The Junk Dealer Makes Good Money

[Episode 33] Live proudly

Si-woo Lee loaded all his belongings and finished his work.

He left the tong truck outside the junkyard and went inside, wiping his sweat.

Sa Hae-jin hurriedly caught Lee Si-woo, who was about to turn around after receiving the check-in ticket.

“Hey, boss, do you want to go get a cup of coffee?”

“uh? Well… Will it?”

Siwoo Lee also had something he wanted to say to him, so it didn’t really matter.

However, it was a story to be said after passing the light weight to Myeongsan Steel and lifting the weight, but Sa Hae-jin had an uneasy expression, so he agreed.

Siwoo Lee, who was guided by him and entered the office, took a coffee and sat down.

“There is quite a lot of non-ferrous metal in the yard. I think it’s time to take it from The S side… … .”

“It’s not working yet. You have to do the work and pass it on. More than that, Mr. Lee, I have something I want to say… … .”

“Yes, please feel free to speak.”

Sa Hae-jin bowed his head to him with a stiff expression.

Then, he delivered the deal with The K Besteel as it is.

Shi-u Lee was taken aback by the sudden and out of place situation, but that was only for a moment.

Si-woo Lee listened to the story with a calm expression, and Sa Hae-jin still had a face that had no face.

“Sorry. If you tell me the unit price of scrap metal from The K, I will give it to you… … .”

“Hmm, I didn’t know there was such a deal.”

“sorry. I really don’t have a face.”

“If you had hidden it to the end, you wouldn’t have known, so why are you talking about it?”

“Where is the secret that the world won’t find out? I said it because I thought it would be better for me to tell Lee Siljik rather than just getting to know him through Manager Jang. and… He even made a deal with The S, and took the scrap metal without cheating… … .”

Siwoo Lee sighed deeply at his confession.

“Thank you for being honest. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t angry, but since you told me this directly, I’ll just skip this issue.”

Warak-

Then Sa Hae-jin grabbed Lee Si-woo’s hand like a thunderbolt and bowed his head in succession.

“thank you. Thank you so much.”

“no. Rather, I am more grateful.”

Not surprisingly, if Lee Si-woo had heard this news from Jang Seong-woo, he would have stopped trading with Woori Resources without looking back.

A person who has betrayed once will always betray for their own benefit later.

“Sorry.”

“Apologies are fine now. Don’t even worry. Nuri has no intention of ending the deal with us either. I don’t know if you didn’t tell me… Anyway, the coffee was good.”

“that… Are you coming to pick up the weight?”

“Yes, it should be.”

“I would like to buy you dinner tonight as an apology, will you have time?”

“Available. Then we’ll talk about it again after we lift the weight.”

* * *

puck!

Siwoo Lee, who came from our resource, struck the steering wheel of a tong truck with his fist.

It wasn’t that I was angry because it was dead.

‘Jang Seong-woo, you bastard… … .’

It felt like my teeth were being sharpened because of Jang Seong-wu, who was doing all kinds of work from behind.

How can a person be so rude and cowardly?

On the other hand, I was grateful and relieved that Sa Hae-jin spoke out like this.

At that moment, the phone next to him vibrated.

Jiying-

– General Manager Jang Seong-woo.

I really couldn’t help but be sarcastic.

Siwoo Lee, who was quietly looking at his phone, pushed the call button.

“hello.”

[How are you?]

“Why did you call?”

[Now that we have entered the wearing restrictions, I don’t know if Nuri will be able to withstand it.]

“I take care of Nuri’s work. So what are you calling for?”

[Tug, I called to inform you of an important fact.]

“Let’s talk a little bit.”

[…] Your words are getting harsher, Siwoo Lee?]

“I have no reason to respect you anymore. tell.”

[Yeah, well, that’s it… Our resources, that boss made a good offer to me.]

Lee Si-woo was absurd and burst into laughter.

It’s kind of like coming over and calling me to get to the castle again.

But it was already one step too late.

Because I have already heard all the facts directly from the person concerned.

Still, with the thought of listening to the end, Siwoo Lee asked a question, pretending not to know.

“What kind of offer did you make?”

[Well, President Sa Hae-jin will tell you the unit price of Nuri, so why don’t you ask me to take the scrap metal that will cost that amount? Did you know?]

“… … .”

[Heh heh, you seem to be unaware of the silence. anyway. tt… That’s because I’m working sloppy. This is all talking about the past.]

“Thank you for the words, but I must have said that I take care of my enjoyment, right? Just cut it off.”

Thirling-

Siwoo Lee hung up the phone as if he had nothing to do with him.

I kept listening to it, wondering if there was any purpose, but it was a clear separation.

It was clear that he had threatened not only himself but also Sa Hae-jin using this as an excuse.

‘People should live with dignity. Do you have to do such a messy job?’

Ishiu, who had calmed down his excitement, shook his head.

I didn’t want to worry about useless things anymore.

Now that he had to drive a vehicle loaded with stuff, he let his thoughts go and focused.

Si-woo Lee headed straight for the famous Mountain Iron Temple.

After arriving at the other yard of Myeongsan Steel and stopping the car on the weighbridge, Siwoo Lee got off.

“You are here today, sir.”

“Haha, I had already come to the news that CEO Lee was coming. Is Kwangwoon doing well?”

“You are doing well. It’s a pity that I don’t have much time to watch in person, but the staff are sticking around and teaching me a lot, so you don’t have to worry.”

“I am not worried. I entrusted it to this representative.”

As soon as we unloaded our belongings and entered the office, Jae-Shin Moon handed the ticket to Si-Woo Lee.

Si-woo Lee, who was looking at the chart, suddenly saw the expression of Jae-shin Moon, full of worries.

he said with a smirk.

“If you are so worried, how about a sneak visit, sir?”

“Whoa, do you have that much tea? Actually, there are only a couple of things to worry about. I wonder if Kwangwoon will cause a nuisance… … .”

“Isn’t everyone growing up like that? I wasn’t good at first either.”

“Yes, but… From a father’s point of view, it seems inevitable that he is worried about his son.”

“I understand. Still, trust him and wait for him.”

“yes. That’s it. Um, so why don’t we have dinner together tonight?”

“I’m sorry, but I have an appointment today. How are you tomorrow? I think it would be nice to have a seat with Kwangwoon.”

Moon Jae-shin put on an expression of regret when he said that he had already made an advance contract.

“I can’t help it. All right.”

“Today, let’s talk with Kwangwoon. You’ll need time to talk to each other about how things were and what’s different from the famous mountain. Oh, I’ll be back later.”

“Be careful driving, Mr. Lee.”

“Thank you for your concern.”

* * *

Siwoo Lee went to Nuri Recycling, gained weight, and then went back to Woori Resources.

Then I went into the office.

Inside, Sa Hae-jin received a call from someone and the road was running wild.

“What? Ha, you mean you’re going to threaten me with that as an excuse?”

A voice full of excitement.

Siwoo came in quietly and sat down.

“Do whatever you want! Stop!”

It was hard to see who he was talking to.

“Are you Seong-Woo Jang?”

“yes… … .”

“I still got a call.”

“this… damn bastard… … .”

“Keep your excitement down. As far as I know, it shouldn’t be a problem.”

“… Okay.”

Sa Hae-jin let out a deep sigh as he sat down on his seat, calming his excitement.

“I told you nothing was going to happen. Don’t worry too much, boss.”

“I’m just sorry.”

“I am fine. I will deposit the amount for the scrap metal I brought today if you cut off the tax bill.”

When it comes to money, Siwoo Lee’s iron rule was to pay immediately without wasting time and thoroughly.

“thank you.”

“How about dinner at 7 o’clock tonight?”

“I’m fine anytime.”

“How about a place?”

“I’m going to Nuri. The person who is sorry should move.”

“I know. Then I will go.”

“Always be careful driving. See you later.”

* * *

Si-woo Lee, who returned to the junk yard, confirmed Moon Kwang-woon, who was actively moving in the yard.

“Kwangwoon.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Come into the office for a second. Manager Park, I’ll take Kwangwoon with me for a moment.”

As soon as he returned, Siwoo Lee brought Moon Kwang-woon to the office and gave him a cup of coffee.

“how’s work?”

“There is something new and interesting because Deputy Director Choi informs me so well.”

“That’s good. From now on, I will teach you how to handle a fork crane. Let’s get a fork crane license first.”

“… A forklift license?”

“Just because you’re the boss, you can’t sit in the office and direct everything. You will have to run to the field to find out what the employees are struggling with. That’s what CEO Moon wants you to learn.”

“… To be honest, I didn’t enjoy this job at Myeongsan. It was just my father’s business, so I just wanted to help.”

“It’s just that you don’t feel like having fun. The staff must have been vigilant and checked you out so that you don’t show up.”

“… How did you know?”

Moon Kwang-woon opened his eyes roundly and looked at Lee Si-woo.

I don’t know why.

Siwoo Lee followed a similar path and came to this place.

“You said you and i are alike The title of the president’s son is very comfortable, but it’s uncomfortable.”

“Right. I can do my job comfortably, but I can see… … .”

“I understand. Even if you don’t tell me what the most difficult part of Myeongsan is, I think you’ll understand. If you need a break, you can rest in the office.”

“I don’t think so. Besides, it’s more fun than I thought to learn from the side of Deputy Chief Choi.”

“That’s good. It’s easy to get a fork crane license anyway. If you have experience, it is only a matter of time to get practical. But I will have to prepare a note.”

“I’ll do my best!”

“No, you don’t have to work, so even if it’s small, you try to learn from the side of the staff. And develop the ability to see the whole of the junkyard, not just one part.”

Since Moon Jae-shin trusted him and entrusted Moon Kwang-woon to him, he had to tell him properly.

So that Jae-Shin Moon can trust and entrust Mun Kwang-Woon with the famous iron products.

“Yes, sir.”

“Then shall we go out?”

Si-woo Lee went to the excavator with Kwang-woon Moon.

Then I sat in the cockpit.

I slowly started explaining to Moon Kwang-woon, who was hanging on the door.

“When you turn on the ignition, just count the heat. Don’t start it right away. It’s fine in the summer, but in the winter, if you don’t start the engine once, the battery will be discharged. Just like stretching, machines need warm-up exercises.”

“ah… I know.”

Food duck-

Purneung-

Siwoo Lee, who waited 10 seconds after starting the engine at stage 1, turned on the excavator.

And he taught me how to do each one.

Of course, he would have learned it from Myeongsan Steel, but there was no guarantee that he had learned it properly.

After I taught Moon Kwang-woon how to handle the excavator, it was time to leave work.

The workers who built the wall came to Siwoo Lee after completing the installation of the pipe that serves as a support on one side.

“Boss, we have completed the skeleton today, and tomorrow we will build a platform to serve as a wall.”

“You suffered.”

“no. You may enter from the outside, so you should remain on the junkyard as much as possible.”

If the junkyard was emptied while one wall was missing, thieves could come in.

After the manager meticulously informed Si-woo Lee, he left with the workers.

‘Ah, I have a meal appointment with the CEO of our resource today… … .’

When it was time to leave, the employees gathered in the office.

“Chief Kang.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Today, I have an appointment with the CEO of Woori Resources. I’ll be back after eating, so can you keep the junk shop for a moment?”

Kang Pil-joong smiled faintly at Si-woo’s troubled expression and nodded his head willingly.

And Moon Kwang-woon raised his hand.

“I will also be guarding the junkyard with Manager Kang.”

“Kwangwoon, you should go home. The representative will be waiting for you.”

“it’s okay. I will call my father and tell him.”

“Don’t go. After all, it would be two hours at most. We were supposed to meet at 7 o’clock, so please keep it until 9 o’clock. I am sorry to ask you this.”

“no. I know that meeting people is an extension of work.”

For the boss who runs a junkyard, even if the workday is over, there are times when it becomes an extension.

It’s just meeting people.

In particular, Woori Resources was the only junk dealer dealing with Nuri Recycling.

So I had to pay attention.

“I’ll be your companion, Manager Kang!”

“Hey, our Kwangwoon is stubborn. Boss, I must be with Kwangwoon.”
