Chapter 346

Chapter 346

“Which subsidiaries do you want to manage?”

“Something that’s big and doing well. I need something to match my power.”

“Alright, but Hanseong Electronics and Hanseong Energy are off the table.”

"What? You said you’d leave those to me!”

Han Seha was dumbfounded. It wasn’t like anyone else was trying to gain control of those companies. She was the only one interested in managing them...

“You are my grandchild, so think about it carefully and try to understand. Companies such as Hanseong Electronics and Hanseong Energy are very profitable, so the group relies on them quite a lot for sale. All the executives in charge are great people who have done great things that can’t be ignored. Granddaughter, you might be an A-grade hunter, but won’t there be a great deal of discord if I just hand you this powerful position on a silver platter?”

“What’s the big deal... In the global market, they’re just reaping the benefits...”

“...”

Han Seha’s words cut through Han Seonggu’s chest deeper than any sword. She had a knack for striking nerves. Nevertheless, Han Seonggu pretended not to hear it and continued, “If you have a hard time choosing, I can recommend a place.”

“Just say that you’ve thought about this from the beginning.”

“It’s this place.”

“...??”

Han Seha cocked her head at the name of the company, which she had never heard before.

Was there such a company in the group?

“You... You’re the god of investing...!” mumbled Aine, barely able to contain her admiration. It was definitely odd to praise Adaquaniel like this, but she actually deserved it.

‘She’s not human! Wait... She actually isn’t... She’s an angel.’

“Are all angels like this??” asked Aine, unable to contain her excitement.

“No, Adaquaniel is a bit special,” replied Choi Yeonseung with pride.

Astonished, Aine asked, “Have you two slept together? What’s with the cheesy talk?”

“W-that...?! It’s simply a matter of respecting her amazing skills!”

“I don’t think you’ve ever praised other skilled people like this...”

Aine was puzzled by Choi Yeonseung’s attitude towards the angel, but she let it go and continued, “...Anyway, this is amazing! Starting with Hanseong Electronics, we’re now making extremely aggressive investments, and it’s an absolute success. There are no losses. Honestly, I want to scout her...”The origin of this chapter's debut can be traced to N0v3l--B1n.

Adaquaniel, who was watching the eight monitors intently, said politely, “Miss Lawrence, if you require my help here, I would be more than happy to oblige.”

“Ah, thank you!” replied Aine instantly.

Slightly embarrassed, Choi Yeonseung said from next to her, “You said I’m acting weird toward her, but look at you...”

“...It’s because I’ve never met such a polite angel...!”

Aine had seen a few videos of angels, but she had never met such a polite angel as Adaquaniel before.

After they reviewed their investments, they took a short break.

As she was drinking the barley tea made by Choi Yeonseung, Adaquaniel said, “I’ve greatly increased the capital that Master gave me, so I’m going to start thinking about long-term investment. Buying and selling quickly can be risky even if the profit is great.”

Choi Yeonseung replied, “Yes, I understand.”

Aine asked quietly from the side, “You didn’t understand, did you?”

“Of course I did!”

Buying and selling stocks according to how the prices changed was a quick and easy way to make money, but it was also very risky due to sporadic changes. Thus, what if they owned stocks of a reliable company for a long time?

When it came to valuable companies, even if their stocks fell temporarily, they would inevitably rise back up.

“As expected... It’s something like that. Can’t I recommend the stocks of Dragon Industry?”

“All companies of Dragon Industry are unlisted, so outsiders can’t buy it.”

“I think it’s a great idea,” added Adaquaniel. She had studied economics quite a lot behind the scenes.

“There are advantages to putting stocks on the market, but the management is bound to interfere. Hunters like Choi Yeonseung who sacrifice themselves for the sake of humanity need a company that they can run on their own terms.”

“Adaquaniel, I appreciate your kind words, but Dragon Industry wasn't founded by me, but by Hunter Hwang Gyeongryong.”

“...”

Adaquaniel was silent for a few moments before casually changing the subject.

“...So I was thinking about the next company to invest in. Would you like to take a look?”

“Of course, I’d be honored to look at your investment list, Adaquaniel.”

Aine gladly accepted to check Adaquaniel’s list, but she was flustered when she saw the first name.

“...You want to buy Hanseong Bio?”

“Yes. Is there a problem?”

“Ummmm...” Aine let out a pained groan. Of course, she had told Adaquaniel that her idea could work because she had argued that the value of Hanseong Electronics would go up because of Choi Yeonseung’s relation with Han Seha... But Hanseong Bio was a bit... There was no way...

“Oh, for god’s sake... It’s fine! Nobody cares about that dump anyway.”

‘I don’t think this is okay...’

Aine, who was sitting next to them, looked at Han Seha with a dumbfounded expression. “Have you considered that perhaps your grandfather has given you this company as a test?”

“A test? If that’s the case, I’m not interested...”

At Han Seha’s words, Choi Yeonseung firmly shook his head.

“That’s wrong.”

“Uh... Really?”

“Yeah. Seha, if you have the opportunity to improve the world and take care of it, you shouldn’t throw it away.”

“...!”

Han Seha was touched by Choi Yeonseung’s earnest spirit.

Was that really the case...?

“But my grandfather didn’t promise me anything, and there are many other people...”

“What do you know? You just have to rise up and win. Are you scared?”

“W-what... Why would I be scared?!”

Choi Yeonseung’s persuasion was working, as Han Seha was getting worked up.

“You have to run the company well and set an example.”

‘Can’t I just hand over the stocks...?’ Han Seha thought to herself as she looked at Choi Yeonseung. She didn’t say it out loud because she felt that he would be disappointed in her.

“Alright, I’ll do it.”

“Great, I knew you... Wait. Didn’t Adaquaniel buy the stocks of this company?” asked Choi Yeonseung as he suddenly remembered about Adaquaniel’s plans.

Aine nodded at Choi Yeonseung’s question.

‘Did she predict this?’

A price surge caused by Han Seha...

‘...Wait. I think it might actually go down. I’m worried whether Seha will manage the company well.’

Han Seha was similar to Choi Yeonseung. They were both better at slaying monsters than managing companies.

Instead of reasoning with the executives, it was more likely that Han Seha would beat them up...

Aine looked at Choi Yeonseung and said, “If you’re so worried, why don’t you help her?”

“Me?”

“I’m not asking you to help her with management, but you can help with other things. You’re both A-grade hunters, so your abilities are unmatched.”

“Are you telling me to do this because you’re investing in the company?”

“...”

“Uhm... Fine, I’ll try to help her.” Choi Yeonseung decided to think about how he could help Han Seha.

“Everyone!”

“?”

Adaquaniel called out urgently, at which Choi Yeonseung was puzzled. It was rare for Adaquaniel to be so alarmed.

“Have you seen the news?”

“Uh, no, not yet...”

-A large Chinese clan, the Kunlun clan, has declared independence...Shocking!

-The city of Chengdu has been occupied and is in a state of unrest...

-The Chinese government criticized the ‘absolutely unacceptable act of treason.’ What are the intentions of the Kunlun clan??

“No!” Aine screamed. The global market was already in a bad state because of Guangzhou, and now there were more incidents going on in China?

As for Choi Yeonseung and Han Seha, they were amazed as hunters.

“How can a large clan do something so reckless?”

“Yeah, I don’t get it...”

Hunters were strong, but they were nonetheless human.

Hundreds of thousands of military units would come to suppress them, and there were also hunters with government positions. Wasn’t it suicide to take over an entire city and declare that they would do whatever they wanted with it?
