Seondal: The Man Who Sells the River Page #2

What would that be?

Our next job.

Our next job always has to be

bigger and more amazing.

You must be tired.

A bit.

I really wish I could help you.

But since it's your disguise, I'll

force myself not to interfere.

Nothing but talk.

We're almost to Hanyang, so

we should come to an agreement.

Just because we have money,

we can't be extravagant.

You especially must stay away

from the gisaeng houses!

Do you hear me?

Gods of heaven and earth.

Mother of Heaven.

God of thunder.

The 12 mighty gods..

Mother of all the gods...

The god of all generals,

come to us immediately.

Let me take a look. Your son...

Is it your only son?

That's right.

Is something wrong?

Does your son's name contain

the character for "wood"?

That's right.

- Penetrate!

- Penetrate?

I see a poisonous gas that can

penetrate the wood.

If this is allowed to continue,

you will never have grandchildren.

Never have grandchildren?

No! No! It must not be!

Okay, okay.

This is not the solution.

You must calm yourself.

After the full moon,

dissolve this in water and have

him drink it.

This will ward off disaster.

Thank you! Thank you!

Are you there, Shaman?

Aigoo. General, you've come.

I hadn't heard from you in

so long,

I thought you must have

ended up in prison by now.

How could I leave my sweet

shaman alone in this world?

Aigoo. Sweet talker.

Are you sure you weren't just

missing the general's statue?

How could something like

that make me sad?

Didn't you ever think I might

run away with the money?

Run away? If you dare even

think about...

My goodness...

I trust you, Shaman.

Aigoo. I'm very touched.

You and I were both sold to

the Qing Dynasty.

We were treated worse than

dogs or pigs.

Only people who have shed tears

know how to wipe the tears of

others.

We trust each other with

our tears.

Actually, there is one thing

that I still believe in.

What would that be?

In you, Shaman.

That one day, you will finally

open your heart to me.

Do you want this bed to

become your grave?

I knew that wouldn't work!

Why hasn't our Master of Lies

come back yet?

He's probably off drinking

somewhere to relieve boredom.

On the way here, I told him

over and over not to spend

that money recklessly.

On the way here, I told him

over and over not to spend

that money recklessly.

How can In Hong hyeong change?

Let's go, let's go, let's go!

Follow me!

Stop! Stop!

Which gisaeng house shall we

all go to next?

Among the 4 directions the

wind blows, who knows

which gisaeng house has the

most difficult ladies?

East!

Then, to the east we go!

Go, go!

East gisaeng ladies!

As the saying goes, work like a

dog, but spend like a prime

minister.

We'll take this and squander

it together!

Here you go!

Get it!

Thank you, young master.

Why bother bringing that back?

Why not waste it all?

Never mind. Next time, just

send it directly to the gisaeng house.

What's wrong?

Pursuing the fragrance of

flowers is a man's instinct.

Perfecting romance is the

nature of the Master of Lies.

As usual, our Shaman understands

the ways of the world.

Gyeon!

Government troops! Government

troops are here! Run quickly!

Hong Pal, you bastard. I told

you not to throw money around!

Let me see. Are you okay?

Fooled you.

You scared me, you brat.

I see he cared more about

saving the General than me.

Come here, Kid. If not for you,

the shaman...

Hyeong, I even fooled you

this time, right?

Yes, you did a good job.

If I could fool him,

you all promised to let me

join the action.

You will, right?

Nunim, I guess we'll have to

get another general statue.

[nunim=older sister]

You're that happy?

Of course!

First, I will teach you a trick so

your target won't know what

you're thinking.

Really? I will pay close attention.

You're that eager to start

scamming people?

No. I just want to work

along with you.

Kid.

If you're timid, they will

eat you up.

Attack.

Okay.

Do you see these red spots

here?

This is the blood of Japanese

pirates my great-grandfather

beheaded.

Japanese pirates?

A full moon in Hansan-do.

[poem for General Lee Sun Sin]

Sitting alone on a garrison floor.

[poem for General Lee Sun Sin]

Sitting alone on a garrison floor.

[poem for General Lee Sun Sin]

His sword strapped to his waist,

grieving over the problems

afflicting the country.

Hansan-do! You mean the

great general?

Is that really...

You can't, Child.

This sword is an ancestral

treasure not to be sold.

- We should return it to....

- Father!

Are you all right?

Let's go back.

But father, your illness!

They say the days of your

life are numbered.

This sword must never be sold.

Someone could still wield

this sword.

Father!

I give you my word.

With that sword, I will become a

more powerful general than the

great general himself.

Father, buy it.

Happy?

I'm happy!

Okay, how do we do good work?

Enjoy the process.

Right. Enjoy the process.

How should we spend this?

This money? I don't plan to

spend it.

Kid, money is for spending.

I'll spend it later.

How much later?

After I make enough.

I want to go to the Qing Dynasty

and buy back all of our people.

That's really great.

Dampago.

[a type of tobacco]

Next time, let's try dampago.

Now at the market, one pouch

is selling for 1 nyang silver.

Wow, how can they rob us

like that?

Because many people buy it.

But only one person sells it.

The person in Hanyang who

imports it is Seong Dae Ryeon.

We managed to get about

30,000 nyang from the Palace.

He has a warehouse stuffed

with dampago.

It's probably worth more than

100,000 nyang.

100,000 nyang?

It's excellent quality, to be used

as tribute to the Qing Dynasty.

Well? Isn't your mouth watering?

But...

Once it goes to the Qing Dynasty,

it will be too late.

There's no time to lose.

Brothers, come quickly!

The phoenix soup is ready!

Okay, coming!

About Gyeon...

What about him?

Nothing. We'll talk later.

Let's go.

-=Dampago Strategy=-

Seong Jong Ik departs

every day at 6 a.m.

You've arrived, my lord.

His first stop is the tobacco shop

to inspect the tobacco being

sold that day.

After that, he stops for his

breakfast soup.

Afterward, he goes to work

at the dampago warehouse

until sundown.

Last stop is the gisaeng house

for drinks, then heads home,

is that right?

Let's check out the warehouse.

We can't.

Why?

To get into the warehouse, we

must go through a heavily

guarded entrance.

Then we'll need papers stamped

with an official seal.

Even if we have the seal,

Seong Jong Ik has no reason

to give us the seal!

So, Seong Jong Ik can't be

there when we come, right?

So, we will have to lure Seong

Jong Ik away from there.

What about the warehouse guards?

How do we get rid of them

while we empty the warehouse?

Master of Lies can't do it.

Even Grandfather of Lies couldn't.

Should we discuss it over

some drinks?

Sit down.

Why is the gate locked?

It's full of a**holes.
