[The Three Kingdoms] Golden Sun Exhibition

32 – The truth of that winter (3)

Although Sun Yu came with me, I decided to send Sun Yu to Sun Wook and stay for a few days at my manor.

Although Kwak Bong-hyo, whom I met on the first day, drooled over the land that I had my eyes on, I became quite close with her after realizing that she was a person of the same type as me but a little different.

“Do you like land?”

“I can’t buy it because I don’t have it.”

Yesterday we became friends while drinking, but today she didn’t drink any alcohol.

He just sipped his tea because he wanted to talk to me.

“Huh? Don’t you know that all the land belongs to His Majesty the Emperor?”

“His Majesty the Emperor must have sent someone to confiscate this land by decree if I find it difficult to use it.”

“Right? hehehehe.”

Kwak Kana and I both had similar views on land.

The Han imperial family did not have the power to directly manage the land throughout the central plains, and in the end, the land was left to local nobles or wealthy people who owned large fields.

However, no matter how strong the nobles are, they are bound to tremble in fear in the face of an angry civil unrest without intelligence.

“How did you end up buying here?”

“As the Yellow Turban enemy gained full-scale power in the plains, it spread to all directions. Yeonju also suffered from the Yellow Turban enemy at the time. Meanwhile, the owner of this land offered the manor at a reasonable price in order to escape quickly. I paid a premium and quickly purchased it. .”

I bought land from them using the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

And the current land price has reached its highest point, increasing by nearly three percent of the amount I once paid for it.

“Look, this is a manor that once cost hundreds of gold to buy. But do you think you can buy it for just two chests? When I bought it, I paid about half a chest more for the amount you brought.”

“You’re paying much more than the average price right now? Even if it’s only one and a half pieces, I’m still paying you more.”

Guo Jia pounded the box and laughed.

“Did you know that the price of land in Yeonju has fallen to nearly 40 percent right now?”

“The land price in Yeongju has gone down a lot now, right? Because of Heuksanjeok?”

“Yes. Now is the time when others are scared and shaking.”

“It’s time to buy as much as possible at the lows.”

She has enough money.

But I have no money.

Buying cheap and selling expensive is said to be the basics of commerce, but even if prices hit rock bottom, it means nothing if you don’t have the money to buy it.

“Wow, that’s a shame. In times like this, we need to buy more land.”

“That’s right. hehehehe, that’s why I’m trying to buy more land. Where do you think there’s good land?”

But I have eyes for the ground.

“Since you are a person with a good eye for land, enough to buy this land, there must be a place you have chosen. Tell me. I will be the only one who knows.”

“You know that if something like this spreads, its value goes down the more it spreads, right?”

“Of course I know. Instead, I pay for buying your eyes with land. I’m handing over the work to you. Work.”

“Yeah, yeah. So I decided to be friends with you.”

I recommended the land to her on the condition that she be transferred to work on the land.

“Do you know that price protection must be maintained for the next five years? If land prices do not rise by at least this amount, you will be finished with me.”

“Don’t worry. If you leave it for five years, it will go up on its own.”

Of course, the Kwak family must confirm that they will buy the land, and after five years, the land price must make a profit equal to the current purchase price in order for me to take over my share of the land.

“Write a contract. If you are confident.”

“Of course I am confident. I never do anything to lose money.”

There was no reason to be greedy since it was a land I couldn’t live in right now anyway. After only five years, the Kwak family would be able to receive a share of the land they would live on, so it was definitely not a loss-making transaction.

“If I use all this to buy land, I could buy a city somewhere.”

“That’s right. Land prices in Yeonju have collapsed right now.”

Cao Cao’s downfall.

The appearance of the Black Bandits.

The deaths of Yubok and Posin, influential figures in charge of the Yeonju area.

“Everyone was scared and ran away.”

As a result, all residents of Yeongju trembled with fear, and even those who had been renowned for maintaining the area sold their land one by one and left for somewhere else.

Some go to Jingju, some go to Seoju.

It was said that everyone left to seek peace in a relatively distant place in the atmosphere of war, and the Kwak family was in the process of purchasing land from them.

“I don’t know what kind of person you are, but Lord Cao Cao doesn’t want the nobles who left Yeonju to return here and become territorial.”

“Jojo…?”

“Yes, Jojo. If Jojo, who is currently serving as Yeonjok, rules over this place for a long time, the noble families in this area will raise their heads high, right? Ahem, I have been with Jojo since I was young… Ahem, I will be with Jojo. In my childhood….”

“Oh, I know what it is.”

Living in the same town as a celebrity or having the celebrity’s parents live in the area also affects land prices.

“This is a work to weaken the power of the nobles. It is a preventive measure to prevent those who abandoned the performance and ran away when it was most difficult to return to the performance and show off.”

Kwak Ga talked about the reason why he bought the land.

“Everything I buy land is for a good cause. It’s never for my own self-interest or anything like that. Do you understand?”

“Well, then. It’s natural for someone who buys you drinks and land to say that.”

“Is that so? I thought we could communicate. But why did you live here? Because it’s Jojo’s parents’ hometown?”

“When I tried to buy it, it was the cheapest.”

The reason the Kwak family bought this land they were drooling over was because it fit their budget.

Among the many properties for sale, it was a perfect match for the money I had, and the owner of this place also offered the land at a rather low price, saying that performing would be dangerous.

“It was only later that I found out that it was Jojo’s parents’ hometown. Do you like feng shui? There is a mountain with its back to you and a river flowing below, and the direction of the house is not due to the south, but slightly to the southeast….”

“More than that, I’m curious about where you originally wanted to buy it?”

Hot.

“I heard you snooped around somewhere else before coming here. Is that right?”

“…Actually, the original goal was Chohyeon, a defeated country over there.”

“Defeated Chohyeon? Why are you there?”

“The land there was the best.”

It was impossible to purchase it because the noble families had already deeply rooted their roots, but the most valuable land was Chohyeon, a defeated country.

“That’s Jojo’s hometown.”

“Somehow. When I lived there before, I wondered why there were so many Chos here. It was part of a village.”

“It’s not just a part of it, it’s like I saw it. hehehehe.”

I sincerely regret it. If I could turn back time, I would go back in time and buy more land in Jojo’s hometown.

‘I should have been forced to buy more.’

Who knew that the eunuch’s daughter would lead the government army to defeat the Yellow Turban enemy, make a failed attempt to assassinate Dong Zhuo, become a staff member leading the anti-Dong Zhuo coalition, and now become Yeon Yeonmu!

“…How’s the land price there?”

“Why? My stomach hurts? Can’t I buy it before?”

“Isn’t it obvious? If I had known that Jojo would become so successful, I wouldn’t have bought it here.”

“hehehehe. Even though it fell a lot, there is no one selling it. Cho and Hahoo are holding on tightly to the land. Instead, I bought some of the nearby villages. hahahahaha!”

“What are you looking at?”

“Jojo.”

Unlike me, who bought the land because the terrain was good, the Kwak family bought the land after thoroughly looking at the ‘people’.

If I wanted the people living near that land to do well after I bought the land, the Kwak family thought of the people first and bought the land related to that person.

“Actually, I’m from Jojo-gun.”

okay.

Guo Jia was a person who worked in Cao Cao County.

“The reason I came today is because I thought it would be good for us to have a good relationship in the future.”

“If it is a recommendation from an officer….”

“Hey, you shouldn’t force a friend who doesn’t like a government position to be appointed. Then you won’t give me any good information.”

Kwak Ga got up from his seat.

“If you have land that seems to be going to be expensive in the future, be sure to tell me. I will buy it all. As long as you keep the profits, you get your share of the work.”

“One question. What do you believe and why do you trust me so much?”

“…I was sure after seeing it in person, but I know because I’ve heard a lot of stories about you.”

Kwak tapped my shoulder.

“Are we all going to subdue the Black Bandits tomorrow?”

“Black Bandit?”

“That’s right. Land prices aren’t falling because of the Black Bandits.”

Guo Jia continued speaking with a very serious expression.

“I protect the price of my land.”

Sigh.

The lamp went out. Sunuk closely reviewed Sunyu’s plan in his room before falling asleep and tried to fall asleep.

smart.

However, I was startled by a sound coming from outside and woke up. There was no sign of anyone outside the door, and Sunwook was nervous as he closed the bamboo pole where he had laid out his plan.

“It’s been a while, sister.”

“…ah!”

A sound was heard from the window.

“It’s because the window is so poorly maintained. What are you going to do if a thief happens to do it?”

“…A thief is a thief.”

The black-haired young man sat on the window sill. Then he grabbed my head and pulled it.

Sarah.

The young man’s hair was shining golden in the moonlight. With one leg inside the room, the young man smiled brightly at Sunwook and flicked the liquor bottle on his waist.

“I came to see your face.”

“why?”

“I want to see.”

“…If that’s the case, there’s nothing we can do about it.”

Sunuk grabbed the string of the pajamas he was about to take off again. Instead, he slowly approached the young man and placed his hand on the young man’s leg.

“I heard you were leaving, sister.”

“…huh.”

“Would you like a drink before you go?”

“a drink….”

Sunuk stretched out his hand towards the face of the young man sitting on the window sill.

“Are you just going to have a drink?”

“Why? Aren’t you going to subdue the Black Bandits tomorrow?”

“It’s even more so because we’re going to subdue the Black Bandits.”

Sunuk buried his face in the man’s chest.

“Thank you. For coming here.”

“Suddenly, what? It’s cold, so let’s close the window. I’m going to stay here, so I want it to be cold.”

“Then come this way.”

Sunuk pulled the young man away and locked the window.

“I’ll warm your body first.”

next day.

Yeon Yeon-mok, Jojo, leads the entire army to Heuksan Mountain to subdue the Heuksan bandits.
