139 : Ultimate Loot

a few days later,

Razak came to see me directly.

“How about some good news?”

“The third-ranking member of the new military department of Suharto accepted our intention.”

Contacting Number 3? It was great.

“thank you.”

“You have to go to Jakarta, go to the Surabaya Naval Base, get information there, and go back to Korea right away. We will coordinate so that you can transfer to Daesae shipping on the high seas.”

It was like a military operation.

Is smuggling this elaborate?

Razak decided that once I got missile information or parts, it would be difficult to use the official Indonesian airport.

“I will not forget the hard work you put in.”

“If the boss does well, my business will prosper. I would like to advise you more than that, do not do money business directly with them. Please use me as your money carrier.”

“I guess so. I only have one life.”

“Take Sanshiva, my secretary. I will help with the interpreter and the contract.”

“This is Sanshiva Gupta. Boss Wu.”

It was someone I had met as a bartender at the Sky Lounge.

When I talked to the bartender, he had great common sense, so I assumed he wasn’t an average bet, but he was Razak’s right-hand man.

“Please come to Korea sometime. If it’s Razak’s request, I’ll be happy to help.”

If Razak shows sincerity like this, it means he has something to offer me.

I don’t know when to bring any suggestions, but I will also do my best to help.

“I look forward to that time. Well then, good luck.”

***

next day,

After arriving in Jakarta by plane, we moved to the boat as darkness fell. That was not enough, so when we approached the shore, we changed to a rubber boat.

One of Razak’s smuggling routes was clear.

“Stop moving!”

As soon as we landed, those waiting for us started searching our bodies.

I was taken aback for a moment, but seeing as Sanshiba nodded, it seemed to be a natural procedure.

“There are a lot of people today.”

After the body search was over, the other person seemed relieved.

“This is a guest arranged by Razak. Please guide me to the meeting place.”

Sanshiva talked to Junction.

“Get on.”

I rode a black jeep and ran for a while.

Did I mention Surabaya Naval Base?

It was a naval base only in name, but the place we arrived at was a shabby shack.

“There is the requested item in the warehouse. The boss told me to show it for only one hour, so you know.”

He waved his index finger to mean that the tangent book was just one hour.

“Chief Wu, would it be an hour?”

“No problem.”

They let us into the warehouse and Sanshiva guarded the entrance.

“Is this a Styx missile?”

Outwardly, it looked like a typical missile that jumped out of a comic book.

The warhead was so huge that it seemed to weigh 1 ton.

A good hit seemed enough to sink a large warship in one hit.

“It seems that it will not be able to break through the speed of sound in this shape, and it is large enough to be shot down with anti-aircraft guns.”

Like a soldier, Major Yoon obtained some information just from his appearance.

And on the table, various parts were scattered as if to look at it.

“First, let’s measure.”

“Yes, boss.”

I was in a hurry because I only had an hour.

The shape of the missile and various parts were roughly described and the figures were described as much as possible.

The only thing I was able to bring after going through the body search was a tape measure and a writing instrument.

Even if I had brought a frequency meter, people here couldn’t have allowed it.

“I’ve done all the eyeballs, I guess this part looks like a target tracking device?”

“Yes that’s right. Shall I hide?”

Major Yoon asked with a serious expression.

“Why hide it? You just have to stand up and go out.”

“Yes?”

“The fact that the seats are laid out like this means that we will sell them. It’s polite to buy at least one.”

Major Yoon had an absurd expression on his face, but quickly came to his senses and picked up the target detection device.

Number 3’s intention was obvious.

If the parts were dismantled and lined up, if there were necessary parts, it was said to pay the price and take them.

What he was doing was an incorrigible merchant.

When I came out of the warehouse, the contact book wrinkled my face.

“Crazy! What if I bring it out? Put it back right away.”

“You didn’t want to give me anything, were you just going to take the money? Take me to the boss.”

“What bullshit? Sanshiba, where did you find these guys…”

“Be careful with your words. You are a VIP endorsed by Razak.”

Sanshiva growled in a low voice.

“…profit…”

“Hey, let’s go. Your boss will be waiting for you. You can hang yourself.”

I tapped the tangent’s neck with two fingers. He said that if you don’t take me, you might get your throat cut.

The contact book was taken aback by my words.

The hesitation was short, and eventually we got into the jeep and went further inside.

Only then did the barbed wire fence appear in the distance.

It was a naval base in Surabaya.

****

“wait. I have to report to the boss first.”

The contact book took us to the post office and then disappeared in a flash.

“Sanshiba, is it okay if I wait here?”

“Don’t worry. They will pay for it too.”

It seems that Razak has already given it to some extent.

After a moment of anxiety, the door on the other side opened with a buzzing sound.

And then, a black man came in hurriedly.

At first glance, he looked like a military general.

‘Looks like this person is number 3.’

As if proving that he was ranked 3rd, there were dozens of subordinates lined up behind him.

“You want to buy something?”

“That’s right. I would like to add the price of this part to the one-hour admission fee.”

“Tell me. How much can you give?”

His tone was not like that of a military general.

It felt like someone’s financial secretary.

“It is something that does not require negotiation on the price. So let’s hear the price you want.”

“What do you mean, no need to negotiate a price?”

“Shouldn’t Indonesia hand over the entire Styx missile to the US in order to get national approval? Then, if you go and get missile information through the United States, that’s all. Now, this part is like a Christmas cake.”

Christmas cakes do not sell well even if they go on sale after Christmas Eve.

I don’t know, but the reason why Indonesia got state recognition was probably the price for handing over various military secrets, including the Styx missile, to the United States.

Korea also flew to the United States during the 5th Industrial Revolution and received state approval through negotiations to stop nuclear development as well as missile development.

Coup forces are bound to negotiate that way.

“Kuhm…”

At my words, Number 3 kept her mouth shut.

“Tell me. How much do you want?”

“I need ten million dollars.”

“Oh, this is why this information hasn’t been sold yet. Judging by the appearance, there will be no customers in the future.”

I robbed my seat and got up.

Major Yoon also quickly put the parts on the table and followed me.

“stop. No one can leave without my permission.”

In an instant, his men blocked the entrance and put their hands on the guns at their waists.

It was a threat to draw a gun if he moved.

“General, how are you doing? You treat Razak-sama’s VIP like this!”

“Just draw that gun. One of them will die!”

Sanshiba blushed at number 3, and Major Yoon took another drink there.

He pulled out a tape measure and held it with both hands, threatening the soldiers blocking the entrance.

He said he would make a life-and-death decision the moment he drew his gun.

I didn’t believe that I could cut a person’s throat with a tape measure, but Major Yoon’s life was strong enough to tingle.

“I don’t do business with people who don’t even know the price of things. Razak introduced me, but I never imagined it would be like this.”

I frowned and spoke as calmly as possible.

My heart was pounding and I felt like I was about to jump out, but this smoke alone is worth a few million dollars.

We have to do it.

“Sit down.”

I thought he would growl again, but his tone was more like an apology.

‘Ooh, number 3 is certain.’

He was a man of political power.Read at noblemtl

Judging was also quick.

“If you want to make a deal right, let go of your subordinates first. I left only my right arm and left arm. Then we can talk to each other about what we want, right?”

While discussing these things, there were many people listening, so there was nothing good to look at.

“I will.”

After thinking for a while, Number 3 blinked and the other men rushed out leaving only two people left.

Each blocked the right and left doors, and we sat down again.

“Now let’s talk business properly.”

“How much can you give me?”

“This is about $4 million at any rate. If you have the confidence to sell more expensive than that, leave it alone. Either that or they gave it to the US for free.”

Whether it’s Israel or the United States, if you just give this information, you can easily get 10 million dollars.

Of course, this is possible only for me who has a string in the Ministry of National Defense.

If you give Razak about $1 million, the money I can give you is about $4 million.

I took this risk, shouldn’t I also take care of about 5 million dollars in labor costs?

“Do you think $4 million makes sense?”

4 million dollars is an obscure number.

While this is a large amount of money by Indonesian standards, it was a very small price in terms of state secrets.

“So you talk about business. I mean take care of the rest. What do you need? ship? Train? weapon?”

Number 3 also quickly understood the language.

Most weapons brokers give kickbacks this way.

“You mean you can give me a warship?”

Well, yes.

Will Indonesia need a tram?

Would you ask for a rifle as a reward?

“Sell it cheap. We make a number of contracts and hand them over at 80% of the global price. The remaining 20%, do as you please.”

“I wish I had said that from the start. Make me a corvettes.”

“A patrol ship?”

“I will patrol the coast. I want it to be up-to-date, faster than a rubber boat and easier to handle.”

Then it is.

The coastal corvette was a warship ordered by Indonesia when it established diplomatic ties with the United States.

Originally in history, Korea was subcontracted.

When the new military government entered Indonesia, the first thing they had to do was crack down on smuggling.

Only when the economy is held in check will the forces that helped the coup distribute the beans, and they will also accumulate wealth.

However, there were not enough patrol ships to guard the coast, and even if there were, it was common for them to get lost in the tidal flats.

However, since the military cannot patrol the coast in rubber boats like smugglers, the first thing they did after establishing diplomatic ties with the United States was purchasing corvettes.

Having a drink with a colleague who worked in the defense division is so helpful.

“A warship of that kind would be a bit difficult. It’s like interfering with Mr. Razak’s business. Speaking of smuggling as a business.”

Razak could really be in trouble if he built a patrol ship.

As a result, my fabric business is also in trouble.

“Don’t worry about that. We will give Mr. Razak official import and export rights.”

Great.

At this point, I’ll take care of Razak properly.

Daesae International’s exports to Singapore will also increase.

The fire will be bigger this time too.

“Okay, then recite the specifications.”

“I would like it to be at the level of a multi-purpose corvettes used by the US military. The maximum speed is over 40 knots, so that there is no problem with operation even in shallow coastal tidal flats.”

I liked the specifications of the order even more.

Using this as an excuse, introducing the technology of the Baekgu-class corvettes from the United States would be of great help.

For our national security and for my business.

“How much is the order quantity?”

“If you receive the first one and are satisfied with its performance, I will immediately place an order for two more.”

“Good judgment.”

For number 3, if you steal millions of dollars with 3 corvettes, and add up to 4 million dollars in compensation, you will be able to get about 10 million dollars without any problems.

The price for handing over the missile information was sufficient.

If it’s about number 3, you’ve committed enough corruption in your country so far, so it won’t be a problem if you’re taking that much money through the back hole.

“It was a good deal. If this is enough, we can do the next business together. i want to know your name I am CS Woo. I am the chairman of Daesae Group in Korea.”

I stood up and asked for a handshake.

“Huh, someone said it was Young Tiger. I am Benny Murdanio.”

Huh, was it Benny Murdani?

Someone said that he is a nobleman who will become Indonesia’s defense minister in the future.

He was a nobleman who served as defense minister for as long as Suharto.

He was a nobleman who heard his name day and night when he was doing the plant business in Indonesia.

As for the concession right along the coast of Indonesia, the Ministry of National Defense exercised strong authority as a behind-the-scenes force.

Seeing with my own eyes a person whose name I only saw on papers…

“If you are satisfied with the outcome of this negotiation, propose another project. Whether it’s construction or plant or timber. Nothing will harm each other.”

Now that he knew his identity, his tone of voice was slightly different.

It’s a dictatorship that lasts for 30 years, so there’s nothing wrong with making connections.

After a long night, we headed back to Korea with our loot in our arms.

It was a long and tedious journey by changing rubber boats, smuggling ships, and ships of major shipping lines.

The cost of changing boats alone was well worth 5 million dollars.
