Episode 621
The meeting goes into fundamental issues.
The long-awaited water supply construction.
Basically, the water supply used in Yeonmu City is Roman style.
I enjoyed watching related documentaries in the past and looked up papers, so I was able to apply it well.
Rome’s water supply system first began by drawing abundant water.
How do you pull it in?
Naturally, we started by creating a large reservoir in a high location.
From there, water is brought to the city center using the drop, and in the city center, the drop is also used to supply water to each household.
However, this cannot be done because it is realistically difficult to ensure that water is supplied to each household individually.
because.
Once the water is brought to the city center.
Artificial springs were created in certain parts of the city center and water pumps were installed there.
Make it easy for citizens to take water.
In the case of artificial springs, caution is required because the number must be sufficiently large for citizens to easily use them.
‘Getting well water from a farm is difficult, but getting water from a city is even more difficult.’
This is why there are merchants selling water in Hangzhou.
Therefore, if we do just this much, it will be very easy for city residents to obtain water.
Soon it becomes connected to hygiene.
Of course, in order to prevent people from getting sick from water-borne diseases like in London, everything from the opening of the water supply to the structure of the pump must be calculated.
“Then public baths will also be possible.”
Of course, it cannot be done the Roman way.
If Roman public baths are not managed properly, they can become a breeding ground for infectious diseases.
Change the design to a modern one.
It is also important to have people using the bathtub wash before entering the bathtub.
So…
“The public bathhouse will be managed by an official designated by Baekrin County.”
“…You’re using an official who receives a bonus for that?”
It was like that.
Everyone looked at Jin Cheonhee as if they were looking at a crazy person.
‘Does it make sense to send a literate official to do something as menial as taking a bath?’
Jin Cheon-hee said.
“No, there is something more important than this. And we will use a martial artist who has learned martial arts.”
“…Are you even saying that the martial arts people are only used for bathing?”
What does it mean to have good power? In times like this, can’t I use some?
However, even senior officials who had experienced many hardships were looking at him like he was truly crazy.
* * *
“Oh, it’s refreshing~”
“Mr. Wang. “What’s so cool about this hot water?”
“ah. I heard that Baekryonguiseon always says that it feels refreshing every time he goes into the bathtub. After listening to this, does it feel a bit cool? “I think so.”
“Hehe… You mean the White Dragon Uiseon said that? So I think it’s kind of cool.”
Mr. Wang and his colleague Mr. Geum entered the bathtub and chatted.
Some time has passed since Jin Cheon-hee began waterworks construction, began manufacturing and supplying pumps and toilet seats, and operated a public bathhouse.
‘At first, what kind of fuss is this? I’m already living well, so why change again?’ They were the people I thought about, but now everyone is praising Jin Cheon-hee.
This bathhouse is especially popular.
It was impossible for the common people of this era to wash as often as modern people.
It wasn’t because I hated bathing or because I was uncivilized.
This is because simply obtaining water involves labor.
It is a geographically blessed place, so unless you have to walk to a river or valley to wash, most people spend half a day just stocking up on drinking water.
And even if I go to take a bath, I’m already covered in sweat and dust on the way back.
Even in an area with abundant water, making it into hot water requires labor.
The rich and the powerful live well.
Even when it comes to bathing, civilians have to set aside a day in warm weather and do it whenever they want.
Therefore, the luxury of immersing oneself in a hot bath like this could be considered a luxury and pleasure in the Gangho world.
however.
Now anyone can do it in Baeklin County.
If you pay for a meal at the guesthouse, you can take a bath.
“I told you to wash it and then go in. “Do you ever want to spill the soup in the shared bath?”
Let Kang Ho-in, who was shirtless, say something sharp.
Yang Min, who was not going to go in without showering, ended up washing himself thoroughly with soap.
People said this when they saw it.
“And looking at it, I don’t know why they entrusted the management of the bathroom to Kang Ho-in. “I heard the monthly salary is also high.”
“Can’t we just assign an official…?”
“Why did you assign officials before that…”
Jin Cheon-hee was secretly enjoying the taste of power.
It was so secret that no one in Baek Lin-hyeon knew about it.
Everyone frowned like that, but anyway, the bathroom was being used in an orderly manner.
“But no one urinates in the bathtub.”
“…yeah…that’s right.”
In this way, order in public bathhouses is maintained.
Baekryong Uiseon enjoyed the taste of power like a detective.
“still. “It’s really good…”
Mr. Wang closed his eyes in the hot bath.
I feel like my fatigue is melting away and the hardships of the day are disappearing.
In fact, he said so.
This is because a phrase said to have been written by Baekryong Uiseon himself is stuck on the door in the bathhouse locker room.
When I asked people who knew something about the alphabet, they said it was written like this.
[Efficacy and effect of hot water]
Soaking in hot water helps blood circulation, relieves tense muscles and fatigue, and brings stability to the mind and body. It is natural for the body to get sick when the circulation of energy and blood is blocked, so you can protect your health through decoction.
There are many other technical terms, but people came to know them after reading these words.
Taking a bath makes you healthier!
If it’s dirty, you’ll get sick easily!
So what is this but paradise?
Mr. Wang closed his eyes, thinking that he had made a good decision to come to Baeklin County.
I wanted to soak in this hot bath a little longer.
* * *
I could feel the weather getting warmer day by day.
dawn.
Even before the sun rises, Jin Cheon-hee wakes up and washes herself lightly.
The advantage of Baekrin Uigak, located in a hot spring area, is that each annex has a bathhouse for soaking.
In particular, since it is an incinerator, there is a private bath without having to go to the large public bath.
Sigh!
The wet, flowing hair was literally like a waterfall.
“Oh, I want to cut it. Is this washing your hair? “Doing laundry.”
Of course, in the Confucian world, even though they are the parents who receive physical support.
It’s not like we’re paying attention to every detail.
Trim what needs to be refined.
In that sense, this heavy, long hair is crazy annoying.
For Professor Jin, who was accustomed to having short hair in Korea, these huge waves of hair are increasingly becoming a burden.
“okay. “Think of it as laundry.”
When applying soap, rub the hair like a rag, then rinse and wring out the hair as if it were a rag.
“Aaaah! Now I know why people make whips out of hair! “Once I put it all together, I can’t get enough of it!”
Even since it is unmanned, the ends of the hair do not split.
Each strand is thick and extremely healthy. That means it’s incredibly heavy.
Jin Cheon-hee turned her neck and wrapped her long hair as if she were twirling her top.
I went out, remembering that it took longer to wash my hair than to wash my body.
Then, quickly dry your body with a towel and dry your hair again.
This long hair is so disgusting that even though it has this regenerative power, if it is dried incorrectly, it causes acne on the scalp.
‘Does this make sense? Why doesn’t Book prevent acne? Or is the acne on my scalp that bad?’
If you think about it the other way around, most people in this era don’t wash their hair every day.
The only people who can do that are Sega people who have an attendant to wash their hair, or a martial artist who has the stamina to do so.
It is common for martial people to have their hair cut off during fights, so they say, ‘I am a Taoist!’ ‘O primordial heavenly lord!’ And cut it.
‘I am a demonic cult! There are no parents under the Heavenly Demon!’ And cut it appropriately.
Shaolin goes without saying. It’s tight there.
But other than that, I usually raise it. And suffer like this.
‘okay. ‘Maybe I’m just thinking from a modern perspective.’
People in this world think differently from modern people.
To begin with, there is no navigation or phone clock, so no one checks the time and there are no alarm or schedule functions.
I promised in the morning that it wouldn’t be Man Mandi for nothing, but there are times when people show up in the afternoon.
Because there are many things that are leisurely put off until tomorrow.
In that sense, isn’t this long hair in a similar vein?
Jin Cheon-hee grumbled, dried her hair, and roughly tied it up.
Grumble-
“What is it? “Are you awake already?”
“Director Yoo doesn’t even show up before opening. “What is this, the master bedroom of my house?”
Yoo Ho threw clothes at Jin Cheon-hee.
“It’s a new military uniform.”
“Oh, it smells nice.”
“Why is your hair like that?”
“I’m going to practice all day today. “I roughly tied up some annoying things.”
Yuho looked at that and sighed.
I posted that I was tying it up with my own hands, but no matter how I looked at it, it was just a beggarly mess.
I’m laughing and saying that I feel more comfortable now.
“Give it to me.”
Then he pulled Jin Cheonhee’s hair.
“Apod!”
“Just shut up.”
Grumbling, he braided Jin Cheonhee’s hair and tied it up. Then, instead of the hair ornament she often wore, she fixed it with a hairpin.
Jin Cheon-hee looked in the mirror and gave a thumbs up.
“Wow, you’re really good with your hands.”
“I don’t think you came down to cook because it was a training day. Are you going to eat breakfast?”
“Could it be simply egg white jjim (a type of steamed egg)? “Please put some chicken and ginkgo nuts in here.”
“That’s annoying.”
After saying that, Yuho went out carrying the laundry that Jin Cheonhee had given him.
Grrrr-bang!
“I’ve never had one carefully closed. “The door will burst.”
Jin Cheon-hee grumbled and stretched.
The new military uniform fit my body well.
Jin Cheon-hee lightly punched the air.
The sound is heard only after the water exit is finished.
phut!
The sound of hitting the air.
Even the regime that was only lightly criticized contained tremendous ignorance, and the young man playfully repeated the recommendation a few more times.
“Do you like the uniform? “It’s light and sturdy.”
I had a good feeling.
* * *
Jin Cheon-hee went down to practice immediately after eating breakfast.
The training ground in the middle of the bamboo forest is a place where outsiders cannot reach because it is guarded.
Here, Jin Cheon-hee sat cross-legged and chanted deeply.
The sound of bamboo felt good.
A good season for training.
‘I learn the Immortal Godkong, Cheonryonggong, and part of the Yeokgeunsesugyeong with the Hyeonwonjeondanshinkong.’
By itself, Hyunwonjeondanshingung simply accelerates thinking and expands cognition, but it shows the highest efficiency when learned with other martial arts.
The process of quickly understanding the essence of martial arts and applying it to the mind.
In it, Jin Cheon-hee realized the essence of the Immortal God Gong and the Heavenly Dragon Gong.
