[57] After a turning point
Choi Eun-seok, who was conducting on the spot, trembled with his shaggy shoulders.
It happened because of his own mistake.
This caused a lot of damage to DS.
The financial problem and the image of the company were also ruined.
‘I’ll definitely catch you.’
A human who passed all responsibility to DS and disappeared.
In order to catch the representative of Eco Environment, Choi Eun-seok had reported it to the police.
However, it was difficult to find someone who was determined and dived.
“You worked hard today, Eunseok-ah.”
“… President, I am sorry.”
Choi Eun-seok bowed his head as if he had no face.
Han Kang-ho shook his head and patted his shoulder.
I ran all the way here with the determination to jump over the famous mountain.
A position raised by the abilities of Han Kang-ho and Choi Eun-seok.
No matter what anyone said, it was Choi Eun-seok’s great work that was made for the DS.
“Don’t be discouraged. It’s my fault too.”
If it hadn’t been urged, if it hadn’t been forcing me to find a way somehow. As such, there was also the fault of Han Kang-ho.
If that had been the case, Eunseok Choi would have faithfully moved for DS without throwing irrational numbers.
Han Kang-ho remembered Yoo Jae-woo’s words.
― President, do you know what I was thinking after leaving this deputy manager?
Lee Seok-jun suddenly came out of Yoo Jae-woo’s mouth while he was sipping a drink.
Yoo Jae-woo said that he regretted letting The K go more than he was shaken by Jang Seong-woo.
If Lee Seok-jun hadn’t left, it wouldn’t take too long to restore it to its original state.
― You must take good care of Director Choi Eun-seok. It is one of the backbones that drives DS, so you must not be fooled by familiarity and lose sight of something important.
After the eco-environment happened, Han Kang-ho was awakened by Yoo Jae-woo’s sincere sound.
“CEO.”
“I put too much burden on Director Choi. If it hadn’t been for urging, this wouldn’t have happened.”
“The damage is too great. When this is done, the responsibility… … .”
“Director Choi has only one responsibility. After this is done, working for DS again.”
“If I remain in the DS, the president may suffer too.”
“Think of it as learning by paying expensive tuition. Because they seem like only me and Choi and Scrap.”
Han Kang-ho smiled faintly.
I paid a hefty tuition fee, but I learned that the world is not easy.
And I knew that there was only one way to get through difficult times.
“In times like these, we need to come together. When I look at Nuri’s representative, I realize a lot.”
Even in difficult circumstances, Nuri’s employees continued their work with a smile.
If there was someone in need, he supported me and helped me.
I also saw Siwoo Lee with his arms rolled up in the yard of the shredder.
Choi Eun-seok bowed his head in a weeping voice at Han Kang-ho’s comfort.
“I will do my best.”
“It was a problem since we were trying to compete with Nuri in the first place… When this is over, erase it from your memory.”
A week has passed since the waste was disposed of.
A place where a significant amount of waste has disappeared.
The surroundings were cluttered with heavy equipment and waste being blown away by the wind.
Choi Eun-seok, who looked at the scene with bitter eyes, followed Han Kang-ho.
“I took out quite a lot of stuff in a week. It must have been proven that Nuri’s representative was not at a level that could be ignored just because he was young in the first place.”
“When you see half of the waste being processed in a week, I feel the momentum is considerable.”
“Maybe, was it not because of the current keynote that talented people did not appear in the junk trade world?”
“There is a tendency to subtly and openly ignore young representatives. And CEO Lee Si-woo overcame such a view and eventually established a shredding plant.”
There was no particular reason why young men did not enter the job of a junk dealer.
The social tone was to avoid hard work.
And another thing, the junk dealer industry was not a field that young people could start without experience.
“Nuri has CEO Lee Si-woo, but our DS has Director Choi. And in Myeongsan, the son of President Moon, who has served in the military, will return.”
“Comparing myself to CEO Lee… … .”
“why? Do you think Director Choi has no foundation?”
“CEO Lee Si-woo is already the CEO of a company, and in the case of Myeong-san’s son, there is a high probability that he will be appointed as the next CEO. I’m just a person who can only help the CEO.”
“Don’t underestimate yourself. There is absolutely no shortage of Director Choi compared to the two of them.”
* * *
Siwoo Lee raised his arms.
“finished!”
The last dump truck from the site finished cleaning up the dumped waste.
The staff showed faint smiles at the sight of Siwoo Lee raising his arms.
“You worked hard, boss.”
“It’s what I have to give. You suffered. I’m glad it was taken care of in 2 weeks. Now, put the collected waste into a bin and finish work early today, Manager Kang.”
The work, which would have taken two to three months, was completed earlier than expected.
In just two weeks, 200 tons of waste were disposed of.
The next day after the work was finished, Han Kang-ho and Choi Eun-seok entered the shredding plant.
“How can a small junkyard grow to this size in just one year… Jang Seong-woo made the worst choice.”
“That’s right, boss.”
The person who was entangled with Si-Woo Lee through a terrible affair.
But now no one knows where he is.
“Are you here?”
Siwoo Lee, who arrived early in the morning and was in the temporary office, checked the CCTV and came out.
“Thank you very much, Mr. Lee.”
Han Kang-ho sincerely bowed his head toward Lee Si-woo.
Otherwise, everything on the DS would have been blown away.
“Come in.”
A building was being built to be used as an office that is now enjoyed.
It was being built with great care to make it both an office and a resting space for employees.
“I came here to discuss the cost of waste disposal. I wrote the contract, but he didn’t tell me exactly how much I had to pay.”
Sitting in the empty office with a tense expression on his face, Han Kang-ho carefully asked the amount.
It was originally a processing cost that could have exceeded 200 million.
However, with Si-Woo Lee’s wit, he was able to significantly reduce the period and significantly reduce the labor cost.
“The number of workers in Nuri was five a day. Their daily wage was estimated to be 600,000 won per day, and when the rest of the employees were included, the labor cost for two weeks was calculated to be around 1,500. And this is what we used to pay for waste disposal.”
The cost of treating 200 tons of waste is about 70 million won.
Including the transportation cost, it could be handled at a cost of about 90 million won.
Han Kang-ho had a blank expression on the record that it was processed cheaper than expected.
Initially, it was estimated that the processing cost of up to 300 million to 400 million won was expected.
“In total, it cost around 90 million won. However, Nuri also worked hard for two weeks, so I hope you will pay us 150 million won.”
Han Kang-ho laughed at Lee Si-woo’s outspoken statement that he would make a net profit of 60 million won.
Everyone shook their heads and succeeded in what they were about to give up.
Not only that, but the material was also revealed transparently.
Siwoo Lee had the right to make a bold request.
“Originally, we were expecting about 300 million won in processing costs. The processing cost has been cut in half with the power of the representative, so you should give as much as you want.”
“thank you.”
“Instead, I would like to transfer the waste suppliers that DS is dealing with to Nuri.”
After all, from the moment he was struck by the eco-environment, Han Kang-ho decided not to do it with waste any more.
Although it is a waste of the customers we have captured so far, it was better to hand it over to Nuri than to hand it over to another waste company.
“Anything you want?”
“It is difficult for us to deal with, so we hand it over to Nuri. It would be impossible to shamelessly demand anything else from the representative who rescued DS from crisis.”
“okay.”
“In the future, DS will never touch Nuri’s business partners. This is something that I, as the representative, can promise with certainty.”
Although he made scrap metal as his main business, Han Kang-ho no longer wanted to compete with Nuri.
You can’t compete in the same way it used to be against a company that helped DS work as an enemy.
“Nuri is currently working with waste and scrap metal at the same time. Don’t you think that the DS will take away the scrap metal it takes to dispose of the waste?”
Han Kang-ho could see the human side of Lee Si-woo.
If it had been another representative, it was obvious that he would steal the scrap metal without saying such a thing.
‘This must have moved the heart of the CEO of Myeongsan.’
“Still, isn’t it unavoidable? It’s impossible to start anew with waste.”
At Han Kang-ho’s words, Lee Si-woo smiled and nodded his head.
“There is something my father told me.”
“… You are talking about the former CEO of Nouri.”
“Yes, my father taught me how to coexist rather than monopolize. What would you do if you were more greedy here?”
The moment one company disappears, the chaos of the junkyard will occur.
And what if that company is the target?
It was certain that there was going to be a huge confusion.
“I heard rumors that he was a wonderful person. It’s win-win… … .”
“He was a good person. As promised, we will only trade waste. Don’t worry, we won’t touch the scrap metal.”
The 150 million to be paid to Nuri and the DS had to incur significant labor and transportation costs while sorting out this waste.
All transport costs for the dump trucks were paid by DS.
“If you cut the bill, I will deposit it right away.”
“Then I will take care of the bill today.”
It established a shredding plant and made a profit of 60 million won in two weeks.
This was possible because Nuri’s employees moved with one heart and one mind.
Si-woo Lee, who was sitting in the office where Han Kang-ho and Choi Eun-seok had left, called somewhere.
Now, in a week, it was the payday of the employees.
“Aunt, I’m Siwoo.”
[Yeah, what’s going on since early morning?]
“I want to pay 1 million won in incentives from the salaries of the employees this month, can you handle it?”
[One million won each?]
“Recently, I had to work hard. Oh, and today, the DS side will deposit 150 million won. I will send you the business registration certificate, so please cut the bill.”
[how much? 1 million… 50 million won?]
Shin Woo-cheol’s wife, Jin Eun-soo, who answered the phone call, was surprised to hear that the amount was over 100 million.
“yes. For the two weeks of hard work, you should be paid that much. And Aunt, have I asked you yet?”
What Jin Eun-soo asked for.
Siwoo Lee needed an employee to take responsibility for the company’s funds and handle it.
I wanted someone who knew about accounting as well as possible, so I asked Eun-soo Jin for the right person.
[Um, I have no one to recommend. Shall we go to the country?]
“If your aunt comes, will you welcome her with open arms?”
[Are you really going to accept it? Still, my whole body hurts. Because of the nature of this job, things come at once.]
“Are you really going to the tax office?”
[yes. I did tell him I’m thinking of quitting my job… … .]
“If your aunt says you’re coming to Nuri, I’m always welcome.”
It was a money related job.
We had to look at our accounting so we could cut taxes.
As Nuri grew, the number of bills that had to be sorted out was increasing.
[In a month, I will organize the tax office and tell you.]
“Yes, I will wait.”
[I’ll take care of the employee incentives, so don’t worry.]
“I’m not worried. It’s what my aunt does.”
After hanging up with Eunsoo Jin, Siwoo Lee gave a faint smile.
I thought the best way to repay the employees who worked hard for two weeks was to give them incentives.
You have to give it back to your employees.
And there was a part where I made an appointment with the staff in the first place.
‘Because I said I would repay you when Nuri grows bigger and you make that much money.’
For a year, the employees have been suffering with Siwoo Lee.
As Nuri grew in size, it was natural to give it to employees.
“I’m here, boss.”
Currently, Nuri’s head office was in charge of Lee Seok-jun.
Kang Pil-joong and Lee Si-woo focused on stabilizing the waste business.
“Are you here?”
“I came early.”
“I still had something to say, but that’s good.”
