The Barbarian Writer of a Martial Arts Visual Novel Chapter 258

EP.258

“Mangeum Jeonju is waiting. Please follow me.”

I never thought that as soon as I unpacked my luggage in Wuhan, I would come from Mangeum Battlefield. It’s not like I was waiting for it to arrive. As expected, the fact that he came from Daseogak, which was run by a close friend of Mangeum Jeonju, was of great help.

I followed the man who introduced himself as the commander of Mangeum Battlefield.

“Aren’t we going to Mangeum Battlefield?”

Mangeum Battlefield was in the downtown area, but the road I’m taking now is in the opposite direction.

“We are planning to take you to the mansion where Lord Mangeum Jeon resides. However, if you are coming from Daseogak, I understand that Sojeo with the Tang clan surname, not Confucius with the Kang clan surname, should come…”

“Hwarin is recuperating at Sicheondang House.”

Normally, Hwarin should have come, not me. The commander-in-chief’s suspicions were natural.

“sorry. They forget that I am older. “Is it true that you may have to stay at Sacheondanga for a long time due to illness?”

The Commander-in-Chief seemed to have finally remembered it. He leaned down slightly and asked me in an embarrassed tone.

“haha! “I don’t know where you heard that rumor, but you don’t know that it’s a human thing.”

I said 10 years, but it can change depending on my reputation and Hwarin’s training. I shrugged my shoulders and spoke with the same expression as a family member mentioning a critically ill patient who has a high chance of making a full recovery.

“Hmm. As expected…. yes. “You don’t know that it’s a human thing.”

As expected, the Commander-in-Chief’s voice contained a tone of speaking. what? You seem satisfied with my answer.

Come to think of it, how did you know that Hwarin was staying at Tangga for a long time?

I followed the commander-in-chief with doubts that could not be resolved.

——–

“I will deliver the news to Mangeum Jeonju. “Please wait in the garden for a moment.”

I quietly looked around the garden while the general informed Mangeum Jeonju of my arrival.

How much did you spend on the garden?

Decorating a garden is often called a simple luxury. If you want to invest money, you can invest an infinite amount of money, but unless an expert notices, it will only be prettier than other gardens.

The garden where Mangeum Jeonju resides is like a business card that may seem luxurious to the general public, but when a business card fanatic looks at it, they are shocked at the money spent. To a non-expert, it looks elegant, but to an expert, it looks like it cost hundreds of millions of dollars.

The father of Joseon’s richest man, Kang Yun-ho, also built a garden like this. There was no way I wouldn’t have known.

“If you go in, you will find Mangeum Jeonju.”

“thank you.”

I carefully walked through the door that the Commander-in-Chief opened.

As I walked away from the commander, I took a deep breath so as not to be heard.

With just one word, you can pay off a thousand-nyang debt.

Can I do it?

If you don’t do it, you will have to lose your sense of purpose. Instead of wondering if you can do it, you have to do it. I have to do it.

I made a promise and arrived at the room where Mangeum Jeonju was waiting.

“Are you here?”

An old man with a sharp expression who reacts when I pretend to be popular.

Mangeum Jeonju was not looking at me with the same face as last year, but was trimming the bonsai.

“long time no see. “Jangno.”

I cautiously walked forward and politely greeted Mangeum Jeonju.

“He did something funny to my grandson.”

Was it right from the start?

Mangeum Jeonju still did not look in my direction and spoke to me.

What should I say?

I committed a mortal sin. Please forgive me. Please forgive my debt. I can never repay that money.

No, I don’t plan on going out like that.

“If you are bitten by a crazy dog, you can sit down and cry or run away, but someone has to be prepared to be bitten by the dog again and pick up a stick.”

Saying something is wrong does not solve the problem.

No, rather, it would be like admitting my fault. If that happens, at best, they will be forced to pay off the entire debt instead of delaying the seizure.

I had no intention of compromising to pay a debt that did not have to be paid.

‘If he was really angry about his only grandson, there was no way he would bring it up as a topic the moment we met.’

If he went on a rampage in an angry tone, I was thinking of coming up with another plan. But you spoke in an indifferent tone from the beginning. I can see that they are trying to kill my spirit right from the start.

I have no intention of letting you suffer.

I should be proud to say I did a good job. Your house was less educated. I took care of the dog that bit me. Let’s come out strong.

“Bogs. “It seems like you’re telling me to listen.”

Smile?

Mangeum Jeonju laughed while touching the orchid as if it was ridiculous. A smile that says look at this guy rather than a bad mood.

If I stimulated it and it didn’t go away, it’s a good sign.

“If a parent’s love is too much, they may not even notice that their child is going astray (莫知其子之惡). “Even under tiger-like parents, bastards emerge, so I hope this will be a good lesson for them to become tigers.”

Please educate your children well. Before I realize it after getting hit by someone else and seeing the blood.

“Hehehe! okay. I also heard the whole story about this incident. “I knew he was going to get scolded for being such a bastard!”

Mangeum Jeonju seemed to like what I said, smiled arrogantly and finally looked in my direction.

“Is that so?”

I internally breathed a small sigh of relief.

thank god. The first hurdle has been passed…

“But that’s not a reason to look after the debt.”

Mangeum Jeonju stopped laughing and glared at me with a sharp gaze.

“….”

I’m saying that I didn’t plan this out of bad feelings toward my only grandson. Did they really do this for money?

“Tell me why I need to look after you.”

Mangeum Jeonju gave me a look that said he knew why you came here.

I swallowed dry saliva quietly and faced the gaze that seemed to pierce me.

It is unfair to take on debts that do not have to be repaid. How do you repay this kind of money? This is ridiculous. A gaze that blocks every word in advance.

‘You have to speak well here.’

It is not a good idea to question whether the debt I owe is justified. This is something I already knew and did. The opponent is Mangeum Battlefield. It has the power and authority to make any unreasonable debt justifiable.

So what should I do?

Let’s think quickly. Combine the information you have.

Information on Mangeumjeonju. What I know is true. Combine it. There is also information I just obtained. A humble luxury. Pay attention to what others think. A card I can use. Try expanding the cards you have prepared.

What is the best card among them?

“It is because I am carrying on the spirit of Lord Baekjiajang.”

I declared to Mangeum Jeonju in a confident tone.

“You are carrying on the spirit of the Baek family?”

Mangeumjeonju’s eyebrow twitched for a moment.

Mangeum Jeonju. The world’s opinion is that if you prick someone, not a single drop of blood will come out. So should I give up? no. The only way to do this is to prick the area where blood will come out.

And that too using cards that only I can use.

“I believe you have heard about what I did when I came back to Uichang.”

“I heard that you hired poor writers as employees.”

Mangeum Jeonju nodded. Fortunately, I know.

“The first thing I thought about after solving the party’s problems was how I should live from now on.”

“Have you thought about how to live from now on?”

They are curious about me. It was a green light that the hand I drew was a good hand.

“If I had just thought about making myself happy, I wouldn’t have thought that way. But it didn’t end there; I wanted to inherit the will of Lord Baek.”

The good deeds that the head of the Baek family did before his death. I wanted to continue that good deed.

Actually, I just needed an employee who could raise my reputation level. Isn’t packaging important in everything?

In the end, how others see me is important.

“Isn’t that something to think about after paying off your debt?”

“How could a merchant be afraid of incurring debt and hesitate to plan a big project? “Money comes naturally if you act with great intentions.”

In modern terms, Mangeum Electronics is an industry that lies between banking and private lending.

A merchant that Mangeum Jeonju views favorably is a customer who ultimately succeeds in big business by incurring debt and creates larger debt and continues to repay it.

Then, let me become a merchant that Mangeum Jeonju is satisfied with.

“What is the big meaning?”

“I believe that business is not about leaving a legacy, but about leaving a legacy.”

I spoke confidently, like an upright merchant with a huge pillar of faith in my heart.

“It’s similar to what that guy from Baekga used to say to me.”

“I said something similar to the president of the Uichang Literary Association, and he was surprised.”

Let’s add a few words to appeal that although it is my belief, it coincidentally is the same as Baek Jang-ju’s belief.

‘In front of Mangeum Jeonju, I become not a black-haired barbarian, but the incarnation of Baek Jia-ju.’

Aim for the weakest part of Mangeumjeonju. Rather than robbing the black-haired barbarian of his money, he sets it up to trample on those who carry on the will of his close friend.

Mangeum Jeonju also opened his mouth as if speechless, but then looked at me and smiled.

Did it work?

“Even if that were the case, it’s a lot of money. “There is no reason for me to take care of the debt.”

Mangeum Jeonju spoke firmly. Lifting and dropping people. Even if you say it like this, it doesn’t work. Is this it?

Then there is a way.

“If you really want to pay off all of that debt, I would rather give up Daseo-gak.”

Let’s camp out in multiples.

“Are you going to give up Daseogak?”

Mangeum Jeonju opened his eyes wide as if he was surprised and asked me.

“yes. Daseogak is the wings to spread my will. But if it turns out to be shackles instead of wings, I’d rather start over penniless. “Even though I am penniless, I am confident that I will succeed again by inheriting the spirit of Baek Family Lord.”

It’s Daseogak’s debt anyway. Wouldn’t it be over if I give you just one Daseogak? Rather than repay that money, I would rather give up Daseogak.

The person I am now when I first started running Daseogak is different. Now I have people, connections, and money.

Plus, Hopil’s reputation.

It may be difficult if I give up on Daseogak, but do you think I won’t be able to get up again? If I give up my debt, isn’t it a huge loss? He confidently spoke to Mangeum Jeonju in this tone of voice.

“Heulheul.” “The world’s most humble person trembles with humility.”

“Did you know….”

Mr. Merchant Association owner. You were one of the few people who knew my identity, but you told Mangeum Jeonju.

“I win and eat my grandson like a newborn wringing his hands, write words that will make the world cry, and use commercial tactics that make people cry. Moreover, a person who had the courage and wisdom to go to the Tang family and return alive would give up Daseogak because he did not want to repay a single debt. “Do you think I’ll believe that?”

I think the merchant association owner treated me too well.

“That’s why I’m standing here.”

“That’s why you’re here.”

It’s not Mangeum Jeonju for nothing.

Noya Jang spoke to me with a smile as if she had noticed my trick. A smile of victory. It’s an expression that tells you to just admit it and feel comfortable.

But Jang Noh.

I didn’t prepare that much.

“no. “I have come to carry out the will of Lord Baekgajang and do my final duty.”

“The final moral?”

“The only blood relative of Lord Baek. “As his only granddaughter and son-in-law, I am standing here to try everything I can and then give up.”

I tried, but Noya Jang made me give up. I express myself as standing for the completion of that process.

What will be the future that Mangeum Jeonju imagines?

Although I followed the will of Lord Baekgajang, I was forced to give up and start over again, and Mangeum Jeonju became a piece of trash in the world who robbed his friend of his wealth.

Did Mangeum Jeonju also understand it?

Did you think it was a swindler? Mangeum Jeonju also narrowed his eyes and looked at me, then burst into laughter.

“ha ha ha! If this guy from the Baek family were next to me, he would have said that my granddaughter has taken care of a son-in-law. okay. “Are you really confident that you can succeed penniless?”

“I just do it if I have to.”

“Then that’s it. “Take it.”

Mangeum Jeonju threw a bundle of paper from her arms to me as if she was ready.

“chit?”

The piece of paper Mangeum Jeonju handed over was a slip with a large sum written on it.

“It’s not a slip, it’s my test.”

It’s a test. Let’s read the slip slowly, Kang Yun-ho. I saw three letters of my name written on it.

With the clause that all of Daseogak’s debts will be transferred to me after I use the voucher and the debt repayment date passes.

“What is this?”

“Pawn your life. “Take that voucher and bring money from Wuhan, not from Uichang.”

Mangeum Jeonju spoke to me like an ultimatum, as if he had no intention of making any more concessions.

Now I understand. Was it forced scouting?

The seizure of Daseogak did nothing but bring me here.

This is in line with Mangeum Bookstore Jeon Gil-san’s Hopil Scout offer. Is it a little different this time in that we also want to show off the aspects of Kang Yun-ho, a merchant?

In the end, it means that they will transfer the debt to me and tie me up.

“Why do I have to do that?”

There’s no reason for me to accept that.

In this case, it would be better to trust one printing company and start over.

Did you sense my true intentions?

Mangeum Jeonju smiled with repentance and told me the reason for giving me the voucher.

“If you pass my test and satisfy me, I will forgive all of Daseogak’s debts.”

An offer you can’t refuse.
