Chapter 758 – How to Become a Guild Leader (1)
The original copy of ‘Ice Lord’s Snowy Mountain’, a B-level dungeon handed over from Do Ye-hee, was decided to be stored on one of the islands owned by Do-kyung Group in Southeast Asia.
Apparently, the best place to store the original dungeon was a deserted island. In addition to keeping the gate safe, we were able to minimize damage even if a monster wave occurred.
Actually, when I first received it, I had no idea where to store it. The only land I own is the old city center of Chuncheon, which corresponds to Area C of the abandoned village, and it was obvious that if I installed the original Dungeon Gate there, problems would arise later.
There was a high possibility that my plan to create a nationwide guild centered around Chuncheon City would go wrong, so it was Do Ye-hee who introduced me to the location where I would store the dungeon.
“Where will you install the original dungeon gate?”
“…”
“… By any chance, you haven’t thought about it yet?”
“I think securing comes first. “I will install it in a corner of the old abandoned village for a while and then move it when I get the chance.”
“… I can already hear the sound of falling land prices in Chuncheon City. “As a businessman, I don’t think I can listen to this, so I’d like to suggest it to you in reverse.”
What came back with those words was to install a warp gate on one of the uninhabited islands owned by Do Kyung Group that Do Ye Hee mentioned.
As expected from the Dokyung Group, whose main business is construction, the family owned unclaimed islands in various parts of the world.
It was said that the uninhabited island where Sihee and I went on vacation last year was originally planned to be used as a tourist attraction, not as a personal villa for the Do-kyung group. I heard that it was so far from the mainland that it was forced to be used only for personal purposes.
They had already acquired it, but since there were many islands left unused due to lack of business feasibility, they said they would help them use one of them to store the gate.
“If you have the means to move this large dungeon gate from Tioman Island to Korea, it would be much better for you to move it to an island in Southeast Asia rather than far away to Korea. “Isn’t that right?”
“The distance itself isn’t a big problem, but if it can be stored on one of the uninhabited islands like you said, that’s good news for me.”
“Then that’s a relief. “I was also very interested in the development of the former Chuncheon city area, so I thought about what I would do if land prices fell.”
“Huh?”
What started right away with those words was Do Ye-hee’s business plan related to the redevelopment of Chuncheon City.
It was ridiculous to see Do Ye-hee lying naked in her bed the night before and presenting her business plan with a serious expression in the morning, but it seemed to be a very important part of her anyway.
I didn’t think it was strange in that regard either and treated it with a certain amount of respect. Anyway, I was quite interested in Do Ye-hee’s proposal.
“We are planning to build a large-scale apartment complex in the abandoned village that was formerly Chuncheon City. With the news that the monster wave in Chuncheon City has already been liberated, land prices around the area have been fluctuating since the beginning of this year. “As a businessman, this is unbearable.”
“That’s right.”
“That’s why I propose it to you. First of all, let’s talk about the indicators regarding the land of the apartment complex and the unit price profit by household…”
Do Ye-hee was trying hard to explain things like housing sales prices and profitability in front of me, but of course I, who had never worked in the construction industry, couldn’t understand the content properly.
The only thing I learned after a long conversation is that Do Ye-hee wants to buy some of the abandoned village land I own and build ten apartments.
It meant giving me enough land to build a large-scale apartment complex on the condition that I would be allowed to use an uninhabited island in Southeast Asia.
“I appreciate the offer of a place to store the warp gate, but I think it’s a bit unfair to exchange the land where a large-scale apartment complex will be built for an uninhabited island.”
“… “You didn’t listen to my business plan.”
“I heard it. The plan is to build a ten-apartment complex on land in District C of an abandoned village. … “I couldn’t understand what was being said except for that part, so I listened to it a little bit.”
“I told you clearly! Lending Dokyung Group’s uninhabited island is simply a favor on my part, and I will definitely pay the full price to acquire the land corresponding to the former Chuncheon City! “All I want is your promise to sell me the land so I can build an apartment on it?!”
“Ah, that’s what I meant…”
Do Ye-hee, who realized that the business plan she had talked about for 30 minutes had lost any meaning, looked angry with a red face.
What should I do? I’m not particularly in the construction industry, nor am I a government official who came to audit the redevelopment project. It should have been explained simply like this from the beginning.
The offer to lend an uninhabited island was simply a favor, and they seemed to be adding an explanation that they would purchase the land after calculating both the publicly announced and actual transaction prices at the time of the transaction. As long as you promise to sell the land in Area C of the abandoned village, which is currently in a suspended transaction state, at the time of the transaction.
The deserted island they offered to lend me to store the dungeon gate was simply an offer to buy me favor.
Anyway, I had no reason to refuse when he offered to buy the useless large piece of land I owned at full price. Anyway, in the process, I was able to obtain the Dungeon Gate Storage that I needed most right now.
As a result, the Dokyung Group reached an agreement to receive the building rights to build ten apartments in the former Chuncheon City area and the right to purchase land in the area. Since it wasn’t just a matter of one or two pennies being exchanged, there were quite a few contracts exchanged.
“It will probably be around the end of this year that the transaction suspension in that region is lifted. At that time, we will begin the land transaction according to the contents of this contract, and as a bonus, we will also begin the remodeling of the old Chuncheon City Hall, which you plan to use as a new guild.”
“Okay, then.”
-Knock, knock, knock.
“Sir, the warp gate technician will be arriving shortly. Please prepare quickly.”
“Okay, Seolhwa. “I will prepare and leave soon with Seong Tae-kyung.”
Do Ye-hee and I got ready to go out when we heard that the warp gate technician had arrived.
After that, I went out with Do Ye-hee and helped the technician installing the warp gate in front of the dungeon gate. After confirming that the warp gate that goes back and forth between the inside and outside of the ‘Ice Lord’s Snow Mountain’ was installed, I went to the dungeon gate where the warp gate installation was completed and the entrance and exit. I stored all of the dragon warp gates in my subspace pocket.
I don’t know about the warp gate for entry, but the dungeon gate was a fairly large item, so it took up more than half of the capacity of a fairly large subspace pocket, but it wasn’t a problem if it was going to be stored on another nearby island in Southeast Asia anyway.
“…”
“…”
“…”
Yehee, Seolhwa, and the gate developer looked at me in bewilderment when they saw the dungeon gate disappearing into a pocket of subspace as soon as I touched it.

A full week has passed since I went to Tioman Island after hearing that Do Ye-hee had discovered a dungeon.
The situation felt a little awkward when I saw him swallowing the entire dungeon gate using a subspace pouch, but it was an ability that had to be shown at least once.
Do Ye-hee will continue to introduce profitable dungeons to me in the future only if I can clearly show that I have the ability to retrieve the dungeon gate.
Thanks to this, in the process of moving from Tioman Island to the uninhabited island introduced by Do Ye-hee, I was able to become friends with a woman who was a warp gate technician. Since he is a warp gate engineer, he must have a special connection with dungeon gates, and he would know more about dungeons that were profitable in this way but could not be recovered due to unfavorable circumstances.
In addition, I was able to ask him to install a warp gate and make it for the guild as a bonus, so it wasn’t a bad relationship.
The dungeon gate I obtained that day is currently installed on an island in Southeast Asia. Thanks to my storage method that reduces the volume and weight to zero, it wasn’t that difficult to move.
And since the warp gate leading into the dungeon was currently stored in my subspace pocket, the minimum conditions for opening a guild were somehow created with this.
Because we have somehow secured all three essential elements: headquarters, hunter, and dungeon.
‘First of all, we have secured the people who will nominally be named as founding members, and we have also secured a dungeon to use as an initial profit model. Do Ye-hee said that the headquarters building remodeling will begin in November of this year, so it could be officially launched early next year.’
Roughly speaking, if I could secure just one or two more dungeons and prepare them by December, I would become the guild leader of a decent guild. … Of course, before that, the final documents to establish the guild remained.
Five letters of recommendation to be submitted with your Guild-approved permit.
Of course, I didn’t receive a letter of recommendation from just anyone. There was a requirement that all five letters of recommendation for opening a hunter guild in Korea had to be written by S-level or higher hunters.
Since I am an S-class hunter, even if I could replace one copy, I had no choice but to go around and get the remaining four copies from each person.
‘Under the current situation, even if I could gather everyone I know, I think three tickets would be the limit.’
I decided to think about where to get the rest later, but for now, it was time to secure what I could get my hands on one by one.
Sister Eunyoung, senior Hwayoung, and CEO Okhee Seo.
I had already decided in my mind which of the three I should go to first.
… If you had to get it from all three people anyway, it would have been better to persuade the most difficult person first.
