‘This can't be real.’

My eyes were shaking violently as I looked at the ledger..

Bok Man-chun looked at me like that and said,.

“As you can see here,…….”

The moment he opened the ledger, a feast of countless numbers appeared..

Understand what you can understand, and skip over what you cannot understand..

So in the end the conclusion is this.

“……Even if you try to eat and die, there is no point. I don't have any spare money.”

bang!

I was dumbfounded and hit the table with my palm..

“Does this make sense? The property I inherited was not just a penny or two. All that money is gone?”

The many legacies inherited from Old Man Heo.

Originally it wasn't my money, but since Cheongcheon took over the will and its rights, it was now my money like my blood..

But now, Fu Man-chun was saying that my bloody money was wasted..

‘Could this person be embezzling?…….’

As my eyes narrowed as I looked at Bok Man-chun, Bok Man-chun, who was astounded by her long life as a romantic woman, jumped up..

“I swear I didn't do it! It's all because they invested in the business. Didn't Confucius also tell us to invest aggressively in various businesses?!”

“I've said that before, but it still doesn't make sense..”

“Confucius. Think about it carefully.”

Bok Man-chun protested with full of resentment..

“When Heo Noya was alive, he quit the usury business, which was his biggest source of income, and he also quit all profitable business, and he also quit all illegal work. Where will the money come from now??”

“…….”

“What we are left with now are normal businesses such as guest shops, banjeoms, runners, blacksmith shops, and merchants and pyoguks who just made up their names to save on taxes. These are all things that were not originally our main business, so we have to expand them. Do you agree with this??”

“Umm. what.”

As I listened, I realized it was true, so I nodded with my arms crossed..

Fu Manchun brought some documents and waved them in front of me..

“Look at this. Recently, I bought a store for sale in a good location called Jamryong Banjeom, and a large manor in front of Cheongryong Academy. It also cost a lot of money to build a new blacksmith shop. The old man above him. My skills are good, but I only buy expensive equipment.!”

“……He's kind of like that..”

When I thought of Wi Ji-yeol, who argued that the better a craftsman is, the better tools he should use, I couldn't help but sigh..

Bok Man-chun said energetically, “Look at that.”.

“Extra money in this situation? There's so much I've built up that it's getting to the point where I need to invest..”

“no way…….”

“Don't worry. I'm not that bad of a person to go into business by incurring debt without getting permission from Confucius..”

I sighed and looked at him at that shameless answer..

“For something like that, you completely destroyed the storehouse..”

“Confucius. I swear to my wife and children that there is not a single investment I would lose money on..”

Fu Manchun leaned towards me and said with a serious face..

“Confucius. I am confident. Once the business here is firmly established, I have a desire to properly set up a business and go on a commercial trip, and also to invite trustworthy friends to create a private country. Of course, I won't do it unless Confucius gives permission..”

Bok Man-chun, who drank the tea in front of him as if he was thirsty, continued speaking..

“A legacy inherited from Confucius. That's a lot of money. If you leave it to Jungwon Battlefield and only receive interest, you can live affluently for the rest of your life. Confucius, if that's what you want, I'll sell it all. The principal can still be fully recovered..”

“…….”

I looked straight into Fu Manchun’s eyes..

This man certainly had the temperament to be a businessman..

He invested generously in the present, seeking greater profits in the future rather than small profits now..

‘I'm not someone who will take your money and run away..’

Since we visited the Ronin market together, I have trusted him as a person and entrusted him with the management of my inheritance and business..

‘It's a little embarrassing to come back with this result.…….’

Bok Man-chun's eyes were burning with ambition to succeed as a merchant..

After a short silence, I gathered my thoughts and asked:.

“Commander-in-Chief Bok. So, how long do you think it will take for the business to return to profitability??”

My words brought a bright smile to Bok Manchun’s lips..

“One year to recoup your entire investment! From then on, all that remains is to sit on the money cushion.!”

One year.

It may be a little difficult right now, but considering the profits that will be made after that, it was a time worth taking..

I nodded and said.

“All right. Proceed like this. I will continue to trust and entrust only General Bok..”

“thank you You will never regret it!”

“And the top and the sign saying that it is being prepared..”

“yes!”

“At this point, I will also make a new name..”

“Do you have a name in mind??”

I smiled and nodded..

“The top is the top of the white dragon. The symbol is Baekryongpyoguk..”

Although the establishment of Baekryonghakgwan took place across the water, it didn't seem like a bad idea to give the same name to the top and the top..

“Because it’s White Dragon Merchants… … . It's a name that seems like it will one day become the top midfielder..”

Bok Man-chun also chuckled as if he liked that name..

* * *

“So, here and there… … Right now, all the ways I can make money are blocked.?”

“……hmm?”

“no way…….”

Ak Yeon-ho and Myeong Il-oh, who were listening to the story while eagerly eating and drinking the alcohol and meat I bought for them, hardened and anxiety seeped into them..

Guys. Yes, it's too late.

“That's why.”

Sigh.

I smiled and put my arm around the two guys' shoulders to prevent them from running away..

“Do you guys have any money??”

“Cough! Cough! you're a scoundrel?!”

“I wondered why he suddenly bought me a drink... … Was it to collect money??”

Ak Yeon-ho stopped by while drinking, and Myung Il-oh put down the snack he was eating and looked at me with an absurd expression..

“Please do me a favor. I'll pay you back when I get my monthly salary next month..”

“No, where do we get the money??”

“Well, we’re not in a good situation these days either.…….”

The two guys tried to move away from their buttocks and sneak away, but I tightened my grip on their shoulders..

And with his eyes shining sharply, he looked at the two men's battlefields..

“Why are you doing this? One of them is the son of a Shandong musician who is not envied by the five generations, and the head of the Myeong family is said to be a rich man who also runs a private country.?”

As we hung out together often, I became familiar with their family situation and financial situation..

After a while, the two guys, whose front bags became as light as feathers, looked like they were crying..

“Black and white. you are not even human…….”

“Since there was nothing to eat, the new instructor, Wolbong, was the size of a rat.…….”

I patted the thick bag and smiled brightly at them both..

“now. I will buy everything today, so eat as much as you can. Should I order some more drinks and snacks??”

“What can I order you to do? We buy all of this with our own money.!”

“……When my father told me that I would be ruined if I made the wrong friend, I should have listened carefully.…….”

The two guys lamented about their situation for a while and eventually ordered more drinks and snacks..

Now that his pockets were empty, he was determined to eat and drink until his nose was crooked..

“……You guys have to go to work tomorrow too, but it’s okay to be like this.?”

I tried to raise that question, but it didn't seem to be heard by the two who had already started pouring and drinking..

“Oh, I don’t know, I don’t know.~”

“go to work? Eat this!”

Human greed is endless and we repeat the same mistakes..

These guys will be suffering from hangovers all day tomorrow, and will regret today's drinking party after being woken up by a senior instructor..

And tomorrow we'll come out for a drink again.

“Hahaha! Let's eat and die today!”

“older brother! Let's call Jegal Sojeo too.!”

I looked at the two guys who were going crazy with happy eyes..

“Ugh… … . Where did all these idiots come from?…….”

After a while, Zhuge So-young, who joined us after finishing his night shift, drank quietly at first, as he always did, but at some point naturally blew on the bottle..

After emptying several bottles in an instant, her face turned red and she suddenly started cursing at her senior instructor, Namgungsu..

“Because he's really crazy.!”

……It seems like everyone has a lot of tantrums at work..

Anyway, I was able to receive great financial help from Zhuge Xiaoying..

“So this and that…….”

“Money… … no……?”

After roughly hearing my story, Zhuge Xiaoyeong started crying (why on earth?) and said, “It’s not much, but please add it…” … .” And handed over his entire wallet..

Of course, as a person with conscience and common sense, I did not do something so senseless as to swallow a drunk man's entire bag..

I took only half and returned it..

“Sozer. put this away.”

“……money? and! Are you giving me pocket money? lol. Thank you…….”

A red-faced face bowed its head as it politely accepted the bag with both hands. My conscience was pricked and I cleared my throat..

“……Hmm. If I told you now, you wouldn't even remember, but I will definitely pay you back the money I borrowed from you..”

“lol! Thank you!”

“wait for a sec! Then our money?”

“Let's skip the trivial things.”

“Hahaha! drink more!”

As the drinking scene became more and more crazy, my wallet got thicker..

But I couldn't just like it.

‘This isn't enough.’

Although the money I borrowed(?) from three people was quite a lot, it was impossible to buy the elixir I needed with this money..

In addition, we must purchase the equipment and materials requested by Wegeothermal..

‘There is no place to make money, but there are many places to go..’

The inheritance he inherited from Old Man Heo is being used as an investment for business expansion, and he has not yet received his monthly salary as an instructor. Actually, it's not much since I'm a newbie..

All I have now is a large manor, a body, and two disciples who live in my house without paying anything..

“Ugh.”

“Why are you sighing like that??”

“There are many holes for money to escape, but there are no holes for money to come in..”

As I sighed out of worry about money, Myeong Il-oh, whose face was red from drinking, scratched his chin and said,.

“older brother. If you're in a hurry for money, how about getting a private tutor? It might be hard to find time…….”

“private tutoring?”

When I looked at him with an expression like he was hearing that word for the first time, Myung Il-oh was taken aback and wondered if he didn't even know that..

“Literally, it means providing martial arts instruction one-on-one and receiving tuition fees. Since he has the honor of being an instructor at Cheongryong Academy, there must be quite a few people who want to learn..”

“uh? Come to think of it, the entrance exam for Cheongryong Academy is only in one month. The entrance exam preparation class is probably right now.?”

Ak Yeon-ho, who was lying half-faced on the table, also raised his head and added a word..

“Oh my……!”

Why didn't I think of that earlier??

I asked Myung Il-oh more details about private tutoring..

“Have you tried tutoring? How do you usually do it??”

The answer came from Zhuge Xiaoying..

Her voice was slightly crooked from the alcohol..

“I usually teach about once or twice a week. Tuition fees are paid per session, or once a month. I don't really recommend it though…….”

“Is there any reason not to recommend it??”

Zhuge Xiaoying pouted his lips and said.

“What about private tutoring? Most people from high-ranking officials or rich families do it, right? Maybe that's why the kids…….”

“have no manners?”

“yes. I tried it a few times when I was attending Cheonmuhakgwan.…….”

I was lost in thought while listening to Zhuge Xiaoying's story..

Private tutoring itself is not that difficult..

The question is, can you make enough money from it?…….

I asked honestly.

“How much do you charge for tutoring??”

“Everything is different. In this industry, each instructor is treated differently, so the average is meaningless.…….”

“I’m not curious about the average either..”

I am curious about the level of treatment that is the best in the industry..

“If it's about Namgungsu?”

When I suddenly mentioned Nangongsu, Zhuge Xiaoying's eyes widened..

Namgungsu was also her senior instructor, but he was the only instructor at Cheongryong Academy..

Of course, the price of tutoring will be the highest..

“If it’s Namgung’s brother… … Wouldn't it be possible for each person to receive more than 300 nyang of silver per month??”

“……300 nyang?”

my eyes widened.

One hundred silver coins is enough for an average family to live on for a year..

300 nyang is three times that amount.

I make that much money just by watching martial arts twice a week for a month.?

I clicked my tongue, remembering Namgungsu’s cold face..

“her. He was a rich man who had a face without worldly desires..”

Anyway it went well.

I was worried about how to earn the money needed to buy the elixir needed to increase the achievement of Reverse Heaven, and the equipment and materials needed for the blacksmith..

A happy smile formed on my lips..

“If I get paid that much for tutoring, I can make as much as I want..”

“That brother. As Zhuge Xiaozhe just said, new instructors don't have much money.…….”

“What are you talking about??”

I looked at the three people with an expression of incomprehension..

“Of course, I plan to receive more than Namgungsu..”

“yes?”

“That makes sense…….”

“Who pays that much money to a new instructor?!”

Three people looking at me with angry faces.

I grinned at them.

“money? Just make it so you have no choice but to pay it..”

The next morning, my two students and I went around the city putting up leaflets everywhere..
