Dalian is a city only an hour away by plane from Korea.
The port was also well developed, so it was optimized for importing goods into Korea.
Centering around this place, we collect goods from all over China and send them to Korea.
Unlike Korea, China is not immune to my unit price fight, so it’s good to play with it, and it’s a lot of money, so you can make a lot of money.
It is an attractive market in many ways.
Of course, this was only the beginning.
There was a D-class dungeon in China, and snow white fruit had been supplied.
Of course, there must be a secret handling of snow white fruit somewhere.
Those brilliant CCP officials cannot give up their heavenly taste.
‘They’re secretly supplying it somewhere and eating it.’
The snow white fruit is smuggled into Korea.
Of course, I can’t go all out on this, so I’ll have to find the source and then have someone else contact me.
A joint venture with the Ssangho Guild was a stepping stone for that.
I said to Jaejin Lee who was standing next to me.
“Jaejin. Just sit next to it. Do not stand behind.”
When I arrived at the restaurant with Yang-Ho Baek, Jae-Jin Lee stood behind me so naturally.
“I am comfortable here.”
“Just sit. Let’s have a comfortable meal together.”
Jaejin Lee, who had been quiet for a while at my words, took out a chair and sat down next to me.
‘I think that guy is the guild leader of the Jeongin Guild.’
Some Chinese guilds were furious when they said they had caught the first boss monster in Korea, and some Chinese guilds attempted to attack the boss monster and were successful in the end.
Naturally, the Chinese government also proudly announced that fact.
Of course, many hunters lost their lives in the process, but that was an inevitable sacrifice.
Anyway, the Jeongin Guild was nothing less than a guild that luckily stole the first title in China.
Of course, the detailed information was not known unless someone was interested, and that is also the case with Baek Yang-ho.
‘What are you doing?’
However, that did not completely ignore the power of the Jeongin Guild.
In any case, winning the first title means that you have that much ability.
Anyway, the guild leader of such a guild is standing in a standing posture behind him like a subordinate.
At that time, Baek Yang-ho looked at the business card that Jung In-soo had handed over and thought with a sad expression on his face.
‘ah! Jeongin development, Jeongin guild!’
Baek Yang-ho only found out about their relationship.
‘You were the representative of the sponsoring company.’
But that didn’t make it understandable.
‘Do you have no pride as a hunter? It’s pathetic.’
What you do after being awake at the most is like taking care of the rest of the public.
Baek Yang-ho, who is fully enjoying the superior status of Hunter, could not understand Lee Jae-jin at all.
Then Jeong In-soo’s interpreter spoke.
“CEO Jung asks how it would be to set up a joint venture together.”
“A joint venture? What kind of joint venture are you talking about?”
“To put it simply, it is a company that collects dungeon items from China and exports them to Korea.”
At the interpreter’s words, Baek Yang-ho said with a serious expression on his face.
“Ahh. What else do I say?”
Baek Yang-ho, with a displeased expression on his face, said something.
“What?”
“So . . . would that be money?”
“Hmm?”
“Companies that deal with dungeon items are widespread, and even if the unit price falls, it is easy to lose money…”
This guy Jeongin Guild knows nothing about me, though.
“explain it to me please. About the development of a person.”
“Oh.”
smaller than China.
Right now, the number of active hunters here in Dalian alone is close to 4,000.
But the city where 1,600 hunters live and all the markets where those hunters trade are privately owned.
Isn’t this a much bigger person than you think?
‘Is it better than I thought?’
Jung In-soo’s suggestion was simple.
If you pay a unit price in Dangjin, the joint venture will purchase it in China at a slightly lower price and export the collected products to Dangjin.
Although the margin was not high, it was a very stable trading method.
‘It’s a business…’
In fact, as a guild leader, he is living a satisfying life, but like everyone in the world, his greed knows no bounds.
If your business is going well and your income is higher than your main job, a hunter, from then on, you can live comfortably without catching monsters.
“He also said that Jeongin Development has a lot of know-how and information on various equipment development and dungeon attack, so he thinks that collaboration with the Ssangho Guild will bring great mutual benefits.”
“Well···”
Isn’t it a bad suggestion the more you listen to it?
“How much is the investment?”
“They say it’s a 50/50 stake, $5 million each.”
Baek Yang-ho thought for a moment and said.
“good. Let’s try it.”
Through simple coordination, the establishment of a joint venture between Ssangho Guild and Jeongin Development was finally concluded.
“I’m glad it came out easier than I thought.”
If I was too greedy, I thought I’d throw it out right away.
The largest guild in this area?
If so, there is also a second and third guild.
And that’s enough for a business partner.
In other words, the Ssangho Guild was my choice, but there were plenty of substitutes.
Jaejin Lee said in a quiet voice.
“president. That Baek Yang-ho. Can you believe it?”
“Do you believe it?”
I said with a smile.
“I don’t trust people. What do I see and believe in Baek Yang-ho?”
“I wonder if it will become a problem in the future by interfering with management…”
“This company is literally a foothold. Scaffolding. And the footing is…”
I said with a smile.
“You can change it anytime.”
The significance of the existence of this joint venture is established only on the assumption that Dangjin cooperates.
The fact that Baek Yang-ho interferes with the company means that the company runs well and makes money, so his greed moves.
By then, the stake will be worth quite a bit, so sell them all and play around with them like you did in Korea.
At the same time, it must have already been proven through a joint venture that holding hands with me makes money, so even if I reach out my hand, if I do it here and there, they will run away.
I just have to pick one of them and that’s it.
In other words, Dangjin is the absolute best.
“Anyway, work is done, let’s play. You, me, and the Jeongin guild all ran nonstop. Let’s play while we’re abroad.”
Jaejin Lee and Jeongin Guild were having a great time, but even at that moment, I started to wander around Dalian.
I mean, it’s my personality, so I’m not sure what to do to enjoy it.
A market that has arrived.
“This is a fake street.”
“Wow···”
Every store is full of all kinds of luxury brands, but they are all fake.
“The most famous thing on this street is the Class A fakes. They are made with such precision that even experts can’t tell them apart.”
“Aren’t you going to crack down on doing business like this?”
“I don’t know exactly, but it’s not a Chinese brand, so maybe I’m less concerned about it.”
It’s not a local brand anyway, and the market size due to this fake is huge, so the Chinese government won’t be able to use it easily.
In addition, corrupt public security must have played a part.
Illegal fake alleys that you know and don’t know.
It’s exactly the black market I’m aiming for.
“It’s fake…”
If this is introduced into Korea as it is, it will probably be confiscated by the crackdown.
But the fact that it’s a fake is interesting in itself.
“Fake monster by-products.”
A fake that follows expensive items like a tag.
It was the same for dungeon items such as monster by-products.
In a previous life, Korea was relatively good, but most of the Third World countries suffered from this fake.
“I’m attracted…”
Of course, he did not intend to make fake dungeon goods and distribute them in the market.
You can’t destroy the market itself just to make a few more bucks.
It is not only detrimental to me, but also dangerous.
But in terms of market disruption, nothing is more effective than this.
For example, it is possible to increase the size of the transaction by replacing some of the goods imported through a joint venture with fakes.
Or something like this is possible.
It sells things through the back door through Daehyun, and at the same time fills the warehouse with counterfeit goods as much as the insufficient amount.
So, on the surface, it seems that I still have the object.
Depending on how you use it, it has enough value as a weapon.
“Is there any way to know where this is made?”
“It will be difficult. In any case, it is illegal, so it must be hidden somewhere, but there is no way for outsiders like us to know about it.”
It’s just like the external crackdown team is unable to root out the black market.
“Ummm…”
What should I do?
Approach as a guest?
Let’s think about the black market in Dangjin.
I thought for a moment, then shook my head and said.
“no. Not even with this.”
You tell the merchant to buy it in bulk, so please connect it with your superiors?
What crazy merchant can tell you where to eat?
Just tell him to buy it.
“If only I could get one fake craftsman…”
They would set up a factory and make fake monster by-products and goods.
I thought for a while and said.
“yes? for a moment.”
Do you really need to find a fake craftsman?
It’s enough to just pay a lot of money to someone like a designer or a seamstress who worked on it and hire them to make fakes.
It must have been that most of the fake factories were made that way in the first place.
So, we are creating and operating our own factory from scratch.
There is no risk of getting caught because it will only be used for internal disturbance anyway, and will not be distributed to the market.
I said with a smile.
“Yeah, let’s do this.”
Wang Longhai, a designer at a small sewing factory, sighed as she looked at the paycheck she had received.
“ha. So when do you raise money?”
Wang Longhai’s monthly salary is 3,000 yuan.
It was only 500,000 won in Korean money.
He had long since given up on his determination to make clothes with the design he had devised and to make his name known to the world.
The only remaining goal of his life was to live a prosperous and happy life with his wife and daughter.
“Should I even have a job?”
As I was walking towards the house, a man approached me and talked to me.
“Are you Mr. Wang Longhai?”
A slightly awkward Chinese accent.
“who are you?”
“Nice to meet you. It’s called wiping.”
“Are you a foreigner?”
“ah. I am a Chinese.”
Wei Yeon-joo said with a smile.
“A fourth-generation Chinese born and raised in Korea.”
“That’s right. But what did you come here for?”
“I came here because I wanted to make one suggestion.”
“Any suggestion?”
Wei Yeon-joo said in a quiet voice.
“This time, I am going to set up a factory, and I would like to hire Mr. Yu Longhai as the chief designer.”
When he said that he was the chief designer, Yu Ronghai said with a persuasive expression.
“Are you the chief… designer?”
“Yes.”
After all, Wang Longhai has no regrets about the company now.
“What are the conditions?”
“If you are sure of your skills…”
Wei Yeon-joo said with a smile.
“I can even pay you 20,000 yuan a month.”
“2. 20,000 yuan!?”
taken from noblemt l
More than 6 times my current salary.
Wang Longhai could notice the amount beyond common sense.
This is no ordinary offer.
“Is it… a fake?”
Wei Yeon-joo said with a smile.
“It could be.”
Wang Longhai said he was worried.
“Luxury counterfeits are dangerous and I have never made them…”
“You don’t have to worry about that. I do not intend to make luxury goods.”
“Ummm…”
Wang Longhai wasn’t the first to receive such an offer.
But before that, it was at most 2 to 3 times, so it was a little burdensome to do it while taking risks, but 6 times was different.
It is said that if you close your eyes and work for 3 years, you will receive 20 years’ worth of salary.
After thinking for a while, Wang Longhai closed his eyes tightly and said.
“under. I’ll do it.”
As soon as I came to Korea, I found a person who met the criteria in a back alley, and that was Wi-Yeon-Joo.
Since her father’s business went bankrupt and she came to this place after wandering around, she was Chinese, so she was fluent in Chinese and had Chinese nationality, so it was perfect for her.
I immediately contacted the merchant who made up the top tier of the point organization and tried to contact Wi Yeon-ju, who accepted the offer without any hesitation.
In earnest, it started supplying manpower to run counterfeit factories.
“very good.”
The more I think about it, the more places I can use it.
Having formed a joint venture, opened a channel in China, and acquired a counterfeit weapon, I can now control the market even more at will.
I said raising the corners of my lips.
“When everything is ready, shall we start working on it?”
