NIS Agent Tears the Japanese Empire Episode 243

Beginning of Spring (5)

“Ughhh.”

Our great lord Daegal smiled sinisterly as he looked at the diagram that was gradually ascending, drawing a beautiful upward direction.

-Ouch!

“Don’t laugh like that, you’re unlucky.”

“Hehe, sorry.”

Even though Daegal was suddenly hit on the back of the head, he still acted as if he had received some kind of reward.

“It’s funny for no reason.”

“lol.”

For Daegal Daegam, being hit by this teacher is not a bad thing, but it is because he thinks that this teacher trusts him that much.

If the person involved had heard this, he would have hit the back of the head again, saying, “What nonsense are you talking about?” But at least that’s what the great lord thought.

This also has its own basis.

‘This teacher could have done this to that guy Song Byeong-jun, but why did he choose me?’

‘And if I bothered you even a little bit, you would kill me right away, cut my body into small pieces, and throw it on the floor of Gyeongseong.’

But this teacher didn’t necessarily do that.

This teacher is the kind of person who would listen to you if you beat him up a little, threaten him, and put money in his pocket, but I just killed him because it was more troublesome to find a replacement.

Of course, Daegal, who had never heard such a story, was like everyone else.

I just interpret it as I see fit.

‘This teacher also recognized my worth… …!’

Even Daegal Daegam had the awareness that he had sold out the country.

That is why he thought that if Joseon became independent during his lifetime, he too would meet a terrible end.

Well, in the past, there was no problem because he had no idea that Joseon would become independent before he died, but now the story is a bit different.

Mr. Lee from Gyeongseong.

From the moment this unidentified person appeared, a sense of anxiety began to grow in his head.

As Master Lee of Gyeongseong ran wild here and there, making a fool of the Japanese Empire, and his other comrades died one by one or disappeared from sight, the thought of “could it be?” naturally arose in the mind of Lord Daegal.

In the meantime, our great general met this teacher and became his assistant (slave) without realizing it, helping him in various ways both materially and spiritually.

As his achievements piled up one by one… … this thought came to Daegal Daegam’s mind.

‘If I work this hard… … maybe after independence, they’ll forgive my sins and give me a decent job?’

In the past, I was just worried about surviving, but looking at the situation… … . I had the bold thought that it might go beyond just saving my life and be recognized as an independence movement.

Well, if this teacher had listened to Daegal, he would have tied him upside down somewhere until he came to his senses, but sadly, this teacher did not know what Daegal was thinking.

Just as humans have little interest in the work of ants.

“Teacher! The company’s stock price is rising day by day and the amount of gold mined is also increasing.”

“okay?”

“Yes, the Japanese government, which needed a lot of gold at the time, is buying up all the gold as soon as it comes in, so money is pouring in even if we just sit still.”

“Huh, it looks like we’re going to start an independence movement with the Japanese’s money.”

“Hehe, that’s right.”

Daegal Daegam smiled happily as he looked at the transaction receipts and promissory notes piled up in the safe.

But the teacher looked at that great man with a displeased expression.

“Your Majesty, what are you going to do with those bills and receipts? Shouldn’t you be getting cash from those guys?”

“Haha, this is enough.”

“What is enough? I don’t have money right now. Money.”

“Hehe, this will all turn into money.”

“What? What are you talking about? Do you think the Japanese government can handle all these enormous bills at the moment? No, even if they do handle them all, that’s still a problem.”

The Japanese government has already bought several tons of gold in the past few months.

The Japanese government has yet to pay for the gold that was previously mined, refined, and stored in warehouses by American businessmen.

“Anyone can see that this is an attempt to rip off someone.”

“Hehehe… … . Don’t worry too much.”

“No, how can you not worry? No matter how friendly our Great Leader is with the Japanese Empire, do you think he would take all that into consideration when they are on fire?”

The teacher said something as if he was frustrated with the fact that the great general, Daegal, naively believed in the Japanese Empire.

But even Daegal Daegam was not such an easygoing person.

“Hehehe… … . I don’t trust the Japanese government, sir.”

“What? Then why did you receive the promissory note from them?”

“Hehe, it’s not like I’m going to receive the money anyway.”

“… … ?”

The teacher was at first taken aback by Daegal Daegam’s words and asked him back.

“Isn’t that what the Great Lord Daegal is receiving? What kind of nonsense is that?”

“Hehehe, the money isn’t mine… … . It’s going to be Americans and Japanese.”

“American? What American?”

“When I bought this mine, I was a little short on money, so I decided to give them half of the gold value in the warehouse.”

“?”

Yes, that’s right.

The great lord had many thoughts.

Those who have eaten meat know its taste, and those who have sold a country know how to sell it well.

Our great lord knew very well that if he acted naively, the Japanese government would eat him up.

That’s why they handed over the right to collect to Americans and Japanese, whom they were reluctant to part with.

“The Japanese government is not stupid, and they would not try to take advantage of their own citizens and Americans.”

“Huh. When it comes to money, Daegal is the best.”

“Thank you. Hehe.”

The teacher was speechless.

“And it doesn’t matter if the Japanese government eats up this promissory note.”

“Why is that so?”

“Well, wouldn’t it be okay if I received that much in dollars from a mysterious figure from the Japanese government later?”

“and…….”

There, the big boss planned to use it as a window to distribute counterfeit dollars into the market.

“Even if the U.S. government gets wind of it later, they can just quietly shift the responsibility to the Japanese government.”

“Huh, I thought that Lord Daegal was a pig who only cared about money, but it turns out he had dozens of foxes living in his head.”

“Hehehe, thank you.”

I’ve said it many times, but Daegal Daegam was incredibly smart when it came to making money.

It was so clever that it changed the teacher’s thinking a little.

“If I get the money like that, I plan to exchange it all into British pounds or French francs and put it in a safe.”

“why?”

“Hehehe, then you can use the money for various purposes later, right?”

The teacher shook his head at Daegal Daegam’s words.

“Why don’t you just buy gold with that money?”

“Huh? The price of gold is through the roof right now… … . Do I really need to buy gold?”

Daegal Daegam did not understand what the teacher was saying.

But the teacher spoke to Daegal Daegam in a confident tone.

“The price of gold will rise further soon.”

“Yes? Why is that?”

“There will be a lot of things here and there that will require money.”

“Uh… … Are you saying there’s going to be a war?”

“War? That’s bound to happen. But before we have war, the economy will be shaken up.”

“Ah… … Is that so?”

Daegal Daegam smelled the strong scent of money in this teacher’s words.

If he was speaking with such conviction, it was bound to happen.

Daegal Daegam’s intuition, having experienced many instances of rice cakes appearing in his sleep just by listening to this teacher, told him that this was an opportunity to make money.

“Where does it explode?”

“What exploded?”

“Uh… …. Wasn’t it a money explosion?”

“What does that mean?”

“No… … . The economy is reeling, and you’re telling me to buy gold… … . I thought something was going to explode.”

“Hmm. It will explode.”

The teacher seemed to be pondering something at the words of the great sage.

Then, the great tyrant pestered the teacher like a three-year-old child demanding a toy.

“Sir! I don’t know what it is, but if you tell me, I will definitely earn the money. Shouldn’t I earn more than what I earned by selling out my country?”

“What? Have you ever seen such a crazy kid?”

The teacher laughed hollowly and lightly hit the back of the head of the great sage.

Even the great man who had been hit like that laughed loudly and asked him.

“So where does it explode? Stocks? Real estate? Or the international resources market?”

After thinking for a moment, the teacher said to Daegal.

“Just watch the U.S. stock market.”

“Ah! The US stock market! I heard that stock prices there are skyrocketing.”

“It will continue to rise until October 29th.”

“Oh, is that so?”

Although the teacher had just casually said this, Daegal Daegam’s eyes were already sparkling with greed.

“If possible, don’t play around with the stock price, and move with the mindset of taking and taking lightly. If you play around for no reason, you will be suspected.”

“Hehehe, what do you think of me… … .”

The only thing on the mind of the great tyrant who had already devoured countless ants and institutions in Gyeongseong was to devour the Americans.

“The US Secretary of State in Japan?”

“Yes, it will arrive at Tokyo Port tomorrow.”

“No, you’re just giving me a one-sided notice like this?”

“I’m not too good at that… … .”

Charles Evans Hughes.

He is the Secretary of State of the United States and one of the most influential politicians.

He expressed his intention to visit the Japanese Empire and at the same time entered the Japanese government.

Needless to say, visiting that country without prior agreement was a serious diplomatic discourtesy.

“Why did the Secretary of State come to Japan?”

“I don’t know much about that… … . First of all, according to what they’ve said, it’s to support the Japanese Empire, our longtime ally, in its national crisis… … .”

“hmm.”

“I think they sent doctors and workers first, saying it was for humanitarian aid… … I don’t know either.”

“her.”

Prince Yasuhito, the Acting Regent of the Japanese Empire, was greatly embarrassed by the sudden visit to Japan by the U.S. Secretary of State.

Yasuhito, who did not know much about running a state, began to worry about whether he would be able to respond well to the visit of foreign dignitaries.

“I guess you came here to find out about the situation in our country?”

“That’s for sure. I’m sure that’s what Westerners would do.”

“They’re like fucking bastards.”

For the Japanese government, the news that the U.S. Secretary of State was visiting at a time when the country was in shambles was truly uncomfortable.

“What did the American ambassador say?”

“It seemed like it was the first time you heard about it too.”

“Huh, so that means it was something that was quietly decided in the US mainland… … .”

Yasuhito’s mind was complicated.

Indeed, I had no idea why Secretary Hughes had visited Japan.

“Are you here to investigate the replacement ship construction plans?”

“That might be the case.”

The Japanese Empire lost two battleships, Nagato and Mutsu, in the last invasion of Joseon.

Nagato sank in an explosion of unknown cause, and Mutsu also lost its ability to navigate in an explosion of unknown cause and was drifting in the Sea of ​​Japan.

I heard that the ship was in terrible condition after engaging in combat with an unidentified armed group.

The Navy Ministry decided that Mutsu could no longer be used as a combat ship and decided to scrap it.

That is why the Japanese Empire also planned to dispose of these two battleships and build new ones, and notified the parties to the Washington Naval Treaty of this fact.

Therefore, the most suspicious thing in the current situation was that he visited Japan to investigate this situation.

“First of all, make sure there are no shortcomings in hospitality.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

* * *

Tokyo Port can be seen in the distance.

Standing on the stern of a huge passenger ship splitting the sea, Minister Hughes looked out at the distant Tokyo Port with a gaze filled with longing.

“dismissal.”

“William.”

“The investigation team is ready.”

“Yes, as soon as we arrive at Tokyo Port, everyone disperse as if they were tourists and gather information.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“The information you need to bring is the source of the counterfeit dollars circulating in the market. Do you understand?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”
