I Became a Scoundrel of a Chaebol Family

27. South Korea Has a Passion for Education

While the secretaries cleaned up after the banquet, I reviewed the timeline of the Grand Incheon Conference.

Since I’d invited an absurd number of people, I thought a lot must’ve happened—but surprisingly, that wasn’t the case.

That’s not to say there were no results. Things may have unfolded in a direction different from what I intended, but results were results nonetheless.

“In a way, the fact that the lawmakers provoked me might’ve actually worked out for the better.”

If those lawmakers hadn’t had the audacity to collectively blow off my invitation, I wouldn’t have gone so far as to kill off all the district mayors, and in that case, things between me and those bastards might’ve proceeded without trouble—a mutually beneficial relationship.

Sure, that would’ve been more comfortable. But in terms of “political power expansion,” it definitely would’ve been slower.

Growth and progress only come when there’s a sense of need, and I didn’t particularly feel the need for a political power base until those lawmakers snubbed my invitation.

I probably would’ve just played around with girls like Kim Eun-ji and focused on acquiring Namdong District, which was my main area of interest. As for the rest of Incheon, I would’ve just sweet-talked them into being useful.

But then these bastards bared their teeth at me and pissed me off, and that’s when I realized I needed my own direct political faction.

As a result, instead of just building shallow connections, I ended up conquering them—bringing seven female lawmakers under my control. I’m also preparing to trap multiple male lawmakers using a variety of methods.

On top of that, I spoke with Minji and got a promise from her to send some of the capable people under her into politics. Naturally, the top priority is the district mayors.
