Trash of the Count's Family

“Anhui Province?”

Raon tilted his head in confusion.

"Where is that place?! Give us a map!”

Cale motioned to Chief Eunuch Wi with his eyes and Chief Eunuch Wi received a map from the eunuch next to him before he cautiously opened it up on the table.

“The Imperial Palace is here in Beijing.”

Chief Eunuch Wi pointed to Beijing on the map before pointing toward Anhui Province.

“Since the olden days, Anhui Province has had a vast plain along with fertile lands. Farming is very advanced in that area. There are a lot of people with large properties there and the people are affluent compared to other regions.”

“Hoooo!”

Raon’s eyes sparkled as he asked.

“Then is the Namgung Clan rich too?”

Chief Eunuch Wi thought that this mysterious creature was cute after hearing that question in an extremely bright voice. He couldn't help it because the tightly clenched front paw, chubby cheeks, and protruding belly continued to catch his attention.

“Yes, sir. They are the wealthiest of the Orthodox faction's Five Great Clans.”

“Oh! Human, apparently the Namgung Clan has a lot of money!”

Cale looked unsettled as he nodded his head at Raon, whose eyes were exaggeratedly sparkling.

‘...He’s not saying we should loot the Namgung Clan, right?’

He slowly started avoiding Raon's gaze.

A person's life could be completely ruined trying to loot one of the Martial Arts world’s clans. They needed to be careful.

“Anyway, the clothes suit you all very much.”

Chief Eunuch Wi cautiously commented. Cale could tell that Chief Eunuch Wi was trying to build a good relationship with them.

“All of you look wonderful.”

It was at that moment.

“Kahahahahaha!”

They heard someone's loud laughter through the open window.

“Choi Han, your fainting skills are truly admirable! Kahahaha! Come at me!”

Cale's gaze headed out the window.

In the small training ground attached to the guest house...

Toonka had his fists up while charging toward Choi Han. Although Toonka had been the one to say come at me, he was the one charging toward Choi Han as usual.

Boom!

Toonka was also the one who took one hit and got slammed into the training ground floor.

“...That sir looks quite reliable as well.”

Cale grumbled back at Chief Eunuch Wi.

“Like hell he’s reliable. He looks like someone the leader of the Green Forest would bow to.”

“Mm.”

Chief Eunuch Wi could not retort back.

“Human, what is a Green Forest?”

“Bandits.”

He explained in detail after hearing Raon’s question.

“There are your typical bandits but the Green Forest is an organization bandits gathered together to create. They are usually a part of the Unorthodox faction. Isn’t that right, Chief Eunuch Wi?”

“Yes, sir. That’s right. There are 72 Green Forest branches.”

Chhh.

They heard tea cups being filled with a slightly red tea at that moment.

Cale looked at Ron, who was holding the tea kettle.

“You seem to know quite a lot about it, young master-nim.”

Cale flinched.

‘No, well, I just-”

“It is amazing. I wonder how you know so much about it.”

He slowly avoided Ron’s gaze. He then touched his long sleeves as if this was weird for him.

“It feels awkward because I've never worn clothes like this before.”

This was the truth.

Such baggy clothes were even weirder right now because twenty years old Kim Rok Soo's body was extremely skinny.

“It still suits you well, sir.”

Chief Eunuch Wi looked at Ron.

“I heard that this sir picked the clothes out. You have quite the discerning eye.”

Cale started talking the moment a slightly fishy smile appeared on Ron’s face.

“Of course! Ron is the one who always prepares my clothes. He has a great discerning eye!”

“Yes, sir. Blue suits you very well.”

Cale was currently wearing clothes made of blue yet indigo-like silk. Although there was no special embroidery on it, the material itself made it obvious that it was the highest quality silk available.

“It is the same color as my eyes!”

Raon liked it.
