Through Kanuta’s introduction, I met Adidi and other African mercenaries.
I said to their captain, a mercenary named Khalidra.
“I heard from Kanuta. You accepted the offer?”
“Yes, Mr. Jean.”
“Okay, let me ask you one thing.”
“Say it.”
“How well are you in the mercenary world?”
“Are you doubting our abilities?”
“No, that’s right. If you’re good at it, there’s no reason to use you guys to monitor a woman.”
Khalid grinned.
“I’m against it. Because it’s first-class, it’s used for surveillance.”
“……?”
“There are many types of mercenaries. It’s hard to enumerate all the specialized fields such as security, intelligence, infiltration, information disturbance, surprise, sniper, and martial arts.”
“By the way?”
“Most of the Africans are basically excellent in combat ability, but on the contrary, they are weak in areas where advanced equipment is mobilized, such as intelligence, information warfare, and surveillance. Do you understand what I mean?”
“In other words, you’re saying you’re first-class even in that weak field?”
“Yes. Except for the mercenaries under James’ hand, there are only Korean mafia members, who among them can take on the role of watchdog. Even if it doesn’t seem like a big deal, it’s something we can do because we’re the same.”
I shook my head and smiled contentedly.
Khalid looked at me and opened his mouth again.
“I also have one question for you.”
“What?”
“How are you going to trust that we won’t betray Mr. Jean for money in the future?”
Isn’t that what I have to ask?
It’s not an ordinary bet.
“Of course I don’t believe it, because that belief is what you have to give me.”
“……Is that so.”
“I’ll just say one word instead. If someone tries to bribe you with money, and if you’re attracted to it, you get bought out. Who will say that you are being treated well and that you are moving?”
“……!?”
“I can only guarantee you, but you will miss the opportunity to turn your life around while chasing a small profit in front of you.”
“What if that small profit can turn your life around?”
“If you only want to chase money like that, I’ll give you ten million dollars right now, so go to North Korea and pick up Kim Jong-un’s hair.”
“……!”
Aww, what’s wrong with your face?
You’re not really going to pick it up are you?
“Hahaha, you’re very confident. Can you get something worth more than money with Mr. Jean?”
Whew, that’s good.
If I did it wrong, I could almost be behind the assassination of the North Korean leader.
“Of course. Money is money, but you can also get fame.”
“Can I really trust you?”
“You’ll find out on its own with time, and if you don’t know, get good treatment and change routes. Isn’t that okay?”
Khalid said with a happy smile.
“Hahaha, my heart moves more than any answer I’ve ever heard.”
“What did other people say?”
“In the case of James Thorne, he said,”
“…..?”
“If someone wants to buy it, I’ll give you double the money, so grab it and bring it back.”
that’s the human
“Actually, a hundred or a hundred, everyone said that way. Those who hire people like us take pride in their wealth.”
“But honestly, wasn’t it harsh? If I had told James Thorne of Kanuta’s offer, I would have gotten more money right away.”
“Haha, you don’t know this. It’s only once or twice, but if you use it too often, you won’t have a footing in this industry. If it wasn’t for that friend, Kanuta, I wouldn’t have come this far.”
“……”
“Adidi said that. Kanuta said that he quit his mercenary job when he left Africa. When he became a mercenary again, I thought he was under someone who was worthy of it.”
Khalid said that being a mercenary is a profession that, once started, cannot be easily quit.
The reason is that sometimes you have to risk your life, but you can earn a lot of money relatively easily.
“I wish you all the best.”
I shook hands with Khalid and the mercenaries one by one.
“Mr. Jean, when can I join you here?”
“No, joining will be in the distant future.”
“yes?”
It’s good to get paid from both sides.

-click.
Khalid opened the door to the hotel room by hand.
There, the woman she met in Macau boasted a gorgeously decorated appearance.
But somehow, to my eyes, it felt like a dress that didn’t fit that glamor.
“Lily, how are you?”
A look of embarrassment appeared on her face as she looked at me.
“Mr. Jin! How did you get in here? No, hurry up and leave. If you find out that you’ve met me, it’s a big deal!”
“It’s okay. Khalid!”
Khalid, who was waiting outside at my call, opened the door and held out his head.
“What’s going on?”
“It’s nothing. Take a good look.”
“Yes, please feel free to talk.”
When the door closed again, Lily couldn’t shut her mouth with a puzzled look.
“Now you know why it’s okay?”
“Did you buy them?”
“yes.”
Lily’s shoulders slid down at my answer.
It looks like your mind is loose
“But we’re going to keep monitoring, because we have to report to James Thorne regularly. But we’re going to filter out unnecessary things like today’s meeting.”
“Where is that? I thought I was going to die of frustration, but thanks to Mr. Jean, I can breathe a little easier. Thank you.”
Then, after hearing about her recent situation, I asked what I had been curious about.
“Why then? I obviously told Mr. Jang not to get any closer.”
“……”
“Tell me something.”
Lily struggled to open her mouth at the repeated prompting.
“I want to help…”
“yes?”
“I wanted to help, you. If I left you, I would no longer be a useless person to Mr. Jean.”
it would have been
If I had followed my instructions at that time, I would have paid the promised money and would never have seen it in my life.
Like other Lisboa girls.
“Are you still thinking about it?”
“……yes.”
“Wow, Lily has three options.”
I looked at her and raised my index finger.
“First, I’ll just sit quietly by Mr. Jang’s side as it is now. When all the projects in progress are over, I won’t hold them any longer. It’s probably the safest option for Lily.”
“Anything else?”
“Second, I’m getting out of here today. If you want, I’ll take you safely to where your family is.”
“No. I don’t have a family to return to, and James Thorne said, “If you leave Mr. Jang’s side, I’ll chase you to the ends of the earth and kill you.”
You made such a threat.
I’m not some kind of bully.
“The third and last thing is to help me and put them in shame. I’ll pay you enough compensation when I’m done. However, it’s the most risky option, so decide carefully.”
“What do you need to worry about? I’ll help Mr. Jean.”
“……”
I scratched my head and swallowed a short sigh.
I expected it, but still my heart is heavy because I can’t help it.
“As you may know from experience, I can’t guarantee Lily’s safety. Will it be okay?”
“No problem. As you said, I’ve been through it once.”
Lily continued with a smile.
“You seem to want me to pick the first option, but that’s not a safe option.”
“……?”
“At that time, Mr. Chang said he would be responsible for the rest of his life when he saved me. So James Sohn won’t let me go even when he’s done. He’s a tenacious snake.”
“I heard that Mr. Jang does a good job though. If you don’t have a family, it wouldn’t be a bad thing to be next to him who cares for you, right?”
“No, Mr. Chang will only stay with me for a while. I am a person who is bright by nature, so I don’t know when I will leave. If that person’s heart is gone and I have to stay by his side for the rest of my life because of James Son, there’s nothing more unfortunate than that.”
It’s not the safest option, it’s the worst option.
“Okay, let’s do it together. And I promise. Lily will be rewarded for it.”
“What can I do?”
“I just need you to tell me about Mr. Jang’s every move.”
“Things like that, the mercenaries you bought me should be able to do enough.”
“No, Lily can do what they can’t.”
“……?”
“The psychological state of the person, such as dissatisfaction, resentment, irritability, anger, etc.”
Jang Min-soo will have room to dig in like mercenaries.
His reaction when he first saw the draft resource diplomacy project.
When he read President Hak-Jun Jang’s intention to treat himself and his father as a tool, he appeared to be very conflicted.
“Mr. Jean, are you planning to convince Mr. Chang?”
I just replied with a faint smile.
***
Jang Min-soo could not hide his discomfort.
It was because of the meeting partner in front of me.
Shin Woo-seop, president of GL Trading Company.
It was because he made an unexpected tackle on the acquisition of the Mkana gas mine.
“According to the review material sent to the chief, we cannot sign the report.”
“You mean it’s just not possible because of that one technique?”
“On River, Omia, and West Call. All three blocks are not shale gas. It was a very wrong way to review the acquisition in a situation where drilling technology was not secured, even if the order was wrong.”
“Look at this, sir. It’s not a matter of order. It’s a technology. Whether you buy a patent or a company later, it’s enough to fill it in.”
“It is a technology that has just started to be commercialized in the United States. But why is it not a matter of order? Even if you are lucky enough to secure the technology, the technology on the market will not be effective enough to make a profit.”
Jang Min-soo did not like the behavior of the GL group recently.
It was because it seemed like he was making excuses for this and that by making intellectual accusations in every case.
“Then what are we going to do? Report to the VIP that it cannot be taken over just for that reason?”
“I don’t know why you’re asking me that. We’re just advice to check and inform you about unreasonable and insufficient parts of the economic report that we received.”
Woo-seop Shin drank coffee aloud and continued.
“And what happened. Why doesn’t Zhao Private Equity never give me a one-time deal? The contract with Mkana is in a week? We only got the report three days ago, three days ago. Please have ten days left to review the economic report. ? Does this make any sense?”
“Isn’t it because there are many mines that are subject to review? Stop talking like that when we’re all busy together.”
“That’s right. If you’re that busy, it’s hard to understand why you’re so obsessed with Zhao Private Equity that you have to hire another financial company or do what you need to do.”
Jang Min-soo got up from his seat because he thought he would explode if he sat down any longer.
‘It’s like an old raccoon, pretending not to know each other and scratching in the yard where everyone knows each other.’
“I’ll get up first.”
“Are you waking up already? We haven’t decided yet.”
“Are you going to conclude here?”
“Ah, you want to ask the above? Well, that would be the most convenient and quick. I’ll wait for your call.”
Watching Shin Woo-seop’s sullen expression, Jang Min-soo sharpened his teeth and left.
Then the attendant asked him.
“Like last time… can we proceed?”
“What do you ask for that kind of thing!? Then I have to report it to the vice minister while crying that these bastards don’t listen!?”
“……”
“Anyway, the documents are not to be discarded when the retention period is over! What are you afraid of? Don’t you know that the ruling party has an advantage in the next election?”
“I’m sorry. I’ll take care of it.”
The attendant fiddled with the forged seal that had already been used several times in his hands.
“Oh, it’s annoying!! This guy and that guy, there’s no one I like!”
