Money started pouring in steadily.
[Sold 'Sofa'.]
[Sold 'Vacuum Cleaner'.]
[Sold 'Dumbbells'.]
The items were incredibly diverse, with prices all over the map.
But one thing mattered above all.
They turned into cash!
So I sold everything I could get my hands on.
[Daily sales exceeded 10 million won.]
[Gift has been awarded.]
Before long, we'd crossed the 10 million won mark, and another gift popped up.
『Quest Reward Bonus: Doubles quest rewards for 24 hours. 1-time use.』
'Oh. This one's actually useful.'
After tasting that fivefold rush during the typhoon, dropping back to normal onefold rewards had made daily quests feel kinda blah.
But now it was offering to double the rewards?
'This'll give me a nice boost toward unlocking the next shop tier.'
Just opening up all the food options had made life way more comfortable.
My girls were all walking around with disposable iced cups and straws plugged in.
It looked less like survival on a remote island and more like we were on some fancy vacation.
But the next unlock was even bigger.
『Finished Products 3 (4,000 points): Unlocks a wider range of items like small machines, appliances, furniture, and more.』
The real kicker? We'd finally be able to buy electronics.
It cost a whopping 4,000 points, but unlocking it meant diving headfirst into proper 21st-century civilization.
I eyed my swelling cash balance and swallowed hard.
[Cash: 32,582,481 won]
'At this rate, I might actually become the undisputed emperor of this island.'
With eighteen beauties as my sex slaves in a harem, no less.
That dream was closer than ever.
Of course, to make it happen, I'd need to work on those other girls, but I didn't have to chase them down myself.
'All I have to do is enjoy the heat with my girls.'
Anyone with eyes would take one look at our group and get the picture.
That was why I hadn't hidden my girls up on that rocky hill—instead, I paraded them around, heading straight toward the other group's turf.
Back in the day, I'd have run and hidden from their superior numbers and combat power.
But not anymore.
'They've got 14 people. We've got 10. The key is that our side's got better stamina and condition overall.'
And we had Jeong Seohee and Lee Hyunji on our team.
Even when Seohee stepped up alone before, the guys were too scared to come forward.
That meant we already outmatched them in raw fighting power.
'Hell, if I marched in with Seohee and Hyunji, we'd crush them in a conquest war without breaking a sweat.'
The guys would bolt the second we charged, leaving the girls behind as easy slaves. Game over.
'But where's the fun in that? Better if they come crawling to us on their own.'
We had plenty of time, after all.
Living day to day wasn't torture anymore.
So why not wait for those haughty, arrogant girls to walk right up, groveling to become my slaves?
It'd make for one hell of a show.
I lounged in the shade, sipping sweet iced coffee through a straw, cheering on my hardworking girls.
But the excavation boom didn't last.
Soon enough, we hit an unexpected snag.
"I can't do any more."
"Me neither. Need a break first."
At first, they took breaks here and there. Then suddenly, they were lounging around like me most of the day.
"Teacher Lee Sujung! Come on, drop it and rest with us!"
"Y-Yeah, maybe I should..."
They even dragged the most diligent one into slacking off.
That was the moment I truly understood what humans are.
'People bust their asses when survival's on the line, but the second life gets comfy, they go right back to being lazy.'
No more hunger pangs, just delicious meals and cool drinks sliding down their throats every day—it was making them complacent.
And the culprit? Science, of all things. But I couldn't blame it entirely; that's just human nature.
They say humans want to lie down after sitting and sleep after lying down, right?
"How's my makeup today?"
"Looks great! Where'd you get it?"
With free time on their hands, the girls ditched work for beauty routines and skincare.
Once dolled up, they'd sashay around me, blushing when our eyes met—a clear invitation.
'Can't fault them for wanting to look pretty for me.'
Strategy failed, spectacularly.
I'd meant to flaunt our luxury at the other group, but instead, I'd tied myself down.
'Not that I can't understand it.'
The novelty of items popping out of the ground wore off quick, and this island's brutal heat sapped motivation like nothing else.
In the end, even Teacher Lee Sujung fell to the temptation, leaving Seohee and Hyunji as the only real workers.
They were holding strong, but how long in this swelter?
'Hmm. What to do.'
After a moment's thought, I called the girls together.
"Everyone, gather up."
I connected the tablet PC the twins brought to the solar charger, topped off the battery, and continued.
"It's hot out there, right?"
"Ugh, it's freaking brutal. Even sitting still, the sweat just... "
Oh Seyoung pressed her drink can against her cheeks.
Beside her, the twins and Han Jiwon crunched on ice, while the others rubbed iced cups all over their bodies.
And still, sweat poured off everyone. The heat was merciless.
But we couldn't just slack off because of it.
So I showed the group the tablet screen.
"From now on, we're keeping a ledger."
"A ledger?"
"Yeah. Whenever you bring back an item and sell it in the shop, we'll log the earnings here. Want something? Use your earnings to buy it anytime."
"!!"
"So you're saying we get paid based on what we earn?"
I nodded.
Performance-based pay, introduced just like that.
"What you do with your cut is up to you. It's yours."
Like wilted plants perking up in the sun, life returned to their eyes.
Oh Seyoung jumped up first, fist pumping as she charged off.
"Pay for performance, got it? Hell yeah! Let's do this!"
Park Soyoung followed right after.
"Unnie, wait up!"
They'd slacked first on the group digs by the waterfall, but with clear rewards, no one was more fired up.
"Sujung, shall we?"
"Yeah."
Kim Yeonju and Teacher Lee Sujung got moving too, and soon everyone was back at it.
'Still feels a bit half-hearted.'
To amp it up, I made sure to show each girl her balance right after every sale.
"Teacher, you've got about 130,000 won saved up."
"Huh? That much already?"
I only gave them 50% of the sales, pocketing the rest.
Even so, with all the high-value hauls, the numbers climbed fast.
"W-Woojin, I'll head out again!"
"Sure. Take it easy."
The usually indecisive teacher was dashing around like mad.
Once they tasted earning money, the girls were unstoppable.
Couldn't be helped.
Seeing results instantly made it feel like a game.
'But these ones aren't budging.'
I looked down at the twins and Han Jiwon rolling around like kittens on either side of me.
They couldn't care less about the others earning cash.
But wrangling the twins was easy.
"Yuri, Yejin. If you work and save up, you can eat strawberries whenever you want later. That cool with you?"
"!!"
"Not just two per meal—with your own money, you could have a hundred in one go. Remember Korea? Eating them whenever, however much you wanted?"
They bolted upright and raced to the shore.
One more slacker down. Now for the last one.
"Yawn."
Han Jiwon, rolling around inside her summer sleeping bag.
Not sleepy enough to sleep, but zero interest in moving.
'Alright then.'
I hauled her out. She flopped face-down on the sand with a thud.
"Mm?"
I climbed on top, stripping off her hoodie and hot pants.
Her cute panties came into view. Shark print today.
"...Gonna do it?"
"Yeah."
It had been building up.
Not once since the typhoon ended.
I could've anytime, but you row when the tide's high, as they say.
Push hard now, coast easy later.
That's why I hadn't touched the girls, letting them focus on work and rest.
'But Jiwon wasn't working anyway.'
Perfect onahole for stress relief.
I yanked down her panties and spread her cheeks. Pretty asshole and cute pussy on display.
"Yawn. Do what you want. I'm sleeping."
The swelling from before had gone down during our break, but laziness was back in full force.
"Jiwon?"
"......"
Even with my dick shoved in, she just let out soft moans, staying face-down asleep.
So I bought some anal beads and rammed them deep in her ass.
Pfook!
"Nya?!"
Then I mounted her and thrust into her pussy, shaking like mad.
"Ah! Ang! W-Wait! Ahk! Ahk! Take it out of my ass...! Don't be so rough. Can't sleep like this... Can't sleep...!"
She squirmed, but I pinned her with my weight, pounding relentlessly.
My thick cock plunged deeper into her tight pussy with each thrust.
"Ahk! Hk! Haaahk!"
Her beaded asshole clenched wildly, squeezing my dick in rhythm.
"Ahem. Sorry to interrupt, Woojin. Got some stuff."
"Yeah, hand it over."
When someone brought items, I'd pause, sit her on my lap, and gently swirl my buried cock inside her while she rode my thighs.
"Seohee, your balance is 420,000 won."
"Thanks. Off again."
"Sure, good luck."
Once they left, I'd resume hammering her pussy mercilessly.
Thrusting deep, pounding her insides.
"Oof! Hot! S-Stop! I'm trying to sleep... Be gentle...!"
I buried to the hilt, battering her cervix like I owned it.
"Ahk. Haaahk. C-Coming. Hooo! Nggggh!"
Twitch. Twitch twitch.
Thanks to the pleasure imprint, she climaxed six hours faster than last time.
Just four hours in, she shuddered through orgasm after orgasm, hips bucking wildly.
"Haaahk. P-Please get off... I already came... Stop hitting my womb with your dick."
I ignored her, pounding away like before.
Thwack thwack thwack thwack thwack!
Nonstop.
Until her pussy and ass swelled up huge again from the abuse.
"Ghk. Khk. I-I just came... G-Give me a break... Hik! A-Again... Againnn...!"
Squelch. Squelch. Squiiiish.
After eight straight hours of ravaging, Han Jiwon stopped sleeping during the day when I was around.
While the others worked, she used her body to drain my lust eagerly.
The second I pulled out my dick, she'd drop her hot pants, slide her animal panties between her thighs,
grab her cheeks, spread her asshole wide, and show it off.
"Beads again today?"
"Yeah. Love it when you put them in while we fuck. Feels all tingly deep inside when your dick moves. My mind goes totally blank."
She'd come to genuinely enjoy our sessions.
In a pretty kinky way, too.
