I Found a Hole in my Yard. It Might Be a Dungeon, but That’s Now my Garbage Dump Chapter 15: We have Become a University-Launched Venture Com

Now then, as for what changes happened after Hirokis waste managent, which was only his personal business, steps up to a Venture Company with the cooperation of a university

He decided on a company na.

He ordered a new set of business cards.

He bought a new suit.

He bought a rcedes Benz (which he tagged under company expenses).

He had a website made.

He had created an account on various social dia sites.

He had also written and stamped various docunts.

Hirokis to-do list beca so filled with the blackness of ink that he had to do a lot of extra work, but the way his business works didnt particularly change.

[Well Its not like things are going to change anyti soon.]

Indeed, the public appearance of his business may have improved, but the situation remained the sa, with the only activity that generates money being Hirokis job of throwing garbage down the hole.

The company is still registered at Hirokis ho, and no progress has been made in acquiring the surrounding properties.

Since its a company though, he would need a na appropriate to one.

Thus, the company has been nad as Mass Clean Technology Black Hole (MCTBH) Inc.

A na telling the public that theyre a company that would clean up everything.

Since all waste is thrown in the hole, they would certainly clean up those that you may not want to be disposed of, so the na isnt necessarily wrong.

As for the employees, he had asked Ishidas group to join the company, naly as the researchers.

Hiroki had no other contacts in the university, and above all, he found recruiting people as too much of a hassle.

Salesn who called themselves agents ca to peddle their skills, but he drove them out because they want high margins even when they were all just spouting random nonsense.

Rather than deal with such people, even though he isnt trustworthy, he would rather make use of Ishida, though that is while keeping an eye on him.

Besides, since his company is known to the public as a Technology Venture Company that makes full use of the latest technology to tackle global environntal problems, its natural that he would accept personnel from a university.

Of course, he would properly pay them salaries.

[Youre paying us this much?]

[Its a salary comnsurate with the amount of work you will do. I will have you working for from now on after all.]

He will give money to these people who want it. That way, there would be less chance of betrayal from them.

Ishida, who had been restrained by the contract and recorded data, beca quiet after Hiroki crushed a considerably large piece of concrete in front of him.

Though perhaps, the fact that Hiroki got hold of information about him and his family from his residence card and drivers license when he was asked to submit his CV for employnt may have had an indirect influence on his mindset.

Hiroki understands that normal business owners would do the sa when hiring employees, but thinking about it again, such an act would allow the employers to have a firm grasp of their employees personal information.

As is often the case with Venture Companies and startups, Hirokis company was entirely self-financed.

Of course, considering what Ishida had done, he did not hand over any shares to the university.

He had no intention of handing managent control to such people.

The university side was insistent to acquire at least the non-voting shares but Hiroki refused.

As a result, the dispatched personnel were only limited to those he could designate, and he was also responsible for their salaries.

Hiroki took another look at the list of things that had happened so far.

He paid for the capital himself.

He owns the technology.

He also gets the work himself.

He also pays the salaries of his staff with his own money.

[Can I seriously call this a University-Launched Venture Company?]

[You can use the Universitys na, so I suppose so]

[Hmmm Yeah, but putting aside if were talking about University of Tokyo]

So far, Hiroki has not received any benefits beyond the re lending of their na.

Well, I guess thats just how things would go, Hiroki thought.

Even though they may be University-Launched Venture Company in na, there are many of such companies with high degree of purity in staff, with university professors serving as presidents and directors, as well as companies that rely rent space and nas.

Which ant the influence of the university to his company is one of the thinnest.

If universities had the know-how to make companies grow rapidly, the world would have been filled with companies that originated at universities, so Hiroki just decided not to worry about it.

However, once one becos a company, its inevitable that problems will co their way.

[And so, I think we would need capital investnt.]

[Capital investnt huh]

When the company was transford from a sole proprietorship to a company, it was decided to hire a licensed tax accountant to keep the books in order.

It seems that the tax accountant industry is also having a hard ti finding enough people, so Hiroki was able to hire a young and talented person.

When he was asked to look over the books, he discovered sothing very serious.

[President, if things continue as they are, your taxes for next year will be very high.]

[I- Is that so?]

Because he was making too much profit, he would end up needing to pay a crazy amount of corporate tax.

Hiroki had been running an unprofitable recycling shop until last year, so he didnt really understand what tax accountant ant.

[Well, with the structure of the business being this profitable, I guess it cant be helped.]

After all, his company is an amazing zero-cost business.

Zero transportation costs, zero equipnt rental costs, zero inventory storage costs, zero waste disposal costs He had achieved zero emissions at zero cost.

Its an Ultimate Eco-Friendly Company.

[However, you will be expanding your clientele to include major corporations in the future, right?]

[Thats right. We can no longer et the demand for waste treatnt from small and dium-sized businesses in neighboring prefectures after all.]

This was all because his company has been collecting waste at a stupidly low price.

His actions had apparently adversely affected the other waste disposal companies.

[If that is the case, as part of our capital investnt, we need to install sensors in the surrounding area and establish an inspection system as a first step. We would also need to be able to bring out reports on a regular basis.]

Ishida, who had knowledge of how they can make use of capital investnt, spoke.

[I suppose so. You can do whatever you want regarding those.]

Ishida and his group have the important task of continuing to produce dummy data that can be used by large companies, so now is not the ti to spare any funds.

[And so, well develop as many business partners as we can]

Collect as much garbage as possible and throw them in the hole.

That is the hidden mission of this company.

Once the eting at the office was over, Hiroki continued to throw large amounts of waste into the hole with a large shovel at an almost inhuman speed.

Although a dump truck can roughly be used to transport the waste to the hole using the conveyor belt, its still necessary to have soone adjust at the last part for the ti being.

[What? Are you happy?]

Suddenly, for so reason, the black hole seed to tremble a little.
