[Episode 27] Are you okay?
In order to check the quality of the goods, Siwoo Lee had to go in himself.
Since the junk shop is run by people who are smart about scrap metal, they cleverly put scrap metal with materials attached to it.
When Park Tae-moon and Choi Moon-sik went to work, Lee Si-woo started the tong truck.
“Are you leaving?”
“I’m going to bring some of our resources and try it. You can tell if it’s a loss or a benefit by looking at the quality of the product.”
“Hmm, I’ve heard rumors that the quality isn’t that good.”
“Well, I don’t want to be swayed by rumors until I see it with my own eyes. maybe you don’t know Another thing might be good.”
“Hmm, do you want to leave now?”
“yes. And today, I asked Myeongsan to dispatch a tong truck, so please record the weight carefully. It may take a while since we open the goods on our side and deliver them to Myeongsan right away.”
“All right.”
It may be geographically close, but the moment you put it down in the yard, it turns into two things.
In that case, even if it was bothersome, it was better to deliver the item immediately after opening it with a famous steel product.
Siwoo Lee climbed into the driver’s seat of the tong truck.
I started the car with Park Tae-moon and Choi Moon-sik see off.
Our resource is about an hour away.
There were three junk dealers including our resource in this area.
We entered the entrance of our resource and put the vehicle on the weighbridge.
Sa Hae-jin, who was waiting for Lee Si-woo to get off, tilted his head.
“Why put the car on the weighbridge? Aren’t you going to an authorized weighing station?”
Sa Hae-jin was accustomed to the ways of The K Besteel.
Ishiu smiled at his words.
“I have no intention of putting it on an authorized weighing station until I spend 10,000 won. Well, each junk store will show a difference, but in that case, the difference will only be less than 50 kg.”
“Then I am grateful.”
“But boss, I was just about to move on, aren’t we in a position to trade with each other?”
“Yeah, right?”
“I respect my boss.”
I’ve only had occasional encounters with Sa Hae-jin.
There were times when we met and became close friends when my father was still there.
But now it was different.
boss and boss.
It was not the one who gave the goods.
Rather, it could be seen that Si-woo Lee, who sets the unit price of goods high, is the best.
“Oh, sorry. I have an old habit.”
“I don’t want respectful words, but I think there should be respect for each other.”
“right… I will be more careful in the future.”
“I’ll start with the weight. Please put it on as soon as guests arrive. I will bring you down with tongs.”
“thank you.”
Si-woo Lee parked the car on a weighted area and got out of the driver’s seat.
Sa Hae-jin scratched his head as he watched Si-woo climb up easily with tongs.
I didn’t feel bad at Lee Si-woo’s request for respect.
Because what he said isn’t wrong.
‘but… The company that pays a lot of unit price is the best.’
Woo-
Although his skills were far lacking compared to Kang Pil Middle School, Lee Si-woo’s claw skills were not bad either.
A skill that won’t be lacking even if you run as a tong knight right now.
Siwoo Lee gently moved the tongs and loaded the weight into the vehicle.
‘Isn’t that bad? Rather, the goods are better than other junk dealers.’
There were some scrap metals with materials, but it was cleaner than I expected.
Loading and loading the weight first, unloading the belongings of the guests.
Our resource was about half the size of Nuri Recycling’s acreage.
There were a lot of things piled up for such a size.
As a result, it looked relatively narrow.
Siwoo Lee, who looked at the pile of aluminum, made a decision.
‘I’ve decided to go with you anyway, so it doesn’t matter if I help you. From the standpoint of The S, it wouldn’t be too bad if a junk dealer was added.’
A vehicle with all its weight loaded on the weighbridge.
Sa Hae-jin hastily made the payroll schedule.
“It came out to be 7,230 kg.”
“… Can’t this be? Is this car bigger than the other tong trucks?”
“It’s the same size as other tongs cars.”
“okay… … ?”
There were not many things that were heavier than usual.
Because things have always been the same.
However, the weight was clearly different from when it was handed over to The K Besteel.
“If something is wrong, shall we go to an authorized weighing station?”
“no! You don’t have to.”
Sa Hae-jin hurriedly waved her hands.
Seeing this, Shi-woo smirked.
I got a paycheck from him and pulled the car out of the weighbridge.
After leaving the car on the road in front of the scrap shop at Woori Resources, Si-Woo Lee came back into the yard.
“Isn’t there a lot of aluminum piled up?”
“Hey, it still hurts my head. It was The Kay who introduced me to a company that takes aluminum.”
“Then the customer must have disappeared.”
“Yeah, what… … .”
No matter how you look at it, The K Besteel did a disgraceful job.
“I would like to introduce a non-ferrous company, are you okay?”
“uh? really?”
“yes. Have you ever heard of The S?”
“I’ve heard of it.”
“The S is the place we do business with. I will tell the boss over there, so listen to the unit price and decide.”
The S.
Sa Hae-jin knew that it was a company specializing in aluminum.
Although he also looked for various ways to do business with The S, The S was famous for only dealing with factory products or large-scale junk dealers.
“ah… … .”
“Are you okay?”
“I would be grateful if you could introduce The S.”
“Then I’ll make an appointment for tomorrow.”
“thank you.”
“I’ll come pick you up in an hour or three.”
After notifying the next train, Si-woo Lee departed for the Myeongsan Steel.
There was no reason to load close to 7 tons on a 5-ton vehicle.
Because I had no intention of using the highway anyway.
It’s better to go to Myeongsan Steel on the national road.
Si-woo Lee, who arrived at Myeongsan headquarters, put the car on the weighbridge.
“Where are you came from?”
“I came from Nuri Recycling.”
“Ah, maybe Manager Kang… … .”
“you’re right. Who is your representative?”
“Stay inside.”
I said hello yesterday, but the whole time I was there, I tried to see your face.
The employee rushed into the boss’s office.
Moon Jae-shin came out on the news that the goods had arrived from Nuri.
“Representative?”
“I have brought you something, sir.”
“Didn’t you ask me to dispatch the car today? But why directly… … .”
“Because it was brought from outside.”
“Oh, I see.”
Jin Jun-sik and Kang Pil-joong took a tong truck made of Myeongsan Iron and left for Nuri recycling.
In the meantime, Siwoo Lee came.
Moon Jae-shin smiled softly at the sight of him driving to the tong truck.
“I will show you where to get off. weight?”
“you’re right.”
Moon Jae-shin guiding you directly to the unloading place.
The employees in the office were surprised to hear the conversation between the two.
A large junk store that traded 1,000 tons of scrap metal in a few days.
Because that was Nuri recycling.
Si-woo Lee drove the car to the place where Jae-shin Moon was leading.
Then I pulled over and got out of the driver’s seat.
“The fork crane will take it down. You just need to put the tongs aside, sir.”
“all right.”
With the tongs set aside, the excavator approached the vehicle.
He carefully picked up the scrap metal that was loaded into the car.
Si-woo Lee, who was standing next to Jae-shin Moon, scratched his head.
“There is some scrap metal that lacks material, but it is clean.”
“It looks like it to the naked eye. Well, it looks like something from another junkyard, right?”
“yes.”
“Not bad.”
Although the quality was a little lower than the scrap metal brought from Nuri Recycling, the product was good.
“I plan to bring a light weight car later.”
“You don’t have to come all the way here. There is another yard 30 minutes away from Nuri. I think you should come over there.”
“Give me your address, and I’ll take the next scrap there.”
All scrap metal brought from our resources was handed over to Myeongsan Iron.
Si-woo Lee, who returned to the junkyard, got out of the car and stretched.
“Isn’t it great?”
“Yeah, it was fine, boss.”
We went into the office to process the tax invoices we transacted with our resources.
Quite a few guests today.
After transferring the accounts one by one, Si-Woo Lee processed the electronic tax invoice on a computer.
Weight 7,230 kg.
Lightweight 4,210 kg.
The amount to be given to our resources was about 3.2 million won.
And after handing over the goods of Woori Resources, the amount to be received from Myeongsan Steel was about 3.7 million won.
The profit amounted to about 500,000 won.
It wasn’t a bad return.
‘It would be more beneficial to hand over the weight to Myeongsan, and to take the light weight from the yard and separate it.’
Common junkyards are light and heavy.
Separate the two.
As a result, Light B and Light A were randomly mixed.
If you want to hand it over to Myeongsan right away, it would be better to bring it to the yard, separate it, and pay an extra 20 won per unit.
Siwoo Lee, who was sitting in the office looking tired, checked the date.
The date marked in red on the calendar.
Lee Si-woo put on a bitter expression at his father’s 49 ashes coming closer.
* * *
A young man who walks leisurely while running errands at Myeongsan Steel’s headquarters.
Moon Jae-shin clicked his tongue and looked at the young man.
“Director Jin, if I leave Kwangwoon like this, I don’t think I will be able to learn work properly.”
“The large age gap with the staff may also be the reason why Kwangwoon is unable to settle in.”
“Because I can’t hold my grown-up son in my arms forever… Now I have to make a decision.”
Moon Jae-shin recalled what Si-woo Lee had said as if passing by.
Kwangwoon Moon.
Moon Jae-shin’s son, he has been working at Myeongsan Steel’s headquarters for two years, but he has not yet actively tried to work.
“Are you really going to ask Kwangwoon from CEO Lee?”
“There is nothing I can do to get him to come to his senses. It’s time to make a bold decision.”
“but… If Kwangwoon meets CEO Lee, he might change his mind.”
“Haha, if you learn it properly, even if you entrust a junk dealer within three years, it won’t change at all… … .”
“If Kwangwoon learns properly, there will be no employees who will object to becoming the next CEO.”
Most of the Myeongsancheolje moved around Jin Jun-sik and Moon Jae-shin.
Quite a few employees are working at Myeongsan Steel, but none of them were dissatisfied with this.
In addition, Vice President Jin Jun-shik welcomed Moon Kwang-woon as the next representative, so there was no need to rot in the head with internal politics.
“I’m hungry. What better chance than this… … .”
“Shall we make a seat with this representative?”
“It’s a place to ask for my son, so I’ll have to go find it myself. I’ll take care of it, Director Jin takes care of other things. By the way, do you think the price will go up once more?”
“yes. It is information that is leaking from inside Daehan Steel.”
Siwoo Lee’s prediction that it would go up to 350 won was correct.
In fact, as the unit price rose by 20 won at a time, it even reached 350 won.
“It’s going up steeper than I thought. That’s not good.”
From the standpoint of a famous iron producer, it was advantageous for scrap metal prices to be maintained.
As long as there is a fixed amount to be delivered every day.
Unlike Nuri, he was in a position to send 1,000 tons of scrap metal to the steelworks every month.
If the price went down, it was a problem, and if it went up, it was a problem.
“That’s it. The bigger the ups and downs, the bigger the unit price fluctuation.”
“Come to think of it, CEO Lee is except for a car full of people after going up to 350 won.”
“It’s a bit off-putting, but doesn’t that mean that you know that when the price goes up, it goes down by that much?”
“It must have been the result of research and hard work.”
“I don’t know how much the unit price will hold up, but it might be a good idea to pause delivery for a while.”
“You know that it might be too late if you subtract 360 won. Deliveries to steel mills will continue. If possible, send all the scrap rails you brought from Nuri. You might get really sick if you try to eat another 10 won.”
“Yes, sir.”
“You don’t have to take risks. Safety is always a top priority.”
