Reversal of Life With Stock Cheats

chapter 16



“I’m alive thanks to you.”

Lee Shin-ae got into the car and fastened her seat belt.

I accidentally picked up a woman in the car, and my hands sweated as I remembered my wife’s gourd.

‘hit. We broke up now.’

What is it like to be alone now? My ex-wife made a ruckus for a week just by driving a female employee who was on a business trip with me. Thanks to that, I developed an allergy when I was alone with a woman in the same room.

But now that he had separated from his ex-wife, and no one would make a fuss about doing women favors, there was no need to worry.

“I’m sorry. I’ll pay for the gas later, so can you go to the office?”

It was customary for the broker to show us around in his car. It was like that when I visited in the morning, but this time I somehow got into my car.

When I sneakily checked the room mirror and entered the office of a realtor in the city, the man who had been flirting with the president licked his lips and took out a cigarette from the back and asked.

The man followed me to the entrance and stopped when he saw my Bentley, and he seemed to see a human bowl.

‘The strange guy is twisted.’

If you work in the service business, you will meet a lot of annoying customers. Besides, a young and pretty woman working alone was enough to attract strange people.

Even when I was working in the general affairs team, there were a lot of annoying people, so I wondered if it would be more difficult for people running their own businesses.

“The price of oil is gone.”

I drove to the office I liked the most.

Lee Shin-ae started chattering in the seat next to her.

“See that building over there? Right now, there is a movement to push that building out and introduce a multiplex mall. It will take a little time because the government policy needs to help, but since it’s a large-scale construction, the surrounding land price will go up. And You know that there is a movement to make Teheran-ro underground, right?”

Information continued pouring out of her mouth. Not all development plans went as planned, but there was nothing wrong with keeping them.

Information continued to pop up to the point where I wondered if they were trying to replace debt with information. He seemed like someone who had been involved in real estate for decades.

“If it were me, I would buy that building. It’s currently listed at 20 billion won, but considering the surrounding market price, it’s a building that requires 23 billion won. The landlord inherited it from his father, but I put it up for sale because of the inheritance tax.”

‘Should I buy one?’

Gangnam was the center of Korea. There was nothing to lose by investing as much as the resource of land was limited. Even if the population declines and the house price drops, there will be no way that the smart one, that is, the buildings in the yolk will fall.

Rather, there was a possibility that the phenomenon of crowding into the city would heat up and deepen polarization.

‘If you’re going to invest, American real estate might be good.’

But I didn’t know much about American real estate. Aren’t all ordinary citizens like that?

For now, I decided to focus on the problem in front of me first.

After driving along Teheran-ro for a while, the office building I had seen before appeared. I especially liked the fact that the front is made of black glass, so you can’t see the interior well.

Even Hanul’s building and the road were in between, so it was a position where you could say hello when you open the window.

I parked in the parking lot and went up to the 34th floor. On both sides of the hallway where eight elevators are facing each other, there were tempered glass doors that only users could enter.

One side was an open office with an interior that was rented entirely, and the other side was a hallway.

“Wait.”

When Lee Shin-ae tagged the card key she had kept from the landlord, the glass door opened. In the hallway decorated with plants, thick doors were located in a row.

From the point of view of people these days who value office atmosphere, it was like a warehouse, but from my point of view, it was fine.

‘Because the soundproofing is that good.’

The most important factor when choosing an office was soundproofing. So I turned on the music on my phone, put it inside, came out and listened to it repeatedly.

Now, the sound of singing could hardly be heard in this office. There was no risk of the conversation inside leaking out unless someone made up their mind and eavesdropped.

“Come in and take a look again. The location is good, the lighting is good, and as I said before, it’s a privacy window, so you can’t see inside at all from the outside.”

I knew it well. It was the building that I could see through the window when I was working in Im Hanul’s office. It just reflected the sky like glass, and I couldn’t see what I was doing inside unless I opened the window.

“Around here, 30 pyeong is 250 for 3000, which is a really good price. If you want a place away from the main street, there is also an office of 200 for 2000, but buildings with good soundproofing are not common as the boss wants.”

I knocked on the wall, put my ear to it, and looked around meticulously, but I couldn’t find something to do. I also liked the neat interior, as if it had been freshly wallpapered since no one had been out for a while.

The real estate agent was kind and the building he wanted, and Im Han-ul’s office was close by, so it was three birds with one stone.

“Let’s sign the contract the day after tomorrow.”

“The day after tomorrow?”

“Yes. The money will be ready by then. You can come in right away on Thursday, right?”

“Of course. I’ll talk to the landlord on the phone for a moment.”

Lee Shin-ae started talking to the landlord. I looked out the window as I listened to her reschedule with the landlord.

I could see Noh Yuri, who was sitting next to the window, tapping hard on his computer. Im Han-ul’s desk was not visible from this position, but he could be seen holding a coffee and instructing No Yuri from behind.

‘I’ll have to go get some rice cake on Thursday.’

I wondered what kind of expression he would make if he opened an office across the street. It would be nice to see you often if you live nearby.

Under the building, cars and people were busy passing by. There were also office workers in suits.

‘There was a time when I struggled to get a job at a good company.’

At one time they were my wannabes, but now I’m not so envious.

Lee Shin-ae approached, blocking the receiver.

“Boss. Is Thursday 11:00 a.m. okay?”

“Yes.”

Lee Shin-ae nodded and continued the call.

“Yes, boss. It’s available at 11:00 on Thursday. Yes. I’ll see you then. Thank you.”

***

The two days flew by. After buying furniture for the office and looking for the pants manager, it was Thursday before I knew it.

The beginning of the morning always feels good. Thanks to the increase in the number of items, the rate of return has improved, and the amount of money accumulated in the bank account has changed.

[Evaluation amount: 5.95 billion won]

‘1.4 billion in two days. Crazy.’

When the stock market opened, the valuation started to move again. A few hundred million now didn’t feel that expensive.

‘Thank you very much, Grandpa.’

every morning. I started my day by entering the value in the pop-up, checking the evaluation amount, and thanking my grandfather.

Looking at the bankbook, I had no choice but to post a thank you note.

“I’ll go to work.”

“Bye.”

He didn’t say much because I told him that the time to go to work was 10 o’clock. It was already time for my mother to go to work.

‘I’ll have to make him retire sooner or later.’

I thought of many ways, but it seemed that I would not retire without a fixed income. Sooner or later, I’ll have to think about what to do with my assets.

It was almost 11 o’clock when I arrived at the realtor’s office downtown. I did not forget to stop by the bank on the way to withdraw the down payment.

When I opened the door and entered, Lee Shin-ae greeted me with a bright expression.

“Welcome. Boss.”

“hello.”

Across from her sat a middle-aged man with his head half-naked. He also got up from his seat and greeted me with a bright face.

“I am Hwang Man-soo.”

“I’m Jaegu Kim.”

He took his outstretched hand, shook it, and sat down. It was a good-looking face.

“Then, since you’re all here, shall we check the contract?”

Lee Shin-ae put down the papers in front of me. President Hwang Man-soo was looking at the documents he had already received. I also read it carefully from cover to cover.

‘There are no toxin clauses, it’s a standard contract. There is no strange part, and the rental range is clear.’

The number of parking spaces was not bad, with 5 cars, and the maintenance fee was decent compared to the surrounding market rate. There was also a bathroom attached, and it was close to the emergency stairs.

I also checked the certified copy of the register, and although there was a little loan, there was little risk of the deposit being blown because it was less than 70% of the surrounding market price combined with the deposit.

‘The contract period is two years.’

Under the Lease Protection Act, the lessee is given the right to renew the contract. Through this, the contract renewal of up to 10 years from the initial contract date is guaranteed, so the period of 2 years was not short.

Rather, it was good that the contract period was short because I might want to change positions.

“Do you have any provisions to add?”

There was something to check before signing the contract. Looking at the landlord Hwang Man-soo, he activated the eyes of trust.

‘Use the eyes of trust’

A pop-up floated above his head.

[Reliability 65%]

[Cooldown: 23 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds]

If a person you don’t know has a reliability rate of 65%, that person is a very trustworthy person.

“No. It’s fine as it is.”

“I’m fine too.”

“Then, if you paint it, I’ll take it for you.”

When the stamp was handed over along with the documents, Lee Shin-ae began stamping it wildly. I stamped the landlord, the tenant, and the real estate agent, and finally, I put two documents on top of each other, stamped them, and distributed them.

“You signed a contract with this, did you bring a deposit?”

“Can I send it to the number in the special contract?”

“Yes.”

I opened the bank application and transferred 30 million won to the lessor’s account. I didn’t forget to check the landlord’s name meticulously twice.

‘When I bought a Bentley, the amount was so large that I had to bring cash myself, but…’

IT technology was hurray.

“I remitted the deposit of 30 million won. I will pay the rent in arrears as written in the contract.”

Launching a business will take time, so it was nice to get a deduction from the first month. The landlord also nodded.

“I see.”

After a while, a message came in on the landlord’s cell phone. He turned on the screen to check the contents.

“Deposit confirmed.”

“Okay. Then I’ll write down the receipt.”

Lee Shin-ae stamped the receipt and handed it over. Thus, the lease agreement was completed.

‘I finally have my own office.’

There was only one small desk in a position that was clearly visible from the manager’s seat, and that was my seat. It was a new feeling to think that one office would be mine.

The landlord held out his hand again.

“Then thank you.”

“I really appreciate you.”

took that hand

***

I entered the office with the card key handed over from the landlord, Hwang Man-soo. It was an empty office, but the thought that this would be my new home made my heart pound.

‘History begins here.’

A mythical artist in which the penniless Kim Jae-gu wins the victory by defeating the Dokgo Group with the help of the ancestor god.

I opened the window and took a deep breath.

“Sup! Ha.”

Even the air was sweet.

In the building opposite, I could see Im Han-ul and his old colleagues working.

‘I really owe a lot to Hanul.’

That was enough to be a benefactor. It must have been an effort to bring me back to life in its own way.

I wanted to repay something, but there was nothing I could do for Im Han-ul, who is on the rise as a startup president.

‘I didn’t ask first, but suddenly investing and installing it doesn’t look like a young thing.’

From my point of view, the metabus startup run by Im Han-ul was an item that would be a jackpot if it was properly penetrated through the distribution board. So even if it wasn’t me, there would be people who would invest in it.

Even if he tried to invest, he might be seen as a hyena trying to add a spoonful to his business.

‘I’ll talk to you if necessary.’

If he asked, I thought he would help me as far as I could. Because I had a secret skill to repair the damage.

‘Still, I can turn around the rice cakes.’

I remembered that Im Han-ul said in passing that department store roll cakes were delicious. Because you can turn something else.

‘I’m going to buy a roll cake.’

I bought the famous roll cake gift set at the food section in the basement of a department store. In particular, I bought a set containing a lot of green tea rolls, remembering that the taste of green tea was delicious.

It was embarrassing to only bring Hanul, so the other employees bought one set each.

‘Won’t you be surprised if I visit you suddenly?’

I knew the password for Im Han-ul’s building, so I entered the password and entered. As I got off the elevator and went to the office, I heard Im Han-ul’s urgent voice.

“Boss! You can’t do this all of a sudden!”
