Chapter 28 – Episode 28
Lee Myung-ho was curious.
What exactly is that friend’s concern?
“I don’t know.”
“… ?”
“The more I think about it, the more questions I have.”
What do you not know?
You mean you have doubts?
“How should I live?”
“… ?”
“What should I do for a living?”
What should I do to live a life without regrets?
Because the forgotten book said that Lee Myung-ho would give the answer.
I honestly confessed my doubts and concerns.
Myungho Lee heard the story.
Food.
Jinseong smiled as if he thought it was cute.
“It’s simple.”
Myungho Lee answered quietly.
“You can read.”
“Reading?”
“Yes, reading. If you accumulate knowledge, think, and experience, you will be able to naturally answer your questions.”
Reading… ?
It was a completely unexpected answer.
“Hmm, I guess I can tell you about IQ. IQ is something you are born with. This is a fixed value. My IQ is 130. “What is Jinseong’s IQ?”
“I don’t know.”
“Is that so? Great. So, let’s assume that my IQ is 130 and Jinseong’s IQ is 140 and give an example.”
Myung-ho Lee slowed down the treadmill.
“I have a life strategy. It’s about whose life strategy has the highest probability of success. “Which life strategy do you think is more likely to succeed, my life strategy with an IQ of 130 or the life strategy of Mr. Jinseong with an IQ of 140?”
“It must be me, right?”
It was an easy problem.
“Yes. Jinseong’s life strategy is likely to be more successful. Because he has a higher IQ than me. Now, let’s assume again? “With an IQ of 150, a genius, 140, Jinseong, and 130, whose strategy is most likely to succeed?”
“You must be a genius, right?”
“That’s right.”
Myungho Lee nodded.
“Mr. Jinseong, there are countless books in the world written by geniuses who are superior to us, by talented individuals with much higher IQs than us, and by brains who have studied, experimented, failed, and succeeded more than us. If we read, feel, and appropriately apply the books containing their know-how and strategies, the chances of our life strategies being successful increase greatly.”
“…”
“The question Jinseong has is also the same. Countless geniuses have already questioned the problem, conducted experiments, and published their answers in books. If we refer to the advice of those who are more genius than us and apply it appropriately to Mr. Jinseong, all questions will naturally be answered.”
To summarize Myungho Lee’s advice:
Read. If you read the book, you will find the answer.
It could be summarized as follows.
[Inner thoughts: Books are true teachers. The book contains the correct answer.]
[Inner thoughts: If possible, I wish Mr. Jinseong would be close to the book.]
[Inner thoughts: Mr. Jinseong is young and a good person, so I acted foolishly.]
Jinseong stopped the treadmill for a moment.
“Brother Myungho.”
I looked at Myungho Lee.
“Thank you.”
Jinseong bowed his head deeply.
‘Thank you.’
I was grateful for Myungho Lee’s advice. I was grateful for his warm heart.
“No.”
Lee Myung-ho’s impression, which used to be as cold as winter, became softer.
[Likeability: 60]
Myungho Lee suggested.
“Would you like to have a cup of tea sometime?”
“Yes, let’s have some tea. I will live.”
“That’s Okay. I live there. As an older brother, how can I take advantage of my younger brother?”
I think I met a good person.
∴∴∴
Inside the gym shower room.
Shaaaaa!
A stream of water poured from the shower.
‘Warm.’
Taking a shower after exercising feels quite good.
‘It’s a book…’
Jinseong was a high school graduate. During his school days, he was isolated from his studies. Of course, he hardly ever read books.
To Jinseong, books were like a different world. The only books he read were comics.
‘I have to read it.’
I entered the era of success, and I wanted to live a great life if possible.
I heard there was a book about how to live a good life, so there was no reason not to read it.
‘But which book should you read first?’
I don’t know. I was ignorant.
You have to have read the book at some point to know.
‘I’ll have to ask Myungho.’
I finished taking a shower. She wore the work clothes she had brought with her. He stopped by the bathroom.
[Me: Myungho, hello.]
[Me: I’m sorry. Could you please recommend some books?]
[Me: I have no idea which book I should read.]
I sent a KakaoTalk message.
‘It’s shopping time!’
I beat achievement 62 and received 70 points as a reward.
’50 points are for being good-looking…’
[Appearance: 15.5/100]
’10 points for hair…’
[Hair: +600 hair]
‘The remaining 10 points…’
Jinseong was worried.
Where should I invest?
In terms of physical strength? In your hair? In height? In appearance? On your skin? In peppers? Or vitamins? Or lucky cookie? Or is it a small chance random box?
‘Mmm, good! ‘I’m going to try buying a different item today.’
After much thought, I made a decision.
[You purchased a random lucky note for 10 points.]
A pure white piece of paper the size of ramen soup was created in the air.
A note folded in half.
[Random Lucky Message]
[Content: Luck in the near future, luck not caught, luck missed, etc. Are written randomly.]
My heart was excited. I was looking forward to it.
What kind of luck is written in the note?
I hope it is valuable information.
There were a lot of places to spend money, but living expenses were about to run out.
In fact, the reason I bought the random lucky note was because I wanted to get money-related information.
‘Really?!’
I took a deep breath. I took a deep breath and unfolded the note properly. Golden letters were written on pure white paper.
I checked the contents.
[Kim Gwang-woo was disappointed about Toto. It is said that he failed to win 30 million won because of Tottenham.]
Jinseong widened his eyes.
‘Nice jackpot! A chance to make money!’
300,000 won?
It wasn’t.
3 million won?
It wasn’t.
It was a chance to earn a whopping 30 million won.
‘Big event occurs!’
My breathing became difficult.
My heart was pounding. A bundle of money flashed before my eyes.
‘Thanks to Kim Gwang-woo… Thanks to my brother who is full of malice towards me… Thanks to my brother who always asks me to borrow money… I never thought I could make a big profit.’
∴∴∴
“Okay…”
Jinseong made a groaning sound.
“Why? It’s hard? Or does it hurt somewhere?”
Ji-seong Lee asked worriedly.
“No. It doesn’t hurt.”
I shook my head.
“I’m just exhausted from working out so hard in the morning. It’s overwhelming.”
Lightly jogging and working and achieving achievement 62 and working.
The difference in difficulty was bound to be as great as the difference between heaven and earth.
I was overwhelmed. I was so tired and tired that I started to groan.
‘If possible, I should avoid achieving achievements in the morning.’
No matter how many times I thought about it, a light jog in the morning was just right.
Jogging -〉 Work -〉 I should aim for a routine of achieving achievements.
“Take it easy. Don’t overdo it. If you overdo it and something big happens, you’ll be the only one responsible for it. Anything in excess is not good.”
“Yes, brother.”
I saw Kim Gwang-woo.
[Likeability: 5]
[Inner thoughts: Huh, if I lose today again… I quit Toto…]
[Inner thoughts: No more money to lose… People who want to borrow money… Does not exist. It is difficult to repay the loan owed.]
[Inner thoughts: Jin-seong Yoo’s salary also goes up… I succeeded in dieting… I met a woman… The company’s reputation also improves… Things are going well… I am… Fuck…]
It has been a long time since Kim Gwang-woo’s likeability was disastrously shattered.
It was a dry interior. It was completely desolate and devastated.
‘It’s pitiful.’
I felt a little sad seeing Kim Gwang-woo in ruins.
He couldn’t understand why he was wasting his beautiful life on something like Toto.
“Hyung Gwangwoo.”
“Uh? Why?”
“I’m interested in Toto, so can you tell me?”
“Toto?”
I asked back.
Kim Gwang-woo shook his head.
“Do not do that. “Once you fall into Toto, there is no real answer.”
Ji-seong Lee was shocked and blocked it.
“Hey, what kind of Toto is Toto? Just work hard.”
Jinseong smiled slyly at that.
“I was curious. “I want to try Toto.”
It was 30 million won. 30 million won was floating in front of my eyes.
If I did well, it was an opportunity to earn 30 million won, so I couldn’t miss it.
In the end, he succeeded in persuading Kim Gwang-woo.
“You’re a beginner who doesn’t know anything, so you can go to Totobang for lunch and buy exactly what I bought.”
“Yes, brother.”
Gwangwoo Kim sent me a photo.
[Man United vs Chelsea: Man United wins]
[Tottenham vs Arsenal: Tottenham wins]
[At Madrid vs Barcelona: Draw]
[Liverpool…]
[Purchase amount: 50,000 won]
[Odds: 728.0 times]
[Estimated winning amount: KRW 36,400,000]
‘Awesome.’
It wasn’t worth 30 million won. It was worth 36 million won.
“But, brother, Tottenham? Do you think Tottenham will win against Arsenal? “Wouldn’t it be a draw or a loss?”
“Say what makes sense. Tottenham is home. North London Derby. The Tottenham kids are running with their teeth clenched. “I win no matter what.”
“It’s not… No matter how I look at it, it doesn’t look like I’ll win… If I do well, I think we’ll draw, and if I don’t, I’ll lose…”
Jinseong gave hints several times. Immediately bet on a draw or loss rather than a win for Tottenham.
I would make a lot of money thanks to Kim Gwang-woo, and if possible, I hoped that Kim Gwang-woo would also make a lot of money.
“It’s a sure win for Tottenham.”
Gwangwoo Kim snorted. He didn’t even listen to advice.
There was no way that a beginner’s opinion would be heard in the ears of those who were present.
‘Ugh, I can’t help it.’
I gave up persuasion.
It was lunchtime. After eating, I visited the Toto room.
[Tottenham vs Arsenal – Draw]
[Tottenham vs Arsenal – Loss]
I bought two.
Each paid 50,000 won and 100,000 won.
It was all about throwing away the extra money.
[Estimated winning amount: KRW 72,084,000]
[Estimated winning amount: KRW 45,022,000]
The hit amount has changed.
A draw is 72 million won.
A win for Arsenal costs 45 million won.
‘Win anything.’
I burst out laughing.
∴∴∴
I checked the score.
[Tottenham 1:2 Arsenal]
Arsenal won.
“Oh, that’s annoying. Unfortunately, I didn’t get 30 million won because of Tottenham!”
“…”
“Tottenham, if it weren’t for these chicken and chicken legs guys, if only Tottenham had won, it would have been 3,000!”
“…”
Kim Gwang-woo was furious.
“…”
Jinseong had no choice but to remain silent.
I was indescribably happy and proud.
I couldn’t bear to show it in front of Kim Gwang-woo, who was running wild all over the place.
I shouldn’t have shown it. It wasn’t polite.
I endured it.
[Inner heart: I don’t play Toto. Never do it. See if I ever play Toto again. If you do that, you’re not even a human.]
[Inner thoughts: Let’s stop. Fold.]
Jinseong thought to himself.
‘What if Gwangwoo closes Toto?’
I was willing to help a little.
‘But what if you can’t close Toto?’
I plan to stay away.
There was nothing good about being involved with a gambling addict.
‘What should I do with this money?’
