Episode 1233 I heard that’s true? (3)
“Da Danju!”
“Why are you making such a fuss?”
“Soldier Gu has arrived!”
“what? already?”
The face of Guo Bao, the leader of the Ten Thousand Dongsimdan, turned white.
“Wasn’t it scheduled to arrive after two more days?”
“I know that too, but…”
Guo Bo hurriedly looked outside. We haven’t yet prepared a ship to head to Haenam, but the family name has already arrived. It was two days ahead of the scheduled date.
“How do I do this…”
Kwak Bo, who was looking at the ships that were still under construction in bewilderment, suddenly shouted in surprise.
“This is not the time! “Where are you now, soldier?”
“They say you entered the outskirts a little while ago!”
“Doyeol! Everyone stop what you are doing and line up! The military is coming! What are you doing, you damn bastards? “I tell you to line up right away!”
Those who heard the word “military” were frightened and hurriedly ran toward Guo Bo. There was a commotion around, and the workers who were working looked at Kwak Bo with puzzled faces.
“You just have to do your job! “Don’t stop your hands!”
“yes.”
The warriors of the 10,000 warriors who quickly gathered together lined up with tense faces. My gaze was fixed on the forest path leading here.
Again.
Thick drops of sweat ran down the faces of some people. It wasn’t just because of the hot sun.
Originally, Dongsimdan is in charge of the management of Maninbang. It is safe to say that it is a direct organization of the Hu family name, along with the military warfare that serves as the limb of the Hu family name.
It was natural for me to be nervous as my immediate supervisor suddenly showed up on site earlier than scheduled.
“Stand upright again!”
“yes!”
The sound of someone wiping dry needles rang clearly.
After a while, a group of unmanned people appeared through the path between the bushes in front.
Jerk. Jerk. Jerk.
Hu Jiaming appeared with the armed forces and walked to the shore at a not very fast pace.
In the death-like silence, Hu Jiaming’s gaze moved from left to right. Although his face was indescribably cold, his eyes were scanning everything that was happening on the shore without missing a single thing.
“See you soldiers!”
“See you soldiers!”
The members of the Concentric Unit who were lined up knelt in unison and expressed their respect.
Everyone’s room. Now, it is a formidable force that dominates not only Guangdong but all of Gangnam.
Even inside, there are only two people who can bow down on their knees. The only names are Jang Il-so, the owner of the ark, and his nickname, a soldier.
Just by looking at this scene, it would not be difficult to guess how strong Hu Jiamyeong’s position was within the Maninbang.
Guo Bo lay flat on his stomach and glanced at Hu Jiaming. However, it was not easy to read his thoughts from his always cold expression.
“Sobriety.”
At that time, Hu Jiaming’s voice flew in as if to catch Guo Bao off guard. Kwak Bo, who flinched, quickly bowed his head more deeply. The white sand of the coast stuck to his forehead, which was wet with cold sweat.
“Report.”
“Yes soldier! We have completed requisitioning ships for Haenam, and we are currently building additional ships as instructed. However, due to the recent bad weather, the construction of the ship has not yet been completed.”
After speaking up to that point, Guo Bo kept his head still as much as possible and raised his eyes upward to look at Hu Jiaming’s expression once again. Then he hurriedly lowered his eyes.
“These two days! Drying will be completed in the next two days!”
Sabak.
At that time, I heard a small sound in my ear. Kwak Bo, who realized that it was the sound of footsteps on the white sand, arched his back and lowered his head deeper.
Sabak.
Hu Jiaming’s feet stopped right in front of his head.
Guo Bo’s back and face were all wet with sweat.
“Did you say two days?”
Guo Bo raised his head, trembling, with a pale face. When I met Hu Jiaming’s cool gaze, my body felt like it was being pierced.
“You have a knack for making things interesting.”
“Former military…”
“Ask me again, sobriety. “What did I tell you?”
“The soldier… will be coming to the room with his troops in two days, so he told me to complete all preparations for dispatch to Haenam by then.”
“okay. “I definitely said that.”
As Guo Bao swallowed dry saliva, a cool voice sounded in his ears again.
“Did you mean to finish building the ship in time for my arrival?”
“⋯⋯.”
“It seems like the room has become quite relaxed while Ryeonju was away. “I see that the complacent thought that there will be no problem as long as I finish my work on time has entered the head of Danju.”
“Please kill me, soldier!”
Guo Bao pounded his head and bowed.
When people around the world hear the word ‘Maninbang’, they usually think of Jang Il-so’s name and his cruelty.
However, the person who is most feared within Maninbang is not actually Jang Ilso. To the general public, Jang Il-so was a being floating on a cloud and an object of envy, not a being that touched their skin.
Moreover, Jang Il-so is not particularly interested in details. As a result, most of the things that happen in the room are not reported to him. The person who managed the provinces on his behalf was Ho Ga-myeong.
In other words, it was Ho Ga-myeong, rather than Jang Il-so, who created the system of Man-in-bang, which was extremely thorough and unbelievable for Sa-pa.
The enemy of Maninbang is afraid of Jang Ilso, but the bando of Maninbang is afraid of Hu Jiaming. The person who punishes them is not the enemy or Jang Il-so, but the household name.
“Tell me.”
At that time, Hu Jiaming’s voice penetrated Guo Bao’s ears again.
“What kind of punishment would be appropriate for someone who failed to properly follow orders from superiors?”
Guo Bo bit his lip.
If the person in front of me was someone else, I might have tried to make an excuse. However, the household name he knew was not one for which an excuse could be accepted. All orders given by the household name were made after considering the person’s ability to carry out the name, the situation, and even all the variables that could arise. Therefore, no reason can be an excuse.
“According to the rules of the bar, those who fail to carry out small orders due to lack of ability are subject to demotion.”
“ability?”
At that moment, Hu Jiaming’s even more subdued voice tightened Guo Bao’s heart.
“Why is someone who lacks ability sitting in the position of sobriety?”
“Former military…”
“And is it really because of lack of ability?”
Kwak Bo could not bear to say anything.
“Other bandits went to other places to fight the enemy for room, but the one left behind was enjoying himself as if he were a king. “I’m still holding on to something that would have been done a few days ago if I had put my mind to it.”
“⋯⋯.”
“Bring it.”
“yes!”
As soon as the Hu family name was announced, the civil servant at the military post behind him took out a scroll from his chest and held it out.
Hu Jiaming took it with an indifferent hand and unfolded it. After silently checking the contents, he threw the scroll he was holding in front of Guo Bo.
“Check.”
“This…”
As Hu Jiaming looked down without much explanation, Guo Bo picked up the scroll and read what was written on it with trembling eyes.
Soon, Guo Bao’s complexion turned pale.
The scroll detailed, day by day, what Guo Bao did while Jang Il-so and Hu Jia-myeong were away.
‘What the hell is this…’
This is not something that can be confirmed overnight. To put it conversely, it means that Hu Jiaming, in that urgent situation, headed to the Yangtze River and kept a watchful eye on Guo Bo, who remained in the rear.
“What do you have to say?”
“Former military…”
“Did you have fun?”
The corner of Hu Jiaming’s mouth twitched slightly. To others, it might look like a frown, but to Hu Jiaming, it was a smile.
“The bandits are shedding blood on the front lines, and those who remain in the rear are having a good time going in and out and having a good time, even though they can’t do their best to provide support.”
“Please save me, soldier!”
Guo Bao hit his forehead hard on the ground. This is not someone for whom excuses will work. The only way to preserve one’s life is to admit everything and beg for mercy.
Hu Jiaming looked down at Guo Bao with an emotionless face.
“I don’t particularly hate people like you. “It’s too greedy to expect more from someone who was born that way.”
“⋯⋯.”
“But I am also a soldier of all nations. As you know, the Ark hates pigs with fat bellies the most in the world. Especially the pig that fills its stomach by sucking the blood of its comrades.”
“Gu-gun…”
“Janggan(長干).”
“yes! Military.”
“He will be banned from martial arts, flogged, and sentenced to six months of hard labor.”
“yes!”
“All assets accumulated so far will be confiscated.”
“yes!”
Guo Bao fell flat on his face, pounding his head and shouting.
“Thank you for your mercy! Military!”
In some ways, it is a harsh punishment. As compensation for not completing the work on time.
Nevertheless, Kwak Bo was just happy. This was because I knew that it was an extremely merciful disposition considering that the family name was given.
However, his relief was shattered by Hu Jiaming’s voice.
“And when you return him from labor, cut off the tendons in his useless legs.”
“Old military!”
Guo Bao opened his eyes wide and looked at Hu Jiaming in shock at the sudden words. Hu Jiaming said coldly.
“I guess I’m just doing useless things because I have so much energy left. “If you can’t walk on your own feet, you won’t be able to concentrate on your work.”
“Old military! Military! Wrong! Please! That’s all…! Military!”
“Perform.”
“yes.”
Those standing behind Hu Jiaming grabbed the screaming Guo Bo and dragged him away.
A desperate scream echoed across the coast, but Hu Jiaming did not even look in that direction.
“Who is the assistant manager?”
“It’s me, soldier.”
“Complete the construction of the ship without a hitch.”
“yes! “Until two days later…”
“You don’t understand what I’m saying. This means drying it properly. I guess they just made it roughly to fit the time. Check again from the beginning to make sure there are no problems and bring a proper plan to me. “If something goes wrong with your stomach, you will be unable to die even if you want to.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
Hu Jiaming’s eyes slowly fell on the workers. There was a lot of tension in the hammering movement.
“I’m going to my room.”
“yes!”
As Hu Jiaming turned around, Jang Gan quickly followed suit.
“Military. “If you want to set an example, just kill him.”
“Not required.”
The nickname was cut off as if there was nothing to hear until the end.
“There’s no need to kill him if he’s useful somewhere. Killing and getting rid of something is only briefly exhilarating. “The important thing is to use even those guys properly to benefit the room.”
“Please blame my ignorance for not understanding the opinions.”
Hu Jiaming walked away without answering.
‘I understand why the Ark cares about the rear.’
Even Danju of the room, who knows better than anyone else what kind of person Jang Il-so is and what kind of person his family name is, commits evil as soon as he is out of the sight of the two people. So what is so great about those below them?
Even if Haenam does just a little bit, there will be plenty of people who will sympathize with it or take advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of it.
‘So I need to make sure I organize it.’
Hu Jiaming slowly turned his head and looked at Haenam Island in the distance.
“hmm?”
“⋯⋯Why are you doing that?”
Hu Jiaming, who had been silent for a while while narrowing his eyes and examining the sea, shook his head slightly.
“no. It must be a fish. “I guess I got nervous.”
“Yes soldier.”
“Bite the workers.”
“⋯⋯Yes?”
“There will be a typhoon soon.”
Jang-gan looked out into the distance out to sea at the unexpected words. As expected, the waves had become quite high and dark clouds were gathering in the distance.
The weather in Namhae is extremely unpredictable.
“There might be a little delay in the schedule.”
“This is an expected variable.”
He said it as if his nickname was insignificant.
“Take care of the ships you are building properly. “I guess it’s not an ordinary typhoon.”
“Yes, I will keep that in mind!”
Rumbling!
A faint sound of thunder could be heard from afar. Hu Jiaming chuckled.
“From Haenam’s perspective, we must hope that the typhoon will never end.”
The smile on his lips was extremely cold.
