Chapter 624
When he got off the boat, other groups were already waiting for him.
“Everyone is waiting in the guest room.”
Following the instructions, we entered the largest guest room, which was also made up of rooms, and there were four Oryunhoe representatives seated there.
Gongsonyeong Namgungun Abbi Monk Sima Hyeon.
“Your brother is here now.”
Gongsun Yong shook his drink glass.
“They were already having a drinking party first. “You little benefactor.”
Jin Cheon-hee glanced at Nam Gung-un.
“I told you several times before that you shouldn’t drink alcohol.”
Those eyes were so harsh that Namgoong Woon scratched his cheek.
“Hahaha, what is it? “Isn’t it a gathering of people who were difficult to gather together like this?”
Monk Avi also seemed to have had a cup of grain tea and was quite drunk.
Surprisingly, the only one who is fine is Sima Hyeon.
“Are you here now?”
Colorful earrings dangled from her red silk clothes.
The Golden King’s agent and Hao Wen’s Somunju.
He offered his brother a sweet treat that would melt his tongue.

Before Jin Cheon-hee came, there was already a drinking party, but now that she has come, there is no need to worry.
Jin Cheon-hee drove out all the liquor bottles, got into the car, and handed each drinker a drink.
“It’s a great tea for hangovers and waking up. “Be sure to eat it all.”
Namgoongun, who had been hit by Jin Cheonhee’s pipa before, couldn’t even make eye contact.
“Well… I made an exception this time and only had one drink.”
“I don’t mind. “Isn’t it your choice whether or not Namgung Daehyeop dies from urinary stones?”
I don’t know if he gets angry when I tell him not to drink, but saying it like this makes me even more scared.
Only Monk Abi was smiling brightly.
“Akukuku, it seems that Binseung showed an ugly behavior after a long time.”
Gokcha is a Buddhist slang term for alcohol.
Since he is smiling with a middle-aged, wrinkled face, I can’t bear to say anything more to Namgoong Woon.
That means he knows Jin Cheon-hee’s personality very well.
“Anyway, you think you survived because Monk Abi saw you.”
After organizing everything neatly, only then did Gongson-yeong talk about the incident.
“Kuhm. Anyway, the work begins with this man, Dan Shishan, one of the richest people in Fujian Province. It is said that this person entrusted the goods to the Unryongpyo Bureau and it was reishi mushrooms, a specialty of Jilin Province. “Don’t you know that Jilin Province reishi mushrooms are more popular because they have better medicinal properties than reishi mushrooms from other regions?”
Jin Cheon-hee responded to those words.
“yes. “We at Baekrin Uigak are always indebted to you.”
In particular, there were many herbalists in Jilin Province who worked with Baeklin Uigak.
It is not normal to maintain loyalty even under the control of the shipper’s cabinet.
Baeklin Uigak also always paid attention to Jilin Province.
When Jin Cheon-hee responded positively, Gong Son-yeong seemed happy and gained confidence and continued speaking.
“Among them, isn’t the special reishi mushroom so rare that you have to pay twice its weight in gold to get it? “I had to bring a lot of reishi mushrooms and deliver them to Dan Seok-san, but bandits also appeared along the way.”
“If it’s that much of a target, the guards guarding it shouldn’t be ordinary people, right?”
When Namgoongun asked, Gongsunyoung nodded.
“of course. In addition, quite a number of numbers were allocated. Nevertheless, everyone was wiped out. It is said that there were not many enemies who lost their will to fight and ran away, so it was virtually wiped out.”
Sima Hyun hummed.
“Our Hao Mun caught some of the people who escaped, but they were all bandits.”
Jin Cheon-hee said.
“Then it must have been quantity rather than quality.”
“okay. brother. The amount was overwhelmingly large. “Are there any variables that come to mind here?”
“….”
Sima Hyeon asks, as if testing Jin Tianxi. Jin Cheon-hee answered immediately after a moment of blinking.
“If that number of people had moved, there would be no way that Pyosa and Pyodou wouldn’t have noticed, so I think an attack would only be possible if they had already set up an ambush and waited. If this assumption is correct… it means that the destination has been exposed, and.”
Jin Cheon-hee reached a conclusion.
Then he asked back.
“What if Danseoksan Mountain and Noknim 18 Houses were a well-planned trap?”
Everyone except Sima Hyeon opened their eyes in surprise at those words.
“My sister, you overturned a family that the secret agents had worked so hard to build for three days in one go.”
Amid everyone’s admiration, Jin Cheon-hee asked back.
“You must have demanded a huge penalty from the bureau, right?”
“I see. In case of an accident, I paid an additional fee and signed a penalty clause in the contract before the ticket. “That’s what we usually do when transporting expensive items.”
i get it.
In the district where Jin Cheon-hee was from, it was so common that it came up just by opening the newspaper.
‘This is insurance fraud.’
As black boxes became more popular, the frequency decreased, but even in the 1990s, it was not uncommon for the person who hit the car and the person who drove the car to get hit for insurance money.
There was even a comedy movie made about this.
“To move that many people, you need a lot of money and supplies. “It would not have been easy to wait for a long time, so I would have known the route in advance.”
To ambush 100 people, 100 people need places to sleep and food. I also need a place to cook.
If you do this, traces will remain, so hiding in the mountains for a long time to avoid prying eyes is very tiring.
It is not easy to ambush so many people, perhaps twenty or thirty, like bandits.
“The path used is slightly different for each country, but since this is a ticket that moves this amount of money, I would have talked to the client in advance.”
Jin Cheon-hee folded her arms, thought for a while, and then asked.
“I guess you paid the penalty?”
“Even if Danseoksan and Noknim 18chae had made a deal, other big customers would have left if they didn’t pay. From their perspective, wouldn’t Danseoksan have been hit by lightning? “If you want to get solid evidence, you will eventually have to catch Nokrimsip8chae and get a statement.”
“Hmm.”
In the end, I paid the penalty and found the 18 Green Forest Houses.
Once you destroy them and find the evidence, everything goes smoothly after that.
You can get the penalty back from Dan Seok-san and announce this to everyone.
Kang Ho-style knife logic will be involved in the process, but if there is clear evidence, I have no choice but to give in.
It doesn’t matter even if we don’t find evidence that Dan Seok-san hit.
All we have to do is use this as an excuse to completely wipe out the Green Forest Eighteen Houses.
If there are no bandits, there is no robbery.
Isn’t it simple logic!
Of course, bandits are like cockroaches and they will jump out no matter how many times you kill them, but at least if you subdue the 18 Green Forests, things will be clean and quiet for a while.
“It was the will of the head of the Gongsonhyeon family that decided this. “As the head of the family, my sister sent letters of cooperation everywhere.”
Gongsunyoung smiled brightly and told everyone about this.
The head of the family, Gongsunhyeon, hates people and has a weak body from birth. Although she rarely comes out, she has a Gongsunyoung.
There is no one who does not know that Gongsunyoung serves as the eyes, ears, and sword of the head of the family, Gongsunhyeon.
Namgoong Woon said.
“First of all, the Namgung family is strongly in favor of this. Fujian Province is not far from Anhui Province by land. “Isn’t it the right time to sweep away the Safa factions and start a new business?”
‘You’re doing it to expand your business.’
The place where Sapa was swept away. I don’t know who will take root, but the people who contributed to this work will definitely have a large stake.
It looks like he smelled the money.
Jin Cheonhee thought about this and nodded.
Monk Avi continued.
“Botamun will not hesitate to save the people from a disaster. In addition, the young poor monks in the text had too much energy and were causing accidents on the island, so I brought them here to help them get to know Gangho.”
She spoke calmly, like a dog owner taking a dog for a walk on a spring day.
Namgoongun thought.
‘Your tone is very gentle.’
Even though the swordsmen of Botamun have a dark side to the world, I got goosebumps knowing how sharp their swords were.
Still, it was natural that they would be of great help.
‘I guess I’ll have to feed it a lot.’
They weren’t officially released, but they were swordsmen in their late teens who were brought in by Monk Abi.
Vegetarianism is recommended, but Botamun is a place where meat is often eaten.
Dang-ah was like that too, but at that age, she would eat scary food.
Finally, Jin Cheon-hee spoke.
“We, Baekrin-ui Gak, also agree with this. “We will do our best to stabilize the lives of people in Fujian Province and improve local health.”
He’s saying crazy things on his own that don’t seem like a strong person, but no one here seems to care about that.
There’s no way that everyone doesn’t know what kind of guy Il-gwang is.
‘I heard that the newly-received Baekrin-hyeon is developing at a frightening pace, and they are probably forcing health training as well.’
‘A life where you have to wash your hands with soap as soon as you get home.’
‘There is no one who doesn’t know that his administrative skills are superior to those of most prefectures.’
‘As expected, Gagara~ To my brother, Hyeop is an active person, so it must be something like that.’
Now, the last one is Haomun Jinhyeolbang, who has the most financial power.
In this crazy group where money has more say than any other cause, Sima Hyun grinned.
“Hao-mun decided to receive several benefits later on. Even so, as the villages in the area grew, more guests were needed to deal with the envoys. Of course, Haomen Jinhyeolbang will help with this.”
Jin Cheon-hee said.
“It was a unanimous decision.”
Namgoong Woon said.
“Movement is by land and sea. “It would be better to travel using both routes.”
Jin Cheon-hee said.
“It’s like setting up a siege.”
Namgoongwoon nodded.
“At first glance, it is easy to think of the Nokrim 18 Houses as bandits, but they are just a group of sects that hunt civilians. If you swing a sword in the mountains, you become a bandit. If you swing a sword in a river, you become an enemy. “This is why it has been so difficult to subdue them.”
Jin Cheon-hee said.
“So, while we are clearing out the bandits, we are coming down from the mountain to track down the bandits?”
“That’s the way it is.”
That was the reason why Master assigned so many people.
This means that if you are going to subdue something, don’t do it twice.
Sima Xuan raised his hand.
“Hao-mun will go by land with Baeklin’s Pavilion~”
Nam Gung-un objected to those words.
“In that case, wouldn’t it be more efficient for the Namgung family to go by land?”
Gongsunyoung said.
“First of all, we, the Gongsun family, want to move together with Botamun by sea. Since there are a lot of people at Baekrin Uigak, it would be nice if at least one person could come to the sea route… How about Nangung Daehyup help you?”
At those words, Namgoongun let out a small moan.
“Uhm… I can’t help it.”
So it was decided.
The ones moving by sea are the Botamun Gongsun and the Namgung families.
These are places where maritime trade is the main activity, so it is more convenient.
The remaining land route is Haomun Bailin Pavilion.
We decided to move from these two places.
