The Junk Dealer Makes Good Money - The Junk Dealer Makes Good Money chapter 167
[Episode 167] Cutting water with a knife
The two of them, who came out of the hospital and walked side by side, turned their heads towards each other at the same time.
“… Sorry.”
Si-woo Lee apologized to Ae-ra Shin first.
During their relationship, the two seldom fought.
Because they always respected each other’s opinions.
“I’m more sorry. I know that the reason you are suffering is because of me. I’m sorry, I was more stubborn.”
“I… Before I became more greedy, I had a strong desire to return the chairperson’s seat to my sister.”
“Siu.”
“I don’t feel greedy because I think it’s not my place right now. But in the future, I fear that I will become so greedy that it is difficult to return the chairmanship… … .”
You never know when people will change.
Even if I wasn’t greedy for the position of chairman now, I wouldn’t know later.
“You have to think about it too. The fact that I have a significant stake in Gangdong.”
“… is it?”
“Isn’t that obvious? And even if you own a lot of stock, you can change the position of the chairman at any time as long as you have the stock of your grandfather and mine.”
Even Shin Ae was not without thoughts.
If Si-Woo Lee mismanaged, he could always take over the right to operate.
At her words, Si-Woo scratched his head.
“Am I stupid?”
“I guess it’s because I’m in a hurry. Shiu-ya, my dream is not to become the chairman of Gangdong.”
“Then what?”
“Being a good mother and a good wife.”
He was a father who had to do everything to earn money for a hospital bill with his mother who was always ill.
Shin Ae-ra grew up dreaming while watching her parents.
As a result, I wanted to meet a good man and build a happy family, and my dream was to become a wise and wise wife.
“ah… … .”
“After Kang Dong’s work is over, are you going to set a wedding date?”
“It should be. But I feel like I’m in a hurry to get married… Sorry.”
“Why are you sorry? Rather, I should be sorry to you, idiot.”
As she said, there was nothing Siwoo did wrong.
Because of Shin Won-sun’s physical condition, the marriage had to be rushed.
Rather, it was Shin Ae-ra who should be in a hurry, but for some reason, Lee Si-woo was apologizing.
“sister… Can we live well?”
“You should live well. I just want to show my grandfather a good side. If we fight, then Grandpa will be sad. So, let’s not fight.”
“yes. Again, sorry for being stubborn.”
“it’s okay. So, did it come to the conclusion that Kang Dong-eui’s position as chairman would remain the same? Don’t say anything else later.”
“Think a little more. It’s important. It’s not a matter of making decisions all of a sudden.”
Shin Ae-ra nodded her head.
She didn’t want to force Lee Si-woo.
In addition, this time too, as he said, was a decision that had to be made step by step and carefully.
Shin Ae-ra placed her hand on Si-woo’s head and stroked it.
“Let’s find the answer slowly. I don’t have to make any hasty decisions right now.”
“okay. The answer is not going to come just because we fight.”

Choi Dan-yi and Sa Hae-jin were having dinner together.
“I got an offer from the vice president, boss.”
The two have been together for a long time as Nuri’s business partners.
Therefore, Choi Dan-yi thought that it was right to share these worries together.
It was Sa Hae-jin who even introduced Lee Si-woo.
“Honestly, there must have been more executive positions at Gangdong Works than the boss of a small junk store. I got the same offer, President Choi.”
“Is that so? The boss doesn’t want to clean up our resources, does he?”
“How much do I have to do if I have to be a junk dealer? At the very least, it will be around 10 years.”
“but… Because both me and the boss are old.”
He struggled all his life to survive as a junk dealer.
He did not choose any means and methods so as not to be pushed by other junk dealers.
The reason that Sa Hae-jin and Lee Do-woon set up a date was to survive.
“Because of that, I’ve done a lot of wrong with Si-woo’s father.”
“… It’s the first I’ve heard of it.”
“Fufu, that’s right. CEO Lee doesn’t go around talking like this in order to cover up my ugly mistake. Shame on you, really.”
Sa Hae-jin calmly told Choi Dan-yi about his embarrassing past.
It was only after Lee Do-woon passed away that he realized how badly he had done wrong.
“I didn’t know that would happen. CEO Lee Si-woo and the boss seem to be very friendly… … .”
“How hard it must have been for Siu… Still, it doesn’t bother me at all.”
“Isn’t this CEO thinking too deeply for his age?”
Sa Hae-jin decided to hand it over to Nuri because he was a junk dealer to sort out anyway.
He received Moon Jae-shin’s proposal and accepted it without any hesitation.
How long will you live now?
Before I die, I wanted to pay off the debt I owed to Lee Do-woon.
“So, I would have risen to the position of president.”
“Do you have a stomach ache?”
“Huh… President Choi, I am the person who is happier than anyone because Siwoo is doing well.”
“So, are you going to accept the vice president’s proposal?”
“I have already given you an answer. I did.”
When Sa Hae-jin said that he accepted Moon Jae-shin’s proposal, Choi Dan-yi’s expression became more comfortable.
The two were business owners who had been together since Nuri grew up.
We were friends from the beginning, but after getting to know Siwoo Lee, we became much closer than before.
“Then I won’t have to worry any more.”
“Anyway, I met CEO Choi to do that request. Shiu must be very difficult.”
“I also wanted to work for CEO Lee Si-woo once. I suddenly thought of what kind of representative I am to be loved so much by Nuri’s employees.”
“That must be Siwoo’s ability.”
“I was worried about where Dan was going to go after organizing the resources, but I can’t tell you how grateful I am that CEO Lee made the offer at the right time.”
The two made a decision.
Cleaning up the junkyard wasn’t that difficult.
Besides, there was no need to worry as long as the place to take over was Nuri.
* * *
After the two met, Choi Dan-yi contacted Moon Jae-shin and agreed to become Kang-dong’s executive.
So Hae-jin Sa and Dan-i Choi were decided to become executives.
There are now four seats left for the executives.
The position had to be filled with the most capable people.
“CEO, Dan-yi Choi has agreed.”
[Then the CEO Sa Hae-jin and Choi Dan-yi have been confirmed as executives.]
“yes. I’m sure the two of you will be able to put the shaky departments right.”
[Because I can assure you of their abilities. Vice President, I came to meet Grandpa today.]
“I received a report from Team Leader Lee Moo-yeol. What were you talking about?”
[My older sister says she doesn’t want to rise to the chair. I’m worried about it. Nuri and Gangdong. Will I be able to run both at the same time? … .]
It was something to think about.
As Siwoo Lee said, it was difficult to take care of Nuri recycling and Gangdong Works at the same time.
However, Moon Jae-shin showed a bright expression.
“You must not say that you will not be able to run Nuri and Gangdong at the same time.”
[Vice President… … .]
“The representative told me this. It’s not always the easy way. And anyway, in Nuri’s plan, the establishment of a steel mill has already been decided.”
[Yeah, but… I didn’t know it would happen so suddenly.]
“It is natural to be worried, but please trust the people who are by your side. Just as we trust the CEO, the CEO must also trust the executives of Nuri.”
[Absolutely.]
“Congratulations on being president.”
congratulations too late.
However, Moon Jae-shin decided that once Kang-dong was cleared up, Lee Si-woo would immediately turn over to Shin Ae-ra.
Because of his personality, he did not covet others.
However, if the situation was like this, I thought it would be okay for Siwoo Lee to keep his position.
[I doubt if I can get this position, but I have to do my best as long as I am in charge.]
“It is probably not a big deal to raise executives. So, don’t worry, the chairman only needs to think about Kang Dong’s well-being.”
Moon Jae-shin hung up the phone and burst into laughter with a happy expression.
After dinner with his family, he was sitting in the living room eating fruit.
Moon Kwang-woon, who was watching TV, blinked in surprise at the sound of Moon Jae-shin’s laughter.
“Father, what’s going on?”
“The CEO said that he would keep Kang Dong-eun’s position as chairman. Whoops.”
“Yes? Wasn’t that place, Shin Ae-ra, back to the boss?”
“It is said that CEO Shin Ae-ra said that he did not intend to rise to the position of chairman.”
Although it was good news, Moon Kwang-woon had no choice but to worry.
If Siwoo Lee retains the position of Chairman Kang Dong… … .
“Then do you enjoy it?”
“We should discuss it later. It is up to the president to decide whether to keep Nuri and Gangdong independent as they are now or to merge them into one.”
“Hmm, it might be better to operate separately rather than merge. But I’m worried that Nuri without my brother will become unstable again.”
“Maybe they will stick to the merger.”
“Your brother must have a lot of trouble. We have to decide whether to inherit Nuri’s name or Kang Dong’s name.”
It didn’t have to be complicated.
Even if there was a merger, it was enough to keep the name of Gangdong as it is.
And above all else, the major shareholder of Gangdong also includes the prince group.
Amalgamation is only possible with the permission of the prince.
‘No worries. The prince will be on the president’s side.’
* * *
Si-woo Lee met Shin Won-sun and returned to Gangdong.
He sighed as he looked at the staff in the strategic secretary’s office who didn’t want to leave work even after 11 p.m.
“Take the employees off work, manager Lee.”
Work was important, but distribution of stamina was more important.
It was only the first day of work.
No matter what, you should sleep comfortably at home.
Lee Moo-yeol, who came into the office with Si-woo Lee’s instructions, bowed his head.
“The president… … .”
“I have data to look at.”
Lee Moo-yeol nodded his head when he said that he would stay without leaving work.
“Strategic Secretary! everyone go to work I put down the materials I was reviewing and stood up.”
Those who were reviewing Lee Moo-yeol’s instructions without realizing the passage of time rose from their seats.
Kim Seo-hwan, who checked the time and realized that it was already past 11, stretched.
“I have to go to work at 7 o’clock tomorrow. Go home today, get some rest, and see you tomorrow.”
At the words of Seo-hwan Kim, who got up from his chair, the staff of the strategic secretariat also greeted them and left work immediately.
And while Kim Seo-hwan was getting ready for work, he stopped and looked at Lee Mu-yeol.
“Aren’t you going?”
“The president is still there, how do you get off work?”
“President? Did you just change your name?”
Before going to Shin Won-sun’s hospital, Lee Mu-yeol referred to Lee Si-woo as the CEO.
Seohwan Kim tilted his head at the sudden name change.
“CEO Shin Ae-ra said that she has no intention of taking over the position of chairman.”
“What?”
“In other words, the chairman of Kang Dong-eun does not change.”
Kim Seo-hwan smiled faintly at the unexpected news.
In terms of operation, Siwoo Lee’s right arm was Moon Jae-shin and his left arm was Jin Eun-soo.
However, among the secretaries, the two who remained here were those who could be said to be Si-woo Lee’s close associates.
Even though they were all important employees, the two had a different meaning to Siwoo Lee.
“I should stay until the president leaves work.”
“Here I am… … .”
“Isn’t it the same team leader level? you or me.”
“It is an undeniable fact.”
“I won’t let you suffer alone.”
After all the employees left work, Siwoo Lee opened the door and left the empty office.
“Why don’t you two go to work?”
“The president is still there, so how can we leave work first? We will help you review the material.”
Lee Si-woo scratched his head at Kim Seo-hwan’s sad smile, and then sat down on a chair.
“I make dinner. And how about a beer?”
“The data review… … ?”
“There is no need to overdo it on the first day. As it is a long-term game, I and the team leaders have to be physically fit. just… I don’t want to go home today.”
