“Wow, that’s a lot of books. Have you read all of this?”

“Then, I didn’t throw away any of the books I read and kept them all. I made money for that.”

"Yeah?"

“If your house is small, shouldn’t you throw away all these books? To have a large house, you need money.”

"Ah yes… … .”

I thought that if I brought these books, Aides would like it.

But when Aides read it, the book died, so that thought was quickly put to rest.

“If you need a book, borrow it. Instead, you should write down what book you borrowed there. I can't lose it.”

When I looked where Teacher Baek was pointing, there was a small notebook. When I opened it, it looked like a book deposit box with Eunpureum's name written on it.

“Only the name of Eunpureum is written on it.”

“Even Pureum can’t borrow a book if she doesn’t write her name down. He didn't lose one or two books. Many books are out of print, so it is difficult to find. I told my working lady to read the book like that, but I haven't read it since I borrowed one and returned it. I read only the comic books that Pureum borrowed.”

“Comics are fun too.”

“How can you be so much like your mother?”

Teacher Baek coughed because he suddenly felt uncomfortable.

“Still, read it. Once you fall in love with a comic book, you won't be able to get out."

“Why do I read such a book? If that's not garbage, what is garbage?"

It's kind of weird that you overdo it.

At that moment, there was a sound of a pudding party, and books with colorful covers poured down next to Teacher Baek's luxurious desk.

“Uh, that… … ”

The surprised teacher Baek hastily picked up the book, but she was already late.

For the little mermaid, a land of silver rain, etc.

‘Huhu, you were reading it secretly. Somehow, my eyes were moist. I can't help but cry after reading this book.'

Embarrassed, Teacher Baek hastily picked up the books, but the books were more scattered because she was embarrassed.

“Oh, no. This is because Pureum read it in the library and laid it out... … My, I didn't read it.”

Trying to pretend I didn't know, I shifted my gaze to the books in the library.

However, I could see where the bookshelves were doubled, and through the cracks, I could see an aura that was different from the noble books.

When I pushed the bookshelf out of curiosity, another bookshelf was revealed behind me.

It was full of comic books.

When he saw that, Mr. Baek stopped his movements and got up.

“These are the books my daughter enjoyed reading during her lifetime. I wondered what was so funny that she was wearing a meet... … That was fun. At that time, she was reading a comic book or something, and why she hated seeing it so much… … But now, only that image remains in her memory.”

As he approached the side and looked at the bookshelf, the eyes of Teacher Baek, who were immersed in memories, were young and moist.

"Iknow, right. I was also beaten in the back of the head to stop reading comic books. There are a lot of good books out there, but do you only read comic books you meet?

"I know yeah. If you read it and enjoy it... … that's a good book People are so stupid In that moment, you will never realize After a while you will realize something. God made man that way.”

“I think the most important thing is to get it through regret.”

It really was.

Precious things seemed to exist only in the past.

“Ah, but Purum has really improved a lot.”

"I do not know. Even if you ask me to show you what I'm drawing, I won't show you. I'm dying of curiosity."

“I hope the book that Pureum draws out soon.”

“… … .”

Ms. Baek looked at her bookshelf for a moment and then returned to her table.

“Only about Friends and Next, the portal sites at the time you were talking about. I looked into it more closely and found it to be a worthwhile investment. I do not know how the Internet will change as it develops, but I have a feeling that society will revolve around the Internet in the future.”

"of course. In a few decades, without the Internet, people will not be able to do anything. You will find your way on the Internet, watch cartoons on the Internet, read a book, get information, and watch a movie.”

“For now, I plan to invest in both Friends and Next. What do you think?”

“Obviously you will get more than expected.”

“Why are you so sure? I didn’t know about that company by foot, and I don’t think I was predicting the future by carefully analyzing the data.”

Of course, I wanted to say that I had seen the future, but I couldn't.

“It’s just a feeling.”

“Then it will give you a chance to test your senses.”

“… … ”

“Oh, and did you bring the plan? At that time, I put on hold for a while the funds I was going to invest in the Funny Box run by the CEO Gyu-jik Choi. I will decide whether to invest or not based on the plan you bring. My fund manager insists on investing in Funnybox, so I am in a difficult situation.”

“Investing in Funnybox doesn’t mean you can’t make a profit. I think it’s just a question of question.”

“Of course, it would be better to invest in a good work and make a profit.”

I presented the plan for the movie ‘Legend’ that I had brought with me.

While drinking the tea that her aunt had brought, Ms. Baek reviewed the proposal.

“This is so inconvenient. Except for the good script, it's too poor. A new director, a new actor, and a new film company. What are you looking to invest in?”

In fact, I had nothing to say when I said that.

After much deliberation, I opened my mouth.

“It is their future.”

“The future?”

“My answer is that far.”

Teacher Baek pondered over my nonsense and fell into trouble.

“The future… … . I have invested in many futures over the years. Of course, it was my sense of carefully judging their worth. But sometimes it was right and sometimes it was wrong. But the odds were higher when it was right, so I was able to get my hands on the money each time.”

“… … ”

“But this time, I don’t know. Isn’t it about choosing the good over the better?”

“Ah, I’m afraid you might be misunderstood. It is not forced.”

“You didn't force it, but you can't ignore it. A fortune teller laying a mat on the side of the road is talking nonsense and grabbing me by the ankle, and I feel like I can’t just ignore it.”

“Yes, I know.”

“If you’re going to do divination, make sure you hit it. Then I will pretend to be deceived and invest.”

"what… … ?”

After taking a sip of her tea, Ms. Baek took a wad of papers from the drawer and pushed it in front of me.

"What is this?"

“You can see it.”

When I pulled out a document from the yellow envelope, it was a movie plan.

Both movies will be released at the same time this week, director Kim Woon-gi's "Lies" and Choi Dong-hyuk's "Two Faces".

Both were mystery crime films, and they were dropped without much audience due to poor screenplays and obvious endings.

“My friend said that movies make money, and he recently invested a little in these two movies. But which of these two films do you think will make money?”

“Both films seem to go down without going above the break-even point. Fortunately, the ‘two faces’ almost reached the break-even point, so it is unlikely that the principal will be lost, but the ‘liar’ does not seem to be able to preserve the principal either.”

"Hmm… … If you ask me why, I'd say it's a sense."

“… … .”

“Anyway, the conclusion will come soon, so let’s wait and see. If you're right, you're more likely to invest in the movie you're talking about."

"Yeah. But you don't have to rush. It’s difficult if I take a loss and blame myself.”

“What do you see me as? The choice is mine, and I don't invest at all if I want to blame others. hum. By the way, didn't you say you're investing too?"

"Yeah."

“I would not invest as an individual. If you have an idea, please join the fund we manage.”

Still, I had to raise people who could invest the money, but I thought it worked out well.

“Then thank you too.”

“Then let’s see them again a week after the release of these two films.”

"Yeah."

So, after finishing the story, I left the house with teacher Baek and Jang-mi seeing them off.

Then her aunt came out with a large cloth wrapped around her.

“Annam, take this.”

"What's this?"

"Pureum's grandfather told me to make a lot of side dishes, so I asked him why he did that, Annam, I think he did it to give it to him.

“Huh, so many? You can buy it and eat it.”

“I used to run a restaurant, so the side dishes are delicious. It’s not like buying and eating.”

“Oh, did you have a restaurant?”

“I made it big. If my husband's bastard didn't blow up the restaurant by gambling, would I be working here?"

“That… … But what restaurant did you have?”

“It’s just a sushi bar. sold only one However, back then, he came from afar. He should have cut off his fingernails when he first got into gambling.”

Her savage words came out of her innocent-looking aunt's mouth, and she was a little startled.

“Ah, all I can do is curse because of him. I'm sorry."

"no. It can be. Blow up the restaurant... … Anyway, I will eat well.”

“Then see you next time.”

As the old woman entered her house, she heard a grunt to herself.

“Hey, you have to come into every corner of the house, and you either get a divorce or not. Where did she live and where did she die? It's my sale."

* * *

When I went down to the laundromat, Gangnam-young was nowhere to be seen.

“Yeah, where did you go?”

I heard laughter from somewhere, and when I went to the garden, Yongcheon and Gangnam-young were laughing at what they liked.

'The sound of laughter never stops.'

Yongcheon, who found me, shouted warmly.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

"brother! I'm here."

“Yes, Yongcheon-ah. Did you study well?”

"Yeah. Is this hyung's friend? It's so much fun. It's exactly the same as Kim Kook-jin. I mean don't stay up all night. Mister, try it again."

Then, without hesitation, Gangnam-young mimics the vocal cords.

“I love you~ Don’t stay up all night~ I’m finished~”

Then Yongcheon laughed like crazy.

"you're good. It’s really similar.”

“If you listen with your eyes closed, it feels more real. Uncle, do it again.”

I put the side dish bowl on the table.

“Stop it now. eat rice Namyoung, you did a great job. We have a lot of guests.”

“Yes, I visited a lot.”

“Someone I know gave me this side dish, so let’s go eat.”

“Wow, thank you. Are you eating in the garden?”

“It’s good for me too, so that’s what I do. I'll go upstairs and bring you some rice."

“I will go with you and help.”

"no. You are a guest, so please be quiet.”

They came down with rice and a spoon, and Yongcheon and Gangnam-young's eyes widened when they saw the spread out side dishes.

“Wow, that would be really delicious. First of all, the visual is great.”

“I see.”

We took a bite of the side dishes with the spoons we picked up.

“Wow, this is really delicious. Who doesn't? If there is a restaurant that serves side dishes like this, I would like to meet you.”

Yongcheon is eating in a hurry without saying a word.

It didn't taste like normal to me.

The words of the aunt who said that her own side dishes were delicious were not empty words.

‘If I had a restaurant, I think there would have been quite a few customers, but it’s a waste.’

After eating all the rice, fruit was served for dessert.

It's a fruit brought from the magical forest, so how delicious would it be?

I did not know that Kangnam-young's exclamation would decrease.

“There is no such thing as a perfect heaven. I’m really going strong today.”

I was also full, but I grabbed an apple with my mouth shut, and then a scene flashed through my head.

I vividly recalled the situation in the office when I first signed a contract with the president of Good Body Gym.

“Mr. Gang Nam-young, the president of that gym, I think we can find it if we do well.”
