The UK’s Galaxy Guild was a guild that entered into an illegal business, realizing that the snow white fruit would make money from the early days.
Of course, the Galaxy Guild was able to amass enormous wealth as the high price was formed in order to leave the maximum margin as it was involved in illegal activities, and the upper classes were also willing to pay the money.
Of course, other guilds besides the Galaxy Guild also had a lot of competitors, such as some jumping in or individuals working on a small scale, but it didn’t matter because the supply could not keep up with the demand anyway.
At that time, the Galaxy Guild, which had accumulated so much money, gathered more and more hunters and raised their heat to produce more snow-white fruits.
A new world called Korea unfolded in front of the Galaxy Guild.
The Galaxy’s guild leader John mumbled as he recalled that time.
“It was huge.”
Unbelievably low price.
It was later found out that Korea had adhered to this pricing policy from the very beginning.
At first, I did not understand that it is illegal and that suppliers induce such low-margin policies from the beginning in a market where there is a lot of money, but now I can understand for sure.
Korea has been expanding its market through this low-margin policy.
As if they had expected the market for snow white fruit to grow like this.
Anyway, thanks to this, Korea has created a large and solid market that is hard to find in any other country in the world.
Naturally, as the market was completed, supply and demand were also stable.
Then John thought.
Rather than mobilize hunters to roast and boil civil servants and produce snow white fruit, I think it is more reasonable to just buy it in Korea and sell it to the UK.
After all, in the UK, snow white fruit is still being traded at a high price.
And the idea paid off.
The demand, which has always been suffering from insufficient supply, absorbed the snow white fruit imported by Galaxy like a sponge sucking water, bringing enormous wealth to Galaxy.
Of course, there are now a lot of competitors, and conversely, the price of snow white fruit in the UK has stabilized, so the margin has decreased.
“… Come to think of it now, Korea is really smart.”
John thought that perhaps the reason for sticking to the low price policy was to expand the market but also to eliminate competitors.
That’s because, as the imported snow white fruit from Korea became the mainstream, there was virtually no organization that produced snow white fruit in the UK.
Of course, as the supply line has been reduced to one, the Galaxy and the British guilds are now forced to look at the Korean side.
Still, John wasn’t too concerned.
“things will work out.”
If Korea had taken advantage of something as the only supply line, it would have paid a different price in response to it.
If you work hard in Korea, you can go there and produce snow white fruit again.
Because British dungeons don’t disappear anywhere.
Anyway, John, who had established a relationship with Korea one day, received a request from a British chaebol family, his regular business partner.
That is, can you save the Black Blessing?
John said with a look of anticipation.
“I asked for it while being dubious, did you really mean it?”
John immediately asked if he could get a black blessing from Korea, and soon he received a call saying that he had bought something from Korea.
As soon as he heard the news, John flew on a plane to Korea.
Then the subordinate knocked on the door and said:
“You have come.”
“Five! Come in!”
At that, the door opened and a Korean man entered the room.
John said welcoming with his arms wide open.
“Come on. Mr. Kim!”
“Long time no see. zone.”
It was the merchant who was in charge of trading John’s Snow White.
“Can I see some stuff?”
At John’s words, the merchant smiled and said.
“You seem to be in a lot of hurry. You want me to show you things as soon as you see them.”
“Of course it has to be urgent. Because the client is a great person who is in a hurry for every minute and every second.”
“good.”
The merchant took the envelope out of his pocket and said.
“30 Black Blessing Seeds.”
“30! wonderful!!”
John said, checking the inside of the envelope.
“Are you sure?”
“At least we don’t play around with things.”
Then John nodded.
“That’s what I know best than anyone else.”
John looked down at the bag and said.
“If only I had this… .”
John grinned at the thought of extorting money from the client.
But then he thought with a troubled expression on his face.
‘How much should I pay?’
The situation is completely different from Beksul Fruit, where international trade is actively carried out mainly in Korea and the international market price has been established.
There are a lot of hunters who lose their lives while entering the dungeon to save it, and those who want it are in a severe imbalance between supply and demand, who want to save it even if they pay more.
In fact, it’s a level worth calling.
The merchant said to John, who was so worried about the price.
“How about $100,000 each?”
“100,000 dollars?!”
The price is much cheaper than expected, equivalent to 1.1 billion Korean won.
John smiled brightly.
“At that price, I will buy everything!”
“Unfortunately, that’s all I got right now.”
“Then let me know as soon as you find more. I’ll run right away!”
* * *
Im Seong-han, a merchant in the black market, nodded and said.
“All right.”
The reason why the organization offered the seed price at a low price was because it was a sample.
“Instead, there are conditions. Sell all these seeds only to the person who requested them. If you don’t sell them by ten or one by one, you shouldn’t.”
Will the client, who felt completely freed from neurological diseases for a month through 30 seeds, be satisfied with that?
Absolutely not.
A client who doesn’t want to go back to the old days will work through the Galaxy to save the seeds no matter how much money it costs.
Of course, Galaxy will do a favor to the organization.
It is not too late to go and receive the money then.
Because there were plenty of excuses anyway.
“Also, the fact that we obtained seeds from us must not be known to the outside world.”
At the same time, this gives an overwhelming advantage to security.
Even in order to receive a stable supply, we have no choice but to remain silent about the Galaxy, clients, and seeds.
“If either of these two conditions is violated, we cannot supply any more seeds. Even if I don’t tell you why, you’ll know, right?”
John nodded and said.
“Of course I do.”
There is only one way to get this amount so quickly at this point.
Extorting it through the guild contracted with the Jungin group.
Of course, if this is known, the contract with the guild will automatically cancel the contract with the Jungin group.
In that case, of course, the supply would have to be stopped.
“It’s a really hard-to-find item, but especially considering the relationship between Galaxy and Guild Leader John! It is only given to John Guild Master. I believe that there is no one who will disregard our sincerity.”
“of course. Mr. Im! Trust me. We will make sure the client joins speed.”
“good. Shall we start right away?”
Im Seong-han, who came out after being paid 3 million dollars for handing over the seeds, murmured.
“How the hell did the organization get this?”
Jeongin’s group is known for being extremely thorough when it comes to dungeon raids, though they don’t know anything about it.
But to break through the defense of the Jung-in group and save this.
The power of the organization is to the point of admiration.
“Well, if you do what I tell you, it’s over.”
Because Im Seong-han received 300 million won from this transaction.
Lim Seong-han said with a smirk.
“Because this is why I can’t leave our organization.”
Im Seong-han looked at his subordinate merchant and said.
“Where next?”
“It’s France.”
“Okay, let’s go.”
Im Seong-han, who got into the car and finished a deal with a French customer, utters the same lines as he did with British Galaxy.
“It’s a really hard-to-find item. Especially considering the relationship with Jean Clé! I am only giving it to Jean Claire.”
Black Blessing began to be sold all over the world through the black market.
Everyone mistakenly thought they were getting a special supply.
* * *
This is similar to how I was given concessions to domestic influential people in exchange for a stable supply.
The only difference is that the price is monetary.
Anyway, black market merchants who initially supplied 30 days at a low price, snatched them completely, and then continued to raise prices due to lack of supply.
“Money is pouring in.”
As a result, cash is accumulating in the organization at an incredible rate.
In terms of short-term net profit alone, it is at a level that surpasses the fruit of Snow White.
“Good, good.”
As for the cost, the hunter’s labor to catch monsters and feed the seeds, and the transportation cost to transport them.
In fact, it was said that most of the sales were net profit.
“Let’s produce more.”
Once they eat money through stable supply against chaebols who do not feel bad about money, and when production increases, the scope gradually expands downwards.
Then, finally, when the cultivation method is known, unlike other companies that are just starting out, large-scale cultivation through overwhelming quantities to the general public.
It literally wipes everything from top to bottom.
Then I hear people’s voices outside the window.
“President! Chairman Jung! please!!”
It was the people who wanted the black blessing.
It boasts a crazy price range, disappears as soon as it comes out on the market and disappears before even looking at it, and it is difficult for even the chaebols to see the real thing.
As a result, it was the Jung-in group and I that people who did not have money to buy or even had the opportunity to come to as a last resort.
I frowned and said.
“What do you mean by looking at me for something I don’t have?”
Blessings are blessings, but blessings are given only to the rich, especially to the overwhelming chaebol.
But that’s the beginning of anything, isn’t it?
To put it bluntly, even if we release all the amount we are growing and exporting overseas, it is an insufficient amount considering the total number of patients.
“After all, the black tiger was the answer.”
Even now, if the price is too high, people will be in trouble, and since it is not an officially recognized product, it is selling in a detour, like buying a stake in the holding company from Aram Group, and taking profits.
It may be later, but for now, it is best to sell it through Heukho.
At that moment, the voice of an employee drying people was heard.
“We haven’t even gotten a sales license yet.”
“Didn’t you sell to the chaebols!!”
“It is just a rumor.”
Everyone in the world has circumstances, and it is impossible to listen to all of them.
How much more, strangers?
I’m sorry, but I’m not interested.
Like most people in a previous life had never helped me or cared about me.
But what… .
“How many people can you rescue?”
After all, if you want to go through the government’s deliberation, you need a test subject to prove the efficacy of the drug.
Also, if we leave the selection of the target to the government, people’s attention will be drawn to the government.
“Yeah, you can do that.”
I put off the troublesome work to the government and I make money.
Then an extension call comes in from the secretary’s office.
“Yes.”
– Chairman, Kim Guild leader of Yangcheon Guild has come to visit.
“Yangcheon Guild?”
Yangcheon Guild was one of the top guilds in Korea that I signed a contract with as a guild that has recently grown rapidly.
Apparently, someone busy hunting in the dungeon came all the way here… .
Once you’re here, I’ll have to see you.
“Come in.”
* * *
“So… .”
I said with a puzzled look.
“Aren’t you going to sell the Black Blessing Seeds?”
During the period of receiving information, all dungeon items are monopolized by the Jeongin group.
It was the sentence specified in the first clause of the contract.
In other words, this is a violation of the contract.
“It’s not that I don’t want to sell. After selling it, I want to buy it back as it is.”
“How is that different from not selling?”
Currently, I have set the price of 500 million won per seed I buy from hunters.
However, the real value of the seeds was not 500 million won, so you may think that I am making a profit, but I haven’t gotten a license yet, and most of all, I’m selling them privately to the chaebols.
In other words, no one can set an exact price.
Besides, I don’t get paid separately for giving information, so I should have that much profit.
So, although all the guilds that signed the contract are dissatisfied with the price, they don’t openly oppose it.
Hue is the goat
Guild leader Kim, who was silent for a moment, said.
“… Then I’ll give you another 300 million each.”
“Are you going to buy it for 800 million?”
I said looking at the guild leader Kim.
“Is there anyone sick at home?”
“My son is sick.”
Also.
Hue is the goat
Guildmaster Kim said, biting his lip.
“I have a rare, incurable disease that slowly paralyzes my body and causes me to die. It is impossible to cure it with modern medicine.”
If it’s such a disease… .
“It will work.”
As soon as I confirmed, the guild leader Kim said in an urgent voice.
“So it is necessary! My son didn’t even go to school. I want to gift my son a daily routine! as soon as possible.”
I said silent for a moment.
“Are you sure you can afford it? This is not a cure.”
“that… that… .”
To prevent the disease from continuing to progress, you should eat every day without skipping a day.
However, if 800 million a day is 24 billion won a month, it is almost 300 billion won a year.
I can’t even sell it at this price.
Of course, in the future, large guilds guild leaders will earn as much as chaebols, but that is only the future, not right now.
“Please, Chairman. please… It doesn’t have to be every day. If I don’t have enough money, I want to help as much as possible.”
That’s right.
I’ll have to stop any further progress.
‘I’m the guild leader of the Yangcheon Guild… .’
The desperate guild leader of the upper guild.
Although it is a good target, there are still people who are more coveted than the leader of the guild Kim.
According to my future plan, if the production increases a little more and the price falls, then it is a target that is worth thinking about.
However.
‘The Black Tiger is different.’
The value of a hunter who is loyal to the Black Tiger cannot be measured in money.
Not to mention even if his son was the guild leader of a higher guild held hostage.
Besides, the black blessing has no choice but to plummet as the cultivation method is known.
So now, I’m going to owe the guild leader Kim through the black tiger in advance.
I thought for a while and said.
“sorry.”
Hue is the goat
Guild leader Kim jumped up from his seat at my refusal and said,
“Why?!”
“First of all, we didn’t even get government approval. But this probably won’t make sense to you. I’ll just be honest. It is a matter of equity.”
“Equality?”
“People who want black blessings are widespread. Among them, there are chaebols who come with billions of dollars. But I can’t satisfy them all. In such a situation, if only the Kim Guild leader is given a benefit, will they stay still?”
“still!!”
I cut off the words of Guild Leader Kim.
“It’s not just that. This is also a contract issue. To be honest, if an overseas guild had been doing this kind of deal, I would have terminated the contract right away. As much as I am disclosing the hard-earned strategy information, I have to make a profit, and the key is to monopolize the product. No exceptions can be made in this situation. If that happens, other guilds will also offer deals on similar terms.”
Hue is the goat
Guild leader Kim said with a desperate expression.
“I will keep it a secret. please… .”
I said with a firm expression.
“As an individual named Jung In-soo, I want to help. But I am the owner of a company that is responsible for the livelihood of many of its employees. It is a position where we have no choice but to think of the company first. sorry.”
* * *
Hue is the goat
Guild leader Kim murmured while stroking the sleeping son’s head.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
As long as there is a black blessing, my son can lead a normal life.
“Wait a minute. After the contract is over, I persuade the guild members… ha.”
Once the contract is over, you can handle whatever you want from the guild, but before that, your son may die of paralysis.
That was the main reason Kim Guildmaster visited Jeong In-soo, but there was one more reason: money.
Now, rich people with nervous system patients in their families want black blessings, both you and I.
Of course, when the contract was over, the guilds would freely sell the black blessing they had obtained, and the price was sure to exceed the 500 million won set by Jeong In-soo.
If that happens, the guild leader Kim also has to pay that amount to the guild when he wants to own the goods obtained by the guild according to the guild principle, and the price must be at a level that even the guild leader cannot afford.
But now, the price is tied at 500 million won due to the contract with Jung In-soo.
If Jeong In-soo sells it back to him, he might be able to buy it at a much lower price.
This was the reason Kim Guildmaster visited Jeong In-soo.
In order to increase the chances of surviving the son even a little more and buy it even a little cheaper.
“Chairman Jeong In-soo. This dog-like child.”
I’m not asking for all of them, but they’re asking me to sell only the amount I bought from the Yangcheon Guild, but I’m refusing to do so.
In my mind, I want to grab you by the neck and threaten you right away.
Offer a black blessing.
But the opponent is Jung In-soo.
Besides, if he does something wrong, he loses his son’s last hope.
“I need money.”
Whenever the Black Blessing is released in the market, you need money that you can buy right away.
Hue is the goat
Guild leader Kim was worried about money for the first time since becoming a hunter.
“I thought you wouldn’t have to worry about this anymore.”
The guilt of not being able to do anything to his dying son weighs heavily on Kim Guild Leader.
Hue is the goat
Guild leader Kim said with a firm expression.
“I’ll try something Daddy. somehow.”
* * *
“I went.”
“Good work.”

Most guilds sell some of the dungeon items they collect as stolen goods on the black market to avoid special taxes, but the Firebird Guild has a memory of being pressured by the government as an excuse, so they kept the ratio up to a certain level.
To the extent that it can be accounted for internally.
The Yangcheon Guild is also a new dungeon, so it is tied to a contract, but like a high-level guild, it had a significant number of low-level hunters and sold some of the dungeon goods they obtained on the black market to avoid taxes.
“Did you talk?”
At the words of Guild Leader Kim, an executive in charge of trading with the black market said.
“Payback is possible.”
“okay?”
No matter how hard you hunt, your income is limited.
Then you have no choice but to increase your income within the limits.
That method was a payback transaction with the black market.
Instead of selling dungeon goods on the black market at a slightly cheaper price than usual, sticking the profits into the back pocket of the guild leader, not the guild.
It was, of course, a robbery.
“By the way, the guild leader. This is too dangerous. When the guild members find out… .”
“know. So I was just asking you to check it out. Just thinking, just thinking.”
“By the way, why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
“… Of course, it’s about money.”
Then the officer said with a surprised expression.
“money? Are you a guild leader? No, because the guild leader lacks money… .”
An executive who may have to deal with the black market and payback on his behalf.
In the end, the guild leader had no choice but to explain his situation to the executive.
“Ah, so… .”
“Yes, I need a black blessing. as much as possible.”
“uh? Wait a minute.”
At that time, the official said with a long and thoughtful expression.
“I went to the merchant and overheard the merchant talking on the phone with someone else. By the way… .”
The executive looked at the guild leader Kim and said.
“They say black blessings blah blah blah blah.”
Then the guild leader Kim said with a surprised expression.
“What?”
“The timing is a bit tricky, but the person on the phone with the merchant said it was a black blessing. At that time, the merchant found out that I had come and said we would talk later, but hung up.”
I don’t know how much it’s actually being traded for.
taken from noblemt l
Maybe it just popped out of a normal conversation with someone else.
Because the black blessing is a topic of discussion.
But isn’t the black market a place where everything is handled?
Whether illegal or legal.
Besides, it is even more suspicious that he cut it off while looking at the executives.
“where are you.”
“Yes?”
If there is a black blessing on the black market, it may be possible to purchase it at a low price by actively taking advantage of the position of the guild head of the top guild with 300 guild members.
In exchange for protecting the black market or driving the guild’s goods to a specific merchant.
Hue is the goat
Guild leader Kim jumped up from his seat and said.
“Guide me right now. Right Now.”
