Warrior Grandpa and Supreme Granddaughter - Chapter 94
Episode 94: The World’s Famous Iron Man (2)
Now all that was left was to negotiate the price.
Yu Seol asked with a nervous expression.
“how much is this?”
“I can’t ask for anything more than having the opportunity to produce a new recruit. However, according to the rules of the Iron House, you cannot avoid receiving compensation, so please set the value yourself.”
The idea was to pay as much as you want to give.
What is the importance of wealth to an old man who has not much time left to live?
It was simply because the principle of neutrality maintained by the iron head would be broken if compensation was not received.
“Then can I just give you one nyang?”
Cheolwoonbi, the matriarch of Cheolwoongbang.
As the greatest master in the central region nodded without hesitation, Yu Seol looked at his grandfather with excitement. It was to send a message.
– We got it!
– guy. These are items that will now become family heirlooms, but isn’t the value being underestimated too much? If the heirloom made by melting down the Fire Dragon Spear were worth a single coin, our ancestors would come out of their graves.
-Grandpa, you don’t have any money.
You even know the circumstances of your own pockets. His sharp eyesight was unusual.
However, Yu Jin-san did not come here without any thought.
– I don’t have it, but you have a valuable treasure.
– My treasure…?
When the grandfather nodded, Yu Seol’s expression became gloomy.
Yamyeongju, a gift from Shaolin Temple.
This gem, which shines brighter the darker it is, was dozens of times more expensive than gold of the same size.
– I’ll get you something better later. Just calculate it with that.
– Hmph…
Yuseol’s hand trembled as he rummaged around in my arms and escaped. It would be a waste to spit out his treasure, Yamyeongju.
But there was no other way.
“…I’ll give you this.”
Yamyeongju was worth enough to purchase dozens of expensive Iron Guard weapons.
As expected, Cheolwoonbi seemed satisfied. This was due to the fact that his skills, not his values, were recognized.
“I will risk my life to create the masterpiece of a lifetime, so please trust me and leave it to me.”
He could feel his heart pounding at the superhuman sensation of the rumor.
My heart was pounding uncontrollably.
He immediately started preparing for work, as if he didn’t want to waste any time.
Even his solemnity was visible in his back as he headed toward the furnace, clutching the Fire Dragon God Spear.
And the remaining craftsmen looked at each other with a mixture of pride and worry.
“Uncle, this is the first time I’ve seen my grandfather on fire like that.”
“It has to be that way. Even if you die now, you will have no regrets.”
“But is it okay to blindly melt Jin-gyu’s spear? Do you know who these kids are?…”
“Since when did our iron head pick out customers and receive requests? “I just want to respect my father’s decision.”
And it was the principle of the head of the iron family not to ask about the client’s history.
Since they do not know the information that the head of the family received from Yu Jin-san, they are worried about what might happen.
But all it took was a little worry. The reason their reaction was calm was because they had a part of faith.
This is because Iron House, which regularly presented weapons to the country, had a strong background as a bureaucrat.
At that time, Cheolwoong’s gaze turned to Yuseol again.
“This is the first time I’ve seen my father on fire like that. “If you wait a little longer, a very nice window will be completed.”
“Wow… I can’t wait to see you. “How long do I have to wait?”
Cheolwoong answered with a voice full of pride.
“In this world, my father is called by the stage name ‘God Hand.’ It means you have the hand of God. “I have never failed to refine it so far, so it will probably be completed within ten days.”
In order to create a luxury product, the process of melting and remanufacturing must be repeated countless times until the smelting is successful. This is because even small errors are not tolerated.
The period that Cheolwoong predicted was short enough to be close to a miracle.
However, when a child waits for a gift, one day is like a year.
“Ten days…”
Yu Seol didn’t know. If he, who has the hands of God, can achieve it in 10 days, it would take an ordinary craftsman decades to achieve it.
And Cheolwoong interpreted Yuseol’s mutterings with a different meaning.
“Yes, it only takes ten days. This is possible because he can make quite a few luxury items in half a day. “Anyway, it would be better to stay here and wait until the window is completed.”
How could I spend 10 boring days in such a remote place?
However, it is impossible to leave the heirloom and leave the place.
Yuseol, who received information from Mt. Yujin, reluctantly nodded.
“…all right.”
One of the craftsmen took the lead and showed the children where to stay.
“Follow me this way. “It won’t be inconvenient to stay for a few days.”
Perhaps because it was a family with specialized skills, the structure of the manor was a bit different from that of the Murim family.
There were no large, grand buildings, but small, neatly built pavilions were clustered together.
At that time, the hill of Yujin Mountain, which I was slowly walking behind, turned to the left.
This is because he felt someone’s gaze staring at him.
“…?”
A girl with her hair in two pigtails was sticking out her face through the slightly open door of a small building
on the left .
The child who was looking at Mt. Eugene blushed when their eyes met and quickly hid.
bang-!
‘He’s a funny guy.’
The father-in-law who was leading the way laughed at the sight.
“She is brother Cheolwoong’s daughter. “You better be careful because you’re a troublemaker and no one can stop you.”
At that moment, Jinsan Yu told a joke to his granddaughter walking next to him.
– Just like you.
– no. I don’t cause trouble.
– When you were a baby. I don’t think I remember peeing on my grandfather’s back and crying for food.
– I never did that!
Yu Seol pursed his lips and vehemently denied it.
The smile never left Yu Jin-san’s face, as if he was having a lot of fun teasing his granddaughter.
After laughing quietly for a while, he calmed down and asked.
– Why don’t you just become friends with that guy?
– No, I don’t need friends.
– why? It’s fun to hang out with your peers.
– I will only play with my grandpa.
– Still, it’s reassuring to have at least one friend with whom you can share your joys and sorrows.
Yu Jin-san looked like he couldn’t understand his granddaughter’s unwillingness to listen.
However, it was impossible to force someone to make friends.
After a while, we arrived at our destination and the craftsman who guided us opened the door.
Although it was only a cozy room, it seemed to be sufficient for two children.
“Stay here. “I’ll tell my aunts, so if you need anything, come to the pavilion you see over there.”
“Thank you.”
When the person in charge of guidance disappeared, Yoo Seol looked around in the distance and asked.
“Can I go somewhere?”
Are you saying that you are suddenly going somewhere alone?
A look of puzzlement appeared on Jin-san Yu’s face.
“suddenly?”
“I want to train…”
It was as expected. Since I haven’t been able to properly practice for a while, I can’t help but feel itchy.
There was a sparsely populated meadow and a flat mountain not far away, so there would be ample space for training.
It seemed more meaningful than waiting for the window to be completed here.
“Instead, you should not go far away and do it in a place where no one is watching.”
“okay. “I will learn the Hundred Steps Divine Fist and show it to my grandfather.”
Yu Jin-san asked, pretending to be surprised.
“Are you really going to test your power on me again?”
“Hi-Hi.”
Seeing that he didn’t say no made him nervous, but the grandfather wanted his only granddaughter to look pretty no matter what she did.
Jin-san Yu, who was stroking the child’s head, was shocked.
Because someone was peeking from behind again.
“…?”
It was the kid from a little while ago.
He hid behind the pavilion and watched, but when his eyes met, he quickly hid.
I felt uncomfortable, but there was no reason to worry about the child.
He waved his hand at the grandfather as if he wasn’t really interested in the rumors.
“I’ll come back then.”
“OK. “If you get hungry while training, come back right away.”
“huh!”
Yu Seol seemed to be in a hurry and quickly disappeared.
The small shadow that flew like a bird over the roof of the pavilion suddenly disappeared from sight.
Yu Jin-san, who was left alone, went into the room and lay down.
He clasped his hands behind his head and thought for a moment.
‘It’s a hundred treasures divine power… It would be useful if you learn it.’
I had already taught my granddaughter all of the family’s martial arts skills, but there was nothing suitable in martial arts.
Most of the fighting techniques were learned on one’s own through sparring with Hohyeon’s warriors, but
it would be of great help if one learned the Baekbo Shinken, which could be used both at close range and at a long distance.
I wanted to follow along and learn it myself, but someone had to stay and watch the process of making heirlooms.
‘It’s not easy to just wait like this.’
Is it because I am alone for a long time? Time seemed to stop and boredom increased.
He, who had been lying down silently, got up from his seat.
His steps were heading back to the blacksmith shop. The idea was to relieve boredom by providing some eye candy.
bang-! bang-! Tatang-!
Even though the sun was slowly setting, the loud noise continued.
If I got too close, I could be disturbed, so I sat down somewhere far away.
‘Is this what the famous people look like? ‘All of them are amazing.’
The tools they held seemed to have souls in them.
It was when I was just staring at it without thinking.
Someone came and sat down next to Jin-san Yu.
It was the girl with her hair split into two pigtails.
“what is your name?”
At most, the child appeared to be around the age of my granddaughter.
A guy like Tottori speaks informally from the first time he meets me.
This would have been something I couldn’t have even dreamed of before the anti-romanization process.
“mountain.”
“San? My name is Aryeon. Cheol Aryeon. “I’m eight years old. How old are you?”
It is impossible to explain it in detail to a child who does not know what anti-rohwandong is.
Yu Jin-san looked somewhere else and muttered as if he was annoyed.
“I don’t know exactly because I forgot about it at some point. “It’s probably about ten times more than you.”
“Fuhi! fun.”
Aryeon thought it was a joke and giggled as if it was funny.
Seeing that, Yu Jin-san sighed and waved his hands.
“Grandpa, I’m not old enough to play games with you. “Go away and play.”
At that moment, Aryeon clutched her stomach and burst into laughter.
“Fuhihi. you are really funny “Where are you from?”
“I came from a very far away place.”
“But who is that guy from earlier?”
“….”
It felt like I was being interrogated.
Why on earth are you bothering me so much when I don’t even know you in person?
At that time, Aryeon put her hand on his shoulder and urged him.
“Say it quickly. That girl who looked pretty earlier is your sister, right? yes?”
“You don’t have to know.”
“Then maybe…?”
Eugene San looked around.
I’m thinking about running away before it gets even more annoying.
But even if I left this place, I had no place to go.
As Aryeon continued to shake his shoulders, he reluctantly answered.
“Think what you want.”
“I knew it.”
“what…?”
Aryeon stood up from her seat and placed both hands on her waist.
After glaring at him for a long time, he turned his head and walked away.
Yu Jin-san shook his head as he watched the child retreat as if he was upset.
“What a strange guy.”
