After sending Ae-ra Shin, Si-woo Lee sat in the office of the shredder after a long time and checked her abilities.

―――――――――――――――

The ability has grown a lot since the beginning.

Non-ferrous production can be divided into only three categories.

aluminum, silver, and copper.

Among them, copper was a high-quality product worth 6,000 won per kg.

It was the most expensive item in the junkyard.

200 kg a day was equivalent to 1.2 million won in price.

And in addition to classification, a new ability was unlocked.

However, I still haven’t figured out what this ability means.

‘Does this mean that using extraction on scrap metal will spout iron ore? We need to figure out how to use it.’

In the case of classification, the first level did not appear.

However, when the scrap metal generation rose to level 8, the level ran.

The limit for using the first classification is about 5t?

And when the level was created, the amount of 10t was designated as the limit.

The abilities that Siwoo Lee achieved in two years were not all ordinary.

These are the abilities that were acquired after all kinds of hard work.

Scrap production was also limited to 20 tons per day when she was at level 7, but it doubled as soon as she reached level 8.

And the deadline to advance to the next level has also been increased.

Originally, it was possible to raise one level in three months, but the period was extended by one more month and changed to four months.

‘The branch was all cleaned up, and with that money I bought the land around here. And after the first stage civil work is finished, the second stage civil work is in progress and the road is being built… … .’

Siwoo Lee wanted to make this area a space for the enjoyment.

It went smoothly as planned, but there was still a long way to go.

In the state where all the civil works had not been done on the existing land, the same amount of land was purchased again.

The funds obtained by consolidating the two branches were 6 billion won.

It is safe to say that 3 billion won per branch was organized.

Because the points of Myeongsan were good enough to be coveted by other subjects.

As it was already designed as a junk store, there was no need to spend money on the change of use.

“Are you glad you didn’t clean up the 4 points?”

The 4th branch was located in Suwon, and the headquarters was located in Yongin.

All are close to Pyeongtaek.

Even for the demolition project that will start in half a year now, the two sites were essential.

I made up my next plan step by step and got up.

After the dormitory was completed, the employees cleaned up their houses one by one and entered the dormitory.

The hotel has a total of 30 rooms. It was enough for two people to use one room.

Most of the employees came to the dormitory saying it was difficult to commute.

“CEO, did you have a good visit to the ossuary?”

Today, Kim Jeong-nan always greeted Lee Si-woo with a bright smile.

As Siwoo Lee opened the door and entered, a woman greeted him. The person who welcomed him every day was Kim Jong-Nan.

“What about the other employees? The house is quiet.”

“Hyun-soo went out to see Managing Director Won. I left early in the morning to say that the rest were going home.”

“You must have been bored.”

“I slept well after a long time.”

It was the appearance of going out to the break room with only the hair tied in a shabby state, and it was a raw appearance beyond the mediocrity.

She had a pretty face, but she hated dressing up herself.

When I worked in the field, I had to live with sweat every day.

The makeup was also removed quickly.

So she couldn’t find a reason to decorate.

After living like that, she was more accustomed to not wearing makeup.

“That’s nice. Did you eat?”

“yes. The restaurant lady took care of it.”

“It’s a holiday today, did the aunt come? I told you to take a day off today… … .”

“He said he had come to organize something. They even took care of my meals.”

As the number of employees increased, it was difficult to maintain with delivery food.

Siwoo Lee created a separate restaurant in the dormitory for his employees.

And by adding food workers, we have taken measures to ensure that employees have a balanced meal.

“I’m tired, so I think I should go up first. Employee Kim Jong-Nan should also rest well.”

“yes. I’ll wake you up later in the evening. You have to eat on time.”

“Then thank you.”

After Lee Si-woo broke up with Kim Jeong-nan, he went straight up to his room on the 4th floor.

The building is a total of four stories high, and an elevator has been placed so that employees do not have to go up and down the stairs.

A considerable amount of money was spent to build the lodging, but it was not worth it.

Rather, we wanted it to be a space where employees could relax and feel comfortable.

Siwoo Lee’s house occupies a quarter of the fourth floor. The other dormitory rooms were configured like a studio.

However, Siwoo Lee’s room had the structure of a family house.

It has two bedrooms and a spacious living room.

When I first designed Si-Woo Lee’s room, it was no different from other hostels.

However, Kang Pil-joong shouted against the union, saying that it should never be the case.

And the rest of the directors and Moon Jae-shin also made the same argument as Kang Pil-joong.

As a result, I had no choice but to live in a place that was different from other lodgings.

“ha… … .”

After entering the house, I roughly changed clothes and went into the bedroom.

Kim Jong-nan was the only one who knew the password to his house.

On the weekends, Siwoo Lee often slept without eating.

And it was Kim Jeong-nan who took care of Lee Si-woo’s meal.

There are many times when there is no answer even when ringing the bell, so Si-woo Lee gave her the password to the house.

* * *

After breaking up with Siwoo Lee, Shin Ae-ra, who came into the officetel, had a hardened face.

Someone must have entered his house, which no one would know.

“Can I enter someone else’s house without permission, Grandpa?”

A narrow square of about 20 square meters.

Shin Won-sun, who was standing by the living room window, turned his head at the cold voice.

“I’m sorry I came in without permission. But I don’t think you’ll give me the password.”

“… I told you I was going to see you this week.”

Shin Ae-ra visited Shin Won-seon’s mansion once every three months as promised.

It was all about having dinner, but for Shin Won-sun, those times were so precious.

Shin Won-sun hardened his expression and said in a soft voice.

“Reporter Seon Bo-yeon.”

“… Why reporter Sun?”

“They are digging behind you. What is Kang Eung-ryong going to do if he can’t stop that one thing?”

“Grandpa, I will take care of my work.”

I already knew that Shin Ae-ra would be angry.

Still, Shin Won-sun did not want his granddaughter to be hurt any more.

“Get out of the Pyeongtaek redevelopment project.”

Shin Won-sun, a reporter Seon-yeon, was not the kind of person who could say such a thing.

Shin Ae-ra’s expression hardened in an instant, noticing something strange.

“… Were there any other reporters besides Seon Seon-yeon?”

“An unheard of company won the demolition project at an overwhelming unit price. Of course, you know the true value of CEO Lee Si-woo, but not everyone else.”

expected it

The more I meet Lee Si-woo, the more people will notice.

Only reporter Seon Seon-yeon was able to stop Kang Eung-ryong.

But not the other reporters.

“I can’t give up. It’s something I’ve been preparing for years.”

“Then, did you end your relationship with CEO Lee Si-woo?”

“grandfather!”

It wasn’t serious.

Due to the last bid, various companies were watching Nuri.

And they were preparing to attack Nuri if they saw a slight gap.

“I speak for you.”

“… I would rather withdraw from the Pyeongtaek redevelopment project. I can’t sort out my relationship with Siu.”

“Even if you withdraw from the redevelopment project, there will be countless attacks. Right now, this grandfather is blocking it, but aren’t you expecting it to explode soon?”

“Are you saying that I should quit the civil service? Please be honest.”

“… right.”

“I know you want to quit civil service and take a successor class. But even if I quit the civil service, I don’t go out of my way.”

Shin Ae-ra’s persistence was strong.

No matter what happened, he kept his word unconditionally.

This stubbornness of the granddaughter was very similar to that of Shin Won-sun.

“I’m afraid you’ll get hurt. What will the grandfather be greedy for now? I just want you to know that I am worried about my grandfather, who is about to die.”

“I have already suffered all the pain that I should have suffered for the rest of my life. When my father died that way because of my grandfather’s greed, how I… Do you know how painful it was?”

Shin Ae-ra had poison in her eyes and put a dagger in Shin Won-seon’s chest.

“sorry. But like your father, I don’t want to let you go like that.”

Shin Won-sun met Shin Ae-ra’s eyes with eyes dripping with earnestness.

If I had hated everyone like this, I couldn’t turn back.

Standards that are particularly high for civil servants.

If the relationship with Lee Si-woo became known, the people would attack Shin Ae-ra without asking or questioning.

“It has been 10 years since I became a civil servant. At the age of 20, I didn’t like my grandfather, so I decided to die and become a civil servant. To get away from my grandfather, I prepared 10 years to prepare to live alone.”

“Ah ah… … .”

“People call Grandpa like this. It’s called Gangdong Tiger.”

It was a childish nickname.

Being born in Gangdong, Seoul, he became a symbol of the area.

And I expected that he would name the steel mill Gangdong after his nickname.

“… Don’t you know that even I don’t like that nickname?”

Shin Won-sun didn’t like the nickname Kang Dong’s tiger.

“Then why did you name the steel mill Gangdong? It must not have been a letter from my father’s and mother’s names.”

“… I know you’re a big disappointment to me. But to me, Donghwan and Kang Hwan were precious family members.”

Shin Ae-ra’s father’s name was Shin Dong-hwan, and her mother’s name was Lee Kang-yeon.

Contrary to Shin Ae-ra’s expectation, Shin Won-sun was named Gang-dong after the letters in the middle of the two.

There was one reason why he resigned as chairman of the ironworks and set up a new company.

It was to make Shin Ae-ra a better life than others when she left.

However, Shin Ae-ra resented Shin Won-sun, who came to her and brought back memories of the past as her relationship is slowly progressing.

“You know that saying it was a precious family is a contradiction, right? Why are you? I’m just getting rid of the core little by little… … .”

“I know I am not a grandfather. I know how painful and painful you have gone through, so I couldn’t even force you.”

I was able to bring it to Gangdong by force.

But Shin Won-sun didn’t do that.

Shin Ae-ra wanted to choose herself.

“Then why are you forcing me?”

“Because I don’t even want to let you go! others are like that A person named Shin Won-sun is cold-blooded and has abandoned his children because he has been crazy about work all his life.”

“That’s right.”

Now Shin Ae-ra’s words, every single word, were harsh words to Shin Won-sun.

But he was so pathetic that he couldn’t even refute the words of his granddaughter.

“I will not deny it. Because I was the one who drove Donghwan to death after being too greedy.”

“… … .”

“But I want you to know this. It wasn’t that he wasn’t interested in his children. I just did it because I wanted Donghwan to do better.”

Originally, Shin Dong-hwan had a promised marriage seat.

Inje-hoo and Shin Won-seon made a promise to each other since they were very young.

It was a promise to marry each other’s children.

However, Shin Dong-hwan did not marry Inje-hu’s daughter and chose Lee Kang-yeon, who grew up in an ordinary family.

Shin Dong-hwan had to leave the house after Shin Won-sun said that he would never allow it.

He was a master who lived his whole life under his father’s support.

However, for Shin Ae-ra, who was born to Kang-yeon Lee, she worked regardless.

“When I was born, my grandfather said he didn’t even want to see my face. I have spent 17 years in the South and South.”

It was the grandfather who came to see Shin Ae-ra after her parents died.

Shin Won-sun didn’t even see Shin Ae-ra’s face until she picked up the orphaned woman.

“… I know that you, Donghwan, and Kang Yeong did something unforgivable no matter what excuses they made.”

“Then don’t even ask me for forgiveness.”

“No. Instead, get rid of the Pyeongtaek redevelopment project. I won’t tell you to quit the civil service, and I won’t tell you to end your relationship with CEO Lee Si-woo. Can’t you just make that promise?”
