[158]Double-edged sword 1
“It’s a deal… … .”
“Money and power. Isn’t there frequent commerce in which these two are exchanged? “It’s nothing new.”
Chief Prosecutor Bae Jae-hwan looked at me intently for a while and then smiled slightly and said.
“This prosecutor said so. It’s quite different from an ordinary gold spoon. “I understand why you said that.”
“How are they different?”
“You have a talent for making bold statements sound casual and, moreover, quite believable.”
“Those who share can be shameless. Anyway, it is obvious that people who want to eat the grains from my golden spoon will continue to appear in the future. “Don’t you think so?”
There are many retailers trying to sell the power they have. Aren’t there as many as 2,000 people?
“this… … You also have a knack for making people feel embarrassed. All right. “I will make the right products and come to sell them.”
You are a person who listens well.
Faith, trust, loyalty… . This is a person who knows that mutually satisfying transactions are the driving force for maintaining a relationship for a much longer period of time, rather than something like this.
“I’m in a hurry. Please bring something good within a month. “I will give you a good price.”
“I think Prosecutor Lee Kang-sik is more urgent. “Someone in a hurry will dig a well.”
“Oh, since this is your first transaction, I will pay in advance. Tell him that the Cheongju appointment will be made as if it never happened. I would also like to add that I will work harder and expect good results.”
Manager Bae bowed his head with a happy smile.
“Thank you on behalf of this prosecutor.”
“I have to say hello.”
“yes?”
“One of the five or six people you mentioned could end up in a situation where they might have to take off their clothes. Is there anyone suitable?”
“You’re taking your clothes off?”
Manager Bae asked back in surprise.
“I even thought about what if. All you have to do is need money more than getting tested. Someone who will carry the gun and step forward. Instead, we will hire you as a lawyer from our Miracle legal team.”
To him who couldn’t answer easily, I shook out the last of my worries.
“In the worst case, I don’t mind being disqualified as a lawyer. Since these people studied law anyway, where would their original skills go? “The company needs legal knowledge, not a certificate.”
“You’re thinking about making it big.”
“Like I said, it’s just in case.”
“I’ll check. “If you have a friend who is thinking about starting a lawyer, you are most welcome.”
If you can make as much money in one year as you could in 10 years as a lawyer, there is no reason to refuse.
“Then I will wait. “This is our first transaction, so let’s get it right.”
Manager Bae held the hand I held out to him with all his strength.

“The prosecution was right to take a stab at it. “It’s actually the Financial Supervisory Service.”
“Do you understand what they are doing there?”
“They said they are going after not only our company but also you and me and our personal transactions. “I started tracing back the funds that came in when establishing Korea Miracle.”
Oh Se-hyeon spoke in a snappy tone, but a hint of anxiety was evident in his tone.
“Is there anything worth taking issue with?”
“The amount of money we have moved so far is in the trillions. Even if you just scrape together the crumbs, you’ll get tens of billions of won, right? We call it tax evasion, but in their eyes, it is tax evasion. It’s a matter of legal interpretation. “If the circumstances come out, the National Tax Service will come in.”
“I’m a little nervous.”
“In the worst case, you just have to pay taxes and pay a fine. It’s okay because I have that much money. “Hehe.”
“Don’t you know this isn’t about money?”
Oh Se-hyeon smiled when he saw my stiff expression.
“How far do you plan to go?”
“If you pull out a knife, you have to stab me once. “I have no intention of cutting up a radish and putting it in a sheath.”
It has a more serious expression. The fact that there is no intention to reconcile means that Sunyang Group and Miracle are fighting.
Will he be able to stab the fierce Sunyang? On the contrary, wouldn’t this be the one getting hurt?
It’s an expression that clearly shows this concern.
“Didn’t your uncle tell you that in the worst case scenario, you just have to pay a fine? If you can stop it with money, it works cheaply. “There is no need to back down.”
After confirming my decision, Oh Se-hyeon took a deep breath and retreated.
“Are you ready with your knife?”
“yes. My name is Lee Kang-sik, a prosecutor in the Financial Investigation Department of the Southern District Prosecutors’ Office. “This friend has to go down to Cheongju soon. Can you cancel the personnel order?”
“Is that guy our swordsman?”
“That’s the way it is. “By gathering together the criminals within the Prosecutor’s Office, we will become our strength.”
“That’s no problem. “The Southern District Prosecutors’ Office is not an important position.”
“Then that’s it. “Let’s wait and see how sharp our ronin’s swords are.”
And before a month had passed, our swordsman arrived with a usable weapon.

“Internal transactions and work dumping were not news stories, so we did not deploy manpower. Instead, we focused on tracking overseas companies… … . “This is what came out.”
Oh Se-hyun quickly snatched up the data presented by Prosecutor Lee Kang-sik. Oh Se-hyun, who carefully paid attention to every number, even blew a low whistle. This means that it is proper evidence.
“This is amazing, the Financial Investigation Department of the Southern District Prosecutors’ Office. “I can’t believe you found this!”
“Everyone steals slush funds, and the repercussions are huge. It’s hard to explode anyway… . “I only dug into the replacement, and I was rescued.”
“It must have been difficult without America’s help, right?”
“I was fortunate enough to participate in a Ministry of Justice training program. It’s like a benefit given to Seoul National University graduates, but to match the assortment, even people with no family history like me are included. At that time, there was a third-generation Korean who I became close with. “That friend helped me.”
“What is it? that is?”
When asked while pointing at the documents, Oh Se-hyeon smiled brightly.
“The dollars were stolen. “It’s money taken out of an account linked to the United States.”
“How much?”
Lee Kang-sik spoke with confidence.

“It’s over 20 billion. The problem with this is that there is no data on where the money withdrawn from the United States was spent. “In these cases, it’s usually a gamble.”
“gambling?”
“yes. This can only be done by the owner’s family… . “Does Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki enjoy gambling?”
Lee Kang-sik’s eyes twinkled as if he was trying to get a new clue from me.
It’s gambling… .
I know who it is. Isn’t gambling harder to quit than drugs? The person who gambled endlessly throughout her life was my eldest mother.
Park Hye-young.
I was born into a chaebol family that had no shortages, but I married into a bigger chaebol family.
A woman who makes everything her own with uncontrollable money and has an endless desire to show off.
In some ways, we are enviable human beings who live their lives freely expressing their desires.
Men, gambling and shopping. These are things that cannot be eliminated from her life.
“Compare the timing of withdrawals from overseas accounts and the timing of my eldest mother’s departure.”
“Vice President Jin Young-ki’s wife?”
“That’s right.”
The two people opened their mouths wide.
The fact that the eldest daughter-in-law of a chaebol family indulges in gambling on a large-scale expedition is a subject of moral condemnation, even before considering whether it is illegal.
“Let’s also imitate politics. It will be leaked to the media first, and when public opinion becomes loud, the prosecution will announce it. Then the media dictates again.”
“Is there any media that will accept it? “If you look bad on Sunyang, all the ads will drop?”
Those watching from the outside know the size of power more accurately than insiders. Prosecutor Lee experienced several cases where the media ignored the prosecution’s requests. This was especially true in cases involving conglomerates.
“We just need to fill that much. We also have construction, automobile, department stores, and marts. “That’s enough.”
But he still shook his head. This is because it predicts obvious results.
“That will be the end of it. Just know that summoning a reference is difficult. “It will probably be concluded with a written inquiry and the charges will be acquitted.”
“it’s okay. Even if my eldest mother was truly innocent, no one would believe her. “Just mentioning the fact that the hostess of a wealthy conglomerate gambled away becomes the truth.”
The purpose is to hurt. You will see that I also have a sword in my hand.
“Before that, uncle, please meet uncle. “Try to hint that if we stop at this point, there won’t be any blushing.”
“What if I fold it? “If the Financial Supervisory Service stops investigating, will we stop too?”
“no. We keep going straight. Since it’s my first time, I have to show that I’m fierce. Otherwise, this will happen again.”
I didn’t expect him to even clap his hands in agreement, but Oh Se-hyun’s stern face exceeded my expectations.
“Is there even a need for that? They say they will lower the sword pointed at us… . “If we put down our swords, the prosecutor here can also avoid embarrassment.”
I’m saying this because I don’t know.
Never put away your sword. I’m not the type of person who will stop until I get something. The only difference is whether we explode what we are holding in our hands or not, and we too have to know deep down in our bones that we are holding a knife before we can stop.
“Don’t trust my family. My uncle only knows my father, so he looks at me kindly. They are all ‘cheolmyeon’. “It’s not just my grandfather.”
And we need to clearly tell them what the real weapons we have are.
Demonstrating his power over us may not be the only reason why our uncle puts pressure on us. They are also trying to take away our real weapons.

“Thank you for your time during this difficult time. “Vice President.”
“no. “He is a teacher who teaches with my cute youngest nephew, and you are always welcome.”
“Then just end it by being cute.”
“what do you mean?”
“I’m asking you not to cause a spark to me because Dojun is on guard.”
“Oh, that? haha. This is so… . “You misunderstood.”
“Wow, this is disappointing. “Are you really telling me off?”
“What’s wrong with… . no. I have no feelings towards CEO Oh. “It’s not like I’m wary of Dojun.”
“Then what is it? What if I say neither this nor that?”
“The cruiser took what was mine, so I’m just trying to get it back.”
To Oh Se-hyeon, Jin Young-ki is a person who is difficult to understand.
The first rule of negotiation, which is to hide what you want, is completely ignored.
“automobile? Are you talking about the group stocks owned by Sunyang Motors?”
Looking at Jinyoung-gi smiling and nodding his head, Jin Do-jun’s words came to mind.
– Swing out our true sword.
Oh Se-hyeon waited for the right moment to swing the sword.
“Why is that Vice President? “It was purchased legally from Chairman Jin.”
“The owner changed for a while. No, it would be more accurate to say that it was left to chaos. Why… Didn’t you call the IMF a tribulation? “Foreign exchange chaos.”
Jin Do-jun’s words came to mind. These people are ‘iron-faced’. How can you say something so absurd so easily?
“You will pay the storage fee well, so hand it over. If necessary, you can classify it as the current generation. “It won’t be a loss-making business.”
“What if I refuse?”
“CEO Oh is slow-thinking for someone who deals with money. Even if you hold it, you can’t do anything about Sunyang Group. “Rather than hold onto a stock that only gives him headaches, he trades it for something he needs.”
“Can we take this as a headache to mean that we will move public power as we are now?”
“The Southern District Prosecutors’ Office and the Financial Supervisory Service are noble people. “Aren’t there going to be even worse guys attacking me?”
“It’s even worse… … . “It must be a union between the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office’s Central Investigation Department and the National Tax Service.”
“one more. “Intensive media saturation.”
Looking at the triumphant Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki, Oh Se-hyun slowly opened his mouth with an expressionless face.
“oh my. “Be scared.”
