Chapter 363 BIG PICTURE (1)

Arcadia Planning and Economy Team.

A small team born in the process of transplanting game elements to the fantasy world of Arcadia in the past.

Originally, the team had the purpose of managing the auction house system in the game and monitoring and analyzing abnormal transactions in advance, but unlike then, now the scale has expanded too quickly and to an abnormal level.

[As all continents of Arcadia are integrated, the auction house is also integrated. As of now, all users will be able to freely trade with users around the world through gold.]

Discovery of a new continent. And the continental unification due to the resurrection of the world tree.

As a result, the area of responsibility of the planning and economy team, which was limited to the Korean continent in the past and managed in a limited way, quickly expanded to the whole world. With such an enormous level of workload, the existence value of the planning and economy team jumped up in an instant.

And Yang Han-seok, the team leader of the planning and economy team, who rode the trend well, could now become the head of the ministry in charge of the huge and vast economy of Arcadia.

Yang Han-seok, Ministry of Planning and Economy.

He handles all kinds of serious matters with a nameplate that shines with black gloss on his desk.

Once leading a team with less than 10 employees, he was promoted several times, taking charge of a huge department with over 80 employees, but Han-seok's face was always full of gloom.

“Uuuuuu..... Manager, these are system construction proposals sent by the countries we consulted with this time. Please review and if there is no problem, we will take care of it right away.”

And Kang Yul, a subordinate who has been working with him since the beginning.

Now the manager in charge of the bizarre department called the ‘Cooperative Response Division', which is in charge of consultations with government departments of each country, he came to me with a tired and caffeine-stained face and put down a beautiful bundle of documents on his desk. .

“How many of these are there...?”

“Six countries in Central and South America. Southeast Asia is 9 countries. 3 countries in Europe and 4 countries in Africa.”

Tax authorities in as many as 22 countries are preparing for the incorporation into the system while pursuing complex consultations on tax information sharing.

Since the matter was an issue, it was impossible to simply stamp and send it away, so Yang Han-seok, who was put in a situation where he had to check and read each and every one of them, but already in his office, documents still waiting for his approval were literally piled up like a mountain.

“Ha... I understand, so put it in the corner over there. Right now, I don't have time to read that far.”

“Yes...”

Hesitantly placing the stack of papers on top of the other papers, Kang Yul suddenly asked as he looked at the report with a more blank face than himself.

“Boss.”

“why.”

He just answered calmly without making eye contact. Looking at Han Seok, Yul asked.

“What do you think about moving to another department?”

“what? What are you talking about?”

At those words, Manager Yang Han-seok's eyes, which had been fixed on the report until just now, turned and stared at Yul in an instant. Yul flinched a little at his exaggerated reaction, and soon began to bring out the inner thoughts he had stored in his heart.

“No... I don't feel like living these days..... I know the manager is having a hard time, but it's too hard for me to hold on...”

Arcadia Korean server's early service.

Even when the auction house wasn't active yet, Yul had a happy working life in a spacious and comfortable work atmosphere.

However, as the entire department expanded and expanded so quickly, he was given a heavy burden at such a young age.

“why. Is the work that hard?”

Yang Han-seok, manager of the department, opens his eyes to his honest story and asks. At his words, Yul swallowed his saliva with a slightly nervous face and said.

“no. It's not that the work itself is beyond my abilities. To be honest... let me tell you. I feel that this doesn't seem like a human being lives...”

4:00 am to work. Get off work at 11pm.

It's not something forced or ordered by anyone, but it's a situation that inevitably happens when you try to deal with all kinds of things that come and go every day. Although the degree was different, it was severe in the case of Yului, which had to solve problems through consultation with government departments around the world.

“Because of the time difference, it is almost impossible to leave work on time. So the other day, I had a meeting at 3:00 in the morning, so I couldn't even get off work, so I just slept at the company? Since I always live at the company, my mother thinks I just live at the company.”

An inhuman working environment where you can't even open your eyes and see. That's why Yul has been thinking really seriously lately. That's why Yul mustered up the courage to speak up. However, Yang Han-seok's answer left him speechless for a moment.

“Then I...?”

“yes....?”

“Are you going to leave me and run away?”

“...?”

It's not a joke, it's his sincere question. And Han Seok began to talk about his grievances in front of his subordinates who were complaining.

“Go to work at 4 am and leave at 11? It seems that our Yul doesn't quite understand how thankful he is for being able to leave work. I'm not kidding, it's been over 2 months since I saw the face of the wife, you bastard. He just gave me an ultimatum saying that if he didn’t come back this weekend, he would send me the divorce papers.”

“.....”

It's not a joke, Yang Han-seok, the manager of the company, has become the company's leader.

In Yul's grievances, which are no different from getting wrinkled in front of bed bugs, he once again told us what the life of a truly inhuman slave is like.

“So you're going to throw me out because it's that hard and cowardly run to another honey sucking department? Leave me alone in this overwork hell?”

“.....”

The director’s eyes filled with poison. He said, revealing the heart of the water ghost that he lives together even if he dies.

“Where do you think it will go your way?”

“sorry.”

Thinking that he was careless, Yul lowered his head and tried to go outside with his shoulders drooping.

However, manager Yang Han-seok called him back.

“Hey Yulia. Sit there for a minute.”

Yul, puzzled by those words, sat down. Han Seok, who had thick dark circles down to his cheeks, drank the cold coffee at once and said,

“Do you remember what I said earlier?”

“What do you mean?”

“About the future unfolding before us.”

In the early days, no one had any interest in the planning and economy team's department in the past.

As the team leader at that time, he showed frightening insight into the future.

[A highly embodied virtual reality that is unmatched. In this, not just simple combat and hunting, everything is embodied. Politics, production, economy, war, diplomacy, art, history, culture... All of them, including even religion, are meticulously organized and organically connected, just like in reality.] [

Gold, the currency used in this world. Considering the influence this gold has, the day may come when it goes beyond being just game money and is recognized as another currency that can exert a huge influence on the national level.] [If that day comes, the existence of this Arcadia

will How important will our role be in tracking and monitoring the flow and movement of all gold transactions

?

Ironically, however, the world he spoke of quickly became a reality and came to them.

[The United States of America regulates gold as a virtual currency that replaces the role of money. Accordingly, profits earned from virtual reality are also taxed. Accordingly, Arcadia Co., Ltd. will establish a system that can track the movement of all gold circulated in virtual reality and provide taxpayer information and revenue data in the process of exchanging money to cash after consultation with the tax authorities of each country. .]

Accreditation as the world's first official virtual currency along with the institutionalization of each country.

[There are an increasing number of companies that play the virtual reality game Arcadia professionally. They judge that the value and profit rate of the goods that can be earned in the game are excellent. In addition, it seems that these investment companies are expecting a lot from the 15% stake that Arcadia Co., Ltd. announced in the past.] Companies around the

world professionally jumped into this virtual reality and made huge investments, and gamers The advent of an era recognized as a value-added job.

[Recently, places that buy and sell goods using gold, a virtual commodity, are rapidly emerging. The so-called ‘rice eaters' who use gold acquired while playing in Arcadia to use restaurants, purchase daily necessities, and use it for travel expenses are spreading like a trend

. Even the emergence of people who use this earned gold to solve everything in their daily lives.

A situation that was once thought possible only in imagination has become a reality. That's why Yul muttered with a bitter smile as he looked at the manager who foresaw all of that.

“sure. At that time, the manager was really great.”

He foresaw the future as surely as if he had become a prophet. And as a result, Yul and the existing department employees, including Yang Han-seok, were promoted at an unusually high speed and transformed into elites who were in charge of and responsible for the core and important departments of Arcadia Co., Ltd.

“I know you are having a hard time, Yul. There are no precedents or examples to refer to, no one to ask or seek advice from. New problems and tasks pop up every day, and after you concentrate on handling them for a long time, problems that still need to be dealt with pile up like a mountain. There's no kid who doesn't feel it's hard in that never-ending job hell. Even the most insane workaholic bastard would shed tears of blood if he came here.”

Manager Yang Han-seok is well aware of how harsh and inhumane the current working environment and treatment are. He asked, shining brightly alive eyes despite his zombie-like face.

“But do you know why I didn’t give up and stayed in this department until the end?”

“....I don't know.”

The manager lamented that he would die because he was too tired. Yul couldn't figure out why he was holding out with such evil.

“It is because the work we are doing now may be a historical event for the entire human race that will be recorded forever in the distant future.”

“yes....?”

Humanity's first virtual reality Arcadia.

And the currency gold that was used in this virtual world.

It is a truly unprecedented global event and a huge change like a revolution in which meaningful values are being given to the economy and its goods, which are running in a world that is nothing more than illusions and fictitious data.

The fact that the birth of a single giant virtual currency that can be freely exchanged with all currencies in the world and that the starting point of commercialization is being written was stimulating Han Seok like crazy.

“Do you know how big and important the things you are doing are? Major government departments around the world are asking for our cooperation and are in a hurry to get answers. In a way... we're in the position of first. And that to the whole world.”

A huge situation where just staying and surviving here could make for a huge career. That is why Han Seok dealt with all the problems he was facing here, survived the era of cataclysm, and was peeking at his own brilliant future.

“Don’t lament that you will die like that, and take this as an opportunity. No matter what you do in the future, your career as the head of the Ministry of Planning and Economy will be a great light to you wherever you are. Shouldn’t you also aim for an executive position someday?”

“.....”

Manager Yang Han-seok said to think of it as a moment of self-mortification for a leap forward. And Yul lowered his head at his words and made up his mind.

“By the way, Executive Director Kwon Myung-han said his annual salary was 50 billion won?”

“I will work hard from now on, manager.”

The most important driving force that silently endures subhuman treatment and leads the life of a slave.

It was money.

A sum of money too large to dare to refuse.
