The Junk Dealer Makes Good Money

[Episode 191] Who gives orders to whom?

Time passes like light.

So far, Nuri Recycling has been doing various things.

None of it was easy.

If there were existing data, there would have been no need to go through so much trial and error.

All were new challenges.

Siwoo Lee had an ambitious goal.

Growth of Nuri Recycling?

That’s natural.

If you run towards your goal, one day, your enjoyment will become even greater.

And even now, even though it has not yet reached half its goal, the scale of Nuri is growing day by day.

After the great success of the Yongin Incinerator, it was even listed as a nuisance.

Two years have passed since then.

A quiet beach in Gangwon-do.

A man standing gazing at the rough waves smiled faintly.

And behind the man was a waste disposal building whose image had been hardened as an abomination facility.

“What are you doing here, Chairman?”

“I am just looking at the sea.”

“You seem to have a lot of trouble.”

Mu-yeol Lee, a man in a black suit who bowed his head politely, gave a faint smile.

Two years have passed since the Yongin Incinerator opened.

How has the waste industry changed over the years?

As green energy has taken root in Korea, interest in waste has increased significantly in Korea.

It also decided to coexist with Germany and its policies on waste provisions, and even made an agreement.

It is thanks to the existence of Nuri that made all of this possible.

“We barely have the infrastructure to deal with marine debris. Nuri shredding plants have been established all over Korea. Building ten shredders in just two years would be great, wouldn’t it?”

“With the president, we have accomplished something that no one else has been able to do. What do you like so much about?”

There were only a couple of things that bothered me.

Even after shredding plants have been established all over the country, the final incineration plant is too far away.

The operation of the Suwon incinerator has just begun.

Compared to a crusher, an incinerator takes a lot of money and time to build.

“It’s an infrastructure problem.”

“Don’t you know that it will take time? It will take at least ten years, Chairman.”

“Because a waste-fired power plant cannot be built overnight. But I am also concerned that the government has been making strange requests.”

“It’s an absurd request. No, are you going to import waste in a land that can’t even digest domestic waste?”

The remarkable achievements of Nuri encouraged the government.

Of course, he knew that without the state, there would be no business.

But the government’s demands from Nuri were absurd.

Importing waste and nothing else?

It didn’t make sense for a developed country to make such a decision, not a developing country.

“There are too many thieves who are destroying the country. They only seem to be using Nuri for their own benefit.”

“They are really bad people. We need to figure out a way to prioritize landfill waste.”

Importing waste is never permitted.

This is a decision I have made as a citizen of the Republic of Korea.

Lee Si-woo flatly refused the government’s request.

I don’t want to get involved in ruining the country.

The government is putting pressure on Lee Si-woo’s decision every day.

Those who want to make sure that waste imports are made by any means and methods.

“I need to increase the size of Nuri faster. The government also needs to have an uncontrollable influence.”

“What are you going to do?”

“Prepare for the press conference. Even if there is a deal with the government, the import of waste must be stopped unconditionally. And tell the prince group and the Daehan group about this.”

“President… … .”

“The government may be coveting the technology of waste-fired power generation. The government doesn’t know that it’s a good way to replace nuclear power plants. The purpose is to tame Nuri.”

Furthermore, what the government wanted was simple.

The technology to build a waste-fired power plant.

You can never pass this up.

The government is now being overly greedy, and I don’t know what kind of anger that greed will bring.

“Notify cities other than Yongin and Suwon that you will not accept waste. There is no need to be led by the will of the government.”

“I will.”

It would be a lie if I said it wasn’t a concern, but Lee Mu-yeol believed his judgment.

Because there was nothing wrong with that.

“And tell the Boseong side that it is necessary to protect the waste-fired power plant technology more thoroughly.”

“I will deliver it right away.”

The influence Nuri has already exerted has gone beyond what the government can do.

why?

First of all, it was not enough to dispose of wastes throughout Gyeonggi-do, and I enjoyed being able to process some of the wastes of Incheon and Seoul.

The moment Nuri does not receive waste, problems inevitably arise in each city.

And the reprimand for that matter will be completely poured out on the government.

‘I’ve been running so far with the determination to make sure no one ignores Nuri. If it’s helpful for Nuri’s growth, don’t even think of it as drawing.’

Even if the government did not step in in the first place, Green Energy would have entered Korea in partnership with Nuri.

Because Lee Young-geun made it that way.

But now the government is mistaken.

He said that it was possible with the help of the government that Nuri received the technology of green energy.

“If there are protests from other cities, please ignore them all.”

“I will pass it on to all employees as an in-house notice.”

Siwoo Lee removed his gaze from the waves and turned around calmly.

so as not to make fun of Nuri.

There is a need to show that the government can tame the government, not the government.

It was a light step, but the atmosphere was heavy.

Lee Mu-yeol carefully followed behind Lee Si-woo, who was walking forward.

It is a mountain beyond a mountain.

When I jumped over The-K, DS came out.

Again, when I jumped over the DS, Kang Eung-ryong appeared.

It surpassed Kang Eung-ryong and surpassed Daehan.

Now it was time to move beyond the government.

“I do not lose to anyone who enjoys it.”

Lee Mu-yeol nodded slightly at Si-woo Lee’s determined voice, who muttered in a small voice.

I do not bow my head to the strong who enjoys it.

On the contrary, I can bow my head to the weak.

That was the Nuri created by Siwoo Lee.

* * *

“It seems that Korea is worth living. If you see me thinking in a weird way, Haje.”

“… It is a problem in itself to deliver such a ridiculous request to Chairman Lee Si-woo. It’s not even eight years, and the government can’t give orders to businesses, old man.”

Lee Young-geun, the representative of Green Energy’s Korean branch, laughed as if it was ridiculous.

And the expression of In-jae sitting in front of him also hardened.

“If other companies don’t know, you shouldn’t make such a request to Nuri. I saved him from the water at the most, but he asked me to give him a bag too.”

“You will probably hit the ground and regret it. Chairman Lee Si-woo will not stand still.”

“If this is the president, I will take decisive action. You, too, should watch closely what the president is doing.”

Inha-je was like a disciple of Lee Young-geun.

He has been helping Lee Young-geun since his days at Green Energy in Germany.

“yes. I will do that, old man.”

Siwoo Lee is not stupid.

Beyond being smart, its qualities are unimaginable.

When a problem arises, it is amazing to come up with an appropriate solution.

And, as expected by Young-geun Lee, Si-woo Lee didn’t seem to have any intention of passing this on.

“Nuri’s technology is the technology of green energy. No country has ever wanted to covet technology. Do you know why?”

“Environmental issues are a problem in any country. There is no need to compete with a company that can solve the problem.”

“I saw it right. But there are other reasons. Environmental companies can make the country stumble.”

What if garbage is not disposed of and accumulates?

It makes a huge wave.

It is now the number one company in the overwhelming industry.

Korean conglomerates?

To be honest, even large corporations have to say sorry to Nuri.

As soon as the factory starts up, waste is produced.

A large company has appeared that can dispose of the waste.

The moment Nuri does not receive their goods, they are in a position to process them at a high price.

The existence of Nuri was absolutely necessary for companies that had to reduce their expenses even at one point.

“Nowhere else will you be able to press the nuri. Chairman Lee is a genius recognized by me, Young-geun Lee.”

“I agree with the old man.”

“Haje-ya, if you go back to being a prince, never bump into Nuri. Now Chairman Lee Si-woo has wings. No man can catch a bird that soars high in the sky.”

“I will never pretend to be with Chairman Lee Si-woo. I’m not that stupid, old man.”

It’s not just two years.

It has grown rapidly thanks to the Yongin incineration plant as a stepping stone.

It is a company with annual sales of 50 trillion won and operating profit of 20 trillion won.

The number of employees alone has now surpassed 100,000 units.

While moving with Nuri, Inha-je felt something deeply.

Lee Si-woo is a person who should never be turned back.

‘It’s not that we don’t know the end of those who became Siwoo’s enemies.’

And above all, there was no way the Insuin could helplessly watch the situation.

Insu-in considers Si-woo Lee to be his real son and cherishes him.

“Ugh, I must come and meet President Shin Ae-ra after a long time.”

“Are you going to Gangdong again? Do you visit once a week? … .”

“I heard you go every two days.”

“that… … .”

“Don’t be nagging at the fact that it’s a pity that you can only visit once a week.”

It has been three years since Si-woo Lee and Ae-ra Shin have been married.

The news of the second generation, which had not been heard before, has recently been heard.

The news that Shin Ae-ra was pregnant was not the only one who was happy.

In the case of Insu-in, she went into the mansion of Si-woo Lee and Ae-ra Shin.

There aren’t just one or two things you need to take care of.

“I heard that my nephew is born, how can I stay still?”

“I will think of the future child as my grandchild. This is good news after 3 years. I should go check Ae-ra Shin’s health from time to time.”

Not sometimes, but often.

Currently, Shin Ae-ra is still working as the president of the company.

No matter how many people tried to stop her, she couldn’t break her stubbornness.

And Si-woo Lee also respected Shin Ae-ra.

There were many people who came to her several times a day worried about her health.

“I’ll go see you, and you too, go back to the Suwon incinerator.”

Seeing Lee Young-geun rushing out of the representative room, Inha-je showed a pleasant smile.

Perhaps the child who will be the child of Si-woo Lee and Ae-ra Shin will be born with great fortune.

When I was born, my father was Lee Si-woo and my mother was Shin-ae.

And my grandmother was the one who took over.

‘I’m sure it’s too early to use the word diamond spoon.’

* * *

As soon as she announced the news of her pregnancy, Shin Ae-ra had to spend a tiring schedule because of the guests who came once a day.

But she wasn’t stressed at all.

It means that there are a lot of people who will love the child who will be born in the future.

“grandfather.”

Today, Injehoo was sitting in the Gangdong president’s office and drinking tea.

“Are you okay? Morning sickness?”

“Everything is still fine. It’s been 10 weeks now.”

“Isn’t it time to stop working and take care of yourself?”

“There are people who work even when they are full.”

“that… … .”

At the good news, Injehoo was more happy than Insuin.

A friend’s great-grandson is born.

It was even more heartbreaking because it was a friend who passed away.

“If you need anything, just tell me. I will do it all.”

“My aunt is already doing everything at home. You can’t even clean it?”

“Yeah, you have to do that. Wasn’t he the one who came to visit me after 3 years?”

The real Injehu was ready to do anything.

When I think of the child to be born in the future, a smile never leaves my lips.

“I’m worried about how much love this child will grow up with.”

The more love you get, the more cocky you become.

It also has a great influence on the formation of personality.

Lee Si-woo and Shin Ae-ra hope that their future children will grow up healthy and happy.

However, I wanted to lead a different life from other chaebols.

“No one else, but you and Chairman Lee’s children. Don’t worry, I’ll grow up better than any other child.”
