Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 537



Only Noblemtl

537. Soft on the outside, strong on the inside (2)

Seol-hwa is warming up her body by spinning her arms around excitedly.

Before she knew it, Cheonghwa had rolled up her sleeves and stood next to Hanbin.

In a way, it was natural that So-gun followed.

The clerks stood in line, holding the contracts in their hands and beginning to ponder.

It was because Hanbin asked me to choose from the contracts in front of me.

The eyes of the secretary who was about to sign after Jang Moon-soo turned around frantically.

He thought this contract was first-come, first-served.

It was obvious to anyone that Jang Moon-soo, who had signed the first contract, had signed on good terms.

Then he had to pick the next best contract.

Because of this, the secretaries behind him vented their complaints.

“Hey, finish this quickly.”

“If you keep staring at the contract like that, you’ll end up killing me.”

“Oh, I also want to learn quickly… … .”

Hanbin nodded at their discontented voices.

At that moment, Seolhwa and Cheonghwa came carrying the table that was next to them.

“Just a moment, sirs!”

At the end of the story, the scribes stepped back for a moment.

Seolhwa put the table down and shook her hands.

Next, Cheonghwado placed the tables side by side.

The little boy also brought a table and placed it next to each other while grumbling.

As four large tables were placed side by side, Hanbin said.

“Okay, everyone, gather together now.”

Hanbin pointed to the table.

The clerks quickly gathered around the table and looked at the contract.

Hanbin had an expression on his face as if he was about to pick up the contract when his order was given.

The first person in line then spoke as if it was unfair.

“What, what do you mean? I ran like crazy because they told me to get in line earlier. So I was first in line… … .”

The secretary couldn’t continue speaking as if he felt wronged, and just moved his lips.

His name is Jo Il-soon.

He was a friend of Jang Moon-soo, a mid-level secretary.

The reason Jo Il-soon was the first in line was simple.

Because in his view, Jang Moon-soo was never the type of person to do something that would cause him harm.

If you follow Jang Moon-soo’s lead in whatever you do, you’ll get to the middle.

In Jo Il-soon’s opinion, Jang Moon-soo was a genius.

After seeing him fail the provincial exam time and time again, Jo Il-soon decided not to take the provincial exam either.

The interesting thing is that when they hired a secretary here in Habukpangga, they brought it in together.

He worked closely next to Jang Moon-soo and rose to the position of mid-level secretary.

Although he had dreams of becoming a manager, Jo Il-soon was satisfied with reality.

But the moment Jang Moon-soo moved, he couldn’t stay still.

It was his instinct to follow Jang Moon-soo whenever he moved.

But Jang Moon-soo asked Han Bin for teachings without any notice.

If it had ended here, Jo Il-soon wouldn’t have been this flustered.

The other party wanted a contract, not just a master-student relationship.

When I told him that I had signed a contract with Hong Chil-gae before, he just laughed.

But when Jang Moon-soo signed the contract, Jo Il-soon also became anxious and came running.

After Jang Moon-soo, it was important to choose the best condition.

But since Hanbin gathered all the secretaries together without any regard for the order, I couldn’t help but be flustered.

Hanbin smiled after seeing Jo Il-soon’s expression.

“The order doesn’t matter. If we all get together and discuss it, wouldn’t we be able to reach a conclusion faster?”

“But I was the first to arrive… … .”

“I’ll let you choose first. Don’t worry.”

“How can I choose the contract with the best conditions when we are all gathered together like this?”

Jo Il-soon tilted his head and pointed to the contract on the table.

Their appearance was enough to attract the attention of Jang Yu-jung and the Confucian scholars watching from afar.

Among them, Yang Seok-bong glanced at Choi Yu-ji.

“I’m so curious I can’t stand it.”

“I’m curious too.”

Choi Yu-ji also looked around as if she was about to leave the palace.

It was the same for all the students.

A priest contract?

This was an unprecedented contract.

All the students knew that Hanbin liked contracts.

They were people who had signed a contract with Hanbin at least once.

But I never imagined a priestly contract.

At first, they asked us to line up, but this time they gathered everyone together and spread out the contract.

Of course, there were bound to be complaints.

At that moment, Jang Yu-jung glared at them.

“Don’t act rashly.”

“I can’t stand being curious.”

Yang Seok-bong answered with a small bow.

Jang Yu-jung asked, brushing his beard.

“What are you so curious about? This is Habukpangga’s business. So it’s none of your business.”

“I won’t interfere. I’ll just watch. I think watching the process of quelling those complaints will be an opportunity to cultivate my interest as a manager.”

“Heh heh, this is… … .”

At that time, Choi Yu-ji also stepped forward.

“I’m curious too.”

“Are you curious about the same thing as Yang Yu-saeng?”

“No. What I’m curious about is the contents of that contract.”

“Heh heh.”

Jang Yu-jung smiled faintly.

It was a sincere smile. Jang Yu-joong was also curious about the contract that Han-bin had.

What exactly is written in a priest contract?

I just heard from Peng Kang-wi that something like this has happened before.

However, I was unable to find out the contents of the contract.

Jang Yu-jung glanced at Peng Kang-wi.

Peng Kang-wi, who felt the gaze, asked.

“Do you have anything to say to me?”

“Can we take a look for a moment? Please go.”

“Of course. My child is a little quirky. I hope you understand.”

“What do you mean, I think I’m special, haha.”

Jang Yu-jung smiled brightly and nodded to the students.

It was a sign of permission.

At that sight, the students quietly walked towards where Hanbin and Seogi were.

Jang Yu-jung also took a step forward, brushing his beard away.

Of course, the situation was similar for others.

Peng Kang-wi was also curious about that sight.

What Peng Kang-wi was curious about was how to deal with those secretaries.

In fact, until recently, Peng Kang-wi had been weighing Han Bin against Peng Hyeok-bin, the eldest son, while placing him in the Sogaju.

But after meeting Hanbin alone, Peng Kangwei changed his mind.

The reason is that Hanbin wasn’t interested in the position of head of the household.

After that, Peng Kang-wi chose Han Bin as the future head of the ruling party.

After Peng Kang-wi steps down, Peng Dae-wi, who is currently the head of the law enforcement party, will also want to let go.

At that time, the position of the head of the ruling party was bound to become vacant.

Hanbin was exactly what was needed at that time.

The problem was whether Hanbin could control the family as much as Peng Daewi.

Hanbin’s martial arts skills were acknowledged, but gaining the trust of his family members was a different matter.

The current head of the family, Peng Dae-wi, was leading the family with brute force rather than intelligence.

His fierce expression and the sword he carried on his shoulder were enough to garner him authority as the head of the law enforcement party.

But Hanbin was different.

To anyone who looked at him, he looked weak. In Peng Kang-wi’s view, Han-bin seemed to need to be recognized by his family members for his intelligence rather than his strength.

Peng Kang-wi was secretly hoping that Han Bin would take control of the family members.

He saw this incident as a prelude to Hanbin gaining the trust of his family.

Is everything a coincidence?

It couldn’t have been a coincidence.

Peng Kang-wi was amazed at what was happening now.

Although he didn’t know how Hanbin knew his own mind and created that situation, it was clear that Hanbin was scratching an itch in him.

The area around Hanbin began to become more noisy than before.

Because the onlookers flocked in.

Hanbin continued speaking, pointing to the secretaries without paying attention to their gaze.

“If we discuss and review the conditions together, wouldn’t the order be decided quickly?”

“But the order is mixed up like this, so how can I tell them apart?”

He pointed around as if he felt wronged.

As he said, the students who had lined up to sign the contract were all mixed up in a mess.

Hanbin smiled at that sight.

“I remember, so don’t worry.”

“No matter what… … .”

“What if someone who wants to learn doesn’t believe what the teacher says?”

Hanbin cut him off.

Then he narrowed his eyes. When Hanbin’s eyes lit up, he flinched and stepped back.

Because I saw determination in Hanbin’s eyes.

The other secretaries also stopped talking.

Although he did not show off his momentum, an atmosphere of equal magnitude swept over the secretaries.

Hanbin smiled and nodded at their appearance.

Seolhwa, who received the signal, shouted.

“I’m going to count to ten from now on! If you don’t sign by then, I’ll be the only one who can receive it from Secretary Jang. One… … .”

The scribes were startled by Seol-hwa’s clear voice and picked up their brushes.

Swish swish.

Numerous brushes moved across the paper at the same time.

It was instinct.

They signed the contract without even checking it.

Seolhwa carefully collected one copy of the contract they had signed.

Now, only a single copy of the contract remained in front of them.

At that time, Jo Il-soon, who was first in line, tilted his head.

He looked at Hanbin quietly with an expression on his face as if he had just remembered something.

Hanbin felt the gaze and smiled.

“I have signed the contract, so I can now speak comfortably as your teacher. Why do you think so?”

The tone of speech has changed.

But the speech was more natural than ever.

Jo Il-soon said, bowing his head slightly.

“Didn’t you say you gave me the right to choose first?”

“I remember the order clearly.”

“What do you mean?”

“You’re first, and then… … .”

Hanbin recited the names of the clerks who had been waiting in line earlier in order.

At that moment, Jo Il-soon’s eyes widened.

Of course, the eyes of Jang Yu-jung and the students who were watching them also grew wide.

It was amazing how he remembered everyone’s order in such a short time.

That was when.

A clerk asked.

“How do you prove that order?”

“Let me see your sleeves.”

Hanbin pointed to the secretary’s sleeve.

Jo Il-soon also checked his own sleeve.

On his sleeve was clearly written the character “一”.

“How did it happen without me knowing… … .”

The scribes looked at each other, their eyes wide open.

Without even knowing it, he wrote the order with a brush on his sleeve!

It was a situation where I didn’t even know who wrote it.

In fact, it wasn’t that Hanbin was small.

Seolhwa straightened her shoulders and looked at Hanbin.

Anyone who saw it could tell that he was trying to show off.

Hanbin nodded happily.

When the confusion cleared up, Hanbin continued speaking.

“The order wasn’t important from the beginning.”

“What do you mean?”

“Just refuse to listen.”

Hanbin spoke briefly, emphasizing each letter.

Jo Il-soon asked with his eyes wide open.

“yes?”

“How can you not know that all contracts have one root? This contract is the first lesson.”

“Th, what is that… … .”

“From now on, read the contract you signed carefully.”

At Hanbin’s words, Jo Il-soon signed and began to look over his remaining contract.

The rest of the secretaries also began to look over the contents of the contract.

Everyone who looked at the contract shrugged their shoulders.

In my life, I have never seen such an unfair contract.

He only had the duties of a disciple and no authority at all.

Why is there a no-escape clause in the contract?
