Quitting the company and opening a cafe Episode 283

He took Hansong-i and Seon-ah, who were trying to escape, and plowed up one side of the garden.

We are plowing a new garden, not an existing one.

‘I thought I’d get the essence.’

There was an essence obtained when the curse of Grandfather Han Deok-hwan was lifted.

as soon as.

[The essence of self-dissolution]

*situation

─Jiseon-geup

*effect

─Can untie a tied knot

When I first saw this I was like, what is this?

It was a local specialty, but the effect was strange.

A tied knot… … I was wondering if it was a real knot, so I analyzed its usage to see if it might have a similar effect to breaking through the limit.

Then it turned out that it could be used in the garden.

I tried to find out other information, but I couldn’t find anything special, so I decided to just use it for the garden.

I had a feeling that somehow, Grandfather Han Deok-hwan owed something to this land, so it seemed right to spend it here.

And it turned out really well.

The garden had been expanded. Thanks to this, Lee Seon-ah and Han Song-i, who were there with him, were also helping to cultivate the newly expanded garden.

‘Actually, I was thinking of asking you to help me pick tea leaves.’

It was an unexpected situation and I couldn’t ask two people to do it.

Because Muruk kept getting angry whenever anyone other than me tried to touch him.

Of course, he didn’t extend the stem and swing it like a whip like he did when he was throwing a tantrum at me.

Instead, they harassed him in other ways, such as by occasionally raising their roots to trip him or by bringing bugs to his hands as he picked leaves.

Fearing that they would get caught, the two ended up going to the garden.

‘Why is this kid so picky?’

It was a strange thing to know. Well, Bongbong’s personality isn’t all that good.

Because other guys besides me try to chase them away with their noises or sting them.

It was fun that each spirit had a different personality, but sometimes it was also tiring.

“How long do you do this?”

“We’re done. Let’s stop there.”

“Wow─! Thank goodness. I almost ran away.”

When I told her that I was almost done, Hansong let out a sigh of relief. Then she sat down and stared blankly at the sky, wiping away the sweat.

Even though the weather wasn’t that hot, there were a lot of frosty leaves.

“Want something cold?”

“Yes─. What is it?”

“Green tea slush.”

“Wow! I like it!”

Green tea is originally cold in nature. So it is even better when drunk cold.

Of course, it’s better to be warm to smell the fragrance.

It was a bit slushy in the fall and not even summer, so I was a little worried, but the sun was still warm, so it seemed okay for now.

It was also easy to make.

Just add green tea syrup, ice, and a little bit of carbonation and blend.

“Okay. You worked hard. Have a drink each.”

The two guys who were lying on the floor each received a glass of slush.

And I drank it right there on the spot.

Gulp! Gulp!

It’s a refreshing sound just to hear.

“Ugh!?”

Of course, if you drink a slushie that quickly, you’ll get a headache.

It was absurd to see the two of them suffering at the same time, but it was also a little funny.

“Ugh.”

“… … Did you get that in the meantime, oppa?”

Unlike Lee Seon-ah, who groaned for a little longer, Han Song-i quickly came to her senses and asked.

I was talking about other tea leaves.

This was taken from Muruk while they were plowing the ground.

“That’s what it is.”

Actually, the spirits helped too.

“But are you going to make all of that with green tea?”

“This? No. I’m going to make half black tea.”

“Huh? Black tea?”

“Oh. And I’m going to use half of these to make some more pu-erh tea.”

“Boy, is that expensive?”

I nodded to Hansong’s words.

There was a perception that Pu-erh tea was expensive because it took a lot of time and effort to make.

Of course, if you look it up, the prices will vary greatly, but anyway.

It couldn’t be cheap.

“I heard that there are some that have been fermented for over 30 years. I can’t drink that.”

“If you’ve been here for 30 years, won’t you get to try it someday?”

“Huh? Oppa, you’ve been here for 30 years? You said you could barely make it for 10 years before.”

“Did I do that?”

It seemed like that too.

But now, it feels like I could just do this for the rest of my life. There’s no time to get bored, and the work is rewarding.

Even though I didn’t do anything particularly special today, all the adults came and complimented me.

This is the first time I’ve received so many compliments for something I’ve done since I did well on the college entrance exam in my third year of high school and got into college.

Well, at that time, since no one came to the village even though I had hung up a placard, I only heard compliments for the photos my grandfather took.

Anyway, it seemed like I could probably do it for more than the 10 years that I had contracted for.

“But what do you plant here?”

Lee Seon-ah, who had just recovered from her dizziness, asked.

What will they plant in the land they worked so hard to till?

If you say something you are not satisfied with, he will eat you up.

Actually, he could just go home, but he insists on helping me out by saying that he is the content creator.

Anyway, he’s a dishonest guy.

“What is it? It’s a sweet potato.”

“……sweet potato?”

“Yeah. Sweet potatoes.”

“Pumpkin sweet potato?”

“No. It’s just a sweet potato.”

The basis of sweet potatoes is the chestnut sweet potato. Where is the pumpkin sweet potato?

Of course it tastes good.

“Sweet potatoes? Just sweet potatoes in the field I plowed?”

I don’t know what part shocked me, but I shook my head and ignored Lee Seon-ah’s muttering to herself.

I guess the heady taste of the green tea slush was too shocking.

“Wow~ Sweet potatoes look delicious. Then, do you eat them roasted here? In the winter?”

“That’s right.”

“and!”

Hansong liked it.

In winter, roasted sweet potatoes are truly the best snack.

Of course, that required some more preparation.

I was starting to need it anyway… … .

“I’m going to town tomorrow. Do you want to go with me?”

“… … Why? What are you making me do now?”

Lee Seon-ah was wary of what I said.

A quick-witted guy.

On the other hand, Hansong showed curiosity.

“Why? What are you doing again?”

“I’ll buy some sweet potato seedlings and stop by the hardware store too.”

“Aha~! Ah! But I can’t work this time, so I think I’ll just have to work for the time being.”

this.

Hansong-i took her foot off the ground.

Moving sweet potato seedlings isn’t easy… … What a shame. Did I tell you that for nothing?

There’s no way around it. Those two helped me a lot today, so I decided to pass.

By the way, when I think about going to buy some seedlings, I think of that guy, Sim Woo-jin.

It seems like you’re doing well at baseball.

“Writer Han. Su-ah asked me to go watch a baseball game. Can I go with you?”

“I heard it from Su-ah a while ago. It’s a little tight, but… … I’m going to go anyway.”

“Really? Don’t push yourself too hard.”

“Yes! But I think it would be really fun.”

Hansong-i was determined to go.

Because of that, going to town tomorrow has become completely impossible.

It wasn’t like Hansong-i was going to be of much help, so I wasn’t that disappointed.

“Then let’s wrap it up.”

The work of cultivating the extended garden is finished.

And the two left the cafe first.

Originally, I thought she was going to stay until Su-ah came, but Han-song-i left because she had been out of the house for too long and had a lot to clean up.

Lee Seon-ah was eventually caught by the village chief.

No, if that’s the case, why are you working here too?

‘Oh, it’s because of me.’

Lee Sun-ah was trying to rest, you know.

I’m a little sorry about this.

Next time, I should make something delicious.

Today, you helped me a lot.

The rude lady was like that, and the story about Grandpa Han Deok-hwan was like that too.

The more I think about it, the more sorry I feel.

Of course, since Lee Sun-ah also filmed a lot of content, it wasn’t a complete loss.

“Still, I want to do something.”

Since you’re a peach ghost, I’d like to make something with peaches, but it’s not the season for peaches anymore… … Should I make green tea jelly?

It’s perfect as a snack or to recharge your sugar levels.

I just happened to pick a lot of tea leaves.

“… … To make green tea, I have to roast, steam, and dry this.”

Since I had to make half of the black tea, I had to take care of that separately.

We will use the fermentation room in Tori’s Cave, but there is a process that needs to be done before that.

“I should have told him to help me out a little more before he left.”

It was for nothing that I sent Han Song-i and Lee Seon-ah away early.

Oh, I didn’t send her because Lee Seon-ah was caught. Anyway… … I didn’t have time to sit around blankly because of the overflowing work.

I decided to start quickly.

‘By the way. I expected it, but the talent wasn’t absorbed.’

I checked my text window while washing the tea leaves.

The aura that Grandfather Han Deok-hwan gave off only created essence and did not absorb talent.

Instead, another talent grew.

That was the talent of the native.

‘It’s already a 4 star, so the level is the same, but it has definitely grown.’

I felt it.

The energy of the unified native land has become stronger.

I was wondering how the unified energy would grow, but it seemed like it was accumulated little by little like experience.

I’m not sure if it’s because of the unified energy, but I’m satisfied that I’ve grown a little more.

I also learned some new facts.

So I guess I’ll have to work hard again.

I hope the pleasant compliments I received today continue.

* * *

The next day. I left for town early.

Because I was thinking of going out and coming back before the guests arrived.

“Hello~ You’re here today.”

“I wonder if I crossed a river from which I cannot return?”

As soon as I arrived in town, I went straight to Jongmyo Temple.

But then he immediately greets you with a spicy greeting.

“Haha. That’s impossible. I heard. You went on a trip.”

“Hey. Who told you that boring story?”

“My name is Woojin Shim and I am a baseball student.”

“He doesn’t play baseball, so what does he do instead?”

“No. I heard you’re playing baseball these days. But has that happened before?”

“That’s what happens when you’re really into it. You even ask me to do annoying tasks.”

also.

Shim Woo-jin was no ordinary guy.

Even the grandmother at the seed store is getting sick of it.

“Did you enjoy your trip?”

“It was fun. I almost died from the heat.”

“Where did you go?”

“Where am I? Phuket? I don’t know either. I just went because you asked me to.”

“You went to a nice place. Did you eat a lot of delicious food?”

Judging from the smile on the old lady’s lips, it seems like it was quite an enjoyable trip.

You’re not the type of person who smiles that much.

Well, it’s obvious that the children would not have fun traveling abroad together.

“But. Why did you come again?”

“Oh, right. I’d like to buy some sweet potato seedlings. Do you have any?”

“Why do you always come here missing the planting season? When are you going to eat the sweet potatoes you planted now?”

“Will it take a long time? Please give it to me anyway. I’ll plant it first.”

My grandmother gave me a worried look.

And from now on, he told me to call in advance and bring sweet potato seedlings.

“The water there is really clear. You should go there sometime. You should go when you are young. It’s no fun when you go when you are old.”

“Is that so? Haha. I’ll go and check it out later.”

“Okay. Go with your young wife.”

“Hmm. It would be harder to find someone to go with. I’ll go alone first.”

“Hey! Your limbs are fine. Anyway, you’re feeling good there too.”

I laughed at my grandmother’s words and said I would definitely go there sometime.

I’m not interested in traveling abroad, but after hearing about it, I was a little curious.

How different is the energy from our country? And is there any chance of it being available overseas?

‘Is it only our country that has lost its territory?’

I guess I’ll have to check that out to find out.

Anyway, I really need to think about traveling abroad.

Even if it’s not necessarily Turkey, I’m curious about what other countries’ drinks are like.

“The coffee is sweet and savory, just like our country.”

Especially the coffee that my grandmother gave a thumbs up to.

I left Jongmyo Temple after receiving such a recommendation.

And headed to the hardware store.

“huh?”

But here too… …you went on a trip?
