Black Corporation: Joseon

Episode 1047: The Age of War – The Age of Copycat. (6)

The number of blueprints produced before 6 types of blueprints were selected by Hyang and Wan was several times that number. However, after seeing the designs, Hyang evaluated them as follows.

“It’s a comprehensive gift set of creative ideas, imagination, fantasy, and delusion.”

In my previous life, I had seen everything from models of airplanes made by the Wright brothers to actual airplanes, so the judging process was conducted calmly.

“But this is kind of interesting…”

The designs posted from Areas 51 and 52 showed a big difference. While many of Area 51’s designs fell somewhere between fantasy and delusion, Area 52’s designs had relatively sound ideas.

“It’s relative, it’s relative….”

While adding this evaluation, Hyang was looking into his own reasons and soon found the most plausible reason.

“Is it because of Wan?”

Wan was a person who was obsessed with flying from a young age. And Wan succeeded in flight by creating a flying machine similar to a combination of a Do-335 and a biplane. Because there was such a plan, most of Area 52’s designs ‘appeared’ to be sound.

No, it just seemed that way.

“I don’t go where others have already taken!”

“Originality is the most important!”

Area 52 was also filled with people who thought this way. In any case, Hyang selected six types of designs and meticulously wrote down the reasons for the designs that were rejected.

“I don’t know everything. Surprisingly, I may have missed some things. Even in the 21st century, ingenious airplanes have been released.”

However, among those six designs, there was one that remained for other reasons.

“Wan has to see this too!”

The blueprint in question belonged to da Vinci.

Because the success or failure of the mission he had risked his life on depended on it, he returned from Wando Shinji to his headquarters just in time.

“Thank you for your hard work coming to the elders.”

“I must be going through a lot of trouble. The emperor is going through a lot of trouble.”

“That’s too much praise.”

After talking with Hyeon, Wan continued his conversation with Hyang.

“I am truly relieved to see that you have made amends.”

“You’ve aged a lot.”

“I have already passed the age of 70, so there is nothing I can do about it.”

The young officials nearby muttered to themselves as they watched the father and son, who were over 90 and 70 years old, conversing with a straight face.

‘It is said that the Duke of Jeonpyeong and the Duke of Anpyeong are treated like children if they live in front of the Great Emperor…’

‘Could it be true that there is a secret to longevity that is only passed down to the imperial family?’

‘Could it be true that the rumor that the messenger sent by Sangje got tired of it and ran away?’

Before we knew it, the reigns of Inga Hyang and Wan had become known only through records. The young officials who saw the two people they had only heard about in real life lost their sense of reality.

“Anyway, I’m very curious about the results of this review. I think it’s the last result I’ll get from Shinji.”

“Now that I think about it, there won’t be much time left until the emperor ascends to the throne.”

“Maybe that’s why the number of private envoys asking us to expand the shipyard in Shinji has increased.”

“Hahaha! That’s fun!”

* * *

After unpacking his luggage at Changdeokgung Palace, Wan headed straight to Suganggung Palace as soon as he was relieved from his travels. This was because the final task was to select the most promising design among the six types of designs that had already been filtered out.

“I’ve thought about it, but I can’t properly judge the feasibility with just a blueprint. I think we need to make at least one physical object and verify it.”

“Oh! I see! I see! I made a mistake! I think that’s the norm! Thanks for pointing it out!”

If you look at the content of the conversation, it was a very healthy conversation. But looking at the rich man’s expression, it was definitely not the case. Therefore, the surrounding eunuchs and officers who were listening to the father and son’s conversation all muttered the same thing to themselves.

‘Then that’s right. ‘These are not people who will just pass by without making the real thing.’

“Then let’s go ask the emperor!”

“That’s right!”

“Anyway, if we get permission from the emperor, what would you like us to make first?”

“Of course it’s da Vinci’s! Isn’t it?”

“Hahaha! With all my heart!”

And Hyun, who heard Hyang and Wan’s words, smiled bitterly.

‘You seem to be working very well together.’

It was Hyeon who immediately realized what the two people were up to. However, I couldn’t reject it.

‘But the reason itself is reasonable. And if you set a precedent like this, it will be easier for me later.’

Hyeon was already half conscious of Shinji. But the procedures had to be followed. Hyeon asked Prime Minister Chi Hyeong among the ministers present.

“What does the Prime Minister think?”

In response to Hyeon’s question, Han Chi-hyeong avoided a direct answer and grumbled inwardly.

‘no! There is something else to ask! Taesang and Sanghang asked for it together, so what can I say? ‘Do you think I have an iron suit around my neck?’

Han Chi-hyeong, who was pouring out all kinds of complaints inside, immediately straightened his expression and told Hyun.

“I tell you that the reason is not justifiable, but the Lord Yunheo has granted it.”

“That’s right. Anyone who has a different opinion, speak up now.”

“……..”

“Then I will accept the request. The ministers should actively help in this matter.”

“I follow your orders.”

With the permission from the county, Hyang and Wan began work in earnest. Hyang and Wan were also enthusiastic, but the most enthusiastic was the designer, Da Vinci.

“My designs are actually made! You can’t do anything wasted!”

Da Vinci led the work, forgetting about erosion. The day the results came out. Hyang, Wan-hyeon, and officials from large and small gatherings gathered at the airfield built on the riverside near Area 51.

“I was surprised when I saw the blueprint, but I was even more surprised when I saw it in person.”

“I agree.”

Hyang agreed with Wan’s words and muttered to himself.

‘It’s surprising.’

When Hyang first saw Da Vinci’s blueprint, he muttered this.

“What is this terrible hybrid… an X-wing mixed with a TIE fighter…”

The design that Da Vinci came up with was not only original, but even bizarre. First of all, the shape of the fuselage and the location of the propeller were unique. At the center of the hollow, cylindrical fuselage was a propulsion engine using a new type of smoke engine. A thruster with two pinwheels in front and back, like the flying machine made by Wan in Shinji, was located in the center of the fuselage, and the cockpit was located in the upper part of the fuselage. Additionally, four wings were attached to the fuselage in an

The scent was described as a ‘combination of

“Hoo? It looks really interesting.”

Hyang was remarked upon by Hyeon, who had seen Da Vinci’s prototype, without realizing it.

“More funny than funny…”

Hyang, who had suppressed the words that were about to come out without realizing it, ordered Da Vinci.

“Please explain why the designer designed it this way.”

“yes.”

After receiving the order, Da Vinci cleared his throat for a moment and immediately began explaining.

“Making wind with a pinwheel to raise the fuselage is very similar to other flying machines. However, the reason it is made like that inside the fuselage is because of the characteristics of the wind.”

“Characteristics of the wind?”

“Yes, Your Majesty, have you ever seen the movement of waves when a ship moves? If you look closely at the ripples created by the pinwheel pushing the ship, you can see that the ripples spread out in a fan shape. This is the same with the wind in the sky. “The further away you go, the wider it spreads. I thought this was a waste, so I made the fuselage into a tube shape and installed a thruster in the center. This is to use the wind generated by the wind vanes attached to the front and middle of the tube with as little loss as possible.”

“Hoo~. That seems plausible.”

Hyeon, who was nodding his head at Da Vinci’s explanation, asked a question.

“Then why are those wings mounted diagonally and why are they smaller than other wings?”

“In order for the blade to change direction, the fuselage must be tilted left and right. However, whenever it is tilted like that, the size of the wing becomes an obstacle and a lot of force is used. However, if the size of the wing is reduced like that and mounted at an It can be adjusted easily.”

“Oh, I see.”

Everyone present nodded at Da Vinci’s explanation. This was also the case with incense.

‘Among the latest submarines of the 21st century, there were some that were equipped with an X-type rudder for similar reasons. But…’

Hyang soon pointed out the problem to Da Vinci.

“The reason the wings of a flying machine are big is to make it easier to float. The bigger the wings, the more power it has to float. If you look at it that way, the size of those wings is too small no matter how you look at it.”

Da Vinci responded immediately to Hyang’s point.

“It’s not just the wings that create the lift force in my flying frame. Most of the lift power comes from that fuselage.”

“In the fuselage?”

“It would be convenient to think of it as a round wing attached to another flying frame and then connected.”

“Aha~”

“I see!”

Everyone in attendance nodded with admiration at Da Vinci’s explanation.

‘Is it some kind of closed wing? That’s interesting. ‘

Hyang, who looked intrigued by da Vinci’s idea, soon moved on.

“I want to look at the actual inside in more detail.”

“I’ll explain.”

Hyang, Wan-hyeon, and the other attendees followed behind da Vinci and created a prototype. They looked at all sorts of things. The more they looked at the prototype, the more Hyang and Wan’s expressions darkened. The two people who sat back slightly had a quiet conversation.

“I already guessed it when I looked at the blueprint, but it’s too complicated.”

“It will be hard to make it, too. We will have a hard time during maintenance.”

“That’s true, but the most important question is whether it can really float properly and get off safely.”

Wan, who had been examining Da Vinci’s blade once again at Hyang’s point, nodded silently. Hyang had a serious expression on his face. I looked at Da Vinci’s flying machine.

‘Da Vinci may have made the calculation, but really? Can a flying machine body made only of wood and fabric with a steel frame thinner than the infamous Zero Sen’s idiot frame be able to withstand it?’

“Then let’s do a test flight now. Who will control that blade?”

In response to Hyun’s question, the craftsman on one side came forward and bowed to Hyeon.

“Yes, I hope you succeed. But the most important thing is your life, so never take unreasonable risks. This is my order.”

“I will follow your orders! Hwang-eun is devastated!”

Thanks to Hyun’s encouragement, the craftsman, who had gained courage, climbed aboard Saradhi and entered the cockpit located at the top of the fuselage.

“Ready!”

The craftsman sitting in the cockpit shouted, and one of the craftsmen waiting on the ground came to the side of the fuselage. I opened the door and went inside, then opened the firebox of the external combustion engine and lit it.

Ta-da-da-da-da!

Craftsmen were working diligently in the cockpit and outside. Soon, the unique noise of the new external combustion engine began to rise everywhere.

“Loosen the rope!”

Upon confirming that the engine’s output had reached its maximum, the craftsmen responded to the order of the master craftsman and untied the knot on the rope that held the blade together.
