Black "admits" he is to keep mains attention, but he's most disappointed that main doesnt have that same love feeling as him
A Modern Man Who Got Transmigrated Into the Murim World
. Wait ch 62 Ch 61 main did want to cause more damage but stopped after his 1st attack bc this enemy has a stronger reputation and connections. He doesn't want to be found as the instigator, instead he will be a visitor thanks to Tang elder. Meanwhile the grand patriarch, Tang's half brother i will name wrinkles, was a very greedy selfish adulterous man who only wants high position and reputation. Thankfully his son is not that stupid and sees his father as an embarrassment and actually did take over patriarch position from his father. So his father is a bitter nagging man without the Tang family's patriarch emblem. When Tang elder came, of course half brother was enraged to see him, but nephew is willing to hear him out. Ch 60 recap, main dislikes the stories of the Tang family after hearing rumors from merchants. Main was at the Tang family bc he needed a special ice spirit item for his northern allies. He encounters a Tang elder and Sword god asks main to spare the Tang elder bc he noticed that Tang elder has signs of being excommunicated. Elder told his story due to a misunderstanding and his half brothers jealousy, he got punished and excommunicated. But Tang elder still has Tang family pride, he just dislikes those who r currently running it. Main goes to cause pain on those brothers for their inhuman actions and being so secluded that they would punish anyone who even talks about them Ch 53 mains business slowly gained favoritism when ppl bought his products and it was a hit, despite some unorthodox ppl tried to stop but main knew their weaknesses so he was able to go around them or get their approval. Then the Jegal member came, they r loyal to the murim and act like investigators under murim law as orthodox. They question main if he's ortho or not for allowing unorthodox and orthodox ppl to coexist. Orthodox r not permitted to associate with anyone from unorthodox Ch 48 namgoong leader did come to scold his son and main for his recklessness to using his name, but main shows his contract with unorthodox and it was to buy time for the namgoong to have another branch in the land property and plant their own martial artists in mains Jo businesses undercover so when the time comes main knows unorthodox will fight back after the 3 yr contract period, namgoong has ppl to protect Jo businesses and their branch, plus namgoong will also gain profit for being employed by Jo clan businesses Ch 44 unorthodox realize the person who attacked them may be related to mains group. They will wait to see how developed their lands are and hope to steal it back. Meanwhile the northerners main wants to recruit arrived. They can use ice magic skills and main has what they desire, rhe frozen item main won from a competition in knowledge, he theorized they can make money with their powers in turn they can use his ice item for their cultivation Ch 41 lol main learned from namgoongs clan leader his techniques that were useful in mains mission to get rid of the unorthodox group's arsenal aiming at mains city to avoid a war. The unorthodox thought it was namgoong doing damage bc main is using their techniques, but it is just to gain attention since they can recognize namgoong techniques vs mains unknown skills. He made a deal unorthodox stop the advancement in turn to sell their land to Jo clan so main won't tell the imperial family that the unorthodox has contraband goods that are supposed to only belong to the imperial family. Evil king recognized mains Jo clan as the ones with the successful business worth 700,000 gold, that's why they prepared so much to gain that wealth. But if Jo clan expanded and moved to the unorthodox territory, that's beneficial for them anyways bc they also want that culture, so they agreed Ch 34 main knows why the neighboring country wants mains business, it is bc main offers services that only his city operates on, it is it's own culture. He can threaten removing his influence and culture and those who r so used to it will crave for it and beg for mains business back. He knows he has that pull and will try to sell his culture to the neighboring lands to expand his business if it means to stop a war happening Ch 29 ahh so the murim alliance is having trouble with an enemy from neighboring country and need support from namgoong. They know main is very influential and wants his support. Main is very clear his business is his own and he will not ally with murim. Only ally he trusts is namgoong family. Namgoong knows main is utilizing their name for protection and asks main to join them so it ensures main is a true allianced member and won't betray them. They wanted main tied in marriage but no one is available to be wedded. So they bend the rules to allow main to be a family member, he just protect namgoong and support them when they call for mains support for main to keep using their sponsored name Ch 28 lol mains business is so huge that other businesses are suffering. They saw mains plaque from namgoong and they complain to namgoong. But the patriarch head likes mains products even tho the complaints are a headache. But then trouble arise when a neighboring country is waging war and the orthodox alliance wants mains influence to join their side for funds but aren't sure if mains individual group is orthodox or evil since it's btwn that range with mains expensive business in clubs getting all the money from their customers Ch 27 dang! After 3 yrs mains business merchant group is booming in similar modern businesses Ch 25-26 main reached the cave that sword god mentioned and sword god found it by chance and tried to learn it, that's why he was strong bc he was enlightened but couldn't fully understand it. Main understood bc the writings were all equations and Korean characters from his timeline, someone from his modern also went back in time to olden era. Main was enlightened by the words of this person and 3 yrs passed. Sword god thinks this was predestined for main to be reincarnated in this timeline and sword god became the bridge to lead main to the cave to decipher the meaning so they both learn Ch 22 mains ancestor sword god noticed the mount Hwa family is corrupted by using demonic arts, he took over mains body and confronted the disciple and the elder over mount Hwa clan and made sure to scare Hwa that they need to stop using demonic arts to save their clan from destruction bc sword god will remove them. Hwa elder recognized sword gods words and arts and then gained enlightenment. Sword god was at least pleased Hwa managed to be enlightened so their Hwa clan won't use the demonic arts anymore Ch 20 main joined the group of martial artists who are on their way to the Mount Hua summit event to compete in martial arts. It's on the way to mains ancestors destination where he kept his scriptures, so main can utilize the martial artists as his guards since there r bandits outside of cities Ch 14-15 mains company grew a lot that they can expand to other businesses and got their raw ingredients themselves without the help of mains merchant partner. Main gave him multiple tries to offer better deals as equals but merchant didn't offer any, so main cut him out. Bc he knew merchant profited double the amount from having exclusive rights to mains products. With no better offers, it's better to go solo especially mains high namgoong plaque giving main status within namgoong territory. Mains plan is to operate inns with better food and offer speedy delivery service with mains invention of the bicycle, not sold to anyone and solely used by mains company. Ch 13 recap, main impressed the namgoong elders with his inner ki that was recently opened and noticeable and they want him as their disciple. Main couldnt really say how he knew his martial arts ki knowledge but said he met a master who told him moves and he competed with one namgoong elder in a hypothetical battle of martial movements like mental chess and main kept winning and did end up gaining a plaque to be sponsored by namgoong in exchange main agreed to be their external disciple to keep mains family name. They wanted to adopt main as their own with their name but mains ancestor the sword king refused and keep the Jo name Ch 8 while main and his older hyung on their way to namgoong clan, mains ancestors communicated and saw mains memories of modern times and understood how advanced those times are. Main is smart and they want to gift him their talents in turn to get revenge against the sama family. Somehow in the past, mains Jo family had massive wealth but was overtaken by the Sama family Ch 6 mains father bestowed their family heirloom to main and it was the same red orb necklace that main in modern was given by his father. The orb contains the voices of past ancestors and they are curious how main can hear them. The orb enables their descendents of bloodline to gain abilities, main told them he's reincarnated so he doesnt know what abilities he has. The ancestors never heard of this but a few were very interested how main was able to reincarnate, and the communication cut off as they converse among themselves so main was left with more questions lol Ch 5 half a yr later and main paid off the loan sharks and the loan by the merchant, merchant is on good terms with main for making a profit but worries bc mains company is doing so well, other merchants or similar in iron making are causing a fuss that mains company is taking their businesses so they aren't making money and may go against main by sending officials to rock the boat. Mains next plan is to gain a very strong sponsor who will back them up so it can deter those jealous ppl, the namgoong clan known for martial arts lineage Ch 4 main managed to get a loan from a merchant group by angering the merchant who was flabbergasted by mains prideful attitude and overconfidence that only mains body will be placed collateral so he can see how valuable main is with his plan. Main utilized his memories of his other life in modern age to give the ideal payment incentives and holiday pay for the workers so they will stay loyal to their company and cannot disclose any work methods and info to outsiders. This ensures that the workers r properly trained and retained in the company, bc mains methods will be more modernized to help this era of olden age, in this timeline, he's considered a genius from modern thought Modern to olden era
