Chapter 979:
There are many different sects in Zhejiang Province. This was an area where neither the political faction nor the communist faction was dominant. Recently, the Cloud Dragon Symbols of the Botamun and Gongsun families have entered and are expanding their power.
Nevertheless, it was a very chaotic area in terms of the power of the powerful martial arts group.
And the craziest person in the world came into those clans.
“I am Sanseokgeum, the head of the Cheoryeoksan family. “Why did you come to this gate, Lord Byeok-an?”
Iron power mountain family.
The family with the surname San (珊) is a fairly powerful family in Zhejiang Province.
The family’s original home is located in a port city on a fairly large river called Buyang, which can be reached by taking the river inland from Hangzhou.
It was a family with considerable power, and as its name suggests, it was also a place where Oegongjeolhak was preserved as a family festival.
Originally, it is said that our ancestors learned external arts at Shaolin Temple a long time ago.
Nowadays, it doesn’t have the feel of Shaolin Temple, perhaps because of the improvements made to it.
Although they are such an iron power mountain, they recently acquired the Infinite Lotus Flower Beam Heart Ball and combined it with their martial arts, and they were happy that its power had increased significantly.
‘What on earth is happening to the person who looks pretty but is rumored to be crazy at home?’
The head of such an iron power family.
Mountain, stone, and gold.
He tensed inwardly and looked at Qin Tianxi.
Next to him stood a beautiful, tall, white-haired man, and no matter how you looked at him, he looked like the bloodthirsty Zegalin.
But does that make sense?
Although he is a little known in Zhejiang Province, his family is not that great.
Of course, it’s not even comparable to Paldae Sega.
The head of the family has now reached the pinnacle of excellence.
There’s no way Zhugelin would join such a small or medium-sized family!
Since Sanseokgeum was quite old, he had actually heard rumors about Hyeolrin Gwangsal.
‘Decades ago, so-and-so’s clan was left in nothing but ashes. There is a story that young Hyeolrin Gwangsal started the fire at that time.’
‘The people from the village next door were also wiped out by poison in the past! ‘Isn’t it strange that this is also the clan that Zhuge Ce took part in the blood feud?’
‘There is a rumor that in the past, Hyeolrin Gwangsal caused a rift between three sects and committed a murder.’
All of them are just hideous things.
Finally, Jin Cheon-hee spoke.
“This is my teacher, Baekrin Uiseon.”
‘Was it true?!’
I did it just in case, but when the nail got stuck, I felt like my heart was going to drop.
‘Why aren’t you that old? No matter how much I look, I can’t see anything more than Irip.’
In terms of age, isn’t he about the same age as you?
Jin Cheon-hee continued.
“Could you please mobilize military personnel from Cheolryeok Mountain?”
“…You mean unmanned?”
As I was standing in front of Hyeolrin Gwangsal, I unconsciously became polite in my tone of voice.
Jin Cheon-hee continued.
“It’s no big deal. “Just do a little work and dream of a bright future.”
“Could you please speak a little easier?”
“So, civil engineering is needed to relieve the drought. “The goal is to complete civil engineering more quickly thanks to Kang Ho-in’s martial arts skills.”
‘…Isn’t this crazy?’
I was dumbfounded and was about to say something when Baek Rin Uiseon’s smile caught my eye.
Sanseokgeum became polite again.
Humble thoughts, good thoughts, bright thoughts.
The three times I endured in front of Hyeolrin Gwangsal are engraved in my head.
“Hmm… I understand what you mean about civil engineering, but it’s too sudden.”
It was natural for me to put my hands together without realizing it.
Then Zegalin spoke.
“Instead, we would like to provide elixirs as a stipend.”
‘They give you an elixir for doing civil engineering?!’
Meanwhile, the proposal he presented clearly stated how much elixir he would pay for each performance.
The elixir of Baeklin’s Pavilion!
Even if the price is half of the price of the shipper, it is quite difficult to buy it.
First of all, there is a waiting time and half the price is actually difficult for small and medium-sized families to afford.
furthermore.
Baekrin Uigak is very evil.
‘They are selling elixirs for ordinary people and elixirs for powerful people separately!’
[Elixir for the general public.]
It is clearly made from the same ingredients, but it is only good for your health. The effect of improving internal strength is infinitely weak.
[Elixir for powerful people.]
It is clearly the same material, but the effect of improving internal strength is significant. But the price is eye-poppingly expensive.
‘There’s no way an ordinary person could consume an elixir meant for strong people.’
However, when Kang Ho-in is sick or weak, he needs elixirs for health, so it is a ploy to sell it twice!
In particular, this elixir for powerful people is expensive and sold out when sold out, making people who are looking for it go crazy.
‘To pay that elixir for powerful people in return… This is quite a condition…?’
In civil engineering, isn’t moving rocks and compacting the ground menial tasks?
I didn’t learn martial arts to do something like that.
Although my pride is hurt.
‘If you just overcome your pride and do hard work, the elixir will come to you?’
I don’t know if this is right, but…
Zhugelin smiled and said at that time.
“If you don’t like it, go to the Hyeondo Danga next door…”
I researched this in advance.
‘You vicious Zhuge bastards!’
Current unit price.
It is a family of the Dan clan located in the next town.
It can be said that we have a long-standing rivalry with Cheolryuksanga that goes back dozens of generations.
Since they are rivals, their relationship is not that good.
Of course, it’s not to the point where they grab each other by the collar and fight to the death. Whenever the other person is doing well, it becomes a relationship where both sides feel sick to their stomachs.
‘The elixir will be provided there!?’
At that moment, as if he had been waiting, Zhugelin turned and said to his disciple, ‘We don’t have time, so let’s move.’
It became urgent.
“Ooh ooh we’ll do it!”
“hmm?”
“We will do it!”
“Ah, but I’ll give you half of the conditions you first proposed, is that okay?”
“why…?”
Zegalin said.
“It’s because you took up too much of our time. If you don’t like it… I’ll see you next time. Let’s go. Hee-ya.”
“I’ll take the bar! “I will take it!”
“Then half and half?”
If you refuse again this time, are you going to call me ‘Half of Half of Half’, you poisonous snake!
“I said I would!”
This time I answered without hesitation.
Zegalin’s eyes softly curved.
“great. “Let’s do this together.”
While saying that, what I took out from my pocket was a performance sheet with exactly half of the price written on it.
Even that was written in advance knowing it would happen.
Jin Cheonhee’s eyes widened.
‘I am learning a lot from this disciple and teacher.’
That’s how Jin Cheon-hee learned the [Strike Kang Ho-in] skill.
* * *
Jin Tianxi and Zhuge Lin.
The two priests traveled around and hired a large number of strongmen.
And the budget….
“Hee, there is no need to pay the right price to the powerful people and take advantage of them.”
“But considering their hourly budget, shouldn’t we give them something to match? “Master?”
“Listen carefully. Anyway, after they finish civil engineering here, they will eat their money and do more expensive work. Also, we don’t know whether they will do their job properly or not. “In terms of experience, you have no experience.”
“yes. Yes.”
“In a way, we are teaching them how to do civil engineering.”
It was a logic I had seen many times before.
‘It’s like an internship system on Earth… Ugh, my head…’
Jin Cheon-hee suddenly remembered her past self, and the painful wounds that had been sealed flashed by like a flash of light.
Either way, Master Zhugelin continued.
“So, I just need you to bring me some elixir. “There are a lot of bastards who will eat this and plunder the top of Baeklin’s Pavilion anyway, so take it easy.”
“….”
“You have to leave at least a little more money to save the rescue.”
“…okay. Master. “This disciple understood.”
“There is a story that has been handed down since ancient times in the Zhuge family. I’m going to hit the first one, and I’m going to hit the second one. “If you use the power of the enemy, you can hit even harder.”
‘…First of all, the image of the Zhuge family in the past was definitely not one of power and virtue.’
Suddenly, Jin Cheon-hee had an unpleasant thought and shook her head.
‘Huh, what was I thinking!?’
Master Zhugelin continued.
“Anyway, if you treat him well, he will become stronger and come to stab you in the back. “You would rather use that money to feed the civilians.”
The combination of Zhuge Dynasty’s family tradition(?) and the teacher’s childhood experiences created an incredible teaching.
‘Anyway, by working with Master, I was able to save 75% of my initial budget. I wonder if this makes sense, but to show such a miracle with just three inches of tongue… Kang Ho-in becomes a hero in front of Yeongdan.’
Budget 75% discount coupon.
It was literally like a strategist’s utopia.
‘No, maybe Eun-won turns people into pushovers.’
I could understand why Master did not neglect collecting information even though his awareness of Baeklin had grown so much.
I will have to keep this in mind when using Kang Ho-in in the future.
* * *
So they began to dig a waterway using a large number of hired strongmen.
“You can just dig out the area you drew with chalk.”
“What about the shape?”
“That will be done by technicians who will come later. First of all, please give priority to building a waterway that only allows water to flow. “It would be easy to think of it as creating a stream.”
Jin Cheon-hee wore a yellow hard hat and taught each lesson as if explaining it to a child.
So did he.
Among the powerful people gathered here, many have killed people, but none have done civil engineering.
Therefore, it would have been better to have technician Yang Min do the simple but labor-intensive work and then use Yang Min to finish it.
Kugwagwagwagwang!
And behind Jin Cheon-hee and Kang Ho-in, Shinhwa was running wild.
A white beauty covering her mouth with a fan.
And the five-colored clouds rising from its body are plowing the ground.
It definitely felt like I was walking, but I moved at the rate of ten steps per day.
And at the same time, the earth was splitting and a waterway was being created.
‘That…that!’
‘Are they plowing the land with empty waste?’
‘Strength! Ganggi takes its own form in the air! ‘Is it an intangible sword?’
‘I can’t believe Hyeolrin Gwangsal’s inaction was that bad! Could it be that he has reached the level of inaction of the Three Noble Ones!’
The powerful people are shocked.
However, Jin Cheon-hee spoke softly.
“Our teacher has probably reached the level of fame through martial arts. “You guys, don’t do that.”
‘I can’t do it even if I tell you, you idiot!’
‘What is he saying?!’
The warriors screamed inwardly at Jin Cheon-hee’s explanation.
Then, following Jin Cheon-hee’s signal, they began digging to create a waterway.
Apart from a heart full of astonishment and fear.
Because I had to work to get the elixir.
Under the direction of Jin Cheon-hee, who wore a yellow hard hat, they began to plow the land.
And a day later. The civilians nearby were shocked and amazed as they watched this.
“You mean they built this waterway in one day?!”
“Kang Ho-in made it?”
“How did you hire them to do that?”
The speed is truly terrifying.
It was nothing compared to the speed of summoning civilians to dig the ground.
Cut the ground with the sword and use internal energy to dig up the ground and move it all at once.
“Wow wow wow!”
Later, the speed itself became something to see, and some people even climbed a nearby hill to view the entire civil engineering project.
That’s a lot of speed.
In fact, the common people did not know that the length of the waterway dug by more than a thousand powerful warriors was similar to the length of the waterway dug by their teacher, Zhuge Lin, by himself.
Nevertheless.
The task of digging a waterway from the Yangtze River to water-poor areas throughout Zhejiang Province was not easy.
Digging. Digging. Sell again.
It even made Zhugelin shed a drop of sweat!
“Now we can start bringing in experts. Hee-ya.”
“Yes Master!”
When Jin Cheon-hee gave a signal, experts from Yangmin who were resting nearby started to finish.
They laid down the wood, stone and pebbles that the strongmen had moved in advance and began to roll them out smoothly.
Their role is to prevent waterways from becoming blocked or collapsed even when it rains.
Since Kang Ho-in did the work that required a lot of effort, the technicians literally only had to allocate their time to their roles.
“I’ve never felt this comfortable during any construction project in history.”
“That’s right. “Isn’t it originally supposed to be the common people like us who moved the materials?”
“But digging the land is also our job.”
Since I can only focus on completing the limited time, the speed has become faster.
The waterways have also become more solid.
“Baekrin-gun always does things this way, right?”
“I don’t know how on earth Governor Jin roasted and boiled Kang Ho-in.”
“But even if you build a waterway like this, it’s of little use if it doesn’t rain.”
“….”
Words that really set the mood. But it was also true.
“I see. If it doesn’t rain, this construction will ultimately be in vain. The water in the Yangtze River and the lake is not infinite.”
“Even though that’s not the case, the water level has dropped a lot.”
“….”
The atmosphere becomes heavy in an instant.
Then a worker said.
“You people! It might rain! All it takes is for it to rain! “If you do construction after unloading, you will be late!”
“That’s right. That’s true. “There is nothing more foolish than dying while doing nothing just because it doesn’t rain.”
“Let’s stop thinking about random things and get to work!”
The workers’ hands become faster.
They have never worked so quickly and comfortably in their lives.
And it will rain.
Now all you have to do is get off.
After a long drought, isn’t it time for some real rain?
Workers were literally removing stones from the bottom of the canal during the drought.
‘okay. If this is enough, heaven will show mercy.’
Some workers prayed for daylight.
‘Like striking a stone in a drought.’
Humans have made efforts, so please hope heaven responds.
‘The sky will have to help the daylight.’
Then suddenly a worker spoke.
“Honestly, it’s all useless. “Daylight is a waste of effort.”
“Have you said everything?”
“Everyone is trying to be positive right now, but look at the sky. “Is there a single cloud?”
Everyone raised their heads at those words.
It’s just green and clean.
A hatefully pale blue color.
“Ha, but you know how the weather will change.”
“The village elder said that the sky will not drop a single drop of rain for at least the next 15 days.”
“Big.”
“Do not ignore the truth. It won’t rain. “Daylight is wasted!”
I could even feel anger in the worker’s words.
When the others could not refute, he gained momentum and continued speaking.
“How could Il-gwang not know that? You are doing it even though you know it is futile. Since I’m here for a government job, I’m sure they’re trying to look good from above or something like that. Honestly, this isn’t even my land. Have you ever seen a manager who works hard under someone else’s jurisdiction?”
“….”
The workers hesitated, unable to answer.
Kang Ho-in, who was passing by at that time, said.
“Now that I think about it, I just heard that the sunlight is heading to the beach.”
“what?”
“They say they can’t believe in heaven, but they believe in people, so they head to the sea.”
“I don’t know what they’re doing at sea, but it’s probably something they’re doing to impress their superiors!”
The other workers shared looks at those words.
‘I tried to join Baeklin County, but in the end I couldn’t move because my parents opposed it, I guess?’
‘I guess there’s a lot of resentment built up in my heart.’
“Anyway, don’t expect too much from Il-gwang. If it doesn’t rain, it’s over. People can never defeat the sky!”
The workers who heard that thought.
Will it rain?
‘And why did the daylight go to the sea?’
