Lawmaker, Live Again - Episode 529
Chapter 529
In this way, the gifted students who were recruited under the order of the deputy mayor arrived in Jin Cheon-hee's other world..
“Senior, what on earth is this??”
“Ah, don’t you know? This is called a ticket. The Deputy County Manager sometimes calls it ‘graph’. This allows us to speed up our work..”
“Oh my god, this is impossible. this is the graph…….”
“If you can't learn it, I'll give you a special shovel. rookie.”
“Dedicated shovel?”
“yes. It is a tool for digging into the ground once, stepping on it with your feet, and then digging with all your might. Depending on assembly, it can also be used as a pickaxe..”
“Why would I use a shovel like this? senior.”
“Used to push mountains. If you don't learn graphs, you will soon..”
“What is this! Me, a genius in the Central Plains, who learned a thousand characters at the age of five and mastered the basics, the Four Books and Three Classics, and the study of rites at the age of eight.?”
“Congratulations! Newbie. You are the weakest among us..”
The senior mastered the Thousand Characters at the age of four and learned Sohak at the age of seven..
The senior at the desk next to me was the same, and even the guys digging the hill behind me with a shovel were the same..
Everyone in their village who receives this monthly salary is said to be a genius since childhood..
Kwagwagwagwang!
A loud noise rings out from the mountain behind..
When I looked at him in surprise, the senior said calmly:.
“They say they are in the process of breaking through the mountain with Geomgang. Now the civil engineering seniors will clean up after themselves..”
The senior said.
“Welcome to the world of sunlight. rookie.”
Does that mean that if you learn what that graph is, you don’t have to do that?.
“Wow, newbie. Have you mastered arithmetic??”
“It is not a lowly science that only street merchants learn.?”
I wonder why the seniors just laughed at that statement..
“……Congratulations! I'll make a new friend in the civil engineering department..”
The newbie couldn't understand what he was talking about. then again.
Kwagwagwagwang!
“The deputy mayor is destroying everything with great ease..”
“No, I heard that Il-Gwang is definitely at the level of Hwa-Gyeong, but why on earth would he use such an exquisite martial skill to just break stones??”
“…….”
Kwagwang, Kwagwagwagwang!
seniors said.
“Il-gwang is really that kind of guy. Adapt to it.”
“Even though you learned a thousand characters at the age of five and mastered the basic sciences and the Four Books and Three Classics at the age of eight, but you don't even know arithmetic, it's great to have you pick up a shovel and send it to the civil engineering department..”
“no… how… crazy… Why me, this precious talent? why?”
Kugugugugung Palace!
Again, the sound of daylight pushing against a mountain echoes from afar..
Suddenly, an old woman stopped working and put her hands together and put her hands together towards the source of the sound..
“No, why on earth are you praying towards the sunlight? All you're doing is smashing a rocky mountain without martial arts, so why on earth is everyone respecting you??”
“You're talented in civil engineering. Talented person. If you're going into civil engineering, you have to memorize the contour lines..”
“What are contour lines??”
That's another world of daylight.
A hard-headed person cannot survive..
For some reason, the seniors looked at this newcomer with very pitiful eyes..
“Make sure you eat a good meal beforehand..”
“……?”
“Did you prepare comfortable shoes? If you don't have it, I'll lend it to you..”
“……?”
“Bamboo rice balls are sold in front of you, so be sure to take them with you..”

In this world where there is no TV or U-tube, isn’t the best entertainment the prefectural trial and the fucking sword dance?.
Of course, there is no excitement like in the Joseon Dynasty where you dance and decide whether to cut someone or not, but they do cut you with one blow with a large axe..
In that sense, the Hua Empire is a bit… … Medieval European style..
Instead of executing the old Hyeonseung, they sent him a slave, tied him to a rope, and made him walk around the village in a ceremony..
So the approval rating of the acting mayor has skyrocketed..
I emptied the warehouse with the intention of showing off what I was doing, and rice and gold poured out..
In short, it was money earned through illegal usury..
In order to pay harsh taxes, the common people had to borrow money from Hyeonseung, but strangely, the amount of taxes the government told them to pay was different from the amount of taxes actually collected..
Since this was proof that not only Hyeonseung but also the previous Hyeonyeong had been cheated, they found Hyeonseung's secret ledger, added the testimonies of the civilians who paid the money, and fired it at the imperial palace..
The civilians who have already committed suicide... … There was no family left, so a neighbor did it for them..
your majesty? No.
If I sent it there any longer, it would cause trouble, so I sent it to Han Yi-jeong..
‘I hope the little ball I shot explodes and creates a bright fireworks display..’
I blew it away, remembering the Reverend Fireworks Festival of dreams and hope..
Could it be that only Hyunseung and Hyeonryeong did it?.
The inspector who passed by here must have done it, and we will have to see if the guy who appointed the prefecture also traded government positions..
If you set it on fire properly, everyone will take the express train to Hwangcheon..
In the first place, the land around Jiangsu Province is good..
Although the land itself is small, the sedimentary soil created by the Yangtze River makes most of Jiangsu Province fertile land..
Such fertile land produces enormous rice yields..
It is also close to the sea, so it is good for maritime trade, and it is also close to a river, so logistics can be moved there as well..
There are a lot of mudflats, so there are a lot of clams and crabs..
In a land like this, even though it is only Lake Icheon near Baekrin Uigak, there would be a lot of income that could be earned..
Master went to the mountains near the hot springs area to kill less people and maintain his health, but he still had to function as a royal guard, so he chose Jiangsu Province..
It is truly a sin of the people of this world to make fun of such great land without developing it..
I came to another world, so why aren’t I developing it?.
Even the roads are cleared! Make land too!
Kuwagwanggwang--!
Wave the wise man's wand at the officials who look at him like he's crazy.!
Kwagwang, Kwagwagwanggwang!
“Hehe, daylight… … . I only heard it verbally. Are you really cutting down a mountain with a knife?!?”
“No, but why on earth are you using precious sword steel to break rocks??”
“They say it is to build a road, but why build a road when there is the Yangtze River?……?”
Listen. Foolish officials, roads are better than more..
In addition, the Yangtze River overflows every summer, causing serious flood damage, so flood control work needs to be done in advance now..
‘This limestone and granite that I'm breaking now will have to be used for measurements..’
I'm not trying to leave behind something great like King Yao and Shun..
Flood control is essential to prevent people, cows, and horses from being washed away in floods, and for that purpose, these boulders will come in handy..
‘There are some modern techniques that I have studied..’
If you grind this limestone and mix it with sand, it becomes amazing cement..
And if you mix volcanic ash,?
That's the Greek and Roman method..
The main mountain of Baekrin Uigak is located in a volcanic area, so it is easy to obtain volcanic ash..
“Why on earth is daylight chopping up the cliff??”
“They say it's good for moving..”
“That's why the trees were cut down and aligned horizontally.?”
“They say that if you use a cut down tree as a wheel and send the cut rocks down, you can use less manpower..”
Kugwagwagwagwang!
size--!!
Civil engineering work!!
“Why do you wear a yellow wooden helmet on your head??”
“I took the lead in saying that safety comes first. See the green cross?”
The gifted students are all holding each piece of equipment and looking at it with fascination..
“how… … how strong is it.”
“I heard that the powerful people are strong, but at this level, they will never be inferior to the abilities of the royal family..”
“Rather, I heard that the sunlight is strangely strong..”
The gifted students took a deep breath and watched Il-gwang's behavior..
‘In the future, these people will take care of the county instead..’
The total number of gifted students requested by Jin Cheon-hee is twenty-two..
I plan to sing more later, but for now, twenty-two.
I asked Seolgyeon why he was asking me to bring so many people, but that was just nonsense. Some of them wouldn't be able to bear it and would have to leave..
It is definitely an advantage that the green bonus is strong and the medical benefits of Baeklin Uigak are available..
Aren’t they even unemployed?.
While resting for a long time, he wrote poems about the emperor and compared them to loaches and crows, lamenting the Chinese Empire ruled by traitors..
As a Confucian, he would have written an appeal and reported it..
As time goes by and you are unemployed, you will want to do something..
Since the personality test was conducted by the owner himself, he will not be shaken even if he faces considerable adversity..
However, you have to learn arithmetic, which you will never see in your life, and you have to learn tables..
Also, there are a lot of things to learn, such as contour lines and all, so you have to learn them first.?
In addition, those with low scores must be brought to a civil engineering site and learn through their own eyes how a county representative pushes a mountain and clears a road. They also have to carry stones.?
It's crazy.
‘But I need it.’
If you just sit at a desk, you will only see civil engineering and dimensions on paper..
You probably won't be able to tell whether the rock someone is dragging is granite or limestone, or whether the tree is a maple or a pine tree..
And if you decide what's comfortable and someone takes advantage of it, you won't know how it goes..
That's how all corruption happens.
‘So someone has to learn.’
Here, there are about three prefectures needed for Baekrin-hyeon (the name was changed at this point because it was a town given to Baekrin Uigak)..
And those who remain will assist Baekrin County and Baekrin Uigak..
How many of these will survive?.
Please, I need to endure at least one more person..
“Hey, my little girl, when are you going to feed me??”
It's a snow dog.
“Are you still not back??”
“Damn. Wherever a beggar goes, he feels like a beggar. Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk..”
She laughed in a harsh tone and tapped Jin Cheonhee on the back..
“In that sense, I want to beg for lunch from Baek Seon-gwang-ui..”
It doesn't seem like I just stopped by to get a meal, it seems like there was some real other reason.?
I decided to take my time.
* * *
“Hehehe, I've finished my business in Jiangsu Province anyway, so I have to go back now..”
She shook the spoon she used to scoop up the soup..
Seolleongtang splashed everywhere, but Jin Cheon-hee remained calm..
Considering the crazy nature of the snow dog, I should have been thankful that I didn't eat it with my bare hands..
At least I'm just pretending to hold a spoon in front of a doctor who is extremely sensitive to cleanliness..
“You came to see my face one last time..”
“okay. I was on the move because a blood clot broke out in the town below me..”
“It explodes loudly?”
“About five factions fought over the elixir. It's not that crazy. There are two factions and three political factions, so it's a war. Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.”
I know that something happened through Yeo Ha-ryun..
But after hearing the story, it seems to be growing bigger than expected..
“What are the Apostolic Alliance and the Murim Alliance doing?…….”
“I tried to mediate, but I failed~? In the end, both Maeng and Ryeon broke off for fear that it would turn into a political war. Neither side intervenes at all?”
“Then it will become more intense..”
“yes. Two out of five have already been almost destroyed. Perhaps Sega's reputation may be lost..”
Author's Note
The photos finally arrived from the company and I am posting them like this..
Some of you may have already seen it in person or searched on the Internet, but I am uploading it here belatedly..
Merry Christmas once again everyone! happy new year!
