Heavenly Inquisition Sword Chapter 1524

Episode 1519. Business isn’t going well, is it?

Yeon Seo-yeon said she had work to do and she went back home but she stayed behind in Seok-gyeongjang.

Since she had nothing to do at home she just stayed by Yeonjeongwoon’s side.

Yeon Jeong-woon must have been bored just sitting around so she turned the TV back on.

As he flipped through the channels what he chose was the news.

The same scene was played over and over again but I was anxious and kept watching the news.

It is not because Incheon and Seoul are close but because I am worried about my son who is serving in the military.

I took out the Korean language textbook I received from the academy where I was studying and read it.

Yeon Jeong-woon watched the news in Seok Kyeong-jang’s hall all morning.

Yeon Jeok-ha who was worse off quietly gave up.

“uncle.”

“huh? why?”

“Aren’t there too few customers?”

“Normally there are no people in the morning. “Morning is preparation time not selling time.”

“Oh then are you coming for lunch?”

“It varies from time to time. “Isn’t it a bit burdensome to eat Chinese food lightly?”

“What about in the evening?”

“People don’t eat out much on weekdays… so it’s hard to have expectations.”

“….”

Yeonjeokha was speechless at Yeonjeongwoon’s words.

It was said that there were hardly any customers from morning to lunch and dinner.

‘Are restaurants really like this?’

However when he looked back on his memories he realized that the restaurants he used to go to in the past were not like that.

I’ve never been there in the morning so I don’t know but lunch and dinner were crowded with customers.

After thinking that far it was time for Yeon Jeok-ha to ask again.

Familiar faces opened the door and entered the store.

Gu In-hoe who was in charge of guiding them to Korea and Joo Hyun-sik the president of the Chinatown Chinese organization were the guides.

Yeonjeongwoon who was watching TV got up from her seat and approached her guests.

Joo Hyun-sik smiled and said as Yeon Jeong-woon looked at him and tilted his head.

“It’s been a while. “I am Joo Hyun-sik from Chinatown.”

Only then did Yeon Jeongwoon hurriedly bow down with a surprised expression on his face.

“Chairman Joo please come quickly. “It’s been a while since I saw you.”

Before becoming a naturalized Korean citizen Yeon Jeong-un also followed his father to Chinese gatherings.

However after his father passed away he distanced himself from the Chinese community so he did not immediately recognize the old Chairman Joo Hyeon-sik.

“This is the first time we’ve met since President Yeon’s late father’s funeral. “How have you been?”

“yes. “But what happened?”

Joo Hyun-sik pointed to the recruiting club and said.

“Greetings. This is Manager Koo from Hong Kong. “He belongs to the most powerful organization in the Chinese community.”

When Yeon Jeong-woon glanced at Joo Hyun-sik’s introduction Gu In-hoe bowed his head first.

“I saw you yesterday right? “It’s a recruiting event.”

“Oh yeah….”

Yeon Jeong-woon received the greetings from the recruitment meeting with a worried expression.

He thought he had lost contact with the Chinese community after his father’s death but he does not know what happened now.

“I was curious to see how Mr. Yeon was doing so I asked him to go see the president when he met him. “See you again Teacher Yeon.”

At the end of his speech Gu In-hoe nodded to Yeon Jeok-ha.

Joo Hyun-sik also seemed to think it was time to say hello.

“See you again Teacher Yeon.”

“Oh yeah….”

Yeonjeokha suddenly received greetings from two people.

Meanwhile Yeon Jeong-woon felt puzzled when Chairman Joo and Gu In-hoe treated Yeon Jeok-ha as if they were their masters.

But he didn’t ask that here.

After the introductions between the two parties were over Hyunsik Joo stepped forward without notice.

“Manager Koo said he was going to see Teacher Yeon so I came along on my own. Using this excuse we can also see each other’s faces. “Isn’t that right?”

“Welcome.”

“But there’s no need to feel burdened. “I’m thinking of just having lunch and leaving.”

“Yes what would you like to have?”

When Joo Hyun-sik named the dish Yeon Jeong-woon disappeared into the kitchen.

Gu In-hoe who was watching Yeon Jeok-ha spoke as if making an excuse.

“While I was looking for a place to invest I thought of Mr. Yeon so I stopped by.”

“Oh yeah.”

“I plan to return once I find an investment site and complete the contract. Until then I will be staying at the Incheon Renaissance Hotel. “If you ever need my help please contact me at any time.”

“Of course.”

Yeonjeokha turned his attention to Korean textbooks again.

Gu In-hoe and Joo Hyun-sik who were standing with embarrassed faces sat down in appropriate seats.

After a while the ordered dish came out.

Gu In-hoe who was eating his meal put down his chopsticks first.

“Maybe because I ate breakfast late I’m already full.”

Joo Hyun-sik also quietly joined in.

“Me too. “Recently my wife Seonghwa went on a diet and my stomach has shrunk so I can’t eat much.”

The food in front of the two was almost the same.

There were even dishes that maintained their original form even after the meal was finished.

The two rinsed their mouths with refreshing tea and then stood up.

Joo Hyun-sik who approached the cash register one step faster than the recruitment committee held out his card and said.

“It was a good meal.”

“I don’t know if I can take all of this?”

“Take it all. “Anyway I came here today to help increase sales at your store.”

“…I will pay 280000 won.”

“are you okay. It’s a corporate card anyway. The food suited my taste. “Our meeting will have to be held at Seokgyeongjang from now on.”

Joo Hyun-sik lied without even putting saliva on his lips.

The statement that ‘we will hold a meeting at Seokgyeongjang in the future’ was true but the statement that ‘the food was delicious’ was an obvious lie.

If the dish really tasted good I would have eaten a little more than I did now.

Yeon Jeong-woon unaware of such speed smiled and pushed the card into the card reader.

Soon after he returned the printed receipt and card to Chairman Joo with both hands.

“thank you.”

“It was good. It’s spring again.”

Joo Hyun-sik glanced at Yeon Jeok-ha and went out first.

Unlike him Gu In-hoe left after saying goodbye to Yeon Jeok-ha and Yeon Jeong-un one by one.

After a while Yeon Jeong-woon who had cleared the table collapsed in front of Yeon Jeok-ha and made a noise.

“Ah! “It’s been a while since I showed off my skills and my stomach is all sore.”

“Hey uncle.”

“why?”

“We should eat something too.”

“Would you like some chicken or pizza?”

“It’s not Jjajang or Jjamppong fried rice?”

“It’s so hard for me to work in the kitchen alone. “I made a lot of money so let’s order it.”

“Can I order something like that at a Chinese restaurant?”

“What can’t be done? “They say we’ll eat what we want.”

“I’m fine… is that okay…?”

“What are you worried about becoming the boss? chicken? pizza?”

“Pizza.”

“I’m a chicken. Then I order chicken and pizza. “You two can share it.”

Yeon Jeong-un placed an order on his cell phone and looked at Yeon Jeok-ha.

“Why do you look at me like that?”

“Why are Chairman Joo and Manager Koo so condescending to you?”

“Ah… I guess you were curious about that.”

“Aren’t you curious that Chairman Joo and Manager Koo have a hard time with people who are much younger than them? Are you a tycoon from the mainland?”

“It can’t be. “I told you before that I saved a businessman from the city of Sibun City.”

“The person who said he was in the liquor business?”

“Yes they said he was actually an official of the Hong Kong Triad. “He was almost killed by the Chinese Black Society when he tried to advance into China.”

At that moment Yeon Jeong-woon’s mouth opened wide.

“omg! That person was a Triad official? “The guide to Korea that the executive sent was Manager Koo?”

“yes.”

“The Triad was the ‘most powerful organization in the Chinese community’ that Chairman Joo mentioned. I thought Chairman Joo was watching out for Manager Koo… but it was a triad. “I’ve only heard of the Triad but it’s fascinating.”

“Don’t act like you know them because they are dangerous people.”

“Don’t worry. “Will the Triad ever meet an ordinary person like me again?”

“I guess so.”

“Are you okay? “After that didn’t they tell you to join the Triad?”

“Not at all.”

“You were lucky. “They say that once you get involved with the Triad it’s not easy to get out.”

“I guess they thought I was useless because I was single.”

“Anyway it would be better not to hang out with Manager Koo often from now on.”

“yes.”

At the end of the story the delivery man delivered chicken and pizza.

After eating chicken and pizza for lunch Yeonjeokha lounged around at Seokgyeongjang until dinner.

I watched Seokgyeongjang for an entire day from morning to evening.

At 8:30 in the evening I left Seokgyeongjang with Yeon Jeong-woon who was studying for a wedding.

Yeon Jeong-woon was delighted that he had made 380000 won in sales today alone.

However Yeon Jeok-ha’s expression was not bright.

Of the 380000 won 280000 won was sold by Chairman Joo and Manager Koo.

Excluding that Seokgyeongjang’s daily sales are 100000 won.

I don’t know how they manage to run a Chinese restaurant with just that much sales.

“uncle?”

“huh?”

“Business isn’t going well is it?”

Yeon Jeong-woon paused at the words of her nephew who sharply pricked her painful spot.

“What are you talking about? “You saw the sales today.”

“Chairman Joo and Manager Koo don’t come here every day.”

“….”

“Is it possible to run a Chinese restaurant with that level of sales?”

“That building is mine.”

“ah!”

An exclamation flowed from Yeonjeokha’s mouth.

He was the owner of the building! That was something I had never thought about at all.

“If my father hadn’t passed it on as an inheritance the Chinese restaurant would have closed long ago.”

“Is cooking right for you?”

Yeon Jeok-ha carefully examined Yeon Jeong-un’s complexion.

Previously I would have pointed out the cooking but considering his feelings I changed my tone.

“What I learned was stealing so I learned how to cook Chinese food so I’m going to do it.”

For some reason I kept my mouth shut at the self-deprecatory words.

Looking closely Yeon Jeong-woon seemed to know that there was a problem with his cooking.

‘So you probably ate chicken and pizza for lunch right?’

It could be because he was tired of cooking or he didn’t want to eat his own cooking.

Either way it was not a desirable thing for the owner and chef of a Chinese restaurant.

After that the two didn’t speak until they got home.

The next day.

At around 9 a.m. I took my Korean language textbook and went to the academy.

In front of the academy building I briefly thought ‘Do I have to go this far to learn Korean?’ I thought about it but then shook my head.

To become friendly with Yeon Jeong-un he must help him with his work.

To do that he had to learn Korean first.

Moreover now he was in a situation where he was receiving help from Yeon Jeong-woon’s family.

‘That’s not right.’

After thumbing through the Korean textbook he entered the academy building.

1 p.m.

After finishing Korean language school Yeonhae headed to the library instead of Seokgyeongjang.

Since going to Seokgyeongjang won’t help he plans to focus on his studies for the time being.

It seemed like there was chaos just yesterday but the world became quiet in one day.

This is because unlike Seoul Suwon and Chuncheon there is no Black Spear in Incheon.

To the people of Incheon the Black Spear was a surprise but it was just that.

Those who had relatives in Seoul were heartbroken but for other people what happened in Seoul was nothing more than a Buddhist sight across the river.

I was rather surprised by the boldness of those who were in love.

Is it because their courage has grown as they have been in a confrontational relationship with North Korea for a long time?
