Chapter 165 – Chapter 33 (5)

Shim Eun-nang learns the shocking fact that the world is collapsing.
She did not express herself as much as possible and greeted Jincheon’s party the next day.

For the first time in her life, Ha-yeon Lim, who changed the color of her skin and eye color, and Jin-cheon, who appeared wearing Seo Yu-ran, who covered her face with cotton yarn, seemed frustrated for the first time in her life.

Jincheon and Shim Eunnang treated the two as if they hadn’t met because of work yesterday.

Because even as Jincheon, she didn’t want to let the public know that she had obtained the Sword Hu and Hwan Yao yet.

Sim Eun-nang, who gave her the impression that she had forgotten her work in the past, as she greeted Jin-cheon, received education from her heart and mind, and she quickly began to learn about the smuggling trade.

“Huh? Father. What is this?”

While she was going through various documents to find out what she had to do for smuggling, she expressed a question about one document.

“Slaves, the number of items required is 30.”
“You mean that? I’m talking about the slaves to ride on the ships of the people of the western regions. The people of the western regions buy and sell slaves as goods. I have slaves for the people of the western regions to trade with me. Try to make a deal with me for that.”
“Yes? But Haomen is human trafficking…”
Haha, don’t worry. They’re selling slaves to the Miao tribe and other barbarians. Don’t worry, human trafficking is risky and not worthwhile.”

Hao Mun does not engage in human trafficking and keeps the minimum line, but no one cares if it is not the people of the Ming Dynasty.

In fact, the official who noticed that Shim Gyeong-seo was smuggling and tried to arrest him did not impose any restrictions on the way he caught and trafficked other barbarians.

In other words, the officials of the country are not betting on the behavior of Shim Gyeong-seo, who catches and sells other peoples.

“But if that happens, the Miao people and other foreign peoples will look at us badly…?”
“It doesn’t matter. If they attack us, do you think we’ll leave the country alone?”

From the standpoint of the country, it reacts sensitively to the fact that foreign peoples attacked their territory.

The Ming Dynasty is very weak due to the ban on the sea, but the army is strong, so other peoples who know the power of the Ming Dynasty could not easily touch it.

“Hmm…”

Shen Ennang had a bad feeling that if the Miao people or other foreign peoples also went through something like this, they would inevitably cause trouble.

Shim Gyeong-seo may have had similar thoughts, and he used a large amount of money to increase his influence in propaganda and to cover the number and quality of the warriors.

Over time, this city will be the same as that of Shim Gyeong-seo and Sim Eun-nang, and foreigners will not be able to touch the two women.

Thinking there would be no answer to this question even if she inquired further, she moved the topic to another part.

“By the way Jinchun, he seems to have just met his father. Has he managed to earn enough money to build a luxurious mansion in the suburbs?”
“Oh, you mean that?”

Shim Kyung-seo smiled as if she still smiled when she remembered the events of that day.

He told me all about Jincheon’s active role in smuggling trade and all the troubles he had with Haenampa.

“At that time, he told me. I’ll take care of the Haenampa, so give him all the money you were going to use to calm the Haenampa.”
“Yes?”
“At the time, I responded with the mindset of being as good as I could be, and thanks to that, I was able to solve the problem of Haenampa.”
“Wait a minute. Then now he is…”

Apparently, the money he was trying to use to appease Haenampa amounted to 30% of Haomen’s annual operating expenses.

Even in silver coins alone, it is a huge amount of money, exceeding almost 10,000 units.
Does that mean that money is now in the hands of an individual named Jincheon?

“Even in Beijing, where land is the most expensive, they are rich enough to build a luxurious mansion and play and eat for the rest of their lives.”
“Her.”

What is the true identity of Jincheon?

Because he is a human being, he has excellent martial arts skills, the ability to make countless women his own, and has become a boy who can live without worrying about money for the rest of his life.

He’s like…

“It looks like the main character in a knights novel sold on the street.”

He gets stronger by getting a chance, gets many beauties like a hero, and even has a lot of goods.

How can it be that there are all characters like the main characters in novels?
However, if there is something different from the main characters in such novels,

“Your personality is so frivolous and cruel.”

The main characters of the novel are righteous heroes, but he is more like a slut who covets color and acts as he pleases rather than a hero.

“Still, you keep the minimum level. I rather like that kind of person.”
“Yes?”

Shim Eun-nang looked at her father with eyes that seemed to be sane.

“At least, he has never suppressed me by force. Whether he earns money or receives compensation, he accepts my request and fulfills it properly.”
“Ah…”

The Murim people take advantage of their strength to oppress, treat, and intimidate other powerless people.

The political faction tends to do it less if they have an external eye, but the private faction does it very openly.

If it were a powerless civilian, even Sapa would not do such a thing because he has a pride problem, but since Hao Mun is classified as a Moorim sect, he is a perfect opponent to openly threaten.

“Once, when I carefully asked about this, he said that rather than earning money easily, he said that working and earning money like this is a good way to spend money.
“At least when it comes to money, he’s got the right head.”
“Isn’t it fun? If you have this kind of power, you will show your skills in midfield and at the same time, you will want to spend money and wealth in all kinds of places. But he prefers to work and earn money rather than that way.”

At first, Shim Gyeong-seo tried to establish a relationship with Jin-cheon only by looking at his skills, but he liked the way he treated money, so he liked it and wanted to make a stronger bond.

“Come to think of it, there’s a secret trade today. It’s a small trade, so go back and cool your head. It’s something you need to know how to work in order.”
“Yes, got it.”

Still, there were too many things to take on all at once, so Shim Eun-nang, who needed to cool his head, nodded his head, deciding to feel the sea.

*        *

“Why are you here again?”
“I’ve been having fun driving a boat lately.”

Shim Eun-nang, who boarded a medium-sized sailboat to be used for smuggling trade, made an absurd expression when she saw that the captain of the sailboat was Jincheon.

“You know it’s not that easy to steer a boat, right?”
“My lady, with all due respect, this person has skills similar to that of an ordinary helmsman.”

At that time, the captain of this ship gave her reassurance towards the planted sac and told her not to worry.

“Really?”
“We were also surprised. Driving a boat is not an easy task, but after listening to our explanation a few times, they clumsily followed it. And now, they have become rather skilled helmsmen.”

In a typical sailing game, if you take the helm of a ship, you can control the direction of the ship by turning the steering wheel around.

But it’s possible because it’s a game, and it takes a lot of skill to actually hold the steering wheel.

Jincheon quickly mastered the skill with his intelligence and was able to become an ordinary helmsman.

“Ha ha. Anyway, please take care of me.”
“Yes maam.”
“Don’t use weird words.”
“Aye, write.”

Shim Eun-nang sighed at the sight of Jincheon using a Western language, but I was a little excited to see her leaving for the vast sea.

“We’re leaving! Raise the sails!”
“Raise the sails!”

Flutter –

When the sails were raised, the sailboat began to move little by little with the wind.

Jincheon skillfully changed direction while receiving instructions from the captain, and all of his crew became deckhands and fulfilled their respective roles faithfully.

It was so boring to sit around doing nothing, so he learned at least one thing that would help each man handle his boat.

As Jincheon and his party, all masters, were active on the deck, the ship moved faster than usual.

On the other hand, there were people who saw them like that.

“It departed.”

Two men, dressed like fishermen, saw the boat Jincheon and his party were riding in move, and quickly started running somewhere.

*        *

Shim Eun-nang looked amazed at the captain talking to the Saekmok people in terms he had never heard of.

I could understand why his father had emphasized several times that he should treat the captains of the smuggling trade as preciously as possible.

It is easy to find those who know how to drive a boat.
However, it is difficult to find a trustworthy captain who can speak the words of the people in the West to some extent.

“It’s small today. Only 30 pottery boxes are all.”
“Huh? Do you know what those people are talking about?”

Shim Eun-nang listened to the conversation between the captain and the people in the West Station and asked Jincheon, who was leaning on the railing with a sad expression, with an absurd expression.

“Well, roughly.”

This is also due to his intelligence.
In modern times, he did not like to learn other languages, but now, with a little effort, the power of his understanding is enough to understand them roughly.

‘If I had been in modern times with this hair, at least I wouldn’t have worried about the language problem.’

Jincheon thought so and felt regret.
How many games were there that I couldn’t enjoy because of language problems?

‘Well, I’m used to this world now.’

But now, I was getting stronger step by step, and the sense of achievement from the bottom up was even better.

“Jinrang, ah~”
“Ah”

And all the more because he is leading the life of a victor with beautiful females who love him.

Jincheon leaned on her railing and was playing like a keut, eating southern fruits from her girls, but Shim Eun-nang looked at him and made a complicated expression.

It’s amazing that someone who knows nothing about ships can skillfully take the helm, but can you even roughly interpret a language you’ve never heard of?

Shim Eun-nang, who thought it was a life where she had everything she had, saw Jincheon and felt that there was someone who really had it all.

‘Do you know how to drive a boat and understand the language of people in the West? In addition to that, he is also excellent at medicine and metallurgy? What is this human Are you a real person?’

At this point, Jincheon doesn’t even look like a human.

Anyway, the deal gave him a rough idea of ​​what he needed to learn to focus on.

‘I have to learn the language of the westerners.’

In order to do business in the future, you will have to talk to the westerners.
But if you can’t have a conversation, those who know the language of the people in the West can agree.

Translate? Interpretation can also be a pass.
After all, if you want to avoid being scammed, you must first learn the language.

“Haaa…”

The things I have to learn are like Mt. Tae, but I have to learn the language of people in the western region.
My head hurts just thinking about it.

However, Shim Eun-nang, who had been listening to the voice of a prodigy since childhood and grew up with a brilliant mind, only felt that it was difficult, but did not feel despair that it was impossible.

That’s how the deal ended, and when he saw the contents of the silver box he had obtained after selling 30 pottery boxes, his motivation began to rise even more.

If you can get this amount of silver with just 30 boxes of pottery, you can get a financial power that no one can ignore you.

If his father goes to the center of Haomen to increase his influence, and he himself supports behind the scenes in this matter, he will be able to exert an overwhelming influence within Haomen.

“Come on, everyone, let’s go back!”

After completing the deal, the captain gave orders to the crew and started moving back to the city.

“Captain.”
“Yes, lady.”
“Looks like it went well this time. Are most trades like this?”
“No. Sometimes there are guys who surprise with gunpowder and cannonballs instead of silver. The target was even the captain of the West Station, who he knew his face through several transactions. This is something that no one can protest against being robbed. That’s it.”

The captain gave all the information he knew to Shim Eun-nang, who would become his future boss.

In this way, the captain and Sim Eun-nang had several conversations, and Jincheon turned the ship and headed for the city.

“Ppampappam~ Ppampappam~ Tttattattararan ttattan~”

Feeling the sea breeze and steering the steering wheel, Jincheon hums the music of Pirates of the Caribbean.

“Huh?”

In the distance, I could spot a ship approaching this way.

“Hey Captain! Looks like a guest is coming!”
“My lady, hold on.”

At Jincheon’s call, the captain stretched out his telescope and looked at the faintly visible ship.

“Everyone prepare for battle! They’re aiming this way! One ship!”

Seeing the ship moving in a straight line towards this direction, the captain ordered to prepare for battle.

“A warship with oars. You can study very well today, lady.”

The captain moved to take the helm, smiling with little tension.

“Uh-cha. Then, let’s go to my car from here.”
“Please take care of me.”

Jincheon, who got out of the helm, assembled an iron bow from his bag and tied a quiver with an iron shih he made himself.

“Generally, there are boats with oars and boats without oars. Boats with oars have a higher instantaneous speed than boats without oars.”

The captain pointed out the type of ship and instructed her in a calm voice towards her planted sac.

“Instead, when the oars disappear, they become overwhelmingly slower than sailboats driven by sail. And coincidentally, we have the best archer on our side who can break the oars. You’re lucky, lady. You can capture one of the pirates’ ships on your first voyage. I mean.”
“Isn’t it too tense?”

Shim Eun-nang knows that Jincheon and the others are strong, but she is worried that they are not too tense.

Haha. If you’re with them, there can be no tension.”

With those words, the captain turned the bow of the boat towards the pirate ship rowing its way.

And, as we got closer, we turned the bow to the side,

Cheek! Suck!

Jincheon fired iron sights and began to destroy the moving oars from a distance.

Pupper puck! Simplicity and honesty! Cranky!

Let’s quickly destroy several oars by putting excessive internal energy into the iron or making them move like snakes, and the pirate ship, which was rowing and running fast in an instant, lost all of its oars.

“…”

Shim Eun-nang couldn’t help but continue to be astonished to see Jincheon’s performance in slowing down the pirate ship like a turtle while destroying all the oars in an instant.

It was because he didn’t use a single arrow in vain on a rocking boat like this.

“Haha! Did you see it, bastards!”
“Wow!”
“It’s Jincheon-nim!”

When Jincheon, who destroyed all the oars, showed off his pride, the sailors around him also responded in response, creating an atmosphere that they had already won.

Now, if you shoot the crew of a slow ship that has lost all its oars one by one from a long distance, you can capture a whole ship.

“Kuh kuh. I haven’t had any extra income lately, but that’s great.”

Jincheon, who played a major role in safely capturing the ship, had experienced this several times and regarded it as a lucrative side income.

However, it didn’t take long to realize that the pirates on the pirate ship were completely different from normal pirates.
