NIS Agent Tears the Japanese Empire Episode 269

Black Thursday (2)

“Hehehehe~”

The great lord was in a good mood.

Well, he’s never been in a bad mood before, but he seemed happier than usual today.

“Ehhhhhhh… … .”

Our great master Daegal looked at the colorful lines drawn on a white piece of paper with a smile that would make anyone who saw him think that he had gone mad.

“Sir, here is the expected mining volume report for this year.”

“Ehhhhhhh… … .”

“president?”

He was so focused that he didn’t even notice until his secretary came into the room and coughed right in front of his nose.

“Ahem… … . Boss.”

“Hmm? Oh, what’s wrong, Mr. Park?”

“Here is the expected mining volume report for this year.”

“Um… … . The thing I asked for last month finally came.”

“It took me a while to put all that information together, it was so disjointed. Sorry.”

“Hehe, you don’t have to be sorry… … . You’ve worked hard.”

The great sergeant glanced over the report and then looked at the strange diagram again.

“Go and see.”

“Yes, sir.”

What is it that Mr. Lee, the person whom Daegal Daegam fears the most, is putting off the work of the mining company that he was personally entrusted with and focusing on?

“Ehhhh… … . It’s rising… … . It’s rising again… … . Ehhhh.”

Our great lord was looking at the US stock market report that had been flown in from far away America.

Although the distance was far and communication technology was not very developed, it was not possible to check the U.S. stock market in real time. However, through telegrams, it was possible to learn about various incidents and accidents occurring in the U.S. and stock market conditions within 30 minutes at the shortest and an hour at the longest.

Naturally, the first one to send information from the United States was Mr. Lee from Gyeongseong, who had left for the United States.

“Ehhhhhhh… … .”

Daegal Daegam drooled as he looked at the stock chart that was rising steeply day by day.

‘I’ve already made eight times more. And the increase hasn’t slowed down or lost momentum yet… … If I do well, I can make ten times more, no, twenty times more!’

Although it wasn’t real time, Daegal Daegam smiled happily as he watched his wealth grow by the minute.

As I invested money in American stocks as this teacher advised, my money grew as soon as I invested.

The money was growing so much that in a day or two, several times more money than the great tycoon had ever held in his hands was created.

‘As expected… … . It was right to follow this teacher!’

Daegal Daegam smiled happily as he looked at the graph that was rising day by day.

In the past, in order to earn a little money, he would do all kinds of dirty and filthy things and was often criticized by others, but after following this teacher around, he started to handle enormous amounts of money that he had never touched before and at the same time, he was also ‘recognized’ by others.

Of course, as much as he touched money… … . Maybe even more than that, he was swindled by this teacher… … . But even so, Daegal Daegam did not lose his trust in this teacher.

‘If I just follow this teacher… … I can become the best businessman in Joseon!’

Rather, I had a strange confidence.

Although his current situation was that he was only managing the business as a barbershop in place of the teacher who could not work openly, and at the same time making money through stocks, he was satisfied with that.

“Ehhhhhh.”

Because now I no longer have to worry about being killed by someone, I make money, and people point fingers at me less.

-Knock knock knock.

“Ahem. Who?”

“Sir, here I come.”

Daegal Daegam could immediately remember who the other person was just by hearing his voice.

“Ah! Are you a guest from Manchuria? Come in!”

As soon as the great sergeant finished speaking, the door opened and a young man in military uniform entered the office.

The young man in military uniform shook his head as if in admiration and asked the great lord,

“How can you know just by hearing the voice?”

“Haha, that’s because I have a good memory.”

“That’s true… … . We just met for the first time today.”

The corners of the Grand Master Daegal’s mouth went up at the young man’s words.

“That’s what I told you.”

The great sage tapped his forehead with his index finger and spoke.

“This Yoon Deok-yeong has such a good memory that he has never been robbed of money, even though he has taken it.”

“Huh? When did we meet?”

“No, I just took it as a guess because I heard the dialect of those people.”

“Ah… … . Yes… … .”

The young man took off his military cap and handed the documents to the great general, laughing as if to say, “What kind of person is this?”

“Here is the list of supplies for this month that the Commander is sending to the Great Commander, along with the recruitment guidelines for new soldiers.”

“hmm.”

Dae-gal, who had received the documents, examined each page carefully, unlike before when he had just glanced over the documents his secretary had brought.

Thanks to that, even though it took quite some time, Daegal looked at the documents until he had finished looking through the last page.

While he was looking through the documents, the young man went out, had a big meal, and when he came back, he sat on the office sofa and dozed off to kill time.

And around evening time.

“Hmm… … The number of requests for supplies has doubled since last month, and we’re recruiting almost a thousand new soldiers this quarter.”

Daegal Daegam put down his glasses and opened his mouth.

Then, the young man who had been dozing off stretched and got up from his seat.

“Euuuuuuu… …! Oh, I slept well.”

“Is Commander Kim planning a new operation?”

“Haha, that’s a secret of the independence army, so I don’t think I can tell you.”

“Really? Then it would be difficult for me to give you money and people, right?”

“Hahaha. Your Majesty, why are you acting like that when you know everything?”

The young man smiled slyly and thrust the documents into his hands.

“Please sign neatly.”

But the great lord pushed the papers away, picked up the bell on the desk, and said to him.

“What about signing…? Do you think I’m sitting here to sign something?”

“Isn’t it?”

“Of course not.”

-Tink, tink.

As soon as he rang the bell, the other employees working in the office all stood up from their seats and surrounded the young man.

A group of large figures swarmed around the young man, who panicked and tried to grab the pistol on his waist.

but.

“Aaah!!”

“Don’t do anything stupid.”

The staff’s hands were faster.

When he grabbed the young man’s hand with a hand the size of a tiger’s paw, the young man grimaced in pain as if his arm was going to break and dropped the pistol.

And then he poured out all the anger that was welling up in his chest to Lord Daegal.

“Your Majesty! What have you done! Old habits die hard, so you have finally decided to betray your comrades!”

“Betrayal? Betrayal… … .”

The great squire rose from his seat, stroking the magnificent moustache he had worked so hard to grow.

Then he asked the young man who was glaring at him.

“Do I look like a traitor?”

“Well, isn’t that right?”

“No, I’m not a traitor… …. The premise itself was wrong, you punk!”

The great lord smiled brightly, then suddenly swung his cane and struck the young man on the head.

-Snap!

“Eww!”

The young man was hit with a hard wooden cane and fell to the ground.

Then the staff rushed in, grabbed the young man, and made him kneel before the great lord.

“Ugh… … . This… … . What is this, Your Majesty… … !”

The young man’s head was bleeding profusely, as if he had been hit hard with the cane and had a fractured skull.

“Um um… … No, right now it’s not you asking me, it’s me asking you.”

The great lord asked the young man.

“Why are you here?”

“What do you mean!”

“No, what I mean is… … .”

The great lord asked again.

“Why is the Governor-General’s dog loitering in front of me?”

“What is that?”

“Here is this ledger.”

The Great King a little while ago.

The young man threw the documents he had handed him in front of him.

“If you’re going to manipulate, you should look into it carefully. None of this is right.”

“What, what did you say… … ?!”

“Just looking at the ammunition request box here, you can see that. We clearly received 300,000 rounds three months ago, but we used them all up in training in the meantime, so we’re requesting an additional million rounds?”

“T-What does that mean? You could have used it all up for training!”

The great lord shook his head.

“The point to focus on here is not that we used 300,000 rounds in training.”

“Then what’s the problem?”

“The number of ammunition received three months ago.”

“yes?”

“We sent exactly 300,462 rounds, but it says exactly 300,000 rounds here.”

“… … ?”

The young man kept his mouth shut at the words of the great sage.

Be that as it may, the great lord said only what he had to say.

“There are also some subtle differences in the figures for other items.”

“Why is that… … a problem? No, if you transfer it by hand, isn’t it possible to make mistakes?”

“Yeah, I guess I could make a mistake.”

Even the great sage nodded as if he agreed with the young man’s words.

but.

“But in the documents that our comrade commander personally approved… … the figures are different… … As far as I know, our comrade commander is someone who pays close attention to even the smallest details.”

“… … Even if you are a comrade commander, you don’t care about such trivial matters.”

“Oh really? So it looks like there was a problem with the Commander’s signature.”

“… … .”

Daegal Daegam showed Kim Dong-sam’s signature in front of the young man and asked.

“The signature of the commander of the Korean Independence Army seems to be slightly raised at the tail, but the tip is calmly directed toward the ground… … . Why is it that it just ends with the tail raised?”

“… … .”

“Okay, any more excuses?”

“… … .”

The young man glared at the great lord Daegal and asked him, even as his eyes gradually opened, as if he was losing his mind.

“Just… just. Just. For that reason, I… … .”

“Just because? Did I really tell you all the reasons?”

“… … .”

“Tsk… … . Even though you weed out the independence army so much, there are still rats like this hiding out there.”

“… …Comrade Commander will absolutely not tolerate this.”

“Really? Are you referring to Lieutenant General Shinnosuke, the commander of the Joseon Army (Japanese Army) over there in Gyeongseong, when you say comrade commander?”

“… … .”

The great sage raised his staff again and tapped his chest with the end.

“If what I’m saying is true… … If you happen to get out of here alive and see the Commander, please tell him I said hello.”

“… … .”

“I’ll drag you along.”

At the words of the great sage, the staff members dragged the young man away somewhere.

While everyone was leaving, one of the remaining employees asked the chief of staff,

“But, Your Majesty, Daegal.”

“Why are you calling?”

“How did you know that guy was a spy?”

“I explained it to you a little while ago.”

The Uiyoldan members who had been dispatched here tilted their heads in confusion at the words of the great general Daegal.

“It’s not that I don’t understand what the Great Master Daegal is saying… … But isn’t it a bit different to understand it right away?”

“Well, usually that’s the case… … But he was a little different from other independence fighters.”

“What was so different?”

The Uiyoldan members pricked up their ears and focused on Daegal Daegam.

Then, the great lord Daegal smiled and said.

“Most people who come out and say they’re going to fight for independence are usually people who smell like money and have nothing to do with it… …. Why did that guy smell like money?”

“ah.”
