Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 404
Only Noblemtl
404. Invisible Threat (1)
Even Joho, who had ignited the fire, strangely shed tears.
It wasn’t fake emotion to show off to others, it was real tears.
Who on earth is the lord who can move people’s emotions so well?
It is a proverb in martial arts that you can know the depth of ten feet of water, but not the heart of a one-foot person.
However, it seemed as if the lord Hanbin could see through the hearts of people ten miles away.
Wasn’t it about seeing through the mind ten miles away and looking ahead ten steps ahead to plan the plan?
then…….
Joho clenched his fist.
Jo Ho put strength into his fists as much as he believed in his lord, Han Bin.
But that power alone was not enough to express her feelings for her lord.
Joho suddenly starts to cry again.
At that moment, Isoun tapped his shoulder.
“Young man, don’t be so emotional. Can’t you just repay the favor?”
Joho responded to Isoun’s consolation.
“Yes, that’s right.”
After finishing speaking, Joho wiped away his tears with his sleeve.
Now the roles have been reversed.
Even if the Red Blood Tigers had not come forward, the people of Sacheon had become blind followers of their lord, Han Bin.

After a while, Dang Gwang-hyeon asked a man named Lee So-woon who appeared to be the representative.
“As the head of the clan, I would like to express my gratitude.”
“No. We are the ones who have received the favor. There is probably no one in the history of the Central Plains who has shown such favor without any conditions.”
“You came here like this. And the poisonous aura you are worried about is not left in Sacheondangga.”
Dang Gwang-hyeon raised his voice so that everyone could hear his last words.
Because unnecessary fear interferes with work.
As expected.
Isoun asked back with a surprised face.
“yes?”
“There isn’t a single trace of poison left, so you can rest assured.”
“omg.”
Isoun stopped in his tracks with a surprised expression on his face.
Then he bowed deeply toward Dang Gwang-hyeon.
If there was no poison left, they wouldn’t have risked their lives.
In other words, now we only owe a debt to Sacheondangga and Jinryongsohyeop.
Isoun let out a sigh and continued speaking with an apologetic expression.
“All we did was stamp our hands, and yet you are doing us such a favor… … .”
“Handprint? What does that mean?”
“Jinryongsohyeop received a hand stamp on the document, saying it was for later confirmation. That’s natural. I don’t even know who is who… … .”
He began to tell the story of Jinryongsohyeop Hanbin again.
The representatives of the teenage generations opened their mouths in silence at Isoun’s words.
The most surprising of them all was Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liangmin quietly looked at his right hand.
There were faint traces of black oil there.
Due to the nature of black oil, it will take several days for it to completely disappear.
This was a trace of a handprint on the pledge that had not yet disappeared.
At this rate, the four princes of Habukpengga had already received a written promise from all of the Central Plains people.

It was two hours after the workers arrived that the carriage carrying Hanbin arrived.
As Hanbin and his party got out of the carriage, one of the guards came running.
After getting off the carriage, Dang Se-ryeong saw the guards running towards him and waved his hand.
It was a time when I was trying to say that excessive examples should be avoided.
The guard passed the Dangseolyeong.
Then he went in front of Hanbin and gave him a lottery ticket.
“True Dragon, Great Swordsman.”
“Yes? If it’s small-scale cooperation, it’s small-scale cooperation, and if it’s great cooperation, it’s great cooperation. Why are small-scale cooperation and great cooperation combined? Just call me Peng Gongzi for convenience.”
“Oh, I’m sorry. I was so excited that my words came out slurred.”
“What on earth is going on?”
“The workers have arrived, Prince Peng.”
“Oh, I see.”
When Hanbin nodded, the guard’s eyes widened.
“Did you know?”
“How could I have known that, when I don’t have clairvoyance?”
“Oh, if I can help you… … .”
“Please move the bag inside here to my place.”
“Of course. Don’t worry, Prince Peng.”
The guard warrior grabbed the sack that was inside the carriage.
Then he loaded it onto a small cart, struggling.
Dang Se-ryeong was shocked at the sight.
It was because of the security guard’s appearance that he didn’t even pay attention to himself.
The position of guard warrior was held by the most perceptive person in the family.
Since entertaining guests at the front was also a job, being observant was the best virtue for a security guard.
But the security guard greeted Hanbin, not himself.
It meant that Hanbin was judged to be the most influential person among the group.
Hanbin’s status changed when he came out and when he came in.
Dang Se-ryeong erased her expression and asked Han Bin.
“You’re not surprised.”
“Well, isn’t it natural that if you sow the seeds, you will reap the harvest?”
“… … .”
Dang Se-ryeong looked at Han Bin quietly.
I wanted to refute Hanbin’s way of speaking as if it were so obvious.
But I couldn’t refute it.
Because everything Hanbin said seemed so reasonable.
* * *
Hanbin and his group went straight to where the workers were gathered.
There, Lee So-woon and Dang Gwang-hyeon, the representatives of the workers, were putting their heads together.
“Your Majesty, no matter how much I think about it, we are short of stonemasons and carpenters. The level of removing debris and erecting the frame is enough for ordinary workers. However, the detailed work of cutting stones and carving wood cannot be left to them. If we had enough carpenters and stonemasons in this situation, we could finish the construction within a month.”
“Huh, where did you get that worker?”
“We have to find a way. If things continue like this, there are too many people, and I think it will be difficult to finish the construction even if the year is over.”
“Isn’t there a solution? Don’t you know that it’s safe here?”
“We found out after coming here. No matter how much I shout in other villages, they won’t believe me.”
“hmm.”
Dang Gwang-hyeon furrowed his brows.
What Isoun said was true.
There was a surplus of workers willing to do odd jobs.
This was because all the people who owed debts to Sacheondangga had gathered there.
But skilled carpenters and masons were a problem.
No matter how many workers there were, if there were not two types of workers to do the core work, then, as Isoun said, work might have to last through the winter.
That was when.
A cough was heard from behind.
“hmm.”
At that sound, Dang Gwang-hyeon quickly turned his head.
There, Hanbin was covering his mouth and laughing awkwardly.
Dang Gwang-hyeon asked in surprise.
“Prince Peng, when did you come?”
“I just got back. But after hearing your story, I think there’s a problem.”
“According to this carpenter here, there is a shortage of skilled workers.”
“hmm.”
“Where could there be a clever solution?”
Dang Gwang-hyeon asked weakly.
He suddenly remembered the proverb from the Gangho region that even fleas have faces.
When I asked him, he said that he was exactly like that.
The one who rescued these many workers was Sa Gongja of Habuk Pengga.
But you ask how it wouldn’t work even for skilled workers.
A situation that you can’t help but find funny even when you think about it.
Lee So-woon, who saw Han-bin, also took a step forward and bowed his head deeply.
“Aren’t you the Jinryongsohyup?”
“Oh, the carpenter is here too.”
“How did you know I was a carpenter?”
“I just overheard your conversation.”
Hanbin smiled with a kind face.
Of course, that wasn’t true. Hanbin told Simmiho to investigate the villagers.
Simmiho investigated them and found out what they did, and dealt with them appropriately.
Isoun nodded and answered.
“Oh, I see. I know it’s shameless, but isn’t there a way, Lord Jinryongsohyeop? Well, in this situation, there’s no way… … .”
Before he could finish speaking, Hanbin answered.
“there is.”
“yes?”
Isoun’s eyes widened.
Dang Gwang-hyeon, who was standing next to him, also asked urgently.
“Your Majesty, what method is there?”
“We have skilled carpenters and masons. But… … .”
“What’s the problem? Tell me quickly.”
“Their wages are a little high.”
“What do you mean, the wages are high?”
“It may not be worth a hundred to one, but it will be worth ten to one. So the wages have to be high.”
“Where can you find such skilled workers?”
“They are close by. May I set their wages?”
“Please do so.”
Dang Gwang-hyeon nodded.
But not everyone believed Hanbin’s words.
How can we find skilled carpenters and stonemasons to do ten jobs?
Actually, I was grateful for the current situation.
If they had not been able to rescue Isoun and other workers, Sacheondangga would have had to spend the winter in the ruined building.
But thanks to Hanbin saving the workers, I was able to breathe a sigh of relief.
Hanbin looked at the carpenter Lee So-woon.
“When I call the technician, this carpenter will look at it and give me an estimate of how much the wages should be.”
“Me?”
“Can’t you tell just by looking at this carpenter that he does the work of ten men?”
“How could I… … .”
“Haven’t you ever talked to the party leaders and workers here as a representative? That would be more than enough qualifications.”
After finishing speaking, Hanbin looked at Dang Gwanghyeon.
Dang Gwang-hyeon nodded at that sight.
“Trust me and let yourself be the judge.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Isoun nodded.
Hanbin looked around and snapped his fingers.
Exactly.
At that sound, gray-robed warriors came running from afar.
There was a red band around his shoulders.
They were members of the Red Tigers in full uniform.
The owner, So Dae-seop, confidently stood up straight and ran ahead of them.
They stopped five steps in front of Hanbin and took a deep breath.
“Master, have you called?”
At that moment, Dang Gwang-hyeon narrowed his eyes.
Because they had a different vibe from other warriors.
Along with the intensity that seemed like it would burn brightly, there was also a darkness that could not be seen anywhere.
It was clear that the yin and yang were in proper harmony.
This is exactly what Dang Gwang-Hyeon saw.
They were the ones who ate the specialty of Cheonsujang, the sea squirt with a strong aura, three times a day.
Anyone who looked at it could tell that it was overflowing with positive energy.
I lived there for a month like a mole underground, without even seeing the sun.
So, it is inevitable that it will be negative.
Hanbin continued speaking in a soft voice, not paying attention to Dang Gwanghyeon’s gaze.
“I have a mission to entrust to you, Lord So.”
“Yes, go ahead, my lord.”
“I have to go on a mission. Not really, but I’m going.”
“A dispatch mission? What do you mean?”
“We need carpenters and stonemasons for the restoration work of Sacheondangga.”
“Then should I get a carpenter and a mason? I’ll quickly… … .”
So Dae-seop couldn’t continue speaking.
It was because Hanbin stopped talking by showing his palm.
“Why, my lord?”
“There’s nothing to look for far away.”
“yes?”
“It’s behind the main building.”
Hanbin pointed to the Red Blood Tiger Squad members behind So Dae-seop.
So Dae-seop tilted his head as if he couldn’t understand.
“What do you mean?”
Dang Gwang-hyeon also did not know English.
Anyone who saw the people behind So Dae-seop was an unmanned force.
Are unmanned machines learning the skills of carpenters and stonemasons?
Of course it could be so.
But isn’t it the case that when it comes to breaking stones and carving trees, one more swing of the sword is the very work of a warrior?
