Today, I’ll just pay taxes on business income.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>–That’s correct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then, tens of millions karma would have to sit idle for 24 hours.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>–……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For some reason, Kubu didn’t respond to his words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Yeongwoo continued with his next line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, what I’m asking is, can I also engage in loan sharking like the Ohsaek Credit?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this, Kubu’s eyes widened even more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having met countless customers from various planets as a cosmic transaction intermediary, he had never seen anyone’s mind grow so quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>–The first issue you need to resolve before starting loan sharking is loan collection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That makes sense…? You have to collect the money you lent, and if someone tries to run away with the money, you have to find a way to recover it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>–Correct. Therefore, generally, we rely on the enforcement power of cosmic law, but the conditions and procedures…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kubu, about to continue his explanation, blinked rapidly as if suddenly feeling frustrated, then skipped the intermediate process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>–Legal loan sharking is currently impossible, and illegal loan sharking is the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, there are illegal loan sharks in the universe.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Yeongwoo wasn’t interested in digging deeper into this matter, he concluded the conversation at this point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For now, getting a coordinate scanner is the top priority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then let’s start with the merchant transaction.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeongwoo glanced again at the black pillar on the other side while double-checking his karma balance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The intermediary Kubu then delivered the most welcome news of the day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>–But before that, there’s one reward you should receive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, a reward?
