[Episode 40] Instant Peace

Si-woo Lee, who woke up early in the morning, looked at Moon Kwang-woon, who was still in a cool sleep.

Now it was time to leave.

After washing roughly and changing into work clothes, Si-woo Lee came out to the yard and expressed the generation of scrap metal.

Two tons of scrap metal was made in front of Siwoo Lee.

He started the excavator and threw the rebars into the pile of weight.

Kwang-Woon Moon, who woke up to the sound of the excavator moving diligently, rubbed his eyes and came out.

‘It’s still 6:30 in the morning… You are very diligent.’

Fortunately, when Moon Kwang-woon came out, all the rebars made from scrap iron had already been moved to the scrapyard.

Siwoo Lee roughly cleaned up the scrap metal and turned off the excavator and came down.

“Why are you awake already? Go in and sleep.”

“Aren’t you leaving too early? Get some more rest… … .”

“We have guests arriving early, so we have to open at 7 o’clock.”

“It seems that the boss doesn’t even have a hangover.”

“You only drank one bottle of each yesterday. Do you have any memories of drinking too much to get a hangover? Go take a rest and come out at 8:50.”

Forcing Moon Kwang-Woon into the room, Si-Woo Lee began his basic routine.

Organize your day’s work in the office, and open the junkyard door.

By the time I did that, it was 7:30.

Workers constructing the fence entered the yard.

Now that the construction of one side has been completed, it is time to install the other side.

“You’re leaving early today, too, sir.”

“If you leave the door open early, customers won’t feel uncomfortable. You said you were going to build the other side of the wall today, didn’t you?”

The construction manager nodded.

The front and back parts were the last to be done.

First of all, it was planned to build the walls on either side.

“After demolishing it today and setting up the skeleton to match the height, it seems like a whole day will pass.”

“It doesn’t matter how long it takes, so just make it strong. Can I get you a cup of coffee?”

“yes. If you give it to me, I will be grateful.”

A cup of coffee to start the day.

Siwoo Lee, who had a conversation with the manager over coffee, relaxed his aching body.

Demolition began to construct the wall, and Si-woo Lee went into the office looking at the scene.

“Hmm, how did the amount of scrap metal come in so low?”

The amount of goods floating on the site had drastically decreased.

At the same time, the amount of scrap metal brought by walkers was gradually decreasing.

Siwoo Lee cleared his books and went out.

peaceful yard.

Of course, it was quite noisy because of the wall construction, but it was very peaceful compared to the intense month.

‘If today goes by without a big deal… … .’

Siwoo Lee wanted today to go on as usual, without any other variables.

No one was hurt, and everyone left work with a smile.

I was expecting such a nice day.

Si-woo Lee, who suddenly checked the time, called somewhere.

[Yes, Mr. Lee.]

“Are you dispatching cars today?”

[Absolutely. The car will probably arrive around 9 o’clock.]

“thank you.”

[I have to give thanks. Just thank you for the clean stuff. Oh, and the price of aluminum went up this week. Since 100 won has risen, the unit price seems to be based on 1,900 won.]

“All right. Then I will wait for you.”

I finished cleaning up the non-ferrous metal yesterday, so I had to hand it over today.

The moment Kang Pil-joong started the business, he was going to start holding out in earnest.

‘This situation shouldn’t last too long… … .’

A major bad news broke out at a time when we needed to strengthen our finances, so we were not alone in our worries.

Although he reassured the employees by telling them to take a break, Si-woo Lee, the president of the company, had no choice but to ride.

However, it was not possible to use Future Poetry once a week.

Mirae City, which informs you of changes in scrap metal prices once a month.

It was useful, but there were a lot of things that were disappointing in the current state.

‘But I can’t quickly raise the level of Future City… I’ll have to raise the scrap metal generation to level 3 soon… That way, the future level will also rise… … .’

The ability to create only scrap metal.

Unfortunately, it did not produce non-ferrous metal.

Only the words “Cannot be created” come out along with the words that the level is insufficient.

Shi-woo Lee sighed deeply and went back to the office.

We only need to properly receive guests who come today.

So I thought I would finish the administrative work before the employees go to work.

The employees went to work one by one, and when the time came, Moon Kwang-Woon quickly jumped out and changed into work clothes.

Kang Pil-joong looked at Moon Kwang-woon in the yard first and tilted his head.

“You came early, Kwangwoon.”

“Chief, are you here? I slept here yesterday. Have a drink with the boss.”

“okay? Then you don’t have to worry.”

He was worried that Moon Kwang-woon might have lost his temper because of yesterday’s scolding.

I was not alone in thinking about how to relieve my mood today, but when I said that I had a drink with Siwoo Lee yesterday, it felt like my worries melted away.

“yes! I will study hard today!”

“okay. I was scolded yesterday, should I do it right today? Don’t make the same mistake.”

“Yes, boss!”

Kang Pil-joong, who sent a message to Moon Kwang-woon, went straight to the office and greeted Lee Si-woo.

“I went to work, boss.”

“Did you spend 500,000 won yesterday?”

“Ah, haha… That’s because Manager Park and Assistant Manager Choi also ate together… … .”

Kang Pil-joong made an excuse with a shy expression.

Because this little boss was looking at him with a playful expression.

Anyway, he offered to return the corporate card, but Si-Woo Lee shook his head and did not accept it.

“Have it. When you do business later, there will be things to write about. However, do not use it personally. Oh, and be sure to bring your receipt.”

“all right.”

The corporate card was a debit card linked to a corporate account.

A card that even the president, Siwoo Lee, cannot use recklessly.

It should only be used for business purposes.

“Never lose your corporate card. It takes time to reissue, but the process is complicated.”

“Yes, I will be careful.”

“Now that this knight has arrived, and the fence in the scrapyard has been completed, you need to move slowly, right?”

“Can’t we start moving tomorrow? I want to stay in the yard until today.”

“Do what you feel comfortable with. And help this driver to adapt.”

* * *

Not long after, Park Tae-moon, Choi Moon-sik, and Lee Jun entered the yard together.

Seeing Moon Kwang-woon arriving early in the morning, Park Tae-moon laughed.

“Are you here early?”

“I slept here yesterday, boss.”

“here?”

“yes. I drank with the boss and slept here.”

“okay? i get it.”

When all the staff went to work, Siwoo Lee checked the time.

‘I think it’s time to come from The S… … .’

The car arrives around 9am.

However, after 10 o’clock after all the employees went to work, the vehicle did not come in.

Si-woo Lee tried to wait a little longer, and then called Kim In-sik again.

[Ah, President!]

“The car hasn’t arrived yet.”

[sorry. Contacting me is… I couldn’t ask for your understanding because I had an urgent business.]

“Looks like something happened.”

[Whoa, that’s… I was in a hurry to get to the hospital after the forklift had an accident, so I couldn’t contact you.]

“Ah, that… Are you okay with the knight?”

[Fortunately, he wasn’t seriously injured, but he said his arm was fractured.]

“Then I won’t be able to come in today.”

[sorry. The dispatch will be rescheduled as soon as possible.]

“no. Even if the representative is not in a good mood, you can dispatch the train again after processing to some extent. You don’t have to take it out so quickly.”

[Thanks for your understanding.]

Thank you for answering the call like this.

Accidents like this have happened, who knows where to call?

When Siwoo Lee hung up the phone, Piljung Kang opened the office door and entered.

“Didn’t the S say dispatch today?”

Even if not, Si-woo Lee told Kang Pil-joong that the train was dispatched yesterday.

So, as the car hasn’t arrived yet, he also had a question and wanted to ask Siwoo Lee.

“They said there was an accident.”

When I explained the situation to Kim In-seok, Kang Pil-joong nodded as if he understood.

“Then how about we go to The S? I want to clean up the non-ferrous metal while cleaning the yard.”

“Hmm, I’ll ask the CEO of The S first.”

“Yes, sir.”

When Si-woo Lee called right away and said that he would go in directly, In-sik Kim was very welcome and expressed his gratitude.

[Then I will raise the unit price by 50 won. Sorry for making you troublesome.]

“no. We have a situation that needs to be sorted out quickly. Now that we are stocking up on things, we will start with The S as soon as it is finished.”

[Yes, it is.]

Unlike giving items at the junkyard, if you bring your own items, you will be charged an extra 10 won per unit.

This was a payment for shipping.

Lee Jun, the current clipper, didn’t have much to do in the yard.

So, when I have time like now, Siwoo Lee thought that it wouldn’t be a bad idea to send him to The S in addition to checking his skills.

“This driver, please give me an aluminum loader. I think I will have to go directly to The S.”

At Lee Si-woo’s instructions, Lee Joon did not help Moon Kwang-woon’s work, but nodded his head.

Then he released his hand and started the tong truck.

Then, as Kang Pil-jung approached, Lee Joon got out of the car.

“You’re going with me, so I’ll tell you the location.”

“Yes, Manager Kang.”

“It’s been a while since I’ve done this, are you okay?”

“Even if it rots, it’s Junchi, it’s something I’ve been doing for nearly 8 years, but I wouldn’t have gotten dull if I only took a break for half a year. Whoops.”

After about 10 minutes, I put the car on the weighbridge.

Although Gyegeun will do it one more time at The S, I still had to record the tolerance and gross weight just in case.

When I got out of the tolerance check, I moved the car to the place where Lee Jun worked on aluminum.

After that, I got on the tongs, warmed up for about 10 minutes, and started loading cars.

“It sure looks like you’ve been doing this for a long time.”

“He is a man who faithfully does the work entrusted to him. You can trust me, sir.”

“I am glad that a good driver came in. I can leave the job to you with peace of mind.”

A person with a solid foundation.

It was enough to check his driving skills now, but he seemed to know it even if he hadn’t seen it.

Just by looking at the way he cares for his car, you can tell that he is someone you can trust and trust.

Occasionally, knights without basic skills moved their tongs without warming up.

Of course, in the summer these habits were not so important, but the problem was in the winter.

The hydraulic oil that kept the tongs running in the winter often freezes.

“Do you know where The S is?”

“Yeah, I know. I’ve been there a few times with Director Jin.”

About an hour later, Lee Joon loaded all the aluminum into the car and folded the tongs.

“Then I will go.”

“Don’t rush, go slowly.”
