“No, fuck.”
I thought I saw something wrong.
What on earth could possibly cause a fire in our apartment?
‘I don’t think so.’
I rubbed my eyes and checked again.
But exactly where I live.
Even on the floor where I live, black smoke is rising in thick clouds.
“Why on earth are you doing that!”
A resident who was watching from the side provided me with information.
“The fire started on the fourth floor.”
If it’s the 4th floor, it’s the house right below us.
“What happened?”
“I think the cat turned on the induction stove in the kitchen while I was out for a bit.”
“ah······.”
Damn cat!
Pushshishishi-!
Although the water cannons fired by the firefighters were aimed at the windows of the apartment.
The fire did not die down easily.
***
“It’s all gone.”
The blaze burned through the apartment for another hour before it was finally put out by brave firefighters.
But even in that short time, the flames were enough to burn everything in the house.
“Fuck.”
Who would have thought that a week after I got back from prison, my house would burn down.
“This is really fucked up.”
It is not a living standard to just clean up soot or burnt furniture.
‘Shouldn’t I have gone to the gym?’
That’s not it.
Anyway, since the fire started in the lower floor, there’s nothing I can do to stop it.
‘Ugh······.’
It was a disaster that couldn’t be prevented anyway.
No matter what I do, that won’t change.
‘Then let’s think of a solution first.’
I heard some explanation from the management office, and they said that the maintenance work alone would take three months.
Cleaning up and repainting the inside of a house doesn’t take that long.
Because the fire was so intense, there were parts of the rebar that were bent, so they needed to be repaired and replaced.
The work gets quite complicated because the concrete has to be torn up or something.
However, the details need to be checked further with the construction company.
Looking at the mess of Korean construction companies, it would be better to set aside a generous amount of time.
‘But it’s not all bad.’
Under the pretext of Bae Jeong-min and BJ Coring robbing me, he moved all the valuables from my house to his house.
The guy’s house is next door so there was no damage from the fire, so his stuff is probably still safe there.
‘Well, that’s a good thing.’
There was something more important.
‘I’m paying rent anyway, right?’
If you think about it, even if this house were to burn down completely, there wouldn’t be much damage to my property except for my belongings inside.
Since you can’t live there properly while it’s being renovated, you don’t have to pay rent.
Rather, they will even give me a space to live in for three months in the house that started the fire.
‘I’ll give you a house that costs at least 750 per month······.’
Even a five-star hotel will give you a pretty good room.
‘It seems okay.’
Jiiing-.
At that time, Bae Jeong-min received a call.
-Hey, you said your house burned down?
“Do you understand now?”
-I went to my parents’ house for the first time in a while and came back, and when I saw it was on fire, I giggled and took a closer look, and it was your house.
“pup.”
-I wish he hadn’t died.
“Oh, he’s still alive and well.”
When I think about it, it’s annoying.
“No, if I was hurt, why are you calling me so cheerfully?”
-I called with peace of mind because I asked as soon as I got here and they said there were no casualties.
“······.”
Sweet guy.
-So where are you now?
“Where are you? You’re just sitting there blankly in a burnt-out house.”
-Kuhaha. I knew it.
Bae Jeong-min said with a smile
-Have you decided where you will stay?
“I just got on, what the······.”
-Hey, then come to my house.
“At your house?”
-Yeah. It’s the same size anyway. I’ve been staying at your house for a while, so what do you think?
That’s true.
Because we’ve been through thick and thin together since the days when we lived in a studio apartment.
-Besides, I brought some of the nice furniture from your house to my house.
“Oh, that’s right.”
Wait a minute. Then wouldn’t that be closer to my house?
“But you’re going to let me live in a hotel?”
-Just talk it over and get paid. Add that to your pocket money and just stay here.
“Are you a genius?”
-I’m kind of smart.
“Then I’ll pack my bags and go to your house.”
-Is there anything I can help you with?
“I’ll contact you if I need anything.”
-Okay, I got it.
There isn’t much of anything useful at home anyway.
‘I guess I should just pack a few clothes and go.’
I headed to the closet.
Pew-.
Blackened ash rose feebly.
“ah······.”
I also took off my clothes.
Even the ones in relatively good condition are covered in soot and are unwearable.
‘wait for a sec.’
I have this saved up as an emergency fund······?
An inner pocket with padding on the inside.
I stuck my hand into it.
Parsasasak-.
“Ugh······.”
A sigh came out naturally.
“I’m screwed.”
When I took out what was in my pocket, it fell apart like a sack of rust.
“My money······!”
There are a whopping 20 50,000 won bills.
The 1 million won that was set aside in preparation for an unexpected situation turned into ashes.
Although traces of Shinsaimdang remained.
It is so bad that it can’t be used as currency.
“Can’t I get a refund for this?”
If you go to the bank and ask them to exchange it for money again, there’s no way around it.
“Oh, but I think there was some kind of system in place.”
A system that returns money according to the remaining area when the money is burned.
Iron fist-.
I sat down and started searching.
The results were dismal.
If the currency is lost through fire or cutting.
1. If the remaining area is 3/4 or more: Full exchange.
2. If the remaining area is 2/5 or more but less than 3/4: half price exchange.
3. Less than 2/5 of the remaining area: No exchange possible.
“Fuck.”
Only the form of Shin Saimdang remains, and in reality, less than 30% of the remaining area remains.
In other words, it has lost its value as cash.
“Can’t we just combine the remaining parts?”

Then I think I might be able to save them at least a little.
With that earnest heart, I’m trying to put together the burned pieces of currency.
‘wait for a sec······.’
A brilliant idea popped into my head.
‘No, if that happens······.’
A shiver ran through my whole body.
I realized it.
I’m talking about a way to copy money.
‘Is this the level where a money copying bug occurs in reality?’
It wasn’t some crazy idea that anyone would dismiss as stupid if they heard it.
This time it was real.
‘I think I’m a genius?’
***
“so.”
Bae Jeong-min asked with his eyes wide open.
“How do you copy money?”
“Now, look.”
I took out a good 50,000 won bill and placed it on the table.
“How much is this?”
“It’s 50 thousand won.”
I cut the right quarter of the bill with scissors.
Bae Jeong-min asked with a start.
“Are you crazy? What are you doing? Damaging banknotes is a crime.”
“No crime is a crime if it goes undetected.”
“That guy is crazy. He started developing strange beliefs after going to prison.”
“That’s not important.”
He pointed to the large piece of bill that was left over after cutting it up.
“How much is this?”
“You can’t use it for money.”
“But if I go to the bank, they’ll exchange it for me, right?”
Under the current policy, damaged banknotes are restored to their original value if they are at least 75% intact.
“yes.”
“Then I get the 25% portion and 50,000 won.”
“······uh?”
He took out three more 50,000 won bills.
Each different part was cut into quarters.
“Okay, so what should I do if I take these three chapters?”
“Will you change it all to 50 thousand won?”
“okay.”
Four bills with 75% each left.
This is 200 thousand won again.
“But these parts that are left over after cutting.”
“That’s less than 2/5, so they won’t exchange it for money.”
“Can’t I use it if you don’t change it?”
“······?”
Sizzle-.
I ripped off the tape.
And then I taped the four pieces together.
“How about this?”
“······!”
“It’s taped, but it’s a 50,000 won bill, right?”
“I see······?”
At first, it was four 50,000 won bills.
However, if you take the damaged 4 sheets to the bank, they will exchange them for 200,000 won.
Additionally, a 50,000 won bill with tape is created.
“I created 250,000 won with 200,000 won.”
“······Are you crazy?”
“Right. It’s called the creative economy.”
“But is this okay?”
“of course.”
A taped 50,000 won note was fluttering in the wind.
“Does this look like counterfeit money to you?”
“No.”
“That’s right. It’s real money.”
Because it was made with actual banknotes.
“But the left and right serial numbers are different.”
“You can do that by attaching it cleverly.”
“······Is that so?”
“Yes. There is a second policy.”
If the remaining area of the banknote is between 40% and 75%, it will be exchanged for half its value.
“If you cut off more than half and still get half the amount, that means there will be more than enough banknotes left.”
“That’s right······!”
Then the serial number problem disappears.
“Crazy, is this really money copying?”
“That’s right!”
It’s sports and all.
You can become rich by doing this in the corner of your room.
Really.
It’s not like I’m printing counterfeit money, so this is legal.
Oh, of course, if you get caught you can be punished for damaging banknotes.
The law states that it is punishable by imprisonment for less than one year or a fine of less than 10 million won.
What this means is that the maximum fine is 3 to 5 million won.
Because I found out through experts at the detention center.
In reality, there is no need to go to prison.
You could make tens, hundreds of millions… no, trillions of won, but a fine of only 3 million won?
‘It’s dog gum!’
There is no reason not to do it.
“Hey, let’s go get 50,000 won in cash.”
***
Bae Jeong-min decided to look for the money.
If we go together to get it and then try to exchange it again, it’s easy to get caught, so he withdraws the money and I take the damaged bill and exchange it.
We entered the bank pretending to be strangers.
Bae Jeong-min headed to the withdrawal window.
I headed to the counseling window.
“My nephew was playing with scissors and cut up all the money.”
He handed over four neatly cut bills.
The bank teller checked the 50,000 won bill.
“Oh my, but it was cut neatly.”
He nodded as if to say, “This isn’t too bad.”
“Then how much can I get?”
“To this extent······ Still, the amount of lost area is less than I thought.”
The employee carefully checked the condition of the banknotes.
“I think I can barely give you the full amount.”
“Oh, really?”
“First, please give me your ID······.”
Knock knock.
He was typing something on the computer.
“Yes, it has been confirmed. Please sign here.”
“yes.”
I signed the document she handed me.
“Should I give you cash? Should I deposit it for you?”
“Please give me cash.”
“yes.”
Chock- chock- chock- chock-.
The bank teller took out four 50,000 won bills and counted them on the spot.
Then he put it in the money box and handed it over.
“It’s 200,000 won. Be careful next time.”
“Yes, thank you.”
So I received 200,000 won in cash again.
In the other pocket there was also a tattered 50,000 won bill taped up.
‘Is it really possible to copy money?’
This is probably it.
It seems like there’s a bug in reality.
‘I’m a genius······!’
