Episode 721
Jin Cheon-hee and Sun Yang, who were guided to a luxurious and magnificent palace-like building located in the center of the city, briefly parted ways with their apprentice.
It was a bonus that I was guided inside and given a bathing service.
After washing, polishing, and refining the clothes, we were led to the banquet hall.
And there, I met my apprentice again, whom I had lost touch with earlier.
Instead of the armor from before, he wore clothes made of gorgeous silk, and his attire was definitely different from that of the Fire Empire.
“I’d like to greet you again. “I am the mayor of the office building.”
“As I already said outside, my name is General Sunyang.”
“You are also holding the position of mayor. I will also greet you again. This is Jin Cheon-hee, the governor of Baeklin County. He is also a member of the National Assembly.”
“ha ha ha. You already know. It is widely said that Prince Jin’s medical skills are second to none and that he is the best in the empire. “I heard that he is around Irip’s age, but as far as I know there is no such thing as a deity.”
‘oh? You know my story, right? ‘I guess information is fast because it’s a trading city?’
The banquet hall was large, but there were many people.
There were five entertainers playing music on one side, and two fans were stationed next to each seat.
‘It’s luxurious… After all, he’s a general and a mayor. Was it possible to hold concurrent positions? Or maybe it’s the Toho of this area.’
Jin Cheon-hee sits down thinking that.
Sun Yang also sat across from him, and the Doge sat at the head table next to Sun Yang and Jin Cheon-hee.
Jin Cheon-hee answered while sitting down.
“That’s too much praise. “It is thanks to my teacher who taught me well.”
How would I have reached this level if it were not for the correct guidance of my teacher Zhugelin?
It was a remark that would have lifted the corners of Zhuge Lin’s mouth to heaven if he had heard it.
“So, I am curious about what brought God to our kingdom as an envoy. Originally, other people would come and go…”
“I guess you’re curious as to why someone from the ceremonial department didn’t come.”
Sunyang opened her mouth.
Despite her heavy bass, the apprentice smiled and nodded.
He was a soldier during the day, but now he seems like a solid merchant.
‘He’s a talented person…’
He said with a smile while Jin Cheon-hee was evaluating him.
“That’s right. “Isn’t the empire’s diplomacy originally under the jurisdiction of the Yebu?”
He used Gongdae for Jin Cheonhui and Haoche for General Sunyang. This means that Jin Cheon-hee is regarded more highly.
Why on earth do you give Jin Cheon-hee higher praise?
The position of General Pyeon was not an easy position.
In the empire, the person who could be called the commander of all people was General Pyeon, which meant that he had the authority to lead 10,000 soldiers and conduct independent operations.
And yet you praise Jin Cheon-hee more highly?
Do you know something?
Sunyang thought this to herself and opened her mouth again.
“This matter is due to a special order from His Majesty the Emperor. “It’s to help you return home.”
“Help… I wonder what we have to give if we receive help we never asked for.”
‘aha. This person is not just Toho, is he? He’s a person who deals with the empire in this area. This is the gatekeeper of the gate that protects Damjin from the empire, right? ‘It’s great.’
Before mastering Hyeonwonjeondanshingong.
Completed the heart and radish season benevolence.
Afterwards, he gained the foresight of life and death as a transcendental mind, and after mastering the Xuanyuan Zhendan Divine Technique and finally reaching the level reached by his teacher, he obtained another transcendental mind and world management.
In Jin Cheon-hee’s opinion, this Doge was a deeply loyal person who truly cared about the kingdom.
So I was willing.
If there were more righteous people like this, the world would be a brighter place.
There will be fewer cases like Tianyu, who lost an eye to congenital syphilis and eventually died, or Sima Hyun, who had to strangle his younger brother with his own hands because of poverty to relieve his suffering.
Eventually, Geumgang opened his mouth.
“Can you tell me what brought you to this kingdom?”
“We want to do trade. “I came here to import soda… no, natron.”
Everyone looked surprised at those words.
“Are you saying that a national envoy was moved like this because there was business at the natron mine? Moreover, the greatest god of the Fire Empire, Byeok-an God, is coming in person.”
‘You know me?’
In the middle of nowhere, this place is out of the world. Isn’t it one of the world’s most distant worlds?
‘Is it because it’s a trading city?’
It was strange, but fame is credit.
In this world where it is natural to go back to school ties and blood ties, fame gives you the strength to break through it.
You should use everything that is available to you.
“I’m just grateful that you recognize me. “I came because I could make useful medicine using natron.”
“Can you guess what that is?”
“Toothpaste and, as you know, a digestive aid.”
“Ah, well… there is something the therapists made. Thanks to this, the people of our Damjin Kingdom live longer than those of other kingdoms.”
Washing your hands well also increases your lifespan, but having strong teeth can also extend your lifespan.
In a world like this, if you can’t eat because your teeth are bad, you’ll just die.
“But is there really a need for our damjin to help the people of the empire become stronger?”
That too. From Damjin’s point of view, he will not move even a penny if it does not make a profit.
“What if I give you money?”
“I know that the currency of the Hua Empire is widely used, but it is more convenient for us to receive it in silver. “We are also trading with the Western Continent.”
In my head, selling to alchemists in the West Continent and trading with the empire.
It was clear that they were tapping the abacus to see which side would have the advantage.
‘If I do this wrong, I’ll get ripped off.’
This will happen if you exchange it purely with money.
Jin Cheon-hee opened a card.
It was a hand prepared by Gold & Silver.
“You are indeed the master of a trading city. Indeed, it is so. Because I came in person to negotiate those negotiations. “What would it be like if we could calm the rinderpest?”
That moment.
thud!
Geumgang opened his eyes and straightened his back.
“Am I correct in understanding the Chinese language? “It’s possible to appease the divine punishment?!”
‘As expected, the alchemists in the West don’t seem to know how.’
In that case, either Jin Cheon-hee’s scientific power can help solve the problem, or if you’re unlucky, it could be a real curse.
Jin Cheon-hee prayed for scientific victory.
‘Damn non-science fiction world, please let’s go scientific!’
This is a prayer I have prayed tens of thousands of times as Representative Kang Ho.
“It is difficult to say for sure. But I think it’s worth a try.”
Sunyang spoke immediately after hearing Jin Cheonhee’s words.
“Prime Minister Jin, out of faith, even made smallpox disappear.”
“ah! I’ve heard of it. It is said that the number of smallpox patients in the empire is decreasing significantly, and even if an epidemic breaks out, if it is smallpox, it quickly begins to subside. “That was real!”
Geumgang’s expression changed.
“So, what are you doing with rinderpest in the office building?”
“All outside merchants are waiting outside the city and are allowed to come in after ablution.”
Fortunately, there is an enormous lake in the center of the building, so there is plenty of water.
It was a traditional quarantine method.
“That alone is not enough. If possible, it would be good if we could have them come in with a change of clothes. Especially shoes.”
That’s what rinderpest is like.
It is primarily transmitted through the saliva and feces of infected cows, but can also be transmitted through contaminated clothing or shoes.
‘Sometimes they move here through wild animals.’
No matter how much people try to stop it, it is bound to spread to some extent.
Even so, quarantine cannot be neglected.
‘According to Korea’s old records, Korean beef had an almost 100% mortality rate… What about here?’
In Africa, it’s a whopping 90%.
I had an ominous feeling that this side would not be much different if the statistics were calculated.
“So… this Geumgang receives great favor from God.”
Sungyang thought while looking at it.
‘As expected, Geumgang’s attitude changed immediately.’
He transformed from a businessman to a politician.
As soon as I heard there was a possibility of treatment, I felt disgusted seeing them treat me with contempt, but I was glad that it was resolved at least this way.
‘If they can get rid of the rinderpest, they can do anything. The Hua Empire owes a lot to Xin.’
I thought I knew why the Emperor had sent five hundred of the most elite cavalry along with him.

Night has come.
Jin Cheon-hee was sleeping in a luxurious guest room.
I was curled up in the blanket and sleeping when I suddenly opened my eyes due to a strange feeling.
“hmm?”
Surprisingly, Jin Cheonhee’s eyes went to the window without hesitation.
After gaining enlightenment, my senses became surprisingly sensitive.
“who are you?”
“I didn’t expect you to notice this right away.”
Hwanggu was sleeping.
Jin Cheon-hee asked again.
“…who are you.”
Only then does Hwanggu suddenly open his eyes. Jin Cheon-hee stroked Hwang-gu’s forehead to calm him down.
Growling –
Hwanggu glares at his enemy with the intention of biting him at any moment.
“nice to see you. “Seed of antipathy.”
Seeds of Banseon.
There are only two groups that call him that. One is bad and one is ambiguous.
Thinking about which one it would be, Jin Cheon-hee lightly pulled the ice crystal sword into the air.
Tak-
“Oh no, I am Baekcheongun (白天君). He is the one who sits at the forefront of the Ten Heavenly Armed Forces.”
At that moment, Jin Cheon-hee’s sword cuts through the air.
Suck!
The sword energy that was quickly drawn out merged with the negative energy of the ice crystal sword to become Han Ice Sword and tried to cut the opponent.
The power to freeze while cutting.
however.
That powerful sword energy disappeared like a mirage in the air.
‘It’s not martial arts. Something else… some kind of witchcraft? Or…’
“Oh my. My brother-in-law and I have the same impatient personality. “You’re saying that if you’re this hot-tempered, you won’t be able to enjoy the joys of life?”
Pure white person.
A person with a soft voice that makes it difficult to tell whether it is male or female.
Not only was his strange appearance a concern, but the words he mentioned as sworn brothers also bothered me.
“Brother-in-law?”
OK.
He answers kindly.
“This is Yeo Ha-ryun, your first half-brother. A great being who will one day become the Heavenly Demon and immortalize the world. Huhuhuhu. “It’s still a young flame.”
Jin Cheonhee thought.
It seems like the characteristic of martial arts novel villains is that they talk a lot.
Thank you so much.
‘He knows quite a bit about Ha-ryun and even uses strange tricks? Although he is said to be one of the Ten Thousand Bloods, he does not seem to be of a lower rank.’
Jin Cheon-hee, who had thought that far in her mind, said while soothing Hwang-gu.
“It seems you are not an ordinary executive.”
“Are you looking into it? this this. I’m so happy! I heard that you met Jang Cheon… that’s right. That’s right. Like Jang Cheon-gun, I have been assisting Hyeol-seon for a long time. “You could call them elders.”
Elder (元老).
It refers to a person who has worked in one field for a very long time and has a lot of merit and a high position.
People are not considered elders just because they are older.
“Do you get a pension or something when you become a senior?”
Jin Cheon-hee said something uncivilized. And at the same time, it increases internal strength.
fast!
Wooooow!
The air trembles. And Jin Cheon-hee’s eyes glowed bright blue and moved at incredible speed.
Taeeuldanseongeombeop!
The swordsman of Shingungjeolhak, who had been with Jin Cheonhee for a long time, delivered ten sword strikes in one breath.
