How a Calamity Necromancer Retires - How a Calamity Necromancer Retires chapter 91
From nob le mtl dot com
Military skeletons are introduced sequentially.
Here, as the skeleton league is activated and the prize money also rises exponentially, players competitively devise new skeletons and strategic tactics to crush opponents like spears and shields, and come up with another method to destroy them again.
“It’s smooth.”
Thanks to this, combat-type algorithms are growing at a very rapid pace.
In the military, military skeletons that combine modern weapons and modern tactics are developing, and in the league, various and mysterious versions of skeletons that I could not have imagined if I were alone using cold weapons came out.
Now, these skeletons will play a role as special forces in the future battle against the undead army.
The Algorithm of the Seron Undead Corps was created without thinking of opponents with such combat methods.
Of course, as the basic specs are excellent and it is detailed to respond to unknown enemies and battles, it will be possible to cope to some extent.
But that’s it.
If I had been there, I would have upgraded the perfect countermeasure right away, but the Seron Undead Corps, which had no subject of upgrade, would not always be able to demonstrate more than an accurate response.
Then, if you find a gap, you can relentlessly aim for that gap.
Because the Seron Undead Corps has no existence like me to fill that gap.
“Now I just have to work hard to make money.”
As combat algorithms are developing in various forms as if watching the process of evolution, all you need is money to support the development.
He poured huge amounts of money to buy artificial essences and created undead with high specs with those artificial essences.
“Once over 100 trillion…”
And Seron, which will make that money, currently has a monthly sales of close to 10 trillion, exceeding the estimated sales of 100 trillion a year.
But even this is not enough.
Although it achieved sales of 100 trillion won, this is because the impact of the puffing that occurred in the distribution process of the energy market was great.
“The energy market prospects are good, but the net profit is too small.”
As the business started with a focus on coexistence with people and stable mana supply, sales were high, but net profit was significantly lower than other affiliates.
Although the net profit of Protige is high, in the case of power plants that consume the most artificial water purification, the production unit price is still higher than that of nuclear power, so the margin rate fluctuates around 3 percent.
Of course, as sales were high, even 3 percent was a considerable amount of money, but it was true that it was regrettable.
I licked my lips and said.
“Are there any new foods?”
A job where you can earn money and not be cursed at.
But nothing comes to mind.
Almost all industries that have already flowed abroad due to expensive labor have entered the country.
“Should I just work hard at what I was doing?”
This isn’t a bad way either.
Because Seron continues to grow even now.

Maybe even if I grow my business well now, I will be able to achieve the amount I am aiming for one day.
“I’m still sorry.”
However, the more you open up new routes, the closer you get to your goal.
“What do you have?”
Usually, when the Seron Group grows, it is common to develop technology and develop into a cutting-edge field.
However, Seron had nothing to do with its own technology other than the skeleton.
“If we ask the researchers to come and do technology research, there’s no way they’ll be able to catch up.”
In that case, the best thing to do is to use the skeleton’s overwhelming labor force.
“hmm.”
After thinking about it for a while, a news item caught my eye on the portal that was displayed on the monitor.
“…a total strike by courier drivers.”
I clicked on the news article as if possessed by something.
“Due to the recent decrease in workers, the courier driver is burdened with heavy work…”
After confirming all the contents, I said with my eyes shining.
“Is there a manpower shortage here too?”
Reduction of part-time jobs due to energy purchases.
Small business owners felt the impact the most, but the same was true for industries such as delivery and courier services.
It’s not just that people said to run for delivery if there’s nothing to do.
Because the entry barrier is so low, even office workers work part-time as a two-job delivery service.
Delivery also consumes a lot of manpower, such as loading and unloading, but as income is stabilized due to the generalization of energy purchases, fewer people are forced to do such hard work.
“parcel. delivery. Ohh?”
Come to think of it, aren’t the corporate values of American Internet commerce companies ranked among the top five in the world?
After searching the company on the Internet, I said with a surprised expression.
“and. Two trillion?”
The corporate value of a company that only delivers parcels is 2,000 trillion won.
“Is this money?”
Of course, just as Seron’s net income is low in the energy market, margins on the distribution side are inevitably small.
However, the effect of boosting sales is enormous, and at the same time, it is the distribution industry that can be completely suppressed once it is established.
So, isn’t it that various Internet commerce companies in Korea are in a bloody competition, even enduring losses?
It’s because the US 2,000 trillion Internet commerce company proved that once you have a firm position, you can make money.
“Shall we try this?”
Internet commerce companies in bloody competition with each other.
In addition, there was a manpower shortage, so it is perfect to enter the taxon.
“I’m delivering a package with a skeleton.”
This is a business that could not have been done in the past.
I am making an algorithm that visits countless houses one by one.
But now it’s different.
Skeleton algorithm technology has become so common that part-time job skeletons are distributed to small business owners and private skeleton shops and vendors are created all over the country.
Wouldn’t it be good enough to use this?
“I think we can solve the manpower shortage and keep our jobs if we absorb the delivery drivers who are facing a serious manpower shortage and combine them well with the skeleton.”
The feeling comes.
this works
But there is a problem.
“Just because a skeleton delivers, it doesn’t create a special experience.”
In the end, the consumer only pays the money and receives the order, but it has nothing to do with the consumer who did the delivery by the skeleton.
Of course, it is possible to use the manpower shortage as an opportunity to reduce shipping costs and deliver at a low price, but the impact is too weak.
I said while checking the famous Korean Internet commerce website.
“Missile delivery. Overnight delivery.”
And the same goes for other internet commerce companies.
They devise and introduce various methods to emphasize their own strengths.
“I need something special like this. I need a reason to use Seron’s Internet commerce company.”
what good
I thought for a moment, then opened my eyes and said.
“Shall we put it all together?”
If you think about it, these services are a structure that eventually changes manpower and maintains it.
Of course, as long as there is a limit to manpower, the scope of service is bound to be limited.
But there is no limit to my manpower.
“okay. It puts everything together.”
It’s not about delivering at a specific time or something like that, it’s about delivering immediately after ordering and within the shortest period of time.
I got up and said.
“Let’s test it.”
Skeleton with a delivery box walks and checks the entrance of an apartment.
After checking the copper number written on the entrance, the skeleton went inside and put down the courier box according to the number.
I looked at it and smiled brightly.
“Wow, you are good?”
Baek Sang-ho said with a confident expression.
“I also display store goods, but this is not much work.”
I thought the workload would be daunting as I had to assign many houses one by one, but the algorithm technology accumulated by the research center was superior to my expectations.
Instead of using the know-how accumulated by producing customized algorithms for small business owners to create a movement line to individual houses, the skeleton itself recognizes the number and finds a house that matches the number.
“Center Baek. Is there any possibility of a courier business using this?”
“of course. The sidewalks are well made and the compartments are firmly divided, so it is possible enough.”
“nice.”
good good
“But there is a problem.”
“Is there a problem?”
“Skeletons cannot drive, and products can be damaged, so they cannot run, so a huge number of skeletons will be needed to be effective with this.”
That’s right.
After all, you need a base to deliver skeletons, and if you send skeletons directly from this base, it will take a lot of time to go back and forth.
But it doesn’t matter.
“That’s because Center Manager Baek was thinking of doing deliveries only with skeletons.”
“yes?”
“As always, Seron values coexistence, doesn’t it? I will change the work of couriers themselves.”
“Changing jobs, what is that…”
“From now on, delivery drivers will not deliver goods, but skeletons. It acts as an aircraft carrier of sorts. At the base, courier drivers load the skeleton and goods with the address entered, and then go to the designated place and open the truck door, and the skeletons deliver the parcel to the designated address.”
This was the coexistence method between the courier driver and the skeleton I thought of.
Taking one apartment complex as an example, if a courier driver stops a truck in the middle of an apartment complex, the skeletons in the truck are scattered all over and the entire apartment complex is delivered at the same time.
“The skeletons that have been delivered like that return to the truck. Then, the courier takes the skeleton back to the base. In the meantime, at the base, a skeleton and goods entered at the next delivery address are prepared, and when the courier driver returns, a new skeleton and goods are put in the truck and the skeleton that returned is prepared for the next delivery, and the cycle continues.”
In this way, the area that one courier driver can handle is enormously wide.
Of course, unlike when hundreds of articles are delivered alone, the delivery speed is overwhelmingly faster because they are distributed simultaneously.
“If this is the case, it will coexist with the courier drivers. What do you think?”
Baek Sang-ho nodded his head and said.
“He is also the president. My vision was narrow because I only thought about doing everything with skeletons.”
“It can be. You’ve been holding onto skeletons all day long. Anyway, keep researching. Housing in Korea is not limited to apartments. And maybe… you might be able to go abroad with this, so keep that in mind overseas as well.”
It’s 2,000 trillion won after eating one in the United States.
How can you just hand over such a coveted market?
If you succeed in ranking Korea, you will go abroad immediately.
“All right. We will proceed with everything in mind.”
I said with a grin.
“Then the algorithm, please. I now have work to do as a manager.”
“Whoa.”
Formi, a Korean Internet commerce company.
It was ranked 7th among Korean Internet commerce companies boasting annual sales of 3 trillion won, and it was a very sound company from the outside.
Sales are high, rankings are high.
But if you look inside, it’s literally nothing more than rags.
Because the chicken game between companies to occupy the throne was literally a point-and-shoot.
Even if it is not, the margin rate of distribution companies is very low, but various events are scattered to attract customers, and deficits are accumulated, and now even large companies that have confirmed the possibility of Internet commerce have entered the situation.
Thinking they’ll have it all once they’re in their seats, they risk massive losses waiting for their competitors to drop first.
“Now… that’s the limit.”
And in this crazy game of chicken, Formie, number 7 in the industry, has reached its limit.
High-ranking companies are actively attracting investment because they see potential, and companies with large corporations as parent companies are enduring with strong financial support from their parent companies, but Formie, which started as a startup and ranked 7th, had to solve everything on its own.
At least in the beginning, various events planned hit the jackpot and attracted investment, which made it this far.
And for Internet commerce companies, starting to lose market share was tantamount to a death sentence.
You have to endure the structure of taking a deficit to increase your share, using the share as bait to attract investment, and using that money to bear a deficit again to increase your share, so you can ascend to the throne, but this cycle has collapsed.
“Let’s sell. There is no other way.”
In the end, the choice of CEO Formi, who was driven into a corner, was to sell.
It was the only way to escape from the hellish game of chicken to accumulate only deficits and sell them off before the company goes bankrupt.
“How much can I get if I sell it?”
In this game of chicken, which has no meaning unless it is the throne, the only value left for Formie, who dropped out of the game, is the share.
“It will be difficult to exceed 60 billion won.”
Even if the CEO himself thinks, the value of Formi, which is holding huge debt and has lost its growth engine, is at most 300 billion.
The CEO himself holds 20 percent of the shares, as he has been attracting investments and continuously handing over his shares.
So, when the total value of Formi was set at 300 billion won, the price of the stake the CEO himself had was 60 billion won.
That’s when it’s maxed out.
“It’s only 60 billion… you’ve been through so much hardship to earn this?”
It may be a huge amount by the standard of the general public, but from the point of view of the representative who built a company that raises trillions of sales with his own hands, it was a very shabby amount even if it was shabby.
If Formie had taken the throne, it would have exceeded 60 billion, not trillions.
The representative came to mind of the efforts he had been making to attract investors in the meantime.
“…but there’s no way. Let’s sell.”
If the company goes bankrupt, it might not be 60 billion won, but a piece of toilet paper.
That’s when I decided to sell.
“big. CEO!”
The secretary burst through the door and came in.
“A guest has arrived!”
“customer?”
From the standpoint of Formie, which desperately needs investment, customers with a lot of money are always welcome.
“who?”
The CEO of Formi asked the secretary who he was with high expectations.
However, the name of the person who came out of the mouth of such a secretary was a giant far beyond the imagination of the CEO of Formie.
“This is Seron Group Chairman Han Ji-hyeok!”
“under. Chairman Han Ji-hyeok!?”
Although not listed, the Seron Group is considered one of the top 10 conglomerates in Korea based on estimated sales alone.
Han Ji-hyeok, who alone owns 100 percent of the shares in the Seron Group, was unofficially the richest person in Korea based on personal assets.
And if it is possible to attract investment from such a rich person, it will not be a dream to leap again toward the seat of the throne that CEO Formi has dreamed of.
The representative of Formi jumped up and said.
“Take him right away… no, I’ll go out myself.”
The representative of Formie ran right away like that.
“under. Chairman Han!”
In the eyes of such a formi CEO, Chairman Han Ji-hyeok, whom he only saw on TV, is standing.
“welcome!”
“yes. Nice to meet you. This is Han Ji-hyeok.”
“I’ll take you this way!”
Formy CEO, who politely served Han Ji-hyeok to the representative office.
“The company is good.”
“hahahaha. Is that so?”
Excited by Han Ji-hyeok’s positive response, the CEO started talking about the company.
“Through logistics centers all over the country and fast delivery…”
At the CEO’s words, Han Ji-hyeok nodded and agreed.
“It’s fine. With that much infrastructure.”
The CEO, who was so excited to explain, said with a sorry expression.
“ah. Come to think of it, I was not in a hurry, so I couldn’t even ask what was the reason for your visit. What did you come here for… by any chance an investment?”
Formi CEO looked at Han Ji-hyeok, hoping for an investment proposal.
However, the story that came out of Han Ji-hyeok’s mouth was not an investment proposal.
“ah. It is not an investment.”
When he said it was not an investment, the CEO hurriedly said.
“mind. If you invest, I am confident that Formi will become the best Internet commerce company in Korea!”
“Of course, I came here with the intention of making Formi the best Internet commerce company, but I am going to do it myself, not the CEO.”
“···yes?”
“I am here to make a takeover offer. The value of the entire form I thought was 500 billion. Of course, I take on all my debts.”
Although it is not an investment proposal he expected, Han Ji-hyeok set the value of Formy nearly twice as high as he thought.
The representative muttered with a blank expression.
“Then, is my stake worth 100 billion won?”
Although it is not an expected investment proposal, for the representative who was considering selling for 60 billion won, a golden opportunity to escape from this game of chicken with a larger amount has come.
But it’s a pity.
‘If Seron makes up his mind and jumps in… the probability of success is high.’
Isn’t it a taxon that boasts a 100% business success rate?
Of course, there is bound to be greed.
‘Shall I sell half and hold the other half?’
If Seron jumps in and Formie succeeds in reviving and takes the throne, the value of the current stake will increase several times.
When I was thinking about selling the stake, the CEO of Han Ji-hyeok interrupted and said.
“Instead, there are conditions.”
“Conditions?”
“Honestly, 500 billion won is a very excessive amount in the present situation. However, the reason for suggesting 500 billion is simple. I heard that the relationship between the shares in Formi is a bit complicated?”
“It’s because I received an investment and distributed my stake.”
Han Ji-hyeok said with a calm expression.
“Get all of that sorted out. If everyone hands over 100% of Formie’s shares to me at the same time, I will buy it on the terms just mentioned. But even one person refuses? No matter what percentage of that stake, I will not buy it. So, if you want to sell your stake at a high price, persuade other investors. Because I’m not 100 percent careful.”
