The Barbarian Writer of a Martial Arts Visual Novel Chapter 260

EP.260

“If you want to repay your debt, Mangeum Jeonju told you to do business? If you fail, you take on all the debt? Did you agree to that again?”

When Ha-yeon Lim heard about what happened with me and Mangeum Jeon-ju, she could not keep her mouth shut.

“The debt of Daseogak was something that would take a year to repay, no matter how much Tang family money was sold. “It’s a story worth talking about if you pay off all your debt.”

If you think about it, the test presented by Mangeum Jeonju is a loss to Mangeum Jeonju.

If I win, the big debt disappears in an instant, so even if I lose, I will only get back to the bottom line.

“I know because I looked at the ledger, but… Should I go back to Uichang right now and bring good luck to the Tang family?”

“It’s not possible to have a good party. “That was the condition of Mangeumjeonju.”

“Then what?”

Ha-yeon Lim asked me in a worried voice.

“I have some time to plan a business. “I plan to think about it for a while.”

Should I start working as a madam again? The idea is to turn the party song into a play and sell tickets. If you team up with Lim Ha-yeon, it could be a pretty interesting play.

Should I sell medicine for additional profit? If it is said to be Dangga’s medicine, it might sell like hot cakes even to the people of Uichang.

Of course, you will be repatriated immediately to the party. Even if I could sell books along with it, I don’t think I would be able to satisfy Mangeum Jeonju, who told me to do business.

“Well… what about my novel…”

“Hmm?”

“I can sell my novel and make a profit.”

Ha-yeon Lim spoke to me with a firm expression, as if she had made a big decision.

“Hahaha.”

“Why are you laughing! “You never know!”

Was it because the big decision came back with a smile? Lim Ha-yeon’s face turned red and she spoke as if she were embarrassed.

“I wasn’t laughing at you. Don’t misunderstand. The explanation wasn’t enough. “They said you shouldn’t open a bookstore.”

I laughed because it was so amazing.

“Ugh! “You should tell me earlier…”

Ha-yeon Lim pouted her mouth and grumbled as if she had said it for no reason.

“Hahaha. “I can’t do well in Wuhan, where I have no connections or connections, so let’s think about it together.”

Before returning to my guesthouse, I felt like I had to take the test alone in an isolation center. Still, I think it’s worth doing because I think there are people who care and can help.

I looked at her like an adventurer who had recruited a dependable priest for buffs.

“W, try hard.”

Was the gaze burdensome? Ha-yeon Lim avoided my gaze and nodded.

When will the food be served?

“older brother. “I have done the work entrusted to me.”

As I sat at the guest table waiting for my food, I heard something familiar: Korean.

When I look back, I see a man with black hair. I think he’s a Korean who begged from Brother Ahn before entering the guest house.

“okay. “If I brought it well, what about the money?”

“Here it is. But brother, that…”

The man could not raise his head to the owner of the inn, looking at the nose-draining dogs that looked like his children.

“Tsk. “I don’t even have the money to pay for this much trouble… I’ll make you some soup, so just feed the kids and go.”

“thank you. older brother!”

The owner of the inn, Mr. Ahn, a Korean, seems to be generous. I guess they were trying to feed the man who came begging under the pretext of running a small errand.

By the way, are there any Koreans in Wuhan?

“I guess there are a lot of Koreans like you here. “It seemed like Koreans kept coming.”

Ha-yeon Lim whispered in my ear as if she had read my thoughts.

“Since this is an inn run by a Joseon person, they probably come to eat Korean food.”

“It seemed like people came to beg rather than customers.”

“Hmm.”

This is a world where people with black hair are discriminated against. Now that I think about it, another Korean I saw while passing by looked surprised when he saw the clothes I was wearing. Is everyone living a difficult life?

“Little brother Kang! haha! “What are you whispering about and talking about?”

Brother Ahn put the food down on the table and smiled arrogantly.

“It’s not like that!”

“You’re so shy, even at night?”

With a sly look on his face, Brother Ahn asked me in Korean so that Im Ha-yeon could not understand.

“It’s very rough at night.”

How he cried in bed at night.

“Hahaha! “I think so.”

“What do you say in Korean?!”

“They say Hayeon Sojeo is the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen in Wuhan. “I also agreed.”

“I don’t think so…”

Im Ha-yeon looked suspicious, but glanced at me and didn’t question me further, wondering if the compliment on my appearance put pressure on my shoulders.

“Brother Ahn. “I think there are a lot of Koreans in Wuhan.”

I asked Brother Ahn, who had not yet left.

“You know my brother. Because there are so many midfielders in Wuhan. “Even Koreans like us can make money doing odd jobs.”

It seems that there are quite a few Koreans in Wuhan who do hard work.

“uh?! Korean? “Do you know Brother Ahn?”

A man who had run errands and ate soup with his children approached us.

“aha. yes. “He’s from the same neighborhood, and I met him by chance today.”

“That’s right! Our brother Ahn. “He is leading a Korean gathering here in Wuhan.”

“Brother Ahn?”

“He is a rare person among Koreans who achieved success in Wuhan.”

“Hmm. “This person!”

The owner of the inn laughed, tapping the man on the shoulder as if he was embarrassed. The guest room I was staying in was certainly shabby, but it was nothing to take lightly.

This is Wuhan, Hubei Province. It is neither a place with a trade route with Joseon nor a coastal area close to Joseon. A place where people with circumstances like me wander around.

Running a guest house in a place like that would be like a poor foreign worker in Korea owning a restaurant in the middle of Seoul.

“Hey. My brother is successful in Wuhan. Now that I have settled down in Uichang, I see that we, the people of Namwon, have everything together.”

I joked with a smile on my face to praise Brother Ahn.

“Brother! You said you run a small bookstore in Uichang, right? That’s really interesting. “What else do Namwon people have together?”

“Isn’t this all because we Namwon people grew up receiving the energy of Jiri Mountain?”

I spoke in a serious tone, like an elementary school student who believes in the school song of a school in Namwon.

“Hehehe! “Yes, I don’t know about the Jungwon guys, but our Jiri Mountain is magical!”

“haha! “I think that’s why the people of Namwon are able to live well even when they go to other places!”

I was chatting happily like a Jiri mountain swordsman who had been living in Namwon for three generations but was wandering the world after being tricked into gambling.

“Ha… But I think I’ll have to close down the business soon.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“How did you come to this point after starting as Jeomsoy in Jungwon and learning Suksui in Joseon? “The guest is young….”

“Are you having trouble doing business?”

It looks like there aren’t many customers.

“Because it’s run by a black guy. There are some things people avoid. Still, since it was a guesthouse in the middle of a residential area, people who didn’t want to cook at home came to visit and were able to make ends meet, but those bastards… Come on in!”

The owner of the inn greeted the opened door without even explaining the reason for closing.

uh? That person.

This is the person I saw at the port in the morning. It’s Hao Mundo from Simun.

“Simunhyangju is calling.”

I haven’t even had a spoonful of food yet.

—————————

There is no branch leader in Wuhan Haomen.

Instead, the local lords who lead each group of Haomun gather together and decide on major and minor matters. Each branch in Hubei Province operates independently while receiving orders from the local lords.

This was because the Haomun was not a sect created from above like other sects, but a sect created by a group of people such as Jeomsoi courtesans, coachmen, thieves and gamblers.

We passed through a huge restaurant, which is hard to find even in Uichang, and were guided into a luxuriously decorated room with Simun incense sticks.

They have carved all kinds of imaginary animals on the pillars, so it looks like they are making a lot of money.

When we opened the door to the room where Simoon Hyang-ju was with a nervous face, we were greeted by a friendly-looking man who did not have the usual grumpy face of a Safa man, but who somehow looked like he was running a franchise restaurant and would not give in to his wife’s scolding and become the head of the engineering team when he got home. welcomed.

“You bastards are crazy. Attacking a member of the same family?”

Simun Hyangju looked at the information taken from the umbrella and crumpled the paper as if his teeth were grinding.

“There is no conclusive evidence, but the circumstantial evidence is clear.”

Daomun’s Rebellion. At this level, it is worth using as a joker for Lim Ha-yeon.

“You bastards from the domain will eventually come out like this…. That’s right. Acting Branch Manager Kwak. “What do you want with such good information?”

“Hayeon Sojeo was just tricked by Domun. “I hope you can help me escape from my status as a runaway courtesan.”

“no.”

It was immediately rejected.

“Why?”

“May I ask the reason?”

You pretend to give me what I want and then immediately reject it. If there is no reason, the attitude is too light for a group leader.

“There is a reason why the thieves were such a bastard, but if you rush into this, it will be a repeat of the incident from 10 years ago.”

Are you talking about the bloody uprising in Haomun?

“Are you saying you’re going to do something that never happened?”

“Doing something like this also means that you are preparing to get caught. Without conclusive evidence, this side could be defeated. “Right now, the best thing to do is keep an eye on the thieves and see if they stop doing anything.”

“Are you saying that the Hayeon Sojeo problem is impossible to solve?”

In the end, since there is no clear evidence, does this mean that we cannot see blood between members of the same family?

“I’m gnashing my teeth at the door, looking for this kid. “If we intervene in an ambiguous situation and put the other person on guard, it’s worse than not doing anything at all.”

“But Usan Haomun got hit!”

“You can either complain to the Gi-moon kids or argue with the Do-moon.”

Despite Lim Ha-yeon’s earnest voice, Simun Hyang-ju’s voice was indifferent.

“How can there be no way?”

“Hmm. Bandora… I said it was Kang Yun-ho. you. “Did you do it with that bitch?”

“What are you talking about?”

Lim Ha-yeon’s voice trembled as if she was embarrassed by the unexpected question.

“It’s definitely not like that.”

“I beg your pardon?”

why are you looking at me

“Hehe. This is that kind of cider. good. Out of respect for Branch Manager Kwak, I will continue to protect him for the time being. But you have to do the rest, Kang Yunho.”

“Are you saying that?”

“Kang Yun-ho from Daseo-gak. The best bookstore in Uichang and the owner of Daru. I admit that Branch Manager Kwak sent a very good talent to Shimoon. But that doesn’t mean I approve of you.”

“What do you mean by recognition?”

“It means they are not my family. So give me a reason to help you. Show your skills. Then, I will do my best to tidy up the women in my family.”

The conversation with Simunhyangju ended there.

—————-

“There are so many people who want to see what abilities this guy and that guy have.”

Should I at least show a status window?

“Status window! Saaaangangtaechang!! Status!”

If I feel like it, I want to show it. There was no way something like that would appear.

“What do you mean? Are you sick?!”

Ha-yeon Lim showed up late after finishing her errand and asked with a surprised look on her face.

“Goo-gu-gu!”

“You guys don’t approach and stay away.”

“Gugu…”

Lim Ha-yeon said a word to the dozens of Jeongu, and the Jeongu flew into the sky as if they were disappointed.

“I was so frustrated that I screamed something. “By the way, where do these Jeonseogu come from?”

You didn’t bring a jeonseogu when you came here.

“These are the kids who spent endless days at Umbrella. “I gave them back so I could take them, but I’m wondering if I should release them since they will become ordinary pigeons when they return to nature anyway.”

If I take all of that with me, I think I’ll become Pigeon to Mom instead of Muyoung Shintu.

“Aren’t they kind of spiritual creatures?”

“On rare occasions, children like Gugu are born who understand speech, but most of them only play the role of strong and smart Jeonseogu. That’s why we don’t even give it a separate name.”

Is it like a mass-produced spirit object?

I nodded and turned to the guesthouse where Im Ha-yeon and I were staying.

“It is the ability to be recognized as a member of the Shimoon family.”

From Mangeum Battlefield to Haomen Gate. I haven’t even completed the listening test yet, but it feels like I’m being forced to move on to the next question.

“Don’t think about it difficultly, just think about Daseogak. “If it doesn’t work out…”

Lim Ha-yeon trailed off as if her lips couldn’t leave her mouth. I’m about to give up again.

“We will solve both of them. “Don’t think about giving up, just help me out.”

In times like this, it’s good to simply cheer, but it’s important to appeal that you are needed. Because you can gain the courage to stand on your own two feet while holding the hand of others.

I told Lim Ha-yeon not to worry.

“…. Then you said that….”

“Stop it, you guys!!! “Our store is ruined!!!”

Ha-yeon Lim’s words were interrupted by a sound coming from afar.

“Is it a sound coming from the guesthouse where we are staying?”

————-

“What is this?”

When I ran to the guest house, the inside was already a mess.

“Oh my gosh!”

When I turned my gaze, I saw Mr. Ahn, the owner of the inn, wailing loudly. What the hell is going on?

“Hmm. Owner. “Just pay for the repairs.”

“Why do we always fight in our guesthouse!”

“I first saw blood here, so shouldn’t I pay for it here too?”

“It’s not because there isn’t much risk of being harmed even if you break it!!!”

The Murim people fought in the guesthouse.

Inside the guesthouse, five or six martial artists with swords and other martial artists who were already dead were seen.

I guess this wasn’t even the first time this had happened.

“The black-haired barbarian is so angry! hey! Take out some money! “Keep this repaired until the next time we come to fight!”

“You can’t even buy a chair with this money!”

“What is he saying now. let’s go. “After all, it’s best to fight in a guesthouse.”

“That’s right!”

Regardless of whether the guesthouse owner looked at the martial artist with blank eyes or not, he left the guesthouse with a happy face.

“Brother, what is this?”

I asked Brother Ahn, who was carrying the severed limbs of a martial artist with sagging shoulders to a corner.

“My younger brother is closing down his business as of today. “I can no longer stay at the guest house because of the martial people.”

Brother Ahn turned his head in the opposite direction and trembled his shoulders, as if he didn’t want to show his crying face to his younger neighbor.

Was the reason why the business had to close down because of the martial arts people fighting in the inn? Anyway, the martial arts people are not helpful in life.

This is why they say that the job you should avoid the most in martial arts is serving as a guest.

Stay for a moment?

For a moment, I assemble the problem and conditions in my head.

What am I lacking? Network in Wuhan. Ointment. What should I do? A test of poetry. The test of the Mangeum battlefield.

What do I have? What can you try? What can I do to my advantage?

okay.

“older brother.”

There is a way to solve my problem all at once.

“why?”

“I will take over this guesthouse.”
