Episode 604: Opening of Heaven – Controversy over the First Law (7)
The story about the limited edition also reached King Sejong.
“Huh~.”
Sejong’s reaction upon hearing the story was simr to Kim Jeom’s.
“There are so many rich people in this smallnd.”
Hwang Hee bowed her head in response to King Sejong’s words.
“Doesn’t this mean that Your Majesty’s efforts so far have not been in vain?”
In response to Hwang Hui’s words, all the ministers and officials added their words in unison.
“What the Prime Minister said is truly correct!”
King Sejong, who listened to the words of the Hyang and the ministers, said with a humble smile.
“Hehe~. “It is really difficult to answer because not only the crown prince but also the ministers are all full of praise.”
“I can’t praise you enough!”
The mayor and ministers were sincere.
Not since the founding of the country, or even since the time of Goguryeo of the old Three Han Dynasties and Balhae of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, has it upied such arge river area. It wasn’t just the area. The fact that its name became known not only to the Ming and Japanese but also to the far western regions was long before its predecessor, Goryeo, which was famous for its trade.
Hwang Hee spoke to King Sejong with all her sincerity.
“I am sincerely looking forward to the day when we will use the word ‘Your Majesty’ instead of ‘Your Majesty’.”
At Hwang Hee’s words, the Hyang and the ministers nodded at the same time.
* * *
Considering the current situation, there was no problem in calling me ‘Your Majesty’. However, since the title was not formally requested, the word ‘Your Highness’ was used continuously. I was afraid that if I used it in advance, I would be used of fraud, so I refrained from using it. Therefore, the country name ‘Joseon’ continued to be used, and if people did not want to use it, it was simply called ‘nation’.
In principle, these noblemen were atheists and oppressed the shamanism of shamans, iming that they believed in supernatural gods.
However, in the face of aplete transformation from a small country to an empire, they had to be as careful as possible and refrain from doing so.
This was the same for the people.
I was trying my best to avoid saying anything for fear of being criticized.
* * *
“So, did you set a date to submit the memorial service?”
When King Sejong asked about the date of the opening ceremony, Hwang Hee answered right away.
“yes. I caught it with clear light. In particr, this year’s Cheongmyeong falls on April 5th, so it was judged to be optimal because it avoided the number 4.”
“It’s good because it’s neither too early nor toote. Let’s prepare with all our sincerity.”
“I follow your orders!”
And the officer who recorded all of this added the following:
-… So the Prime Minister and other ministers all responded when the Prime Minister ordered them to do their best in preparing for the ceremony.
The officer says:
There is not much time left until the official title request is finally made. Since ancient times, it has been customary to wear a horse to a luxurious event, so you should be especially careful in your words and actions.
Anyway, Jeongeum is really useful. It is difficult to use the word ‘Your Majesty’, so I used ‘Sang’, but ‘Your Majesty’ is even more difficult. However, it is really good because it can be usedfortably with Jeongeum.
By the way, when will the matter regarding resale discounts be decided? There are quite a few things to buy.

After giving the order, Sejong changed the topic.
“I digress for a moment, but are there so many people who want to get a limited editionw book?”
“It’s over 20 times more.”
“Huh~. Are there so many people interested in thew?”
At King Sejong’s question, the local government officials all stopped talking and looked at King Sejong.
“Why are you doing that?”
In response to Sejong’s question, Hyang came forward as a representative.
“Are they really looking for the limited edition to learn thew?”
Sejong answered Hyang’s question with a small smile.
“Is the handwritten record between you and me so valuable?”
In response to Sejong’s question, Hyang silently nodded. And the ministers all had the same thought.
‘No matter how much I think about this, it seems intentional. ‘You’re secretly bragging about it, right?’
Kim added, forcibly preventing those thoughts froming out in words.
“Of those who came forward to purchase the limited edition, many of them said they would purchase all three types.”
“huh? All 3 types? why?”
I answered King Sejong’s question with a scent.
“This is because the values of all three types are different.”
Hyang shouted inwardly at Kim Jeom’s words.
‘The instincts of collectors transcend time and space!’
Sejong’s wedding, Hyang’s wedding, and the father and son’s joint wedding all had their own value. Considering collection value, it was best to get all three types rather than just one.
“Hmm…”
Sejong thought for a moment and pointed out the problem.
“I will not take issue with the fact that people are flocking to me based on my actions rather than the contents of thew. If they had tried to make an issue of that, they wouldn’t have thought of releasing the limited edition itself. However, the problem is that more people than expected came forward. “It is certain that there will be people who will express their dissatisfaction, so we need a solution to this.”
At King Sejong’s point, all the ministers and ministers nodded.
‘I can’t help it. This is a time when you can’t even dream of making online reservations. Then what would be good….’
Minister of Finance and Economy Park Jong-woo opened his mouth as he searched for a suitable method.
“How about holding an auction like we did when we sold the Tripitaka Koreana to Japan in the past?”
“Auction?”
“Auction…”
“I think it’s okay…”
When the method ‘auction’ was mentioned, the ministers nodded. But Sejong shook his head.
“Auctions are good, but if done wrong, there can be too muchpetition. Let’s say there is someone who throws all his money to buy aw book. Since you have thrown away all your wealth, isn’t it certain that you will sell it again with a markup to get it back? “Then thew code will be treated like an article floating around in the market.”
The ministers and governors nodded to King Sejong’s point. In particr, the scent resonated strongly with me.
‘It’s impossible for there to be no resellers.’
As various solutions were being proposed, Hyang expressed his opinion.
“How about doing it this way?”
“Tell me!”

Five dayster, rooms were opened in government offices and monopoly offices throughout Joseon.
-Inform the rules regarding the purchase of limited editions of the firstw.
the former. Sales of limited edition copies are conducted through auction.
second. Anyone participating in the auction must meet the following qualifications:
-A person with wealth worth more than 1,000 gold coins.
-A person who can submit the previous ount bnce record and the tax payment record from the National Tax Service to prove this.
party. If the price offered by the person who took the limited edition exceeds 1/5 of his or her assets, it cannot be sold.
affection. Anyone who obtains a limited edition item at an auction will not be permitted to participate in future auctions.
radish. Anyone who obtains a legal code through an auction cannot transfer or sell it to another person for 20 years. However, an exception is made in the case of inheritance due to death.
energy. If the limited editionw book is transferred or sold to another person after 20 years, the person who will receive thew book is limited to those who meet the standards recorded in item. However, this standard is adjusted based on the price at the relevant time.
The people who read the room in the government office and the monopoly nodded their heads.
“So, those who are thinking of making a profit with the limited edition should stay out.”
“yes.”
“You’re saying that only really rich people attack you.”
“But can you exin in more detail what is written in the reporter use?”
“therefore. As time goes by, if you have at least a thousand gold coins, you will raise your standards even higher. Well, in my case, it doesn’t apply even after 20 years…”
“I guess it’s just you…”
While the people were nodding their heads, the rich people were gathering their will to fight.
“If we can get our hands on this limited edition, we can spread the word about how great our family is!”
“I’ll show these quick-get-rich-quick beggars who the real rich are!”
On the other hand, there were some who hit the ground and regretted it. In the meantime, they were using clever tricks to reduce taxes and grab the money in kind rather than on the battlefield.
“Holy shit! “It was a golden opportunity to obtain real Mujibo treasure!”
“If I correct it right now…”
“Then I will be used of delusion of military power and all my assets will be gone!”

What Hyang proposed was a kind of ‘VVIP service’.
This was a story told by an acquaintance of the 21st century.
My friend, who was a child from an ordinary family, earned a high ie as his startup seeded. It was natural that as ie increased, spending increased.
One day, such an acquaintance told Hyang this story.
“hey! In my life, I never thought that the day woulde when I would receive a text message from a credit cardpany inviting me to a car test drive! It’s not a domestic car, but a really expensive imported car brand! It was added that ‘If there is a specific model of the brand you would like to test drive, we will prepare it for you!’ I had a regr card, not a tinum or ck one! “I can’t imagine what real VVIP or VIP service is like!”
In that memory, the scent found a solution.
After finishing the exnation, Hyang added this.
“Those who naturally have a lot want to show off that they are different from those who do not have much. However, if you brag carelessly, it is the human heart of the world that you will receive more criticism or ridicule than praise.”
King Sejong and the ministers nodded at Hyang’s words. Hyang strengthened his voice at the reaction of King Sejong and the ministers.
“But if they pass these established standards and be qualified, it will be the best option for them because people around them will know without having to raise their voice. “Perhaps they will gather to get the qualifications to participate, let alone whether they will get thew book or not.”
Sejong, who was nodding his head at Hyang’s words, pointed out the problem.
“If that happens, wouldn’t it deviate from the initial goal of appropriately adjusting thepetition rate and avoiding excessivepetition?”
Hyang clearly answered King Sejong’s point.
“That’s why we added an additional use. If you offer an amount that exceeds 20% of your assets, you will not give it up at all. And there’s another good thing. “Isn’t it a good thing that the National Tax Service can take another look at the eligibility criteria?”
“aha!”
At Hyang’s words, Kim Jeom and Park Jong-woo hit their knees.
That’s how the room above came to be.

One day in March, when spring is in full swing.
The auction was finally held.
An auction house was set up in a general entertainment hall located next to Hanseong’s bell tower, and the richest people from all over the country gathered there.
And the residents of Hanseong gathered to see the rich people gathered together.
“Hey! Even the outfit is different!”
“hey! “Look at the pavilion on that hat!”
“What about the hat string?”
People eximed in exmation as they saw the clothes and essories of rich peopleing in to attend the auction. Not only that, but also the craftsmen who made essories and those who were somewhat stylish looked intently at the outfits and essories of the rich.
“Rich people buy things like that…”
“Wow… that’s the pattern…”
* * *
While the auction was in full swing, four people approached Hyang, who was working at Seunghwadang.
“What’s going on?”
In response to Hyang’s question, Han Myeong-hoe appeared as the representative of the four-member group.
“I havee because I have something to ask of you.”
“jean? What request? “Tell me.”
At Hyang’s words, the four men brought out the Buddhistw books that had been left behind and held them out.
“Give me that sugyeol…”
Hearing the request of the four people, the Hyangin was dazed for a moment and then red at Han Myeong-hoe.
“Is that you?”
“….”
“Give it to me.”
“I am devastated!”
