A person who notices Cheong in particular starts to speak while clearing his throat.

The reason was simple.

First of all, I was mesmerized by the face, but later I realized that it seemed like a great rudeness or a foolish action, and I coughed in embarrassment.

The same goes for the owner of the Daewan Sanghoe. Even if he is a completely unwelcome guest, he forgets what to say after receiving the gracious beauty, and can only cough once out of embarrassment at the silence.

“Keuhum. Jo So-yo is the owner of Daewan Sanghoe.”

“This is Seomuncheong. Lord Hoe, in the city right now-”

It was the perfect time for Cheong to get straight to the point.

When you become the head of a business, you can’t keep your tongue, so the head of the company said what he wanted to say while blocking Cheong’s words.

“Look, according to the national law, if more than 50 men gather in one place for an event that has not been reported in advance, except for ceremonial occasions and servants, it is treated as treason. It seems like Sojeo did this because he doesn’t know much about the laws of the country, but this is something that would be very disrespectful.”

Do you think it’s okay to gather people like this?

The implication was that if you disperse now, you will pretend not to notice and you should just leave.

Cheong answered him.

“Mr. I came here to purchase grain for the relief project.”

Hoeju’s face distorted.

Cheong’s response was to pretend not to hear anything.

It was such a clean disregard that I seriously looked back to see if I had just thought about it in my head and not said it out loud.

“There is a disaster in the city now-”

“No, no, didn’t you hear me? They say if people flock here, something big will happen.”

“I’m trying to solve Guhyulgok, but I’m wondering if Taechung Sangdan’s quantity will last for a few days. I will give you twice the market price. Would you please sell all the grain you have?”

In the end, Cheong said everything he had to say.

“Look, the laws of the country are strict-”

“Hoeju? Could you sell me some grain? I’ll give you more than the market price.”

“If we gather together like this, we will attack you!”

“Hoeju? I’ll give you 80 percent more than the market price.”

“No, I mean-”

“I will give you 10% more than the market price. Lord Hoe? Don’t you understand now? How kind are you to get it cheaper?”

With each word, the price goes down by one percent.

Hoeju jumped at that.

“Can you even say that! Now is the time to trade gold for an island. How can you get that price-”

“Six percent. ah! That’s right.”

Cheong raised his sword.

“It seems that the owner is not good at calculating, but now that I think about it, I didn’t show you this. ruler. look. Geom lecture. Twinkle.”

Cheong raised his moonlight sword (No. 8), showing off his sunset-colored sword.

Hoeju’s heart sank.

This bitch is very determined and has come to threaten me.

“Hoeju? Hoeju’s presence here means that the land of Naknyeong is Geoltaran. What was the name of this place?”

“This is Daewan Trading Company.”

“Okay. Can this be seen as meaning that Daewan Sanghoe arose and established itself in Naknyeong? Are you Naknyeong?”

“… … That’s right.”

“Then, we are all neighbors, and the current prosperity of the company came from Naknyeong, but are you saying that if the city is in a great disaster, you will make profit on precious grain?”

“Look, isn’t it true that the more precious a product is, the more its price goes up? Now-”

“Hoeju? There are many ears to listen, right? Do you have to speak well?”

The head of the house was struck by this and saw a crowd of people gathered behind the palace like a swarm of clouds.

If I couldn’t sell the faint cloud around my eyes like this, no matter how I went back now, I wouldn’t be able to walk around Naknyeong land comfortably in the future.

“ character. This is my final request. I’ll give you double the market price. As far as I know, the market price is a price with a markup, so wouldn’t it be a big benefit to the owner to double the price?”

It was the first time in Hoeju’s life that she had heard of a final request.

It was such a terrible sound that I had never even imagined that such a word could exist before.

“That. I am.”

The calculation methods for merchants and non-merchants are different.

If you buy something for one nyang and sell it for 2 nyang, you earn one nyang.

However, if you were able to sell that item for 10 nyang, you would not have earned 1 nyang, but would have lost 8 nyang.

But no matter what the loss, if you refuse, it will be a later problem. Considering the momentum, it is not a later problem, but a bad problem that will come flooding in right now, so I should say it is a golden problem.

“I understand. I will give you twice the market price.”

Cheong smiled and politely took the gun.

“Thank you for your decision for the city. Now, everyone, here is a Lord who was willing to give up great benefits for the city, right? Shall we all give thanks together?”

“Thank you!”

“Thanks to you, I survived!”

People responded by raising their voices.

“Keuhum. No, well, that’s it.”

It was a hard sell that was almost like a robbery, or rather, it could just be called a robbery, but since he returned the favor and saved his face, he actually gained a lot of face.

As the voices of gratitude grow louder, a hint of worry arises in Hoeju’s heart.

If I just participate in the relief effort at this point, wouldn’t I be able to gain people’s hearts at a loss anyway? … .

However, even if it sold twice as much, it actually sold well.

As Cheong said, the market price is included with this statement attached, so if it is twice the market price, it is a huge amount that is equal to the profit.

The owner of the company was torn between preserving profits and winning over people’s hearts, but in the end, he decided to preserve profits.

Of course, not all top stocks were like that.

“You are doing a good job! We, Yugasanghoe, will do our best to contribute to the relief project according to the wishes of the preface!”

As the Qing toured the merchant streets to purchase grain, merchants with less quantity even said they could just use it and gave it to them for free.

Even though it was an upward street, everyone had eyes and ears and it took time to stop by one by one, so when they heard the news that I had already sent it, everyone was resigned and waiting, having already made a decision about when my turn would come.

So, after completing the tour to the left of Taecheong Sangbang, we head to the right, stopping by in order before heading to the next manor.

Somehow the next gate is quite far away.

It was said that the manor was that wide.

And the sound of whispering behind the scenes.

“Isn’t Jangheung Commercial next?”

“Hmm. Are you okay?”

“If you’re going, what’s the big deal about Jangheung Commercial?”

“Still… … ”

Cheong asked Geoltaran.

“When the story of Jangheung Sangbang comes up, what does everyone say, do they hesitate a bit? Is it such a big upside?”

“ Speaking of Jangheung Sangbang, it is also famous as Shaomseo Jeil Sangbang.”

Cheong didn’t know it, but it was a huge Sangbang holding a castle tightly.

In the first place, if it was a business big enough to handle the water management business, it would hardly be a small hole-in-the-wall store in just a few cities.

“Don’t you say you have a lot of money?”

“Lady, if you have a lot of money, wouldn’t your backs be great? There is a rumor that Ark is a blood brother to Seomseo Pojeongsa, given how much money he spends on government affairs.”

“Ah. Did you get stuck with the pipe? How did you get the flood control work done like that? ah. Definitely.”

Cheong understood at once.

Climbing up to the edge of Cheongi Hill, the police officers holding spears are swarming in and setting up camp in a wide view.

And then the middle-aged man in the lead, who was wearing the hero’s name, saw Cheong and was distracted by her beauty, and then, like everyone else, cleared his throat and opened his mouth.

“Keuhum, stop!”

Cheong obediently stopped walking.

Since the steps stopped, only the mouth moved.

“The girl is called Seomuncheong. What kind of person are you?”

“Ruthless! Why can’t I be polite to Hyunseung!”

The strange answer came from the guy standing on the right.

Hyeonseung is roughly the second-in-command of the city, that is, an official equivalent to the vice mayor.

And the guy who just yelled at me is probably the guy next to me who helps with chores and flatters me.

“Hyunseung, you are a great person.”

The Qing pretended to seize power.

I hope the guy on his right gets angry again-

“Ruthless! Can’t I immediately kneel in front of the cloth given by the Emperor?”

Originally, subduing the initiative in a coffin meant bowing to the emperor’s solemn authority there and then getting to the point.

However, to be precise, there is a reason, a fact, a reason for the common people to kneel even though it is not in compliance with the emperor’s command.

Because if you didn’t kneel, you would be arrested.

In fact, Cheong’s knees are cheap.

For Cheong, kneeling is literally a state of waiting to be fired with a leg that transcends humanity, with one shot loaded to gain momentum.

However, since the guy named Hyunseung and his right-hand man were no different from bandits with a lot of bad karma, there was no reason to bow down to these petty villains and rely on their driving force.

“I don’t like it?”

“What, what!? How dare you, a lowly bastard, try to invade the authority of the emperor! You are a treasonous, traitorous bitch! I recognized him from the time he gathered the civilians and dragged them around!”

“It’s strange. So, here’s Hyunseung, the great man, the emperor! Aren’t you saying that you should do your best to be polite? So, Hyunseung and the Emperor are at the same height. Wow, isn’t this treason?”

“Who said that!?”

“Everyone! Here, Master Hyeonseung tells us to show courtesy in supporting the royal family! Living in this world, now, when it comes to the prefecture of a single city, they invoke the authority of the Emperor and tell us to fight with all our might and bow down! At this rate, who would say they harbored rebellious feelings!?”

The blood drained from Hyunseung’s face, who had been watching with a leisurely smile.

“Wait! I don’t have any thoughts like that!”

“But why do you carelessly tell me to fight with all my might! Isn’t this the utmost respect that can only be given to the Emperor, the master of the world? Now, Great Master Hyeonseung is in the same position as the Emperor himself! In this land of Naknyeong, I am the emperor! Didn’t you say this!”

Even the tongue can become a weapon.

It is not a sound that is said to be stabbed with a strong tongue, but a sound made in front of a large crowd like this soon becomes a rumor that is like a fact and spreads widely.

There is no way to stop such rumors without a great man, literally the Emperor, annihilating those who heard it with a rain of cannonballs.

“No, it’s a frame-up, a frame-up!”

“Scam. So, the person on the right is making up a story to accuse Hyunseung of treason! That guy was a traitor!”

The guy on the right jumped up.

“No, you’re talking strangely now-”

“Hyunseung Nari? What are you doing? You have a high-ranking criminal next to you. Isn’t there a separate reason for keeping and protecting someone who harbors unreasonable rebellious intentions? As expected, Hyunseung and Nari also harbored a traitor, didn’t they?”

“Well, don’t you dare say such terrible words! No matter what anyone says, my utmost loyalty is already like Mount Tai!”

“Then why do you keep allowing that cunning traitor? Didn’t you leave the police behind? The reason why he is not imprisoned right now is because he harbors rebellious intentions.”

“Woman, look! Arrest this guy immediately!”

“Oh my, Nari! I feel so wronged! Don’t you know! I just-”

“Eight, it’s noisy! Isn’t it something that will be revealed later whether there is a sin or not? For now, calmly receive the aura!”

Cheong watched the skit crookedly.

To begin with, the fact that the road here is blocked is just disgusting.

In the midst of trying so hard to save Guhyulgok, the guys called Gwan are setting up camp to protect Jangheung Sangbang or something, even though they can’t help, so of course I can’t help but feel jealous.

“It’s unfair! Daein, Daein!”

After the guy on the right was dragged away, Cheong spoke with a grin.

“Okay then, Hyunseung. The girl just has business at Jangheung Commercial, so could you please make way for me?”
