[Episode 52] Unlocking new abilities

Kang Pil-joong has some good news.

The first thing that was stolen was that DS had taken it back.

Si-woo Lee looked at Kang Pil-joong, who was excited, and smiled faintly.

“You are very refreshing.”

“The president should have seen the expression of the person named Director Choi from DS. How refreshing the expression of chewing poop was.”

“I’m happy though. Through my thoughts.”

“It was the right decision to serve the waste business. You will have to look at profitability, but you will never see a loss.”

“It would be. Maybe you can get a bigger profit than scrap metal.”

The goods to be sent to the shredding plant and the unit cost of disposing of construction waste were not so expensive.

The shredder can be processed at a unit price of 160 won per kg.

And the waste cement could be disposed of with a dump truck at about 150,000 won per car.

Even if you deal with it at 250 million won, you can see a significant profit.

While preparing for the license, Si-Woo Lee constantly studied matters related to waste.

‘The knowledge that can be gained by studying is limited. Now it’s my turn to experience it while playing in the field.’

With the news brought by Kang Pil-joong, there was one more thing to be happy about.

It was said that the generation of scrap metal would reach level 5 by tomorrow.

There was a lot of anticipation as to what new abilities would be created, whether it was a non-ferrous ability, as expected by Lee Si-woo, or a completely new ability.

‘It’s been about 8 months, but I’m still under pressure from the money I enjoy.’

Taxes, labor costs, and oil prices were a huge burden.

It seemed to understand why people in business are having a hard time.

As the scale of the business grew, the monthly maintenance cost also increased.

“You said you were going to bring me a bullet. Will Manager Kang come over? I can go to the site with this driver and bring scrap metal.”

It was just the right time to remove the scrap metal from the site.

It was painful for DS, who had to bring scrap metal.

But it was just the beginning.

“yes. I will go.”

It cost 100 million won to purchase a 45-ton arm roll car, and a used 5-ton arm roll car cost 60 million won.

And it cost 200 million to buy a new forklift.

The amount of basic funds to acquire the license alone was worth 500 million won.

However, in the case of the vehicle, it did not cost a lot of money right away because it was purchased with capital.

Kang Pil-joong picked up the car key to go to the place where he parked the car.

Only cars were parked in Nuri’s yard, and the remaining large vehicles were parked on the newly acquired land.

* * *

From the moment it started running the waste business, Nuri’s competitiveness increased.

Basically, the construction site was inseparable from waste.

A company with a formal license was needed, but there were very few companies that carried out waste transport business in this area.

Wonkwang was about an hour and a half away from here.

However, they did not bring the field items in the first place.

There was a long distance between shreddingable items and waste from construction sites.

People had no choice but to trade with a waste company that was quite a distance away with tears in their eyes.

However, the appearance of Nuri gave breath to the construction site.

There was only one site that closed the deal on the first day.

However, the next day, as they knew how, the wardens from the site who were doing the existing business rushed in.

Kang Pil-jung’s phone was on fire, and Lee Si-woo welcomed the directors who came to the yard.

“Instead of handing over the scrap metal, I came here because the waste could be disposed of cheaply.”

“Even if you don’t, the waste can be disposed of. However, if you trade with scrap metal, we can reduce the unit cost of waste, sir.”

Siwoo Lee explained to the directors without losing his smile.

This was possible because there are not many waste companies in the area where Nuri is located.

If it had been in another area, there would have been no need for the wardens to come and listen.

To be honest, there are a lot of companies with waste transport and collection licenses in different regions.

“I heard that you can handle it for 2.5 million won per car, is that true?”

“you’re right.”

“Then our site will also provide scrap metal to the boss, so I would like you to dispose of the waste.”

“We thank you.”

In addition to the sites stolen by DS, they also visited sites where they did not trade.

Perhaps, if the waste business were properly activated, the amount of scrap metal would increase significantly.

‘When the water comes in, you have to row.’

Si-woo Lee, who had been busy in the morning due to the directors who came in the morning, breathed a sigh of relief and left the office.

“You’re out of your mind today, boss.”

Moon Kwang-woon finished his work and was sitting in front of the office taking a break.

“By the way, when are you going back to Myeongsan?”

“why? Would you feel uncomfortable if I stayed here longer?”

“No way. But Myeongsan pays your salary.”

“I heard from my father yesterday. You said it was decided that Nuri would pay half of my salary together?”

Myeongsan could not afford to pay all of Moon Kwang-woon’s salary as an employee of Nuri.

Because I thought that it was not polite to Moon Kwang-woon.

Si-woo Lee paid an additional 300,000 to 400,000 won to Moon Kwang-woon every month.

And from this month, after consulting with Moon Jae-shin, Nuri decided to pay half of her monthly salary.

“From this month on, you will be responsible for a portion of your salary. Instead, I can’t give them the additional incentives I’ve been given before.”

“The salary I get now is enough. What can I do with more money?”

“Still, you should get a salary that is commensurate with your abilities. You can be greedy when it comes to salary.”

Moon Jae-shin originally planned to entrust Moon Kwang-woon to Nuri for about two months.

However, Moon Kwang-woon refused to come back, saying he still has more to learn.

Moon Jae-shin willingly allowed Moon Kwang-woon to actively appeal his claims.

“is that so?”

“If you can afford it, it’s natural to claim that much salary.”

“By the way, now that the waste business is underway, it must be getting busier… Isn’t it good for me to be here?”

“Of course. There is nothing more reassuring if you are in the yard.”

“I’m glad it was helpful. Until I go to the military, I want to stay in Nuri. A warrant has been issued, but I want to delay it for another year or so.”

“Hmm, that wouldn’t be a very good choice… I’m going to have to go anyway, so I’d rather go quickly, right?”

Siwoo Lee, who was having a frivolous conversation, put his hand on Moon Kwangwoon’s head.

“Don’t overdo it and work. As you said, I will be busy now.”

“Yes, sir.”

Leaving behind Moon Kwang-woon taking a break, Lee Si-woo, who came back to the office, slowly read the new abilities.

―――――――――――――――

As expected, the following abilities were related to non-ferrous metals.

And one more unexpected ability was unlocked.

That was the ability to ‘classify’.

I couldn’t figure out how to use it, but Siwoo Lee could intuitively know what kind of ability it was.

‘I think it means that you can classify the weight and the light weight mixed with the light weight… Could it be possible to classify scrap and non-ferrous materials from waste?’

Due to the sudden increase in ability, Si-woo Lee pondered for a long time.

Even though I knew what kind of ability it was, I couldn’t figure out how to apply it.

There was no level marked for the ability to classify.

That means it’s an undevelopable ability.

I had to figure out how to use it properly.

Tick-tock-

Siwoo Lee, who was tapping the desk with his finger, stretched out.

‘The number of cycles that can raise the level of scrap metal generation is increasing. If you don’t do the math properly, you might break your head.’

I thought it would be nice to have my skills increased.

But it wasn’t as good.

It will become more complex and the number of things to be calculated will increase.

Not only that, but it might make it more difficult to avoid the eyes of employees and use their abilities.

* * *

While Lee Si-woo was having a peaceful time, Choi Eun-seok bowed his head like a criminal.

In one day, six sites were taken over by Nuri.

In the meantime, DS has invested a significant amount of money to take over the area where Nuri is active.

bang!

Han Kang-ho blushed as he hit the desk when he heard that he had lost his business partner.

“What the hell did Director Choi do?”

“sorry. I never even dreamed that Nuri would be thinking of a waste business.”

Choi Eun-seok lowered his head and bit his lip strongly.

They couldn’t fight back despite DS’s activities they enjoyed over the past three months.

Choi Eun-seok naturally thought that Nuri gave up without even fighting.

“Find a way right now!”

Currently, DS could not even get into the waste business.

A company that had already reached the end of the scrap metal could not get involved in other businesses.

Even if they brought scrap metal with the maximum amount of money, it was impossible to divert the funds elsewhere in the yard.

‘damn… I never foreseen that the waste would be put together. The reason I was crouching for three months was to prepare a license… … .’

Nuri Recycling was a no-frills company.

There was no money to go up to the grand prize, and the support base was insufficient.

Unsurprisingly, Eun-seok Choi was vigilant because he was sure that he would not be able to compete with DS.

The cost of forgetting that a company that can change its business at any time enjoys it was quite painful, although it was mediocre.

“We should move along with one collection and transport company.”

“Find out now. I can’t give up scrap metal from that area!”

The area where Nuri is located was a bonanza, where 100 tons of scrap metal was produced per month.

It makes no sense to give up such an area, and Han Kang-ho’s pride also played a big role.

“Okay, boss.”

“Imagine that all the scrap metal from that area flows to Myeongsan. If that happens, we will not be able to jump over Mt. Yeongyeong, Director Choi.”

“I know. We will take it back by all means.”

“Find a suitable waste company and report the budget. It doesn’t matter how much it costs, so find a company to work with us.”

Kang-ho Han realized that Si-woo Lee was not simply young.

As a young man, the change of thinking was different from others.

‘This time, we got one right hit, but it’s not because we don’t have a way.’

Registering a collection and transport license cost more time than money.

I couldn’t catch up with Nuri right now.

However, Choi Eun-seok was able to find a way to take the share from Myeong-san the way Nuri did.

“I showed that if we designate one waste company and do business together, we can bring in much more scrap metal than we do now. We just have to do the same.”

“It hurts my pride, but I learned a good way. Not bad.”

“If you wait a little bit, we will find a company as soon as possible.”

But he didn’t know.

The fact that merchants who make money from scrap metal are more dishonorable and dirty than those who make money from scrap metal.

And I didn’t even know that waste companies didn’t cooperate.

* * *

Moon Jae-shin, the representative of Myeongsan, was breathing a sigh of relief.

Until a few months ago, I was pushed to the point where I had to get a loan from the bank and cycle the money.

However, as the price of scrap metal suddenly rose, his burden decreased sharply.

Even after paying off all the borrowed money, he made a huge profit.

Before the unit price rose, the amount of scrap metal stored in the three yards exceeded 5,000 tons.

And even 1,000 tons of scrap metal brought from Nuri was sent to the ironworks.

“CEO, it seems that Nuri is looking for lost customers one by one.”

“already? It’s only been less than a week since you started the waste business?”

“Doesn’t that mean that CEO Lee Si-woo’s skills are great?”

Moon Jae-shin smiled faintly at the news that DS was coming to the stolen sites one by one.

Siwoo Lee was satisfied with the place and did not want to stay.

Lee Si-woo’s resourceful Moon Jae-shin, who somehow creates a new way to grow his business, felt great.

“We should give back to Nuri as much as we received help. Director Jean.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Try to start a business with a factory that does business with us. And throw all the waste into Nuri. It wouldn’t be bad to move with Manager Kang.”

“All right.”

I didn’t mean to give back what I had been helped.

‘I have to give back more than that.’

Moon Jae-shin thought that now could be because he had endured a month in Nuri.

“The waste business will bring new opportunities to us and Nuri. When the DS hits and rises, it will be a number that can widen the gap further.”

“you’re right. If we do waste sales and scrap metal sales together, synergy will come back.”

“Is this so that we can never give up Nuri now?”

“Well, did you not have any intention of ending your relationship with Nuri in the first place?”

It was the words of Jun-sik Jin.

Under any circumstances, Moon Jae-shin had no intention of severing his relationship with Nuri.

“Because CEO Lee showed me the value of Nouri, we have to go to the end with Nouri.”
