Solo Swordmaster - Chapter 380
#380. Aren’t you looking forward to it?
“You seem to have misunderstood something, sir.”
“A misunderstanding?”
“In the first place, our free distribution of 《LE & IN》 was part of a promotional event, not because of any special obligation.”
“That’s…”
Baekwoo was at a loss for words for a moment.
I don’t know if the government does it.
In the first place, it was the right theory that it could not be argued that the free food distribution, which was being carried out by private companies and guilds, was stopped.
“Ah, that’s none of my business!”
But the law doesn’t always work.
Baek-wu, upset at not receiving free meals, shouted with an iron plate on his face.
“If you’re going to stop serving free meals, you don’t have to give advance notice! What to do with these many people who suddenly starve while protesting for their country!”
“Right!”
“At least until today, we should serve free meals!”
Others around the food truck also responded to him.
However, despite the shouts of thousands of angry protesters, the clerk did not raise an eyebrow.
I just asked with a 100 point smile.
“What is your name, sir?”
“what? What is my name?”
“If there is anyone who protests, it is fine to keep the free food distribution for just one day, so there was an instruction to record the name accurately instead.”
“under! Do you know that you can’t do it if you tell me to? I don’t know who gave the order, but…”
“Leviathan and the Infinity Guild Master.”
“…what?”
“I said the Black Dragon Princess and the Infinite Lord.”
《LE & IN》 is a new affiliate of Leviathan, a company that has a cooperative relationship with Infinity Guild.
So, of course, it is the two of them who give the final order.
The clerk, who spoke calmly, repeatedly asked with a 200-point smile that was even more beautiful than before.
“Then can you tell me your name now?”
“…”
“There was no instruction to write down everyone’s name, so just tell us the name of one person.”
no matter who
Even formally, only one representative should come forward.
Baek-woo, as well as others, quietly averted their eyes even after hearing the extremely kind clerk. No one could open their mouths.
There is no one else to pursue.
A princess who controls the world’s economy and a monarch who is the absolute ruler of the present age.
The fact that the names were passed on to the two had the power to make any anger control disorder patient a master of anger control.
The clerk looked around at them slowly and said regretfully.
“It must be difficult to do a free event.”
“….”
“But don’t be too disappointed. You can buy anything if you pay.”
“I wonder if I should buy such expensive food…!”
“Don’t worry if the price is too much for you.”
Even if you can’t protest under your own name, could you have complained anonymously?
The clerk, who responded with a smile to Baek-woo, took out a menu billboard from inside and hung it up.
“If you sign up for the 《LE & IN》 membership now, you can purchase all the menus of Leviathan affiliates, including ours, at an 80% discount.”
“what?”
“Especially, those who use the 《LE & IN》 bank can get a discount of up to 90%.”
“90% discount…?”
Baekwoo’s pupils shook.
In line with the price of goods these days, no matter how cheap it is, it is a crazy price that easily exceeds tens of thousands of won.
However, the discount price below that was cheap enough that even Baekwoo, who grumbled, would inadvertently swallow dry saliva.
The problem is that it hurts my pride to just turn my palm over and buy money… [
I have obtained information on a property with a difference between the market price and the sale price.] [
Activate the rare skill 『Market Price』.]
[Accurate target’s exact price Measure the market price.]
[‘Chicken grilled with five spices, a gift from ancient Pompeii to the Roman emperor’ 7,900 won (discount price) > > > 753,000 won (market value)] “…!
”
“customer? If you do not intend to purchase, please move aside so that other guests can use it…”
“How do I sign up for this membership?”
Baekwoo.
He was a pragmatic man who could value a penny in his bank account rather than a penny of money.

Such spectacles did not occur only at the protest site.
This is because products with the < LE & IN > mark were provided from hotels and restaurants, as well as instant and frozen foods from a convenience store.
And I wouldn’t know if I hadn’t bought it.
Those who bought and ate any of 《LE & IN》’s dishes even once became ardent followers.
These days, when a bag of ramen is over 10,000 won, everyone was blinded by the fact that they were selling delicacies for the first time in their lives at unconventional prices.
There were even people who stocked up on food from 《LE & IN》 at random, fearing that the discount might end.
《LE & IN》 did not bother to block it.
Or rather, food was sold indefinitely to those who wanted to buy it.
Even each food truck sold at least tens of thousands of meals.
When you look at the amount of ingredients that can be loaded into a food truck, you think about how many clerks are cooking. In many ways, it was inconceivable.
But few cared about that.
Ordinary citizens were satisfied with being able to enjoy dinner without worrying about their wallets for the first time in a while.
The military and government were relieved to have averted the worst of riots and coups thanks to the relaxed atmosphere.
Various food companies that were in a moribund state were also busy rejoicing thanks to the cheap supply of all kinds of ingredients such as rice, flour, meat, and seasonings from 《LE & IN》.
As a result, it was an ending in which no one was unhappy and everyone was happy.
Leviathan top floor.
That was why Li Qingyu smiled as he put down the bowl of decoction he had finished drinking on the bed in the penthouse.
“Does the test seem successful?”
“That’s right. It is a great success.”
“Honestly, I was worried that it would work as well as you said, but I’m glad it worked.”
“It’s not a joke. It is a legitimate concern.”
Ainsha, who came to see her in the hospital, shook her head with an expressionless face.
Then he looked at the cauldron the size of his palm, which he was holding with both hands, and continued.
“Dagda’s cauldron alone does not produce enough food. So I mass-produced the cauldron. It’s really nonsensical.”
“To be precise, He made it possible for them to proliferate.”
“That is even more absurd.”
It was.
The mini cauldron that Ainsha is holding is the mass production version of Dagda’s cauldron. To be precise, it was a clone that had split from the main body.
But only words are duplicates.
Its performance was like the original.
Right now, numerous replica cauldrons across the country were producing all kinds of food and food.
“Even God can’t do that. It will overturn the Holy League.”
That’s why Ainsha bluntly admired it.
Such as Draupnir, a golden bracelet that spawns 8 duplicates every 9 days, or Draupnir, which replicates objects placed inside.
A tool with the power to proliferate infinitely was such a great treasure that it was considered sacred in itself.
But to think that Dagda’s cauldron, which was already a divine magic tool, even had a function that gave birth to clones.
Limon with the power of the Constellation.
Sir, the legendary great witch.
Even the power of Seven Arcs.
It was a feat that shocked even the gods, which was only possible because everything was exquisitely harmonized.
Besides, the two opponents Ainsha admired were not the only ones.
“Li Qingyu, which was applied to the whole country overnight as soon as the cauldron came out, is also amazing.”
“Because it was something I had prepared step by step from before.”
“At this level, no one can prepare. Because it is Li Qingyu, it can be done.”
Opening a local restaurant usually takes weeks.
However, in about a month, he cooperated with the Infinity Guild to establish a nationwide food company. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he set out to dominate the financial market.
It was a phenomenal skill even for the princess of the same Seven Dragons.
One problem.
“So I am more curious.”
“I’m curious, what do you mean?”
“This is why Li Qingyu tried to incite riots in this country.”
“…what do you mean?”
“Don’t pretend.”
It’s like you don’t understand English.
Looking at Li Qingyu, who was tilting her head, with clear eyes, Ainsha continued to speak quietly.
“Free distribution was carried out mainly in areas where Li Qingyu protesters were present. So the protests got bigger. No matter how you look at it, it’s intentional.”
“….”
“But we created chaos and quickly calmed it down before it started. I can not understand.”
If he had calmed down the chaos long ago or rather waited until the situation exploded, it would have passed.
The Black Dragon Clan is said to be the Black Dragon Clan.
But why did she do something that wasn’t like her thorough preparation for giving bottles and medicines?
Ainsha asks why.
At the end of watching her.
Li Qingyu finally smiled and opened his mouth.
“It’s not a very good reason. It just made them get what they deserved a little bit earlier.”
what is the cost of it
Ainsha didn’t bother to ask.
It wasn’t just because I heard the answer through foreknowledge.
Even if he hadn’t seen the future, he knew there was only one reason Li Qingyu would do such a thing.
“…I want to know if Lee knows too.”
“You probably don’t know. Even if you know, you won’t mind.”
Li Qingyu chuckled.
If a villain kills a few people in this country, Limon will be happy to step in and kill the villain.
However, if a war breaks out, even if tens of thousands of soldiers die, they will just watch with their arms crossed.
Because this was no longer his country.
“Because when this country abandoned the swordsman, the swordsman also abandoned this country.”
“…”
“And as long as the protection of the swordsman is gone, this country must take responsibility that has been delayed.”
It was something that President Han Jeong-guk felt but denied.
A natural price to pay for forgetting and betraying him after building up the current movie under Limon’s protection.
“It is the most dreadful responsibility because it is so natural that you have to protect the country yourself.”
“I don’t know what that has to do with supporting the protesters.”
“It doesn’t matter right now.”
willingly nodding his head.
Li Qingyu spoke calmly.
“But with this, they knew that this country could collapse at any moment, and they lost trust in the government.”
Because the country has never been in danger of collapsing in any cataclysm over the past hundreds of years…
No, more precisely, a sense of crisis has arisen for those who have become a habit after generations of believing and relying on ‘someone’ to eventually solve the crisis.
“Similarly, the government also understood that the people were capable of exposing themselves and running rampant, depending on the circumstances.”
It seemed that he realized something.
Li Qingyu said calmly to Ainsha, who caused an earthquake with an expressionless face.
“If this happens repeatedly, the people will send suspicion and distrust to the government they vaguely trusted.”
“…Then, even if the government is quiet, the politicians are not. We are strengthening policies to suppress the people and preparing for armed suppression.”
“that’s right. And doubt breeds doubt, which leads to a vicious cycle.”
“….”
“Whether it’s first for the people of this country to change the government or for the government to create a system that can control the people like cattle….”
Lips curved softly.
A voice that continued calmly
“―Aren’t you looking forward to it?”
