(This story has nothing to do with the original history of a country.)
The monopoly of trading carried out by some merchants is starting to be unsettling. Not only did they buy goods at low prices and resell them at high prices, they also smuggled illegal goods from the Qing State and Nippon.
However, there is a mafia that is far scarier than the mafia in the market, those inside the palace, and eating away at Joseon from inside.
