[188]I have to live kindly 1
“I want to say thank you, but I feel a bit embarrassed.”
“That’s enough. uncle.”
“I have ears too. I heard your brother said he would give you another 200 billion won?”
“yes. But the fear was greater. Sunyang’s eldest son was really intimidating.”
The vibrator smiled bitterly.
“At first glance, it looks tyrannical, but that can turn into an advantage when leading a large organization. My brother makes good use of it. Because it worked so far.”
“It doesn’t work for me.”
“Because you are not inferior. Of course, it’s far away in terms of degree, but… you can never accept that you’re on the same line. It came as a fear to you.”
Is this more of a dream interpretation than a dream?
It was just a cover-up, but seeing as he agreed and added an explanation, it seems that Vice Chairman Jin Young-ki’s temper is beyond imagination.
“Now then, we should deal with the most important contract clause first, right?”
“You mean slush funds?”
“okay.”
My uncle smiled and nodded and held out a briefcase.
“It has everything you need in it. Go to Labuan, open one of your accounts, and move it.”
“Doesn’t something like online banking work? Hehe.”
“If it’s a joke, it’s not particularly funny. it’s analog It’s because I don’t want to leave a record.”
“Then it’s money that you can never touch if you don’t visit in person.”
“If you don’t have anything in your hand right now, even if you go to Labuan, you won’t be able to enter the bank. Take care of yourself.”
I said quietly, fiddling with the envelope.
“Uncle.”
“huh.”
“Can I ask for a bonus?”
“bonus?”
“yes. Rather than cooking fish like this, I want you to teach me how to catch fish.”
The fish dish is the item in the envelope.
“Hehe. yes. You learn quickly too.”
I asked how to make slush funds, and my uncle replied with a smile.
“It will be a bit difficult for you. The structure of a financial company is not complicated. I can’t have enough affiliates to prune either to the side or down.”
“Executives also said that in passing. As the computer network develops, it becomes more and more transparent. They said that it would not be long before the National Tax Service took a full look inside the company.”
“Do-joon. Don’t pay attention to slush funds and focus on making your own money.”
Is this advice for me? Or is it a ploy to indulge in the taste of money? Well, let’s interpret it well now.
“It is more important to make the money earned by the company, which is a corporation, with your own money within the framework of the law.”
The simplest way is to get a huge salary.
Or you can take the year-end dividend.
After all, it means taking money without paying taxes.
“Isn’t that something we have to do little by little?”
“Right. you are still young Don’t be too greedy and prepare little by little.”
“So you made this one like that too?”
I gently shook the envelope.
“no. If it was money made within the legal boundaries, I would have proudly put it in my name in a bank in my country.”
“then…?”
“It was made outside the bounds of the law. That’s money made at one time. That’s why I buried it on a remote island in a foreign country without a name tag.”
“That is possible.”
“It is impossible normally. It is possible when a strong wind blows and everyone is staggering, so it is difficult to keep an eye on who is doing what.”
When the big wind blows…
I see. It must have been made during the IMF typhoon.
what method did you use?
“It won’t be easy. External shock is needed and the timing has to be right…”
“You have to write the scenario well. haha.”
“Did your uncle write the screenplay himself?”
“I am a producer. Scenarios are made by smart people putting their heads together.”
Are the talented people facing each other the finance team? Is it a planning office?
“It’s another role of the Planning Office that brings together reliable talents.”
“The numbers the planning office sees and the numbers the finance team sees are different. You will find out soon.”
I mean, I was working on the finance team. Once I got everything I needed, my uncle just shut up. I guess I thought I was talking too much.
I would have told you this much information because I was one of those people who received slush funds. If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t be the kind of person to make fun of.
“Then hurry up and go to Labuan, Malaysia. That way we can finalize the takeover.”
“yes. I will leave immediately tomorrow.”
My uncle patted me on the back and laughed.
You seem to think you’ve been united with me for a while.
It is true that we had a united front until 2003, so I smiled brightly at him.
* * *
“You may order over the phone. No need to bother…”
“Is it troublesome? Are you meeting me?”
“no. I’m just saying this in case you’re bothering the manager.”
“Important information should be discussed face-to-face, and if it is important enough to be documented, it should be documented. But aren’t the things Mr. Woo does can’t be documented? So I really wanted to meet and talk to you.”
A short smile crossed Woo Byung-jun’s face.
Looking at Woo, I asked a question.
“This must be your first time here, but you don’t even look around the room.”
It is normal for first-time visitors to an officetel in Yeouido to look around the interior with only a small table and three or four chairs in a strange way.
By the way, managing director Woo Byeong-jun opened the front door and came in and sat down in a chair very casually.
Not even once to look around.
“I knew. I know you prepared it because you needed a place to talk secretly.”
“Is this your first time seeing it in person?”
“yes.”
When I answered with an expressionless face, I was speechless.
Whether he doesn’t show his emotions or doesn’t have any curiosity about unnecessary things…
I should also put aside my personal curiosity about this person.
“That was a useless question. sorry.”
“no.”
It’s still a dry voice.
“All I need is someone’s weakness.”
“Who is that?”
“These are the people who served as the financial director of Sunyang Construction during the IMF in 1997 and 1998.”
“How much weakness do you need?”
“Enough to hand over materials related to Vice Chairman Vibrator?”
“At that level, you need a fatal weakness.”
Perhaps because of the name of the vibrator, his eyes trembled a little.
“Is it difficult?”
“no. But…”
He said, a bit hesitant.
“it’s okay. Please feel free to speak.”
“Are you okay, boss?”
“What does it mean?”
“The moment you start doing this, you give and take until you hurt each other. Just as I investigate that side, it means that the vibrator vice president’s side can also dig the head’s back.”
It is not shameful to rob the vibrator vice president. Conversely, I am concerned about what might happen to me.
“Are you revealing yourself when you investigate people involved in the finances of Sunyang Construction?”
“no. It’s literally a background check. The question is, isn’t it going to take the finance guy’s weakness and ask for something related to the vibrator vice president? It could be me or the head of the department could do it himself… Eventually, the vibrator vice president will find out.”
“So you’re saying that the vibrator vice president is going to rip me off my back?”
“That’s right.”
“Do you know the people who work over there?”
Even in the closest aide to the two eldest fathers, there must be someone like Managing Director Woo Byung-joon. Could it be that he has a close relationship with Woo?
“I do not know. It is a structure that makes it difficult to know who each other is because our work can leak if there is no thorough partition. But I know very well that the staff over there are talented people who can find out about the director’s past 10 years in a week.”
“How long will it take for Mr. Woo to figure out my past 10 years?”
“A week is enough for me too.”
“Then, I want to see my past 10 years in a week. Is it possible?”
Even this person is surprised when he gives instructions that are difficult to imagine. Seeing Woo’s surprise for the first time made me feel a little smug.
“Are you serious?”
“yes. Even if I joke with the manager, it’s not funny because he doesn’t respond. So I decided early on not to joke.”
“Then give me ten days. Wouldn’t it be more helpful to thoroughly investigate what you are doing?”
Do you think you are testing yourself? Arouses unexpected enthusiasm.
“I see. Looking forward to this.”
“We will try to live up to those expectations.”
This time, he even shows a faint smile. You must be thinking of yourself as having fun.
It is not an ordinary thing to investigate the past of a person who serves and who has to serve for quite a long time.
“Now then, back to the point. How long will the thing I just said take?”
“There are two people, the team leader and the director, so it only takes 20 days, 10 days each. I will investigate and report back if I need more time.”
“Then do me first, then start investigating the two of them.”
“yes. Manager.”
“And you don’t have to worry about Vibrator’s counterattack. I’m holding on to the details of the investigation, but I have no intention of exposing or threatening you.”
“A knife in a sheath is a threat. You know me well.”
“I learned that much. Hehe.”
smiled and stood up You can’t hold on to someone who has to be busy moving.
“I am going on a business trip to Malaysia from tomorrow. I’ll be back in just ten days, so see you then.”
“yes. I will prepare and wait.”
smile again I feel like a human now.
Byung-Jun Woo, Executive Director I want to shake off this man’s back.
Will you accept my order?

“Khalifah Al Tortelier?
Oh Se-hyun, who was carefully examining the documents, CDs, and cards I handed over, tilted her head and muttered the name of the bank.
“It’s an Arab bank, do you know?”
“no. There aren’t just one or two banks like this, so how would I know? But are you leaving tomorrow?”
“yes.”
“Why don’t you give me some time to find out what this bank is like?”
“Please find out. I will be there for ten days.”
“huh? How long have you been?”
“I’m going to enjoy my vacation for the first time in a while.”
“vacation? no way? Do you have any other plans?”
Oh Se-hyun’s doubtful eyes scanned my face.
“What is goong-goong? Really. I made a reservation at Kota Kinabalu Resort. I plan to rest there for more than a week and stop by Labuan at the end.”
“okay? well thought out While we saw rice cakes, we should hold a memorial service.”
Oh Se-hyeon smiled and pulled out some papers.
“When you find the money, move it over here. It is a bank in Kuala Lumpur. If you don’t mind going back and forth, I’ll assign you a trustworthy friend, so you can take the money and leave it with that friend.”
“No need. I’ll just do a few checks and be done.”
“huh? What are you talking about?”
“I am not looking for money. I’ll keep it in that account. I have nowhere to spend money anyway.”
“So, leave the vibrator in the Vice President’s account?”
“yes. My uncle says no one can find the documents without the CD card, so you can leave it there.”
“You bury the money? Labuan banks don’t even pay interest. It’s a bank that only keeps things.”
“You don’t have to delete the account linked to your uncle to collect the interest. Can there be any evidence as important as this?”
“evidence? What proof… Hey! Are you…?”
Looking at Oh Se-hyun’s startled expression, he must have noticed it now.
It could be a 100 billion won tax evasion or a bigger crime. Like embezzlement.
It would be foolish to destroy the evidence when it’s in my hands.
