The Junk Dealer Makes Good Money

[Episode 60] I can see that the system is being established

At the same time as Jin Eun-soo joined, manpower was being recruited rapidly.

One forklift driver, two armroll truck drivers, and even the staff working in the yard were all selected.

Even for Jin Eun-soo and Lee Seok-joon, who will be responsible for the headquarters, the recruitment of manpower had to be carried out quickly.

“Now we have to wait for the new staff to take their seats, Mr. Kang.”

“It’s a shredding plant, and with Manager Choi, you will be able to settle in without too much trouble. The problem is headquarters… … .”

“I believe this manager will do well. And director Jin is also there, right?”

From now on, maintenance was important.

It was necessary to put more importance on holding the current customer rather than expanding the customer.

“Jin’s personality seems to be quite meticulous.”

“Because he has been in charge of accounting for 15 years. If even one amount is wrong, it is accounting work that comes back with huge damage.”

“you’re right. Oh, and by the way, I got a call from Director Jin of Myeongsan.”

“What did you say?”

“I asked him why he was carrying scrap metal… I said I didn’t know either.”

Recently, I’ve been busy with work at the shredding plant, so I hardly ever met people from Myeongsan.

The reason Siwoo Lee delayed the shipment of scrap was due to the range of unit price fluctuations.

‘After a month, the unit price suddenly rises by 30 won. Even if the waste is making a lot of money, there is no need to change the way it was operated.’

Now the price of scrap metal was going down.

Just this week, 20 won has gone down.

However, from next week, scrap metal prices are expected to recover and reach a peak in a month.

“I will meet Director Jin. It’s nothing new.”

“Okay, sir.”

As the relationship with DS improved, there were almost no companies that wanted to touch Nuri.

There was, however, one company that stood out to me.

‘Because there are rumors that he is slowly working under the Wonkwang.’

Wonkwang’s behavior was funny.

The price of waste sent to the incinerator was 220 won per KG.

However, the price of waste received from ore was 200 won.

‘It was Won Kwang that led to a composition that didn’t make sense in the first place.’

It was nonsense to maintain a unit price that was 10 won lower than that of an incinerator, even if the facility was equipped.

The price difference between incineration and shredding was up to 50 won.

Even though one hurdle has been passed, another hurdle is coming.

As the business grew, the number of enemies also increased.

‘It would be inconvenient for Wonkwang to be watching us.’

A company that disposed of waste that even appeared in the news. Naturally, the city had no choice but to take an interest in Nuri.

After all, I’ve been having trouble lately with the waste that other vendors have illegally piled up.

Siwoo Lee has been to Mt. Myeong for a long time.

“Are you here, Mr. Lee?”

“Are you the representative?”

“You are in the office.”

Lee Si-woo nodded at Jin Jun-sik’s words and entered the office.

Moon Jae-shin was waiting for him because I had contacted him in advance that he would visit.

“It’s been a long time, Mr. Lee.”

“I have been busy with work, so I haven’t been able to see you.”

“Sit down.”

Si-woo Lee sat across from me and immediately brought up the main point.

“Director Jin asked why we don’t ship scrap metal.”

“You mean Director Jin?”

Moon Jae-shin didn’t seem to know.

It seemed that Jin Jun-sik acted arbitrarily.

But it wasn’t that surprising.

Nouri always stocked up scrap metal when the price of scrap fell, but the shredding plant has been doing well lately.

So, I thought I’d try this once in a while.

“We plan to operate in the same way as Nouri has been doing. We never hand it over to other companies, sir.”

“I believe in this representative. Director Jin has done something useless. Sorry to bother you.”

“no. It’s something to be concerned about. Even though the unit price has not dropped sharply recently, we are delaying the shipment.”

“Um, are you expecting the price of scrap metal to soar?”

“It’s just my feeling. However, in this state, it is unlikely that it will fall further, so we are stocking it up.”

“Now that we are able to circulate money with the waste we enjoy, we know we don’t have to pull out scrap as quickly as we used to.”

Moon Jae-shin completely trusted Lee Si-woo’s senses.

Even so, Myeongsan has been piling up scrap metal again since Nuri stopped shipping scrap metal.

“When do you plan to ship?”

“I’m going to wait a month or so.”

“okay.”

“Oh, and I would like to return a portion of the amount Myeongsan invested. If you cut the bill for only about 110 million won, I think we can handle it right away.”

“Are you talking already?”

It had been less than three months since the investment.

Even so, Moon Jae-shin put on a surprised expression when he said that he would return some of it.

“I just want to return the investment as quickly as possible to Myungsan and The S, who trusted me and invested in me. And I want you to think of 100 million won as the principal, and 10 million won as a distribution for investment.”

Give back more than you received.

That was Siwoo’s way.

“no. If only I could get my money back… … .”

“Don’t do that, I want you to accept it. Thanks to Myeongsan and The S, the shredding plant was established without trouble. I am not that kind of person who does not know grace.”

Moon Jae-shin shook his head strongly when he said that he would return 10 million won as a three-month dividend.

However, due to Si-woo Lee’s continued request, he was forced to receive a dividend of 10 million won.

“You don’t have to worry about scrap metal. Again, all of Nuri’s scrap metal will be shipped from the famous mountain.”

“All right. First of all, Director Jin seems to have acted like that because he was worried, so I hope you will move on.”

“Absolutely.”

Ishiu got up from his seat.

Despite Jin Jun-sik’s dissatisfaction with something, Lee Si-woo did not lose his smile.

* * *

“What are you doing now? Director Jin!”

When Lee Si-woo left, Moon Jae-shin shouted loudly.

“It seems that the shredding plant is doing well, so it seems that the scrap metal is neglected. Although the unit price has dropped, it’s not enough to stop shipping… … .”

“Didn’t you see how Nuri operates? It’s nothing new, but why are you overreacting?”

“that… … .”

“why? Are you worried that Nouri will have a different heart as she grows up?”

“Actually, I wonder if it is right to trust Nouri and go.”

“ha… Director Jin, CEO Lee said that he would return the investment. I was just saying that I would pay dividends as well as that.”

“yes?”

“I know what Jin’s concerns are, but we don’t need to be impatient in the first place. There is no need to break trust on our side first.”

Moon Jae-shin, who had warned Jin Jun-shik, looked at him.

Because I can never condone rude behavior toward Siwoo Lee.

“sorry.”

“Don’t be convinced until Nuri betrays us first.”

“Yes, sir.”

“We must go with Nouri unconditionally. Keep that in mind too.”

* * *

When he made the same proposal as Moon Jae-shin to Kim In-sik, he more fiercely opposed Lee Si-woo’s proposal.

“It was not an investment I decided to pay a dividend. Now, The S is also benefiting greatly from Nuri treating waste instead of ore.”

“I want you to accept it.”

“Are you going to return 100 million won and 10 million won as dividends? Aren’t you going to stop paying dividends this time?”

“that… … .”

“The S will not receive dividends. To be honest, Myeongsan helped Nuri a lot, but The S didn’t help Nuri that much.”

What Kim In-sik said was true.

There was absolutely no denying that I was able to climb to this place because of the famous mountain.

The S was making a profit with non-ferrous metals from Nuri.

Unlike before, the amount of non-ferrous metal suddenly increased.

In addition, as Nuri took care of the waste instead, the number of customers of The S was increasing.

“Still, I want you to accept it.”

“CEO.”

“This is something Myeongsan also agreed to. We also invested in The S, so we should be treated equally.”

“Well… Then I’ll take it this time. Instead, I would like you to reduce the dividend from next time.”

“The dividend will go as it is.”

“I got a part of the principal back, but I can’t get an equal dividend. If Nuri continues to pay dividends, it is possible to recover all of the investment.”

“that… … .”

It wasn’t a threat.

It was just taking care of Lee Shi-woo.

I knew there was no malice, but I wanted to do something in return.

“I know the CEO’s feelings, but there are things that we have to keep in mind. So you do it.”

“All right.”

“I will process the bill today.”

The S was growing enough to not have to pay dividends.

I knew that it was possible because Nouri supported me from behind.

Lee Si-woo, who came to the headquarters after meeting Kim In-sik, came into the office.

“Are you here, sir?”

“Yes, Director Jin. You will receive a bill from Myungsan and The S. Please deal with that first.”

“A bill?”

“It’s a statement of return on investment and dividends.”

“Oh okay.”

“I want to pay off my debt as quickly as possible.”

Over the past three months, the profits from the waste business have grown exponentially.

Because it was a business of taking money and giving money to a cement company.

It was not a business that paid money like scrap metal.

As a result, it was natural to see a huge difference in net profit.

Scrap was also making a huge profit now.

If it went smoothly like this, it wouldn’t have been any better.

“If the income is maintained at this level, we will be able to pay off all our debts within a year.”

“It would be.”

“However, we also have to consider variables that increase investment in facilities and manpower. You have to have at least 1 billion won in funds to plan for the future, CEO.”

“yes. It’s all calculated and decided, so you don’t have to worry about it. Do you have a job?”

“I’m taking it easy. Commuting hours are regular. I think this is better than the others. There is no need to work overtime.”

“That’s good.”

At her previous job, it was normal for her to go to work at 10 o’clock and leave work at 12 o’clock at night or early in the morning.

In addition, the amount of work varies from time to time, so it was difficult to adapt.

However, when she came to Nuri, her commuting time was fixed, and Eunsoo Jin was very satisfied with this life.

“But can I really not manage the two-point scrap metal?”

“yes. Don’t worry, I’m in charge of the scrap metal at the 2nd point.”

Dataization related to scrap metal is now being steadily progressed by Jin Eun-soo.

Of course, it would be nice if the data were clearly organized, but the problem was Siwoo Lee’s ability.

This is because it was a part that could cause errors in the data.

“I know.”

Kang Pil-joong said this to Jin Eun-soo on the first day.

― Any matters related to scrap metal at the 2nd point must be submitted according to the opinion of the CEO. It’s better not to touch that, even if it’s Director Jin. The part about scrap metal is the sole authority of the CEO.

It was impossible to know why Kang Pil-joong was so reluctant.

“I am steadily recording the data of scrap metal at two points, so don’t worry.”

* * *

Wonkwang’s representative, Jang Gwang-sun, thought that he could never ignore the appearance of Nuri beating up.

‘Myungsan and The S were very lively.’

A staff member approached him, biting his lip.

“Sir, the acquisition of the collection and transport company is almost complete.”

“okay?”

In the beginning, Wonkwang started with a shredder.

I started by purchasing an existing shredder, so the collection and transport licenses were not having much effect.

In the yard where Nuri actively collects and transports licenses, Wonkwang couldn’t just look at the incoming waste like before.

“yes. The acquisition will probably be finalized by the end of this week.”

“Then we can start by touching Nuri’s area.”

“We will proceed according to the wishes of the representative.”
