How to Become a Black Market Tycoon

4 episodes

It had been over a week since the dungeon incident, but the world was still in chaos.

The government-sent investigation team tried to appease the people by making an official statement that the dungeon could not be passed through and it was not particularly harmful to the human body, but it was not enough to calm people down.

People continued to cling to hoarding.

Of course, the most popular among them was ramen.

It is easy to cook, has a long storage period, and above all, it is the first food that comes to mind when thinking of disasters.

“Next guest.”

I wiped my sweat and turned my head to look at the remaining ramen boxes.

“Half left.”

Ramen, which is receiving 120,000 won per box, exceeding the original goal of 100,000 won per box, is still selling hot.

Needless to say, on the Internet, it was already popular to resell ramen bought at the supermarket with a 10 times margin.

At this point in the situation, there is no choice but to shout out loud among the production plants and distributors that receive and sell goods at regular prices.

The government also hinted that it would manage the supply chain for daily necessities directly, thinking that this would not be the case, but is it possible to effectively manage it as a government with only one or two items and the administrative power is already low?

Anyway, in this situation, my 120,000 won seemed rather cheap.

“Shall we raise it to 130,000 won from tomorrow?”

I didn’t upload more than 120,000 won because I thought it was too harsh, but seeing other guys taking advantage of the opportunity to make money, I can’t stand it because I’m so hungry.

The guest, who heard my murmur, was startled, hesitated for a moment, and said:

“···two. Just two more boxes, please!”

“Yes. All right.”

After handed over two additional boxes, I put the money I received into the ramen box that was being used as a money box.

A bundle of banknotes stacked in a ramen box.

I said with a smirk.

“It really fills me up just looking at it.”

Although only half of it was sold, it has already earned 2.5 times the principal.

It is different from the time when they were completely empty with various utility bills and monthly rent as soon as they received their monthly salary.

I said with a pleasant smile.

“Next guest.”

So the next guest.

However, the guests were not adults, but two boys who looked like elementary school students.

“I···”

The boy who looked like an older brother looked at me and said.

“I’m really sorry, can you give me some ramen?”

“········”

“We haven’t been able to eat all the time…there’s nothing at the convenience store, and I’m very hungry, but I came here because they have ramen.”

shit.

No matter how much I vowed to live with a dog…

They’re just kids.

“I don’t mean to just take it here…”

The boy said as he handed him several folded thousand-won bills.

“Can I buy some ramen with this?”

Seeing these two brothers, the people behind them also helped out one word at a time as if it was unfortunate.

“That…”

“Anyway, they’re still kids…”

At a glance, it’s a little over a million dollars.

With that, it’s not even worth the cost of a box of ramen.

Besides, once is difficult, twice is easy.

What if you do a favor here once and then come back next time?

Or what if another child comes?

“……”

But it reminds me of my childhood.

The persecution and scars of childhood.

That memory haunted me right up until I died, and it left me traumatized.

I thought for a moment, fiddling with the ramen box.

‘Still, if it’s only one…’

taken from noblemt l

May i give

I made a lot of money, but that’s…

After thinking about it for a while, the boy said.

“Is it because it’s not enough? All I have is this…”

okay.

It’s not like I’m going to become anything if I give it one, and above all else, I’m not a child.

what’s wrong with the kid

That moment when I was about to hand over a box of ramen.

I saw a child’s clothes in my eyes.

And a strange sense of discomfort.

“Ummm.”

It is said that Koreans recognize Koreans even when they go abroad.

You will notice it instinctively from similar lifestyles and clothes.

And the same goes for people who have lived a deprived life like me.

Because a child raised by an ordinary person has always been through experiences and deficiencies that he would never have felt.

so it seems

I looked at the child’s clothes and money, and said with a grin.

“okay. There was nothing to eat at the convenience store?”

“Yes.”

“Then do you have any child meal cards?”

A card issued by the country for undernourished children.

At my words, the child hesitated for a moment, then said.

“Yes. Yes···”

“Would you like to give it to me?”

“that. I left it at home.”

I said in a more confident voice.

“Do you live in this town?”

“Yes···”

“great. Then tell me about three restricted items that cannot be bought with a meal card at a convenience store.”

“Yes!?”

It is in these small details that the difference between a person like me and an ordinary person is.

A child who has never used a child’s meal card and never thought about it would have no way of knowing this.

“Give me five seconds. Five. buy.”

“la. Ramen!”

“In addition?”

“that. that is.”

I continued to fold my fingers.

“three. this. Work. Ding.”

I said waving my hands.

“Hey. ㅤ. Go out when you say something nice.”

“no. Where is that! I was so confused that I didn’t even think about it!”

I said with a casual expression.

“cake. carbonated drink. Caffeine-containing, household items.”

The child panicked when I told him the restricted items.

I said with a smile.

“What. It was like that when I was in school. I don’t know these days.”

The point is whether there is an answer to that question right away or not.

If it had been a really deprived child, he would have read through the restricted items one after another.

“What are you going to do with this money to buy ramen? Do you want to make money by reselling it?”

The children shudder at my words.

“Wherever my hair is dry, things that don’t even have blood smoke…”

It was the attire that convinced me that these children were not deprived children.

A mid-to-low priced maker of about 3,000 to 40,000 won.

Of course, just because a child is deprived doesn’t mean he can’t wear this kind of maker.

There are many people who donate clothes to orphanages.

The problem is the size of the clothes.

Both of them, who appear to be brothers, are wearing clothes that fit their body just right for both upper and lower body.

I said with a smirk.

“Where do you feel sorry for wearing clothes that fit your body? In a situation where it is not enough to fit my body to my clothes. Go away because you are in denial. Whoa.”

The two children, bewildered by my words, go out.

And the next guest.

“thing. Isn’t it too much to do this to children?”

“That’s what I do.”

okay.

It is a world where if you look weak, you will be eaten.

I know better than anyone that not all children are kind and innocent.

Hue is the goat

Get poisoned

Be strong.

“The customer will decide whether or not to buy at this price. how.”

I said with a smile.

“How many boxes would you like?”

I lay down in the mall, scattering money, and shouting.

“Complete edition!”

In less than two weeks after the dungeon incident, all the ramen prepared was sold out.

Ramen, which was sold at 120,000 won, was sold at 150,000 won from the moment I almost got beaten up by the kids, but people bought it like crazy thinking that they should buy it before the price rises higher.

So now all that was left was two boxes of ramen and four boxes full of money until just before the end of the dungeon crisis.

“I’ve never touched so much money in my entire life.”

After selling all the ramen, the money that fell into my hands was 540 million.

It was the biggest money I had ever touched in my entire life.

“under. So good.”

When I make money through a trick that uses future knowledge, I regret even more about my past life, where I lived a foolishly hard life.

“okay. Money is basically what you eat and eat.”

If I don’t eat, someone else eats.

Then don’t give in.

“Now the next one…”

I said with a smile.

“It is the land.”

As the dungeon industry goes on track in earnest, the price of land near the dungeon goes up to heaven.

A ramen company that has a dungeon near the ramen factory?

Not only did I make money by selling ramen, but thanks to the dungeon next to the ramen factory, the price of the factory site I owned went up like crazy, thinking that I later quit the ramen business and entered the dungeon business in earnest and later became one of the leading conglomerates in Korea. .

However, this also means that I cannot live in the land of the ramen factory.

Then, all that’s left is Seongbuk-gu Dungeon.

I looked up the Seongbuk-gu market price and said with a kick.

“It’s still expensive.”

Although the market price has fallen by nearly 30% from the previous one, the price of land in Seoul must be very expensive.

After all, Seoul is Seoul.

I liked that I made 53,000, but this money is not even enough to buy a small building.

“Seongbuk-gu is a pass.”

A dungeon in the middle of Seoul.

Of course, the land price was also overwhelmingly more expensive than other dungeon cities, so I saw it just in case, but the drop was not as big as I expected.

“Then shall we move on as planned?”

The dungeon that appeared just before the hunters appeared.

It was the third dungeon in Korea.

After a long drive, we arrived at a quiet rural village in Dangjin.

“···long time no see.”

I worked for quite a long time near the Dangjin F-class dungeon, but it was completely different from the landscape I was working in.

“How can such a quiet rural village be so prosperous?”

In this place, which was remembered as a dungeon-centered building and soliciting merchants, now only the expansive paddy fields and a few country houses stood out.

I said, gazing again.

“If you buy land here…”

You will probably see a huge profit margin.

“By the way, where did the dungeon come from?”

The problem is that the terrain itself is so different from the future I experienced, I don’t know exactly where the dungeons are created.

Of course, you can make a huge profit by buying just a little bit nearby, but if possible, you should buy the best Altoran-like land.

After walking around for a while, the grandfather and grandmother who were farming began to show interest in the appearance of a stranger they had never seen.

“Who has come?”

I smiled and said at the words of one grandfather.

“no. I didn’t come here to see anyone, I just came to see the land.”

“earth?”

“Yes. I used to live in Seoul, but these days it’s so ugly. That’s why I’m thinking of returning to farming…”

“Huh. farming? Farming must not be easy for young people these days.”

“haha. What in the world is easy? Anyway, good luck.”

I’ve been wandering around for so long.

I said scratching the back of the head.

“ah. Obviously, where is it?”

I keep walking around, so I know where it is, but I’m not sure.

But then.

“Did you come to see the land?”

“Yes. I’m just interested in farming…”

I turned my head to answer, but at that moment I had no choice but to stop.

A man in his 40s with wide shoulders and charred skin from farming.

“How long have you been thinking about coming here?”

I know this man.

okay.

I’m much older than I am now, but I can’t forget this face.

A man who became rich at once through the Dangjin Dungeon while farming.

And a notorious man who used the land to engage in all kinds of acts and abuse.

“Maybe your name is…”

The man said with a sullen expression.

“My name is Youngsoo Oh.”

I said with a smile.

“Nice to meet you. My name is Insoo Jeong.”

The goal has been set.
