Chapter 312 – Our Cuengi Is a Genius

Grape farm on the 4th floor of the tower.

‘O Rhea, Goddess of Abundance… I am working hard to make money today as well.’

The Farming King knelt down and prayed to Rhea, Goddess of Abundance, today as well.

Just as the Farming King prayed, sales at the grape farm had increased significantly lately.

This was because the number of hunters coming to buy fragrant grapes overflowing with life had increased.

As giant leeches appeared in regions other than Hawaii, hunters from other countries began to look for grapes.

Thanks to that, the price of grapes was also rising day by day in accordance with the law of supply and demand.

At that moment,

-My child. You are very wonderful.

Rhea answered the Farming King’s prayer.

-However… it is still far from enough to help Park Se-jun. Devise a way to make more money.

‘Yes. O Rhea, Goddess of Abundance…’

The Farming King fell into contemplation again at the oracle of Rhea, Goddess of Abundance.

Clatter. Clatter.

He went to the warehouse where the harvested grapes were stored and reached out toward the grapes.

Then,

Hum.

A green light wrapped around the grapes.

A moment later.

When the light disappeared, hundreds of bottles containing a red liquid and one bottle containing a green liquid were created.

They were the ‘Holy Water Creation’ and ‘Holy Oil Creation’ skills that any priest learned.

Wine and grape seed oil were created by the Farming King’s skills like that.

When the Farming King sold wine and grape seed oil along with grapes, hunters only purchased wine instead of grapes.

It was natural.

[Fragrant Wine Overflowing with Life]

This is wine made from the highest-grade grapes of Tower Farmer Park Se-jun.

The taste has become richer.

The scent has become richer, spreading twice as far as when it was a fragrant grape overflowing with life.

Monsters that like the smell of blood will not be able to come to their senses due to the fragrant smell of wine.

Maker: ???

Expiration Date: 5 years

Grade: A+

This was because the bottled wine was easier to carry than grapes and its effect had doubled.

On the other hand, not a single bottle of grape seed oil was sold, and it began to pile up continuously in the warehouse.

***

Thump. Thump.

While Se-jun was making Garaetteok dough,

Cuhahaha. Cueng?

[Hehehe. Dad, are you making Garaetteok?]

Cuengi, who woke up from sleep, came into the kitchen to find Se-jun and asked.

“Yeah. Because Ajax said he wanted to eat it.”

Cuhahaha. Cueng!

[Hehehe. I’m excited!]

Cuengi thought about promoting (?) honey potatoes to Ajax next time.

Cuengi smiled and picked up the black noodle press hanging on the wall.

This was in order to squeeze out Garaetteok once Se-jun finished kneading.

Since the size of the holes in the noodle press could be adjusted, squeezing out Garaetteok was also possible.

A moment later.

“Cuengi, let’s squeeze out Garaetteok now.”

Cueng!

[Understood!]

When Se-jun put the finished dough into the noodle press,

Cueng!

Press.

Cuengi applied force and squeezed out Garaetteok.

Like that, five rows of 10-meter-long Garaetteok were squeezed out in an instant.

“Everyone, let’s eat!”

As Se-jun shouted,

“Yes! Hyung!”

Keerorong.

Ajax moved his wings and came out through the window while holding the still-sleeping Fenrir in his arms, and

[Master, let’s go!]

“Yes!”

Veronica ran over from the field with Flamie on her shoulder.

Veronica had been receiving farming education from Flamie since dawn.

Thud.

Once all the members gathered, Se-jun placed a huge plate piled with bite-sized Garaetteok in the center, and

Chuck. Chuck.

“This is just regular honey, and this is kudzu honey. Taste them and dip the Garaetteok in whichever honey you like. Let’s eat.”

he said, placing two small sauce bowls containing transparent honey and slightly brownish honey in front of each of them.

Cueng!

[I will eat well!]

“Hyung-nim! I will eat well!”

“Thank you for the meal.”

At Se-jun’s words, Cuengi, Ajax, and Veronica picked up Garaetteok.

And,

Stare.

Ajax and Veronica stared at Cuengi.

This was to see which honey the food connoisseur Cuengi would choose.

At that moment,

Dip.

Cuengi dipped the Garaetteok into the kudzu honey, and

‘I have to eat it with that one!’

‘It is that one!’

Dip. Dip.

the two also followed Cuengi and dipped their Garaetteok into the kudzu honey.

‘Why are they even copying that?’

Se-jun smiled as he looked at the two of them.

Grind, grind.

He ground coffee beans while watching the three eat Garaetteok. This was in order to drink coffee with the Garaetteok.

This was because eating something bitter along with something sweet could maximize each other’s flavors.

After the peaceful breakfast ended like that,

“Since Cuengi helped Dad today, I will give you pocket money. Here.”

Se-jun said, giving ten 1-Tower Coin coins to Cuengi, who had helped him make Garaetteok.

Having completely failed after entrusting Cuengi’s money-spending education to Theo last time, Se-jun decided to teach him himself.

Cueng!

[Dad, thank you!]

As soon as Cuengi received the 10 Tower Coins from Se-jun, he put them into his pocket money pouch. Commendable. Truly commendable.

“Then how much do you have now, Cuengi?”

Cueng…

[Cuengi now…]

Clink.

At Se-jun’s question, Cuengi emptied his pocket money pouch and began to count the coins. One. Two…

And,

Cueng!

[Five!]

Stamp.

Every time he reached five, he left a paw print on the ground with his front paw.

When Cuengi made 22 paw prints on the ground like that,

Cueng!

[Cuengi has this much money!]

Cuengi said, showing Se-jun the paw prints he had made.

An innovative calculation method he had never seen before in his life.

“Hmm…”

Se-jun pondered where to start teaching Cuengi, and then,

“Cuengi, let’s learn how to count numbers first.”

he taught Cuengi how to count numbers, addition, and subtraction.

An hour later.

“Cuengi, how much is in your pocket money pouch?”

Cueng!

[Cuengi has 110 Tower Coins!]

At Se-jun’s question, Cuengi accurately stated the money contained in his pocket money pouch.

“Correct. Then, if Dad gives 10 Tower Coins to Cuengi, how much will be in Cuengi’s pocket money pouch?”

Cueng!

[Then Cuengi has 110 Tower Coins!]

“Huh?! I said Dad gave you 10 Tower Coins.”

Thinking Cuengi was confused, Se-jun explained.

But,

Cueng! Cueng!

[No! The money hasn’t entered Cuengi’s pocket money pouch yet!]

Cuengi was doing an accurate calculation.

“Huh?!”

Se-jun was left speechless by Cuengi’s reply. Our Cuengi is a genius?!

“Here. How much is it now?”

Se-jun asked, actually handing over 10 Tower Coins.

Cueng!

[Then Cuengi has 120 Tower Coins!]

“Correct. Good job.”

Se-jun praised Cuengi while stroking his body, and

Cuhahaha.

Cuengi smiled brightly at Se-jun’s praise.

While Se-jun and Cuengi were happy like that, the atmosphere between Ajax and Kellion was very bad.

“Hmph! Grandfather, go away!”

-Ajax, calm down. I told you, it was all for your sake.

Kellion was at a loss, trying to appease Ajax, who was sulking at him.

“I don’t care! I’m going to live with Hyung Se-jun now!”

Pitter-patter.

Ajax shouted at Kellion and ran toward Se-jun.

-Sigh.

Kellion was heartbroken at Ajax’s reaction.

At that moment,

-Krahaha. Just ask Se-jun. Tell him to reconcile you with Ajax.

Kaiser, who had been blocked by Aileen but reconciled several times thanks to Se-jun, advised.

-Will that work? Our grandson is extremely stubborn, so once he sets his mind, it lasts for at least a month.

-Don’t worry. Se-jun will resolve it in a single second.

-Really?!

-I’m telling you, it’s true. Se-jun is extremely competent in this regard!

-Then, should I ask?

At Kaiser’s strong recommendation, Kellion asked via telepathic magic to reconcile him with Ajax.

In return, he promised 100 Dragon Tooth Soldiers.

Nod.

Se-jun nodded at Kellion’s request.

When Se-jun spoke to Ajax and took out something to give to him,

Trot, trot.

Ajax, holding a Garaetteok in each of his hands, hesitantly approached Kellion.

“Grandfather, I was so angry earlier that I spoke too harshly. I’m sorry. Hyung Se-jun told me to eat this with Grandfather and reconcile.”

Chuck.

Ajax said as he handed Garaetteok to Kellion.

-Uhehehe. Sure! Let’s eat together.

“Yeah! Grandfather, it’s more delicious if you dip it in honey!”

In that manner, the grandfather and grandson amicably ate Garaetteok.

‘Se-jun, thank you!’

Kaiser sent a grateful look to Se-jun while chewing Garaetteok.

And,

-His anger is appeased just like that?!

-How is that possible?!

Ramter and Tier watched Ajax and Kellion with eyes that could not understand.

‘Our Perion too…’

‘Our Pobi too…’

The two dragons began to contemplate whether they should send their grandchildren to Se-jun.

***

Inside a mansion built in a giant cavern.

“Ah. Good.”

Chew, chew.

Pan Chen lay comfortably in bed, chewing on bamboo and resting.

“Pahat. Those fellows must have turned to ashes by now, right?”

Pan Chen laughed, thinking of Theo and Ppiyot-i, who must have vanished from the world by now.

At that moment,

Knock. Knock. Knock.

“Lord Pan Chen! Lord Pansur is looking for you urgently!”

Pan Chen received Pansur’s call.

“Dad, did you call?”

Pan Chen went to find Pansur like that.

“You rascal! What on earth have you been doing running around?!”

As soon as Pansur saw Pan Chen, he shouted in great rage.

“D… Dad, why are you like this?”

Pan Chen asked, watching Pansur’s reaction.

“Why?! Right now, one of our branches was blown to pieces because of you, and you ask why?!”

“Huh? Those fellows didn’t die?”

Pan Chen asked with a blank expression.

“What?! Those fellows?! Do you not even know who you brought to the branch?”

“Uh… I don’t really know…”

“Sigh…”

Pansur let out a sigh as he looked at his son, Pan Chen.

“My son, the one you brought to the branch is Lord Theo Park, the Golden Cat, subordinate of the Great Black Dragon.”

“What?! Subordinate of the Great Black Dragon?!”

While Pan Chen was flustered by Theo’s identity,

Boom!

A huge explosion was heard.

And,

“Kyu-kyu-kyu-kyu-kyu- Lord Theo, I found you!”

Iona glared at Pansur and Pan Chen from outside the window and called Theo.

“Iona, calm down, meow!”

Theo, who could only make them sign a slave contract if they attacked him, hurriedly stopped Iona. If the kids get scared, they won’t attack, meow!

“Kyu-kyu-kyu- Yes!”

Iona calmed her anger a bit at Theo’s words.

However,

“To think… it is Stage Five…”

Having witnessed Iona’s ‘Kyu of Anger Level Five’, the enemies had already completely lost their will to fight.

Thanks to that, Pansur and the Black Market organization members escaped the clutches of the slave contract.

Ppiyot! Ppiyot!

[Phehehe. This body is Pirrrr Yacht, Lord Theo’s right hand! Throw away your weapons quickly!]

Ppiyot-i introduced himself to the Black Market organization members and disarmed them,

“Tch. What a pity, meow…”

Theo climbed up the wall to the third-floor room where Pan Chen was, feeling regretful.

“Puhuhut. Since Pan Chen targeted the life of Vice President Theo, you must pay 100 trillion Tower Coins as the price of my life, meow! Stamp it, meow!”

Theo thrust a new contract toward Pan Chen.

“Dad…”

Pan Chen, on the verge of tears, looked at Pansur and asked for help, but

“My son, stamp it quickly!”

Pansur instead urged Pan Chen to stamp it.

Becoming a slave of Lord Theo Park, the Golden Cat, subordinate of the Great Black Dragon, was surprisingly not bad.

Although one had to pay back the money if they contracted, Theo usually preferred slaves over receiving money.

Moreover, although the title was slave, he did not treat them as slaves.

And once one became Theo’s slave, other forces would not dare to touch them easily, so there was nothing bad about becoming a slave.

Of course, it would be a completely different story if it were about himself.

“Yes…”

Stamp.

At Pansur’s urging, Pan Chen stamped in despair.

However, there was something Pansur was mistaken about.

Until now, Theo had only made them slaves without taking money because he disliked traveling far.

“Puhuhut. Ppiyot-i, pack everything, meow!”

Ppiyot!

[Yes!]

Since he could receive the money right away, there was no reason not to take it.

“What?!”

Pansur was flustered.

But,

“Kyu-kyu-kyu- Stay still!”

“Yes…”

Pansur could do nothing at the words of Iona, who was keeping watch over him.

Like that, Theo began to plunder the items of the Black Market headquarters without any interference. Puhuhut. There are many things that attract me, meow!

Theo’s steps were extremely light at the thought of being praised by Se-jun.
