*** ***

As expected, Mo Yong-seo accepted my offer.

From Mo Yong-seo’s perspective, there was a high probability that my proposal would be like a sweet rain in a drought.

Even Mo Yong-seo would have had no obvious way to deal with the Seomseo Branch.

Could it be that the Moyong family was so weak that they could not subdue the Shaanxi branch?

If they had intended to suppress the Shaanxi branch by force, they would have been suppressed long ago.

However, suppressing a branch family by force because it caused trouble was a very low-class method compared to the value of the name of the Mo Yong family, one of the five great families in the world.

Try to resolve things in the most gentle way possible, and it’s a method that should only be attempted at the end.

Therefore, it was difficult for me to use force.

This body Hocheonan.

Now I am a Hwagyeong expert.

It can be said that it has sufficient power to use brute force.

What if I hit Senseo Bunta like that?

Shaanse Bunta Lord Moyonggaeksang is known as a fire fighter, but there are countless ways to avoid Bunta Lord and inflict damage on Shaanse Bunta.

This request could be easily ended if it was pushed into a situation where it could not be given up without asking for help from the main family, but this would never be the solution that the Mo Yong family wanted.

Therefore, Shaanxi Bunta had to be defeated in a way other than military suppression.

“Now, take your pick! pick! Choose and choose again! If you match the glass with the dice, it triples! Opportunity doesn’t come every day!”

For that purpose, this body Hocheonan.

“Extraordinary price! Another special event! If you hit the dice, the double dividend is tripled today! A life-changing opportunity that doubles your profits!”

They were playing wild rock in the mining village.

“The guy came again.”

“It looks like he’s a new guy, right?”

The miners who came out of the office after accepting their daily wages, looking scruffy and covered in soot and sweat, showed interest in me.

“Sleep! This opportunity doesn’t come around every day! Triple the dividend! Limited to today! Get your money right away!”

The miners who accepted daily wages for my solicitation began to gather quietly.

As expected, the same-day exclusive special dividend additional event was true.

“Hey, if you get caught cheating here, you’ll get your wrist chopped off with a pickaxe.”

“Oh, of course. Now take a look. It’s a very clean board. You can check the glass.”

Currently, my sleeves are neatly rolled up and I am using a table with only legs on a plank without any shield for rolling the rock.

When he handed the glass to the suspicious miner, the miner who checked the glass gave it back with a sniffing sound.

And then the gambling began.

It goes without saying, but I skillfully collected the miners’ money. Not only does he sneakily show his loophole, but he also pretends to be polite and polite on the outside and gives a look that only the miner standing at the board can feel harsh about.

The miners who fell for my provocation continued to fuss and bet money.

“Left! Five coins on the left!”

“Oh my, it was the center.”

“Damn it! Damn it!”

As a result, I successfully drained the pockets of many miners. Even if it was stolen, it was only a day’s wages, so it could not be considered a large amount of money.

When the number of miners who lost their money reached a significant number, I stopped playing.

“Okay, that’s all for today.”

The miners who had been robbed by me started shouting as if they had been waiting for just that moment.

“Is it guts or something!”

“I was thinking of starting over from now on!”

“Lay the board now!”

I know this and they also know that the miners who raise their voices have empty pockets. However, if someone was forced like this, they would usually return a small amount in the name of peace, which was also the beauty of this kind of cruelty.

“Hey, brothers, please take a look. I’ve been spinning glasses all day today, and my wrists are killing me.”

“That’s your problem!”

The miners raised their voices as if they thought I could receive a revised review when I showed weakness.

It was exactly what I wanted.

“Hush, I can’t pass the glasses anymore today, so I’ll give you back at least some of the money you won.”

The miners’ faces brightened, but it was still too early to feel at ease.

“Dan! I will give half back to only those who will have a drink with me today!”

The miners, who looked puzzled for a moment, soon brightened up. Anyway, it is normal for miners to drink alcohol after a day’s work. They must have been wondering what the point of getting one person involved while getting half of the money back was.

“Good! Good!”

“Brother! You have great business skills! You know the rules of the mine!”

“Hahaha! Brothers! Let’s go!”

He instantly became friendly with the miners and went into a tavern and started drinking cheap rice wine. After returning half of the money and putting a few cheap snacks on the plate, the miners’ eyes were filled with goodwill.

If you think about it, it’s all money that came from their own pockets, but there’s no need to mention it.

“I’m the guy! Today, I dug up iron ore as big as my thigh in one go with a pickaxe!”

“Oh! Brother, you are truly amazing!”

“Hahaha! you? As soon as you enter the mine, the bluff guy starts bragging! My thighs are sore, wondering if I’m going to push the tram by myself today!”

The miners are spitting, drinking, and talking about mine sagas with 90% of bragging. After confirming that it was truly a full-fledged drinking party for men, I slowly began to spread bait.

“Great, but brothers, miners seem to be making good money.”

“What?”

“Isn’t that so? Looking at how much you spend, it seems like your daily wages are very high. I’m jealous.”

“Hey, this is it.”

“If there are miners who work for as little as we do, tell them to come out!”

“You are receiving a very small salary!”

As expected, these people are excited and spitting. I said with a surprised expression on my face.

“No, it seemed like you were receiving a fairly small daily wage, but do you mean that you were paid a low salary?”

The miners, who looked at my face with an expression that said, ‘I don’t know anything about the mining industry,’ gulped down their drinks or raised their voices as if they were exasperated.

“Nana, skilled workers like these guys here actually should be paid 1.5 times more than their current daily wage!”

“Yes? But why…”

“It’s all because of the damn subcontracting!”

I asked again, putting on a puzzled expression.

“No, isn’t there at least some subcontracting wherever you go?”

One miner, who must have been very frustrated by my frustrating performance, spewed out spit and spoke passionately.

“Subcontracting can happen anywhere, but here the amount is different!”

“Oh, I’m just getting fucking mad!”

I thought as I looked at the miners gulping down their drinks.

The collateral branches of the Shaanxi branch suddenly exploded and became wealthy.

Are such collaterals managing their own business thoroughly?

Of course, they think they are managing it thoroughly.

But will the born warriors be able to control the worn-out merchants to the point where they are on edge?

It’s difficult.

Due to the nature of the mining industry, which requires numerous manpower, technology, and distribution channels, it is impossible to know whether or not the affiliates will be able to control the merchants, no matter how alert they are.

I thought there might be an answer to that, so I infiltrated the mine like this.

How can people who have practiced martial arts at home all their lives become merchants overnight?

By breaking and rolling, I realized one by one how to become a merchant.

However, since he became rich overnight, how could Shamanseo Bunta properly operate this mine?

My prediction was that although he would make enough profit as a mine owner, he would be a long way from being able to truly be considered a mine owner.

And my expectations were correct.

“I don’t know if the owner of the mine is Moorim Se, but he doesn’t know how to run a business!”

“Draw! We need to listen to the voices on the ground! Since I only hang out with managers, how can I know what’s going on in the field?”

A typical desk problem that only managers think they have to manage!

I don’t know, but I had a feeling that they would completely believe in the reports provided by managers and representative merchants.

Rather than going through the trouble of investigating the scene yourself, people will think that it is easier and easier to understand the situation intuitively by looking at a report prepared by someone else.

Perhaps Bunta’s collateral believed that their identity was as a martial artist rather than as a merchant, and the mines were left to the merchants.

As a result, whether due to lack of interest or ignorance, the mine owner, the subsidiary of Seomseobunta, is not managing the mine properly.

Naturally, merchants took advantage of this opportunity to set up their own warehouses here and there, and the damage was passed on to the workers.

“Hmm…”

Is this worth digging into?

An in-depth investigation was necessary because we could not just trust the words of a few miners.

I said while looking at the miners who were loudly criticizing the managers.

“Brothers, can I become a miner too?”

After all, research is best done physically.
