Chapter 154

Putting a Rice Spoon (1)

Yu Jong-tae put the ear tightly on the wall of the next room where the central intelligence director and Secretary Kim were and held breath.

“The central intelligence director says hope the Young Master personally steps forward and processes certainly.”

The reason I deliberately demanded the room next to Cheongwongak.

Here existed a room with a device to plant secretly listening ears.

Just like this room.

Yu Jong-tae whispered small in my ear.

“What would the intention be?”

“Intending to properly test Taeseong’s ability in this opportunity.”

One more.

“Also the meaning of securing joint responsibility to Taeseong not a mere central intelligence agent.”

The central intelligence director said cutting sharply not at ease with only Uncle Cheol-gu.

Even though already said Uncle Cheol-gu grasped Kim Hyeong-won’s identity.

“The central intelligence agents dispatched to the US hung the neck for 2 years yet couldn’t catch the tail Uncle Cheol-gu caught. Honestly an absurd and out of the blue matter.”

Even I can’t believe, how much more the central intelligence director?

‘But that real! The note Uncle Cheol-gu wrote the address golden light flashed?’

No method to explain this what?

The note put on the drinking table over there only faintly silver light circles, but the note Uncle Cheol-gu gave was different.

‘Seems seeing a note shining as much as the U-gwang Construction bribe ledger and the affiliate acquisition memorandum grandfather wrote after a really long time.’

How dazzlingly the golden light flashed.

To the extent saliva automatically going down blinded by bean powder not even fallen yet.

‘Why on earth? What Kim Hyeong-won that the note golden light?’

This honestly I also not well understanding.

What the central intelligence director promised in exchange for catching Kim Hyeong-won is only helping three matters.

A matter the golden light flashing so noisily to that level?

‘No matter how many times flicking the abacus beads again the calculation not matching. The note shining ecstatically more than expected. Why?’

So just puzzling.

“Secretary Kim also can’t answer easily. Certainly the matter turning a bit awkwardly.”

Yu Jong-tae whispered as if worried.

“Actually a matter with too high difficulty. That Kim Hyeong-won.”

“That not a particular problem.”

Honestly speaking such a thing nothing can’t do.

“The central intelligence director’s goal looks very tricky at a glance but simple if knowing.”

Returning former central intelligence director Kim Hyeong-won and covering Koreagate.

“The reason hard to achieve this until now because Kim Hyeong-won’s whereabouts tightly hidden under the US government’s protection.”

“But headbutt Lieutenant Colonel already found Kim Hyeong-won’s residence.”

“Just raiding Kim Hyeong-won and forcibly returning also mission clear.”

“······Simple?”

Yu Jong-tae smiled with a dazed expression.

“If the president who boiled the inside quite because of Kim Hyeong-won a matter of raising both hands and greatly welcoming?”

“The central intelligence director will be able to prove loyalty.”

“Wow.”

“An opportunity to buy the president’s favor, and solidify trust thickly, so for the central intelligence director worthy of hanging the promise of actively pushing Taeseong three times.”

Because hard to buy the expectation and favor of this country’s highest commander.

Calculating so even the three promises cheap!

“But seems have to refuse this proposal.”

“No, why?”

Being dragged by others’ meaning not my style.

“The deadline the central intelligence director presented to Uncle Cheol-gu is 1 year. The sound of flying to the US and hanging only on that work for at least 1 year.”

“Because of time limit so? If that dragging a lot of Taeseong Group security guards······.”

“Such not even a matter to consider.”

I shook the head small.

“If manpower insufficient just supply locally enough.”

Whether Korea or US people living all the same.

Searching slums or gangs like digging the back alleys and selecting suitable guys and using end.

“If establishing large merit in this opportunity Taeseong’s future bright. Worried whether can’t meet the expectation so?”

“Who worried can’t establish merit? Such not even enters the worry category.”

“No, then why? A good opportunity regrettable to refuse?”

“Elementary school is compulsory education!”

“······.”

Yu Jong-tae lost words for a moment.

Whether so or not.

I nervously swept the head.

“If an eight-year-old child says will go to the US alone for 1 year before even entering school?”

“······Eh?”

“What parents would leave and see considering so?”

“Eee······?”

“If I were only eighteen!”

Yu Jong-tae lamented low.

“Wow, a reason couldn’t even imagine!”

Even so can’t push the work to our father as the central intelligence director misunderstands!

‘Father is taking charge of the Seoul subway line 2 construction internally decided for 5 years and doing full power. Can’t bother a busy person with only such a matter.’

Aigu, can’t help!

“Instead thinking of meeting the central intelligence director’s expectation in a bit different way.”

“Different way?”

“Indeed if only the result good all matters jackpot?”

I winked one eye.

“Convey will refreshingly solve the two maneuvers the central intelligence director failed.”

After the president entrusted Koreagate to the central intelligence director, he set two plans.

Persuading Kim Hyeong-won and recovering the fund line.

“Quite confident in diverting and stripping the hidden property in the middle.”

This have to see as my specialty field.

Can do better having done several times!

‘Why was I called Sillim-dong ant hell.’

The reason I who had nothing but a young body became one of the five big shots gripping the Republic of Korea’s shady side in a short time.

“Uhuhoot!”

“Wow, the laugh just now extremely mean!”

Digging a trap then pulling the target in and stripping thoroughly the easiest in the world!

* * *

Secretary Kim who went out saying will make one phone and come returned.

The central intelligence director who quietly tilted ears to Secretary Kim’s words finally pulled up one mouth corner.

“Good.”

The central intelligence director stroked the chin.

“If a matter Taeseong’s brain boasted so can’t not expect.”

“Will promise to do best so as to meet the expectation.”

“A matter that even flying and crawling central intelligence agents hung with all heart and power for 2 years yet not worked.”

“If only the result good jackpot?”

“Returning Kim Hyeong-won also difficult, but recovering the hidden property the guy is hiding would be a more difficult matter.”

“The 1 year proposed. Will see the match within that.”

“Good.”

The central intelligence director nodded readily.

“If only putting Kim Hyeong-won in my hand within 1 year. Willing to extend the deadline about 5 years for the fund line catching matter.”

“Then better than anything. Just entrust.”

“Good.”

Already the good sound came out three times from the central intelligence director’s mouth.

As much as evaluated cautious in everything the central intelligence director famous as a man who doesn’t easily give positive confirmation.

“How far should I support?”

“All command and investigation rights of the central intelligence agents and lobbyists dispatched to the US.”

“Will it work with that?”

“If U-gwang who participated in the lobby actively cooperates better.”

“Good.”

Already the fourth good sound came out.

“Will convey smartly to U-gwang’s Chairman Kim.”

The central intelligence director laughed heartily.

“If not actively cooperating will dry the already shrunk U-gwang tightly like a mummy.”

Would become a sharp threat.

“Will prepare of course tax investigation and seizure search even Seobinggo water torture room and electric chair.”

The central intelligence director wiped the hands with a wet towel.

“Will also send an official document to the US embassy. If putting one phone separately to the LA governor enough?”

“Thank you.”

“Pray for good luck.”

The central intelligence director stood up with a whoosh from the silk cushion.

Then left without even looking back.

Secretary Kim and Uncle Cheol-gu followed up to the veranda and bent the waist 90 degrees and saw off the central intelligence director.

* * *

Tak.

‘Hey, guardian deity.’

[Going! Going to the next room! Don’t nag a bit!]

‘Who would know watching drama with the television in the lobby?’

[Ahem!]

The underworld messenger scratched the back of the head and disappeared to the next room.

This time the left room where President Shim and U-gwang’s Kim Dae-sik were facing.

A twin room arranged exactly opposite to where the central intelligence director and Secretary Kim were.

Knock knock knock.

“Please enter.”

President Shim’s voice.

Secretary Kim conveyed the note scribbled with the Montblanc fountain pen earlier to President Shim and went out.

President Shim silently read Secretary Kim’s note and smiled faintly.

On the other hand Kim Dae-sik who was reading the note President Shim handed crumpled what held with a whoosh.

“Ha!”

That was the threat note I sent.

“I think I conveyed the most friendly alliance proposal as much as possible though.”

U-gwang’s Kim Dae-sik spread the palm held wide and showed.

“U-gwang put out as much as 7% of the holding company shares. With that level not sufficient as sincerity display?”

The three notes that were crumpled with a whoosh rolled crumpled roundly.

“Is this Taeseong’s answer? Knew His Excellency the president favors Taeseong but··· this too much no matter how doing!”

U-gwang’s Kim Dae-sik reddened and bluish and panted.

Whether so or not.

President Shim lifted the ceramic alcohol pot and filled own cup trickle.

“Was Taeseong’s favor?”

“Favor? Where looking this favor?”

U-gwang’s Kim Dae-sik was indignant.

“Koreagate is our U-gwang’s share. Not enough Taeseong declared will put a rice spoon there······!”

“Why. Unfair? Then should have cleaned up well on the U-gwang line long ago. Not splashing shit water even to our Taeseong.”

“What shit water. The words too severe!”

“Not wrong words either.”

President Shim sipped the alcohol cup.

President Shim with deep dark circles, skin roughened crumpled the brows with a whoosh as alcohol entered.

“Erai!”

President Shim took out the bad breath remover from the bosom and sprayed chik chik while frowning tightly.

“Somehow the liver rotten because of overwork certain.” muttering small was a bonus.

The more so U-gwang’s Kim Dae-sik breathed roughly even more.

“If ability not enough at least provide money?”

U-gwang’s Kim Dae-sik threw the note bundle that would have 1 written on the surface, but already crumpled a lot hard to recognize the number to President Shim.

“Grateful just letting put a rice spoon on Koreagate?”

Tak.

U-gwang’s Kim Dae-sik threw the note bundle that had 2 written on the surface again.

The note bundle hit President Shim’s face and fell to the floor.

“That the value of putting out U-gwang Group holding company shares 7%? This damn!”

Even threw the last note with 3 written on the surface at President Shim’s face.

Yet U-gwang’s Kim Dae-sik couldn’t even the rough breathing.

“Even shameless there is a limit! How much money and effort U-gwang endured because of Koreagate until now!”

“Does Taeseong have to know even that?”

President Shim mercilessly cut Kim Dae-sik’s words.

“Asked whether a matter His Excellency the president, the central intelligence director have to know?”

“President Shim!”

“We have no interest in how much large damage U-gwang saw because of Koreagate. Also not our business why U-gwang Steel was only seeing deficit for the past 4 years.”

“How that······!”

U-gwang’s Kim Dae-sik hardened the expression.

The real reason U-gwang Steel recorded as seeing enormous deficit was precisely because of Koreagate.

Also the hidden reason U-gwang succeeded until now receiving the president’s protection.

President Shim said indifferently.

“If really dislike just withdraw. Not stopping up to that.”

President Shim snorted.

“We don’t care even without U-gwang’s cooperation. Then let’s end the talk with this matter’s merit all Taeseong eating.”

“Wait!”

U-gwang’s Kim Dae-sik raised a hand.

“Then U-gwang’s holding company shares 7%?”

“Heard not even putting a rice spoon on Koreagate, no thought of eating others’ company shares for free. That person said convey like this.”

Tak.

President Shim put the note received from Secretary Kim on the drinking table.

“Heard the central intelligence director hopes U-gwang’s active cooperation to close Koreagate.”

“Active cooperation? The central intelligence director?”

“For reference heard even the former inspection bureau director U-gwang was watching the back and subordinate central intelligence agents of course even the central intelligence 1st deputy director Seobinggo water torture room confirmed.”

“What?”

“If can’t believe confirm.”

President Shim smiled gently.

On the other hand Kim Dae-sik’s complexion began to pale.

“Soon a phone will go from the central intelligence. Heard the central intelligence director if U-gwang not actively cooperating will dry the already shrunk U-gwang tightly like a mummy.”

“The central intelligence director?”

“Heard will prepare of course tax investigation and seizure search even Seobinggo water torture room and electric chair. Can Chairman Kim handle?”

“Ho, how such······!”

“With this level became the value of U-gwang Group holding company shares 7%?”

The complexion of U-gwang’s Kim Dae-sik that paled began to die black right away.
