Despite the government’s various appeasement measures, the backlash from hunters and companies grew more and more intense.
Strike and press play.
In addition, various rumors spread, and even ordinary citizens began to support such hunters and companies.
“I heard you wake up more easily if you are near the gate?”
“It’s great if you wake up.”
“It’s been a few months, but if you see no monsters coming out, isn’t it safe from a safety standpoint?”
All of the circumstances turned against the government, with some hasty civic groups approaching the civilian-controlled area and even holding protests to lift the control.
Then, one incident happened.
-Today, the United States officially announced that all areas within the San Francisco Gate have been explored.
The US has finally attacked all areas of the dungeon for the first time in the world.
The contents of the San Francisco Dungeon released by the United States were as follows.
The land, about 4 times the size of Yeouido, is as if it had been cut into an opaque wall, and monsters were constantly being created.
The opaque wall blocking the four directions is impossible to destroy or pass through by any means and method.
Those who vaguely thought that the gate was a passageway to the other world were turned upside down.
“Release civilian control!!”
“Release!!”
300 protesters approaching a civilian-controlled area.
Protesters chant to a man’s slogan.
“Give us a chance too!!”
“Give me a chance!!”
Watching it from afar, I said with a smile.
“Everyone is working hard. Very nice to see.”
The completion of the capture of the dungeon was an event that shook the foundation of safety, the most important justification for the claim that the government should control the dungeon.
Of course, the problem is that you don’t know what else lies beyond the opaque wall, but the point is that you see the end first.
In other words, the argument that the government always insists that you do not know when or what other variables will come out is losing its power little by little.
“Sooner or later, the hunters will get up completely.”
That’s the moment I’ve been waiting for.
Direct entry into the private dungeon.
The continuing conflict between the Hunters and the government.
Eventually, the complaints of the accumulated hunters exploded.
“From today we will never enter the gate until the government grants our request!!”
The Hunter group boycott has occurred.
And it wasn’t just limited to Korea.
The situation of the hunters whose dungeons were controlled by the government was similar.
What.
In the case of a dictatorship such as China, in the early stages of coercive action, such as mobilizing pro-government awakeners to suppress force, when the number of hunters increases beyond the control range, I raise my arms and legs, but that’s not my concern.
Anyway, the Korean government somehow tried to persuade the Hunters for various reasons, but the Hunters were stubborn.
When the government did not comply with their request, the situation was getting worse, such as going into the dungeon and holding a sit down.
The reason Hunters could come out so strong was that the government had no proper means to restrain them.
There is no authority to force the hunters, and even if they force it in, there is no way for the government to use its hands as the hunters were laying GoStop in it.
In addition, public opinion is still favorable to hunters who have a hero image.
In the end, negotiations, which had been stagnant for several weeks, entered a full-fledged tug-of-war when the government decided to enter the private sector and acknowledge ownership of some of the items from the dungeon.
-The government demanded 50% of the goods coming out of the gate, while the Awakeneds claim that ownership is entirely theirs if they pay only 10% of the VAT.
I saw the news and said with a smile.
“Ahh. Did that argument come out at this time?”
In the end, the negotiation ends with the government purchasing only the crystals according to the international market price and recognizing 100% ownership of the rest of the goods, but special taxation of 25% of the sales amount.
As time goes by, the crystals are completely released in the market, but that 25% tax has always been one of the Hunters’ complaints in the future.
Why do they only have to pay special taxes when they only receive VAT like everyone else?
Of course, there has always been a movement to eliminate the special tax, but in the future, one of the main sources of tax revenue in Korea is the special tax, is there any way to accept it?
And around that time, the sense of deprivation that ordinary people felt toward Hunter was so severe that public opinion was not as good as it is now.
Anyway, now that the negotiations are over, the scope of civilian control will be reduced and you will be able to legally purchase the items brought by the hunters.
I said with a smile.
“Do you want to start moving?”
“ha.”
CEO Kim, who runs a container house manufacturing company, was dying every day.
How much money is sold at the gate, and the money is released on the market.
Rent and labor costs are falling apart, but the economy is so sluggish and prices soared that people close their wallets, which prevents business.
Before that, there was a lot of demand for simple villas, so the income wasn’t bad, but when the economy gets tough, people tend to cut down on those luxuries first.
Thanks to this, only the pre-made stock continues to pile up.
“Well?”
At that time, CEO Kim saw a young man approaching the office.
At best, CEO Kim said with a sad expression on the appearance of a young man in his mid-20s.
“Did you come to see me again?”
There used to be quite a boom among the young people, so there were quite a few people who came to see the container house like that from time to time.
CEO Kim sighed and got up from his seat.
“You still have to do business.”
do you know

Maybe a customer who came to buy a small container house to reduce the monthly rent.
CEO Kim opened the office door and smiled broadly with a business smile.
“welcome! This is Jane House! Is there anything you are looking for?”
Then the young man looked at the container houses piled up in the yard and said,
“Do you have any small houses? About the size of a studio room.”
CEO Kim smiled brightly, thinking that he might be a real guest.
“Sure! Some of them are already made, and you can even customize them if you wish! Come this way.”
CEO Kim guided us to the one-room container house loaded in the yard.
“This is our representative product, and it is popular because of its low price and clean design.”
“How much is it?”
CEO Kim said with a slight glance.
“In this case, it is now on sale for 150.”
“150 is too expensive.”
Even for a container house, 1.5 million won is expensive.
CEO Kim felt disappointing, but he did not forget the sales spirit.
“If you buy now, we can negotiate up to 130.”
“I don’t look at design. only function. You just need a function. Appearance doesn’t matter at all as long as the minimum conditions for a person to live are met.”
Then, CEO Kim sighed and said.
“ha. There is no such house in our production lineup…”
“Did you say that production orders are possible? How long can you do it?”
If I had received such a spell before the dungeon crisis, I would have kicked them out right away, but now there are no customers and only flies are flying.
It wasn’t really in a position to cover the fire.
After thinking for a while, CEO Kim said.
“I think we can do it up to 100 million won.”
“It’s 1 million won… Then, if I buy 10 houses, can you give me a discount?”
Then, Kim’s eyes lit up.
“Ten?”
It’s clearly a spell that won’t cost money, but if the amount increases, the story will change again.
“If it’s 10, I’ll give you up to 970,000 won.”
“What if I don’t need a design and just need a floor on which to lie down? I don’t even need a window… No, I don’t have a fluorescent lamp, but I still need a window. Anyway, still 97?”
“Ummm…then I’ll do it until 95.”
Then the young man smiled and said.
“Then what if it’s 100?”
At this point, CEO Kim became suspicious that he was playing a prank on him.
“Are you with me right now…”
“Are you kidding me? no. I’m seriously asking.”
“Then until 93…”
“Note that.”
Young In-soo Jung said with a smile.
“That 100 may become 500 or 1,000 in the future. So as cheap as possible. And a lot. Did you know?”
The sluggish negotiations were eventually concluded with the government largely accepting the hunters’ requirements.
The government buys all the crystals, and the hunters are allowed to own the rest, but a special tax of 25% is imposed.
Even hunters who do not contract with the government agree to take the risk, wear the equipment provided by the government, grant entry to the dungeon under the same conditions as the government-affiliated hunters, and even drastically reduce the civilian control area. it was open
People cheered.
“Finally open!”
“Let’s take a look at the gate, too. do you know Will I wake up too!”
People who were outside the civilian control area chanted hurrah, and dozens of trucks suddenly appeared.
“uh?”
While people were panicking, some trucks stopped in the middle of the road, and workers rushed in and started to hit the fence in an instant.
Confused people approached the workers and said,
“excuse me.”
“Yes.”
“What are you doing?”
“I don’t know. Are you just coming to work?”
Then a young man came up to me with a smile and said,
“What is it? It’s a sign that it’s private property.”
It was Jeong In-soo.
I showed the map to the workers and said,
“Fence everything from here to there. oh The road was rented out by the military, so I leave it to be used. Please block everything tightly. This is the entrance, so please make it a passage for people to pass through.”
“Yes!”
I then spoke to the trucks that had loaded the container house.
“The container house is over there.”
I said, pointing my finger at the end of the reduced civilian control area.
“Please spread it in 4 rows along the road over there.”
Then the truck driver looked at him slightly and said,
“Soldiers are guarding the front…”
“it’s okay. are you okay. Beyond that control area over there, it’s all mine anyway.”
Although the control area has been reduced, it still includes part of my land.
First of all, unfortunately, there is no other choice but to place the container house closest to the gate.
I said applauding.
“now! Move!”
“Why do you want to come to this country town? Isn’t Seoul comfortable?”

My friend was bruised at the words of the man who was driving.
“you idiot. Isn’t this the first time control has been lifted? All the awakened people would have flocked to Seoul, but the more we do this, the more we have to target a niche market.”
“is it? Wouldn’t it be less dangerous if there were more people instead?”
“Yes, but the competition will be fierce. is not it? If it’s a gate in a rural town like this, you can catch monsters at the entrance and run away to the gate when it’s dangerous.”
So I got into the car and went to the Dangjin Gate, the man driving said.
“···hey. Didn’t I say that it was a paddy field with nothing here?”
Then my friend on the phone said.
“It did. why?”
“Then what the hell is that?”
“What?”
The friend who raised his head at the man’s words said with a puzzled expression.
“What kind of crazy… is that?”
Containers lined up in a row and one of the containers facing the civilian-controlled area at the end had this written on a colorful banner.
‘Buy the highest price of gate goods’
