Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 177
Episode 177. I will sell it for 12,000 Nyang,
Obongsan.
Obong Sanchae.
Early moning.
Four men gathered at Sanghwagak.
Yeon Jeok-ha and Gu Cheon-no also have heartache, and Ma Hyeong-do, who is now a debt collector, and Heo Im-dal, a fan owner.
Ma Hyeong-do looked at Yeon Jeok-ha with a sad face.
“Are you sure you want to go down today?”
“yes. I’ll let you know as soon as I get a seat, so come hang out when you have free time.”
“Sure. If you change your mind, come back anytime.”
“Okay.”
Yeonjeok-ha nodded his head willingly.
As Poongyeoncho and Takgomyeong took their place, Chaeju and Buchaeju naturally changed. Fortunately, the two of them got along well like Poongyeoncho and Takgomyung, and the wild vegetables rolled stably.
“My younger brother is going to have an inn. I still can’t believe it.”
Of course, if the business goes well, you can buy someone and leave it to them. Still, I didn’t know that Yeon Jeok-ha, who didn’t like to squirm, would offer a guesthouse.
“haha. I am just the owner and I will leave the operation to the right people.”
Heo Imdal, who was watching, said a word.
“Your brother and sister will do well in anything they do. Is Yeon-ah a normal person?”
“It doesn’t. Old Man Shim, my younger brother, please take care of me.”
He nodded in pain at Ma Hyeong-do’s request.
“Hold on to worry. I’ll make sure you don’t have a single drop of water on your fingertips.”
His confident words put Ma Hyeong-do and Heo Im-dal at ease.
This is because Simtong is a person of old age, unlike Yeon Jeok-ha, who does not know the world.
After a while, Yeonjeokha and Simtong left the palace.
Ma Hyeong-do murmured as he watched the two walk away.
“If it’s just to play and eat, you can stay in the wild. I don’t know why you’re making it difficult for yourself.”
“Your brother must have a deep meaning. It’s not something you can buy with just a penny or two.”
“Is that so too?”
Ma Hyeong-do thought that there must be some other special reason he didn’t know about. That’s why the management of the guesthouse under Yeonjeokha was an incomprehensible decision.
***
Early September.
release.
around noon.
Yeon Jeok-ha and Sim-tong mixed with the crowd of merchants and entered Gaebyeongseong.
It was tiring because they had arrived at the end of a five-day journey, but the eyes of the two twinkled with vitality.
It is because they came to prepare a place to live, not a city they pass by.
“Old Sim, what are you going to do now?”
“Once you go to a place where people gather and find a courier, that’s it.”
“A swindler?”
“Yes, they are the ones who introduce you to a house or land and receive a small introduction fee.”
“aha!”
“That Juru looks good.”
Shen Tong’s fingertips pointed to the base next to the canal where the boat was floating.
Yeonjeokha, who was looking around the canal, nodded with a satisfied face.
The scenery was great, so it looked perfect for playing and eating.
Even in the middle of the day, Juru was full of customers.
As soon as the two of them sat down in an empty seat, Jeom So-yi approached with quick steps.
“What can I get you?”
Jeom So-yi looked a bit nervous when he saw Yeon Jeok-ha and Sim Tong kicking swords.
Yeon Jeok-ha said something as if he had been waiting.
“I am So Hong-joo.”
He glanced at Yeonjeokha as if his heartache was unusual.
It’s been a long time since I’ve been to Juru, but it’s the first time I’ve specified the type of alcohol.
“Bring Su Hong-ju and some of the dishes that this house is good at. And do you have any acquaintances by any chance?”
“Yes, among the customers who visit our Juru, there are people who do such things.”
“If you bring him, I will give you a separate fee for your labor.”
“Yes yes. Then, I will serve Xiaohongju, lamb soup noodles [羊肉烩面], whole chicken dish [料子全鷄], and stir-fried pork. If you’re going to have a snack, the fried rice might be worth it too.”
“Yes, bring it all. Don’t forget to bring the giant.”
Heart pain once again emphasized the giant.
Eating is important, but it’s because you have to buy a guest cup and a bowl of tea quickly.
“Yes yes.”
Jeomsoi groaned and hurriedly returned.
Is it the power of the word to give money for trouble?
The skinny-looking Jeom So-yi brought the merchant ahead of the food he ordered.
A dignified man who appeared to be in his fifties bowed politely to Heartong.
“I heard from Sosam that he was looking for a giant, so I ran. What do you need? I will get you anything you want.”
As promised, Shen Tong threw a hermit nyang to Jian So Yi.
When Jeom So-yi returned with a happy face, Sim Tong said.
“Hum hum. Confucius and I are going to buy an inn and a bar at the opening. Can you connect me?”
“Yes, I happen to be dealing with such things professionally. For other things, I tried to guide you to the nearby upper room, but it worked. Would you like to go see it right now?”
“There is no hurry. It’s all about eating and living, so shouldn’t we eat what we ordered?”
“If yes, I will go first and meet the owners who are willing to sell. It won’t take long. I’m just checking to see if he’s changed his mind.”
“i get it. I will be waiting for you here, so come back.”
“yes.”
The man got up, bowed politely once more, and left.
“Yah. Old Sim is sure to get the job done, right?”
“Hehe. There is such a thing as age.”
While the two of them were laughing and chatting, the drinks and dishes they had been waiting for were served.
The merchant returned before half an hour (1 hour) had passed.
Just as he had just emptied a bottle of Xiaohongju, Yeon Jeokha and his heartache arose without delay.
A courier walked along the canal and pointed to the buildings on his left and right.
“From down there to here is the best place to have a neck. As you can see, even in broad daylight, it is difficult to find an empty seat in the main base. Do you see the sign over there that says Hongwoon Gaekjan?”
“Is that an inn for sale?”
“Yes, the owner is from Jeongju, and he said he wants to go home.”
“Oh oh!”
An exclamation flowed from Yeonjeokha’s mouth when he saw the Hongwun Gaekjan.
It was the largest and most splendid of the nearby buildings.
At that scale, it is hard to believe that it is not a guesthouse but a palace.
When I entered Hongwun Gaekjan, the owner greeted me with a bright smile.
“welcome. I heard you. Are you looking for an inn?”
Sim Tong took the place of Yeon Jeok Ha.
“Yes.”
“Welcome. Finally, I brought out a guest cup. We will match the price as best we can.”
“How much do you pay for a guesthouse like this?”
“Yes, I will give you a cheap price. Just give me 50,000 Nyang. Originally, I should have received 55,000 nyang, but my situation was urgent…”
Simtong’s face twisted strangely at the word 50,000 nyang.
Yeonjeokha’s money is about 8,000 hermits.
I thought it would be enough to cause an accident, but it’s just amazing that it’s 50,000 cats.
“Hum-hum, I know. I will think about it some more and come back.”
The price difference was so great that I couldn’t even bring up the topic of bargaining.
“Yes yes. I will make it as good as possible for you, so please find it.”
Being sent off by the Senate, the three of them came out into the street.
After looking at the heartache for a while, the geomancer spoke cautiously.
“I guess you didn’t like the guesthouse. Let me show you another place.”
“It’s not that I didn’t like it, it’s just that it’s too big. After all, where would you live if you were hit by work? For our Confucius, an inn is suitable for taking it easy.”
“Ah yes. If that’s the case, there’s something suitable not far away.”
The waiter walked about 20 minutes (approximately 20 minutes) and showed another inn.
The scale was smaller than the Hongwun Gaekjan, but the price was 40,000 nyang.
Shim Tong came out of the inn with a grumpy face as if he didn’t like it.
Even after that, until the sun went down, the coordinator continued to guide the guests to Gaebongseong’s inn and main base.
Even at dusk, the face of heartache did not clear up.
It’s worth 20,000 nyang for what kind of bastard’s inn and juru were the size of the palm of his hand.
Even if he combined his money with Yeon Jeok-ha, it was 12,000 nyang.
I looked around until my feet were sweaty, but I couldn’t find it more than 20,000 nyang.
‘Damn it. What’s so expensive?’
I shouted loudly at Yeonjeokha, but it was a mess from the start.
Then the merchant asked cautiously.
“You don’t like even the smallest things…. May I ask how many lines you are looking for?”
“Isn’t there an 8,000 or 12,000 nyang note?”
“….”
At the words of the heart pain, the geomancer was dumbfounded for a long time.
‘This shit. If I had told her from the beginning that I only had 12,000 nyang, I wouldn’t have gone through this hardship.’
Are you trying to buy a guesthouse in Kaebongseong for 12,000 nyang?
They must be people who don’t know the world.
He was on fire inside, but he held it in because his opponents were Moorim people.
“Haha old man. Twelve thousand nyang is not enough to buy an inn in Kaebongseong.”
As the heartache and Yeonjeokha’s face hardened, the coordinator hurriedly continued his words.
“But if you go out of town, there are some inns that can live for that much.”
“Where do you mean by outskirts?”
“The area around the canal in the castle is very expensive due to the original commercial development. However, if it is along the Yellow River, you can get it cheaply.”
“By the Yellow River?”
“Yes, if you go about half an hour (1 hour) to the north from Gaebyeon, there is a village called Hwasangchon. It is a town along the Yellow River. There’s an inn there, but I hear it’s being sold…”
“Guide me.”
“Now?”
The courier had a very unwilling face, probably because the sun was setting.
“Since I have to stay for a day anyway, I’m going to go with both sides.”
“Ah yes…”
The merchant couldn’t bear to say no and trudged forward to the stable.
***
By the time the carriage arrived at Hwasang Village, it was after the sun had completely set.
Faint moonlight was all there was to it, but with the guidance of the courier, the carriage went to the inn without difficulty.
He said he was trying to sell a guesthouse, but it was early evening and the lights were off.
While the waiter knocked on the door, Yeon Jeok-ha and Sim Tong looked around the inn.
The atmosphere is reminiscent of a small inn in a small town where the two stayed during their travels.
Kurur-.
Seeing the sound of the rapids of the Yellow River right next to it, it really feels like a guesthouse on the riverside.
Indeed, after taking a few steps, I saw the dark river glistening in the moonlight.
It feels quite rough, probably because I came to see the guesthouses next to the quiet canal.
After a while, the light in the inn came on.
“Who!”
The brusque owner of the inn changed into a pliable one after a few words from the merchant.
“Come on. Even though the sun has set, you still come to see the inn. You are suffering a lot.”
A sigh escaped from the mouth of the younger brother who followed the owner inside.
Even at a glance, the inn was different from the one in Gaebongseong.
Not only was it overly old, but the walls and furniture were stained and it was difficult to find their original color.
The rooms on this floor reeked of mold, and the dining room was musty.
After looking around the inn, Yeon Jeok-ha and Shim-tong went down to the restaurant on the first floor again.
As soon as he sat down, the owner spoke directly to the merchant.
“I will sell it for twelve thousand.”
He had a despondent face, and he grabbed his temple with both hands in pain.
A rotten inn the size of a palm in an unknown village corner was judged for 12,000 nyang.
