Kang Soo-yeol jumped up from his seat. He sent autographs to Seong-yoon as if in sign language, and then disappeared into the crowd.
I sat down next to Seong-yoon and asked.
“What did you just say? It seemed like a sign that only the two of us knew.”
“It means good luck. It’s a signal we use.”
Seong-yoon said, blinking her thin eyes.
Whenever I looked at his long, slender eyes, I would think of the Buddha’s face.
“How is the idea of applying crowdfunding to farming going?”
It was an idea he talked about during an interview. When a farmer posts a farming plan on the site, the consumer pays in advance.
“At that time, I could not solve the part that the representative said.”
Sung-yoon Seong-yoon answered in a low-key voice.
I asked him about the situation where he couldn’t keep his promise due to a natural disaster, etc.
“There is a way to solve that part.”
“How to fix it?”
He opened his eyes wide and asked.
I told him how to fix it.

One way to do this is through insurance.
Connect with the insurance company to claim damages.
He listened to me and nodded.
“It’s a good way. But would an insurance company make such a product?”
“That part is what I plan to deal with.”
“Are you the representative yourself?”
“Because I want to keep good ideas alive.”
Sung-yoon’s expression brightened.
There was a reason I wanted to keep his idea alive.
When farming funding became popular, it was possible to help farmers who were struggling with the market.
It was also helpful for farmers who lacked farming funds.
If only Jirisan farmers do well, Korean agriculture will not survive.
Farmers must live well together. That’s the way agriculture gets stronger.
I found the answer in Sung Yoon’s idea.
“I am going on a business trip soon. In the meantime, make your farming funding ideas concrete. It is recommended to try Hadong as the center.”
Targeting the whole country from the start was a big risk.
It was important to try something small first.
Besides, he’s still inexperienced than a beginner.
I hoped that it would spread nationwide based on small successes.
“I remember the words of Mr. Doyun, ‘Enrich the world with farming’.”
“Like the CEO, I will make my dream come true.”
Seong-yoon said with twinkling eyes.
After the dried persimmon class, I met Mr. Hwang Yu-shin.
“When I listened to the dried persimmon class again by the teacher, it reminded me of the past.”
“I also remembered the old days. When a guy named Kim Deok-myeong found me and asked me to teach you how to make dried persimmons.”
Yushin Hwang said with a laugh.
“Today, I will drive you home.”
I headed to Sangju with Hwang Yu-shin.
He asked quietly, who was quietly looking at the scenery outside.
“How is Jeong Ga-hee?”
Together with Gahee Jeong, she learned dried persimmons from Yushin Hwang.
Hwang Yu-shin was especially fond of Jeong Ga-hee.
“The candle school is running well. Among the young farmers you taught today, there are some graduates from the candle school.”
“There was also a child with unusual eyes. Maybe he came from the candle school.”
“Jung Ga-hee raised the children wonderfully. Also, I think I have more talent for education than farming.”
“Because everyone has different talents. Kim Duk-myung has an extraordinary talent for making rich farmers.”
Yushin Hwang said with a happy expression on his face.

It’s the day we’re ready to go to Dubai.
I headed to Incheon Airport with Baek Min-seok.
I changed buses from Seoul Station to the airport.
Baek Min-seok said as the bus moved.
“I’m a little nervous because it’s different than usual.”
As he said, it was a special business trip.
It is the itinerary to stop in Dubai and then to Amsterdam.
Amsterdam also had to prepare for an agricultural fair.
Baek Min-seok, who was looking out the window, turned his head and asked.
“Have you contacted Jangwoo Lee? Are we going?”
“Of course I did. He will probably meet you at the airport.”
It was not only Lee Jang-woo who contacted him.
Jungwon Construction’s CEO Cha Jong-moon and Mohammad Salah also reported the news.
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Mohammad said he would send the car to the airport as it was then.
I did not turn down the favor.
“I heard from Jang-Woo Lee that he rode a Rolls-Royce? Is that true?”
“It’s true, you’re going to ride too.”
“You drive a Rolls Royce? really?”
Baek Min-seok made a surprised expression. It seemed like something I hadn’t thought of.
“The Prince of Dubai has decided to send a car.”
“It’s also a matter of living a long time. Try a Rolls Royce.”
Baek Min-seok said with a smile like a child.
“There’s nothing better than riding a Rolls-Royce!”
“Awesome thing?”
We boarded a flight to Dubai.

I met a friendly face at Dubai International Airport.
Jang-Woo Lee greeted us with open arms.
“How is life in Dubai?”
“Every day, I see only construction sites blowing dust. It’s better to have Park Tae-ho, though.”
Park Tae-ho was greeting Baek Min-seok.
he turned his head to me
“CEO, you have worked hard to come this far.”
“Taeho was doing the hard work.”
At that time, Jang-Woo Lee pushed my back and said.
“Let’s talk as we go, Hazard is waiting outside.”
“Are you really driving a Rolls Royce?”
Baek Min-seok swallowed his saliva and asked.
“In Dubai, Rolls Royce is standard. I will be riding it often in the future.”
Lee Jang-woo said in a playful tone.
Then Park Tae-ho blinked his eyes and said.
“Actually, I’m riding it for the first time today too… … .”
Lee Jang-woo covered Park Tae-ho’s mouth.
It is a car that cannot be ridden without the consideration of Mohammad.
A Rolls-Royce with a royal license plate approached us.
Hazard opened the car door and walked out. He was wearing a traditional Arab garment with a white cloth down to his knees.
“Welcome to Dubai.”
Hazard said, revealing his white teeth.
When I first came to Dubai, he came to meet me. Hazard was one of Mohammad’s trusted advisers.
Baek Min-seok got into the Rolls Royce with a look of anticipation. It was like a child riding a ride for the first time.
Dubai is back after a few months. I feel it every time I see it, but it was like a futuristic city built on the desert.
Lee Jang-woo said looking out the window.
“It doesn’t look like it will rain today.”
“Are you waiting for the rain?”
“On a rainy day, the muggy air goes away. Unknowingly, I was waiting for the rain. Now I can see why people in Dubai call it the rain of luck.”
“I’m done with Dubai.”
Then Park Tae-ho intervened.
“I also agree with what the manager said. It is because I want to raise the rain system. Maybe the people of Dubai will be happy when our facility is complete. You can see it raining every day.”
A large-scale sculpture in the shape of rain is placed in our cultivation facility.
At the same time as announcing the hydroponics facility, the shape of the rain that Dubai people cheer for is placed on the exterior of the building.
Even now, it was a great idea.
The growing facility will become an iconic building in Dubai.

Arriving at the hotel, I called Mohammad.
“Did you arrive well?”
“Thank you for making me feel comfortable.”
“How about we meet tomorrow? I also have to get rid of my addiction.”
It’s a royal conversation. He showed an attitude of caring for people.
“Well then, see you tomorrow.”
When I hung up the phone, Baek Min-seok, who was next to me, asked.
“Are you going to see the Prince of Dubai tomorrow?”
“Okay, we’re going to meet tomorrow.”
“Are you going to rest today?”
“I have a lot of work to do today.”
I looked at him and smiled.
First, we had to go to the site. I was being reported through Lee Jang-woo, but I wanted to see it with my own eyes.
“Jangwoo, let’s go to the field together.”
“As expected, our CEO never takes a day off.”
Lee Jang-woo prepared to leave and asked Baek Min-seok.
“Are you sure you don’t have sunglasses?”
“I was going to buy one in Dubai.”
Baek Min-seok replied with a smile.
“Sunglasses are absolutely essential here. Write mine first.”
Lee Jang-woo took out the glasses case from the bag.
These were the sunglasses he carried with him.
We ran straight to the scene.
Construction is in full swing.
It was easy to find CEO Cha Jong-moon. His short hair stood out.
“CEO Cha Jong-moon, I’m here.”
“CEO Kim is here.”
“Are things going well?”
“As you can see, things are going smoothly.”
He pointed to the scene with his hand and said.
When I turned my head and looked at the site, the skeleton of a huge cultivation facility was being built.
“There is a lot of manpower.”
“There are a lot of construction workers in Dubai. Of course, there was also dispatch from Jungwon Construction. They are all first-class technicians.”
As he said, Korean engineers were everywhere.
They were giving instructions to local workers in Dubai.
“Thanks to Lee Jang-woo, the construction is progressing quickly.”
CEO Cha Jong-moon looked at Lee Jang-woo behind me and said.
“CEO Cha, you’re taking the plane again.”
“What did I say wrong?”
The two men laughed at each other.
It seemed like we got pretty close while we were in Dubai.
I looked around the scene as if to scan.
CEO Cha Jong-moon guided me and reported on the progress.
It is when you are watching the scene without realizing that time is passing.
The bell rang.
“What are you talking about?”
“It’s lunch time.”
CEO Cha Jong-moon said as he wiped the sweat running down his forehead.
“You can also eat with CEO Kim.”
I entered the tent erected on site with my colleagues.
It is used by local people as a eatery.
Everyone was given a packed lunch.
Lee Jang-woo said as he opened the lid of his lunch box.
“Today is a chicken curry lunch. Eat it, it’s quite edible.”
It tasted better than the chicken curry I had in Korea.
Baek Min-seok said while eating his lunch box.
“It really is like Indian curry.”
“Because it was made by an Indian chef himself.”
Lee Jang-woo said while eating chicken curry.
“Dubai is a gathering place for workers from all over the world. The food is also global. The lunchbox I’m eating right now is packed from an Indian restaurant. Chicken curry is the most popular.”
I turned my head and looked inside the tent.
People from various regions, from Indians, were eating curry lunch boxes.
The shadows of Dubai.

The next destination was guided by Park Tae-ho.
I’m on my way to meet the person who bought the salad container for personal use.
Park Tae-ho was also doing business with market research in Dubai.
Dubai aristocrats showed a lot of interest, and one of them bought it.
Park Tae-ho shared information about him.
“I am a Dubai noble, and my name is Abdullah Sama. I am currently working as a director of the Dubai State Oil Company.”
Dubai aristocrats are the second most powerful people after royalty.
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Most of them work for state-owned companies. When it comes to oil companies, they are the most powerful axis among the aristocrats.
“There were a lot of aristocrats interested in salad containers.”
I heard Park Tae-ho’s story with interest.
Because it is something I never thought of in Korea.
Built as a growing facility for farmers, never thought of as a personal salad container.
I wanted to talk to Abdullah Sama.
A mansion appeared in the middle of the desert.
It wasn’t as big as the royal palace, but there were quite a few bodyguards guarding the house.
The hard iron door opened and the inside was revealed.
A large swimming pool stood out. It was like seeing an oasis.
There was also a date palm tree that is said to only grow in oasis.
Abdullah Sama greeted us in traditional Arab clothing.
