The Underground Emperor: Starting with Running Away with His Sister-in-Law

Park Sung-bae slowly let out a breath.

He put on a smiling face again and faced Ding Qing and the other person on the stage.

About to speak.

Then, Tai Bingzhao, who had left earlier, swaggered back.

Park Sung-bae's smile froze instantly.

Completely oblivious to the two strangers in the stands, Tai Bingzhao shouted, "Was my performance just now alright?"

Park Sung-bae didn't answer, but instead desperately tried to wink at him with his eyes.

Ke Taibingzhao's comprehension was so poor that he didn't understand his meaning at all.

He continued talking to himself, "Cheng Pei, I think we don't need to keep acting. Those people are starting to doubt me..."

"President Tai, what are you saying? I don't understand..."

Park Sung-bae still wanted to struggle.

But Tai Bingzhao got anxious and shouted, "Hey, what's wrong with you? I'm being bullied by both sides and I'm not getting any favors from either side. Why are you pretending to be stupid?"

At this point, Park Sung-bae was completely out of options.

He remained silent, his expression constantly shifting.

Seeing his expression, Tai Bingzhao, though puzzled, felt a little uneasy.

Changing the subject, he asked, "I heard they hired a local ministerial prosecutor to deal with you. Shouldn't we also get a prosecutor from the central district procuratorate to handle this?"

Prosecutor...

Upon hearing those three words, Park Sung-bae had a sudden flash of inspiration.

Since we've already been exposed, we might as well play along.

He simply couldn't handle that idiot Tae Byung-jo, so he decided to use him as an opportunity to test the waters with the two people in the stands.

Thinking of this, Park Sung-bae channeled his inner drama queen.

He said loudly, "I'd like to look for them too. If I had 500 billion in funds, I could go find someone. But President Tai, I don't have any right now, do I?"

"Aish!"

Upon hearing this, Tai Bingzhao also became angry: "You're bringing up money again. Tell me yourself, how much money have you taken from our company?"

"ah!"

Park Sung-bae roared.

With a swift movement, he swept everything off the table and onto the floor.

He pointed at Tae Byung-jo and yelled, "Damn it, you're so stupid!"

"The development project in Minpyeong-dong alone is worth 800 billion! Do you think Annam only develops this one area? Huh?"

"How many times have I said it? We must persist in building the Datong commercial zone until Southeast, Caide, and Zhiping all receive their construction permits!"

As Park Sung-bae said this, he glanced at Ding Qing out of the corner of his eye.

Unfortunately, he didn't see anything.

Tai Bingzhao was intimidated by his imposing manner, and his attitude softened.

She said calmly, "But all you've been saying so far is talking. If the Development Committee and the City Council continue to oppose it, even the development of Minpyeong-dong won't be finalized, and the project will be delayed indefinitely. When will this ever end?"

Park Sung-bae was so angry he laughed when he heard this.

He slowly exhaled a breath of stale air and said earnestly, "President Tai, this is politics! We have to play hard to get, otherwise what's the point of me letting you infiltrate them?"

......

On the stands, Ding Qing and Ding Xin were also exchanging ideas.

"Ah-Xin, what do you think this mayor means?"

Ding Qing smiled with amusement.

"laugh!"

Ding Xin scoffed and replied, "What else could it mean? It's just for show..."

The development of Minpyeong-dong and that so-called Daetong commercial zone are just bait.

It is still a very tempting bait.

Just think about it, the budget for Minpyeong-dong alone is 800 billion won.

What about the development rights for other projects like Southeast, Caide, and Zhiping?

On average, it's 800 billion won per company.

That adds up to two trillion four hundred billion Korean won!

What is this concept?

It's worth noting that the entire Kinmen Group is only worth five trillion won.

This is still a premium valuation.

If Park Sung-bae's plan succeeds, and the Kimmun Group can be acquired smoothly.

That would mean a net profit of nearly one trillion Korean won!

Who wouldn't be tempted...?

And the cost?

Park Sung-bae just said it, 50 billion...

offstage.

The argument between Park Sung-bae and Tae Byung-jo was also coming to an end.

finally.

Even as Tai Bingzhao stormed off in a huff, he didn't notice Ding Xin and the other man in the stands.

can only say.

In the movie, his death was truly deserved...

......

"President Ding, I'm so sorry, I've made you laugh..."

A politician is a politician after all.

Especially shameless people like Park Sung-bae.

He was saying sorry.

But there was no embarrassment on his face; he laughed heartily.

"Mayor Park, what are you saying? I finally understand your good intentions..."

Having already dealt with him twice, Ding Qing was quite used to his style.

He can also effortlessly spout polite phrases.

See people talking, see ghosts talking.

After finishing the pleasantries, Ding Qing changed the subject and asked, "I wonder if Mayor Park's mention of the Datong plan is true?"

"Aigoo, Chairman Ding~"

Park Sung-bae said sincerely, "Of course it's true, but unfortunately, no one understands my thoughts. I'm doing this all for our citizens..."

"Those bastards from the Development Committee and the City Council are short-sighted; they only want to kill me so they can swallow up the 800 billion won project in Liangpingdong..."

"They've even gotten local ministers and prosecutors involved to target me, and I'm at my wits' end..."

"Although I'm upright and honest, the prosecutors are notoriously difficult to deal with, and I'm afraid they'll try to smear me..."

"If I unfortunately fall victim to this, then the Dalian project will be out of the question..."

His words were sincere and heartfelt.

It was as if Ding Qing's heart had been cut open and his lungs ripped out.

"I just heard that you need 50 billion to solve this?"

Ding Qing asked thoughtfully.

Park Sung-bae's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

However, he quickly covered it up.

He sighed, "Yes, as you know, a local chief prosecutor needs to be dealt with by people from the Seoul District Prosecutors' Office."

"Getting those people to step forward will come at a huge cost, but unfortunately, where would a poor mayor like me get the money..."

After saying that, he began to sigh to himself.

"That..."

Ding Qing was about to speak when Ding Xin interrupted him and took over the conversation.
