Chapter 852: I just came out?

It just came out? (2)

"...Did you say Bongmun?"

"Yes."

hwangmun-yak, the owner of the Eunha Merchant Guild, looked at Hwang Jung-ui with an expression of complete bewilderment.

"So... ...Mount Hua said it was bongmun?"

He asked again as if he didn't believe it, but then he burst out laughing.

Hwang Jung-wei also nodded, fully understanding his father's reaction.

"This looks like him."

"Are you telling me to believe it now?"

"… …I couldn't believe it either, so I actually checked. The mountain gates of Mount Hua that would never close were tightly locked.

hwangmun-yak's wrinkled eyes widened.

"So... ...Are you really saying that Mount Hua was closed? This is Mount Hua? "This is the Mount Hua I know?"

The voice was full of disbelief. Hwang Jong-ui nodded again with a serious face.

"It seems certain. "The rumors have already spread not only in Shaanxi, but also throughout the world."

"I see. Then you will be sure. I'm sure... ..."

"... ...."

"I need to make sure..."

Hwangmun-yak looked in front of him with an indescribable feeling.

Chuck chuck chuck chuck.

"then… … ."

chwab chwab chwab chwab chwab chwab chwab.

"... ...What on earth is going on?"

He looked with trembling eyes at someone emptying the heavily set table like a storm.

If the news is true... ...then this man shouldn't be here... ...?

'Is he a ghost?'

chwab chwab chwab chwab chwab chwab chwab.!

Cheung Myung bravely tore off the leg of a large duck and emptied the wine next to him in one go, then put the bottle down with a strong thump.

"Great. I'll live a little longer now."

"... ...."

"I heard you should go out and eat. Tsk. We need to change Mount Hua's kitchens or something. I don't like that because it's tasteless."

hwangmun-yak looked at cheong myeong blankly and then opened his mouth.

"This... ...dojang."

When he called out softly, cheong myeong quietly turned his head as if asking why he was calling out.

"Yes?"

"Now... what I heard is... ...is that true?"

"Eh? Bongmun?"

"Yes. Well, it is said that Mount Hua has been sealed... ...."

"That's right. This and that were annoying, so I gave up."

There was no need to explain the questions hwangmun-yak asked at that moment.

"Why?"

No... ...Sometimes, some people need things explained.

"Bo, you went to Bongmun, but how did dojang end up here...?"

"Oh, me?"

"Yes."

"I just came out?"

"... ...."

hwangmun-yak smiled.

'Let's not just try to understand.'

It's not something that happens once or twice, and now you just have to accept it... Why do you keep repeating the same thing every time you experience it? As a person, you should know how to adapt.

‏However, it seemed that Hwang Jong-Ui had not abandoned his foolishness yet..

"Bo, if what you said is true, you shouldn't go out?"

"Me?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

"... ...."

Why are you asking me that question, you should be answering it!

After taking his drink again, Cheungmyung wiped the corner of his mouth and spoke.

"No. Well, it's not like we committed a crime, I'm telling you not to go around because it's annoying, but there's nothing like you can't get out of it, right?"

"...Ah, no. Still, it's called Bongmun."

"Oh, it's all like that. How many of the people who have been in bongmun are guarding it to the death. I'm sure those Southern Edge Sect bastards and the Wudang bastards who went through the bongmun this time will come out in the middle of the night in their fuzzy pajamas and get drunk in the corner, I'll bet."

"... ...."

"So just skip the little things."

"… … Yes."

True, it's easier to move on.

"Well, since this is the case, I would like to ask you to take care of the business in Hwa-eum (Hwa Village), make sure the trade route to the North Sea is taken care of, and if there is a problem transporting Eunha, I have agreed to take care of it with the Tang family." So if you have any problems, you can ask for help."

"Yes."

"And when you put the food ingredients in Mount Hua, fill it with meat… …. Well… …. Which… …."

Cheong myeong paused, lengthened his sentence, and looked at him with a look that asked, "Do I really need to say this in words?" Hwang Jong-ui opened his mouth with a sad face.

"... ...I will continue to store alcohol where I usually hide it."

"Ha Ha Ha Ha.. I don't think that's the case, but this is not a body that can come out after bongmun, so, my alcohol will rot, rot!"

".....So, do you want me to cut it down?"

"Yes?"

"Oh, no, you said it was rotting..."

"Yes?"

"... ...I'll get you more."

"Great. Well, if you really want to do it."

Cheung Myung shrugged his shoulders and resumed eating.

"Oh, and there will be packages coming from the Tang Family, and there will be packages coming from the North Sea to the Mount Hua. When they arrive, bring them to the Mount Hua, whether it's bongmun or not. We'll let the Eunha Merchant in."

"I will."

After finishing this and that, he sighed lightly.

"I'd like to say I'll come by often, but this is actually the last time, and I won't be able to stop by again until the bongmun are lifted."

"Ugh."

"I'm a little worried about what you've done, but I'm sure you'll all be fine."

hwangmun-yak smiled.

"Don't worry, dojang."

"but… … ."

Cheongmyeong looked at hwangmun-yak in wonder.

"You didn't ask me why we decided on bongmun? People are usually curious about that."

Hwang Mun-yak shook his head calmly.

"People like us do not need to know. How can those of us who seek profit know the inner intentions of those who follow the Tao?"

"... ...."

"I think dojang has a great goal."

"Not really."

As cheong myung scratched the back of his head, hwangmun-yak laughed softly.

" I will take care of it so that there are no problems, and I will coordinate well with the Huaying Gate in the west to ensure that there are no difficulties in increasing the number of people in the sect."

"Ah, I see, I'll have to ask you for that as well."

"Such trivial matters are none of your concern, sir. All you have to do is carry out your intentions, and it's people like us who follow through."

"And make money on the side?"

"Yeah, yeah, you know what I mean, hahaha."

Hwangmun-yak laughed in amusement.

"dojang."

"Yes?"

"Since your appearance, not only Xi'an and Hwaeun, but the entire Shaanxi region has been invigorated. In particular, the pride of Hwaeum people cannot be expressed in words."

"No way, what did i do?"

"Thanks to dojang, the Eunha Merchant Guild has also gained wings."

hwangmun-yak bowed his head respectfully towards cheong myeong.

"Thank you."

"Why are you doing this all of a sudden?!"

Cheongmyung, who was startled, quickly woke him up

hwangmun-yak, smiled and nodded.

"I really wanted to say thank you at least once. I don't think I've ever truly expressed my gratitude to you."

"We have no gratitude between us."

hwangmun-yak smiled and looked at cheong myeong.

If you think about it, it wasn't that long ago. Only a few years have passed since they knew each other. But those few years saved his life, changed his life, and even changed the future of the Eunha Merchant Guild.

All thanks to the appearance of this person.

cheong myeong, who received hwangmun-yak's warm gaze, stood up with a strange look on his face.

"Anyway, I'm asking you to take care of things, especially on the west coast, Because while I'm gone, the people from Southern Edge Sect might come out and do evil things while I'm gone."

"Of course. Now the strength of the Eunha Merchant Guild is not weak. At the very least, we will make sure that the Mount Hua Sects in Xi'an and the sects that line up with Mount Hua will not be harmed."

"Aye. That's enough, then."

Cheongmyeong grabbed a bottle of alcohol and walked towards the door. However, even though he grabbed the door handle, he did not open it immediately and hesitated slightly.

"This…."

"Yes, dojang."

"Don't worry, Mount Hua and Eunha Merchant Guild are close friends."

Hwang Jung-wei tilted his head at this unexpected remark. However, hwangmun-yak smiled as if he understood the meaning of cheong myeong's words.

"If you say so, I have nothing else to ask."

"Yes then."

Cheung Myung looked at hwangmun-yak, smiled broadly, opened the door, and walked out.

Thud.

After the door closed, Hwang Jong-ui frowned in confusion.

"Why did he come?"

"Why… … ."

"I tried to say something, but there was no point, right? It's something worth asking, but it's not something you wouldn't do just because you didn't want to. What should I say when he comes out of the bongmun personally...."

"Jong-ui ah, people words..."

"Yes, father."

As hwangmun-yak's voice became extremely serious and firm, so Hwang Jung-ui adjusted his posture.

"The real meaning inside is more important than the outer shell. If you are a businessman, you should be able to read the real meaning hidden in the words."

"... ...."

"Dojang just came by to say his greeting ."

"Greetings? Do you mean to say goodbye?"

"no."

hwangmun-yak shook his head. A quiet voice rang out.

"He came to say goodbye to someone he would never see again."

"...Ah, Father?"

Hwangmun-yak said with a smile.

"Isn't he really a good-hearted person? After paying respects, it seems to have bothered him. Now, this old man is not that great of a person to be so concerned about..."

hwangmun-yak knows.

He probably won't survive until Mount Hwa leaves

Bongmun. Because he has already enjoyed heavenly life.

Cheung Myung seemed to have guessed this fact as well.

"I have no regrets anymore. If you think about it, I should have already died, but thanks to the dojang, I have seen and experienced so much overflowing gratitude."

" father… … ."

"If I have any worries, it's just you and the Eunha Merchant Guild. Dojang guessed it as well. If I had closed my eyes while the mount hua was in bongmun, I wouldn't have been able to rest peacefully because of my worry about the Eunha Merchant Guild and you, He deliberately came to me and told me not to worry".

Hwangmun-yak, who was speaking slowly, closed his eyes.

'There is no such thing as pride.'

he knows

Cheongmyeong, who has a very harsh demeanor, actually has a very warm heart.

"I'm worried about dojang."

"...Are you talking about him?"

"There will be turbulence, The world really changing."

"... ...."

"I wonder how much this cruel person will be hurt in this cruel world."

hwangmun-yak sighed softly.

"If a man does not know grace, he is no better than a beast، Jong-ui ah."

"Yes."

"Help this person and Mount Hua, not only as the merchant captain of the Eunha Merchant Guild, but also as a person."

"…I will keep it in mind."

"Okay. That's it."

hwangmun-yak smiled.

It was a shame that he couldn't see Mount Hua and the Eunha Merchant Guild that controlled the world in person. However, the reason he doesn't have much regret is because he can guess it even if you don't see it with your own eyes.

"Great Bong waits a thousand years to make one journey. I look forward to seeing how great Mount Hwa will be when it leaves Bongmun."

"Me too, Dad."

"Ha ha ha. But before that, I have to do the task that Dujang gave me properly. We're going to get busy, let's hurry."

"Yes, father."

After leaving the room, hwangmun-yak looked at the gate from which Cheungmyung came out and Mount Hwa rising above it.

"Whenever... flowers bloom, they fade."

However, he can look at the fallen flowers without sadness, because he knows that the day will come when they will bloom again.

"Please be careful, Doujang."

A warm smile appeared on hwangmun-yak's lips, which still bore traces of the passage of time.
