38 – The chess boom is coming…Coming…?
Immediately after the meeting with Lord Xinling, I summoned Nogucheon and instructed him to launch the corps as planned.
Nogucheon’s action was immediate. He believed that I would capture Shinneung-gun, and he had already started preparing before it even started.
When I told him not to act so hastily in the future, Noh Gu-cheon said that he did not act haphazardly.
“Under Shin Leung-gun, there is a foodie called Mo Gong. Pore is a gambler, but they were quite famous. After entering as a food guest, it was hard to see, but recently Pore has been spotted around here. That is proof that Shin Leung-gun is also interested in this side. ?”
Nogucheon may have had the intention of boasting that his intelligence was so great, but it sounded frustrating to me.
It wasn’t me who was caught, it was Nogucheon. It wasn’t that I was caught on my way to meet Nogucheon, it was that Nogucheon was being followed.
When I told him about what I had experienced with Shinneung-gun, the smile on Nogucheon’s face disappeared.
However, this is not something to be so reluctant to do. Conversely, it means that we can enjoy the abilities of the diners under Shinneung-gun in the future.
In any case, the launch of the guild itself was a tailwind.
Nogucheon almost closed the gambling board business and used it as the capital of the upper house.
Hire a skilled carpenter to carve the chess board, and call in a craftsman to carve the piece.
Various materials were used in the production of both the chess board and the chess piece.
Chessboards range from mass-produced types made of cheap wood to top-of-the-line types using the precious wall wood.
Janggi pieces are similarly stocked with a variety of common wood materials, as well as ivory and jade stones.
The beginning at the top was good.
Sinreung-gun promoted it, and when rumors spread that it was a game Shinreung-gun enjoyed, sales doubled.
Up until now, the handling of chess was ambiguous due to the implicit perception that the upper class aristocrats were baduk and the lower classes were handcuffs.
Isn’t it possible to enjoy only one side because of the difference in social status? Although the tacit perception is like that, it is not that the upper class does not approach, and the lower class does not play Go.
‘Even if chess is enjoyed by various classes, only a few do not pay attention to it, and it is not a problem for most people.’
In the first place, I have no intention of making only one customer a customer.
If the intention was simply to make money, they would have focused on targeting the upper class.
The only thing I save money for is to attract people. In order to expand the talent pool, it should not be buried in a specific class. If you only interact with the aristocrats for money, that’s a total turn of events.
Sinreunggun also raised his reputation by getting along with people from lowly backgrounds. Right now, am I not working with commoners like Jingga and Nogucheon?
Anyway, once the guild has settled down properly, I’ll have to do charity work or host a meeting to clean up my image.
Moving Shin Leung-gun’s favorability rating to the uppermost favorability rating and finally planting a positive perception of me as well.
That was my great succession through the guild.
‘Make money and get an image. One stone kills.’
Even Xinling-kun wouldn’t have been aware of this grand plan.
Using the top as an intermediate material, a straw is counted as the reputation of Shinneung-gun. It was a mosquito-like conspiracy that was heartless.
‘I’ve become a person from the Warring States Period, too.’
At this rate, it is not absurd to go beyond the current hardships and solidify your position as the crown prince before returning to Yan.
Money and human power were the most powerful means to seize hegemony in any era.
It is sunny. After escaping the stormy sea full of dark clouds, I felt like I had finally found a port where the brilliant sunlight shone, and I spent each day in joyful anticipation.
However, the reef suddenly appears in an unexpected place and stops the ship.
I suppressed my laughter at the words of Hankyung who hurriedly ran over and shouted.
“The enemy general is dead!”
Word of mouth about the new corps and organs that were just inflating was at that moment when they were swept away by a typhoon and disappeared without a trace.
§
“This is an opportunity! At this point, we must push back the Gunsin Army faction!”
An old gong resonated from Pyeongwon-gun’s mansion.
In front of Pyeongwon-gun, the diners expressed their opinions on the situation.
Among them, the one gaining the most strength was the argument that, as Gongsun Long had just shouted, we should use this as a justification to attack the Tiancheng Army faction.
The envoy of the state of Wei died, and you might think that he was too immersed in the power struggle, but there was no big problem with the relationship with the state of Wei.
This was due to the somewhat unusual identity of the enemy commander who was killed. The enemy general who came as an envoy from the Wei Dynasty could be said to be a public servant, not an official of the Wei Dynasty.
The enemy general persuaded King Wei to temporarily grant him the role of envoy, but he was not an official receiving a green salary in Wei.
Therefore, at the point of visiting the country of Zhao and achieving that purpose, he returned as a natural person, not as an envoy of the state of Wei.
If the enemy general had been a Wei official in the first place, King Jo would not have seduced him to give him a higher rank.
Originally, national borders are meaningless in inviting and hiring talented people, but there must be a moral problem with taking out talented people after an alliance has been agreed upon.
Therefore, his death would be very displeased in the Wei Dynasty, but the possibility of escalating to a diplomatic conflict was extremely low.
However, as King Jo’s affection for the enemy general was genuine, this incident will never be taken lightly. It would only end when he found the beast.
Therefore, Gongsun Long was arguing that he should completely destroy him by driving the evil beast into the Gunsin Army, and regaining the position of the upper rank of the Pingyuan Army.
“There is still no solid evidence for this killing of the enemy commander.”
On the contrary to Gongsun-ryong, there were also those who were cautious.
Chuyeon, the representative figure, refuted Gongsunryong’s claim.
“Hmph, there’s only direct evidence, but it’s not something even a kid on the street knows that Geonsin-gun is the most influential.”
“That’s why it’s even more strange. His Majesty has already shown his intention to make the enemy general his superior several times, but if he is killed, it is obvious that suspicion will be directed at the Gunsin Army. It’s impossible not to know.”
There was some truth in Chuyeon’s words.
Although he is fighting with Pyeongwon-gun for the position, the current superior is Geonsin-gun in name and reality.
If the enemy general accepts King Jo’s proposal, he will be in a position to suffer the greatest loss. The motive for killing the enemy general is stronger than anyone else.
Gunsin-gun himself may not think so, but the public will accept it that way.
So, as the Gunsin Army, it was rather more damaging to lay a hand on the enemy commander.
“There are evidence suggesting Gunsin-gun!”
“It might be a conspiracy.”
“Ha! A conspiracy? Yes, it could be a conspiracy. However, who knows how long the political strife will continue if this opportunity is blown. What about the time and resources to be wasted trying to cover the authenticity of this certificate!”
Gongsun Rong also had the idea that Prince Jianxin might be caught up in a conspiracy. However, Gongsun Long regarded it as a sacrifice for the greater good.
“Now is not the time to be caught up in trivial matters like this! Don’t you know that it is a golden time to put an end to political strife as quickly as possible, unite the will of the country, solidify the alliance with the state of Wei, and prepare for the state of Qin!”
Clearly, the man who assassinated the enemy general and set the Jianxin army into a trap must have done this with the same intention as Gongsun Rong himself.
“This is nonsense! Choosing the wrong way over the right way!”
“hahahaha, are you trying to discuss the principle of yin and yang again?”
“What?”
Chu-yeon jumped up at the words of Gongsun-ryong, who was sarcastic about the school of Yin and Yang, which Chu-yeon belongs to.
Then, Gongsun Long followed suit and stood up and began to walk as if giving a lecture to Pingyuan County and the diners.
“Look at all! Chuyeon wrapped around Yeon’s Young master Heidan and damaged our cause, and now she even protects Geonsin-gun! I will!”
“That’s right!”
Several diners who agreed with Gongsun Long responded positively.
“Jeongnyeong Chuyeon, are you a caterer from Pyeongwon County? To me, you still look like a Yan official.”
Even before Chu-yeon could protest, Gongsun-ryong spoke out.
“A white horse is not a horse.”
White Paralysis.
The logic was that a white horse is a separate existence distinct from a horse because the concept of white means color and the concept of horse shape are mixed.
“Chuyeon You look the same.”
