How a Catastrophic Necromancer Retired

“Upgrade to A/S for a lifetime!? How much do you need?”

“The more, the better. Of course, we plan to pay it back as soon as possible. I don’t know if you know, but my company’s sales have already exceeded tens of billions of won a month already…”

When I was about to make an appeal to borrow as much as possible, Kim Han-ul interrupted me and said,

“I will lend you 20 billion won with my own money. You don’t have to save money anyway to upgrade equipment like others, but just keep accumulating money. Interest has paid off.”

I thought it wouldn’t exceed 10 billion at most, but at most 20 billion for an interest-free loan?

Good?

Then, if I add up the money I’ve saved up from selling the horse to Kim Han-ul for 23 billion including a loan, and take out a bank note, I’ll probably be able to buy a factory of the size I thought it would be.

But no matter what, the interest-free rate pokes my conscience a bit.

“You still have to pay interest. 2 percent.”

“Uh-huh. It’s okay, so it’s okay.”

“Take it. That makes me feel at ease.”

After struggling for a while, I and Kim Han-ul finally decided on 1%.

“Thanks to representative Han, I think I will be able to engage in battles with confidence in the future. I wish you all the best in the future.”

“I wish you well.”

“I will call the secretary and send the money right away.”

But then, Manager Yoon looked at his phone and said,

“It looks like an unstable gate.”

“What?”

“It’s a D-class and the emergency response team has arrived, so it’s over without any problems…”

But suddenly, Kim Han-ul raised his fist and said:

“An unstable gate! Citizens will be anxious, so I will go by myself!”

“Yes? I usually wouldn’t go even though I was told to go, so why didn’t I have to go…”

Kim Han-ul said with a bright smile.

“Why why?! You should show off your clothes to your daughter!!”

– Whoa!!

In the news, a giant flower, Han-ul Kim, wearing full-body bone armor, smashed monsters jumping out of an unstable gate like a fly.

After a while, the anchor came out and said:

-It is said that Kim Han-ul, the guild leader, was dispatched to the unstable gate wearing bone armor that covers the whole body differently than usual… Expert Kim Han-seok. What do you think?

-Probably not the representative work of Seron’s Han Ji-hyuk…

“It’s fast.”

Kim Han-ul, who ran to the unstable gate, confidently reveals himself as if showing off his new clothes to everyone and destroys the monster.

And as if meeting the expectations of Kim Han-ul, the media company focuses on making various assumptions about the new clothes.

“It’s okay to be satisfied with each other. Kim Han-ul is good because I want good performance armor, and I like it because I want money. And above all else.”

all the way all the way

I said while looking at the skeleton that was floating in the air and was doing something.

“It’s better because you can get battle data.”

At that time, the screen again broadcasts the image of Kim Han-ul fighting again.

However, a skeleton floating in the air is doing exactly the same thing as Kim Han-ul in the screen.

Naturally, this skeleton was connected to the armor Kim Han-ul is wearing, and it was a skeleton for data storage that mimics the movements of Kim Han-ul and remembers them.

A skeleton made by completely replicating Kim Han-ul’s body shape by stealing some of the money and materials received from Kim Han-ul under the pretext of making armor.

In the future, this skeleton will absorb all of Kim Han-ul’s battle data and become the basis for my macro.

“Hmm. But can this be applied to programmers?”

You don’t control it with a console, you control it by wearing it yourself.

I tried to think about the possibilities, but then smiled and said.

“I think it would be less efficient.”

The programmers hired by Seron are all masters of control and creativity who have excelled in the game world, not those who specialize in using their own bodies.

In other words, it is people who are more accustomed to operating while watching through the console rather than using their own body.

Of course, if you get used to it, you have to do it well, but the console-controlled system has already been completely established, and if you suddenly apply this, it will only cause confusion.

“…By the way, it costs billions of dollars to just make it.”

This gigantic skeleton armor was also a kind of experiment.

It’s a nice piece of armor, but it’s practically a skeleton you can wear, so you can set a measure of how much money you have to spend to create a usable undead.

And the results of the experiment were quite disappointing.

No matter how good the armor was, it was the level of a large siege skeleton that I carried with me hundreds of times.

Of course, as it is a special entity, its combat power is considerable, but if it costs billions to make one, there is nothing else to say.

“There is a long way to go. Still, it’s because you can’t be satisfied with the first drink. Let’s work hard to raise money.”

Then an alarm goes off on my phone.

After hearing the alarm, I smiled.

“23 billion deposits.”

It looks like he ordered the secretary to deposit money while going to the unstable gate.

I was surprised when they said they would lend me 20 billion won, but now I haven’t even signed a contract.

Of course, I don’t want to take money out of it because I didn’t write a contract, but anyway, I’ve only seen it a few times.

Should I say this is a big distribution or what?

A manly style that I recognized when I recklessly ripped off the armor, but once I got stuck in it, I rushed forward.

I personally like it.

“great.”

Anyway, I knew I had a long way to go, but that’s something that will be resolved if I earn a lot of money.

I said with a smirk.

“Money is coming in. Shall we grow a little bigger?”

“Whoa.”

Rocco’s representative, Andrew, sighed.

“…and no money.”

Strictly speaking, it’s not about money.

The profit from shoes produced by other factories is only shabby compared to shoes produced by Ceron.

Because of the nature of shoes, where nearly half of the production cost is labor costs, the delivery cost of Ceron, which offers skeletons for free, was overwhelming.

In particular, recently, Ceron stopped taking over a new shoe factory and its production capacity reached saturation, which inevitably made the disappointment even greater.

Then the executive said with a smirk.

“Still, thanks to the CEO’s determination, we are satisfied with the guaranteed quantity for our top-priority contractors, so the situation is good.”

Until then, Ceron had been attracting new contracts by scattering proposals to all kinds of manufacturers to take advantage of the overflowing surplus labor force, but when production reached its limit, no new contracts were signed.

Because it was difficult to digest the quantity of the company that I had contracted with.

Fortunately, Rocco was the first to sign a contract with any other company, and the amount that was put as a guarantee was quite generous, but that was enough.

“Then what do you do? The factory is in full operation and we are not receiving additional quantities.”

Ceron is in full operation enough to refuse a contract with a new customer.

Naturally, existing customers were also blocked from placing additional orders.

Andrew said, shaking his head.

“The amount of guarantee would be so disappointing.”

Originally, the basic principle was that the manufacturer tried to secure as much as possible and the manufacturer tried to give as little as possible.

Because the guaranteed quantity was only the minimum sales standard given by the manufacturer to the producer.

However, the meaning of guaranteed quantity in Seron has completely changed.

“Not 15 thousand, but 300,000. No, I should have contracted everything I could.”

The minimum right to use the limited amount of Ceron production.

That was the meaning of the guaranteed quantity at Seron.

Rocco, who signed a contract with 150,000 units, can only produce 15 units from Ceron per month.

why?

because production is insufficient.

Therefore, the reality faced by other manufacturers, including Rocco, is that orders can only be ordered for the guaranteed quantity specified in the contract.

Andrew said with a look of regret.

“I should have acknowledged it sooner.”

I regret that if I had recognized Ceron as a partner that maximizes Rocco’s profits rather than a mere subcontractor from the beginning, and set a sufficient amount of guarantee, I would not have had to share the saturated production capacity of Ceron with other customers. .

Andrew said looking at the paperwork.

“We sell the same shoes, but the difference in net profit is double. Twice.”

Usually, the percentage of net profit that a maker sets for a shoe is 10%.

However, for shoes produced by Ceron, labor costs were excluded and the ratio increased by nearly 20 percent.

In addition, when dealing with existing producers, even with a simple model change, you have to fight an annoying tug-of-war, but Seron has none of that, so how good is it?

In particular, in the case of a model that has had experience making at least once in Seron, it is a level that can be applied immediately upon request.

Just like an automatic machine that makes shoes automatically by adding raw materials.

Therefore, no other company is as perfect as Seron when it comes to dealing with urgent situations.

However, the available production has been completely stagnant, and now it is only possible to adjust within the previously contracted 15 satisfaction levels.

The only solution was for Ceron to add more skeletons in large quantities to increase production and accept additional orders.

“Can Ceron further increase production?”

At Andrew’s words, the executive shook his head and said.

“Recently, a CEO started a boarding skeleton business. They sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars each. This means that you may have reached your limit on the number of skeletons you can create. Maybe we can dismantle the worker skeleton we have already made and make a skeleton for boarding.”

Since there is a limit to the number of skeletons produced, it is speculated that they have turned to other businesses with relatively good returns.

It was a very plausible guess.

“Even if you regret it, it’s already too late…

But then.

An executive burst into the representative’s office and said with an excited expression.

“CEO!!”

“what happened?”

“Ceron is about to open a new large-scale factory! The production is said to be more than double that of all existing factories combined!!”

Andrew said with his mouth wide open.

“two. double?!”

“Yes! It seems that the contract of the existing plant is left as it is and the new plant is moving through a separate contract. It seems that Ceron is trying to make a new contract with a new factory right now…”

Andrew jumped up from his seat and cried.

“How many other factory guarantees total?”

“The total of all factories is about 130 satisfaction.”

The amount of shoes that Rocco needs per month is about 200 satisfaction, and 130 of them are tied to a contract.

The remaining 70 satisfactions were adjusting the quantity by placing orders individually from one factory to another depending on the situation, but that was meaningless as long as Ceron’s new factory appeared.

“Then offer a guaranteed amount of 700,000 to Ceron!”

In other words, other factories produce only the guaranteed quantity specified in the contract and push the rest to Ceron.

It was truly the largest amount of guarantee since the founding of Rocco.

“We have to push as many of our stuff as possible before the factory gets saturated!”

Before the new factory becomes saturated and additional orders are blocked, it is necessary to secure the production capacity of Ceron as much as possible by securing the required quantity as a contractually guaranteed quantity in advance, while at the same time filling the gap for other makers to enter.

That’s a shortcut for Rocco to grow and the most efficient way to get an edge over competitors.

There was no reason to hesitate, as Endrew desperately felt the void due to the saturation of Ceron’s production.

“I’m sending Rocco Korea staff to go ahead with the contract right now! 70 million people. No, you can catch more if you have the time, so hurry up before you hit a player from the other side!!”

A large factory purchased with the money earned from selling the horse and the money borrowed from Kim Han-ul, plus a bank loan.

The skeleton I placed here on a scale several times larger than all of the existing factories combined is not only for emergency purposes and additionally made, but also some of the skeletons placed in the existing factory for a total of 2,000.

In fact, in a matter of days, a new factory that could handle twice the existing production was born.

Let’s build a factory like this and apply for new contracts that have been blocked before…

“main. The orders are pouring in!”

Spells are pouring in as if a clogged waterhole has been opened.

Among them, sports brand makers were the ones who placed the most orders.

Sports brand makers who were unable to place additional orders because their factories were saturated at the moment when they were only handing over urgent quantities to us and trying to increase orders for taste.

Those makers are determined to build a new large-scale factory and push in the quantity.

“Rocco offered 70 satisfaction as a guaranteed quantity!”

I said with a surprised expression at Kim Deok-bae’s words.

“Suddenly 700,000?”

Rocco needs 200 satisfactions per month, so let’s say 1/3 of them are guaranteed?

Kim Deok-bae said with an excited expression.

“This is about the level that almost other factories only give a certain amount of guarantee and entrust the rest to us!”

In a nutshell, it was the sound of squandering all of our supplies without violating the contract.

I said with a smirk.

“These children are now awake.”

Look at what you’re going to do.

In the first place, there is no way in the world cheap labor to replace the skeleton.

“Contract.”

“All right! oh And also in Paro…”

Contract proposals one after another.

“Take it all. All.”

It’s only 2,000 now, but in the first place, I bought a factory on a large lot with the intention of increasing it further.

“Would you like to make a thousand pieces in advance and solve them right now?”

Then Kim Deok-bae said with a surprised expression.

“Are you talking more here?”

This is what I’ve been doing for nearly 30 years.

“But if it’s really possible, I’m against it.”

“the opposite?”

“The reason manufacturers and customers are pushing in each other right now is because they think that our new factory may become saturated again when it is ready. We want to preempt our production in advance. If you don’t preempt, you might not be able to place additional orders like last time. However, if we signal that we are relaxed here, we could make the makers misjudgment. oh You can do it slowly.”

oh!

Could it be?

Kim Deok-bae said with a smile.

“Then why don’t we just keep pouring in the quantity we have now if we pretend to be a little tighter and maintain production? It makes customers fuss, like a sell-out is imminent in home shopping.”
