Congressman, Live Again - Episode 620
Episode 620
Dang! Dang! Deng!
The bell rings.
People who cut down a tree and dig up its roots leave the pickaxe or axe in place and start moving..
“Hey Mr. Wang! It's lunch time. Let's eat and do it.”
“wait for a sec… This guy… It was good!”
puck!
A man called Mr. Wang delivers the final blow to the base of the tree..
Jeokjeok!
Then the tree fell to the side..
“Whiu. Let's go eat now.”
royal gold.
Born into an ordinary farming family, he was one of the refugees who flooded into the area now named Seobaekrin..
Like most people in this era.
Why is he here, who used to make a living by borrowing Toho's farmland and doing sharecropping??
That's because farming in the area where he lived was ruined..
There was a bad harvest, and he, a tenant farmer, was at a point where he couldn't survive..
In the end, it was this man named Wang Geum who ran away at night with his family and came to Seobaeklin County with the intention of working at the port to support his family..
To him, this project is no different from a rope sent down from the sky..
Give me all my meals.
They also gave him plenty of money. Moreover, if you take part in this work, even if you are a refugee, you will be accepted as a citizen of the county and a new title will be issued..
Last winter was quite harsh, so in fact, there were quite a lot of refugees from nearby Baeklin County..
It is natural that most of them jump into this construction project..
The king heard that the number was over 10,000 people..
Of these, half of the construction involved was road construction and sewerage construction..
Wang Geum is working at a construction site on one of the roads..
Boeung (寶應), the most prosperous village in the West Baeklin, is a port city on the lake and famous for trade and entertainment..
Construction is underway to build a road that connects directly to Dongbaekrin County Office and at the same time connects directly to Baekrin Uigak..
The original roads will be repaired, and where there are no roads, new roads will be created..
Estimated construction period is approximately 3 months!
Extreme construction period.
Still, after working like this for a while, I feel like I can live comfortably next year, so I’m not worried..
“These days, living in Baeklin County has become easier..”
“right. The Emperor has already sorted it out once. Actually, you don’t know the details below, do you?.”
“yes.”
The common people nodded their heads in a hurry..
“They say all the corrupt officials have been caught and the new officials are so good at their jobs..”
“Baekrin's line, world and daylight, long live the wise man!”
“Uh-huh, long live... … . Isn’t that disloyal?!”
“And the light of day! How crazy is our prefectural deputy?!”
“When you first started construction, didn't you say Ilgwang was the one who ordered you to do strange things??”
At those words, Wang Geum's face turned red and he screamed..
“Oh my! That's a long time ago! And was it just me! Everyone said that.”
* * *
Ah, don’t you know? This is a small pump.
In other words, it is a manual water pump. And this is a toilet seat.
A place to present this to officials.
In the past, to get water, you had to throw a bucket at a local well and then pull it up by hand..
Of course, the water that spills as the bucket rises is also water, and it is also very time-consuming..
For the elderly and weak, even getting water is a huge pain..
Plus, since he is a strongman, the story always starts with poisoning the well..
The biggest problem is this.
It's too easy to poison the well.
The assassins are going to great lengths to catch Kang Ho-in, no matter how much the villagers stand guard..
It's not once or twice that if you drop a single opinion, you'll be in trouble without a word..
Even though the poison that only causes poisoning without significantly changing the taste of water is expensive, would it be as expensive as all the long-term people??
Plus, even if the taste of the water changes a bit, you might think, ‘Oh, the water tastes weird. Everyone, stop drinking!’ The one who says ‘Stop drinking!’ is the main character of the martial arts magazine..
In reality, it was soup made by my grandmother. I'm not sure if I should say that my liver is weird, but I've already emptied the entire bowl..
When things get out of hand like that, even local lawmakers get mentally upset..
Even well water is connected, so in some cases it reaches the next village..
There is no CCTV or resident registration here, so it is impossible to find out which assassin did it. Yang Min just dies..
On the other hand, the Jakdu pump is a conventional pump device that uses the principle of a piston, and was installed quite often in Korea in the past..
take poison here?
First you have to open it, you can do it, but it's much more complicated than a well..
I had Hao-moon sprinklers check it, and even if I said to be quiet, would the head pump be quiet??
If you tear it open, a neighborhood dog will come and bark at you..
Even if you can't stop the peak spray, you can still filter out the first-class spray..
Helen, can you feel it? This is Water. Water.
It was like that. Mr. Sullivan and the village head pump contributed to Helen Keller's enlightenment..
‘Now, it has disappeared since water pipes were installed in every house, but it was quite useful before that..’
How to use?
Just press.
Of course, it requires strength, but compared to the strength expended pulling up the bucket, it is much less convenient and more hygienic than a well..
“Oh wow, indeed. That's amazing. But if something breaks, shouldn't a professional official, not a villager, keep going to fix it??”
That's not all.
If managed incorrectly, this can also become the main cause of waterborne infectious diseases..
There was a case in London where people died from cholera due to mismanagement of this, and the name of the doctor who discovered it is John Snow..
Anyway, you will have to continue to be careful about this until one pump is used per household..
“There is an administration for that purpose..”
Jin Cheon-hee said so.
“As Baeklin Prefecture grew, more technicians were needed. Supplementing manpower will be the key. Also, water supply and sewage management will have to be reorganized, so that is also a concern now..”
Even if we can't install it in every house, shouldn't we install it in every district?.
And in order to prevent other water supplies from becoming contaminated when one pump becomes contaminated, the waterway must be built well from the beginning..
‘After all, it is a planned city, so preparation is possible..’
Fortunately, there are technicians who have been with us since Yeonmu City, so we can do the making and installation itself..
The problem is management personnel.…….
In the end, it was decided that not only the poor people would go over, but the seniors would also go over together..
Touching this means creating a new planned city, so it's a situation that can never be responded to with just a bunch of idiots..
This has to be done by seniors..
The little ones have to learn.
“Let's move on..”
It's a toilet seat.
If you eat it, you have to eat it..
Although the placenta is removed from the novel for the sake of the readers' mental health..
Since it is a living thing, it has to be cleaned when it is eaten, and in this day and age, toilets are often disposed of with two wooden boards..
There are many cases of urinating on the street..
Didn't Confucius say that no matter what he said to the guy who was pooping on the side of the road, he didn't say anything to the guy who was pooping in the middle of the road, saying, "I can't teach that bastard?".
An era where toilets are far away and public health is also far away..
So, of course, the smell of cow dung, horse dung, and human dung is always in the air..
In places where administrative maintenance is good, the streets are swept and cleaned, but in places that are not well maintained, what?…….
Anyway, in this day and age, it often happens that a child drowns while using the toilet..
If we collect old stories from the past, don't we come across stories of ghosts who fell into the bathroom and died?.
According to past WHO data, about 1 billion people around the world urinate in the open, and 2.4 billion do not have a toilet at home..
If that's the case in Hyundai, it won't be much different here..
‘Fortunately, we have enough manpower and capital to distribute it, so we can do it..’
The toilet principle itself is surprisingly simple..
It doesn't even need electricity.
However, since it is a restroom, each person must use it conscientiously and cleanly.…….
‘Hehehe! I am the wise man! this is power!’
I'll make sure you wash your hands when you leave the bathroom..
Anyone who puts something strange into a toilet hole will be caught and scolded.!
And the collected waste is reprocessed and systematically converted into fertilizer.!
The doctor's heart pounded at the thought of burning even a single parasite egg..
“First of all, place a couple of toilets in each section as a priority. The ultimate goal is to place it in every home..”
This method is used in developing countries..
In the case of the flush system, it is not used at this stage because the excrement cannot be recycled as fertilizer..
Now, we have dug deep into the toilet, spread clean concrete underneath, and treated the pipes to prevent maggots and flies from climbing up..
A huge reinforced box is placed inside to make it easy and convenient to transport human waste..
The ultimate goal is to have one in every home..
By the time we got there, public hygiene would have advanced much further..
‘And to sustain that, we have to keep running administrative staff..’
And the budget is.
“Actually, this is possible because we have money..”
Jin Cheon-hee opened his mouth..
“First of all, after installing it on a test basis, citizens who want to install it in their own homes will receive a tax reduction..”
This is possible because there is a budget..
For reference, surprisingly, it was Geumhyeolbang that started the installation first..
Toilets began to be installed like this in the large rooms belonging to Geumhyeolbang..
In the past, the toilets in guesthouses were not much different from private houses, but with the installation of toilet seats, toilets became much more hygienic..
Surprisingly, this is a water closet.
It is a surprisingly proper flushing method that uses the pressure difference in the siphon pipe and the principle of a lever..
However, it has the disadvantage of having to constantly replenish water manually..
The water supply system is not as well established as it is in modern times, so water has to be pumped and transported. That can't be helped..
How clean is it though?!
Force health through power! Let's achieve a hygienic society!
Of course, there is a disadvantage in that the accumulated sewage must be filtered through a four-stage septic tank rather than being sent directly to the river..
‘Well, in this day and age, people just throw urine and feces into the river..’
If we go that way, we will experience another outbreak of plague, so we decided to introduce the method used in Smoke City to ancient times..
Of course, there are some warriors who complain that they cannot adapt because of the sound made when flushing, but it seems that Sima Xuan and his Haomen organization are managing it well in the 'Sapa style'..
In any case, there is no risk of assassins hiding in a conventional poop bucket and stabbing them, right?.
That's an assassination method used quite often in the Gangho.?
‘Wow, they are installing it faster than I am bringing it in..’
The loud sound made when water is flushed is being corrected..
The new officials were amazed with their eyes shining..
“Oh, I want to install one at my house too..”
“With this, I think it would be less scary since I wouldn't be able to hear any creaking noises at night..”
“It's hygienic. I like it.”
Seniors have a different perspective.
“To do this, I need to find out how many feet of ground I need to dig, so I'll have to do all the maintenance.?”
“So, let's redo the district maintenance.?”
“We need to start with foundation construction, but have you already talked to the craftsmen??”
“Who will select the relevant budget??”
“Who can I ask to find out how often I should dispose of waste? Deputy Hyeonryeong.”
It was like that..
Seniors who have experienced all kinds of hardships first calculated the amount of work to come..
The paperwork coming soon was more urgent than pooping in a clean place..
Still, in a precipitous Confucian society, not being a yes man and asking about workload first is a great achievement in itself..
Baek Rin-hyeon is good at earning money, and it is a great advantage to be able to live without worrying about medical expenses in this world where you have to die if you get sick, let alone medical insurance..
However, the disadvantage is that, unlike other prefectures, civil engineering, architecture, and arithmetic must be taught at a low level..
“Do you mean to install a small-head manual water pump by digging all the way to the groundwater, or is it a method of connecting it after burying a water pipe??”
“Looking at the cross section, there is a filtration device, but the material supply is…….”
Jin Cheonhee said brightly..
“Yes, please ask a question.”
