Another World’s Good Swindler 187

Chapter 187 – Black Moon

“I’m trying to get a reward from the executives.”
“…”
“…”
“…”

The room was quiet.

Despite being asked to pay the money they hadn’t paid in the past, none of the executives gathered in the room said a single word of complaint.

I’m just looking for someone to sit quietly and look out of the corner of my eye and look uncomfortable.

The seeds of distrust that had been scattered around busily over the past few days had firmly established themselves.

“Since everyone seems to have no opinions, I will recognize that you agree. Next on the agenda is the new textile business that will be launched this time. The initial investment required for the business, such as the factory site and weaving machine, was decided to be supported by Executive Danian.”
“What?”
“How did you set the conditions?”
“Even the smallest business… ?”

This time there was some commotion.

The allotment Dannyan agreed to receive was 10% of all future net profits.

To be honest, I was also surprised when Danny Ahn said he would only take 10%. I wondered if he had an ulterior motive, but I soon understood what he was thinking.

Because Danian was the youngest among the executives gathered here. He didn’t make much money compared to other executives. Although he has the fewest businesses and is inferior in rank, he may suffer losses right now, but he boldly invested considering the prospects of the business that will develop in the future.

It is truly the heart of a beast.

“For other executives, if the business expands in the future and production needs to be increased, so if money is needed, I will receive the investment money at that time.”

From the next contract, there will be no allotment. No, you may not need to get investment support.

The money is expected to come in monthly after receiving a bonus from the executives, so you can use the money to expand the factory yourself.

In a way, it may be the first and last chance. If you think about it that way, Danny Ahn’s bold investment is certainly not wrong.

“Danian! How much are you supposed to get?!”

Johannes asked with a face full of questions, but Danian just smiled and gave no answer.

The decision to divide the allocation by 10% is a trade secret. There’s no reason to talk. No, it’s better not to talk.

“I think it would be very rude to ask that. Johannes.”
“Okay.”

At my words, Johannes made a sound of pain as if he was uncomfortable.

Johannes must have thought that even 30% was less. He will not understand Denian’s behavior when he said he would get less than 30%.

“If I tell you one thing, Danny An-nim called for the lowest allotment. Johannesim called for the largest allotment.”
“It wasn’t a lot of what I called…”

I looked at Johannes’s slightly dissatisfied face.

Large organizations like the black moon are like magnets.

Just as when a magnet divided into N and S poles is split in half, different poles are created and balanced, a large organization constantly antagonizes, checks, and maintains balance.

Previously, the existing executives and the new executives who supported Herendal maintained a balance by opposing each other.

However, the balance collapsed due to our intrusion, and by accusing the new officials of treason and purging them, all forces were gathered under Germi.

However, their loyalty cannot last long.

The current black moon is not much different from the boss and the executives dividing the business and forming an alliance with their own forces, rather than the boss controlling everything from the center.

At first, Hergel, who had grown the organization with nothing but his own strength, would have only given business rights to the executives who stood on his side and worked with him. It must have been a bait to incorporate executives into his organization and seize them with his charisma and power.

So he is worried about what will happen after he retires and hands over the organization to Germi.

It is about whether the big-headed executives who have grown the organization with him will obediently follow the instructions of the young Germi.

Perhaps, if the executives, who have grown in size after their stomachs are full, feel inadequate about their positions, they will covet the position of Germi above them.

Germi must always be prepared for the blades that will rise from under the surface. Therefore, it is necessary to have strong power so that the executives do not dare to betray.

In order to lead executives with strong independent tendencies, strong power, in other words, a lot of money is needed.

In addition to that, it would be even better if we could take away the power of the executives. That’s why I came up with the original plan to collect the repayment.

However, if I just said that I would collect the bounty money, I would get a backlash, so I planted seeds of doubt. The word that there was a traitor was more effective in an organization called the Black Moon, where the executives had strong independence.

The more the executives check each other, doubt each other, and relax, the stronger my power to reign over them.

They will doubt each other by constantly submitting deposits that cannot be returned.

If someone with a sense of humor realizes my trick and refuses to pay the ransom, I can accuse them of treachery, kill them, and share their business.

Therefore, you cannot hastily refuse to submit the deposit.

This is a one-sided game.

Germi’s, my power will gradually grow stronger, and the executives will continue to pay the tribute by crying and eating mustard, knowing it, or not even noticing it.
Even if the level of the scale collapses and tilts completely towards me, even if the executives cooperate later, it will be too late.

If you completely seize the executives with overwhelmingly strong power and solidify the internal stability of the organization, then you need to expand your business. Reduce illegal business and rise to the sun.

Fulfill the promise you made with Natalya.

Promise, keep

I looked at the executives sitting in front of me with a resolution that was not like me.

Sitting around a round table, they are still glancing at each other.

“This is the end of today’s agenda. Executive Danian has to discuss business, so you can stay and other executives can stop going.”
“Okay… I see.”
“You did a good job.”

One by one, the officers rose from their seats and went out through the door opened by Natalia’s steel skeleton.

Only me and my girls, Hergel and Danian, were left in the room.

Danny Ahn took a deep breath from his seat and stood up.

“Whew… Thinking that there is a traitor among them makes me nervous… I want to go to the bathroom.”
“Yes.”

When Danian left the room, Hergel, who was sitting behind and watching the meeting, smiled.

“Funny. He is very resourceful.”
“Thank you for the compliment.”
“Germi, you’ve taken good care of the man.”
“… It’s noisy.”

Germi blushed at Hergel’s praise.

“Even when I left for Arpagon, I never thought you would come back with such a great man.”
“I have no eyes to see.”
“I can retire without worry. The organization is yours now.”
“… Suddenly?”

When Hergel smiled and said, as if he was relieved, Germi made a dumbfounded expression.

“Originally, life is sudden. As I said before, you took over everything by watching and learning from what I was doing. Besides, seeing your husband, you don’t have to worry about being stabbed in the back by the officers.”

Hergel got up from his seat. His well-muscled body seemed oddly dwarfed for some reason.

“I will formally hand over my seat to you at the cadre meeting next week. From then on, you are the boss of the Black Moon. Get ready.”
“It was always ready.”
“It seemed lacking in my eyes.”

Hergel stood in front of Germi who spoke boldly. The old tiger did not have the sharp eyes of a predator.

“In this father’s eyes, you were always a little girl.”
“Since when did you treat me like a daughter…”
“That’s what a boss position is like. He should act indifferent to his own family. Enemies might perceive it as a weakness. Actually, you’ve been kidnapped once, haven’t you?”
“That…”
“No, if I had been a little stronger, none of that would have happened. Also, looking at Herendal’s current situation, I may have been wrong in my thinking. Maybe I should have given you a little more love.”
“…”

Hergel’s face, saying that, was strangely bitter.

Herendal and Germi fought over the position of the boss. In addition, Herendal was driven to the brink of her death, and she is now a complete idiot.

For what his own son has become, Hergel blames himself.

That his own teaching methods were wrong. He said that simply raising children to be strong was not a good thing.

Hergel patted Germi on the shoulder and left the room. Germi stared at Hergel’s door without a word.

“… I didn’t know you would say something like that.”
“Germi?”
“I thought he only saw me and Herendal as beings to follow in his footsteps. Because he was a blunt person since childhood. Because he had never shown his family affection.”

She closed her mouth and hugged Germi from behind, who was looking at the door through which Hergel had exited. Germi’s tail gently wrapped around my waist.

“I will make you feel the degree of family and love in the future.”
“…”

Perhaps, what Hergel was worried about was not about losing the organization to the rebellion of the executives, but about the safety of his son who inherited the position.

How could I know what the blunt tiger was thinking?

“Oh, did I come at an ambiguous timing?”

Danny Ahn’s eyes met before he knew it. He was watching me hugging Germi with an awkward smile. I was going to inform the executives later anyway, so it wouldn’t be a problem even if I could see it.

“I thought it wouldn’t be an ordinary relationship.”
“Noisy. Danian. Let’s talk business.”

Her blushing Germi pushed me away with her tail.
