Chapter 129 – Job Scams (2)
Despite my explanation, Kim Jae-ha continued to insist on prosecution.
“Where is the law to leave a company that cheats on new recruits? Can’t we do something?”
“Even if he cheated, he didn’t steal the money. Rather, he gave the money. There is no way to deny it if they claim that it was good intentions.”
“Such nonsense…”
In fact, to be deceived is to be deceived, so it is right that it is scary and embarrassing from the point of view of the person concerned.
However, no matter how you look at this case, there is no guilt.
In fact, if you are accused of this, you will be very unfair and embarrassed.
I waved the statement he had written and put some pressure on it.
“And, are you sure that the cause of excessive consumption lies with the seniors in the guild? If it’s something like speculation…”
“Ah, don’t do that, I want to sue you!”
Kim Jae-ha is shocked and annoyed.
I snorted inwardly and calmed him down.
“Mr. Kim Jae-ha. You lost some money right now, so you can’t see anything, right?”
“Yes, four? Ah…”
Meanwhile, the team members in the office were staring at him with hatchet eyes open.
If I just nodded my head slightly, it seemed like it would bury it in the mountain behind it and come back.
Admiring the unique spirit of a newcomer to society, I generously passed it on.
“Go quickly before calling the boss. Don’t touch coins from now on.”
“How can I… Oh, no. I’ll go.”
In the end, Kim Jae-ha, unable to hold on any longer, ran out of the office.
I ordered as soon as he left.
“Call the guild representative. You don’t have to come right away, tell them to visit when you have time.”
“Eh… Are you really calling me?”
“I’m just trying to hear why.”
Lee Seo-woo nodded at my words and picked up the phone.
The guild’s representative came much sooner than I expected.
Doesn’t he enter the office frighteningly past lunchtime?
“I-I’m the representative of the Baekdusan Guild…”
“Ah. You can go over there.”
The representative, guided by Seo Ji-yu, stopped in front of my seat with a very uneasy face.
It seemed as if he threw everything aside in surprise and rushed to run.
I don’t have a hobby of putting people upright, so I quickly offered him a seat.
“Thank you for your valuable time. Have a seat. Don’t be too nervous. Just take a few quick questions.
“Yes… Anything I can answer…”
As expected, people who have a lot to lose have a good attitude.
I nodded my head in satisfaction and without hesitation went to the main point.
“You know Kim Jae-ha, who works for your company, right?”
“Yes. I don’t think Jae-ha has any accident…”
“It’s a little strange to see it as an accident, and I wrote this.”
When I showed the statement to the boss, his face was stained with embarrassment.
He barely read it with trembling eyes, and he let out a small laugh.
“I’m going to sue for something like this…”
“Did you bring it from the guild storage, a rare loot found during Kim Jae-ha’s raid?”
The president’s face was full of emotions at my question.
He was very conflicted, but he nodded his head obediently.
The record is obvious anyway, so it is meaningless to lie.
“That’s right. It’s a bit embarrassing, but…”
The reason I dared to investigate something that was non-eventful even if I pretended to be is simple.
If the guild had obtained the spoils through the black market, etc., It was intended to punish them.
Of course, the possibility of a new washing method was taken into account.
Hunter loot had detailed records, so there was a possibility that they tried to wash records in that way.
“Why did you do that? Is it like a surprise for new employees?”
Even if there is no room for legal problems, I am quite curious.
The representative of the guild hesitated for a moment before quietly explaining.
“Well, I’d like you to keep it a secret if possible…”
“Listen first and judge.”
“Haha. Thank you. This is a kind of trade secret. Special Investigator. Do you know what the resignation rate of new recruits in the hunter industry is?”
The resignation rate of new Hunter Guild employees?
I’m not sure, as I’ve never taken it seriously, but it’s probably amazing.
“First of all, it’s definitely over 50%, right?”
“Much more. More than 80% of new hunters quit within a year.”
That must be the case.
Even if they received specialized training, hunters were ordinary members of society.
If you give them weapons and tell them to fight monsters, of course they don’t want to do it.
However, the dropout rate is over 80%. It is beyond imagination.
Hunters have a set mandatory service period anyway, so they have to do active duty for a certain period of time…
Nevertheless, the dropout rate is skyrocketing.
“It seems like everyone really doesn’t want to do it.”
“Unfortunately, that seems to be the case. There’s no other reason to keep hiring new employees during this downturn.”
In addition, as the supply of hunters became sufficient, the profits of the lower hunters were significantly lowered.
It’s hard and dangerous work, but if you can’t make good money, you’ll want to quit.
The representative of the Baekdusan Guild, who was thinking about the problem, found a surprising fact while looking at the statistical data.
“But… Hunters who don’t leave even after a year have a secret.”
“A secret?”
“Yes. It’s not very grandiose… But most of the long-term hunters had experience acquiring rare loot from dungeons.”
“Ah…”
Rare loot.
No matter how many associations and guilds take away, a jackpot is a jackpot as long as the name is a rare trophy.
Imagine that you originally put 1 million won in your bank account, but you put 300 or 400 each. Of course, you will have a taste for work.
Only then did I understand the Baekdusan Guild’s intentions.
“Are you showing newcomers some taste of money?”
“Exactly.”
3 million won after visiting the dungeon once!
Once you’ve had this experience, there’s no way you can get anything else out of your hands.
This is the same as gambling addicts who cannot stop gambling because of the pleasure and memory of winning.
Moreover, people’s consumption habits are not something that can be easily reduced.
If a person who used to spend 1 million won a month spends 500,000 won a month, he will feel that his quality of life his has greatly decreased.
New hunters who once tasted the jackpot have no choice but to stick to the company, drunk on that sweet memory.
I smiled, thinking that the boss had done a good job with his hair.
“What is the dropout rate after starting to use the method?”
“No one quits. How would you quit?”
“Under…”
It’s a business that can be left even if you do that, so it’s probably why you’re going to have such a hard time.
It seems that not only the newcomers benefited from this, but the existing guild members also received a kind of bonus in that way.
In-house welfare that I could not have imagined.
After getting a satisfactory answer, I let him go.
“Kim Jae-ha, please don’t scold me too much.”
“Ugh. We can’t do that because of the lack of manpower these days. To say that the speculation failed, it’s rather good.”
As we parted with a smile, Tia, who had been watching from behind her, tilted her head as she sipped her coke on her side of her.
“Master. But you deceived people, won’t you catch them?”
“I can’t catch it. A simple lie is not subject to punishment.”
If that was the case, you would be the first to be executed for not eating snacks every day.
As I added, Tia trembled in her body her.
I asked the strangely unfair looking woman as if to pin her down.
“Tia. What do you think of the law?”
“Eh, eh… Master. Are you mad?”
“I’m not scolding you. I’m just genuinely curious about your thoughts.”
“Law… Law is… Social consensus? Isn’t it?”
That’s a good answer for Tiachi, but it’s far from what I thought.
I turned to Alice.
She stammered, explaining with her flustered face her.
“Isn’t the law… An ideal? It’s the embodiment of what people want from each other.”
“Well. Laws aren’t necessarily made with the consent of citizens. Rather, there are far more cases where they aren’t.”
“Then what do you think?”
I took a sip of coffee with all the ice melted and expressed my opinion.
“The essence of law, I think, is violence.”
“Po, violence?”
“Yes. When violence is refined into its ultimate form, it becomes law.”
No matter how nice it is, the law is ultimately a tool for governance and national management.
If you break the law, you turn the most powerful group in human history… I.E. The nation.
There is even a prejudice that the law is fair and reasonable for some reason.
“The state uses the law to trample on the free will of the people. Whether it’s good or bad… It’s about breaking it down.”
Well, if you are being sanctioned using the law, you can’t resist.
Either give up everything and run away and live in hiding, or be punished obediently. Only one of them.
“There is no other violence so powerful and clean as this.”
Fines, confiscation of bank accounts, confinement, expulsion from the group, even the death penalty…
Violence that mobilizes various methods to break the opponent’s resistance and forcibly submit!
That is the nature of the law.
Alice closed her eyes tightly as if I was making a big noise again.
I quickly added in front of her.
“That’s why we need to wield it more carefully. It’s important to be aware that what we’re doing is violence, and apply it not too broadly.
“That… I see. I’m sorry.”
Tia gave a small nod of her head, belatedly convinced.
I took care of the rest of the work to get off work quickly.
