Chapter 71

Then he began to express his thoughts on the subject of the two’s arguments. 

“Alright, about your argument, I’ll tell you what I think.” 

As if standing in front of a judge, Andrew and Joshua gulped, as they waited fro Rockefeller to voice his opinion, 

“You both got it right, and you both got it wrong.” 

They, who had thought Rockefeller would side with one of them, heard the unexpected answer, the two younger brothers looked a little flustered. 

“Rockefeller hyung, what do you mean?” 

“Both of us got it right and wrong? Doesn’t that mean neither one of this got it right?” 

“It could meant that.” Rockefeller began, 

“In cases like these, it’s really important to build up and maintain trust, like Andrew, especially if want to deal with a lot money later on.” 

Andrew was happy to here that while Joshua became sullen, 

“Then, like Andrew hyung said, do we have to be honest and keep their trust?” 

“No, you don’t have to be too honest. Maintain their trust, but you don’t have to be honest.” 

When they heard that, their expressions changed again, as Rockefeller continued to explain, 

“If you’re absolutely honest all the time, there’s no way you can make a lot of money. But you also can’t make money if you lose trust. So you maintain trust, but don’t have to be honest. Do you understand?”

The two younger brothers looked completely lost at his strange words. 

“Rockefeller hyung, it’s too hard, I don’t get what that means?” 

“Same for me, I don’t get what you mean by maintaining trust and not being honest at the same time?” 

“At the end of the day, making money is a result of taking other people’s money. Then, how can you take other people’s money? By being honest and good? If you’re too good, people will never be willing to pay, since they’re not idiots. So like Joshua said, you won’t be able to make money that way. To do so, would be to only deal with fools.”

Andrew became deflated at those words and this time, it was Joshua’s spirits that were lifted. 

“Yeah! People aren’t fools! If you act too good, you can’t make money, just like Rockefeller hyung said!” 

“But, just because you don’t have to be honest, doesn’t mean you can cheat people like that Joshua.” 

Once again, Joshua’s sprits fell,

“Joshua, from what I heard earlier, you tried to cheat too directly. It’s never a good thing to try and deceive others like that. It’s not different from stealing from them.” 

“Then… what should I do?” 

Rocekeller smiled slightly at Rockefeller’s question, 

“Hm, what should you do? Cheat as much as you can, in a legitimate way, that wouldn’t break their trust.” 

The reason for doing that?

It was simple. 

“That way, you’ll be able to make a lot of money.” 

Virtuous wickedness. 

The two younger brothers tried to understand those unclear words, while Rockefeller didn’t push them to understand any faster than they could.

“I don’t get it.” 

“Me too…” 

“What I said might be a little difficult for you to understand straight away, but you have a lot of time left to think about it. From now on, engrave what hyung has said in your heart and think about it carefully. Then you might end up seeing another path, different from the obvious path in front of you, that might make you a lot more money.” 

As the conversation came to an end, as if to emphasise the point of this, he added, 

“Even if you can’t think of a way to deceive them, never, ever betray their trust. Even if you make less money, breaking their trust means you’ll eventually lose everything. So keep that in mind and think about it again. I’m sure you’ll come up with a good plan.”
