“Please kill me!”

‘It’s over...’

Hyang muttered inwardly at Jang-on’s shout. But I also understood the scent.

‘Well, if it’s Jang Yeong-sil...’

Jang On must have known Hyang’s feelings and desperately made an excuse.

“Isn’t the late Director Jang Yeong-sil a person whose magic

reached the heavens? Even the small gods who had already become accustomed to him by living with him for more than a dozen years were often amazed by his strangeness, but it was only natural for the inexperienced natives to think that the strange talent did not belong to humans! The deceased, who knew this well, prevented them from considering themselves sacred during his lifetime,

but the natives were so foolish...”

“Stop. “I understand what you’re trying to say.”

Hyang raised his hand to stop Jang On from speaking.

‘Even I doubt that Jang Yeong-sil is an alien, so wouldn’t it be scary? ‘

While Hyang was thinking that, Jang On and the other craftsmen were contemplative and only watching Hyang’s thoughts.

The reason they became so thoughtful was because worshiping Jang Yeong-sil as a god was itself a great act of disrespect.

Since ancient times, the only thing equal to heaven was the king. However, the fact that a mere subject or even a father-in-law was worshiped as a god meant that the person concerned and the king were of the same level.

Naturally, this was regarded as disrespect or disloyalty, and it was a situation where there was nothing to say even if accused.

While Jang On and his craftsmen were shaking in fear, Hyang, who was reminiscing about Jang Yeong-sil, asked Jang On.

“Did Taesang-tae know about this? ”

“Yes.”

“What did you say? ”

“He said, ‘Do not criticize these people who have not known the wideness of the world until now.’ However, I have told you to strictly refrain from doing so in the future.”

“Hmm...”

After thinking for a moment about Jang On’s words, Hyang immediately made a decision.

“There is no mistake in what Tae Sang-tae said. So, please keep it as is.”

“I follow your orders.”

“I will not hold you accountable for your sins this time, but if something like this happens again in the future, I will hold you accountable for your sins.”

“I will keep this in mind!”

“It would be a good idea to collect and display the items made by the indigenous people separately and place a plaque with a name written like this in front of them. ‘People who admired Jang Yeong-sil’s mysterious skills used their own dexterity to create these. ‘I mean. You know what I mean, right? “

“I will do it right away!”

Jang-on and the craftsmen, who had revived the knight, answered with one voice.

And Jang On and the craftsmen immediately carried out Hyang’s orders.

Jang On and his craftsmen, who left only the tombstone and altar in front of Jang Yeong-sil’s tomb, created a small exhibition hall near the grave. In that space, which consisted only of pillars and a roof, various sculptures made by indigenous people were displayed, and at the entrance of the exhibition hall, there was a stone monument engraved with the words spoken by Hyang.

As a side note, this exhibition hall was later transformed into an exhibition hall that preserves the traditional crafts and culture of the Shinji indigenous people.

***

Hyang recalled an anecdote from the past and strengthened his decision.

‘Equality among civil servants was legislated, and the caste system was actually diluted considerably. Except for Gwanno, who is a political prisoner.’

As Hyang said, the caste system was considerably diluted in the empire. In particular, as it was treated as property and subject to additional taxes, Sanobi almost disappeared. Most of the remaining Sanobi were too old and had problems becoming self-reliant. The imperial court, which acknowledged this problem, also reduced taxes appropriately in this situation.

However, Gwanno still existed in large numbers. However, the concept of government labor has changed a lot from before, and now

the people working in mines and various difficult labor sites as government labor are political prisoners and their descendants.

Of course, as a relief measure for those who became government slaves as soon as they were born because they were descendants of political prisoners, King Sejong enacted a law to exempt them from punishment in the third generation.

The problem was that there were very few descendants of political prisoners who continued through the third generation.

Although the caste system was greatly diluted with the exception of government labor, subtle discrimination still existed.

That’s why Hyang came up with the idea of using Jang Yeong-sil.

‘For artisans, the name Jang Yeong-sil carries enormous weight. If you use this well, you can dilute the bad habits of craftsmen and merchants and use it as a powerful motivation for growth. Then, as expected...’

This was the evaluation of incense circulating among craftsmen.

‘I can’t believe I actually saw the situation in which Sang Sang designed it himself! This is the best luck of my life! ‘

‘Such luck! We have something to brag about for generations to come! ‘

‘What kind of freight train were you thinking of? ‘

“Hmm... Hmm...”

Hyang, holding a stylus in his hand, drew a picture and explained.

“The basic framework is the same as what the late Director Jang Yeong-sil thought. It uses the power of gunpowder to fire a bullet. However, if you use the gunpowder fumes right away, the soot can clog the pipe and cause it to malfunction. That’s why we attach a push rod like this so that the smoke pushes the push rod.”

“Ah!”

“And the magazine is made into a box shape like this and inserted into the top. This way, even if the spring inside the magazine breaks, there is no need to worry because the bullets will continue to come down.”

“Ah! That’s right! Indeed!”

Jang On and the craftsmen were amazed while listening to the pictures and explanations.

However, what Jang On and Jain admired most was the concept of swapping gun barrels.

“..... If you replace the barrel of the freight car like this, you can solve the overheating problem. Of course, it would be a problem if the enemies flocked to the point where there was no time to exchange, but I think that is a problem for the commanders to solve.” ”

That’s right! ”

Seeing Jang On and the craftsmen nodding their heads repeatedly, Hyang took a breath and asked,

“Phew~ I thought about it like this for now, what do you think? ”

As soon as Hyang finished his question, Jang On and the craftsmen bowed down on the floor and shouted,

“His Majesty Sang Sang has bestowed his blessings and expanded the realm of the world! Hwang Eun is in ruin!”

“Hwang Eun is in ruin!”

In response to the cries of Jang On and the craftsmen, Hyang He smiled humbly and waved his hand.

“What about Hwang Eun? Do you think it’s okay?”

“This is the best! We will make proper drawings and prototypes soon!”

“Good luck.”

Hyang muttered to himself as he looked at the high spirits of Jang On and the craftsmen.

‘If you make it right, it will become the light machine gun that took the world by storm.’

What Hyang showed the craftsmen was the Bren light machine gun. As Hyang said, it was one of the light machine guns that dominated the era.

It was one of the firearms whose construction I was eager to see through Yang Deok, whom I had developed a close relationship with when I went to the United States.

“Please give me a name for this freight car.”

Hyang immediately responded to Jang On’s request.

“This is a light freight car that I can carry alone, so let’s call it a light freight car. And since it is the first product to be released, we will add A (甲) and call it an A-type light vehicle.”

“Yes. I will!”

Hyang, who was organizing the situation while listening to Jang On’s answer, continued speaking as if he suddenly remembered something.

“Ah! You know that prototype freight car that Director Jang Yeong-sil made earlier? That little one.”

“Yes? Yes.”

“Please add a clause saying ‘barrel replacement will be easily possible’ to the documents related to that prototype freight car. It would be very useful if just the barrel could be easily replaced.”

“Ah! Yes! I’ll add it right away! I’ll post it in the challenge log right away! ”

Hyang shook his head at Jang On’s words.

“Have you forgotten why Director Jang Yeong-sil gave such an order? Just keep it in storage for the time being.”

“Yes.”

Jang On couldn’t hide his regret, but Hyang also had a reason.

‘I’m sure if the military sees it, they’ll make a fuss about hiring us right away. There are already a lot of things to spend money on, so if you try to change everything, starting with bullets, it

won’t be the military. The Ministry of Finance and Economy will stage a coup. In the current situation, we have a lot of time to spare, so it’s best to bury it.’

After solving one problem, Hyang came out with a relieved expression on her face and screamed inwardly.

‘I feel like I can finally live! After all, living is fun only if you practice virtue! ‘What’s in life?’
