Solo Farming In The Tower

TL: Hanguk

“Interns, this is the field where the crops we’re going to sell grow, meow!”

Theo led the interns, introduced them to Sejun’s field, and went down to the cave’s storage.

“Four of you interns, empty your bags. We’re going to fill the bags with cherry tomatoes, meow.”

However,

Thump.

Only one cat immediately emptied his bag at Theo’s command.

“Intern Jeff, who moved first, will have his contract period shortened by 10 days, meow!”

“Th… Thank you!”

At Theo’s words, Jeff bowed his head to Theo in thanks. Just by emptying the bag as he was told, the contract period was shortened by 10 days.

“What?!”

Three cats who had been biding their time began to quickly empty their bags and fill them with cherry tomatoes after hearing that the contract period could be shortened.

“I knew it.”

Sejun watched Theo from a distance and laughed. Theo was still naive and had no experience dealing with subordinates. Therefore, he was happily reducing the contract period whenever the interns, who had once tormented him, followed his words even a little.

Although it could be argued that Theo already had wolf subordinates, but frankly, the wolves followed him on their own, and it wasn’t an exaggeration to say they were looking after Theo.

“It was wise to set a maximum of 10 days for the reductions.”

Sejun thought it was a good idea for Theo to use the method of reducing the contract period as a means to control the cats. That way, the cats had no choice but to listen to Theo’s words, even if only to reduce their contract periods.

That’s why he deliberately imposed a huge contract period of 10,000 days on the cats. 10,000 days was enough for Theo to generously cut down the contract period and still maintain it for half a year.

However,

“Intern Mark filled the bag with cherry tomatoes the fastest, meow! Intern Mark’s contract period reduced by 10 days!”

“Intern Eric just responded the loudest, meow! Intern Eric’s contract period reduced by 10 days!”

The period for maintaining the contract might be shorter than Sejun thought. Theo was rewarding the interns for their behaviors, finding advantages in nano-scale details.

After watching for about 3 hours, Sejun decided,

“This won’t do.”

In that short time, most of the interns’ contract periods had been reduced by about 300 days each. At this rate, it was only a matter of time before 10,000 days became zero.

Maintaining the contract period for a week, let alone half a year, seemed challenging.

“President Theo, can we talk for a bit?”

Sejun, who was just going to watch, finally couldn’t stand it and stepped forward.

“Okay, meow!”

At Sejun’s call, Theo ran over quickly.

“What’s up, meow? Is it time for Churu?”

Theo climbed onto Sejun’s lap and asked.

“…Yeah.”

Unable to say no to Theo’s expectant eyes, Sejun first ripped open a Churu and handed it to Theo.

Chomp chomp chomp.

And then,

“From now on, Theo, only reduce the interns’ contract periods by one day.”

“Got it, meow!”

Sejun limited Theo’s authority to reduce the contract periods to one day. And he agreed to consult with Sejun if Theo wanted to reduce it more.

The next morning,

“President Park, we’re off!”

“Mr. Sejun, we’re leaving.”

“Alright. Take care.”

Sejun waved Theo and Elka off. The cats were divided into two groups.

Oren and three other cats, who had filled their bags with cherry tomatoes, followed Theo down to the 38th floor of the tower.

The remaining five cats, with their bags full of sturdy blade onion leaves and SeP’s soup, moved to the 67th floor of the tower with the wolves.

The faces of the interns moving to the 38th floor with Theo were bright, but the faces of the interns going to the 67th floor with the wolves were dark.

It was because the interns who were separated from Theo were upset as they were not able to get their contract periods reduced.

As the two groups with different destinations left all at once, the sudden emptiness of the entire area made Sejun feel a sense of void.

At that moment,
