75. General shareholders’ meeting
“The business I want to start…”
The two people swallowed their saliva and paid attention to Ryumin’s words.
“We are creating a social open market just for players.”
“Social open market?”
“Are you talking about sites like Auction, F Market, or Coupong?”
Ryumin nodded to the question asked.
“Yes, the difference is that it is only available to players and they sell items instead of goods.”
“Can items be bought and sold for cash?”
“That will be decided by the seller when registering the item. Whether to do so in cash or through barter.”
“I understand bartering, but do players need cash?”
“Aren’t there people who need money? Right now, they don’t have the proper means.”
“For now? Does that mean there will be other means later?”
Ryu Min’s eyes lit up at Ma Gyeong-rok’s question.
‘As expected, you’re sharp.’
There was no way I could barely listen to anything.
“That’s right. I saw a bit of the future. I saw people over level 40 trading gold instead of cash.”
“Gold?”
The two people who had not yet reached level 40 did not even know that there was a trading function.
Of course, I had no idea that gold could be traded.
“Once you reach level 40, a trading function becomes available. With this function, players can trade gold with each other. As a brokerage site, we just need to build a system so that they can safely trade gold. Of course, we pay cash or gold as a fee. By taking it.”
“Hmm….”
Ma Gyeong-rok folded his arms and was lost in thought.
‘It’s a social market between players… … . ‘Not bad?’
First of all, there is a first-mover effect in that no one has made it.
If we hit the jackpot, we could build a monopoly in this field.
Although his thoughts were in the positive direction, Ma Gyeong-rok did not show it.
There was still a need to approach it cautiously.
“If we really open a social market, will people want to use it?”
“Currently, with five rounds in progress, players have accumulated a certain amount of items. As you know, items dropped from monsters cannot be sold to stores, so they are probably wondering what to do with them.”
“So you’re saying that if we create a market where items can be traded in times like this, players will welcome it with open arms?”
“That’s right. Moreover, now that most people are over level 20 and the combination function has been created, everyone will want to find combination methods with various items. What if there is a site where you can easily purchase items like this?”
“There will be a lot of people.”
“Yes. Now is the perfect time.”
Ma Gyeong-rok nodded in affirmation.
It was a matter worth hearing no more about.
‘It is certainly as the Prophet said. If you build a good system, you can hit the jackpot.’
As for the influx, you can either hire reporters to spread articles or use an advertising agency.
‘The important thing is accessibility. ‘We need to develop an app in advance so that players can use it easily.’
Various ideas popped into Ma Gyeong-rok’s head.
“What do you think about creating an auction system? Raise the value of certain items by directly posting items and allowing everyone to participate.”
“That’s a good idea. It’ll get players interested.”
“And how about this? At the beginning, we attract people by allowing them to register items without a fee. We also create a rating system that gives benefits the more active the transaction.”
“That’s a good idea too.”
Ryu Min grinned at Ma Gyeong-rok’s proactive attitude.
‘It seems like you quite like the business I proposed.’
It was definitely a promising business.
In the future, an era will arrive where players will become the mainstream.
More than anything, they must have been attracted to the fact that it was the first.
‘As a prophet, I can’t help but guarantee it.’
Creating a market for players also benefits Ryumin.
You will be able to easily obtain the items you need.
‘Combination material items whose uses are currently unknown. You have to monopolize them in advance.’
If you purchase the materials, you will be able to easily make not only unique, but also legendary and god-level items.
“We decided on social market as the industry, how should we change the company name?”
“Is there anything that comes to mind?”
Ryu Min asked, but Ma Gyeong-rok shook his head.
“Put my thoughts aside. In times like these, we must proceed according to the future that the Prophet saw. Above all, aren’t you the top management of our company?”
“haha…….”
Since it wasn’t wrong, Ryumin didn’t reject it.
“Well, how about this? It’s called Player Place, meaning the player’s place.”
“It’s called Playplay… It has a perfect connotation. It seems like a good name.”
In fact, he did not know if it was good, but he thought that it was unconditionally correct because it was the words of a prophet.
“Anyway, I have another idea. Would you like to hear what it is?”
“Yes, please tell me.”
Ma Gyeong-rok talked enthusiastically about business.
Ryu Min just listened and then made his decision by evaluating whether he liked it or not, like the final decision maker.
The two people talked so frantically that the ticking sound of the office’s second hand was drowned out.

As a result, I didn’t even realize it was evening.
“Uh… it’s already so late. Would you like to have dinner together?”
“No. I will eat at home. My younger brother is waiting for me.”
“Ah, is that so?”
Ma Gyeong-rok made a sad expression.
It seems like it was quite fun talking about business with Ryumin.
“How long will it take to build and commercialize the system?”
“I think it will take about a month at the earliest.”
“It will be after round 6.”
Ryumin nodded.
About a month is not too late.
“Speaking of which, I will give you information about round 6.”
“Oh, that’s a good thing to hear.”
Ma Gyeong-rok, who was truly happy, listened.
Ahn Sang-cheol, who was next to him, also pretended to be indifferent and focused on Ryu Min’s voice.
Eventually, Ryu Min explained the 6th round.
Points to pay attention to and directions to pursue were presented.
Ma Gyeong-rok, who heard all the information, gave an interested look.
“Hmm, we need cooperation in round 6 as well. I heard you right. Thank you for your words, Prophet.”
“It was nothing.”
Ma Gyeong-rok, who was greeting politely, smiled inwardly.
-As expected, it was a good job to capture the prophet. Thanks to you, I feel like things are going smoothly. In reality and in the other world.
His thoughts were conveyed, but Ryu Min pretended not to notice.
Ma Gyeong-rok probably doesn’t even know in his dreams.
To know that your thoughts are being read one by one by the prophet in front of you.
“Then, we will proceed with the direction of the business as discussed today, and we will hold an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting as soon as possible to pass the agenda. At that time, major shareholder Ryu Min will also have to come and explain the business. Would that be okay?”
It meant that I had to stand up in front of people and explain it, but was it okay?
“Yes, it’s okay.”
“I understand. I will contact you as soon as the date for the general shareholders’ meeting is set. Director Ahn.”
“Yes, representative.”
“Please take me directly to the Prophet’s house. While you’re there, stop by the actor’s house and share information.”
“Okay. Let’s go, Prophet.”

A few days later.
At midnight, Ryu Min opened the store window as if he had been waiting.
★Today’s Item★
[Wanderer’s Rag Clothes]
– Category: Armor
-Rate: Epic
-Defense: 1
-Effect: Attack speed +30%, movement speed +30%
-Durability: 1,000/1,000
-Restrictions on use: Regular grade or higher
-Description: Dirty clothes that are torn and cannot function properly. But there are also advantages.
<Purchase price: 20,000 gold>
<Remaining sale time: 23:59:59>
The long-awaited epic item has arrived.
‘It’s an item with trash defense, but extremely high attack and movement speed.’
The price is a whopping 20,000 gold.
Other players may find the price burdensome.
‘It’s an epic item for 20,000 gold… … . It’s a piece of cake.’
There was no particular blow to Ryu Min, who was overflowing with money.
‘Until a social market is formed, we have no choice but to rely on items from stores.’
In the future, when business prospers and item trading becomes active, there will be no need to worry about stores.
Just buy all the items you need from the market.
‘At that time, you can create any combination of unique or higher items.’
Stores only sell epic items at most.
Anything beyond that must be solved through combination, but it is not easy to find that combination.
‘But I know most of the combinations by heart.’
It’s because I checked all the [design] items with the combination formula written on them repeatedly.
‘If it weren’t for the design items, I wouldn’t have been able to know all the combination methods.’
A design is a simple information item that contains instructions for combining a specific item.
‘I don’t have a blueprint right now, so I’ll try combining things to find out… … .’
Later, as the existence of the design item became known, the number of people looking for the design increased.
This was because there were limits to finding a combination method by ignorantly combining anything.
‘Moreover, certain designs are sold at really high prices. At most, there are only combination instructions written down.’
Imagine learning a god-level combination recipe that you would never normally be able to obtain.
Wouldn’t you want to buy it even if it costs hundreds of millions of dollars?
‘Besides, if you know the information, you can resell it to others.’
That’s why information about combination methods is sold at a high price.
‘I’m already familiar with the information, so designs and such are unnecessary items.’
In that sense, the information that Ryumin possessed had infinite value when converted to money.
‘If it’s my prediction, we’ll be able to make God grade before the 11th round.’
Ryumin, who was smiling, lay down on the bed.
Actually, an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders will be held at 10 o’clock in the morning.
If you want to attend on time, you need to go to bed now.
‘As a major shareholder and top management authority, I cannot miss the general shareholders’ meeting.’
Ryumin closed his eyes early.
The beasts slowly approached.

Roaring Roaring-
Many people gathered at the shareholders’ meeting.
They were all shareholders who invested in Cheonma Consulting.
“Please take the company materials and fill in the seats starting from the front.”
At the entrance, Ahn Sang-cheol handed over a simple brochure to the incoming shareholders.
It was a booklet that introduced the company’s management policy, past performance data, and operating profits.
The shareholders who went inside put the brochures to one side and only looked at the podium.
I already know about today’s agenda because I saw the convening notice.
In a situation like that, there was no way I could see a booklet or anything like that.
‘what? Are you going to change the industry and company name?’
‘Where’s the representative bastard?’
‘Let’s hear what you’re saying.’
Shareholders were eagerly waiting for a representative to appear.
If they say something you don’t understand, they think they will get their investment money back as soon as they leave the shareholders’ meeting.
As time passed, many people gathered, and the promised 10 o’clock arrived.
When the time came, Ma Gyeong-rok, dressed in a neat suit, climbed onto the podium.
“Hello, shareholders. My name is Ma Gyeong-rok, the CEO of Cheonma Consulting and today’s chairman.”
There was no applause that would normally erupt at this point.
Ma Gyeong-rok, who smiled as if this was an expected reaction, declared the meeting open and quickly moved on to the main topic.
“As everyone knows, the reason why we held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders today is to handle important issues.”
The hall was quiet.
It even felt cold.
“It may be sudden, but our company would like to change its name along with changing its industry to consulting.”
“under.”
Did you hear it directly from the CEO’s mouth?
Sighs broke out everywhere.
It was a natural reaction.
I invested in a company called Cheonma Consulting after seeing its vision, and they suddenly decided to take a different route.
Shareholders can’t help but feel absurd and embarrassed.
“Is this the sound of banging on a pole when you are doing well?”
“What kind of industry are you planning to change to?”
“Just do consulting like you do now!”
“Go to sleep, calm down.”
Some impatient shareholders made a fuss, but Ma Gyeong-rok did not lose his smile.
“First of all, our major shareholder, who holds 51% of the shares and has top management rights, will tell you about the change in industry. Major shareholder?”
At Ma Gyeong-rok’s call, a person came up to the stage.
“Hello, my name is Ryu Min, and I have recently taken over the management rights of Cheonma Consulting.”
All shareholders who saw Ryu Min were surprised.
A young man who must have just turned 20 was claiming to be the top manager.
