How to Become a Black Market Tycoon

“Your brother?”

“Yes.”

What are your parents doing?

A younger brother who needs care from his older brother, not his parents.

Isn’t the situation obvious?

“Are you very uncomfortable?”

“···Yes. I can’t use my lower body, so I use a wheelchair.”

I thought for a while and said.

“It’s a bit hard to say with my own mouth, but the environment here isn’t very good, is it? Wouldn’t your brother be rather uncomfortable?”

Then Jaewoon Lee said in an urgent voice.

“that. It’s not like that. The house where my brother is now is not that good.”

It’s not that Lee Jae-woon’s request is difficult.

There are a lot of container houses out there, but what makes it so difficult to empty one of them?

I just said it because I sincerely thought it would be uncomfortable for my younger brother, but Lee Jae-woon seemed to have taken it with a different intention.

“I will do my best not to interfere with work. Really. My younger brother often does it alone.”

It’s a job, so I’m not really worried about it because it’s a very sincere style.

“I will work harder. Please.”

Seeing Lee Jae-woon like that, the staff said with a sad expression.

“tt. It’s not okay.”

“It’s like catching straw.”

Feeling like catching even straw?

What kind of straw is living with my younger brother… Ah.

I understand why Jae-Woon Lee persuades him like that.

“Are you doing this because you think you might wake up?”

When awakened, he becomes a superhuman that transcends human limits.

Then the hope that the crippled lower part of the body might be healed.

“···Yes.”

Besides, rumors are spreading that there is a high probability of awakening if you are still near the dungeon.

That’s why Jaewoon Lee was trying to bring his younger brother here.

I pondered for a moment and then smiled.

“Please. What a difficult request. Can I empty a container?”

In such a case, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to erase the debt.

Then Jae-Woon Lee said with a bright smile.

“I. Are you really?”

“Did you say that you were just refusing bonuses to ask for such a favor?”

I handed the envelope to Jae-Woon Lee and said.

“ruler. My younger brother is my younger brother, and I should receive what I receive.”

When writing, be sure to write it down to be remembered.

It’s not enough to do a favor, so when I handed over the bonus as it is, Jae-Woon Lee bowed his head and said.

“Thank you very much! thank you!”

“okay. I wish you all the best in the future.”

I looked at the other staff and said.

“If you have a similar request, please let me know.”

Then, the employees who were noticing turned on the lights in their eyes and started shouting.

“I! I am a sick old woman!!”

“My husband has a bad leg right now, please!”

What. If employees and their families come and live together, the atmosphere of the village will be even better and it will not be bad.

I said with a smile.

“now. Speak slowly, one by one!”

Even if all other shops are left to the staff, the reason why I deal directly with the dungeon goods with the hunters is because the transaction amount is large, but above all else, it was to check the hunters with my own eyes.

In order to find the famous hunters in the previous life early, build friendships, and then use them to eat them.

“Greetings, Jaejin. You are our boss.”

Then, Jae-Woon Lee’s younger brother, Jae-Jin Lee, who was sitting in a wheelchair, lowered his head slightly with an expressionless face and said,

“···hello.”

himself was there

If it’s a hunter who uses Dangjin dungeon anyway, I have no choice but to use the shop.

But this kind of meeting was really unexpected.

“Is this… Jaejin Lee?”

“Yes.”

Just a small favor to the staff.

It was no more than that, but an unexpected giant was caught.

Jaejin Lee.

A few years later, he appeared like a comet and was a super rookie who instantly caught the attention of all guilds with his outstanding skills.

At first, I thought maybe I was mistaken, but the name and appearance of Lee Jae-jin are certain.

“ah···”

The promising hunter I’ve always been looking for appears.

It’s also the younger brother of an employee I trust relatively.

Isn’t it something to welcome with open arms?

Because Jae-Jin Lee and I already have a link called Jae-Woon Lee.

However, there was only one reason why I kept looking at Lee Jae-jin with a confused expression.

“That… uh. no.”

It was because Lee Jae-jin had a big problem in character apart from his skills.

Psychopath Jaejin Lee.

He was crazy enough that there were rumors that he killed the hunters in the dungeon in hundreds of cases of known violence.

Jaejin Lee’s notoriety was so famous that all the guilds who were fascinated by Jaejin Lee’s skills gave up by waving their hands together.

However, his skills were genuine, so he quickly grew up to be one of the top hunters in Korea, but one day, Jae-Jin Lee suddenly disappeared without a word.

Rumors abounded, from rumors of being attacked by monsters in the dungeon to fighting with a large guild and being killed while fighting alone in the dungeon.

Personally, I think it’s probably the latter… Anyway, Jaejin Lee suddenly appeared in front of me.

Also in a wheelchair.

‘Were you originally crippled?’

As it is known mainly for notoriety, I heard a lot of strange rumors, but I wonder if Lee Jae-jin had a past like this.

As I continued to ponder like that, Jaewoon Lee looked at me and said.

“I. president? What are you doing?”

“uh? oh no. Anyway, did you say Jaejin?”

I reached out to Jaejin Lee and said.

“Nice to meet you. This is Jeong In-soo.”

Then Jaejin Lee looked at my hand and reached out and grabbed my hand.

“···Nice to meet you.”

Jaejin Lee is so obedient.

Fresh and amazing

“Then, boss. I’ll just go.”

“Yes. Please. I will guide you around the facilities to my younger brother.”

“Yes.”

So Jae-Woon Lee pulled out Jae-Jin Lee’s wheelchair.

I muttered as I looked at the backs of those two brothers.

“How about this?”

skill is certain.

If he appeared as a shop customer, he would have tried to build friendships by any means.

But no matter how good you are, what do you do?

I can’t control it.

I muttered while constantly squinting at the container house I had assigned to Jae-Woon Lee and Jae-Jin Lee.

“Still, it sounds like you’re listening to what you’re saying.”

Jae-Jin Lee follows Jae-Woon Lee’s words without saying a word.

But no matter how much I think about it, Jaejin Lee did not have a brother in his previous life.

If it were Lee Jae-woon’s personality that I’ve seen for a while, I don’t think I would have seen Lee Jae-jin’s runaway like that.

“…what happened in the middle?”

A younger brother who loses his older brother in an accident and runs away.

There are quite a few pictures, but even so, the actions Jaejin Lee did in his previous life are too much.

Just passing by, he broke his arm because he didn’t like it, and he got drunk and made a fuss.

No matter how much I thought about it, Jaejin Lee was just a madman.

I pondered for a moment and said.

“Would you like to stab me first?”

Originally, people say that it is not necessary to rewrite, but it is too much of a waste to just give up.

“okay. Let’s see for a moment.”

“…I’m a little nervous.”

Lee Jae-jin, who is not yet awake, can’t control his body or mind alone, but he’s a little nervous because his memories of his previous life are so strong.

I took a deep breath and then knocked on the door of the container house.

“Are you there?”

Then Jaejin Lee’s voice comes from the container house.

“who are you.”

“I’m Jeong In-soo.”

Then Jaejin Lee, who was silent for a while, said.

“My brother is away from work.”

“I know.”

In order to understand Jae-Jin Lee’s exact disposition, I purposely visited Jae-Woon Lee using the time he went to work.

“I’m not here today to have a conversation with Jae-Jin, not Jae-Woon.”

“········”

Then Jaejin Lee, who had been silent for a while, said.

“It’s open, so come in.”

“thank you.”

When I opened the door, I saw Jaejin Lee sitting quietly in the corner of a small one-room-sized room.

Jaejin Lee looking up at me with an expressionless face.

“Would you like some coffee?”

I shook my head and said.

“it’s okay. Did you come here empty-handed?”

I took a seat in front of Jaejin Lee and took out a can of coffee and sweets from the envelope I brought.

“Do you have coffee?”

“Yes.”

“Then I’ll open it…”

Then, suddenly, Jaejin Lee stretched out his hand and said.

“You can do it alone.”

Jaejin Lee emphasizes that he can do it himself.

In his actions, I have a strong feeling that he is deeply hurt by the fact that he is different from others.

“Yes? haha.”

I thought as I handed the canned coffee to Jaejin Lee.

‘It won’t be easy.’

From then on, the conversation was almost one-way.

“Are there any inconveniences in your life?”

“Yes.”

“haha. However, if there are any inconveniences, please do not hesitate to tell me.”

“it’s okay.”

Jaejin Lee, who always answers with a short answer.

However, I was able to understand quite a lot about Lee Jae-jin from such a short answer type.

‘It’s hostile.’

The desire to avoid this place at any moment is felt in his actions and responses.

And the hostility you can feel in the eyes you meet occasionally.

‘And they are united with a sense of victimization.’

Perhaps the reason Jaejin Lee lets me in and keeps putting up with the position he hates is because I am the boss who employs his older brother.

Because I don’t want to hurt my brother.

In other words, it means that I am a very uncomfortable person to Jae-Jin Lee and cannot be taken lightly, but despite this, sometimes malicious replies pop out from Jae-Jin Lee’s answer.

“Isn’t it inconvenient to cross the threshold by any chance?”

As soon as he said anything related to the bridge, Jaejin Lee, who was speaking in a short-answer style, slightly distorted his expression.

“…I know I’m doing well. Don’t worry about it.”

“ah. Yes.”

It wasn’t a long conversation, but this convinced me.

This Jae-Jin Lee is the same Jae-Jin Lee from a previous life.

A man who was hostile to people and united with a sense of victimization, but suddenly awakened and became a hunter.

Wouldn’t the reward mentality be triggered the moment you realized that your body is superior to others?

That’s why it came out even more violent and unassuming.

Violence would have been the easiest and quickest way to confirm that you are superior to others.

In other words, Jaejin Lee’s violence had already been completed at this point.

But at the same time, there is hope.

‘I can’t move as much as my brother.’

Unlike Lee Jae-jin in his previous life, who ran wild without a break, Jae-jin Lee now is desperately abstaining from anything related to his older brother.

‘If I make Jae-Woon Lee completely my person… then I can make Jae-Jin Lee my person too.

But this alone is not enough.

Jae-jin Lee now lacks social skills and is only united with anger against society.

Here, like in his previous life, what happens to Jae-Woon Lee and his brakes break?

If that happens again, version 2 of Jaejin Lee from his previous life was only completed.

‘At least … I need to make it so that I don’t have any hostility towards me.’

To Jae-Jin Lee now, everyone except Jae-Woon Lee is just an enemy.

But how?

A person with such a sense of harm tends to distort the intention even if they approach it with good intentions.

Have hope.

It will be fine in the future.

If you work hard, you will be rewarded.

This kind of sound doesn’t work for someone like Jaejin Lee.

Rather, I just live with resentment.

Also, Jae-Jin Lee is a person who has already accumulated anger against society for over 20 years.

Awakening is just the starting point that made it possible to express that anger.

Of course, it could all be my mistake.

Jaejin Lee now is simply a young man with few words, and the runaway like in his previous life may have changed due to his brother’s accident or such external influences.

But only those who have lacked can recognize the needy.

I could read the hatred of the world in Jaejin Lee’s voice and expression.

Such a person does not change easily.

I pondered for a moment, then got up and said.

“The conversation was enjoyable. Next time we have a chance, we will talk.”

“Go in.”

I came out and looked back at the container house and said quietly.

“There is still time.”

A few years later, Jaejin Lee started working in earnest.

So, observe slowly and understand Jaejin Lee more accurately.

And at the same time.

I said with a smile.

“It makes Jae-Woon Lee a perfect person.”
