The Youngest Son of Sunyang

Chapter 148 Luxury Show 1

Mayor Choi glanced at Jin Seo-yoon and asked cautiously.

"Do you really believe that Do-Jun will clear the way for you?"

She let out a long sigh toward her husband's question.

"Listen carefully. Oh Sehyun is the puppet hired by Do-Jun. The real owner of Miracle Investment is Do-Jun. So, that means Do-Jun owns everything from Ajin Group, Sunyang Auto, to DaeA Construction. You know, right? Sunyang Auto has a whopping 17% of the controlling stake in Sunyang Group."

Mayor Choi Chang-je found it hard to believe. Isn't he still in college?

"What's more amazing is that he accomplished all of that without his father's help. So if it's Do-Jun inheriting everything father won't have an objection. You understand it well enough if you add the shares when he passed of Sunyang Auto."

"Wait, did he grow up receiving father's guidance from the beginning?"

There was something in her words that seemed inconceivable to him.

"Did Do-Jun take away everything you received from your father, including the company?"

Even without hearing an accurate answer, he could tell. Jin Seo-yoon's expression told the truth.

"Unbelievable. Just how did he do all that in such a short time..."

Jin Seo-yoon sighed deeply before slowly continuing.

She talked about taking on the burden of Sunyang Group's debt, initiating the division of affiliated companies, and the misuse of Miracle's money, and finally the wrong stock investment.

When Mayor Choi Chang-je heard the past story, he exploded in anger.

In retrospect, it was Chairman Jin who intentionally left a gap in the hands of the young grandson for the Sunyang Retail, Jin Do-Jun, who used stock manipulation without missing the gap, and Jin Seo-yoon, who fell into the trap. They were all within his calculations.

"Stop. It's irreversible now. You understand my situation exactly now, don't you? Maybe I won't be able to help you. It's embarrassing to be stripped of everything and be like this, but..."

"That's enough." Mayor Choi gently held Jin Seo-yoon's hand. "You've lost everything you inherited, but you gained a formidable henchman."

"A henchman who will take care of my brothers."

"Right. If I can get something to cut the henchman's leash around your neck, then Sunyang will be in our hands, maybe even better."

"You're still so positive. I usually find it annoying, but today is a bit different. It's nice to hear."

Jin Seo-yoon firmly held Mayor Choi's hand after he clearly expressed his intention to work together.

"Good. I'll stick by your side until that guy crushes all the obstacles and rises to the top. Once the department stores and hotels are entrusted to me, you should aim for the mayoral re-election after finishing your term. Now that we can't rely on father's power, you need to do exceptionally well."

"Sure. I'll definitely aim for re-election, so don't worry. Oh, by the way, just in case, never reveal Do-Jun's true identity to your brothers. They might be a bit suspicious now, but they'll never suspect it. It's such an absurd story."

"Of course. If my brothers become cautious about the henchman, things will go awry. Be careful not to accidentally let it slip too."

Jin Seo-yoon confirmed the affectionate look in Mayor Choi's eyes that she hadn't seen for a long time. Was this what it meant to take care of each other when things got tough as a couple?

To think she had discovered this simple truth after crossing fifty.

"Come to the hotel sometimes. We can have dinner together. Do-Jun's power is significant. He still arranges for me to stay in a suite room. You know where, right?"

"I've seen the reports. Have you made a plan?"

"I'm preparing. But don't you think we're rushing a bit? Incheon International Airport opens in March next year. Business operator selection plans haven't even been announced yet. It feels a bit hasty for us to move first..."

"Finishing the coordination in advance before the fierce competition begins is your father's style, isn't it? Don't you know?"

Aunt seemed to have her pride hurt as she bit her lip. Final reports on major businesses across the retail group always went through his aunt.

When the landlord is strong, sharecroppers watch the landlord's every move. The landlord should always kneel before the strong. This way, the sharecroppers will remember who the real landlord is.

"You must already be familiar with the scale of Incheon Airport. We can't afford to miss the duty-free shops. Moreover, there's information that at least three duty-free shops in downtown Seoul will be allowed in conjunction with the opening of Incheon Airport."

"Anyway, we won't exclude our Sunyang, right? Since we always want to be part of the Big Three."

She still thinks that she hold the privileged position. It will be difficult to hold onto the Vice-Chairman position for long unless she dispels this misconception.

"Aunt."

"Yes."

"The Goverment is well aware of the changes in shareholders. They know that Sunyang Retail is now completely separate from Sunyang Group, but... that doesn't mean that they will not be watching what we do? The uncles too surely won't do us any favors. In the past, I wouldn't need to explain things to you, as you would are hiding behind the identity of Sunyang's princess. But now, if you get in any more trouble, Unless it's at grandfather's request, I won't act to help you."

Although her face still bore an expression of discontent, she no longer attempted to persuade him further. She had lived too long like a princess to suddenly change her position overnight.

"I will meet with officials from the Ministry of Finance and the Customs Agency and try to negotiate. aunt, please thoroughly check the duty-free shop entry documents."

"Me? The documents?"

"Who else would approve the final decision? You are the Vice-Chairman."

With no immediate response, she stared at him, her expression softened, and she spoke gently.

"Do-Jun. You still don't know me well."

"No, I don't. I've never seen documents before. But if you want to be involved in management, you must absolutely review documents. You must understand them thoroughly. I won't ask you to understand accounting books, but you should review other reports and plans."

"I understand. I will diligently review them. But that's not what I mean; I want you to use me more effectively and appropriately."

"I have plans to make use of your connections when the time is right..."

"No, what I do best isn't mobilizing connections."

"Really?"

"What I do best is leading shopping."

"Leading shopping? What do you mean?" I asked genuinely because I didn't understand. His aunt leading shopping? Wasn't shopping or fashion trends led by designers and celebrities?
