The Junk Dealer Makes Good Money - The Junk Dealer Makes Good Money chapter 123

[Episode 123] The Changing Phase

The moment Boseong made a boycott of Cheil Cement, he was convinced that many construction companies would not use Cheil’s.

That was the present location of Boseong.

It was difficult for the CEO of Cheil Cement to meet Park Soo-beom one-on-one.

Lim Ji-ho kept his head down and apologized.

“sorry.”

“I give you a warning. I will listen.”

“Yes, I will read it.”

“Don’t treat CEO Lee Si-woo recklessly. If it looks wrong to CEO Lee Si-woo, then it will not end with the most cement going bankrupt.”

“I will keep that in mind.”

“This construction uses the best cement. Chief Choi.”

Choi Ji-hoon, who was silently listening to the two of them, bowed his head.

“Yes, Chairman.”

“Do all construction with the best cement. Instead, if there is a request from CEO Lee Si-woo, we make a next-best solution so that we can stop the transaction right away.”

“I will take action.”

Lim Ji-ho bowed his head deeply at Park Soo-bum’s words.

If you whip down, sometimes you have to give them carrots too.

It’s easy to pressure Jeil Cement not to play with Nuri’s stuff.

At that time, Park Soo-beom saw Lee Si-woo walking in the distance.

“President Park, you were with me.”

“Isn’t the initial construction important? It is an important construction project, so we have to pay attention to it.”

A man approaching Park Soo-beom friendly and smiling.

Lim Ji-ho looked down at Lee Si-woo with a pale expression.

“You are the CEO of Nuri Recycling, Siwoo Lee, CEO Im.”

I came face to face with a person I had only heard of through rumors.

Lim Ji-ho was startled, bowed his head, and introduced himself.

“My name is Jiho Lim, the representative of Cheil Cement.”

“Ah, this is the first time I’ve seen you like this. What’s going on here… … ?”

The deal with Cheil Cement was not led by Siwoo Lee.

Directors like Kang Pil-jung and Jin Eun-soo only met with Lim Ji-ho to discuss.

From Nuri’s point of view, cement was the most important customer.

But if things go bad, there are many cement companies that can replace them.

The company that Siwoo Lee did not need to be treated with care, that was the most cement.

“Ah, CEO Lim asked me to use Cheil Cement for this construction. Whoops.”

Park Soo-beom’s gaze, which was cold and determined, changed softly.

When he explained the situation with a gentle expression, Jiho Lim felt goosebumps all over his body.

“okay. It is not that Cheil Cement and Nouri have nothing to do with each other, so I should ask the chairman.”

Although it was not a close business relationship.

However, there was a feeling of regret that the unit price of Cheil Cement was adjusted.

At Lee Si-woo’s request, Park Soo-beom gave a faint smile.

“We have just decided to supply the best cement for this construction. Perhaps the construction of the building that Nouri asked for will also be carried out with the best cement.”

At Park Soo-beom’s words, Si-woo bowed politely.

He was a person who knew the relationship between Nuri and Jeil and allowed the supply of cement.

“Thank you for caring me.”

“I am happy that I can help this representative.”

When Park Soo-beom showed a completely different behavior from what he had seen before, Lim Ji-ho swallowed his saliva.

“And thank you for accepting the negotiation this time, sir.”

“Oh, no. We have also benefited for a year, so we thought we should give it back to Nuri.”

“Fortunately, the. We wish you all the best in the future.”

“Thank you, President!”

Feeling the cold gaze of Park Soo-beom looking at him, Lim Ji-ho shed a lot of sweat.

Siwoo Lee, who looked at him with a pale expression, asked.

“CEO, where are you sick? face… … .”

“Oh, no. I have a schedule today, so I think I should go first. I will be sure to formally greet you next time.”

Lee Si-woo tilted his head as he left the seat as if running away.

“What happened?”

“Nothing happened. I did say that I was pretending.”

Park Soo-beom escaped the situation with a witty base.

When he said that he was pretending, Siwoo Lee nodded and looked at the construction site.

“okay. By the way, the president must be busy with the town development project at the same time.”

“I can only look at the whole situation. Boseong employees do the work. I heard the news. A new general manager is coming. Are you the deputy chief’s son?”

“yes. He still has a lot to learn. And he’s like my little brother.”

Park Soo-beom heard the news from Shin Ae-ra.

I have a friend who will be discharged from the army soon.

I was curious because I also heard that Siwoo is like a younger brother.

What kind of young man does Siwoo Lee care about?

“When will you have a seat for me?”

“Thank you for telling me first what I need to ask.”

While the two were having a conversation, Young-geun Lee, the head of the village, approached.

“Did this representative also come?”

When Lee Young-geun appeared, the two of them bowed their heads at the same time to welcome him.

“It’s close, sir.”

“but… Oh, Chairman Park, I have something to tell you. Do you have time?”

Park Soo-beom nodded at Lee Young-geun’s request to ask carefully.

“yes. What’s going on, sir?”

“I came here because I have something to ask the president.”

At Lee Young-geun’s cautious remarks, Park Soo-beom guided me to the temporary office.

“Can I listen too?”

“Sure. I also had a favor to ask of the CEO, and that’s good.”

Upon entering the temporary office made of containers, Choi Ji-hoon gave coffee to the three and went out.

“Chief, what happened to the village?”

“Ah, that… There is one villager who is in a bad situation, and his house is ruined. The roof is old and on the verge of collapsing.”

“ah.”

“You are living in the town hall right now, and there are not one or two things that make you uncomfortable. Chairman Park, I have come to ask if you can repair the building of the villagers first.”

Park Soo-beom, who heard the situation, nodded with a look of disinterest.

There were many concessions in the village, so I had to return a larger amount.

“If you tell me the location, I will start the repairs today, Mr. Lee.”

“thank you.”

“no. I know the town is yielding a lot right now. We need to act quickly on this.”

As soon as Park Soo-beom accepted, Lee Young-geun sighed in relief.

“What you are asking me to do is… … ?”

“Even if we repair the house, we don’t have complete appliances. It was raining and it broke down.”

“I will pick up used products that are in good condition. It’s summer, so I’ll have to turn off the air conditioner.”

At Lee Si-woo’s words, Lee Young-geun took his hand warmly.

“thank you. Thanks to this representative, the quality of the villagers is gradually improving… How should I repay this favor? … .”

“Don’t say that. The people who gave me the land left by Grandma Kim without any conditions were the head of the village and the villagers. I still have a lot to pay off.”

Conflicts between residents and factories or businesses occur in an instant.

There are poor quality residents, but there are also many companies that make money using simple residents.

However, if they yielded only one foot to each other, coexistence was possible without conflict.

“Lee, take care of your health. You have to see how the town develops.”

“Cancer, that’s it.”

Park Soo-beom looked at the two of them happily.

At the request of Young-geun Lee, the workers in Boseong moved.

Park Soo-beom made a decision after hearing that it was not at a level that could be fixed by repairing the roof.

“Take it all down and build it again. And the waste that comes out will be sorted out in Nuri.”

“Is that okay?”

“Even if you have few days left to live, you should be comfortable for the rest of your life.”

He met Lee Young-geun and told him that he wanted to build a house again.

Young-geun Lee scratched his head when he said that it only took about a month to build.

“Even if you don’t… … .”

“Now, Boseong and this village must coexist together. We promised to create a village, and we promised that we would do our best to make life easier for the residents. If you let the elderly stay at the town hall for only a month or two, we will take care of it.”

Grandpa Zhu, the owner of the house, who lives in the town hall, was startled to hear the sound.

“If you just repair enough to make a living… … .”

“Senior, you don’t have to think about getting help. We, Boseong, receive great help from the villagers. Wouldn’t it be nice to do something like this in order to be proud of the residents in the future?”

“I mean, it just seems like a nuisance. I am an old man with only a few days left to live.”

“Don’t say that. The elderly can stay here until the house is built.”

Grandfather Joo, with tears in his eyes, held Park Soo-beom’s hand strongly.

“Thank you.”

“We will do everything we can to make sure that the elderly can enjoy a comfortable stay at the town hall. If you ever need anything, please let me know.”

Park Soo-beom has never been involved in any activities to help anyone because he has been concentrating on his work.

However, looking at Siwoo Lee from his side, he was also envious.

Because it seemed cool to use the accumulated wealth to help someone.

‘How about moving my residence to this village?’

It was a place with good air and good people.

It was Park Soo-bum’s dream that he wanted to enjoy the rest of his life with nature rather than living in a desolate city center.

So, I wanted to form a country house.

The land was purchased to uncover the corruption of Kang Eung-ryong, but the intention to build a rural housing complex on the land was sincere.

‘How about taking a seat here.’

There was no need to think that the civil engineering work was a waste.

When the mountain topography becomes flat, the price of the land increases several times.

There was absolutely no damage.

“Chief Lee, what would happen if a country house complex was built in this area?”

Lee Young-geun blinked at Park Soo-beom’s sudden words.

Soon after, my head started to roll in business.

We had to carefully approach once again what would be advantageous for the ossuary business and what businesses would be derived from the ossuary.

* * *

Lee Si-woo blinked at the sudden appearance of Park Soo-beom.

“Is the house such a mess?”

“They told me that repairing the roof would cause other problems in a few months.”

“I know. We will dispose of the waste from my grandfather’s house for free.”

“Instead, the scrap metal that comes out during demolition can also be taken from Nuri.”

“Thank you for making such an important decision, Chairman.”

“I felt that Mr. Lee supported various things for free for the village. When I saw the old man holding my hand and saying thank you, I was proud of something.”

An emotion that cannot be expressed in words rose up.

Looking at his grandfather’s expression, Park Soo-beom was able to feel emotions he had never felt before.

“First of all, if you give a hand out in good faith, the people who have helped me one day will give you back several times that amount. Of course, there are some who don’t, but those who have lived a hard life know what it is to give.”

There is a saying

Rich people never give their things to others.

But those who know poverty know how to give to others.

Siwoo Lee realized those words desperately through this village.

Kim’s grandmother also left many things to Lee Si-woo through a short relationship.

Not only the land he left behind, but also what kind of mindset Lee Si-woo should have in the future.

“It’s not about asking for something in return.”

“That’s what good intentions are. But those who have received that goodwill will not think so. I am sure that one day I will come back to the President again.”

Park Soo-beom nodded at Lee Si-woo’s gaze with a faint smile.

“I have a formal request from Nuri.”

“What kind of request?”

Seeing Park Soo-beom’s serious expression on his face, Lee Si-woo also straightened his back and asked.

“As part of the village development, I want to demolish old houses and build new ones. Instead, I would like you to dispose of the waste in Nuri.”

“I do that. We will also support used materials.”
