Chapter - 239 Episode 239. This is hell. (4)

"He's gone?"

"……Yes."

"Already?"

"That's right."

Dang Gunnak looked blankly at Dang Jan.

"It's only been a while since we received reports that Hwasan's disciples returned from Unnam to the Dead Sea Conference. But you're already back to the island?"

"…I'm embarrassed, too, but he says so."

"Huh."

Dang Gunnak sighed as if he was dumbfounded. There was a sign of disappointment on his face.

"What's so urgent that you don't even have a cup of tea?"

No matter how busy I was, I thought I'd stop by Dangga once, but I never thought I'd go back to the island without showing my nose.

'You guys are so heartless.'

Dang Gunnak sighed slightly.

Come to think of it, there is no reason why they should stop by Sichundang. They're equal friends, not top-to-bottom relationships to report.

'But being upset means that I think they're special.'

A bitter smile fell on Dang Gunnak's face.

What should I say?

It feels like the friend I was supposed to play with when I was young didn't come to the meeting place.

"And this isn't exactly confirmed information yet……."

"Hm?"

"Hwasan's students seem to have acquired the monopoly on Unnam cars."

"…Tickets?"

"Yes, but we do need a little more confirmation."

"There's nothing to confirm."

Dang Jan, who was reporting, opened his eyes slightly wide.

Looking at the reaction, Dang Gunnak continued in a nonchalant way.

"He doesn't have a monopoly, but he can eat the beast's palace. Even our dangga has been robbed of everything we have hidden in our inner quarters. How can it be called the Beast Palace?"

"You do."

Dang Jan, who recalled Chung-Myung's face, nodded as if he understood.

"Anyway, that's a shame. I can't believe it's already back."

It was the moment when Dang Gunnak expressed his regret. A slight reminder came from outside.

"Lord!"

"What's going on?"

"The chief executive of the Dead Sea Merchant Association is asking to see you."

"Hm?"

Dang Gunnak narrows his forehead.

Dead Sea Conference.

"Take her inside."

"Yes!"

Soon after, the door opened and the Dead Sea Merchants Jo Pyung was opened.

"I see the dang-ga-nim."

"It's been a long time. But what brings you?

"I'm here to deliver the letter."

"A letter?"

Dang Gunnak tilts his head.

If it's correspondence that a person as good as a merchant can carry...….

"Hwasan, is it from the Divine Dragon?"

"That's right."

Dang Gunnak smirked.

Cho Pyung, who saw the smile, slightly bows his head with a rather stiff face.

"I must have been rude."

"It's not like that. Come to think of it, it's funny."

"May I ask what makes you laugh?"

"Think about it. In the Dead Sea Hoiju, Nana, Sacheon, people give strength to their necks. But the Dead Sea Reunion, who delivers the young man's library, and me who is receiving it for good."

Cho Pyung grinned.

"It's not age that matters."

"I realize this again. What about the book?"

"Here it is."

Dang Gunnak opened the envelope as soon as he received a castle letter from Cho Pyong. And I started reading books with an interesting face.

After reading the library carefully, he put it down with an expressionless face. Then, he stared at the landscape.

"Does the Lord of Commerce know the contents of this letter?"

"I was just told to deliver the letter. Then the dangju will tell me what to do."

"You're not a blind man.

A pleasant smile hung over Dang Gunnak's mouth.

"According to the book, the Dead Sea Chamber will monopolize the tea trade with Unnam from now on.""To be precise, Hwasan monopolizes and we do their job and we only take a little commission."

"That's gonna be a huge gain."

Dang Gunnak swept down his beard slowly.

"Hwasan Sinryong wants our party to participate in the tea trade. If you can wipe out the traversal bandits between Sacheon and Unnam, and protect the peddlers going back and forth between Unnam, you will compensate them in exchange."

Cho Pyeong-eun kept her mouth shut to the unexpected letter. His eyes looked at the expression of the elongated Dang Gunnak.

What a man of no back.'

It's not Dang Gunnak, it's Chung-Myung.

In fact, the proposal itself is not bad. The party can also benefit without much effort.

The problem is that Chung-Myung now made the proposal in Danga.

It is an idea that no one other than Chung-Myung would dare to leave the escort service to a party that is united with pride.

"Well."

Dang Gunnak also scratched his chin as if it was getting caught.

"What do you think?"

It was a question for Dang Jan.

Then Dang Jan answered, bowing as if he had nothing to think about.

"Lord, accept it."

"Why?"

When asked by Dang Gunnak, Dang Jan gathered his breath.

"Of course, it's not easy to decide. But that's not a difficult thing to do either. And even more so, considering the benefits we can take."

"How much money do you want?"

"It's not a financial gain."

"Hm?"

Dang Jan looked at Dang Gunnak with determined eyes. His eyes were full of conviction.

"Money gains are meaningless. The important thing is that we can travel back and forth in the name of the guardian of upward movement."

"…Is that possible?"

Dang Gunnak asked half in doubt. Then Dang Jan looks back at the landscape. Cho Pyong, who stood silent and looked at his movements, quickly opened his mouth.

"Hwasan formed a close friendship with the Beast Palace, and I heard that his followers were entitled to be treated no differently than Unnam people anywhere in Unnam. A party member allied with HWASAN will be treated accordingly, if not to that extent."

"Well."

It's a treat comparable to Woonnam-in.

Dang Gunnak's head began to spin complicatedly.

Dang Jan opened his mouth again.

"Isn't it possible to make a connection with the Beast Palace when you say you can go to Unnam?" You can't miss that opportunity."

"…I love you."

Dang Gunnak shook his head slightly cold. But there was no sign of displeasure on his face.

Rather, the corners of my mouth keep wriggling as if this situation is interesting.

Dead Sea Hoiju.

"Yes, my lord."

"From this moment forward, Unnam and his ascendancy will be protected in the name of the Sichundang. I will take it as a sign that those who try to disrupt the upper world will lose to the Sichundang family."

"Thank you, Dangga!"

The landscape is deeply bent.

All the pieces were put together with this. The top who is dissatisfied with the Dead Sea Chamber's proxy exercise of the right to resale, or the bandits seeking the benefit, will no longer be able to act rashly.

At least in this Sacheon, the Sacheon Dangga is like a king.

Trade between Sacheon and Unnam is protected by Sacheondangga and the Beast Palace. Who dares to touch this trade?

"Well... would you like a cup of tea?"

"No, my lord. I have so much work to do right now. I'll come back as soon as I get my first up and down.""You must be busy, so you don't have to come in person. Just put in the communication."

"Thank you for your consideration. Then say goodbye."

As Cho Pyung bowed his head and hurried out, Dang Gunnak tapped his finger on the desk.

After struggling for a while, he suddenly looked up and saw Dang Jan.

"What do you think?"

"It's more than I thought."

"Right?"

Dang Jan nodded his head.

"Hwasan The Dragon doesn't mean that he's just going to escort us. Perhaps this means that we should use the Hwasan alliance to connect with the Beast Palace."

"I suppose so."

"If the Beast Palace, the Dangga, and Hwasan form a friendship, a line between Seomseo, Sacheon and Unnam will be created. This will allow these three clans to exert enormous influence in the west of the Middle East."

"This is a new alliance formed by the former Goofile room, the current King Oh, and the palace of the world."…."

Plum blossoms began to bloom on the west side of the map of the middle field spread over Dang Gunnak's head.

"Are you trying to redraw the power chart that has been stagnant?"

"I don't know how much I'm thinking and moving. He has done this much in just one trip to Unnam."

"Definitely…" Yes, absolutely magnificent."

His mouth corners, which were trying to make a family, are gradually curl up.

It's a real ghost mentality.'

In just a couple of months, the 4,000-party party solved what it had been agonizing over and over for decades.

This isn't the end, is it, Hwasan?

It was Dang Gunnak who wondered what he would do in the future.

"With this deal, the party will have a huge profit. If I had known this, I should have given a bigger present to Hwasan."

"It's not too late. Please prepare a present and send it to me now."

"Do you have to?"

"If the gift arrives after the arrival of the Hwasan Divine, he will be able to give more strength to his shoulders, and we will also be able to show more credit."

"Tsk tsk. They are not the ones who approach politics like that. You still have a long way to go."

"…I'm sorry. Well, let's forget about the gift.…."

"Send a big one in my name."

"……."

"……."

"What?"

"……No."

Dang Jan slanted his head slightly. Dang Gunnak, who finally took his eyes off his son, had a subtle smile.

'Central will play under his hands.'

Strangely, however, there is an unbearable rush of joy.

"Hwasan, Hwasan, let's see how far it's going to fly. No... I'll be happy to be one of those wings, too."

Dang Gunnak's eyes burned with passion.

* * *

"Gasp! Gasp! Gasp! Gasp! Chung-Myung아! I'm going to die!"

"I won't die, I won't die! I've never heard of anyone who died running."

"Hey, you crazy bastard! No matter how hard I try. Does it make sense to run from Sacheon to the island? At least let's ride a horse!"

"We're faster than we speak."

"…he, but!"

Chung-Myung distorted his face in protest from all over the place.

"Take one more foot off your mouth when you're about to whine. The long neck falls out before our legs fall out! Go get some rest, go! If you go to Hwasan, you can rest anytime!"

"Oh, yeah."

Jo-Gol, who stopped by the house after a long time but ran out of the house without getting a bite of food, made a sick sound.

It's got to be a bit of a run. It has already been running at this speed for four days. Now I could smell sweetness in my mouth, so I didn't need sweets.Jo-Gol grabs the shaky leg and pulls Yoon-Jong half-awakened.

"The death penalty! Get a hold of course!"

"…enemies."

"What?"

"…I should have been nice to my enemies. I didn't know it was this hard."

"……."

No, he's really trying to be nice to everyone in the world now. Get a hold of yourself!

At that time, Baek Cheon, who was exhaling, looked at Chung-Myung with slightly questionable eyes.

"By the way, Chung-Myung."

"Huh? Why, boarding house?"

"Why did you bring in the party? No matter how hard I think about it, you are not the one to share the money."

"Oh, that?"

Chung-Myung grinned.

"It doesn't cost me money."

"……Huh?"

"The money is supposed to be on the Dead Sea."

"……."

"Of course, it'll cost a lot of money, but where's the money you can spend on the dang family?"

"He, he is."

No, wait.

Really?

"There's a lot of horsemen, and if you hear that grain and tea are coming and going, you'll really open your eyes and run like a bunch of dogs." But if you put a few poisons in there, everything will be comfortable."

"…That's a very clear reason."

Jo-Gol, who was quietly listening to the conversation, glared at Chung-Myung.

"Hey! What are you talking about? So you're going to eat my house?"

Chung-Myung kicked his tongue when he saw Jo-Gol running for nothing difficult. And then I kicked my butt off.

"No, how did you come from a merchant family? The Dead Sea is good to be safe, the Dangga is good to make money, and we are good to be safe, so why is this a scam?"

No one said it was a scam, Chung-Myung.

That's what you think inside...….

Chung-Myung started running again and talked excitedly.

"Now we won't have to go to Sacheon or Unnam for a while, so we have to make sure we don't go. Then the money! Giggles! Money will roll in like crazy! We're not doing anything, but they're coming and going and making money! What a perfect thing to do! Hehehe!"

Baek Cheon shook his head looking sideways at him like that.

For an instant, Chung-Myung's eyes seemed to have turned into a foliage shape.

Strangely, I'm sorry for Woonnam and Sacheon.'

I'm sorry.

But you're not the only one who's suffering, so please understand. It's hard enough for Hwasan...….

And that was the moment.

"Hey."

"Huh?"

Yoo-Esul, who was running next to him without saying a word, pointed away with a slightly blank eye.

"Hwasan."

"Oh……."

It's finally starting to show.

far away

a sheer cliff enveloped in clouds

A huge mountain peak that rises magnificently.

"…You're almost there."

"It's Hwasan!"

After a long journey, I finally arrived in Hwasan.

"Let's go!"

"Yes, Sa-suk!"

"Yes!"

Hwasan's disciples started running towards Hwasan without delay.

with the most cheerful steps
