Solo Farming In The Tower

TL: Hanguk

“Theo, you’re still unqualified.”

“What are you talking about, meow?! I’ve already met the conditions of an elite wandering merchant! Are you ignoring me, meow?!”

Theo became angry at the employee’s words, feeling that he was being dismissed. He was clearly being treated like a fool. Such treatment was unbearable, meow!

‘I’ll call my subordinates, meow!’

As Theo was contemplating which of his subordinates – like Iona, Cuengi, Elka, Hegel, or the Black Minotaurs, whom to summon and scold the employee,

“To become an elite wandering merchant, you must achieve a total cumulative sales amount of 10 million Tower Coins and satisfy 3 out of these 5 qualification criteria.”

The employee handed Theo a paper with detailed qualifications for an elite wandering merchant.

“There was such a thing, meow?!”

Theo quickly read the paper.

[Elite Wandering Merchant Qualification Criteria]

1. Must have capital of at least 5 million Tower Coins or more.

2. Must employ at least 5 staff members.

3. Must secure at least 3 exclusive products.

4. Must handle at least 100 different products.

5. Must have at least 5 clients with monthly sales exceeding 100,000 Tower Coins or more.

*If you meet 3 out of these 5 conditions above, you can come to the headquarters of the Wandering Merchant Association and become an elite wandering merchant.

“There was such a thing, meow?!”

“Yes. Normally, since few merchants aim to become elite wandering merchants, it’s not well-known.”

“I didn’t know, meow.”

“That can happen. The preferred conditions for those aspiring to become elite wandering merchants are 1, 2, and 4. Because they’re the easiest to fulfill.”

The employee kindly explained to Theo. Thanks to that, the unfortunate incident of Theo calling his subordinates didn’t occur.

“1, 2, and 4, you say, meow?”

The conditions the employee mentioned were all solvable with money. The first condition was a given, and hiring 5 employees and securing 100 different products was also possible with money.

“Hmm… In Theo’s case… First…”

While Theo was reading the paper, the employee was looking at Theo’s activity and was about to say to come back when he had fulfilled the lacking qualifications. But

“Okay. I’ve met conditions 1, 2, 3, and 5, meow!”

Theo told the employee and started to take out documents to prove his qualifications.

“What?! Already?!”

“That’s right! First of all, here’s 5 million Tower Coins, meow!”

Theo pulled out the money to meet condition 1.

Then,

“Here’s the employment contract, meow!”

He also pulled out the contract with the cat interns. A total of 8 cats were employed, easily meeting condition 2.

“These are crops with item effects, meow! And these are my regular clients, meow!”

Sejun’s crops exceeded 10, satisfying the condition for 3 exclusive products. Additionally, Theo had many regular guilds and hunters, surpassing 20 clients with monthly sales of over 100,000 Tower Coins.

So, when Theo met conditions 3 and 5,

“Wow! That’s amazing!”

The employee looked at Theo with awe, as he had never seen a wandering merchant fulfill the requirements so quickly.

“Phuhaha. Of course, meow! I’m impressive, meow! Because I am the great black…”

Theo began to boast, trying to reveal his identity.

However,

“Excuse me for a moment!”

The employee quickly ran off somewhere.

“Meow?! Where are you going without hearing my introduction, meow?”

When Theo was again frustrated at not being able to properly introduce himself,

“Here is a badge proving that you are an elite wandering merchant.”

The employee came back with a golden badge.

“From now on, you can apply for and use the Lightspeed Merchant Route. Will you apply? The application fee is 100,000 Tower Coins.”
