Franchise God Episode 1625

347. The enemy is sharpening the Vulcan gun (7)

Koh Won-jae, who learned about the current state of meat prices in the United States through Freedom, was surprised once again.

“Wow, meat prices are crazy. Wasn’t America originally famous for cheap meat?”

“That was in the past. That was also a swimming farm.

“Thanks to you, we are able to prevent it.”

“Is this prevention?”

“Yes. If there had been no swimming farms, America would have collapsed during the last year’s famine. We wouldn’t have had to worry about the price of meat. We would have had a hard time finding even a loaf of bread to eat right away.”

Freedom gave Go Won-jae a brief overview of the food supply and demand situation around the world, including in the United States.

“Thirty percent of the calories consumed in the United States come from farmed fish. But that’s based on data collected before the Great Famine. Starting this year, the numbers are completely different.”

“how?”

“The U.S. livestock industry relies on swimmer feed for more than 60 percent of its feed. Just by factoring in that number, the calorie share jumps from 30 percent to over 50 percent.”

Go Won-jae felt a chill run down his spine.

I don’t know much about the economy, but I can tell that the United States is in a very precarious situation right now.

“But why is Washington so impatient to take up arms?”

“Because many citizens want a satisfying punishment.”

“What a refreshing punishment. What is this… … .”

Go Won-jae, who had been crying, soon calmed his eyes.

“Well, I said I wasn’t supposed to worry about celebrities and America. Okay. Let’s open an online auction and sell it. How do I do that?”

“I will take care of it myself.”

“Please.”

So the online auction was held.

The product that Go Won-jae is offering is the ownership of meat that can be purchased with 100 million HA of palm oil. In Korea, it means 100 million won worth of meat.

“The auction is over. It was sold for 1.8235 billion won.”

“You left 18 times?”

“The expected profit from investing in crude oil trading was 125 million won.”

Even just making a 25% profit in a short period of time is huge.

But when he saw the 18-fold profit, Go Won-jae’s eyes lit up.

“The American meat market is really crazy.”

“The entire grocery market is going crazy. And this online auction wasn’t just ours. There were a lot of other users participating as well.”

“What does that mean?”

“There are only two Goldilocks Zone users, but there are currently over 3 million users farming and earning farm income. Of course, that number is tiny.”

They eventually figured out a way.

Even in a harsh environment, they succeeded in cultivating ‘wild crops’ that could generate farm income.

Although it boasted extreme inefficiency to the point where it had to pour out black hole energy just to maintain a single palm-sized field… … .

“They also wanted to make money by looking at the US prices and using palm oil, but the units of money were so small that they couldn’t make proper transactions. Thanks to our investment of 100 million and the opening of an online market, they also participated by paying a commission.”

It is said that when Go Won-jae, who also served as the leader, took up arms and set up a stall on the street, other street vendors also flocked there carrying bundles of goods.

“How much is the unit?”

“The largest palm tree among the participants was 19,300 HA.”

“……ah.”

You have 100 million, and the second place has 19,300.

Go Won-jae suddenly lowered his head.

“Then that person must have left more than 18 times?”

“Since we combined all HAs and made a bulk transaction, the rate of return is the same. We earned 351,935 won, which is 18.235 times the profit, and we received 4% as a transaction fee.”

“Oh, wait? So my total income is more than 1.8235 billion won?”

“If you add up the HA of all the additional participants, it is 4.632 billion won, and it was sold for 84.46452 billion won, and 3.378588 billion won came in as a commission.

There are less than 20,000 participants with the most HA, but when you add them all up, it comes to 4.632 billion HA.

Is this why numbers are scary?

“More than 99% of users who own HA participated in this online auction. Everyone is very excited about when the next auction will be held.”

If roughly 3 million people participated, does that mean each person spent less than 1,600 won on average?

‘Still, I guess everyone earned the price of a chicken or two.’

“But from what I heard, it seems like the CTW2022 player didn’t participate.”

“That user has no reason to participate. He can open the auction on his own.”

“I guess so.”

The first Goldilocks user, rumored to have made a fortune by eating palm oil rice.

I became very curious about what kind of person Go Won-jae was.

* * *

“I don’t know why there are rumors that I made billions of dollars. I haven’t even made a hundred billion dollars yet.”

Choi Tae-woong, user name CTW2022.

He is the first Goldilocks user in Palmbus and a naval petty officer who follows Ha Su-yeong. He is known to spend money lavishly, so he is highly trusted by everyone.

He was currently looking into yachts.

“You’re a petty officer in the Navy, but you should at least have a yacht.”

“If His Majesty the Marshal had heard this, he would have been pleased and called it a great example of a great navy.”

“Even though I’m just a junior sergeant, how could I not become like him when I’m in his position as my superior?”

“The only sergeant who uses his own money to buy a yacht for the romantic welfare of his junior non-commissioned officers and soldiers is Sergeant Choi Tae-woong.”

“Your Majesty the Marshal used his own money to improve the welfare of the entire Navy, so this is too shameful.”

Sergeant Choi Tae-woong has recently received a lot of counseling about problems related to relationships.

‘Sergeant, even if my girlfriend comes to visit, there’s no place to hang out nearby.’

‘It seems like a waste of time to travel to Busan city or Jeju Island.’

‘I wish there was a place to play around here.’

There is a well-developed commercial area around the base.

However, the limitations of local businesses relying on the naval base are also clear.

It has everything it needs, but I feel like the quality isn’t quite there.

Especially considering that thanks to the development of SNS, you can enjoy the lively atmosphere of a weekend Gangnam club anywhere, it is a shame that it is not located near the naval base.

So Choi Tae-woong decided to buy a private yacht and run a party place on the sea that would be open 365 days a year.

“The juniors and soldiers should not fail in their marriages because of the limitations of being soldiers.”

“That is a very valid point.”

“But yachts are really expensive. It would be difficult to achieve the quality I’m looking for with something costing a few hundred million won.”

“It should be at least 100 meters long so that we can fit a helicopter and a party room. Above all, a swimming pool is a must for a luxury yacht.”

“Should I just close my eyes and add one more zero?”

“It would have to be worth about 300 to 400 billion won to satisfy the successors who go out on weekends. How about these yachts?”

“She’s really pretty. She came to visit me, but if we let her play and sleep here, my girlfriends would like it.”

All the yachts Freedom showed were attractive.

It feels like a luxury hotel floating on the sea.

For a lover who has come from a long way to visit, it may feel as if they have gone on an expensive trip to a resort in the Maldives.

“I can’t help it. I have to use the HA I’ve been stockpiling.”

“Are you finally selling it?”

“I have been refraining from using HA due to concerns about inflation, but these days, food is so scarce in foreign countries that it seems okay to use HA liberally.”

“The US market is doing well. The second Goldilocks user sold 100 million HA and made a profit of more than 18 times.”

“America, that’s okay. The latecomer has finally taken the lead, and I don’t want to get involved and ruin it. The HA needed to buy a yacht is not cheap.”

“Then are you thinking of Europe or China?”

“No, I’m going to give it a try in the Middle East.”

“The Middle East has a relatively abundant food situation, so it would be difficult for it to make as much profit as the United States.”

“The biggest revenue from the sale of meat items in the future will be in the Arab world, where insect meat is prohibited by law, so there is no other option.”

No matter what happens, insect meat cannot be sold in the Arab world.

In the end, Arab countries have no choice but to buy traditional meats, no matter how expensive they are.

“In my opinion, cultured meat is wrong. Tiny Meat has already established itself and will be phased out. It costs a lot of money right now and there is no guarantee of profit, so who would invest?”

“If they are cornered, the Arab world will allow tiny meats, or Islam itself will fall in an uprising.”

“Freedom, that’s because you don’t understand the madness of human religion.”

“If every citizen has to pay tens of thousands of dollars to buy 100 grams of meat, it makes sense to include insects as halal food. Or is the religion itself being denied?”

“If humans were so rationally flexible in religion, there would never have been so many religious wars. I am sure that insect meat would never be allowed in Arab countries.”

Freedom was silent for a few seconds before responding.

“I understand what you said, Master. I was able to confirm once again the human perspective that I had been missing. Thank you.”

“First, I will put 50 billion HA up for auction.”

“Yes. Then we will prepare the auction and announce the event to Middle Eastern players.”

“Wait a minute, I’m not selling HA for dollars, euros or won.”

“yes?”

“I’m selling 50 billion HA. And the bidder can only buy HA with a yacht he or she owns. I’ll sell HA to the person who looks the best among the yachts listed.”

“This… … . How did you come up with this method? I am becoming more and more like His Majesty the Marshal day by day. I respect you.”

“Haha, that’s embarrassing.”

“Okay, then I will notify players in the Middle East to participate in the auction with their personal yachts.”

Even if you order a yacht right now, it will take at least two years to receive it.

However, if you already own a yacht, you can have it delivered within a month.

“You know? If you try to bid on a ridiculously cheap yacht… … .”

“Don’t worry, I’ll cut it in advance.”

So another Palm Bus auction was held.

Users who had already participated in Gowonjae’s online auction and gotten a lot of money for a few chickens were running excitedly.

Although I don’t have much HA since I sold it once, everyone was curious about what the online auction held by STW2022 would be like.

-Wow, you’re selling 50 billion HA in a lump sum?

-This is seriously awesome. As expected, he’s the first Goldilocks user.

-What? It’s a private auction?

– But in the US, meat prices have risen by more than 10 times, and because there is no quantity, they have surplus of more than 18 times. In Arab countries, meat prices have not risen by that much, right?

Since the auction was held privately, many players wondered how much profit they would make.

Meanwhile, Choi Tae-woong was flustered when he received a flood of bid documents that were far more numerous than he had expected.

“I didn’t know there would be this many entries. I thought there would be at most twenty.”

“How many people in the Arab world own yachts?”

“Wow, even oil tycoons play Palm Bus.”

After careful examination, Choi Tae-woong chose the yacht he liked the most.

“No matter how I look at it, this yacht seems to be the best. Do you think I got a good look at it?”

“Of course. This is a cruise ship. Excluding the interior, the price of the ship itself is 800 billion won.”

“Who the hell sells this?”

“This is the Saudi Crown Prince’s private cruise.”
