Deng! Dang! Dang!
The bell rings.
People who were cutting down trees and digging up their roots leave pickaxes and axes in place and start moving.
“Hey Mr. Wang! It’s lunch time. Let’s eat and do it.”
“Wait a minute… this guy… was good!”
puck!
A man called Mr. Wang delivers the final blow to the base of the tree.
Damn it!
Then the tree fell to the side.
“Hwiwoo. “Now let’s go eat.”
Wanggeum.
Born into an ordinary farming family, he was one of the refugees who flooded into the area now named Seobaekrin.
Just like most people in this era.
Why is he here, who used to make a living by renting Toho’s farmland and doing sharecropping?
It was because farming in the area where he lived had failed.
There was a poor harvest and he, a tenant farmer, reached a point where he could not survive.
In the end, it was this man named Wang Geum who ran away at night with his family and came to Seobaekrin County with the intention of working at the port to support his family.
To him, this project is no different from a rope sent down from the sky.
Give me all my meals.
They also gave him plenty of money. Moreover, if you take part in this work, even if you are a refugee, you will be accepted as a citizen of the county and a new title will be issued.
Last winter was quite harsh, so in fact, there were quite a lot of refugees from counties near Baeklin County.
It is natural that most of them jump into this construction project.
The king heard that the number was over 10,000 people.
The construction that took up half of it was road construction and sewer construction.
Wang Geum is working at a construction site on one of those roads.
Boeung (??), the most prosperous village in Seobaeklin, is a port city on a lake and is famous for trade and entertainment.
Construction is underway to build a road that connects directly to Dongbaekrin County Office and at the same time connects directly to Baekrin Uigak.
The original roads will be repaired, and where there are no roads, new roads will be created.
The estimated construction period is approximately 3 months!
Incredible construction period.
Still, I have no worries because I feel like I will be able to live comfortably next year after working like this for a long time.
“Living in Baeklin County has become easier these days.”
“right. The Emperor has already sorted it out once. “Actually, you don’t know the details of what happened below, do you?”
“yes.”
The civilians nodded their heads in a hurry.
“They say all the corrupt officials have been caught, and the new officials are doing their jobs so well.”
“Long live the Baeklinuiseon, the brightest day in the world!”
“Uh huh, long live…. Isn’t that disloyal!”
“And the light of day! “How crazy is our Deputy County Commander?”
“Didn’t you say that Ilgwang was the one who asked me to do strange things when you first started construction?”
At those words, Wang Geum’s face turned red and he screamed.
“Oh my! That’s a long time ago! And was it just me! “Everyone said that.”
* * *
Ah, you don’t know. This is a small pump.
In other words, it is a manual water pump. And this is a toilet seat.
A place to present this to officials.
In the past, to get water, you had to throw a bucket at a local well and then pull it up by hand.
Of course, the water that spills as the bucket rises is also water, and it is also very time consuming.
For the elderly and weak, even getting water is a huge pain.
Also, since he is a strongman, the story always starts with him poisoning the well.
The biggest problem is this.
It’s too easy to poison the well.
Even though the assassins are going to such lengths to catch Kang Ho-in, no matter how much the villagers stand guard.
It’s not once or twice that if you drop a single opinion, you’ll be in trouble without a word.
Even though a poison that only causes poisoning without significantly changing the taste of water is expensive, would it be as expensive as all the long-term people?
Plus, even if the taste of the water changes a bit, you might think, ‘Oh, the water tastes weird. Everyone, stop drinking!’ The one who says ‘Stop drinking!’ is the main character of the martial arts magazine.
In reality, it was soup made by my grandmother. I’m not sure if I should say that my liver is weird, but I’ve already finished the entire bowl.
When things get out of hand like that, even local lawmakers get mentally upset.
Even well water is connected to each other, so in some cases it reaches the next village.
There is no CCTV or resident registration here, so it is impossible to find out which assassin did it. Yang Min will just die.
On the other hand, the Jakdu pump is a conventional pump device that uses the principle of a piston and was installed quite often in Korea in the past.
Poison here?
First of all, you have to open it, but if you want to do it, it’s much more complicated than a well.
I had Hao-moon sprinklers check it, and even if I keep it quiet, will the head pump be quiet as well?
As soon as I tear it open, a neighborhood dog comes and starts barking.
Even if it couldn’t stop the peak spray, it did filter out the first-class spray.
Helen, can you feel it? This is Water. Water.
It was like that. Mr. Sullivan and the village head pump contributed to Helen Keller’s enlightenment.
‘Now that water pipes have been installed in every house, it has disappeared, but before that, it was quite useful.’
How to use?
Just press it.
Of course, it requires strength, but compared to the strength expended while pulling up a bucket, it is much less comfortable and more hygienic than a well.
“Oh really. That’s amazing. But if something breaks down, shouldn’t professional officials, not villagers, keep going to fix it?”
That’s not all.
If managed incorrectly, this can also become the main cause of waterborne infectious diseases.
In London, people died from cholera due to mismanagement of this disease, and the doctor who discovered it is John Snow.
Anyway, you will have to continue to be careful about this until one pump per household.
“That’s why administration exists.”
Jin Cheon-hee said so.
“As Baeklin County grows, more technicians are needed. Supplementing manpower will be the key. Also, we will have to reorganize water supply and sewage management, so that is also a concern now.”
Even if we can’t install it in every house, shouldn’t we install it in every district?
And if one pump is contaminated, the waterway must be built well from the beginning to prevent other water supplies from being contaminated through the water supply.
‘After all, it is a planned city, so preparation is possible.’
Fortunately, there are technicians who have been with us since Yeonmu City, so we can make and install it.
The problem is the management staff…
In the end, it was decided that not only the poor people would move on, but the senior staff would also move on.
Touching this means creating a new planned city, so it’s a situation that we can never respond to with a bunch of idiots.
This has to be done by seniors.
The little ones have to learn.
“Let’s move on.”
It’s a toilet seat.
If you eat it, you have to eat it.
Although the placenta is deleted from the novel for the sake of readers’ mental health.
Since it is a living thing, it has to be cleaned when it is eaten, and in this day and age, toilets are often disposed of with two wooden boards.
There are many cases of urinating on the street.
Isn’t it true that Confucius once said something to a guy who pooped on the side of the road, but he didn’t say anything to the guy who pooped in the middle of the road, saying, “I can’t teach that bastard?”
We live in an era where toilets are far away and public health is also far away.
So, of course, the smell of cow dung, horse dung, and human dung always comes into the air.
In places with good administrative maintenance, the streets are swept and cleaned, but in places that are not well-maintained… Anyway,
in this day and age, it often happens that children drown to death while using the toilet.
If we collect old stories from the past, don’t we come across stories of ghosts who fell into the bathroom and died?
According to past WHO data, about 1 billion people around the world urinate in the open and 2.4 billion people do not have a toilet at home.
If that’s the case in Hyundai, it won’t be much different here.
‘Luckily here, we have enough capital to supply manpower, so we can do it.’
The toilet principle itself is surprisingly simple.
It doesn’t even require electricity.
However, since it is a restroom, each person must use it conscientiously and cleanly….
‘Hehehe! I am the wise man! This is power!’
I will make sure you wash your hands when you leave the bathroom.
Anyone who puts something strange into a toilet hole will be caught and scolded!
And the collected waste is reprocessed and systematically converted into fertilizer!
The doctor’s heart raced at the thought of burning even a single parasite egg.
“First of all, the priority is to install a couple of toilets in each block. The ultimate goal is to have it in every home.”
This is a method used in developing countries.
In the case of flushing, excrement cannot be recycled as fertilizer, so it is not used at this stage.
Now, we have dug deep into the toilet, spread clean concrete underneath, and treated the pipes to prevent maggots and flies from climbing up.
A huge reinforced box is placed inside to make it easy and convenient to transport human waste.
The ultimate goal is to have one in every home.
By the time we got there, public hygiene would have advanced even further.
‘And to sustain that, we have to keep adding administrative staff.’
And that budget.
“Actually, this is possible because we have money.”
Jin Cheon-hee opened her mouth.
“Once we install it on a test basis, we will provide a tax reduction for citizens who want to install it in their own homes.”
This is also possible because there is a budget.
For reference, surprisingly, it was Geumhyeolbang that started the installation first.
Toilets began to be installed like this in the large rooms belonging to Geumhyeolbang.
In the past, the bathrooms of guesthouses were not much different from those of private homes, but with the installation of toilet seats, bathroom use became much more hygienic.
Surprisingly, this is a water closet.
It is a surprisingly proper flushing method that uses the pressure difference in the siphon pipe and the principle of a lever.
However, it has the disadvantage of having to constantly replenish water manually.
The water supply system is not as well established as it is in modern times, so water has to be pumped and transported. That can’t be helped.
Still, how clean it is!
Force health through power! Let’s achieve a hygienic society!
Of course, there is also the disadvantage that the accumulated waste must be filtered through a four-stage septic tank rather than being sent directly to the river.
‘Well, in this day and age, people just throw urine and feces into the river.’
If we go that way, we will experience another plague outbreak, so we decided to introduce the method used in Smoke City to ancient times.
Of course, there are some warriors who complain that they cannot adapt because of the sound made when flushing, but it seems that Sima Xuan and his Haomen organization are managing it well in the ‘Sapa style’.
In any case, there is no risk of assassins hiding in a conventional poop bucket and stabbing them.
Is that an assassination method used quite often in the Gangho?
‘I can’t believe they are installing it faster than I am even bringing it in.’
The loud sound made when water is flushed is being corrected.
The new officials were amazed with their eyes shining.
“Oh, I want to install one at my house too.”
“I think it would be less scary if I did this because I wouldn’t hear any creaking noises at night.”
“It’s hygienic. “I like it.”
The perspective of seniors is different.
“To do this, I need to find out how much ground I have to dig. Do you want me to do all the maintenance?”
“So you want to redo the district maintenance?”
“We need to start with foundation construction. Have you already talked to your craftsman?”
“Who will select the relevant budget?”
“Who can I ask to find out how often I should dispose of waste? Deputy Hyeonryeong.”
It was like that.
Seniors who had experienced all sorts of hardships first calculated the amount of work that would come.
The paperwork that would come up right away was more urgent than pooping in a clean place.
Still, in a precipitous Confucian society, not being a yes man and asking about workload first is a great achievement in itself.
Baek Rin-hyeon’s fortune is good, and it is a great advantage to be able to live without worrying about medical expenses in this world where you have to die if you get sick, let alone medical insurance.
However, the disadvantage is that, unlike other prefectures, civil engineering and architectural arithmetic has to be taught in a difficult manner.
“Do you mean to install a small-head manual water pump by digging all the way to the groundwater, or is it a method of connecting water pipes after burying them?”
“Looking at the cross section, there is a filtration device, but the supply of materials is…”
Jin Cheon-hee said brightly.
“Yes, please ask a question.”
