Absolute Regression

Episode 26 The more you take, the deeper your relationship becomes.

Geum Asu took the lead through the secret passageway underground.

The road was complicated like a maze. I could feel that there were deadly traps and machinery hidden throughout the walls, ceilings and floors. Geum Sa-yeon, who was following along, felt nervous.

After traversing a complicated path that only those who know the path can take, the place they arrived at was a secret warehouse where the golden treasure was stored.

“You saved our lives, so you should give us all your money, but that is unrealistic.”

“I don’t want to go that far.”

“It would be nice to set a certain amount in return, but how about this instead? From here, Eunkong takes as much as he can take at one time. You must not use a cart instead, nor must you accept help from others.”

“Are you even acknowledging that I brought it out?”

“exactly.”

“Can I use my inner energy?”

“Of course.”

“Then you’ll be carrying quite a lot, right?”

“If it weren’t for Eunkong, we would all have died, so we should compensate for this.”

“Thank you.”

“I will give you a test from now on. “Are you okay?”

“That’s enough.”

I slowly walked into the treasure trove.

When Geommugeuk entered the treasure trove, Geum Sa-yeon asked Geum Asu.

“Are you sure you don’t mind?”

“What do you mean?”

“If you are a martial arts expert, you may take more than you think. “Isn’t it a waste?”

Geum Sa-yeon smiled and said it as if it were a joke, but deep down she was worried that her father might get sick later. My father was a man who devoted his life to accumulating wealth. However, a large part of that life could have disappeared in someone else’s hands.

But my father’s reaction was unexpected.

“Is there something more precious in there than what we protected today?”

Geum Asu patted his daughter’s shoulder.

“It’s enough for you and Yang to live together. “If I lost you guys too…”

Geum Asu couldn’t bear to continue speaking. All his life he had heard that even if he was pricked with a needle, not a single drop of blood would come out, but at least he was a person who shed both blood and tears when it came to his children. It’s just that I didn’t have a chance to express it.

Rather, there was something Geum Asu desperately realized during this opportunity.

I regretted so much that I had neglected my relatives in order to accumulate wealth, even though they were my relatives for whom I would have given all my wealth.

And another reason why it is not worth giving away all your possessions.

There are many types of death. There is nothing wrong with dying while striving for a certain purpose. In this case, it was a betrayal by a trusted vassal. He probably wouldn’t have been able to close his eyes even after death.

“I’m not an ordinary person from Sohyeop.”

“yes. “Even though he was young, his skills were not average.”

“What I saw was not just skill.”

“Then what else did you see?”

“I’ve been thinking about how to express that for a while, but I couldn’t come up with it. “That small cooperative has a momentum that cannot be expressed in words.”

He had met many people throughout his life. Even at such a young age, it was my first time seeing someone with such a relaxed and unique atmosphere.

“You can make money again, but a relationship with someone like that will only come once in your life.”

Moreover, the opponent was young. Geum Asu hoped that his relationship with that young man would continue in the next era of Geumjang led by his daughter and grandson.

“So it doesn’t matter if you take it all. “The more you take, the deeper your relationship with us will become.”

I can assure you.

I would never be able to enter a treasure trove like this again in my life.

There was a mountain of gold jewelry piled up on one side, and if you looked at it, it was dazzling. Buddha statues, drone statues, tableware, decorations, tigers, toads, turtles, pigs, and all kinds of animals. Everything made of gold was piled up. At first, it must have been displayed well, but later the number grew so much that it seemed like they were just piled up like a mountain.

In the cabinet next to it, rare jewels were displayed. From jewelry such as rings, necklaces and bracelets to women’s playthings made of jade.

On the opposite side of the table, ceramics were on display, and behind it was a painting by a famous painter. It was literally full of all kinds of rare things.

Next to it again, things that excited me were displayed.

It was a night wine that illuminated dark places and a poisonous wine that prevented poisoning when held in the mouth. In particular, the Pidokju was the best product and was very small in size.

There are five of each. Since these are things that cannot be easily obtained even if you have money, they can be said to be more valuable than any other jewels here.

With a happy heart, I took some Yamyeongju and Pidokju first. I took them all and put them in my arms.

A tremendous amount of value was taken into the arms, but it was just the beginning.

The next thing I took was a ring on my finger that could be sold expensively, and I layered it with a bracelet and a necklace. It was so full that it was heavy.

I looked for something to hold the gold items in. It would be nice to have a large leather bag, but unfortunately, I didn’t have anything to put it in.

Should I take off my clothes and put them in?

While I was thinking about this, I found a piece of fabric standing in a corner. Upon inspection, I found that it was Cheonjamsa fabric brought in from Sae-oe.

He tore it as large as possible with a sword, made it into a large cloth, and then swept the gold objects into it.

Since it can be moved using internal energy, I tried to change the arrangement and pack as much as possible. Paintings and pottery were left behind. There was a risk of it being crumpled or broken. I didn’t even know the exact value.

I didn’t think about the circumstances of Golden Pearl. At least I wasn’t someone you had to worry about when it came to wealth.

In the same way, he filled the bag and packed it with treasures.

Geum Asu and Geum Sayeon’s mouths opened wide as they saw me coming out of the secret safe.

I was carrying a bundle much larger than my body. It was so big that I couldn’t even imagine how much was inside.

The warehouse door was so big that I could just get out, otherwise I would have had to break the wall to get out.

“I’ll just take this small amount.”

thud.

When I put down the bundle, the floor vibrated with a thud.

Geum Asu laughed out loud when he saw the rings on each of my fingers and the necklaces and bracelets wrapped around my neck and arms.

“Hahahahaha!”

“Shouldn’t you cry?”

“It’s true that I’m sad that my wealth is wasting away, but I’m glad that at least Prince Eun is not a hypocrite. The hypocrites I know probably only brought out a few useless and trivial things to save face. But how much will it hurt your stomach? I just hate hypocrites like that. Greed is the most precious and important emotion that dominates humans.”

He was a fan of greed. Because of that greed, he may have been able to rise to the position of First Minister of Fujian.

“It was a really wise decision to tear up the Cheonjamsa and make a wrapping cloth.”

“thank you.”

“It’s a pity to break up. “Please go and have a drink.”

“I’m not the type of person to drink with treasure next to me. See you next time.”

“If I need any help, can I come back to Eunkong?”

“of course. “Be sure to save a lot by then.”

At those words, Geum Asu chuckled. I was able to feel once again that the more honest he was about his wealth, the more his likeability increased.

“Where should I go to meet Eungong?”

“If you leave a message in Jangju’s name at the West Lake Guest House in various parts of the central plains, I will come and visit you.”

Seoho Gaekjan was a secret contact center operated by the university. In this way, I received necessary communication and played the role of sending messages to important people at our school.

“As expected, Eungong is an unusual person.”

Geum Asu will know. Only extraordinary people run liaison offices like this.

“Please take care until we see you again.”

“I wish you good luck.”

After forming such a deep relationship with Golden Jangju, I left there. My relationship with Golden Jangju was never a loss for me, so I was able to leave there in good spirits.

* * *

I found a carriage in the village, loaded it up with treasures, and headed to the bridge.

On the way back, they shared and sold gold and treasure. Since it was a quantity that could not be digested in one place, whenever I stopped by the city, I stopped at several places to sell the jewelry.

Having wandered around the midfield all my life, I knew very well what was where and where to sell it. Except for the Yamyeongju and Pidokju, all gold items and jewels were sold.

So, I left the money I bought to the most trustworthy companies, Jungwon Battlefield and Daeryeonjeonjang Pungwonjang. The money I took like that amounted to a whopping 3.8 million nyang. It was a lot more money than I expected.

‘Thank you, Golden Pearl. I don’t know about you, but this money will become the cornerstone of an organization that will become a legend in the future.’

He left 3.5 million nyang on the battlefield and returned with only 300,000 nyang in vouchers.

As soon as I returned to school, I went to Cheonmajeon and met my father. As always, my father was protecting Cheonmajeon like a mountain.

As I walked the red carpet of the Road of Blood, this question suddenly occurred to me.

My father will be here several times a day, listening to Sima Ming’s reports and making important decisions. Some people live and others die because of that decision.

Will my father be satisfied with this life?

Could it be that my father, like me and Ian, was pushed to the position of Heavenly Demon? What you truly want is hidden deep in your heart.

“I heard you were expelled from school.”

“I went there to make money.”

“Why money?”

“You can’t live off your father’s money forever, right? “I think we’ll need it a lot in the future.”

“What are you going to use it for?”

“I want to own a private organization.”

“A private organization?”

My father’s expression became slightly harsh.

“Don’t the Mazons each have their own minions? “To deal with them, I also need an organization.”

“It can’t happen. If you have it, your brother will want it too. The mazon’s blood relatives and disciples will also try to get it. “Not possible!”

I didn’t think I could get permission all at once. It wasn’t something urgent right now.

If one or two good subordinates gather together and the water overflows, then they will not be able to prevent the dam from collapsing.

I didn’t press and my father didn’t mention it anymore.

“Did you make a lot of money?”

“Yes, I earned a lot.”

I took out a thick envelope from my pocket and held it out in front of me.

“This is my father’s.”

When my father held out his hand, the envelope in my hand flew through the air and went to my father. It was a piece of empty space that contained the secrets of extremely soft yet rapid rise.

My father checked the inside of the envelope. What he was carrying was a voucher worth 100,000 nyang.

“What kind of money is this?”

“This is my father’s allowance.”

“what?”

My father was surprised. The reason I was so surprised was not because it was an amount too large to receive as pocket money, but because of the word pocket money.

“I have a lot of money.”

“I know. He is the richest person in the world. “The money I just gave you is my first allowance as a thank you for giving birth to me and raising me.”

My father looked down at the slip for a moment and suddenly asked.

“Are you flattering me?”

“From now on, I will flatter you so much that it will be embarrassing, but not as much as this allowance. I wanted to give it to you at least once. Then rest. father.”

I bowed politely and walked down the bloody road.

My father’s gaze burned the back of my head until I left there. You must be very confused right now.

He would have been the first Heavenly Demon in history to receive an allowance from his son.
