EP.264
“Giosugu (氣悟秀鳩)? An outstanding pigeon that has realized its energy? “What on earth is that?”
The messenger asked, looking at the white dove with blue feathers on its head that his friend was holding.
I can’t believe I realized it. Do you mean to use martial arts on the subject of pigeons?
“This guy is in the dark about the rumors! “No matter how busy I am with my job as a messenger, when I return to Wuhan, I need to know what’s going on in the world.”
“I can’t believe I lived without knowing about Giosugu, which is so magical and powerful that it can be said to have enlightened me. Tsk tsk.”
The friends shook their heads and clicked their tongues as if they were pitiful.
“I need to explain what a pigeon is so you can understand.”
“That’s why you can’t claim that you don’t have any sense. Just stay still! Today I will show you a new world of food. Let’s see. “Where is it?”
Pyosa’s friend, holding a pigeon, looked around.
“Are you looking for the menu? “It’s here!”
Another friend immediately noticed what he was looking for and threw a wooden menu from the corner.
“menu?”
Pisa frowned, unable to understand the situation.
no. Isn’t the menu that Jeomsoi presents at the guesthouse? Do these friends have kleptomania? Why did you bring the menu from the guesthouse all the way here?
I couldn’t understand the sign at all.
“Since this friend is living, let’s order four pieces of black bean paste and one sweet and sour pork.”
“I like Jjambbong.”
“It’s a hassle to clean up. “Let’s order four pieces of jjajang.”
The man wrote something on a piece of paper with a fine pen, then opened the window and let the ghoul go flying out.
“Now take a seat and wait!”
“What on earth is this…”
Pyo Sa was unable to understand the situation at all as he was dragged to his seat by his friend.
Giosugu. What on earth is that? It looks like Jeon Seo-gu, something only Pyo-du-nim uses in Pyo-guk. What does that have to do with food?
It’s not like the swallow that brings food to its owner when it’s hungry, which I heard about in an old story as a child.
Are these friends really going to starve me just because I’m late? When I’m hungry, I can’t turn my head. Are you trying to make yourself a hero today? Or are these friends making fun of themselves?
While Pyo Sa was lost in an unresolved question, there was a knock on the door.
“This is No. 53 Giosuguro, the place where you order 4 pieces of black bean paste and sweet and sour pork, right?”
A Korean wearing a hat knocked on the door of the room where the four men were.
“Here here! “Bring it here.”
Pyo Sa’s friend opened the door, welcomed the delivery man, and guided him to a table where he could place the food.
At this point, Pisa was also able to understand the situation.
“Did you just order food from Jeon Seo-gu?”
Pisa asked in a voice full of astonishment.
“If you pretend, you pretend. “Have you still not noticed?”
“What nonsense…”
Pisa couldn’t keep her mouth shut.
Ordering food from Jeon Seo-gu. It was something that even I had never heard of, having visited not only infinite but numerous castles.
“Where should I put the food down?”
“Put it down here on the table.”
The black-haired delivery man placed the unusual-looking black box on top, lifted the vertical wooden board, and began taking out the food from inside.
“The bag is special?! “This is my first time seeing something like this.”
It’s a black box with a handle. The interior space is partitioned like a drawer. You can even take out food there.
The messenger looked around the wooden bag with curious eyes.
“It was made by our guest. “It’s called an iron bag.”
“Iron bag? “Do you mean to carry around a metal bag?”
If it were iron, it would weigh a lot. Are these Koreans martial arts people? The messenger looked at the black-haired delivery man in surprise.
“It’s made of good wood and lacquered several times, so it’s as strong as iron.”
“Uh huh. It was made so that you can put plenty of food inside. “It’s amazing who thought of it.”
The iron bag had an interesting appearance, but the construction quality was not poor. There was no doubt that it was an item made by a skilled craftsman.
“haha. Because our host is a great person. “4 pieces of black bean paste and sweet and sour pork are worth 4 silver.”
“What?! “Isn’t 4 pieces of black bean paste and sweet and sour pork worth 3 silver?”
When the messenger heard the price mentioned by the delivery man, the curious expression on his face disappeared and his expression was filled with astonishment.
No matter which guesthouse I go to, I can eat it for 3 silver. I want 1 silver or more. What kind of rip-off is this?
“You man! “Then why would the delivery man come all the way here?”
“What is the delivery man talking so shamelessly! Sorry! “This guy is short-thinking!”
When Pyosa’s expression turned grim, his friends reprimanded him.
“No, no matter what…”
“If you don’t want to pay, say no.”
“Oh no! “I’ll pay.”
A man cannot take back what he has said. Pyosa quickly took money out of his purse and handed it to the Korean.
The delivery man felt the messenger’s hand tremble, but did not show it and took the four silver pieces.
“If you put the dishes outside, we will take them. “The 53rd Giosugu you sent is here.”
Lastly, the delivery man took out the Giosugu that had just flown into the guesthouse from the iron bag and returned it.
“Thank you! “I’ll order it again next time!”
“yes. If you order through Kiosugu, the delivery people will come to you wherever you are! Ungi Guesthouse run by Koreans! Please use us again next time!”
The delivery man energetically shouted the prepared catchphrase and immediately left the room.
“No… I can’t believe food was actually delivered.”
Even after seeing the food on the table, Mr. Pyo could not believe what had just happened.
“Isn’t Giosugu amazing? Even if it’s a delivery, a rich family would order a servant to do it. You had to tell your regular customer in advance to get it. Even people like us can order delivery food.”
It’s not that there is no delivery food in this world. However, this is only for wealthy families with servants or regulars who order a lot of food.
It wasn’t something the four men gathered in the room could do.
“If I send Giosugu, will my order come right away?”
“okay. Can you see the number on the foot of Giosugu? They say they write down the Giosugu number and house location on the guest cup. “If you put food on the kiosugu and throw it away, the delivery man will come here.”
“You came before the food got cold. “It’s fascinating.”
“The price is a bit high, but I heard it’s convenient. “Everyone is going crazy these days because they want to bring a Giosugu to this neighborhood.”
“You don’t think anyone is giving it to you?”
“There are some conditions. “He must be a person who usually orders food well at the guesthouse, and if he doesn’t order food again within 15 days, he must be sent back.”
Friend added that if Jeon Seo-gu dies, he may have to pay a penalty, so it would be better to release him if he is not going to eat it.
“haha. “Who on earth thought of this?”
Order food with Jeon Seo-gu. Pyosa lived with pride that he had broader knowledge than others, but he could not hide his surprise at this incident.
“I don’t know. “Raising jeonseogu is something that only some craftsmen can do.”
“It doesn’t matter who did it, as long as it’s good, it’s okay!”
“You-all! “You’re not going to play mahjong after eating, are you?”
“Of course you have to do it while eating!”
The four men in the room happily played mahjong while eating black bean noodles and sweet and sour pork.
Don’t waste your energy going out to eat. You can eat while enjoying the game.
You can eat food and play mahjong at the same time without worrying about what others think.
As he laughed and chatted with his friends, filled his stomach, and happily played mahjong, there was no other paradise for him.
“Delivery food… this is so good.”
The master said while stroking his full stomach with satisfaction.
“Once I start ordering, I don’t want to go to restaurants anymore!”
“Me too!”
“Now that I think about it, the price seems reasonable considering the delivery fee.”
The messenger calculated once again, feeling full and happy.
I paid a lot of money to order sweet and sour pork for 4 people, but I didn’t pay that much if it was for 1 person.
It is more profitable to play mahjong while eating in your room than to waste time going back and forth between guest rooms.
Pyo Sa finally realized the benefits of delivery food.
“okay. yes?”
“By any chance, Giosugu. “Can I get one too?”
“If you apply by today, they will give it to you right away and it will take a few days starting tomorrow.”
“What?! “Why are you saying that now?”
This was not the time.
Pisa suddenly got up from her seat.
“Where are you going without even turning your cards?!”
“I’m going to go out for a bit!”
*****************
The pilot spraying of Giosugu was successful.
“Lord Hoe! Another order has arrived! 4 Jajangmyeon. “Sweet and sour pork is one of the best!”
“I’m going to get hurt. “Go down slowly.”
I quietly told Jeomsoi to go down from the 3rd floor to the 1st floor, holding the order form written on Jeonseogu.
“yes!”
The third floor of the guesthouse has been renovated to allow guests to come and go. For no reason, if you share a room with a place that accepts jeonseogu, it will only take more time.
“This really works. “How on earth did you come up with this idea?”
Ha-yeon Lim asked as if she was surprised as I looked at Jeom So-i going down to the first floor.
“Wuhan is the capital of Hubei Province. “It is the largest city in Hubei Province and is located along the Yangtze River, so there are plenty of jobs.”
“What does the overflow of jobs have to do with Gio Shugu?”
“Men come from countless places to Wuhan alone in search of work. “Because there are quality jobs, purchasing power increases, and men who have purchasing power tend to buy food.”
In Korea, it’s only been a few decades since the adults in the family started telling their children that if they left the kitchen, they had to cut off their dicks.
Since we live in a world where ordinary men cannot cook at home unless they have a job, there was bound to be a demand for delivery food when it appeared in the world.
“How can a person’s thoughts reach that far?”
“It’s all thanks to Hayeon Sojeo’s Giosugu.”
Even an amazing siege and annihilation operation in which 300 troops can deal with 5,000 enemies is impossible unless 300 are capable of wielding a 6kg dagger.
Without Lim Ha-yeon’s Jeon Seo-gu, it would not have been possible to even execute it.
Like the pigeon known as the Flying Rat in Korea, Giosugu has a short growth period to adulthood and even has good reproductive capacity.
Because they fly long distances to deliver news, they can survive even if they starve for a long time. In other words, it can survive even if the customer provides sloppy management.
It is the optimal means of communication for delivery.
“They were all kids I was going to release if I had to, but it was useful.”
Originally, Kiosugu were guys that didn’t mind being released.
Although there are very rare cases of spirit-level animals like Gugu being born that can understand human speech, most of them are rather smart pigeons. What was important was Lim Ha-yeon’s ability to train Jeon Seo-gu.
In addition, Lim Ha-yeon did not have much hesitation in releasing them because they quickly turn into chickens if released into nature.
“When a customer sends an order, they return it to the customer through the delivery person, and if they don’t order for a certain period of time, they get it back. “We will be able to minimize the damage to the Giosugu.”
“It doesn’t really matter if I lose it. “If you leave kids like Gugu alone, it will quickly increase.”
Each and every animal is profitable, but that can’t be the case.
“Customers should know that Kiosugu is valuable so they can’t treat it carelessly, so I’ll keep it a secret.”
“Okay then. And I think the Korean people are very helpful too.”
Ha-yeon Lim said to me while looking at the Koreans working hard in the guest room.
“I didn’t sit down as the leader for nothing.”
It is the Lord’s command. Koreans Assemble! After shouting one word, it was very easy to find the manpower I wanted.
He hired a Joseon man who was good at handling wood and had him make iron bags and remodel guest rooms. Fearing a shortage of cooks, they also hired Koreans who were good at cooking.
He gave small amounts of money to Koreans who worked in Jeomsoi or had connections in Wuhan and had them promote Giosugu.
In addition, delivery workers were selected through a strict selection process, making delivery food easy to establish.
“It seems like there is a lot of money left over, but will it be possible to get more money than the original amount within the period?”
Ha-yeon Lim was surprised by my idea, but could not hide a hint of anxiety.
Apart from the fact that it is definitely a good business, being able to pass the test of Mangeumjeonju within the period is another matter.
“This is bound to succeed.”
don’t worry. I spoke with confidence and looked towards the first floor, where there was a long line of people.
“Wo this is a guesthouse that distributes kiosugu?!”
The first floor is already crowded with people trying to receive the Giosugu.
“Give me a Giosugu too!”
“Applications are accepted here. If your identity is clear and your address is clear, after verification…”
“I will apply first!”
“Move!”
“I’ll pay for it! “Give it to me first!”
my idea. Lim Ha-yeon’s abilities. A delivery food system created by the Korean people.
The more customers use Kiosugu, the more they will feel overwhelming convenience.
And once people realize convenience, they realize one thing.
“Once you experience delivery, you can never go back to the days when there was no delivery.”
Now is the time to rake in the money.
