Black Corporation: Joseon

Episode 1055 Aftereffects. (4)

However, there was something slightly overlooked about the scent. The Republic of Korea in the 20th century also showed considerable obsession with acquiring the title of ‘first’. No, it was a global trend until the 20th century. It was not until the 21st century that this national obsession was diluted to the point where it was barely noticeable. And some scholars cited the ‘end of the Cold War’ as the reason for this change.

However, even in the 21st century, there were people who were obsessed with being ‘first’. It was industrial. In order to beat competitors and dominate new markets, the industry was fanatically obsessed with the title of ‘first’.

This was because there were those who won the titles of ‘the first smartphone’ and ‘the first popular electric car’ and then almost monopolized the market.

Meanwhile, Jang Tae-su’s travels were reported to Hyeon.

“In some ways, we could just laugh it off, but why did you come up to Jim?”

Han Chi-hyeong stepped forward and responded to Hyeon’s point.

“This is because those who receive support and those who monitor whether the support is used properly are together.”

“Do not adjust your shoes in the cucumber field and do not adjust your hat strap under the plum tree.”

“That’s right.”

“That Tae-su Jang wouldn’t know that, right? Did he forget where the official who committed corruption was going?”

“Is that possible? I went down from the Board of Audit and Inspection to check and found that the person in charge had changed. After looking into it more closely, I found out that Tae-soo Jang voluntarily applied for a transfer to the department and it was granted.”

“Right.”

Hyeon nodded in response to Han Chi-hyeong and muttered to himself.

‘The recorder is scary.’

The Record Office, which had the notoriety of being a ‘letter hell descending on this world’, was an object of fear for officials.

“After listening to the Prime Minister’s story, it doesn’t seem like it will be a big problem, but as I said before, why was the report even sent to Jim?”

“This is because you shouldn’t set a precedent. Even though it ended well this time, it could be misused as a way to ask for wrong results or commit injustice. ‘The Emperor knows everything.’ “Only when the perception that ‘everything officials do is reported to the emperor’ is firmly established can we prevent injustice and corruption as much as possible.”

“That makes sense. Have that Governor Jang issued a warning in your name. And warn all the officials once again. They say that unless a war or rebellion breaks out, ‘first before second second’ is strictly prohibited. oh.”

“I follow your orders.”

It seemed like Jang Tae-su’s case had been resolved, but Hyun asked another question.

‘

“By the way. Seeing that Governor Jang stepped forward like that, do you think the power engine that the person in charge was researching was okay?”

“Looking at the record of Tae-su Jang’s words, the reason he intervened is mysterious.”

“It’s bizarre?”

Hyun, who heard the detailed story from Han Chi-hyeong, looked dumbfounded.

“No, for objects with complex structures such as power engines, accurate figures are essential, but the calculations are wrong? Can we still say that we are studying engines?”

“According to Tae-su Jang’s words, ‘The idea seemed plausible, and after digging a little deeper, it seemed even more plausible, but it seemed like the wrong calculation would ruin what was supposed to happen. That’s why I got involved.’”

“To sum it up, the idea is great, but the problem lies behind it?”

“That’s right.”

“Hmm…”

Hyeon was lost in thought at Han Chi-hyeong’s answer. Hyeon muttered to himself, tapping the armrest with his fingers.

‘Who comes to mind?’

The ministers who saw Hyeon like that all muttered similar things to themselves.ㅏ

‘Your Majesty seems to be thinking of someone too.’

Meanwhile, the artisans in Area 51 who heard the rumors about Jang Tae-su spoke openly.

“You are in the situation.”

“This is the situation.”

Every time, he brought a piece of paper on which he wrote or drew an unexpected idea and threw it to the craftsmen and said,

“Let’s draw the blueprint properly and complete it.”

“…..Is it possible?”

“Maybe? No, you guys can do it.”

When Taesangin Hyang said this, none of the craftsmen would back down.

‘Taesangwang trusts me like this!’

‘Until now, there has never been a craftsman who resigned because he couldn’t do it! I can’t be the first!’

“…..I will do my best.”

With this answer, the bloody and tearful challenge began. Meanwhile, Hyang, who heard the rumor at Sugang Palace, muttered with a humble expression.

“Why did my ears itch so much…”

* * *

Contrary to the original expectation that ‘it will take at least 5 years before you start to see results,’ the results came out a little over a year later. However, as soon as Hyang and Woo, who were in charge of the review, saw the results in question, they called the submitter and gave orders in a stern voice.

‘Let’s find Jang Yeong-sil’s tomb right now and apologize!”

What the submitter created and submitted was a power engine using a spring. The problem is that Jang Yeong-sil had already made the actual power device using a windup, and Gihakdang and the Engineering Academy had a replica of the actual power plant. It was said that there was even a

“So-in didn’t know!” The boy has never even stepped foot on the gates of Kihakdang and Engineering Academy!”

The submitter complained of injustice, but Hyang pushed him even more harshly.

“Are you saying it’s a coincidence?”

“That’s right!”

“You bastard! What are you looking at me for? Do you think I am a blind man with my eyes opened? Yes, the idea of using a mainspring could be a coincidence! But if you look at the blueprint you submitted and the blueprint drawn by Jang Yeong-sil, 80% of them are the same! In particular, the device that transfers the power generated by the mainspring to the desired location is exactly the same as if it were drawn face-to-face! How can this be a coincidence! I tried to be kind to him, but he turned out to be no good! Hello! “Call the soldiers right away!”

As Hyang called for the soldiers, the submitter knelt down on the floor and asked for forgiveness.

“Please forgive me!” The small man was blinded by greed and made a mistake! I lack talent, but I couldn’t overcome my greed, so I made the wrong move! I was greedy, but I did it out of foolishness, so please forgive me!”

“I committed it even though I knew it was wrong, so I can’t forgive it! Hello! Drag this person out and hand him over to the Provincial Police!”

“Yes!”

“Please save his life!”

The submitter cried out for his life at the top of his lungs, but was taken away by the hands of the soldiers and disappeared.

“I have done more than one thing with Jang Yeong-sil, but this is such a terrible thing. Doing something, no, doing something stupid. How can there be such idiots?”

Wu, who was next to Hyang’s words, shook his head and replied,

“If Tae Sang-tae wasn’t there, I could have been deceived.”

“Huh? Why?”

“Tae Sang-tae not only worked with Jang Yeong-sil but also saw all of his results, so he recognized it right away. But all Soson did was look at the actual objects on display in the lab and Area 51 and the blueprints hung on the wall!” After hearing

Wu’s words, Hyang asked back with an expression of understanding.

“So even if something is copied, you can’t immediately tell if it’s copied or not? ”

“Yes, it’s because there are very few people these days who were actually with old people like Jang Yeong-sil.”

“Ugh…”

Hyang muttered to himself as he licked his lips.

‘Suddenly I remember the title of the movie? I am Legend. ‘I guess I’ve lived a long time. Do I really think I can break the record of the King of Longevity?’

Hyang, who hurriedly cleared away the miscellaneous thoughts that suddenly came to mind, continued the conversation with Wu.

“I can’t guarantee that this kind of injustice will end this time, so I need to come up with a plan.” “

That’s right. First of all, I need to find and collect old records about power engines. So, we will have to check whether there is anything similar to the power engine submitted, and if so, we will have to consider whether it is a coincidence or a copy.” “It

will be a bit complicated, but that will be the norm. And I’ll have to add a new combination to the contest rules. ‘If it is discovered that a counterfeit method has been used, the entire subsidy will be refunded. And this recovery measure will be taken in the same way as a fine.’”

In response to Hyang’s words, Wu lightly shook his head and replied,

“There are probably a lot of people who can’t do this or that.”

* * *

Support for those who apply for the contest is free. It was not. Those who received the subsidy through illegal means or who gave up midway had to return the subsidy. Those who used illegal methods had to return the entire subsidy and be subject to legal punishment at the same time. On the other hand, those who gave up must first return the remaining subsidy. Then, the usage history was inspected.

If it was confirmed that the money spent was entirely for the contest, it ended here. However, if it was confirmed that it was diverted elsewhere, the entire amount had to be disbursed. Anything that did not fall under this ‘elsewhere’ It was all about ‘maintaining the livelihood of the dependent family.’

In the process of recovering the support money, if the recipient said that it was impossible to recover the support money because they had already used up all of it, the same method of executing a fine was used.

– The recipient was fined the same amount as the fine. Engage in forced labor for the period of time required.

-The standard for labor wages is the minimum wage set by law.

-Food, clothing, medical expenses, etc. incurred during labor are all deducted from labor wages.

-The amount remaining after the above deduction process. is deducted from the fine. If

you subtract from the minimum wage as above, at best, about half remains. However, in general, if you were to be forced to work because you could not pay the fine declared by the umpire, it was basic to work for at least 10 years.

So, you don’t have to do this or that. He was saying that there were many people who couldn’t do it. The best tactic for those who just wanted to collect the support money was plagiarism. However, as long as the scent, the ‘living history of Area 51’, was holding on, it became an impossible method.

* * *

Thanks to the scent, many people Even as they coughed up subsidies and gave up, there were those who continued to work hard to achieve the goal of winning a contest.

The most representative one was Da Vinci.

“I have been thinking about something for a long time!”

What Da Vinci was thinking of was a variation of the ‘Da Vinci Engine.’ He had been thinking about it for a long time. It was burned by putting a high-temperature, high-pressure mixture of air and oil into an engine with an internal combustion chamber. What was different from the traditional internal combustion engine known to Hyang was that there was no compression process.

“If this is the case, I will definitely win the contest!”

Da Vinci looked confident after reviewing the completed blueprint, but soon became anxious.

“But why am I so anxious? Why?”

Da Vinci thought for a moment and immediately thought of one person.

“Taesang situation!”

The scent that was always one step ahead of me was the source of my anxiety. Eventually, da Vinci began reviewing the blueprint again.

“This time, we must overcome the wall of the situation!”

Hyang heard Da Vinci’s story through several channels and smiled bitterly.

“Am I the final boss? If that’s the case, tell me to get over Jang Yeong-sil first!”
