You want me to sell all the real estate under my name?"

"Yes," Jin Xiyu said sincerely, "and it's best to deal with it as soon as possible."

"why?"

"This is what I heard from a senior prosecutor. DH Financial Holdings has set its sights on your land and house."

“Why are you targeting my real estate?”

"As you said, that area is already being planned for urban renewal."

"Yes," Wu Yongzhu said complacently, "My hunches are never wrong."

"There may be political forces involved behind DH Financial Holdings," Jin Xiyu reminded him.

Wu Yongzhu nodded. The young man in front of him was the same age as Li You at that time, but his style was completely different. He did not have the ambition and iron-blooded tactics of Li You, but his vision was unexpectedly the same, and more.
Kindness.

Wu Yongzhu has also been teaching him how to do real estate business these days.
