The Peninsula chaebol started by rescuing Samsung's little princess.

Lee Ho-young established a new company called "Mercury Investments," and Lee Boo-jin purchased 25% of the company's shares for 150 billion won.

If you only look at the price, Lee Boo-jin is undoubtedly at a disadvantage, since it means that this shell investment company has a market value of up to 600 billion won.

But things shouldn't be judged by appearances alone; this company will soon own 20% of Mars Technologies.

At the current rate of development, this investment company's market value will far exceed 600 billion in just a few years.

From a certain perspective, Li Haorong is essentially giving money to Li Fuzhen!

Of course, Li Haorong also benefited from Li Yinxin's connections; after all, many people wanted to give gifts but didn't have the means!

After signing the contract, Lee Boo-jin immediately saw the guest off without exchanging a single unnecessary word with Lee Ho-young.

At this time, she should not receive guests.

If her face hadn't been swollen, she probably would have gone to work at the Shilla Hotel today, instead of letting Li Haorong come to her house.

The reason why Lee Boo-jin figured this out so quickly was mainly because of what happened last night.

Although she did not choose to divorce Im Woo-jae, she had lost most of her will to marry.

Despite her seemingly decisive and efficient businesswoman persona, Lee Boo-jin is actually a traditional woman at heart who longs for a family.

This is exactly the opposite of Lin Shiling!

Now that her dream of family life has been shattered, Lee Boo-jin has focused her energy on her career. The Shilla Hotel alone is not enough to satisfy Lee Boo-jin's ambition.

And Li Haorong just happened to give her an opportunity!

"Take care, Fu-jin!"

Throughout the signing process, Li Haorong remained completely professional, only offering this word of concern just before leaving.

Although Lee Boo-jin's expression remained unchanged, her heart was still warmed.

After leaving the conference room, Li Haorong noticed that Lin Xiangmin was still standing outside the door.

"Sangmin, what are you doing here?"

Faced with Li Yinxin's question, Lin Xiangmin did not answer, but instead looked at Li Haorong:

"I heard you came to see Sister Fu Zhen for investment purposes?"

"yes!"

Li Haorong wasn't surprised that Lin Xiangmin knew about this, but he was surprised that this young woman was concerned about it.

"So...can I invest?"

When Lim Sang-min asked this question, there was a hint of longing in his eyes.

"You want to invest?"

Li Haorong's first reaction was to find it funny, but he quickly remembered Lin Xiangmin's identity and could no longer laugh.

So he probed:

Are you investing on behalf of the Elephant Group, or in your personal capacity?

"Of course it's me personally!"

If we're talking about the strength of conglomerates, then Samsung is definitely stronger than Elephant!

But when it comes to Li Yinxin and Lin Xiangmin, Li Yinxin is only considered poor compared to Lin Xiangmin!

Because Lim Se-ryung married Lee Jae-yong, Lim Sang-min was groomed by Lim Chang-wook to be the successor of the Daesang Group.

Speaking of which, Lin Changxu is somewhat abnormal among the Peninsula conglomerates!

He not only raised his two daughters well, but also did not favor sons over daughters, and was even willing to groom his daughters to be his successors.

This kind of thing, which is commonplace in China, is absolutely unusual on the Korean Peninsula.

As the heiress of Daesang Group, one of the top ten conglomerates in the peninsula, Lim Sang-min already has more money than she can handle, even though she doesn't have a job yet.

Having figured these things out, Li Haorong's heart immediately burned with excitement.

He pretended to be embarrassed:

"Well, that's a bit difficult!"

"Huh? Why?"

Upon hearing Li Haorong's refusal, Lin Xiangmin's eyes widened in surprise; she hadn't expected him to refuse.

"Currently, Mars Technology doesn't have many shares to distribute. Any more might shake my control over the company. Even Sister Fu Zhen only invested in my investment company!"

Although Li Haorong's words contained some hidden information, they were not a single lie.

But to Lin Xiangmin, it seemed that Li Haorong was in a real predicament.

However, she also sensed a business opportunity in his words and immediately asked, "What is an investment company?"

What Lin Xiangmin thought was a business opportunity was actually just a pretext deliberately given by Li Haorong.

He had been waiting for Lim Sang-min to ask that question!

Lim Sang-min is not stupid; on the contrary, she is very smart.

In the original timeline, the Elephant Group suffered a severe setback during the 08 financial crisis. It was she and her sister who inherited the Elephant Group and managed it to thrive, demonstrating their capabilities.

Unfortunately, she is still in school and has not yet taken over the family business. Facing the two-time reincarnation fox, Li Haorong, she is naturally no match for him and is easily manipulated by him.

"Oh, this is a newly established company of mine, mainly used for holding companies. Besides Mars Technology, it will also invest in some other companies in the future!"

Li Haorong said a few simple words, but Lin Xiangmin understood immediately. She replied, "Then I'm willing to invest in this!"

She might not believe Lee Ho-young, but she definitely believed Lee Boo-jin.

She refused to believe that Li Haorong would dare to swindle even Fu Zhen's money!

"Well, it's not up to me to decide; you also need the approval of our major shareholder, Sister Fuzhen!"

Li Haorong had been waiting for her to say those words!

"You just wait!"

Without wasting any words, Lim Sang-min immediately went into the room to beg Lee Boo-jin.

"Haorong, do you really want Lin Xiangmin to invest?"

Throughout the entire process, Li Yinxin didn't say a word until Lin Xiangmin left, at which point she finally asked a question.

"Of course! She's your best friend and she's rich, so I feel completely at ease having her as a shareholder!"

There was one more thing Li Haorong didn't mention: Lin Xiangmin's identity was very special.

She is both the heiress of the Daesang Group and Lee Jae-yong's sister-in-law, which allows for many interpretations from the outside world.

As for concerns about whether Elephant Group would interfere with Mars Technology, Li Haorong was not worried at all.

Daesang Group is the number one food company in the peninsula, and its biggest connection with the internet is probably its official website.

Li Haorong had no worries about a company that didn't understand the internet but had plenty of money.

Moreover, this was probably just a whim of Lin Xiangmin's.

She keenly sensed the business opportunity and decided to give it a try.

"As long as it doesn't affect you or the company, it's fine!"

Hearing that Li Haorong agreed, Li Yinxin felt relieved.

Although Lim Sang-min is her best friend, in her heart, Lee Ho-young is still the most important person.

Just as Lee Ho-young was waiting, the door suddenly opened, and Lee Kun-hee and Lee Jae-yong walked in together.

The two were slightly taken aback when they saw Li Haorong.

But neither of them greeted Li Haorong, pretending not to see him, and left directly.

Just as Li Haorong was wondering if he was really Liuwa, a secretary-like person walked over and said to Li Haorong:

"Mr. Li, the chairman wants to see you alone in his study!"

Lee Kun-hee wants to see him?

Although Li Haorong had long guessed that this day would come, he was actually a little nervous when it actually arrived.

"Well... I'll go with you!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yinxin immediately thought of what Li Haorong had told her in bed last night, and her heart tightened with anxiety.

"I'm sorry, Miss, the president only wants to see Mr. Li!"

The secretary rejected Li Yinxin.

"But……"

Li Yinxin was about to say something when Li Haorong grabbed her hand.

"Don't worry, I'll go by myself!"

"Are you sure you can do it?"

"Of course, it's not like I haven't met your dad before!"

Li Haorong chuckled as he comforted Li Yinxin, then whispered in her ear, "Go do me a favor. Go find your older brother later and tell him... got it?"

Lee Yoon-hyung nodded heavily, and then Lee Ho-young followed the secretary toward Lee Kun-hee's study.
