027 Everything in the world, according to the will of God (2)

What kind of family was Nobel?

They were the inventor family that produced Alfred Nobel, who developed dynamite and made a mark in the history of architecture and overturned the history of war in one shot.

Those who made great publicity in the defense industry could be said to be the people who would become the defense tycoons of the 1800s.

Even if the times do not welcome them, it is said that they are never the people who make laundry soap in the countryside.

Lee Hwan had no choice but to be surprised that such a Nobel family came to visit.

“Come on, wait! Is there anyone here named Immanuel?”

“Yes, there is. I hear a lot of geeks in the neighborhood.”

Immanuel Nobel was Alfred Nobel’s father, and he was so outstanding that he supplied mines and mines to the Crimean War.

However, now he was only known as a geeky young man who seemed to have at least one in the neighborhood.

Instead of losing German engineers, Lee Hwan attracted the creators of dynamite.

‘After all, they asked for three years to develop the artillery, so there is still time. Until then, it’s not too late to make detonators and explosive devices and make artillery!’

The fact that German engineers were stopped by the state while they were coming down did not mean that there were no engineers at all.

People from France, Spain, and even Hungary in Eastern Europe had gathered, so it was enough to start researching the core technology.

“good. Welcome to our East Stellar Company. Shall we sign a contract that proves that we have worked with our company in the future and start working in earnest?”

“thank you! Thank you very much!”

“Fufu, I have to give thanks.”

Even Lee Hwan could not even imagine how much benefit they would bring to East Stellar in the future.

Lee Hwan led them to the temporary apartment of the temple.

Recently, East Stella was building a building by importing cement from France, and Lee Hwan was working hard to modernize this concrete as well.

He said, assigning a room to a temporary apartment on the fourth floor.

“In the future, we will develop better quality cement and change it from employee apartments to high-end ones. Until then, please be patient, even if it is a little uncomfortable.”

“Is the floor warm? Did you use any magic?”

“Haha, it’s not magic. It’s called Ondol. The water was boiled and circulated throughout the building.”

“… … great! If you can bring these building skills to Northern Europe or Eastern Europe, you can become a millionaire.”

“Yeah, I think so too. However, our company’s capabilities have not yet reached that point.”

After three years, Lee Hwan was planning to advance into Northern Europe and Eastern Europe by perfectly mastering construction machinery, construction materials, and construction methods.

Lee Hwan’s goal was to solve the housing problem based on a novel construction method that would completely turn the history of architecture upside down and make sure that no one freezes in winter.

Perhaps once these technologies landed, the European construction industry could be monopolized by Lee Hwan.

‘In order to do that, we need to develop the heavy industry first.’

Excavators and cranes, etc., only the equipment Lee Hwan envisioned had more than eight types, and by the time he completed them, he would have already had considerable skills in transportation and military.

Lee Hwan, who moved the Nobel family into the company’s apartment, even wrote a contract.

That afternoon, Lee Hwan welcomed another welcome guest.

It was the Morgan family.

Steve Morgan came down with a large family of 25 people.

“The boss said that he treated me so well, so I brought my brother and my brother’s family.”

“Good job. You did very well.”

After a very hot handshake with Steve Morgan, Lee Hwan led them to the employee’s apartment.

As he was heading to the apartment himself, Steve Morgan pushed a man away from Lee Hwan.

Bullet nose, sharp eyes, and the typical impression of a handful.

However, the gun around his eyes was proof that this young man was an unusual person.

“This is my son John. John Henness Morgan, my son, but he’s quite useful. The boss wanted a competent financial expert, how about raising and using this guy? Of course, until that guy learns to work, I will mark it exclusively.”

There was absolutely nothing wrong with Lee Hwan.

But still, I was about to pass one short test.

He asked about what’s going on in the UK financial world lately.

“How is London City’s finances these days? it’s okay?”

“Money helps very well. If there’s one problem, it’s that there’s a lot of bragging about it and hiding it behind the scenes.”

“Are you proud of your future? What?”

“Stocks and bonds are all credible, and they are all deceived to be blue-chip stocks. While hiding behind the insolvency.”

In the past and now, in the financial and stock markets, there are bound to be things that put people in the back of the head.

Moreover, there is no systemized trading system like the stock market of the future, and there is no information network constructed and flowing through the computer.

Since people and people did everything, it was very open to fraud and mistakes.

Lee Hwan asked him where he should put his money in such an investment market.

“Then where would you like to invest if you were me?”

“Even in the neighborhood bakeries, they use their strength when they gather. You have to invest where you can get a monopoly.”

“Exclusive!”

“People didn’t even look at the mine before it exploded. Ironically, after the invention of the steam engine in coal mines, attention began to pay attention to coal. At that time, if I had had any interest in coal, I would have given up all my fortune and bought a cheap coal mine first.”

“Where else is there now?”

“I think it is right to invest in a vehicle that can carry a full load rather than a vehicle or carriage. Electricity to move it. If I could invest, I would convert it to a stake in the company and hold on to it.”

“What are you going to do with it?”

“It will be more expensive later than it is now, so of course we should sell it then.”

Clearly, John Morgan was an open-minded person.

Lee Hwan glimpsed the infinite possibilities in him.

‘After all, the person who will become a chaebol is different even if something is different.’

In the absence of future knowledge, even discussing monopoly and value investment with the operator, Hwan Lee was frankly a little shocked.

Even so, there are still many things to be improved.

“good. From today, please put me in charge of finance.”

“Haha, did you like my son?”

“However, if you pass the final exam after going through the probationary period, you will be officially hired. Of course, until then, there will be no regular salary.”

“… … Remedial?”

“There are still a lot of shortcomings. There is a lot to learn.”

That was then.

John Morgan was furious and asked Lee Hwan to listen.

“This is ridiculous!”

John Morgan shouts with his hands close to his side and a bulging nose.

“… … Why is that?!”

“Hey, this guy! Where is the guy who just goes out to the boss like that?!”

“father! Even so, it’s no wonder that I’m not short enough for being an elite in London!”

“Why does it make sense to just go through verification before being officially hired?!”

John Morgan is all good, but the problem was that he was hot-tempered.

Seeing Lee Hwan running around because of his unfairness, he felt that he had a long way to go, yet he felt that he would never be able to weave it with a leash.

He had a competitive temperament, and he was not someone who would work under anyone.

Still, Lee Hwan planned to do so until he could eat him up.

“What are your weaknesses?”

“Yes it is!”

“You forgot one important point.”

“Is it important?”

“It is too late to invest when coal is already slowly becoming an issue.”

“… … sure?”

“Before it becomes an issue, you should invest when no one knows about coal. Even when I wonder where the hell I’m going to use this.”

“No, does that make sense? How do you know when the steam engine will come out?”

Lee Hwan smiled softly.

“That is the difference in information power.”

“… … information?”

“The perseverance and intelligence that no one can shake. You should have it.”

John Morgan snorted even louder, then spat on the floor.

“Eight, heck!”

“Hey, you bastard!”

“That’s just what scammers say!”

Steve Morgan was terribly embarrassed, but Lee Hwan showed his palm to indicate that it was okay.

Lee Hwan asked him with a smile.

“like. Then let’s bet.”

“A bet?”

“I will invest 1 kg of gold in the Amsterdam futures market. So let’s double that in exactly three months. So would you believe it?”

“… … Are you going to gamble?”

“no. I will give it to you with the exact event I took and an additional explanation about it. If things don’t go as smoothly as they are, I’ve lost. Then do whatever you want.”

“like! If you lose, get down on your knees before me and apologize. And I will become the second largest shareholder of this company.”

Those around him looked so surprised that they wondered if John Morgan wasn’t a madman at all.

But Lee Hwan readily accepted it.

“Huhu, what would you do if you lost? Would you like to live with my arms and legs for the rest of my life without pay?”

“Sure!”

“All your private property belongs to me.”

“Please!”

“Choose carefully. We will write a document in the contract and have it notarized.”

“Don’t talk to me either!”

“Don’t worry about that.”

“Then the contract is established!”

Steve Morgan was restless and grabbed Lee Hwan’s collar.

Then he smiled bitterly and said.

“My son is a little lacking, so please forgive me.”

“no. On the contrary, it’s so great that it looks like that. As a father, I think you know it well.”

Sometimes it is the parents who try to cover up their faults by lowering their children.

Even though Lee Hwan did not have children, he did not know his feelings well, but if he had had such an outstanding son, he would have wanted to break his pride.

“I want to educate you properly this time. Trust me.”

“… … It’s education.”

“Your son is all right, but he seems to have a tendency to be overconfident in his abilities and view the world too lightly.”

“Yes, that’s right! There is such a thing, but even stubbornness is such a bullshit. … .”

“I will fix it. However, if you are officially hired, it is something you have to do at least once someday.”

Not empty words, Lee Hwan really made up his mind.

He knew all too well that if he fell into materialism and chased after money without seeing people, he would be terrified of being shot by the victims for the rest of his life.

‘Your son is going to have something like that in the future.’

In order to properly raise the Morgan family’s excellent abilities and tactics, Lee Hwan was very desperate to change his bad habits first.

“Mr. John Morgan.”

“… … why.”

“In the next three months, sugar prices will double.”

“Sugar?”
