Chapter 267 – 3. Dongju in May (4)
Shen and Fang diligently carried items onto the deck.
YuRia’s condition is not that serious, but it’s definitely not normal, and it’s clear that she’ll be greatly helpless if she goes out of the background, so I started to prepare to the point where I thought it was a little excessive.
Various recovery, healing, and detoxification potions.
And bedding to add cushions to the bed.
She was going to feign illness as surely as she had feigned illness with the king.
And Yuria’s condition is actually not very malingering.
In no time at all, sailors came out to the patrol boat next to Baek Kyung and began diligently servicing the inside of the boat.
I took out the luggage and tools I used to use and began to fill them with the luggage and tools that were tied down with a rope from the Baek Kyung.
“Hey… What the hell is going on, why is this a mess?”
One of the sailors looked up at the huge boat standing next to the patrol boat and clicked her tongue.
It was a truly monstrous ship. It was large, but the pure white metal that covered the surface was completely unidentifiable.
Ordinary metal would rust quickly if it came into contact with water, but I couldn’t find a trace of it on that boat even after washing my eyes.
What does it mean to have a big belly?
Wouldn’t it be that it was made for the purpose of sailing the sea from the beginning?
The same goes for river water, but salt water from the sea makes iron and metal rust faster.
Even if you wipe the surface with oil every day and put an oil film around it, if you keep floating on the sea for days and days on a plate that is not enough, the oil film on the metal surface will disappear in an instant and corrosion of the metal will begin.
Is it protecting the ship with the power of some unknown witchcraft?
“Never mind”
“But…”
A fellow sailor secretly taught management.
He glanced at the official, pointing over his shoulder.
This incident was a warning that digging too deep would be dangerous.
“…”
Okay. A thousand things like yourself will get hurt if you know what the higher ups think.
If you just do what you’re told to do, you should hope that you will be loved and that even a little bit of rice cake will fall off.
As soon as the equipment and cargo were replaced in the patrol boat, three people jumped out of the big boat.
A girl with light blue transparent hair, like a child, and a red-haired young man with long, pretty hair that seemed like a woman at the moment. And a strange woman with horns like a young deer growing on her head and a long tail like a dragon.
Since the dragon was originally a beast that ascended to heaven by accumulating training, there was no such thing as a child of a dragon.
The dragon’s offspring had a serpent, but the serpent had no horn and looked like a large snake. Of course, its appearance is quite different from ordinary snakes, and its size is very large, so it is distinguished from snakes, but it is characteristic of the serpent that it does not have the characteristics of a dragon.
That’s why there was no such thing as an immature dragon. Because the dragon itself is a perfect being, and it was a general fact that before becoming a dragon, you had to live as a serpent and gain enlightenment by accumulating training.
So, what is this woman in front of you?
Could it be that the facts they knew were wrong and that the woman in front of them was an immature dragon?
The appearance of this black half-yong half-man confused the sailors in many ways.
New liquid new liquid.
On the bed prepared on board her ship, Yuria did not hide her sickness in the slightest, and she fell asleep the entire time the ship was moving.
It’s tough, but it’s not tough.
Yuria is not weak with the ability of her natural body, but since Yuria’s body was built on the premise of using her ability from the beginning, not being able to use her ability was just as exhausting.
Even if she can’t use her abilities, her spiritual condition isn’t as messed up as before. It’s fortunate that her condition isn’t as bad as the old Yuria’s, as it’s just that she can’t use her abilities because the organ in charge of her abilities has been suppressed. .
Normally, Yuria wouldn’t show it because she didn’t want to cause concern to those around her, but right now, she showed such a painful expression. She went to sleep to recover, revealing all of her own illness without hiding it.
The official also thought, seeing Yuria like that, that what he said to the king was not mean-spirited.
So the ship was moving quickly over the waterway and heading towards its destination.
The surrounding landscape changed every moment.
The image of villages with houses unique to the Yeon Kingdom, built halfway over the water, or a farmer plowing a rice field with a water buffalo, which I have seen before.
Is it a tree with very long roots?
There was also a place full of trees that YuRia would have said were mangroves.
While admiring this and that unfamiliar exotic scenery, Roa heard a wailing sound, huh? I looked back.
There, Chung was eating a huge crab whole.
“To?”
Where the hell did I get that?
It seemed like everyone else was embarrassed by the out of nowhere mukbang.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t look like he’s ever gotten off the ship, but it was really a mystery when and where he got it.
“Is it delicious to eat that way?”
“?”
Cheung, who was chewing on a large mangrove crab, just tilted her head. Even the ship’s crew broke into a cold sweat as the sound of thick and durable crab shells cracking and breaking on their jagged teeth resounded over and over again.
It’s a delicious crab if you cook it, but the shell is so strong that it’s hard to eat unless you break the shell with a hammer or something like that.
“Doesn’t it taste good if you eat it like this?”
Fast! Wrong!
“Well, I just want you to be delicious.”
“Yes”
Wouldn’t it be fine if you were delicious?
That’s how cheong is yomnyomnyom and other people see it! Fast! With a terrifying sound, he ate all the big crabs before he knew it.
Chung is not that small, but since he has the physique of an average woman, it was to the point of wondering how he managed to fit that large crab into his stomach.
Should I ask
I thought about it for a while, but decided to just move on.
Come to think of it, Yuria doesn’t usually eat too much, but if she decides to eat a lot, she can eat a lot.
Above all, it is said that it has a half-human appearance now, but since Qing’s true identity is an Imoogi, considering the size of its main body, that level may not be anything.
In reality, Cheong was still chewing on her taste buds, as if he was still feeling sorry for her.
“Everything has arrived”
Gradually, I saw a lot of farmers driving water buffaloes around the rice fields, and it seemed that I had arrived at my destination.
“It is the largest rice producer in the Yan Kingdom and the territory that produces the highest quality rice. It is the closest, so I came here first.”
Before long, the ship went into a huge mansion with a very unique style for Roa and Yuria.
I entered the building, perhaps because of the architectural style with a fairly open structure.
Perhaps it is because the main architectural style is to build pillars on top of the water rather than on a stable ground. In many ways, each part of the house seemed to be as lightweight as possible.
“How is it in winter here?”
“It’s a winter horse. You can see that over there.”
Behind the house the official pointed out, there was a house with a rather unique shape on the land side.
The wall was built so that the logs, which were processed to fit each other well with only minimal processing to make the most of the thickness of the logs, were tightly interlocked to the point where there was not even a gap to fit a piece of paper.
“Could that be it?”
“It’s quite warmer than I thought. I don’t use it when it’s not winter because it’s hot.”
It seemed that the visible logs were not all.
As a result, Roa became more curious about the identity of that winter house, but decided to skip it for now.
First of all, the important thing is what Yuria wanted to do in the kingdom of Yeon.
Roa quietly shook Yuria’s shoulder and woke her up.
“Yuria, we’re all here now. Get up.”
“… Ugh, ugh…”
YuRia, who stood up from her seat looking a bit tired, regained her senses right away, perhaps because it was just her rested sleep.
“Can I give you a potion?”
“It’s not like that”
Awakening her spirit by lightly tapping her cheeks, YuRia looked at the strange mansion in front of her and said, “Hey.” She did and she admired little.
Then she looked at the log house behind the mansion and looked at it with interest.
“A winter house? Hmm, there might be more behind the scenes, but it’s quite effective.”
“Does YuRia know that just by looking at it?”
“Because wood has better insulation performance than I thought. If it is as thick as a log, it will be quite warm even if it blocks the wind well.”
In fact, the country called Russia in the civilization before the reset that disappeared from the earth now was also quite famous for log cabins.
It looked very different here from Russia, but in the end there was not much difference in its basic principles.
“But it’s really rough. It’s really just a house for winter. I have a good feeling about how it’s going to be, but I wonder if it’s okay to take a look at it later…”
“You’re amazing. You can listen to it now if you want.”
“At least, didn’t it feel like the ground was soggy that it was half floating on the water? When winter starts, the ground will harden. The rest of the reinforcement work will be done at that time. Moss, dry grass, fur, etc. Daehan Construction, etc.”
The official flinched with a very surprised expression and looked at her YuRia.
“Ho, did you find out and come here?”
“It’s just obvious”
Certainly, the winter house was similar to what YuRia said.
When the ground began to harden around the time of winter, the floor was hardened, thick carpets and furs woven from animal hair were laid on the floor and ceiling, and dry grass and moss were added to the walls to reinforce warmth.
It was unavoidable because if you tried to do these things in advance, they would be useless because they would eat water due to the wet ground.
Then, the brazier and chimney were repaired, and the place that served as the kitchen and fireplace was last repaired to prepare for the winter.
“It’s accurate. You said it was obvious, but how can you look only at that wooden wall, and there’s a slight difference, but it’s so accurate…”
“Haha…”
Roa scratched her cheek with an awkward smile.
She knew she was a bit stupid, but as she lived, she realized that she wasn’t that stupid either.
It’s not just that the main thing to compare is not a genius, but it’s not a heaven among the ‘wizards’ where geniuses of geniuses gather, but among them, Mr. It’s just because Yuria can’t even feel it. In fact, in front of YuRia, even Uncle Cashwin becomes an idiot, so what about them?
“Then I will serve you. Please come this way.”
The provincial governor of Geumyang, the largest granary of Yeon Kingdom, was very nervous.
It was because a very precious guest came to visit, so that the name of Mosi came down without any deficiency by the king’s order.
The kingdom opened to them was greatly favored. The guests said that they wanted to do a large-scale trade with the kingdom of Yeon with the ball.
Even though rice and avocados and other crops that require a lot of water and various marine products are abundant, the kingdom of Yeon, which lacks many resources in many ways, desperately needed to create at least one more country to trade with each other.
In the meantime, the other side said they wanted to receive the light by trading about their balls, so from the kingdom’s point of view, there was no more precious guest than this.
More than anything. It is possible to send and receive goods to and from the western region in real time through a special treasure rather than being transported through a ship.
This was an opportunity not to be missed.
‘Cancer. When it comes to our kingdom, rice is the best.
However, he had to leave the mansion in a hurry as he only received the call on the day when the guest was coming.
As far as how many of the officials are clean, he was on the side of very poor quality among those officials.
Drugs and slavery. Human trafficking, etc.
However, today a very important guest has come. It was as if a great guest, whom the king was very fond of, was coming to the province under his management.
Hurrying and hastily, he went to find the merchants behind him who were looking after him and gave them a firm order.
I have a very important guest today, so don’t go around recklessly.
What about the goods coming from the West Continent?
This kind of illegal transaction is also a big money, but it was clear that the rare items that came across the continent would also be a very big money.
Despite the still cool spring weather, he hurriedly walked around and talked, sweating profusely. He hurried back to the mansion, washed himself, and quickly changed his clothes.
Just as he was about to finish things in a hurry, as if he were roasting beans over a fire of lightning, the butler came and told him that the guests had already arrived and were waiting.
After a while. When he saw the customers drinking tea with simple refreshments in the central hall, his heart skipped a beat! And cried
It’s small like a child, but it’s so voluptuous breasts that don’t look like a child, and that mature body.
And light blue hair with a transparent texture that exudes a mysterious atmosphere.
Her mysterious appearance, which was so unhuman, was an unrealistic appearance, as if a celestial fairy had descended to the earth.
He blankly watched her for a while at her appearance, and he was keuheum! I was brought back to my senses by the sound of the patrol clearing his throat.
“This, this. The guest was so beautiful that I stopped leaving him. I’m sorry.”
YuRia’s brow furrowed slightly at the sight of the provincial official in a state of perplexity.
Except for a few crazy people, there were no people who were shaken even if they saw him, so there was nothing to frown on, but the local governor had lust and greed in his eyes.
Not just her admiration, but her eyes, as if she were evaluating her body and face as if she were valuing things, and in many ways went against Yuria’s heart.
“The customer wanted to trade with our kingdom, and we had already heard that we were running a very large merchant company in the western continent. As expected, rice is the best when it comes to our kingdom. Among them, our rice from Geumyang is the best. If you are thinking of trading with the continent, choosing our Geumyang region is really the best choice.
YuRia’s impression became more and more frowned upon seeing the official playing drums and drums by herself.
And Roa, who caught YuRia’s expression before anyone else, quietly raised her hand.
It is only now that Yuria’s expression has become quite rich, but in the early days, Yuria’s expression was really insignificant.
It was just that the change in facial expression was so insignificant.
That’s why Roa was still able to catch even the slightest change in Yuria’s expression.
“I want to see the real thing, not like this. And I want to see the place where it is grown.”
“Oh, that’s right. Then I’ll take you to the warehouse.”
YuRia, who came out of the mansion, was amazed at the unusual means of transportation she had never seen before.
A unique wheel that looks like a waterwheel with a lot of slots and a very shallow slot for the water to enter, and a strange body that looks like it’s trying to make a sled.
The sleds and wagons pulled by the buffalo, or rather, the strange mounts resembling carts, certainly seemed very suitable for use in the muddy ground here.
Four of each were prepared, and there were only two more riders in the wagon except for the driver.
The local governor did not go out directly this time, but a low-level official who manages the warehouse went out to guide the way, and Yuria and Roa were forced to. All of them had to ride in different wagons.
Roa, who rode in each wagon with a low-level official, felt a little uneasy for some reason, but he tried to calm her down that everything would be alright.
It was a slow ride, only about the size of a wagon, and since it was riding at close distances, it seemed like it would be possible to take action if something happened.
That’s how YuRia was in the first carriage. In the second wagon, there is a patrolman who drove her boat from the royal palace of Yeon. Chung in the third carriage. The fourth wagon was ridden by Loa.
‘Why, of course, on the farthest carriage from Yuria… ‘
No. Are you okay. It will be fine. Even if there is a little distance in broad daylight, this distance is enough to be seen.
So comforting her, Loa tried to soothe her anxious mind.
“Hey!!”
The driver grabbed the ox’s reins and shook it, and the buffalo began to move forward, and the loa sighed again.
He couldn’t even understand himself.
Why are you so anxious?
Meanwhile, it’s been a while since the precious guests have left. The prefect had the feeling that he was missing something.
The district magistrate pondered over what he had missed, and at that moment his face went white.
“Ah, oops!!”
Big, big deal!
To the others, all of his thoughts were conveyed properly, but in one place, the possibility that the story was conveyed incorrectly was very high.
No, I would have misunderstood nine times out of ten.
The word ‘excellent guest’.
It was a code that symbolized a very high-end product in the slang used with the people who were trafficking.
“This, what the fuck! What the hell!?”
In a panic, he hurried out and climbed onto his boat.
“Oh, hurry up and leave! We have to go up to the delta as soon as possible!”
His heart was pounding.
Late. Nine out of ten this is late.
All of a sudden, the place where they were located was located closer to the wagon road than the waterway, and among the criminal groups he looked after, they were the ones who were the farthest away.
“Damn! Damn! Damn!”
Please, please, I shouldn’t have touched it yet! I hope you haven’t started yet!!
It is not at the level of losing a valuable customer.
This was a major accident that could physically blow off his neck if he did something wrong.
“Aaaaah! This, what about this!”
I urged the ship as quickly as possible, but there was no way it would come out without speed.
The speed of the ship, which was not normally considered slow, felt like it had become too slow today, and the local governor began to cry.
Something. I had to think of a way.
Any way to survive…
