Chapter 1066
Episode 1066
Jin Cheon-hee met with public administration professors in the accounting room of Cheolgeumbang.
“Oh oh! Are you here? “I was waiting.”
From people who are happy to see you.
“Mr. Jin, what do you think these days about the toll tax introduced in this government?”
People who want to ask their opinions.
“Mr. Jin, Mr. Jin! “I want to know how to cook the food that Teacher Jin made!”
There were a variety of people, including those who had nothing to do with work but wanted to put an end to their hobbies today.
Jin Cheon-hee walked around among them and checked whether they were working properly as he had been taught.
“No matter how much you come as a teacher, you can’t carelessly look at other people’s budgets. So, shall we take a quick paper test?”
Wow!
A different enthusiasm from the Hua Empire officials.
Jin Cheon-hee was also embarrassed.
‘what? ‘Isn’t it normal to hate it because it’s extra work?’
I was sure there would be boos like ‘Woo-woo-woo’, but everyone’s eyes lit up and their fists clenched.
A bachelor gave a tip.
“Even so, Lord Bang told me that a bachelor who leaves a good impression on Teacher Jin will be greatly promoted.”
‘Oh my. ‘I never imagined this.’
Isn’t that too trusting?
No, beyond belief, I didn’t even mention it to Jin Cheon-hee in advance.
It seems that he was planning to have tea separately later and discuss which bachelor he liked the most.
In that sense, as soon as he saw Jin Cheon-hee, the bachelor who asked her for the recipe rather than saying a greeting or saying anything was a naan is a naan.
“Master Jin Cheon-hee’s test!? Heh! “I, who have broken through the four four precepts, mastered foreign languages, and studied Meat Standard Deviation Administrative Law to the point of perfection, will pass!”
“Hahaha! Do you know who this body is? I am a human abacus master! “At the age of only ten, I became proficient in arithmetic and reached heaven!”
“Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk at that. As soon as this body is born, it says, ‘Mite! I shouted, ‘Meat Standard Deviation Administrative Act!’”
Jin Cheonhee thought.
‘What criteria does Cheolgeumbang use to select bachelors?’
Although it is not as difficult as the past exam, it is one of the top ten in the world.
I heard it’s quite difficult to get in here, but for some reason, none of the people gathered seem to be sane.
Jin Cheon-hee secretly asked the bachelor.
“How much will my monthly salary be if I am promoted?”
“It triples. “That’s enough to buy a small house every month.”
“…!”
Right. I understood.
If so, I will accept it. Your heart (feat. material greed)!
After the note test.
Jin Cheonhee smiled brightly.
“Oh dear. I got 22 failing grades! “I guess reinforcement is needed.”
Argh–!
After all, motivation and brains are separate things.
Looking at that scene, Jin Cheonhee thought.
‘Well, everyone is smart… but seeing as the government officials learned it faster, it seems like the past exam is no joke.’
* * *
There was someone watching this scene from afar.
Ancestor Ark Cheolgeumcheon.
He heard Jin Cheon-hee doing something in the accounting office.
Even if I didn’t want to hear it, I had no choice but to listen to the loud shouts of the bachelors, even in the buildings around me.
The current ark’s owner, Cheolgeumsin, stands next to the previous ark.
Cheolgeumcheon asked.
“What on earth is that doing?”
“Governor Jin is a member of the Emperor’s favor, but he is also skilled in public administration to a degree that is difficult to match within the empire.”
With those words, Cheolgeumcheon realized what his son, Cheolgeumsin, was talking about.
“It looks like you’re in training. Huh… I guess that monster, Zhuge Se-ga, has raised a monster like himself.”
“So, father. What would you like to do? “I wish I could get treatment, but…”
“What difference will it make if I treat this arm now?”
“….”
A deep shadow falls on the face of the ancestral ark.
Even if he is a world-famous craftsman, his arm can be broken at the whim of someone in power.
No matter how much he is the ark of predecessors who has led the world’s top ten world leaders, he is ultimately a human being.
humdrum.
Contrary to people’s misconceptions, you don’t really get stronger as you get older.
Once the wing was broken, I knew how scary it was to fall.
I wasn’t sure if my old self would have the strength to overcome the hardships now.
A small sigh comes.
Finally, the son spoke.
“father. I know. Even if I try to stop him, my father will pick up the hammer again anyway.”
“Didn’t I just tell you that I was having a hard time?”
His son, Cheol Geum-shin, smiled slightly.
“yes. I heard it. But still, didn’t you heat the forge every morning?”
“You know I threw away the hammer after that day.”
“you’re right. But that didn’t stop him from abandoning his blacksmith shop.”
“….”
His father, Cheolgeumcheon, looked down at his hands again.
“If only. Even if my arm gets better, what if I can’t regain my previous skills?”
“That is…”
“It is the hand that has left the hammer for a long time. Even if I undergo treatment again, I wonder if I will be able to regain the skills I had back then. If so, this father…”
“He will endure.”
The son looks at his father.
Our shining eyes met.
Cheolgeumcheon stopped looking away because it was the same as his own eyes when he was young.
Actually, that was the scariest thing.
That I might be violently assaulted again, or that I was discouraged by the absurdity, all of those were just excuses.
What I’m more afraid of is that I won’t be able to find my skills even after my arm returns.
That distant fear remained.
If a worldly craftsman were to be reduced to a third-rate craftsman, would he be able to endure it?
‘It would be better for me to remain as the world’s master in the past…’
Thinking about that, my heart tingled.
Suddenly, a young man with blue eyes came to mind.
She was looking at him with flawless eyes.
He spoke with proper posture.
I’m sure you can make a good weapon.
Straight back and clear eyes.
A gaze filled with intelligence was speaking to him.
It can be done, it is possible.
‘What on earth does this old man see that makes him so sure?’
Thinking about those eyes made my solar plexus hurt again. It was the sound of a
tingling
heart crying.
‘Right. The fact that you brought up an old story to Sogakju means that you trust him that much. Even if it means risking your life.’
The same goes for incinerator liquor.
I believe in myself as much as I believe in the middle and the low.
In front of such eyes, the father-in-law could not tell a lie.
He opened his mouth, rubbing his tingling chest.
“…call the incinerator.”
* * *
Jin Cheon-hee enters the boudoir.
He sat down with a calm expression.
There is no persuasion to fix it. There is no prompting to ask if you have made up your mind.
‘I guess it’s up to me to decide.’
No matter what you choose, it ultimately comes down to the patient’s life.
There is only so much a lawmaker can do.
This was surprisingly familiar to Jin Cheon-hee, but Cheol Geum-cheon’s heart pounded as he encountered such a spectacular expression.
“First of all, how much do you know why this arm was broken?”
“I heard that they broke it because they made it a new recruit and disrupted the world.”
“Hahahahahahahahahahaha… yeah. That’s what you say. Is that how it is recorded in history? No, no. “It wouldn’t even be recorded in the first place.”
Cheolgeumcheon shed a bitter smile.
There was not a single liquor bottle left in the inner room.
‘What does this mean?’
Jin Tianxi thought to herself and waited to see what Tie Jintian would say.
Finally, the old man spoke.
“In the past, the Emperor once asked me to make a world-famous sword. That’s why I did my best to boil molten iron and melt Kangho’s sacred treasures to make a knife. And I once forged a sword like starlight.”
He spoke with dreamy eyes.
It’s a dream of the past.
It was a story of the most brilliant times.
“I was confident that it was my best sword. “I am confident that there will never be a better sword than that in my life.”
“….”
He looked down at his arms.
“…The Emperor was satisfied with the sword. It was called the best sword in the world. There must be a lot of famous swords buried in the imperial archives, and among them is the best sword in the world! “There was no praise like this, and I felt like I had become the best blacksmith in the world.”
“It’s a ramp.”
“no. It’s a scam. I have regretted this for the rest of my life, saying that if I had known this would happen, I would have made a slightly worse knife. Because this was the result.”
He held out his arm.
“The emperor was concerned that I would make the same sword in the future, so he broke it.”
“…It’s soy sauce and fermented soybean sprouts.”
An old story.
It was the same as Gosa’s, even breaking his craftsman’s arm because he was afraid he would make the same knife again.
“yes. However, unlike the story, the real emperor died of old age. “That’s the story.”
He looked down at his arm for a moment.
“Can you heal me like you used to?”
“Even if you destroy it, nothing will be the same as before. But I just try my best.”
“I can’t guarantee.”
“I don’t know how venomous the emperor was, and I also know how difficult the blacksmith work was. Have you mastered curing?”
“hmm. of course. “I learned it to be the purest.”
“Fortunately, the. Are you still practicing?”
“Every morning, I eat fortune-telling breakfast and practice herbivorous eating.”
“I’m glad about that too.”
Finally, the old man spoke.
“This time I will ask.”
“Please ask.”
“…Are you sure I can get better?”
“I think I’ll have to take a pulse for more details.”
“So how long do you think it will take?”
“Because of his age, it usually takes three months to over a year for his bones to harden completely. However, Kang Ho-in’s recovery speed exceeds that of Yang Min, and it can be shortened depending on the achievements of the health practitioner.”
“….”
“Of course, this is just a story on the surface, and it also needs to be confirmed to be accurate.”
The old man closes his eyes.
Will I be able to fight again?
Are you ready to fight?
However, with the fire boiling in my heart, I felt like I had to light this fire in the blacksmith shop –
“The weapon you want. “What if I fail?”
“I will do it because it is also fate.”
“You are a quack without a plan.”
At those words, Jin Cheon-hee burst out laughing.
A tear flowed from one of the old man’s eyes.
“You cannot guarantee that you will definitely get better, nor can you guarantee when the recovery time will be, so you are quite a quack.”
“Hehehe, the lawmaker may seem great, but in fact, any lawmaker can become a quack if he or she doesn’t do the right thing.”
“…and this old man who hasn’t held a hammer in a long time is also a quack.”
Are there still tears left to flow?
He said.
“Let’s do our best among quacks.”
“Yes~”
Jin Cheonhee playfully held out her hand.
“Now then, are you going to get sick?”
“hmm.”
The old man moved his trembling arm and held it out to Jin Cheonhee.
Finally, he furrows his forehead slightly.
“Does it hurt every time you move?”
“They say if you don’t have a pulse, the doctor is a quack. He’s a quack who seems to have a lot to say.”
“The ancestor Ark, who entrusts the work to such a quack, is also a quack blacksmith.”
“yes.”
You may not be able to find your old skills.
The best blacksmith in the world could now be remembered as third-rate.
But after telling myself that I was a quack, I felt relieved for some reason.
“okay. I’m a quack too. “Everyone starts out as a quack.”
Tears are pouring down again.
The old man is ready to fight.
‘How much my hands remember the technology of fifty years ago.’
I can not know.
But move. If you can move, I am ready to burn your soul in this hot fire.
The spot in my solar plexus that had been tingling before I called him was now burning.
It felt like I had been burned.
‘I will make you my best recruit.’
Even if it means burning your life in molten iron.
Is there anything I can’t do now?
The blacksmith swore.
“What kind of recruit do you want?”
“….”
Half a hundred years of resentment.
Become a flame and rise up.
