How a Calamity Necromancer Retires

“hello. I am reporter Kim of the Jeonbuk Ilbo.”

“Nice to meet you.”

“Then we will proceed with the interview. Recently, the Seaway site was chosen as Jeonju. What is the reason?”

“First of all, I would like to say that I only recommend a site to Seaway, but I do not select a site myself.”

Of course, it’s bullsh*t.

In the first place, since I didn’t want to create a joint venture, I devised the collaboration company system, so in fact, Seaway and I are in a partnership relationship.

In addition, the factory could not operate without a skeleton, so I had absolute say in site selection.

It’s just that I don’t want to place a skeleton there, and insisting that I like it there is enough.

Nevertheless, the reason I said that I was only recommending was to show that I was not actively involved.

Naturally, this was Yun Ho-chang telling me that it would be better to say this.

“Jeonju is a city with the most human infrastructure in Jeonbuk. However, there are no large companies around, so young people continue to flow to the metropolitan area. At this time, I recommended it because I thought that a large foreign company’s factory would create a great synergistic effect.”

“Is it simply that? They argued that it was too strange for the current governor Kim Dae-oh to be confirmed as a site within a week of campaigning, and that he had already selected a site in public opinion and informed Candidate Ho-chang Yun of it.”

I said with a puzzled expression.

“Did I pre-select and let you know? Why do I do that?”

“They said it was to help Candidate Ho-Chang Yun.”

“So why am I, I am a person who has nothing to do with politics. Of course, there is a relationship with Candidate Ho-chang Yun, but that is a relationship that was created by Sae-ron in Gunsan City, not a personal relationship at all. but······.”

“but?”

“It is true that Candidate Ho-Chang Yun came to visit us every evening and endlessly explained why Seaway was suitable for Jeonju, which influenced the site selection. It actually worked out well.”

“Then why did you announce it within a week? Because of this, controversy arose over political intervention.”

“I am an Awoken person, but I am a businessman before that. If you find a good site, shouldn’t you build a factory as soon as possible to grow your business? That’s why I announced the site without much thought, but I didn’t know that this would lead to political intervention. So, from now on, I plan to postpone the site announcement for foreign conglomerates until after the primary.”

The reporter said with a surprised expression.

“Are you saying that there are other foreign conglomerates besides Cway?”

“Yes. We will be announcing soon, and there are things we are talking about right now.”

It is true that Yun Ho-chang persuaded him, but he said that my decision had nothing to do with political intentions, and secretly leaked that there might be more similar situations in the future.

Also, the purpose of this interview is to make it easier for Yun Ho-chang to maneuver by saying that he will announce the site only after the primary.

With this, Yun Ho-chang’s ability has been verified, and at the same time, he will be able to make promises as many times as he wants in the future.

“ah. And when you write an article, be sure to emphasize this. I do not support a specific candidate or political party, and I only consider business feasibility.”

In the first place, only candidates for sites with commercial feasibility were selected and handed over to Yun Ho-chang, so there will be no back talk after all of these have been selected later.

“All right.”

“Then, is this the end of the interview?”

“ah. In the meantime, can I ask you some other questions?”

Do some service today, well.

“Do it.”

“Recently, Seron Development’s production of rare earths has increased, and combined with Japan, it has achieved a global share of 6%….”

*

As soon as the interview ends, Yun Ho-chang’s approval rating continues to rise.

Of course, Yun Ho-chang really succeeded in persuading me, and new foreign conglomerates are coming in from now on, so by any chance in our area? I have a mind to do it.

Naturally, Yun Ho-chang began to actively use this.

Yun Ho-chang, who traveled all over Jeollabuk-do and continued to raise his approval rating by using promises to attract large companies.

When the situation turned out like this, Kim Dae-oh must have been taken aback.

“Chairman Han, aren’t you really pushing Yun Ho-chang?”

Why are you looking for me like this?

“No. When did you see me getting along with a politician?”

“Then why…”

“For some reason, the only thing I could do was announce the site for Seaway, but I just did it without thinking.”

“Kuk!”

But that one would be fatal.

In fact, thanks to Yun Ho-chang’s words coming true, people started to have expectations for his promise.

Having expectations in one’s own words is an enormous power for a politician.

“I didn’t even know it would turn out like this. Instead, it was revealed in the interview, but in the future, the site announcement will be postponed until after the primary.”

“…If you really have nothing to do with it, can I ask for a little help?”

“What are you asking for?”

“Seaway site selection, is it possible to change?”

Are you going to hurt Yun Ho-chang’s credibility?

sorry but that doesn’t work

“Are you going to reverse the announcement?”

“Instead, if I am re-elected as governor, I will actively cooperate with Seron to create a special trade zone where foreign companies can do business comfortably.”

Even if you don’t have it, if Yun Ho-chang is elected, that’s what he was going to do using the provincial governor’s urban planning rights.

What if… If I really had no idea and had nothing to do with Yun Ho-chang, it’s an offer I could accept, saying it wouldn’t be bad, but isn’t it now?

I shook my head and said.

“sorry. Although it was chosen by Seaway, it is our public opinion that was officially announced, and reversing this will adversely affect the credibility of our group.”

“I understand. But please.”

Kim Dae-oh gritted his teeth and said.

“It doesn’t matter if I lose to the ruling party candidate in the general election. That’s because it’s a matter of party approval ratings. However, if I lose to a newcomer like Yun Ho-chang in the primary within the party, which determines the candidates to be expelled from the party, the very foundation I have built in the party may be shaken.”

From nob le mtl dot com

Most of them are national first-class politicians who have a great say in the party and have their own power to the extent of serving as governors.

However, such a national first-class politician loses to Yun Ho-chang, a newcomer who has only served once as mayor and once as a city council member, in the election of candidates within the party, not the election with the rival party?

This is a shocking event that goes beyond the level of humiliation and may even destroy the foundation itself built by the party.

After all, politicians live on popularity, but there are no people who will believe and follow politicians who have fallen in popularity.

“Please, Chairman Han.”

“hmm······.”

I pretended to be worried for a while and said.

“sorry. No matter how much you think about it, that’s not possible. Wouldn’t that cause controversy over political intervention again? Seron is influenced by politics and does business? I don’t want to hear that.”

But that also means that if Yoon Ho-chang, a rookie, beats Kim Dae-oh, a national ambulance, and becomes the provincial governor, he will instantly become a rising dark horse.

And that’s exactly what I want.

So if Yun Ho-chang is my word, it won’t be long.

Because I am the one who creates and maintains Yun Ho-chang’s political foundation.

“Chairman Han!”

I waved my hand and said.

“I don’t want to get involved with real politics. How difficult it was when I selected the site this time and Governor Kim Dae-oh raised suspicions. So I just don’t want to get involved.”

“I was sorry about that. But then, wouldn’t it be better if Chairman Han didn’t listen to Yun Ho-chang’s story in the first place?”

“You express that you heard it again. Then, Governor Kim Dae-oh, just as Candidate Ho-chang Yoon has made documents at the level of a thesis on why Seaway should be located in Jeonju, come find the reason why Seaway shouldn’t be in Jeonju. I am a businessman, so I will withdraw as much as I can for good reasons.”

Of course, there are no papers at the level of such a thesis, of course.

Eventually, Kim Dae-oh got up from his seat.

“Let’s go.”

“yes. Go carefully.”

Kim Dae-oh, who went back without any results.

“Politicians live one day after all.”

You can become famous and popular, then go down, or suddenly become a lightning star overnight.

In contrast to Kim Dae-oh, who is now cornered, Yun Ho-chang, whose approval rating continues to rise, is exactly the same.

But money and power are forever.

“ruler. Shall we wait for the results now?”

*

Yun Ho-chang, traveling all over Jeollabuk-do, pledged to attract foreign conglomerates in each region.

Against him, Kim Dae-oh pledged his political career and stability, as well as attracting foreign conglomerates like Yun Ho-chang.

Of course, it was a fake card that had never been discussed with me in advance, but since the party members did not know the internal situation, there were people who supported Kim Dae-oh again.

However, what Kim Dae-oh does not have is a track record of successful attraction.

Yun Ho-chang promised to attract Cway in Jeonju and put it into practice, and at the same time even confirmed that I was right in an interview, so there’s no way I could be an opponent.

“Congratulations, Governor Yun Ho-chang.”

Then Yun Ho-chang smiled brightly and said.

“You’re the governor. There are still finals left.”

“Honestly, in Jeonbuk, primary is the final.”

It is a real election that various parties elect their candidates through primary elections, and the elected candidates compete against each other.

I looked at Yun Ho-chang and said.

“How are you feeling?”

“Honestly, I feel like flying. I thought it was a position that had no connection with me anymore.”

Yun Ho-chang lowered his head and said.

“Thank you very much, Chairman Han.”

“It was nothing. Try hard, because Saeron will continue to push Jeonbuk hard. Therefore, the position of governor of Jeonbuk must never be taken away.”

I made him a provincial governor at best, but it would be difficult if the wrong guy took over his seat.

“of course.”

“Besides, do you know? I will later use this career to go to a higher place.”

Now, Seron is barely covering Jeonbuk, but in the future, Seron will grow bigger and bigger.

At that time, perhaps the entire Republic of Korea will come within the sphere of influence?

Isn’t that enough to go beyond the provincial governor?

“Somewhere higher…?”

“It’s just like that. Let’s not get too excited, us.”

“All right.”

“Good luck with the rest of the election.”

“of course.”

I said while shaking hands with Yun Ho-chang.

“Good luck in the future, good friend.”

As expected, in the main election, Hochang was elected governor of Jeonbuk Province, beating the candidate of the rival party lightly.

As soon as he was elected, Yun Ho-chang began to move aggressively, such as first proposing to the government to establish a special trade zone in Jeonbuk.

“I like being proactive.”

okay.

Let’s create a special trade zone like that and give it a lot of benefits to attract more partners.

“ruler. From now on, the political side will only have to push Yun Ho-chang.”

Yun Ho-chang, who won against Kim Dae-oh, quickly emerged as the dark horse of the opposition party.

Now that the political greed that had faded has been activated again, Yun Ho-chang will actively build a base within the party, even for himself.

“As expected, it is best to leave politics to politicians.”

Yun Ho-chang, who received my influence, is active in politics, and I just work hard to earn money.

how good is it

“ah. right.”

I opened and read the letters handed to me in the secretary’s office.

“President, thank you. It is all thanks to the chairman that I, who could no longer work due to a leg injury, got a job at Seron Rental and worked as a pilot.”

A person who was unable to work due to a lower body injury while working at a construction site expresses gratitude for being able to work again after getting a job as a pilot who does not need to use his legs.

I said with a smile on my face.

“It has such a positive effect.”

Are you feeling good?

Anyway, I am a human being too, how could I feel bad after receiving such a heartfelt letter.

I continued to check the other letters.

“oh. I wanted to work because I needed a lot of money, but women said I wouldn’t accept it, and while I was in despair, I’m working thanks to a skeleton for construction?”

An unmanned skeleton that allows people with disabilities or weak strength, such as women, to do the same things as everyone else.

I didn’t make it for this kind of thing, but I like it quite a bit.

“Would you like to make a skeleton for the weak?”

I feel good, so I get interested in things that don’t make money.

“A skeleton wearable for assisting mobility that aids movement when worn by a person with a lower body disability. I think this is possible.”

Sometimes you have to do some good things.

That way my image won’t be better either.

“oh! Wouldn’t it be nice to put something like a wheelchair transformation function in there?”

Of course, the reason why I was able to think of others so generously, tired of being annoyed, was that I didn’t have to create the algorithms needed for this job.

I sent a text message to Center Director Baek Sang-ho on my cell phone.

“Studying a skeleton to assist the disabled.”

If that’s the case, I’ll do my research.

Then, I either lend the skeleton to the weak at a low cost, or request the government to receive state subsidies for the skeleton for the weak.

If I do this, I’ll get compliments and I’ll feel good too, so it’s perfect.

Of course, I don’t know how much money I’ll make by doing this, because this is my patronage business in the first place.

“This is almost a machine, a machine.”

Literally, a machine controlled and used by the weak.

Of course, it is possible to create a nursing skeleton that takes care of everything and apply an automatic algorithm, but then the nursing staff’s job could be dangerous, so this is just right.

“good. Then I made this… Huh? wait for a sec. machine?”

Skeletons were exactly halfway between workers and machines.

It is possible to do detailed work like a human, but at the same time, like a machine, it is the skeleton that repeats the same motion indefinitely.

And I’ve been using this to actively promote a business that requires a lot of labor.

But again, this means that the middle position, the skeleton, can be a worker, but it can also be a machine at the same time.

“Automated equipment in automobile factories, these are all machines.”

Not just car factories.

This is because automation equipment using machines was increasing in proportion as labor costs increased.

“Why don’t you go to the realm of machines instead of workers?”

A robot, to be exact.

For example, instead of an automated robot that assembles a door in a car factory, a skeleton made of bones is placed.

Since these are no longer human domains, there will be no job disputes, and they will be free from the crazy voice of taxing each and every skeleton.

“Besides, those robots and machines are filthy expensive.”

It’s because those robots are ridiculously overpriced.

In addition, since each factory has different products and processes, it is necessary to order an automated robot optimized for that factory.

Of course, it’s ridiculous to borrow like heavy equipment, and you have to buy it with all the money that exceeds 100 million won.

However, the skeleton can be remade by modifying the algorithm at any time or dismantling it, so it is free from that restriction, so rental rather than sale is possible.

“Ohh?”

Automating process is the most costly thing when growing or starting a new business.

But at this time, what if you rent a cheap and efficient skeleton instead of selling it at a much lower price than an automated robot?

From the point of view of companies, the price of automation equipment, which is the most burdensome, can be overwhelmingly saved, so isn’t this a win-win?

“There are many types of machines and robots, and each factory has so many different jobs to do, so it’s a problem to coordinate them one by one, but that’s all you need to do is replace the center manager Baek and the instructors.”

Of course, it is necessary to approach with caution.

This is because the boundary between skeletons to replace robots and skeletons to replace workers can become ambiguous.

In other words, it can be argued that after replacing the work that required human hands with a skeleton, they introduced an automated machine rather than a worker.

“Then, let’s first classify robot skeletons as those that perform tasks at a level beyond human strength and speed.”

If that’s the case, then there won’t be any problems.

I said with my eyes shining.

“okay. Now we are going to the skeleton industry, not the robot industry.”
