I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon - Chapter 183
Episode 183. Trouble at the Painter’s Shop (2)
Hearing what his mother said, the flower pot thought for a while and then opened his mouth.
“It seems that the prefectural customs office… no, the prefectural government has targeted our family.”
“target? Could it be that we did not bribe them and this happened now?”
“From what I’ve heard, it seems that other families are giving big presents to the hyeongryeong whenever they have inauguration ceremonies or birthdays.”
“We also gave a big present at the inauguration ceremony, just like other families.”
“I did it once during the inauguration ceremony and haven’t done it since. In any case, the tax revenues paid last year have kept you quiet until now, and then suddenly grabbing the pod… It’s like a warning to us.”
“I have that kind of eye too. The question is, what do you want to do?”
“For now, let’s talk about the fireman. Since the fireman is a poet, the prefecture will not be able to use force. Of course, I still have to give you a present to save face.”
The flower pot and Mrs. Hwa did not know that the painter had not informed them, so they had been promoted from Sieosa to Eosa Monk.
“Didn’t Sang Hyeon-ryeong know that Bu was Sieosa?”
“You might not even know if the former governor doesn’t tell you. And since he didn’t know, he must have sent the customs and forced him.”
“is it? I get it. Then you go and meet the county governor or official and give him a suitable gift.”
“All right.”
The flower pot went to the prefectural office the next day with silk and money, but came back blushing.
Mrs. Hwa asked with a worried expression when the flowerpot’s complexion was not looking good.
“How did you bring these back?”
“It seems that the hyeonryeong has made up his mind.”
“You made up your mind? Did I mention that the wealth is a sine word?”
“I mentioned your wealth, but you snorted.”
“How can the hyeonryeong not be afraid of the sire?”
“It seems that the family over there is not normal.”
Sang Hyeon-ryeong was from Jangsha Province, not a defeated country, so it was difficult to know what kind of power the Sangga in Jangsha Province had.
“Then what should I do? Wouldn’t it be better to pay taxes even if it’s forced?”
“First of all, I will find out how much the family of the hyeonryeong is.”
Flowerpot went back to the Hyeonwigun and asked his superiors, but they did not know much about the Hyeonryeong family.
The screening of flower pots has become complicated.
‘If I push myself a little, I can produce 200 seats of grain… but the problem is that I don’t think it will end with just this once, so what should I do?’
Flowerpot wanted to know about the family of his master, Bangal-i Sang Hyeon-ryeong, so he went to visit the master’s manor after work.
“A merchant family in Changsha Province is quite a powerful family.”
If Bangal says this, it should be considered that he is not an ordinary family.
“Is that so? After all, you have to pay the extortionate taxes and pay some bribes.”
Van Gal tried to say something more, but closed his mouth.
These days, the situation in the imperial palace is so urgent and frightening after the death of the emperor that it was difficult to say sorry to old acquaintances.
Flowerpot greeted Master and found Banhee while leaving the manor.
“Is there anything wrong with the death penalty? Is your complexion dark?”
“It’s a bit complicated, but nothing to worry about.”
“Ah, the death penalty, take this.”
“What is this?”
“I made it once because my mother seemed to enjoy it so much.”
The flower pot put its nose to the cloth and sniffed it, then smiled broadly.
“Your mother will be very pleased.”
“It’s good if you don’t criticize it for being tasteless.”
The flower that bloomed on the flowerpot’s face also bloomed on Banhee’s face.
Ban-hee used to treat Flower Pot as one of the many death sentences, but after Woo-Geum and Woo-Eun left, the two met often, and he naturally fell in love with him. So recently, marriage talks were going on between the two families.
In the wrapping cloth that Banhee had wrapped, there were food that Lady Hwa liked, but also a letter written in half. The letter was to ask about the date of the wedding.

“I don’t even know that the reason they’ve been safe so far is because of the protection of the head of the house, and they’re only trying to scare me with the official position of the Shea Temple. I’m going to have to show them the truth at this point.”
Sang Hyeon-ryeong snorted after the pollen came and went.
“Summon the Hyeonwi right now.”
“Your lord.”
Sang Hyeon-ryeong gave an order to demote the flowerpot from the position of lieutenant to Han-jik when the Hyeon-wi appeared after a while.
Xiahu Hyunwi received the order of the county lord and put on a slightly perplexed expression.
“The military personnel cannot be dictated by the commander-in-chief.”
“what! So you’re not going to listen to me now?”
“Unreasonable personnel intervention…”
“Huh! When did the Jo family leave this place… Do you still think this is the Jo family’s world?”
In an instant, Hyeonwi’s eyebrows twitched.
“I was just talking about the lord’s excess of authority.”
“Is that why you won’t listen to me?”
“…..”
Hyeonwi’s face was crumpled, but he couldn’t hold on and instead kept his mouth shut.
In fact, he, too, felt that his power had weakened when the entire family was moved.
“You want to hear it or you don’t want to hear it? Answer me.”
“I will consider it.”
“You’d better decide quickly.”
“All right.”
Hahu Hyeonwi naturally gritted his teeth, but he could not refute any more and left the prefectural office.
‘I heard that a fox reigns in a forest without tigers… By the way, why did Lieutenant Hwa suddenly have hateful fur on Hyeon-ryeong?’
Hahu Hyeonwi returned to the Hyeonwigun and called the flower pot and told the story of the Hyeonryeong.
Hearing the story, the flowerpot’s face darkened, and Xiahu Hyunwi patted the flowerpot on the shoulder and opened her mouth insinuatingly.
“What will the world do? Even if you say no, use a bribe. Speaking of which, there were even rumors that you would get married soon… Will you be able to stand up for yourself only if you are demoted to a senior position?”
“All right. I will try to appease the lord no matter what.”
The flower pot returned home after listening to Xiahu’s words, but he couldn’t say what Xiahu’s words had told his mother, and he was troubled inside.
‘I wasn’t even surprised by the amount of bribes. How much money do you want?’
My chest was stuffy.

Returning home after a long absence, the painter tilted his head as he found Banhee in the painter’s yard.
“uh? half saucer. It’s half sozer, right?”
“Oh, Mr. Hwa. When did you come?”
“I just came. By the way, what is Ban Sozer doing to my house?”
The painter’s doubts were multiplied when the second older brother, a flower pot, appeared behind Ban-hee.
“He came with me. When you come home, you have to find your mother first. What are you doing here?”
“Oh brother.”
The fireman smiled warmly.
“I was going to go now. Rather than that, why is someone who should be at the military camp here?”
“I took some time for something special.”
“Is it something special?”
“Let’s talk about the details later. See your mother first.”
“all right.”
The painter tilted his head again as he entered the main house.
‘This is so… The atmosphere with the half-sojeo is unusual, isn’t it? Are the two dating?’
After a while, the painter greeted his mother and was surprised to talk about what had happened.
“I am very glad to hear this. My brother is finally getting married.”
“Yes. Wouldn’t you have known about it earlier if you’d been in contact often?”
The painter scratched his head.
“Not even moonshine left… If this was a little late, I would have been beaten forever.”
“So, please contact me more often from now on. Why does Bok-i, who is acting as the lord of Dongu-hyeon, send in-person more often than you do.”
“sorry.”
* * *
“Hyung, eat this.”
When the painter handed over a small box containing several pills piled in gold leaf, the flower pot and Banhee made puzzled faces.
“Isn’t this medicine? I am not sick.”
“I know that my brother is not sick.”
“Then what drug is it? Maybe we’re getting married… is it the kind of drug that will help you have a nephew sooner?”
“If it was that kind of medicine, I gave it to my sister-in-law. I will prepare the medicine for your sister-in-law later.”
“Then this is the medicine I need to take, but what kind of medicine is it?”
“It’s good for your body, so just take one a day for two months.”
“You need to know what is good for what you eat.”
“Excellent! It is a very good medicine for men. How can you not notice? If you see me not being able to answer in front of your sister-in-law, you should notice.”
“I don’t really need a drug like that… Aww!”
The flower pot, which had a somewhat embarrassed expression, suddenly grabbed his side and glared at Banhee.
Banhee glanced at the fireman and took the box on the table.
“Husband! How precious is a medicine made by someone with the same name as Bocchan… Thank you, Bocchan.”
“Oh~. yes. brother-in-law Get up in the morning and make sure to eat before dinner.”
“Yes, I will take responsibility and feed them every day.”
The fireman returned to his quarters after chatting with the two for about half a second.
‘The second brother, who had a great personality, can’t help it with his sister-in-law.’
What the painter gave to his older brother was an elixir that increased his internal energy, which he made with special care while he was coming here.
The era of war will soon come, so the flower pot must also be strong.
That will increase your chances of surviving at least a little bit.

Myeong-il and Eul-ji are the bishops of Ye-ju and Yeon-ju, and if they set their minds to it, they can raise tens of thousands of troops.
Originally, it was a force to sympathize with Zhang Ge when the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, but after meeting Huafu, the direction in which that force was used changed.
Following the advice of the fireman, they absorbed a group of lower class people called Haomen and took control of even the power of the smuggler, giving them ears to hear the information of the sun and the dark. On the other hand, he also created several guilds, took control of the commercial district, and increased his fortune.
In fact, bandits, bandits, and swindlers who break contracts are the most difficult for the upper ranks, but the upper ranks created by the two people rather received help from such people.
As a result, in a short period of less than ten years, Eulji controlled 20% of the Yeonju commercial district and Myeongil controlled 30% of the Yeju commercial district.
In the future, it has become a chaebol that dominates the so-called media.
When Myeong-il was called by the painter, he immediately led the escorts to Cho-hyeon’s painter’s shop. And on the way to the painter’s shop, through a subordinate, he heard what Cho-hyeon’s Hyun-ryeong was doing at the painter’s shop.
“Huh~. How dare you dare to impose a tax on the family of the Master Master… It seems that Sang Sang is insane.”
“Sang Hyeon-ryeong wouldn’t know that Master Eosa is the Master.”
“I guess so. If I knew, I wouldn’t do anything that would make my head run away. By the way, is that why Master Eosa is calling me for that?”
“Will you call the bishop when you are only dealing with the prefecture? That kind of thing can be solved as easily as turning the palm of your hand, if you set your mind to it.”
“Indeed, it is. Then why are you calling me?”
“Since I have been back to my hometown for the first time in a long time, I wonder if I am calling because I want to see the bishop.”
“Heh heh…. I also wanted to see Master Hwa a lot.”
Myung-il laughed for a long time, probably feeling good.
To him, the fireman was a lifesaver and an idol that he wanted to worship for the rest of his life.
