  • Nahm-shin said, “I have to sell the house in Seoul to raise one hundred thousand nyahng. Right now, I do not have the money, but I will gather it and bring it soon.”
  • “Bring it in ten days. Banknotes will be fine.”
  • Sahng-jeh-nim had him confirm the amount due in writing and entrusted the document to Byung-ook.
    Impressed by the affair, Byung-ook said, “They are both extraordinary men.”

  • “I place the qi of wealth in the West. In the future, wealth will be supplied from the West.”
  • Sahng-jeh-nim conducted a work of renewing heaven and earth by writing on many pieces of paper. He burned the document He had placed under Byung-ook’s care and returned the banknotes to Nahm-shin, saying,
