The Junk Dealer Makes Good Money

[Episode 10] I can bow my head even a hundred times

the day after the meeting.

Siwoo Lee woke up feeling a hangover.

‘Today, after work, I have to make scrap metal. It’s a big deal if you get drunk on a fork crane and have an accident.’

Safety should always be considered.

It is important to write the ability to generate scrap once a day, but safety cannot be left behind.

Si-woo turned his head to look for the watch.

The current time is 7 am.

The time for employees to go to work is fixed at 9 o’clock.

He grabbed his bitter stomach and boiled ramen.

I ate breakfast and finished tidying up, but time didn’t go by so quickly.

‘Eight not tried. uh… Head hurts.’

Ignoring his flaky hair, he changed into his work clothes and sat blankly in front of the office.

Not long after, Kang Pil-joong, with a relaxed expression on his face, went to work an hour earlier.

“You’re here too, boss.”

Although he didn’t start working, Siwoo Lee was his boss from the moment he entered the junkyard.

“Are you here early?”

“I’m sorry I couldn’t keep my promise, but I had something to say, so I left early.”

Kang Pil-joong made a decision.

It didn’t even take a week to think about it.

If it was helpful to Si-woo Lee, it was an offer that he had to accept unconditionally.

“Have you decided?”

“yes. I may not be able to do it, but I want to give it a try.”

Yesterday’s drinking party gave Kang Pil-joong strength.

Although it must have been a job that had to pioneer everything, there was no need to be intimidated from the beginning.

“Thank you, Knight Kang… No, Manager Kang.”

“I will do my best to do business in the future. Thank you for trusting me and giving me the opportunity, boss!”

A voice full of fighting.

Seeing his confident look, Siwoo Lee gave a faint smile.

“I am grateful. I may be lacking and Manager Kang will be lacking, but let’s do our best together.”

Si-woo Lee smiled happily, and Pil-jung Kang smiled after him.

At that time, the CCTV footage caught Moon Jae-shin entering the junkyard.

Si-woo Lee hurriedly went out to meet him.

Moon Jae-shin bowed his head toward Lee Si-woo, who was rushing out.

“I was surprised that you wanted to meet me early in the morning, CEO.”

“Greetings, Manager Kang.”

We had already exchanged greetings yesterday, but today’s Kang Pil-joong was a new person.

Kang Pil-joong bowed his head and said hello.

“It is said that Kang Pil-jung, who will be the sales manager of Nuri Recycling in the future, is CEO.”

“Haha, this is Moon Jae-shin, the representative of Myeongsan Steel.”

As the two greeted each other, Si-Woo Lee spoke to Jae-Shin Moon.

I have something to ask him again.

“CEO, I have a request for you, so I contacted you.”

“Hmm, let’s go inside.”

At Moon Jae-shin’s words to enter the office, Lee Si-woo nodded.

When Kang Pil-joong tried to enter the office together, Si-woo Lee shook his head.

“Director Kang, please look at the yard for a moment.”

“yes? Oh, I see.”

Kang Pil-joong, noticing that something important was going to happen, walked to the center of the yard.

As soon as he entered the office, Si-Woo Lee bowed his head 90 degrees toward Jae-Shin Moon.

“Sir, you don’t have to do this.”

“I was taught by my father to be polite when making a request.”

Even if Kang Pil-jung had a lot of experience, it was clear that sales related work would be difficult.

A position where you have to learn everything new.

However, Siwoo Lee didn’t even know about sales.

“What do you want to ask me?”

“I want to dispatch our sales manager to Myungsan Steel.”

If you can’t learn here, send him to a place where he can learn properly.

Lee Si-woo wanted Kang Pil-joong to learn various things from the side of Moon Jae-shin.

“Hmm, as a young representative, the mind itself is unique.”

“My experience is overwhelmingly lacking. Although he has a shallow knowledge of scrap and non-ferrous metals, he is completely ignorant of sales.”

Moon Jae-shin smiled lightly without knowing Si-woo Lee in the attitude of acknowledging his shortcomings.

“It would be.”

“Director Kang is a person who will do his best for Myeongsan Steel. Nuri will pay your monthly salary, so there is no need to worry about that.”

Sales were very important to the junk dealer.

Kang Pil-joong’s choice to pursue Nuri recycling could become meaningless if he learns poorly.

“If Manager Kang was taken from Myeongsan, all of our business partners would be exposed… … .”

“Can you trust me just one more time? I promise. I will never touch any business partners related to Myeongsan.”

This was very sensitive.

Exposing business partners could lead to damage if done wrong.

“Trust me… … .”

“I don’t know when that will be, but I will definitely pay back the help I received.”

“Hmm, I guess I’m not the only one who decides this issue.”

No matter how representative he was, he could not choose this important issue alone at will.

Because he wasn’t running the business alone.

Lee Si-woo nodded at Moon Jae-shin’s words.

“I’ll wait.”

“Let me ask you one thing. If I bring other employees and ask the CEO to bow his head, will you accept it?”

Moon Jae-shin suddenly wondered.

It was quite possible for the president to bow his head to the president.

Moreover, if the other party was a representative of a larger company, there was nothing to build pride in.

But if the other party is an employee who is not the CEO.

Moon Jae-shin wondered if the young-blooded Si-woo Lee would be able to bow his head to them as well.

“You can bow your head ten times or a hundred times. If I can convince the employees with that action, I will take it as much as I can, CEO.”

Pride?

Siwoo Lee thought that he could do as much as he could by bowing his head for the growth of an employee who treated him like family.

You need to know when to bow your head and when not to.

In this case, it belonged to the former.

If Kang Pil-joong grew up through this incident, and Nuri recycling could go further, this hill was nothing.

“Why are you doing that?”

“I promised. I will do my best as a representative to the employees.”

Moon Jae-shin was in trouble.

I asked the question out of curiosity, but I couldn’t hold back the excitement, so laughter seemed to keep coming out of my mouth.

How did such a young man grow up so well?

It was just arrogant.

“Hmm, could you please wait a moment?”

“Yes, sir.”

I didn’t want to give Lee Si-woo an embarrassment.

I just want to confirm his determination.

Moon Jae-shin, who called somewhere, gave the address of the junk dealer.

He hung up the phone and looked at Lee Si-woo with his arms crossed.

‘I’ll have to check if I’m only saying things that are nice to hear or if they’re sincere. Only then will I be able to fully trust CEO Lee Si-woo without any doubts.’

After about 30 minutes, all the employees of Nuri Recycling went to work.

And after that, three strangers entered the junkyard.

They were the people who immediately ran to Moon Jae-shin’s call.

They were the employees in charge of the sales of Myeongsan Steel.

Among them, Director Jin Jun-sik was also included.

The three of them approached Si-Woo Lee and Jae-Shin Moon, who came to meet them, and greeted them.

“Chief, have you called?”

“okay. CEO Siwoo Lee said he has something to ask of him.”

“yes?”

The three of them ran away without knowing the details, so they just tilted their heads.

Jin Jun-sik, who has the highest position among the three, revealed his curiosity.

With them behind them, Jae-Shin Moon said to Si-Woo Lee.

“CEO Lee Si-woo.”

“yes.”

“Director Jun-sik Jin is in charge of all sales related matters. I think you should ask Director Jin, not me… Is it possible?”

Kang Pil-joong, who was out in the yard, and Choi Moon-sik and Park Tae-moon, who came out of their work clothes, looked at the five people and tilted their heads.

The three of them, who were close by, could hear the conversation between Jae-Shin Moon and Si-Woo Lee.

“Available. Director Jin.”

Si-woo Lee called Jin Jun-sik softly.

Jin Jun-sik bowed his head at his words.

“Tell me, sir.”

“I would like to dispatch Manager Kang as a salesperson for Myungsan Steel for only one month. No, I would like to ask you to stay in Myeongsan until our manager learns how to properly sell.”

“yes? that… This is a sensitive matter, sir.”

Jin Jun-shik was perplexed and hesitated to answer.

Moon Jae-shin looked at Lee Si-woo silently without saying anything.

Somehow the other staff were watching, but it wasn’t bad.

nodded—

Siwoo Lee bowed his head 90 degrees without hesitation.

“Sir, boss?”

The first to react to the sudden action was Kang Pil-jung, who was overhearing the conversation nearby.

Then, Park Tae-moon approached them in anger.

Siwoo Lee was no longer just the son of the former CEO, but the pride of Nuri recycling.

At first, they were perplexed, but Kang Pil-joong and Choi Moon-sik were already blushing.

“What are you doing now!”

“it’s okay. I was just showing my sincerity.”

Despite Park Tae-moon’s adversity, Lee Si-woo calmly stopped him.

Then he turned his head and said with a bright smile to Jin Jun-sik, who had a blank expression on his face.

“I think it is difficult to accept as a single request. Go inside and talk again… … .”

“You can stop. That is enough, sir.”

It was enough.

No, it wasn’t enough, it was overflowing.

Moon Jae-shin stopped Lee Si-woo.

I actually lifted both hands and both feet.

I really didn’t know that I would bow my head in front of the staff.

I thought I would at least go inside the office and bow my head, but I never expected that I would do it so proudly.

“I fully understand the president’s feelings. First of all, I would like to apologize to the CEO and to the staff.”

“it’s okay.”

“I want you to know that this is not an action to embarrass the CEO. Because I am also the representative of a company, I have a personality that does not trust people well.”

“I understand, sir.”

It was important.

Others might wonder, ‘Why are you doing this because of a sales problem?’

However, for the junk dealer, it was necessary to avoid being known to the outside world.

That’s why I needed a justification to do Si-Woo Lee’s request.

There was a problem for Moon Jae-shin to grant Lee Si-woo’s request simply because he liked him.

So, this work was to confirm Lee Si-woo’s resolve and to appeal that the CEO had asked for a favor with his head bowed.

So far, Nuri Recycling and Myeongsan Steel have not built any trust.

In the meantime, the favors they have given were decisions made by trusting Shin Woo-cheol.

‘But from now on, it has become a relationship between me and CEO Lee Si-woo.’

Moon Jae-shin had an intuition that Lee Si-woo was not someone to look down on because he was young.

In order to achieve what you want, you have the flexibility to bend your pride, and the firmness to keep what you say straight away.

I really thought it had been a long time since I had a person who made me feel so many different emotions.

“Director Jin, I received a request, so I have to answer it. What do you think?”

Moon Jae-shin told Lee Si-woo that Jin Jun-sik had full control.

Jin Jun-sik was still contemplating with his complicated eyes, and then he closed his eyes.

‘You’re asking this much, but I don’t want to refuse. and… It seems that the CEO has already made a decision and tested Mr. Lee.’

Jin Jun-sik understood the whole situation.

Having spent a lot of time with Moon Jae-shin, I was able to understand how this sudden situation came about.

“I will accept your request. I apologize for the unintentional rudeness.”

Jin Jun-sik bowed his head 90 degrees like Si-woo Lee did.

And the people standing on either side of him bowed their heads together.

It seemed that Jin Jun-shik was not the only one who felt Lee Si-woo’s sincerity.

“thank you.”

Siwoo Lee smiled brightly as if he was relieved at that time.

He wanted to give Kang Pil-jung a proper chance.

As much as he had the courage to make a choice, I wanted to push him properly.

“president… … .”

“Chief Kang, go to work in Myeongsan until you learn how to sell business perfectly. I believe you will do well.”

Kang Pil-joong clenched his fists and trembled.

Thank you and I’m sorry.

He took care of himself even as he bowed his head and was so ashamed of himself that he had no choice but to receive such care.

He vowed to himself that he would never make this road that Siwoo Lee opened in vain.

“I will do my best, sir.”

“Even though it is far away, you just have to keep in mind that you will enjoy the place where Manager Kang will come back.”

It was not enough to say that I wanted to learn.

However, as the CEO of Myeongsan Cheolje was right in front of him, he had no choice but to buy his horse.

‘I’ll bring all the know-how Myeongsan has. Don’t be stubborn so that your bowing your head doesn’t mean anything. Thank you, Shiuya.’
