Chapter 14: I am a Friend of the Governor of Suwon [2]

“Sir, there he comes again.”

“Is he? He must be out of his mind.”

The person whom Dolseok and Ganghyuk pointed was the very Governor of Suwon, Mr. Kim Yungil.

He experienced the incredible effects of Viagra and then he came to the clinic every day.

Nobody can stop him.

“Shee, go away. Here goes the Governor.”

At first he came alone secretly but now he came candidly.

He brought not only his private servants but also public servants such as public slaves or clerks and low-ranking administrators.

Of course, he rode a horse.

Thus the waiting place in front of the clinic was more crowded.

“He came yesterday and comes today again. His thing will hurt.”

Ganghyuk looked at Governor who came to him pushing his way through the crowd.

Of course, Ganghyuk wore a smile on the face.

He was the strongest in Suwon so Ganghyuk could not help.

‘I have something to ask a favor.’

Governor himself wore a smile on his face.

To him Ganghyuk was a savior.

“Hi, Ganghyuk, did you have good sleep?”

“Yes, sir. Did you, too?”

“Yes, it is all owing to you. Heom heom.”

The governor held the silk pouch out.

He saw the silk pouch yesterday and the day before, too.

It was used as a container for Viagra.

“Here it is.”

“Thank you.”

He was about to leave after getting the pill.

Ganghyuk stopped him.

“Sir?”

“Eum? Something wrong?”

It was Ganghyuk who called him.

He stopped and looked back.

“Could you do me a favor?”

“Of course, say it.”

He seemed to do anything for him.

He even jumped down from the horse.

“Oh”

Somebody exclaimed who was waiting in the queue.

There were only a few who could see the Governor face by face.

Most of them were retired high-ranking officials like Seungmun.

They were astounded to see Ganghyuk was one of them.

“I have a favor. I heard that you have a house in the marketplace.”

The governor was a typical corrupted official and Suwon was one of rich towns as Gaeseong, Ganghwa and Gwangju.

Therefore, he had big fortune.

He had houses and lands not only in the market place but also in various places such as Suwon, Gyeonggi and Hanyang.

“Yes, I do. Why do you want to live there? Do you want to marry?”

“No, it is not that what I want. I want to open a clinic there.”

“In the marketplace?”

“Yes, look at this, It is a scholar’s house but it looks like…”

Ganghyuk pointed the people who were waiting there. There were more than 20 people.

Although Seungmun’s house was big enough, it was too much crowded everyday.

He felt sorry for Seungmun who was a scholar itself.

He could not write a poem and he could not have many visitors because of the crowd.

The governor nodded his head showing his understanding.

“Yes, that’s right. These days, your father roamed out and that must be the reason.”

“Yes, sir. Could you do that for me?”

He bent his head and tried to read what he was thinking.

As a matter of fact, he told only half of the reasons why he wanted to have a clinic outside.

Low class people like Aeogae performance group could not come in the house because it was a nobleman’s house.

Most of the waiting people in the yard were laymen who had some fortune.

‘I need them to get information. If I am here, it is difficult to contact them.’

Additionally, whenever Seungmun saw him, he always asked him to read Confucian books. It was really bothersome.

If he had a place in the marketplace, he would be freer.

‘OK. You can use that house. It is my reward for your treatment. Is that OK?”

“Yes, sir.”

“Good. You can take a look and arrange the place as you want. I think you will not need to repair. It was not long ago that I put new hay roofs on the house.

“Thank you, sir.”

The governor was a typical corrupted official and sex addict but he was quite loyal.

He gave the best house that he had in the marketplace.

Additionally, he had it cleaned completely so that Ganghyuk can use right away.

The yard was very large so it could accommodate many patients.

Dolseok came into the room flaring his nostrils.

“I like the smell of the marketplace.”

“I felt stuffed in the house but now I feel free here in the marketplace.”

“Yes, sir. But what would you do with the rewards that people brought every day?”

“I will ask father to send a cart. I don’t know if a cart can carry the all.”

Ganghyuk pointed people who were waiting out there.

It was too much for Dolseok to assist Ganghyuk alone so some of the people from Aeogae performance group gave the hands.

Since there was no performance that day, Yeoni and Makbong were there to help Dolseok.

Makbong distributed number plates that he carved on the wooden panel.

“Yeoni, come here.”

With Ganghyuk’s call, she ran to him.

“Yes, sir. Do you have something to order?”

“Did you search for the person who knew Korea?”

“Yes I did. We went to Anseong not only roaming around Suwon. But…”

As he did not expect too much, he was not much disappointed.

‘It would be good if I could remember what I did before I came here.’

He remembered that he touched something.

But he did not remember what he touched. Thus it was useless memory.

“OK, I see.”

“I am sorry to make you disappointed.”

“No, it is OK. Please keep searching.”

“Yes, sir. I will ask patients, too.”

“Yes, thank you.”

Ganghyuk looked around the yard after Yeoni left.

There were already many people, although it was still early in the morning.

‘The sun becomes hot.’

It was early summer.

When he arrived in Joseon, it was spring. Time flew fast.

He could not find any clue how he could go back to his world.

It seems that the possibility that he had to live in this world becomes bigger and bigger.

‘Ei. It is better to work now. Make money. Money.’

It would be no harm to have wealth regardless time and place.

Joseon was not an exception.

“Dolseok, let’s start the examination.”

“Yes, sir. Now we will begin today’s examination! Come inside one by one.”

With his remark, patients rushed into the clinic.

“Eoheo! Come inside one by one.”

Dolseok did not spare thrusting his fist into people’s face even when it was certain that those people were common people.

It was partly because he was from common people although he worked as a servant then. But it was mostly because of the background of Ganghyuk.

One of the loyal patrons was the governor of Suwon so he was afraid of nothing.

Even noblemen were waiting for their turn silently.

Ganghyuk used common language to most of patients.

He has already been accustomed to the hierarchical society.

If he came as a layman or a slave, it would be difficult. But he was a nobleman.

He asked a middle-aged person who lay on the futon.

“How do you feel?”

“I feel better with your medicine, sir.”

“Ok, let’s see.”

He examined his abdomen with the stethoscope and found it became better.

When he first visit the clinic, he even sharted (shit coming out with fart). Considering that he became much better.

“It is not an infection so you don’t need to worry. You can stop taking the medicine.”

“Thank you, sir”

The patient left some rice on the cart in the backyard and went back home.

‘That will make a meal for Dolseok.’

It was their discreet how much they would pay. Therefore, there was some deviation.

Noblemen gave leather, dried beef or fish for their face but common people paid in rice.

Sometimes, there were fellows who tried to steal. Then Yeoni or Makbong solved the case.

Just as this case.

“Hey, Rat. You try to steal?”

Yeoni shouted to a man who was much taller than her.

But he could not protest as he committed a crime and the atmosphere was something frightening.

‘I am sorry. I made a mistake.”

“We cannot keep you like this.”

Yeoni jumped and kicked his shoulder with her heel.

“Auch!”

He was made knelt with some dreadful sound.

He shouted with loud voice out of the pains.

“Help me, I am dying.”

Ganghyuk watched the scene for a while and then came out of the room.

“Is it painful?”

“Yes, sir. Please help me.”

“Haha, Ok.”

Ganghyuk touched his shoulders and continued his speech.

“Your shoulder was dislocated when you fell down. I will treat it. But the fee is around 18 kilo of rice. Understand?”

“18 kilo? That is too much…”

“If you cannot, you will be brought to the court for prosecution as a thief. Makbong.’

“Yes, sir.”

Yeoni was frightening but Makbong was a level up.

The man went pale.

“Yes, I will pay.”

“Ok. It may give some pains. Be patient.”

Ganghyuk relocated his shoulders in the right position.

He bent his body and bowed many times touching his shoulders.

“Thank you. Thank you.”

“Ok.”

“Then, later…”

“Are you crazy? Makbong, follow him and get the fee.”

“Yes, sir.”

He acted viciously but his skill was the best.

The dislocated shoulder was treated perfectly.

Patients were waiting for his turn enthusiastically.

During the examination, there was loud noise outside.

Ganghyuk looked out to see if there was another thief.

“Who are they?”

It seems there was a government official.

A nobleman was sitting on the horse with his belt showing his status. He looked around arrogantly.

He looked funny as he sat on the cushion instead of saddle.

“Go away! Here is the mayor of Anseong.”

Soldiers ran wild with the clubs.

Ganghyuk knew the hierarchy of officials in Jeseon then.

Governor of Suwon was Grade 3 so he was a high-ranking official.

But mayor? He was at best Grade 6.

Of course, Ganghyuk was not an official but he could not do that in this house.

‘It is a strange face. He may not know that this house belongs to the governor.’

Ganghyuk kept working.

While he was examining the patient, a low-ranking official or a clerk came forward.

“Is there a doctor? The Mayor of Anseong wants to see the doctor. Come forward.”
