Episode 15. The name is not known.
Episode 15. The name is not known.
On the first day of eating honey in Sejun’s cave, the poisonous bee realized that changes had begun in his body. After that, every time I ate honey every day, my body started to smell a little stronger and my body became a little plump.
At first, I didn’t know what the change was, but I realized what it was when the queen bee in the hive started to become wary of herself. He himself was able to lay eggs. So the poisonous bee decided to become independent.
The place to become independent is of course Sejun’s cave, which is close to the food. Since a huge amount of cherry tomato flowers would soon bloom, it seemed like there would be enough food even if the family increased.
Buzzing.
To achieve this, they rubbed their bodies against the cave owner every day to show their friendliness, letting them know that they were not enemies, and were allowed(?) to live in the cave. Of course, Sejun will never know when he gave permission.
Booby booby.
Today too, it was a poisonous bee that started the day by rubbing against the cave owner.
and
“Let’s work.”
Beep!
Beep!
Wow!
Bye!
The morning started with Sejun and the rabbits doing their own work.
“Hmm…about 70%?”
Sejun said, looking at the carrot sprouts that had grown to ankle-length. I didn’t give up and kept watering and waiting for sprouts to sprout, but only 700 out of 1,000 carrot seeds I purchased and planted at a seed store sprouted.
And the probability of 1,200 cherry tomato seeds planted from magic cherry tomatoes was about 10% lower than that of carrot seeds. Germination rate 61%. Out of 1,200, 732 had sprouted and growing.
The germination rate of corn seeds purchased and planted at a seed store and sweet potato shoots planted directly was about 70% to 60%, similar to the germination rate of carrots and cherry tomatoes.
“Hehehe. Thank you for helping me grow.”
Approximately 1,000 of the plants he had planted died, rendering his efforts useless, but when he saw the sprouts that had survived and not died, his dissatisfaction quickly disappeared and a smile came to his face.
At that time, a message appeared in Sejun’s eyes.
[Additional quests will occur.]
[Quest: Give 10 Magical Cherry Tomatoes to the tower manager!]
Reward: None
When refused: Disappointed
The tower manager continues to have quests put on hold by Sejun and keeps the deal between Sejun and Theo. I didn’t ask too much if I realized something while watching it.
And the words to offer it up or the threat of death if you refuse have disappeared.
Instead, they express their disappointment like that. As much as I hated it, I couldn’t help but give it to him because he was so pitiful.
“take it.”
10 cherry tomatoes from Sejun’s storage disappeared.
[Quest completed.]
[The tower manager thanks you for your kindness.]
Now it’s time to thank you. I felt happy when the other person thanked me.
“huh?!”
Sejun, who was smiling happily, hastily erased his smile.
‘I just looked like a bit of a brat.’
You have to be careful. Sejun gathered himself and focused on farming again.
However, seeing the fresh green waves in the field immediately brought a happy smile to my face.
Sejun didn’t realize that it wasn’t that he was a pushover, but that his heart had broadened.
***
Day 143 of the shipwreck.
“I’m here!”
Theo announced his return by jumping from a hole in the ceiling. The voice was full of power as it was sold out.
But
“You?! What?!”
Sejun’s voice rose as he returned earlier than expected. Sejun meant it as a rebuke, asking why he came without selling everything, but Theo took it differently.
“I was wrong. Next time, even if everything is sold out, I will come right away instead of playing on another floor.”
Theo immediately confessed his mistake.
“What?! Have you been playing? How many days?”
“I played for 4 days. I did something wrong…” As
Sejun’s voice fell, Theo, who noticed his reaction, quickly grabbed Sejun’s leg and asked for forgiveness.
But Sejun’s serious expression did not ease. In my head, I was listening to Theo’s words and doing calculations diligently.
Theo said that it would take about 10 days to make a round trip to the 30th floor where the hunters were.
‘But even after it was sold out, you still had time to play for 4 days?’
Considering that Theo returned 14 days after leaving, it was sold out as soon as he left.
“Tell me more, or I’ll show you how scary you are.”
Sejun threatened Theo and scared him. Well, it seemed like there was no need to scare him since he was already watching Sejun intently.
“I understand…”
Theo, who was very withdrawn, began to explain.
“That’s how it happened… As soon as I said a few words, all the humans bought it.”
Theo, however, seemed to have had his last thoughts and left out that he had stopped the purchase.
“Really? You don’t even use special moves?”
“That’s right.”
After hearing Theo’s words, Sejun realized that the cherry tomatoes’ reaction was stronger than he thought.
“Here are 50 top coins.”
“Good job, Temple Te. Here’s your incentive.”
Sejun handed Theo 2 Top Coins, which was 4% of the sale amount.
“Huh? I’m not your representative?”
“I was just demoted. Where is the representative who comes back after playing for 4 days? If you work hard from now on, I will make you the representative again. And when you become the representative, I will also increase your incentive to 5%.”
“I understand! I will work hard and become the representative!”
Theo responded passionately to Sejun’s words.
“But what about the way you talk?”
“I just decided to live like this.”
After realizing that the Granier dialect was liked by humans, my inferiority complex about the dialect disappeared.
“Hehehe. Now my name will be known.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“The cherry tomatoes option will show the grower, so people will know that I made those cherry tomatoes.”
“…!”
Theo became restless at Sejun’s words.
There are several systems for wandering merchants, one of which is a function that forcibly obscures the source of the goods sold by novice wandering merchants with low sales, such as producers or growers.
I can’t tell you with words. Beep – processed. If you really want to teach me, all you have to do is take me to that place.
It was a policy to prevent wealthy wandering merchants from taking over the business partners of novice wandering merchants by preventing them from being made public.
In other words, the magical cherry tomatoes that Theo sells do not have the grower mark indicating that they were grown by Sejun.
And the only way to solve this limitation is to achieve a sales amount of 1000 Top Coins and become a mid-sized wandering merchant.
‘It’s a big deal.’
If Theo revealed this fact to Sejun, he would somehow be demoted one level further as an employee and his incentive would be reduced to 3%.
However, his liver mass was too small to hide.
Then there is only one way. Get out of this place!
“Give me the magic cherry tomatoes. I’ll leave right away.”
“Already? Take a few days off. You should also get paid weekly.”
“No! I’ll get it later. I want to make money quickly!”
Theo hurriedly filled his luggage with magical cherry tomatoes and left.
“The kid has grown closer.”
Sejun did not know Theo’s feelings and misunderstood.
***
While Sejun firmly believed that the cherry tomatoes with his name would spread, the hunters who bought the magical cherry tomatoes were feeling the effects of the cherry tomatoes.
“Dad! Dad! I have to get more of this next time, okay? For sure! I love this!”
Kim Dong-sik, the leader of the Phoenix Guild, bought 20 magical cherry tomatoes to satisfy his curiosity and for his daughter who was starving on a daily diet.
After eating the magical cherry tomatoes, my daughter no longer became irritable due to dieting, and peace returned to the house.
At first, I ate three a day, but these days, I eat only one in the morning, saying I’m sparing.
An option that energizes the body along with breaking down 10g of fat.
The vitality effect lasts for a long time, and even if you eat less, your body feels full of energy and is not tired, so you move more, burn additional calories, and help with dieting.
‘You shouldn’t have given in then.’
I didn’t know I would like it this much. Since other team members were buying them, I gave in and only bought 20, but seeing my daughter’s reaction made me regret buying less.
“Okay. Just trust me. I will definitely save you.”
It’s been a long time since my daughter asked for something like this. Kim Dong-sik really wanted to get magical cherry tomatoes for his daughter.
-Enter the tower after 3 days.
Kim Dong-sik sent a text summoning the team to enter the tower earlier than scheduled.
I expected the team members’ dissatisfaction, but this time, I planned to use my leader’s power to wait and hunt spider monsters around the place where I met the wandering cat merchant on the 38th floor, as I didn’t know when the wandering cat merchant would appear.
‘When I meet a wandering merchant this time, I should request a fixed transaction.’
At that time
, dooung, dooung.
The team members responded.
-yes.
-I’m ready.
-Let’s go today! Right Now!
Kim Dong-sik expected his teammates to complain, but they said they would go into the tower as if they had been waiting. Rather, he urged me to go in faster.
They were in a similar situation to Dong-sik.
***
As soon as Jessica returned home after finishing the hunt, she handed the magic cherry tomatoes to her younger sister, Anna.
I didn’t have high expectations.
But
“Sister, where did you get these cherry tomatoes?!”
Anna, who had eaten about 20 cherry tomatoes, got excited and asked Jessica, pointing to the magic cherry tomatoes.
“Why? What’s strange?!”
“No. I feel so good. I’m not depressed anymore. I have so much energy! I just want to get moving!”
“what?!”
Jessica looked at Anna in disbelief at her answer. To get Anna to exercise, I had to scold and beg for hours before she could pretend to move for about 10 minutes. But I want to move on my own.
“Sister, I want to walk.”
“Okay. Let’s go out.”
Jessica returned home that day after completing a three-hour walk around the neighborhood with Anna.
As a few days passed, Anna’s weight quickly decreased to 80 kg.
Now, without being told, Anna walks around the neighborhood alone three times a day, eating a diet menu and magic cherry tomatoes for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
At first, I had to eat 20 each to feel energized, but the number of magical cherry tomatoes decreased to 13 as my body became lighter.
It seemed like Anna would be able to find a normal life in just a month or two.
However, the magical cherry tomatoes were running out.
‘I have to go back into the tower and meet the wandering merchant.’
Then
-3 days later, enter the tower.
A text message came from the leader asking him to enter the tower.
-Let’s go today! Right Now!
Jessica hurriedly responded and started packing up her equipment.
***
“Once I got out, what should I do?”
Theo was worried as he went down to the lower level of the tower.
“When will the sales amount reach 1000 Top Coins?”
This time, I packed 1,500 magical cherry tomatoes in my bag.
However, even if you sell 1,500 units like this, you have to go back and forth more than 10 times.
“I need to make money as quickly as possible.”
I needed a way to quickly reach 1000 Top Coins in sales and become a mid-sized merchant.
I didn’t want to be demoted to the level of an employee when Sejun found out that the cultivator’s mark was being erased.
“I want to become a representative quickly.”
Since what I once had was taken away, I wanted more.
So Theo trudged along carrying a luggage full of magic cherry tomatoes to the 38th floor where he had traded with humans a few days ago.
Since it was my first time doing business there, I thought I would stop by once and go downstairs if no one was there.
At that time,
“Oh! A wandering merchant has arrived!”
“Why are you here so late?!”
“You kept waiting.”
The humans with whom he had made a deal a few days ago were running towards him.
“Are you just waiting for me as a human?”
Theo asked, looking at the humans.
“Yes. I waited three days.”
“That’s it?”
When he saw the humans waiting for him, a good idea occurred to him.
“You have magic cherry tomatoes, right?”
“Hehe. But the price has gone up.”
Theo’s business skills, who want to sit in the CEO position again, have blossomed.
