<h4>Chapter 181: <Monopoly> <monopoly></monopoly></h4>


    “I don’t think 100 billion dors is enough to warrant such confidence.”


    “100 billion dors is a number the media happened to pick. Do I really need to tell you that I am wealthier than that?”


    Woosung looked at his watch.


    “Tic, toc.” Woosung continued quickly, “I just got 10 million dors richer. How much do you get paid per year? 100 million?”


    Juliaughed quietly at Woosung’s joke. Jeremy continued to re at Woosung angrily.


    Woosung continued with a smile, “Tic, toc. Time’s running out. I could be making 10 million dors every second, yet I am spending this time with you. Why do you think I’m doing this?”


    Jeremy remained silent.


    Woosung continued, “It’s because I can make even more money with you. I just don’t understand why you won’t ept such a great opportunity like this.”


    “The government will never allow it.”


    Woosungughed loudly. “Chairman, I think you don’t understand the situation. The government has no power over us. People like us control this world, not the government.”


    Jeremy swallowed. Woosung was obviously determined. It was clear that Woosung would go through with this n with whoever that would ept his offer. Woosung continued, “China has the most to gain by destroying the dor system. If Korea, China, and Japan decide to designate this cryptocurrency as themon currency of Asia, it will be game over. Like I said before, I am ready. Do you know why I am trying to convince you?”


    Jeremy shook his head.


    Woosung answered, “China will be hard to control, but US is at least well-ordered andw-abiding.”


    “I can’t give you my answer right now.”


    “One week and no longer. That’s the best I can give you. If not, I will continue without JP.”


    Jeremy stood up silently.


    When he left, Julia sighed deeply and asked Woosung, “Boss, was that really necessary? He could cause us a lot of damage by getting the Federal Reserve Bank involved.”


    Woosung replied calmly, “It’s something we need to ovee at some point anyway.”


    “But the longer we can dy it…”


    Woosungughed, “Haha, Julia, you graduated 3 years ago, right?”


    “Yes, why?”


    “You’re so na?ve.”


    Julia reddened, “W… what do you mean?”


    Woosung took a sip of his wine and answered.


    “Do you really think Jeremy and the Federal Reserve Bank don’t know about our n? They already do. They are just doing their own calctions to see which decision would get them the most profit.”


    “So they already know?”


    “That’s right. The problem is, however, something like this has never happened so it’s not possible for them to calcte the oue urately.”


    “I see.”


    “We need to get this done ASAP. We need to take the initiative and be the first to do it.”


    “A, alright.”


    When Julia stammered, Woosung teased her, “What is this? Are you getting drunk already? You are so red.”


    “No, it’s not like that!”


    Julia gulped down a ss of wine and nced at Woosung. He stood up to the CEO of JP Morgan. His confidence was very attractive.


    Woosung said to Julia quietly, “We will be even busier soon, but it will be worth it. After we aplish this, you will be world-famous. You will also be very rich. Just keep up the good work.”


    Suddenly, Julia kissed him.


    Woosung flinched and stammered, “J, Julia, stop kidding around.”


    “Why do you think I’m kidding?”


    “B… because…”


    Julia got closer to him.


    Rose perfume.


    Blue eyes.


    Beautiful.


    Woosung’s heart beat fast.


    Julia said to him in a husky voice, “Boss, don’t you think ourst night in New York should be special?” She took another sip of wine seductively and continued, “I’m at room 1302. Don’t forget.”


    Julia left the room slowly. Woosung took a deep breath.


    ***


    Jeremy made a conference call to the CEOs of Citi and Bank of America.


    Jeremy said to them, “I just met with him. He won’t stop.”


    Citi’s Michel Ryan replied, “He is crazy.”


    Bank of America’s Sandy Warnick added, “He is just a young pup.”


    Jeremy closed his eyes for a second. He remembered the meeting.


    “It’s not like that. He is more than we expected. He could be dangerous. We need to do something.”


    Michael answered, “You are the only one who met him in person so I trust your judgment. To be honest, mypany already bought about a million bitcoins just in case.”


    Sandy added, “I got about 1.5 million of them.”


    Jeremy said to them, “We have about 2 million bitcoins…”


    “Hmm…”


    Sandy asked, “So doesn’t this mean we should ept his deal? If we miss this chance…”


    “…”


    “He is too big to destroy, but it’s too risky to work with him.”


    Jeremy suddenly changed the subject. “You all know the Koreanpany Daeyang.”


    “It’s famous for its semiconductor, yes.”


    “I heard Daeyang is investigating Kang Woosung. They n to frame him as a national traitor who got a foreign sponsor.”


    Michael murmured evilly, “So perhaps we should help Daeyang…”


    Sandy added, “We can also use anotherpany to start a patentwsuit against him.”


    “I will try to get help from the government.”


    “Alright.”


    “That’s our n then.”


    The conference call ended finally. Jeremy leaned back in his chair. He couldn’t stop the feeling of the uing doom.


    New billionaires were born every day, but Kang Woosung was different. Where did hee from? How was he able to do what he does?


    Jeremy sighed deeply.
