Hue is the goat
Giving up punishment for traitors to the state means giving up on pride and status as a nation.
In particular, North Korea is a country where a thorough idolization of its leader has been carried out.
And, of course, not even an inch of blemish is tolerated by idols.
No matter how important the attack information is, would North Korea even give up its traitors to obtain it?
I honestly think it’s hard.
No matter how much strategy information has been opened, to be honest, you might think that it is enough to stifle China as before.
But it doesn’t matter.
I looked at Jang Pan-ho and said with a smile.
“… That’s why I put my hands on it so that I could talk to North Korea first.”
In the first place, my purpose was to make fun of Jang Pan-ho.
“If it goes well, I think we will be able to bring our comrades who escaped to China to Korea.”
Jang Pan-ho said with a shocked expression.
“Thank you. Thank you so much!”
“Of course it won’t be easy. In fact, within our group, the probability of failure is higher than the probability of success. But I couldn’t let go of that, so I did this.”
I also made a hole to get out of, highlighting how much effort I put in.
“But I do not intend to sit still and trust only the government.”
“Yes?”
“The defectors… So, I was introduced to a broker by defectors and promised to give a huge reward if my comrades succeed in defecting.”
“…ね… .”
People who do not know Pan-ho Jang’s future cannot understand why I care so much about Pan-ho Jang.
Because Jang Pan-ho is just a hunter who has the skills but failed in the coup.
“I really don’t know what to say. I didn’t even know you were such a person… .”
“It was nothing. Aren’t they the same compatriots? I have to help.”
I looked at Jang Pan-ho and said.
“Once the work is finished, Pan-ho Jang will be free. Do you have any plans?”
“… I don’t know. My head is still complicated.”
“There are two paths for Pan-Ho Jang.”
“two?”
I spread out two fingers and then folded one.
“first. The path as a hunter. This doesn’t really need to be explained. As in North Korea, you make money by hunting monsters and selling by-products. You will be much more free than in North Korea. Since we already have comrades, we can form a guild and work.”
I said as I folded the rest of my fingers.
“The second is the path of a politician.”
Pan-ho Jang said with a surprised expression, whether it was an unexpected word.
“politician?”
“Mr. Pan-ho Jang was the first person to lead a coup d’état in North Korea to the brink of success. In the Republic of Korea, which has North Korea as its main enemy, any achievement that is worthy of its own is no less than a hero. Perhaps, without needing to, a love call to Jang Pan-ho… So invite? I don’t know what the right word is.”
“I roughly understood what you meant.”
“okay? In any case, it would be possible to become a member of parliament without much difficulty. It deserves more than the first place in the proportional representatives.”
It’s a very possible scenario.
But that’s not the case.
If Pan-ho Jang becomes a politician, he loses his speciality.
Politicians can do anything, even if it’s not Jang Pan-ho.
“I personally recommend Hunter Pan-Ho Jang, not a politician.”
“Why?”
“The path of a politician is a path of concussion. At first, both the ruling and opposition parties will treat you like a hero, but over time, it is clear that the politicians of the opposition party will make up all the facts that exist in order to somehow undermine Jang Pan-ho. If the ideals and beliefs of Mr. Pan-ho Jang were tainted because of that, what would the hunters who believed and followed Mr. Pan-ho think?”
Pan-ho Jang should be the centerpiece of North Korean hunters.
To do that, I have to settle down in South Korea as a hunter, not a politician.
“Isn’t it better to become a supporter for hunters who might come to Korea in the future by fully establishing themselves in South Korea as a hunter?”
If it’s true that you stood up for your beliefs and not your personal achievements, then you would accept my proposal.
Korean politicians have to work only for Korea.
Pan-ho Jang said after thinking for a while.
“… Politicians never thought about it. It will be the same in the future.”
“okay. Anyway, this is managed by the National Intelligence Service, so I can’t tell you the details. If you come later, please contact me. Then we’ll talk about it in detail.”
I took out my business card and handed it to Jang Pan-ho and said.
“Here is my business card.”
Pan-ho Jang, who took the business card, looked at the business card and said.
“… Why are you helping me like this?”
“Because I love talented people.”
Especially those with convictions.
People with faith are good to use and eat because of their blind purpose.
As if Kim Woong was swayed by me because of his beliefs, and in the end, he became neither one nor one.
I said with a bright smile.
“Then I will wait for you to contact me. It will make you feel that your trip to Korea was never in vain.”

The power of money is scary.
When they promised the brokers a large amount of compensation, the brokers risked even the Chinese authorities’ surveillance to help the hunters escape from North Korea.
-At the dawn of this morning, a hunter suspected of being involved in a North Korean coup attempted a surprise entry into the South Korean embassy in China.
The most popular route for North Korean defectors was to sneak into China and hide in a hiding place provided by brokers.
However, as it was popular, the Chinese government knew it well, so there were already a lot of hunters belonging to the Chinese government near the embassy.
-3 out of 6 people successfully entered, and 3 were stopped by the Chinese hunter… .
“It’s half a success.”
Then I got an extension phone call from the secretary’s office.
-President. The broker has contacted you. I want you to pay the success fee for 3 people.
The reward I offered for each hunter was 500 million won.
This was the amount set because the brokers thought they would help the hunters escape even if they took the risk.
“Please pay.”
-All right.
“And from now on, tell them to move toward a third country rather than China. Instead, raise the compensation to 600 million won.”
– I’ll tell you that.
After the call, I muttered while watching the news.
“Only three people succeeded… .”
How to save the other 3?
I thought for a while and said.
“no.”
If they were caught openly like this, if they had not been exposed to the media, neither China nor North Korea would agree to any negotiations because of their face.
Political logic is different from economic logic.
“I’d rather you call me quietly… yes?”
for a moment.
After all, most hunters escape from North Korea through a broker.
That’s because the embassy is located a long way from the North Korean border, and there is no way to reach North Korean hunters who can’t speak Chinese without questioning them.
“Then what if I contact the brokers and send the hunters to a safe place, and then tell the government about the place?”
It’s much better for the government to act than it is for me to act on my own.
I just help out in the middle.
If China and North Korea are driven by political logic, the same goes for the South Korean government.
If you fail to bring it to Korea after knowing it in the first place, that is a loss of face for the Korean government.
It’s about confronting North Korea’s political logic with South Korean political logic.
Of course, let the government take care of it.
It’s a way of shifting the burden on the government, but somehow it’s about saving the heroes of the North Korean coup, so it’s not clear why.
“great.”
I picked up the extension phone and contacted the secretary’s office.
-Yes. President.
“Contact the brokers. and… .”
* * *
“friend!!”
As the hunter, who had successfully entered Korea through the Korean embassy, came running, Jang Pan-ho grabbed his hand and said:
“Good job. great job.”
“We lived alone. only us… .”
At the words of Hunter, Pan-ho Jang said, biting his lip.
“… Where did you buy it? Don’t be too hard on yourself.”
“Sobbing.”
After the tearful reunion, the hunters calmed their hearts and continued the conversation with Pan-ho Jang.
“By the way, I never dreamed that I would get help from that person. I used to swear like that in the North.”
With the information obtained from Jeong In-soo as a weapon, the Hunters flocked to the Labor Guard, and the coup d’état felt increasingly threatened, and it is no wonder that he vomited his anger against Jeong In-soo in the process.
“Waiting?”
“What the broker is saying is that if you help us, they promise to give us a lot of money. To be honest, if it wasn’t for that money, China was looking for us and it was dangerous and they wouldn’t have helped.”
Jung In-soo’s words of help were true.
Not only did he mobilize all his personal connections to make the government active, but he also used money to help his comrades escape.
“Let’s not forget.”
Pan-ho Jang said with his eyes wide open.
“The disgrace we have received, and the grace we have received.”
* * *
South Korea, North Korea and China have always looked the same.
North Korea and South Korea growl saying they don’t like it, while China defines North Korea’s coup as a rebellion, but only makes an ambiguous position that it hopes for an amicable resolution between North Korea and South Korea.
However, behind the scenes, a high-level diplomatic battle was unfolding, pushing and pulling through intense under-water contact.

Meanwhile, when I informed the government of the location of the hunters I received from the brokers, the government complained about it, but that’s not up to me.
“Honestly, if you save a lot thanks to me, it’s not good for the government.”
Anyway, the government or civil servants, if they do anything, it comes from the sound of pain, such as this is difficult, that is difficult, etc.
“By the way, North Korea is more stubborn than I thought.”
Still, I thought I was given a decent hand, but North Korea came out with a stronger stance than I expected.
It means that you are seriously thinking about the coup.
Of course, that doesn’t change anything.
I said with a smile.
“I’m already looking forward to it.”
A defector guild established in South Korea by Jang Pan-ho, the coup leader.
The more they eat and live, the more North Korean hunters will envy them.

Moreover, since there are still remnants of the coup d’etat hidden, perhaps even a large-scale escape rush by North Korean hunters is not impossible.
To be honest, crossing borders or the truce line is not a job for Hunter.
The only way to prevent it is to spread the Labor Guards along the escape route and block the source. Will the Kim family turn the Labor Guards outward, the last stronghold to protect them?
That’s never going to happen.
In this way, Pan-ho Jang’s guild becomes a milestone for North Korean hunters who dream of escaping.
I said with a relaxed expression.
“Wait slowly.”
‘Cause time is on my side anyway
* * *
After two months of under-the-ground diplomatic warfare, it was concluded that, instead of North Korea’s drastic actions, such as provocations, South Korea would try to limit the exposure of Jang Pan-ho and his colleagues to the media as much as possible.
Still, it seems that North Korea has made some concessions to the fact that the bait I put out was effective.
Apparently, when a new dungeon appears in the future, it is essential to provide information in order for the Labor Guard to have the upper hand as it is now.
Of course, both the ruling and opposition parties are already salivating over the recruitment of Pan-ho Jang, so it is not clear how long it will last when exposed to the media, but it was significant that both sides agreed not to confront each other to the limit.
Thanks to this, although he has to accompany an NIS agent for the time being, Pan-ho Jang and his colleagues have gained limited freedom.
After completing the Hanawon settlement education, they were officially issued resident registration cards and became fully Koreans.
Naturally, the Korean people are guaranteed the freedom to enter the dungeon, so Jang Pan-ho set up a guild with his colleagues and started activities in earnest.
Naturally, with my help in the process, they even borrowed equipment from me, and they settled in Korea smoothly.
“It’s already 150 people.”
The number of hunters who defected from North Korea for the first time was 100, but the number has already increased to 50 and the number has grown to 150.

Many of them boasted of their skills enough to successfully escape the pursuit of the Labor Guard, so they quickly grew into one of the guilds that surpassed the ranks of the top guilds.
After that, Jang Pan-ho is repaying his favor by selling all the by-products collected from the guild to Jeongin development.
“I spent tens of billions of dollars, but I have to pay this much.”
Anyway, Jang Pan-ho’s guild settled in Korea so smoothly.
I heard that the guild members are quite satisfied.
Because the South Korean guilds used evil and hated taxes, they were too generous and generous compared to North Korea.
What do you want to hear?
Did you say that the government resells all by-products and receives only the price set by the government?
“If you buy it cheap and sell it overseas, it’s all in dollars, so that’s okay.”
To be honest, even if you’re like me, I think I’d do it if I had that kind of monopoly.
At the same time, I thought that North Korea was worthy of collapse in a previous life.
To be honest, if it wasn’t for the Labor Guard, which was different from the previous life, how would I have dealt with the hunters who rise up from such tyranny?
“By the way, it’s an overseas export… .”
As the new C-class dungeon resort opened in earnest, foreign hunter workers under Yoon Sang-deok were producing a huge amount of snow-white fruits.
Now supply outstrips demand.
I said with my eyes shining.
“Would you like to export the powder of Beksul fruit as well?”
It is to open up a new market by dispatching fully recruited foreign hunters abroad.
After all, in Korea, the price of beksul fruit powder is only going to go down if they are all hugging each other.
Or you can invite local buyers to Korea and make them buy in Korea.
“Hmm.”
Not bad.
Korea is sticking to a low-margin policy to prevent competitors from appearing, but overseas there is no need for that.
taken from noblemt l
Maybe this will be more money.
“Are you going to try it?”
Anyway, the link between me and the black market is completely broken except for Yoon Sang-deok.
That is to say, there is no need to look.
I picked up the phone and called Sang-deok Yoon.
-Yes. President.
Only Yoon Sang-deok has a direct phone line with me.
“Mr. Sang-deok. Do you have enough stock?”
– It’s not enough, it’s overflowing. I’m running foreign kids in two shifts… haha.
“okay?”
I said with a smile.
“Then, isn’t it a bit of a waste to only be in the Korean market? There must be many customers overseas.”
Then, Yoon Sang-deok said with a smile.
-Five! Good idea!
“buyer. Can you save me?”
– That’s nagging to say the least. There are a lot of foreign kids who regularly buy snow white fruit from floor vendors. Of course, they’re the little ones, and I think we’ll have to get in touch with their superiors to secure a market.
excellent.
Even if it’s not us anyway, snow white fruit is already being traded secretly in most countries.
It’s nothing to take a step on.
Besides, we already have a lot of foreign hunters, so we can create an organization similar to Korea in other countries based on them.
Hopefully, who knows if the global organization that the Black Tiger organization has always called out will come true.
“Then check it out. Because it seems too narrow to play only in Korea.”
