Cheonma Wants to Live Quietly - Chapter 82
It was after washing himself in hot water that Byeoktaesan left his room again.
It was not prepared by those who tried to look good to Byeoktaesan, but by his handmaids.
There were people wandering far away from Byeoktaesan, who left the room in a refreshing mood.
A fairly spacious garden was built around the pavilion where Byeoktaesan stayed, and the garden was surrounded by a fence, which hung near the gate.
It was the general officer and the people that Byeoktaesan left behind earlier.
The general, who found Byeoktaesan leaving the pavilion, was surprised and ran.
“Are you coming out now?”
“Are you out?”
The people greeted.
Byeoktaesan looked around them.
He roughly guessed why they were doing this. Perhaps it is because of the story told by the General of Homuryeon before boarding the ship from Ui-chang.
In fact, all he said was that he was just pushing for some deals with the top of Geumbyeoksangdan.
He said he’d ask for Byeoktaesan if he wanted to.
But Byeoktaesan was not interested.
So everything is up to Geumbyeoksangdan and the Homuryeon.
However, if they come out in that position, it means that they are tied to it in some way.
Byeoktaesan looked at the general and said,
“If you have something to say, say it now.”
“What?”
The rest of the people looked around Byeoktaesan.
“Isn’t there?”
Was it because the tone of Byeoktaesan was so dry? It flashed through their minds that they might not have a chance to speak again unless it is now.
“Please leave it up to me to build a Muhan branch of Homuyeon. I’ll show you what I can do.”
Then the person next to him quickly stepped out.
“I’m more qualified. I’ve already built and run multiple fields.”
“Please leave me with the paper delivery. It’s going to be really hard for you to get someone over there.”
Everyone poured out their words.
In summary, there were a total of three tasks that Homuryeon wanted to leave to Geumbyeoksangdan.
One was the construction of a Muhan branch of Homuryun.
It was a really big business that took care of everything from purchasing land to building a place and administration.
The second was to supply paper to Homuryeon.
The Homuryeon was an organization created by a group of masters from all over Hobuk. Naturally, the amount of research exchanged with each master is enormous.
Also, the amount of paper that had to be digested inside Homuryeon was enormous.
They say they will leave the exclusive right to deliver all the paper to Geumbyeoksangdan.
The third was to supply alcohol to Homuryeon.
As it was a group of fighters, there was a lot of alcohol consumed every day.
How great it must be to be able to deliver all that liquor exclusively.
The seven men who followed the general poured out flattering words to Byeoktaesan to get one of them.
So far, only one person has not said a word.
Byeoktaesan raised his hand and cut them off.
Seven people were talking, but it was cut off. It was such an exquisite breath.
When everyone opened their eyes wide and looked at Byeoktaesan, Byeoktaesan was looking at the general.
“Does the General have anything to say?”
Gamujin bowed politely and said.
“I hope you to see our master first.”
Byeoktaesan nodded.
“Well, yeah.”
At the end of the remark, Byeoktaesan strolled along, and the other seven looked blankly at the back.
The general officer quickly followed Byeoktaesan.
Soon after, Cheon Gyeong-wan and Yoo Seo-yeon were attached to both sides of Byeoktaesan.
* * *
“Well done, Sir.”
The general said, walking side by side next to Byeoktaesan.
Although Byeoktaesan didn’t reply much, the general officer worked hard on what he had to say.
“It’s best for them to let go. The business of the Homuryeon is so big this time, so he’s doing that in order to raise his voice through it.”
The general asked cautiously when Byeoktaesan still didn’t say anything.
“May I ask if you have a plan in mind?”
“There’s no such thing.”
Byeoktaesan turned his head and looked at the general and continued.
“I’ve never heard what’s going on.”
The general was astonished by the words.
“Huh? Are you sure?”
But for a moment, the general explained the situation as quickly and simply as possible.
It was very simple.
Three projects were planned to be carried out in Homuryeon along with Geumbyeoksangdan, which had conditions attached.
It was Byeoktaesan.
Byeoktaesan has to take this job.
If Byeoktaesan doesn’t want it, the person appointed by Byeoktaesan must take the job.
Rather than just appointing him blindfolded, the Homuryeon side decided to confirm that Byeoktaesan appoints the person in charge.
Hearing all the stories, Byeoktaesan smirked.
“Things to be cut off.”
The general was startled and spoke carefully.
“But they’re indispensable”
“They’re now, I suppose so. Well, it’s none of my business.”
Byeoktaesan said so. He had nothing more to say and He didn’t want to.
After walking for a while, He arrived at the office of Byeok Tae-su, the owner of Geumbyeoksangdan.
It was the first time seeing his older brother, Byeok Tae-soo, since he took over the body of Byeoktaesan.
The general bowed politely to Byeoktaesan in front of the office.
“I’m going to get out of here. Please, have a good time with master.”
When the general officer stepped away, Byeoktaesan looked at his back for a moment. Then He told Chun Kyung-wan.
“Go to Baekhwalu.”
“Yes. What should I say?”
Baekhwalu is a Muhan branch of Haomun. Baekhwaluju may not be here yet, but he will be able to carry out the instructions of Byeoktaesan as much as he wants.
“Tell them to do some research.”
Cheon Kyung-wan was startled and looked at Byeoktaesan.
“You mean the General?”
“Not just the general, but those seven, and the others. Tell them to shake off Geumbyeoksangdan.”
Byeoktaesan continued, pointing at Byeoktaesu’s office with a chinjig.
“There are no exceptions.”
Cheon Kyung-wan bowed his head.
“Yes, I’ll deliver it right away.”
Byeoktaesan nodded and went into Byeoktaesu’s office.
* * *
Byeoktaesan was sitting in the reception room next to Byeoktaesu’s office.
Byeok Tae-soo was in a hurry to take care of something, so he decided to finish it and come back.
While sitting, He slowly looked not only around but also the ceiling and floor.
It was a very strange place.
The atmosphere or decoration did not make him feel right.
The energy flowing in this room was different from other places.
Maybe that’s what the whole office of Byeok Tae-soo is like.
Byeoktaesan calmly grasped the flow of chi.
‘That’s strange.
The flow of chi itself was normal. However, the energy itself was subtly different.
Byeoktaesan tilted his head.
He felt something familiar. However, it was unfamiliar.
So it was strange.
When He was so focused on his energy, Byeok Tae-soo came in.
“I’m sorry to have kept you waiting so long.”
Byeoktaesu said so and sat in front of Byeoktaesan.
There was a moment of silence. Byeok Tae-soo was looking at Byeoktasan.
“I’m glad you’re feeling much better.”
Byeoktaesan only nodded once. Actually, He didn’t have much to say.
Perhaps there was something to say about Byeoktaesan in the past, but Byeoktaesan now was not like that.
“I’ve heard that you were active in the Homuryeon.”
“It’s nothing.”
Byeoktaesan was amazed by the natural feeling of happening.
Intimacy and concern crept up deep inside.
Perhaps Byeoktaesan was worried about his older brother, Byeoktaesu, until he died.
Of course, that didn’t mean to make him do what he wanted.
Whenever you want, you will do whatever you want.
“I was really surprised when I came from the house. That’s why our top is a bit noisy right now, so I hope you understand.”
Byeoktaesan nodded lightly.
He didn’t really care.
“Actually… there have been some internal discussions while you were in the Homuryeon.”
Only then did Byeoktaesan get a little curious and look at Byeoktaesu.
If he says that now, it means that the subject of discussion is Byeoktaesan.
“So there was a consensus that you should take the job in here.”
As soon as He heard, Byeoktaesan thought it was annoying.
To be honest, it didn’t matter to him.
It was enough to leave after receiving a small house, a prize, and a few bases, which were given as a share of Byeoktaesan.
No, he didn’t need that either.
It was full of wealth anyway. He had a lot of money He got from robbing this time.
You can still use the Haomun if anything.
If you ask Hwaok to leave her finances and make money on her own, she will do really well.
“I’m fine.”
Byeok Tae-soo looked at Byeoktaesan with round eyes instead of talking.
He didn’t know He’d say no so firmly.
“Why don’t you think about it again? your position here will change. I want you to take care of two of the projects I’m working on with the Homuryun this time.”
Byeoktaesan shook his head lightly.
The movement was light, but the atmosphere at that moment was so determined that Byeok Tae-soo couldn’t speak more and stared at Byeoltaesan.
“The business, you can make a rough decision.”
He looked at Byeoktaesan with his sparkling eyes.
“Are you sure?”
“Yes.”
Byeok Tae-soo shook his head with a sigh.
It was worrisome to see such a good opportunity being blown away like this.
Byeok Tae-soo took a break and calculated a few things in his head. Then, he quietly opened his mouth while looking at Byeoktaesan.
“I’ll give you a percentage of the net profit from the three projects I’m working on.”
Byeoktaesan nodded at the words.
“Well, whatever.”
Byeok Tae-soo smiled at his younger brother’s reaction.
To be honest, He thought He would be surprised at all, but He didn’t think He’d take it so plainly.
The younger brother could not have known what the net profit of the three businesses meant.
He’s such a bright guy since he was a kid.
Silence lingered for a while. Then, Byeok Tae-soo suddenly asked.
“Are you trying to be independent?”
Byeoktaesan tilted his head at the word independence.
In fact, He’s never thought about it yet. He’s still doing it now, but He didn’t feel uncomfortable.
However, when He came to think about it, it seemed that there was nothing bad.
‘There’s just one nice option….’
There is a shrine to Cheonmashingyo in Muhan. He used it when he was picking out Danyoung’s soul.
‘No, I don’t think it’s a good idea to use it for a mission.’
‘We have a lot of money, so we can build one.’
Byeok Tae-soo looked at his brother with complicated eyes.
‘When did you grow up like this…….’
His eyes on Byeoktaesan became more and more affectionate.

Seo Do-gun walked slowly trying to calm the extreme tension.
Don’t rush. And you can’t reveal your insides.
Walking along the long hallway, at some point, hE felt as if the floor was sticking to HIS feet.
And the air changed.
The energy that flows in it has also changed.
The tension that barely subsided rose again without an end.
He smelled terrible blood.
Seo Do-gun’s footsteps have slowed down. There was no speed because He forced me to go on the road he didn’t want to go.
Soon the hallway was over.
There was a large room at the end of the hall, which was packed with large display cases everywhere.
Inside the display case, there was a whole black bottle, and He felt bizarre just by looking at it.
And there was a man standing in the middle of the room.
Seodo-gun bowed politely to the man.
“Did you call me?”
A man glanced at Seodo-gun and walked to one of the display cases.
Then, he raised his finger toward Seo Do-gun.
Seodo-gun quickly ran to the side of the company.
“Do you see these?”
Seodo-gun identified a black bottle pointed by a man’s finger.
Only three of them had turned white.
“It’s a container that carried Gwanghyeolsamma.”
A man slipped his hand on the four bottles next to him.
“This is how Gwangdongsagoe came back…….”
The man’s eyes turned to Seo Do-gun. His eyes glistened in a friendly way.
“Gwanghyeolsamma never comes back.”
Seo Do-gun forcefully opened his mouth.
“So you’re saying that Gwanghyeolsamma may still be active somewhere?”
The man shook his head firmly.
“No, he’s dead.”
The white color seemed to mean the disappearance of the soul.
“Then… shall we find the body of Gwangdongsagoe again? Can’t you figure something out through them?”
A man smirked.
“That’s impossible. I’ll go back to the way I was when I first caught the soul here.”
A man looked down at Seo Do-gun.
Seo Do-gun swallowed saliva.
“So find a useful body. A body strong enough to withstand a strong soul.”
Seo Do-gun replied with relief inside.
“Yes, sir.”
At that moment, a blood-red beam rose from the man’s eyes. The light wrapped around Seo Do-gun’s body and tightened it tightly.
“Urghh!”
Seo Do-gun let out a painful groan.
“By the way, you’re going to get a punishment to trick me, right?
Seo Do-gun’s eyes trembled.
‘You knew everything!’
Seodo-gun screamed as he saw all the bloody sights filling the room pouring into him.
“Nooooo!”
The screams continued for a long time after that.
And the man who caused all this was looking at Seo Do-gun with indifferent eyes.
