: Heh, I Have My Ways
<strong>TL: Hanguk</strong>
[The Towers Administrator is furious, asking who would put such an effect on grapes.]
[Aileen~nim, I apologize! I will be careful next time!]
While Podori was being scolded by Aileen,
Hehehe. Delicious.
Kuehehehe. Kueng!
[Hehehe. Theyre really sweet!]
Uhihi! This is really tasty!
Sejun, Cuengi, and Ajax were enjoying the golden grapes created by Podori, eating 6 each fairly.
Why six each, you might ask?
-Hahaha! Podori, youve done well.
-Try eating one of these grapes with alcohol. Its killer!
-Oh! Youre right!
-Wow! If we ferment alcohol with this
They had given 3 grapes each to the four dragons who came to see Podori.
While they were happily eating the golden grapes,
Tier-nim, do you want to buy this?
Sejun showed Tier the Poison Detoxifying Japanese Pumpkin.
-A Poison Detoxifying Japanese Pumpkin?! Ill buy it!
Tier said he would buy it without a second of hesitation, just by hearing its name. Anything sold by Sejun is a must-buy!
Please try it first and then decide on the price.
-Alright.
Snap.
Tier swallowed the Japanese pumpkin offered by Sejun whole.
***
Purple Tower Administrator Area.
Well since its from Sejun, its effectiveness is guaranteed.
Chomp. Chomp.
Tier ate the whole Japanese pumpkin Sejun gave him.
Although it didnt taste great raw, he was excited to see what effect it would have this time.
Then,[You have consumed a Poison Detoxifying Japanese Pumpkin.]
[It will expel Heart Poison.]
Ugh!
With the message, he felt a severe pain in his heart,
Gag!
And Tier vomited a red orb.
Then,
Oh! The size of the Heart Poison has halved!
Tier was delighted to see the size of the Heart Poison residing in his heart had reduced.
The red orb he just spat out was part of the nasty Heart Poison that had been attached to his heart.
It was possible to reduce the size of Heart Poison to a certain extent with Detoxifying Green Onions, but not to remove itpletely.
If I reduce the size of Heart Poison with Detoxifying Green Onions and then eat this pumpkin
It was possible topletely cure the Heart Poison.
I guess Ill have to pay more than 1 billion Tower Coins each for these pumpkins?
If it could remove Heart Poison, money was no object.
Then, I should start gathering money.
Tier hurriedly called the purple dragons to earn money.
The purple dragons went out of the tower to extinguish the red mist far away, earning Tower Coins.
In the past, there was a lot of red mist just a little way out of the tower, but these days, thepetition was fierce.
And naturally, thepetition was only among the ck, white, red, and purple dragons.

[Master Sejun likes these grapes! Ill give you more nutritional supplements, so make more grapes!]
mie, seeing Sejun enjoying the golden grapes, handed a ton of nutritional supplements to Podori.
[What?! More Nutritional supplements?!]
Podori was shocked to see about 100 nutritional supplements.
Podori thought she wouldnt need to eat these nutritional supplements anymore once she became the World Tree but the number had significantly increased instead.
But Podori was too scared of mie to rebel.
[Yes]
Since Im making them, I should make delicious grapes for Sejun-nim.
While Podori was absorbing the nutritional supplements,[You have achieved the feat of removing Heart Poison with a Poison Detoxifying Japanese Pumpkin.]
[As a reward for achieving the feat, the growth speed of Poison Detoxifying Japanese Pumpkin increases by 10 times for a week.]
An achievement message appeared in front of Sejun. The pumpkin had the desired effect.
But to increase the growth speed by 10 times?!
This isnt the time to just sit around!
Bouncing up.
Sejun hurriedly ran to the farm.
And,
Slice. Slice.
He quickly cut the top off the pumpkin to scrape out the seeds and,
Boom.
<em>Land Moving.</em>
He nted all the pumpkin seeds at once with Mylers hoe.[You have nted 25,000 seeds of Poison Detoxifying Japanese Pumpkin in the magic-infused soil.]
[Your job experience points have slightly increased.]
[Your proficiency of Magic Seed Sowing Lv. 8 has slightly increased.]
[You have created a pumpkin field of 330,000 square meters.]
[You have gained 200,000 experience points.]
[You cannot umte experience points as the job quest is notpleted.]
Messages appeared.
Hehehe. Now I just have to wait a week
And nearly a million pumpkins could be harvested.
Sejun looked at the field where the pumpkins were nted with a satisfied expression when[The size of your owned farm has exceeded 33 million square meters.]
[Talent: Myriad Landlord grows into a Large Landlord.]
Suddenly, the size of thend managed by Sejun exceeded 33 million square meters, and his talent grew.
Huh? A Large Landlord?
Sejun checked his talent in surprise.[Talent: Large Landlord]
-This acquired talent is only avable to farmers who own over 33 million square meters of farnd.
-You can designate up to 100 farm managers to manage the farm on behalf of thendlord.
-You can designate up to 1,000 guards to protect the farm. (You receive 50% of the experience points from enemies defeated by the guards within 10 km of the Landlord.)
-You can designate an unlimited number of tenant farmers.
-Tenant farmers can use thendholders farming skills. (Thendholder receives a 10% skill proficiency reward when a tenant farmer uses their skill.)
-The talent grows as the size of the farm increases.
Wow!
The talent increased, and all the numbers went up.
The biggest change was the removal of the limit on the number of tenant farmers.
Until now, the limit on tenant farmers had prevented Sejuns farm from growing rapidly.
Basic tasks like making fields, watering, and pruning could be done by anyone.
However, tasks that required skill, such as seed harvesting, sowing, and harvesting, had to be done by tenant farmers.
But now that limit was gone.
Guys, gather around!
Sejun called over the mushroom ants to start designating them as his tenant farmers.
Snap.
Designate tenant farmer.
As Sejun ced his hand on the head of a mushroom ant and spoke,[You have designated it as the 1022nd tenant farmer.]
Kwek!
The mushroom ant, now a tenant farmer of Sejun, was incredibly happy.
Soon after, all the mushroom ants on the 99th floor of the tower became tenant farmers.
After designating the tenant farmers, Sejun said,
Time to harvest the Sundried Red Peppers.
After going to the ce where he had nted the Sundried Red Peppers and harvesting them,[You have obtained Sundried Red Pepper seeds.]
[Your job experience points have slightly increased.]
[Your proficiency of Seed Harvesting Lv. 8 has slightly increased.]
[You must use the Seed Harvesting skill 411,567 more times toplete the job quest.]
..
.
He started seed harvesting.[You have created a carrot field of 33,000 square meters.]
[You have gained 20,000 experience points.]
[You cannot umte experience points as the job quest is notpleted.]
Meanwhile, the mushroom ants, now Sejuns tenant farmers, were excitedly expanding the size of the field like crazy.
At the same time, experience points were flying off into the air.
I need to finish the quest quickly.
Seeing the messages, Sejuns motivation soared, and as a result, lunch and dinner became simple.
Thus, for lunch and dinner, they only had boiled Egg Fruits, dried sweet potatoes, and rice cakes.
Kueng!
[Dipping it in honey makes everything delicious!]
Eehee! I could eat 100 of these rice cakes with honey!
I could also do 100 boiled Egg Fruits with just a bit of salt!
Kking!
Its yellow and chewy!
Fortunately, Cuengi, Ajax, Veronica, and Fenrir ate very well without a singleint.
***
Puhuhut. Weve arrived, meow!
Theo arrived at the 42nd floor of the tower, where Sejuns Companys branch was located.
And then,
Meow meow meow.
Piyo! Piyo!
Theo and Piyot confidently headed towards the branch.
Theo-nim, didnt you say you were going to secretly monitor them?
Uren asked Theo, puzzled.
To properly monitor, one needed to approach secretly so that the subordinates couldnt hide anything.
Meow?! Ah! Thats right, meow!
Theo, naturally craving attention, had unconsciously acted in the most eye-catching manner possible.
Uren, thank you, meow!
Puhuhe. Oh, its nothing. Theo-nim, secrecy is vital for such tasks.
Is that so, meow?
Of course. Leave this task to me this time.
Uren confidently stepped forward.
Being naturally a gullible type, Uren had been deceived by the employees many times before.
In the process of uncovering those deceptions, he had umted a lot of know-how in surveilling employees.
Puhuhut. Thats great, meow!
First, lets wear this together.
When Uren took out arge cloak and wrapped it around himself,
Swish.
Urens body disappeared.
Meow?! Is that a cloak of invisibility, meow?!
Theo was surprised to see the invisibility cloak.
Puhuhe. It was hard to get!
Uren replied, proud of himself.
Puhuhut. Thats great, meow! Give it to meter, meow!
Huh? But this was hard to get
Although Uren expressed his reluctance,
Puhuhut. Ill use it to surprise Chairman Park, meow!
Theo was already thinking about how to use the invisibility cloak he would receive.
Thus, the invisibility cloak became Theos.
Then, lets go, meow!
As Theo spoke, standing on Urens shoulder,
Yes!
Uren moved.
Puhuhut. This is fascinating, meow!
Piyo! Piyo!
[Piyihihi! Theo-nim, this is fun!]
Theo and Piyot were amazed that the beings outside couldnt see them while inside the cloak of invisibility.
Uren, what do we do now, meow?
We just wait.
Meow?!
We have to stake out until decisive evidence appears and then raid in on the scene!
Remembering past events seemed to raise Urens voice.
So have you raided any scene, meow?
No, there was another passage.
Uren, who had diligently umted know-how but had never actually caught any evidence.
Puhuhut. Thats not how you monitor, meow!
Hop.
Theo jumped down from Urens shoulder and
Bill, Im here, meow!
shouted loudly in front of the building.
Then, Bill and other cats came rushing out from inside the building,
Vice Chairman Theo, wee!
They greeted Theo respectfully. The other cats were newly hired interns.
Puhuhut. Bill, are you doing well, meow?!
Yes! Thanks to Chairman Park and Vice Chairman Theo!
Bill sincerely expressed his gratitude in response to Theos question. The eyes of the intern cats were no different.
They knew that thanks to Sejun and Theo, they had ovee their food shortage.Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
Furthermore, as the number of cats working at Sejuns Company increased, the vige became wealthier, naturally leading to its growth.
Recently, Granier Vige had been promoted to a city.
For those cats, working at Sejuns Company was an honor, and they naturally worked hard.
Puhuhut. Their loyalty to Chairman Park is high, meow!
Theo noticed the cats earnest gazes.
Puhuhut. Bill, were having apany dinner today, meow!
He decided to treat the employees to apany dinner.
Yes! Then Ill look for a ce for the dinner!
As Bill hurried off to find a venue for the dinner,
Theo-nim, arent you going to monitor?
Uren asked, puzzled.
Puhuhut. I, Vice Chairman Theo, can tell just by looking, meow!
What?!
Uren, just hurry up and provide the money for the dinner, meow!
Me? Yes!
At Theosmand, Uren quickly pulled out some money.
A few hourster.
Puhuhut. Im heading back, meow!
Vice Chairman Theo, please be careful on your way back!
Thank you for the meal! Goodbye!
After finishing thepany dinner, Theo, with Bill and the intern cats farewells, returned to the 99th floor of the tower.
And then,
Puhuhut.
Piyihihi.
Theo and Piyot, wearing the cloak of invisibility.
Sneak. Sneak.
They quietly approached Sejun, who was harvesting cherry tomatoes.
But,
Woof!
Meo!
Piyo!
Sejun, one beat faster, startled them.
Meow! I was really surprised, meow! Chairman Park, how did you know, meow?!
p.
Theo quickly clung to Sejuns leg and asked.
Heh, I have my ways.
Sejun replied with a meaningful smile.
Just as Theo has a Sejun knee detector, Sejun has a Theo detector.
Chairman Park, tell me, meow!
Go to sleep.
Knowing that telling him would only make him overly proud, Sejun chose not to tell and
Pat. Pat.
stroked Theos belly to put him to sleep.
Tell me
Gororong.
Theo quickly fell asleep.
Thus, day 371 in the tower ended without any incidents, peacefully.
