Investor That Can See The Future
Chapter 231
Chapter 231
The day of enlisting in the reserve army training has come.
Taek-gyu and I took out the military uniforms that were stuck in the closet with a determined mind and put them on. It’s not the first time I’m going to reserve military training, but I really don’t want to go.
Still, I’m glad I went with him. At least I won’t be bored.
Taek-gyu looked a bit loose in his military uniform.
“Did you lose some weight?”
“Come to think of it… … .”
I didn’t feel it because I saw it every day, but it seems like it’s definitely missing compared to before.
Ellie offered to take us to the training ground, leaving her half way through the morning.
“Wow! It’s cool to see both of them in military uniforms.”
I said with a sigh.
“Is it possible?”
Curiously, no matter how good a person is, he looks like a fool when he wears a military uniform. Especially if it has a reserve army mark.
Taehyung nodded his head.
“It’s a bad example of cosplay.”
I told Ellie.
“We can go together.”
“In Korea, they say that when you enlist in the military, your girlfriend will see you off.”
“It’s enlistment, not enlistment.”
If anyone hears it, you will be re-enlisted.
We got into the car, and Ellie took the steering wheel and started the car. It takes about an hour and a half from here to the reserve army training.
I called my mother as I went.
[If you go, take care of yourself. Don’t crash.]“Do not worry. I’m just going there for a while.”
[But always be careful. Understand?]“Yeah, okay.”
If you think about it, whether you are a famous celebrity or a third-generation chaebol, if you have served in the military, you are eligible for conscription. Will they all go to training?
When she hung up, Ellie said with a worried expression.
“By the way, didn’t there have been a gun accident at the reserve army training ground last year?”
“It was.”
A reservist opened fire at his comrades while firing and then committed suicide. Three people were killed, including the perpetrator, and three others were seriously injured.
The reserve army training ground is such a dangerous place.
Taegyu said.
“No worries. He said he was thoroughly prepared for enlistment.”
I sighed.
“I am not a soldier of any interest.”
It was later revealed that I was an interested soldier in the early days of enlistment. Not because I did anything wrong, but because my father died before enlistment. (If there is a sick person in the family or a broken family, it is classified as a soldier of interest.)
“Aren’t you treated like a masked torturer?”
“shut up.”
Ellie asked as if she didn’t understand.
“Isn’t it nice to get attention if you’re an interested soldier? Adviser is also a high position.”
“… … .”
This is true, but in the military it is used in the opposite sense.
Ellie asked if she had any questions.
“Do you shoot and bayonet every day in the military?”
“Well, it’s not that I don’t… … .”
I only do that at the training camp, and I rarely do it after I’ve been assigned to self-defense.
The thing he does most is shoveling, and depending on the position, there are cases where he is discharged without firing a gun properly.
In fact, how many times would an administrative officer or a cook would fire?
Of course, this also varies from unit to unit. When I meet a battalion commander or company commander who is full of motivation for nothing, my head hurts.
“How much do you pay for training?”
“Dongmicham is probably 13,000 won.”
Ellie nodded her head.
“If you train for 8 hours a day, it costs 104,000 won a day, which is a bit small. I think I can give you more.”
“Well… … .”
As a foreigner, I have a very big misunderstanding about the Korean military.
“No, the hourly wage is not 13,000 won, but 13,000 won a day.”
At my words, Ellie smiled.
“Hey, don’t joke.”
Then Taek-gyu said.
“By the way, this includes food and transportation expenses.”
Ellie was startled.
“No, that’s absurd. How can a country with an economy the size of Korea train you for less than the price of a chicken? … .”
“In Korea, the hourly wage for a soldier is lower than that of prisoners who work in prisons.”
Taek-gyu thought for a moment, and then he said.
“But don’t they give more than the North Korean army?”
* * *
Cars and buses loaded with reservists entered the training ground one after another. We parked a little farther away from the crowd.
I kissed Ellie lightly.
“Hey, what if I want to see you?”
“You leave work at six o’clock.”
This is the advantage of dongmicham training.
“Yes.”
“I’ll call you when I’m done.”
“Go carefully.”
We got out of the car and walked into the training ground. It’s not like any celebrity is enlisting in the military, but there were even reporters in front.
I tried to put my hat on as much as I could and bow my head, but reporters blocked the front and held out a microphone.
Come to think of it, my name is engraved on my uniform… … .
“With what kind of determination are you participating in the reserve army training?”
“There was a shooting a while ago, aren’t you worried?”
“What do you think of the recent issue of military bribery?”
“Aren’t you thinking about future investments in the defense industry?”
“… … .
What the hell kind of question is this?
I looked at the camera and said a few words.
“I will train hard.”
Reservists had already gathered in the training ground. Seeing that figure reminds me of the time I enlisted.
The reservists were amazed when they saw me.
“Wow! After Gangjin!”
“I didn’t think it would come, but it really did.”
“You’re going to see Jin-hoo Kang here.”
“jackpot.”
How popular is this?
The reserve forces around them greeted each other with difficulty, even though it was difficult. I was greeted one by one. Meanwhile, word of mouth began.
The battalion commander stood on the podium and said:
“This battalion commander is very proud of the soldiers of the reserve forces who have gathered to protect the country and the people.”
Taek-gyu asked me in a low voice.
“Why on earth do you refer to yourself in the third person? How is that different from saying ‘Taek-gyu is so happy’?”
“That’s it.”
The company commander of our unit also lived with the words, “This company commander was very disappointed with you.” And every time he heard those words, the ‘Bon Soldier’ was also very disappointed with the company commander. As a bonus, his hands and feet were also shriveled.
A new recruit would stand in an immobile position, holding each other, but the reserve forces yawned with their legs crossed no matter what the battalion commander said.
After the entrance ceremony was over, he moved to the training ground and began the full-scale reserve army training.
“Squad Major! Charge towards the high ground!”
As anyone who has undergone reserve military training knows that, this is neither a training nor a field trip, but a feeling somewhere in between.
The reservists who had gathered to give up their livelihoods to protect the country and the people moved in a difficult state as if they had starved for a week.
Wouldn’t the North Korean army during the hard march or the Red Army at the end of the Great Campaign be better than this?
“Seniors! Run a little faster!”
“The gun does not drag on the floor!”
He must have been working in the CEO’s office until yesterday, but today he is wearing a bulletproof hat and military uniform and holding an M16.
What the hell am I doing here?
Taek-gyu hummed a song next to him.
“I am someone, and here I am. The country is calling me from afar… … .”
I’m very excited
Taehyung said with a smirk.
“Isn’t it fun to do each battle after a while?”
I asked absurdly.
“Is this fun? fun?”
“Huh. It’s like playing an FPS game, and it’s good.”
“… … .”
What did the country do? I’m not taking this guy to active duty.
This kid is in the public interest, so it might be fun because he’s been trained for 4 weeks. But since I’m active duty, I did this all my life in the military.
Inevitably, I met a battalion commander with a twisted number and needlessly ambitious, so I took turns receiving guerrillas, cold weather, and tactical training.
Because the physical strength and morale of the reserve forces penetrated the crust and reached the inner core, the training was eventually replaced with a demonstration by an excellent assistant.
When it was time for a break, everyone sat down on the dirt floor and started talking with a cigarette in their mouth.
“If you get hit by a hit in the military, you have to end it with that. Why are you doing reserve military training?”
“It’s all because of the fucking stars. We need a reserve force to maintain the star number.”
“They are real torturers. In the past, there was a case where Tustar and his wife got caught by a sergeant when he was aggressor.”
“I’m going to raise the training fee with the money that these bastards pay.”
“Hey, dirty world!”
A reservist came up to me and offered me a cigarette.
“The president also drinks one.”
“It’s okay. I don’t smoke.”
“Could you please sign an autograph later?”
“It’s not going to happen.”
At first, he seemed to be having a hard time with me, but then he asked questions like it was strange, and I answered almost anything. We’ll have to train together for a few days, but there’s nothing wrong with being close.
A young man, who had dyed his hair yellow, grabbed his waist and moaned.
“I have had a bad back since before. Should I go to the medical school?”
Then the man who had been joking around with his finger before poking his nose said:
“Where are you hurting?”
“The left side of my lower back has been aching since a few days ago.”
“Put your clothes on. I’ll take a look
“Are you uncle?”
“I am an orthopedic resident at Shilla University Hospital.”
Everyone was surprised by that.
“Five! really?”
“Ah, you are a doctor.”
When doctors wear military uniforms and come to reserve military training, they all look the same.
Everyone was resting hard, but the assistant came and said,
“Seniors! Break is over!”
Then everyone lay down and gave a thumbs up.
“I think I sprained my ankle.”
“Ugh! I can’t feel my lower back.”
“I have a little headache.”(Read more @ wuxiax.com)
“I lost my shoulder. Can you see the arm wobbling, can’t you see it?”
“Call 911 right now and tell me to pick you up.”
There is a miracle that even a healthy person becomes a patient for fear that someone is not a reserve force training ground.
So, how do you create a miracle that transforms a patient into a healthy person?
“Lunch time!”
Then all the reservists who were sick and could not get up jumped up.
“What are you doing, assistant?”
“Let’s go eat!”
* * *
After training on the first day.
We got into the waiting vehicle and returned home.
When I got home, the sun was already setting.
Every day, after working at the company, I feel like I went camping… … Creeper horn.
I wish I had gone through high school as an active duty soldier, but this is what I’ve been doing even after being discharged!
At the thought of having to do this again tomorrow, an unbearable anger boils over.
“Think good.”
“Hate.”
Then Taek-gyu said.
“Think of your Excellency, who is lying in a cold cell and resenting you. Compared to that, you are happy.”
“… … .”
Why are you here, sir?
next day.
We headed to the training ground to receive reserve training again.
While training in first aid, the reservists yawned or fell asleep. I wanted to sleep too, but I pretended to listen intently because there are a lot of eyes around me.
“First, check the victim’s breathing and pulse, and then perform CPR. The important thing here… … .”
The first-class TA demonstrated CPR with the dummy in front of him.
When I saw it, a thought suddenly came to mind.
Explosions, smoke, the smell of gunpowder, a soldier screaming while holding his leg… … .
After training, I was deployed as a mortar. My gunner was a freshly promoted corporal.
His name is Jae-Hak Kim. He was two years older than me, and after graduating from high school, he did not go to college and did various jobs before enlisting in the army.
He said that it was his dream to earn money and open his own shop after being discharged from the military.
There is no place where the nature of a person is revealed as well as in the military. In that respect, Sgt. Kim Jae-hak was a pretty decent person. Me and I got along really well.
However, three months before the discharge, a problem arose.
During mortar shooting training, the new mortar exploded.
At that moment, thanks to the wisdom that appeared in front of me, I quickly fell to the floor. Thanks to you, everything was fine except for the deafness.
However, the platoon commander died on the spot, and Sgt. Kim Jae-hak suffered serious injuries with fragments piercing his leg. At first glance, the condition was dire.
That was the last thing I saw him.
After being discharged from the military hospital and returning home, I heard that Sgt. Kim Jae-hak had his right knee amputated and that he had been discharged from the military service.
We said we would see each other often after being discharged from the military… … .
He thought that someday he would go find him. However, since the day of the discharge, various things happened, so I completely forgot about it.
How do you want to live now?
