Stroking his beard, he looked like the king of Dubai, Ismail.
“It’s a good idea, but I’m worried about building a beekeeping facility. Beekeepers are also a problem.”
“I think the Jirisan farmers can solve that problem, would you please leave it to me?”
I took out the prepared picture. In the photo, there were high-tech beekeeping equipment made by farmers in Jirisan.
“It makes Dubai a mecca not only for hydroponics, but also for urban beekeeping.”
“Kim Deok-myeong has a talent to surprise people.”
to let u know that i been through a lot then i been going non stop with this practice for nothing
Mohammad said while looking at the advanced beekeeping equipment.
* * *
Urban beekeeping did not require permission from Dubai’s King Ismail.
This is because urban beekeeping does not require a lot of money.
The decision of the Prince of Dubai, Mohammad, alone allowed him to start work.
First, I decided to give Baba Ascar a chance to sell mint tea.
It was decided to install an apiary on the roof of a building owned by the Dubai royal family.
The pilot apiary was decided to be carried out by the farmers of Jirisan Mountain.
I entrusted the task to Kang Su-yeol.
“Help Su-yeol build an apiary. Of course, helping Baba will have to use the weekend. The most important thing for us is to complete the Dubai plantation facility.”
“I will do as the representative says.”
“There is one thing I want to ask Su-yeol.”
Kang Soo-yeol looked into my eyes.
“Why are you interested in Baba?”
Kang Su-yeol hesitated with a worried expression on his face.
“If you don’t want to talk, you don’t have to.”
At that time, Kang Su-yeol said as if he had made up his mind.
“Actually, I am a Candle School scholarship student.”
Kang Su-yeol first revealed that he came from a candle school.
“Are you talking about the candle school run by the Jirisan farmers?”
He nodded without a word. His eyes were moist.
“Like Baba, I had a hard life with my mother alone. If it hadn’t been for the Candle School scholarship back then, I wouldn’t be where I am today.”
“That’s why you wanted to help Baba.”
“I wanted to help others the same way I was helped at Candle School.”
Kang Soo-yeol said with his eyes twinkling.
“When I applied for the Jirisan farmers, I hid that I was from a candle school. I didn’t want to penalize other applicants at any cost. Gahee Jeong also said that it would be good.”
“Did Gahee Jeong say that?”
“yes. He told me to be fair and fair farmers in Jirisan.”
I burst out laughing involuntarily.
It was because of Jeong Ga-hee that the children of Candle School didn’t bother to tell me where they came from.

It had been two months since I came to Dubai.
The construction of the cultivation facility is almost finished.
CEO Cha Jong-moon said while looking at the cultivation facility.
“We have a week left until the end.”
“You’ve been through a lot.”
“The hard work was done by CEO Kim Deok-myung. I just built the building according to President Kim’s request.”
he said with a smile. Once again, I thought that it was good to work with Cha Jong-moon, CEO of Joongwon Construction.

Now, in a week, the Dubai cultivation facility will be completed.
This is the most relaxing weekend since I came to Dubai. Today, without moving, I decided to rest at the hotel.
Until Lee Jang-woo wakes up from a sweet sleep.
“Wake up, on a day like today, you should play a little.”
“I want to get some rest~”
“I should play one more day when I was young.”
Jangwoo Lee pulled me out of bed. It is the moment when peaceful holidays disappear like smoke.
We went out to downtown Dubai.
Lee Jang-woo headed to the restaurant.
“Let’s eat. The menu will be decided by me.”
“The Dubai experts will take care of that.”
I said in a playful tone.
Lee Jang-woo headed to the sandwich shop.
He didn’t like to eat sandwiches except when he was at work. It’s an unexpected choice.
I did not eat at the store and placed an order for take-out.
He bought so many sandwiches that he couldn’t lift it with two hands.
I had to pick up a sandwich bag that even me wrapped up.
“How many sandwiches did you buy?”
“I ordered 32.”
“Are you sure you don’t want to eat all of this?”
“I’m not a food fighter, how do I eat all this?”
“Now confess. where are you going?”
“It’s the building in front of you.”
The building Jang-woo Lee pointed to is where an apiary is being built. He also knew about Baba’s apiary.
“Are you going to the apiary?”
Lee Jang-woo smiled and nodded his head.
We grabbed our sandwiches and went up to the roof of the building.
When I first brought Kang Su-yeol here, it was an empty place.
It was completely different now.
Flowers are in full bloom in the rooftop garden. The beehive was also neatly organized.
“Lunch delivery is here.”
Lee Jang-woo shouted at the people. Young farmers, including Kang Su-yeol, came waving their hands.
The cultivation team and the engineer team were together.
Lee Jang-woo took out a sandwich and said.
“One in front of each person.”
Seeing the sandwich, Baba also ran.
“Can I take two? Even your mother’s?”
“okay. Baba has two sandwiches.”
Jang-Woo Lee gave Baba two sandwiches.
Baba ran to the woman in the chador.
I asked Lee Jang-woo while eating a sandwich.
“Did you mobilize young farmers?”

Only Kang Su-yeol and Lee Jang-woo were informed of this.
He asked Lee Jang-woo not to speak until the cultivation facility was completed.
After completing the cultivation facility, I hoped to work leisurely.
Young farmers did not want to work without weekends.
Lee Jang-woo opened his eyes wide as if in bewilderment and said.
“I never did. It came voluntarily.”
“Really?”
I looked at Lee Jang-woo with suspicious eyes.
Lee Jang-woo strongly denied it by waving his hand.
Then Kang Soo-yeol appeared.
“Lee Jang-woo is right. I accidentally reported this.”
“Then, did Su-yeol ask people?”
“I didn’t ask for it, but everyone volunteered to do it.”
Kang Su-yeol looked at the people and said. I looked into their eyes. It seemed that Kang Soo-yeol’s words were true.
“We split up the team and take turns helping out.”
They had a set time to work.
I could feel the warmth of people. I suddenly felt better.
“Then I have to show off my skills!”
I rolled up my arms and said.
“It is enough for us to do it alone. You don’t even have to do it to the representative.”
Kang Soo-yeol said with a puzzled expression on his face.
Then, Jang-Woo Lee grabbed my wrist.
“I agree with my friend. I think it would be better for our representative not to come forward.”
“Aren’t you going to stop me because I’m afraid you’ll get a job too?”
I looked into his eyes and said.
Lee Jang-woo said, avoiding my eyes.
“It’s not necessarily like that.”
“Do you remember what you said when you woke me up earlier?”
“What did I say?”
“When I was young, I had to work one more day.”
“Who says that? No, I said when I was young that I should play just one more day!”
Jang-Woo Lee opened his eyes and responded.
At those words, the people who ate the sandwich laughed and laughed.
So that day we worked all day in the apiary.
I suddenly remembered the time when I started beekeeping.
There were times when it was difficult, but looking back, it was a beautiful memory.

Finally, the Dubai cultivation facility was completed.
The completion ceremony was attended by Ismail, the king of Dubai. Prince Mohammad escorted him.
As promised, the king of Dubai gathered foreign media from all over the world in one place.
Among the reporters was Bae Seon-ah, a reporter from a Korean newspaper.
People from reporters to Dubai citizens were in front of the planting facilities.
After a formal greeting, King Ismail of Dubai handed me the microphone. He didn’t know much about hydroponics.
When I grabbed the mic, everyone paid attention to me.
“My name is Kim Deok-myung, the representative of the Jirisan farmers. First of all, I would like to thank everyone who came to celebrate the completion of the cultivation facility. There is one thing I would like to introduce before opening the cultivation facility.”
I pointed to the large sculpture.
Water drops began to fall from the sculpture.
People cheered as they saw the raindrops.
Camera reporters were busy pressing the shutter.
“It is a sculpture called the blessing of rain. It was made by taking advantage of the characteristics of hydroponics where water circulates.”
I led the reporters into the cultivation facility on the first floor.
Fresh salads were growing in the growing facility.
Reporters couldn’t keep their mouths shut when they saw the overwhelming scale of the planting facilities.

On that day, the cultivation facilities built by farmers in Jirisan were reported around the world.
The media from around the world paid more attention to Kim Deok-myeong than the king of Dubai.
It reported that Kim Deok-myeong, the representative of Jirisan farmers, is a pioneer to advance the future of agriculture.
international reputation
Salad cultivation began in earnest at the Dubai growing facility.
I watched all the devices run smoothly for a week.
Cha Jong-moon, CEO of Joongwon Construction, also stood by my side.
I watched closely for a week, and found no particular problem.
I told Cha Jong-moon, CEO of Jungwon Construction
“I think CEO Cha Jong-moon can go to Korea now.”
“CEO Kim Deok-myeong should also go.”
“I still have some work left to do.”
After returning to Korea, CEO Cha Jong-moon left a major technical team behind. I liked his attitude.

We invited young farmers to the hotel seminar room.
100 young farmers were looking at me.
“It has been a lot of hard work. Thanks to all of you, we were able to successfully complete the cultivation facility. We will now be managing our Dubai growing facilities on a rotation basis. Half of them will return to Korea soon.”
Even though they already knew the truth, their faces were mixed with joy.
A smile bloomed on the faces of the young farmers returning to Korea.
“I will inform you of the date when I will return to Korea soon. Until then, please do your best.”
“I will do my best.”
He said with one mouthful, as if he had promised.
The loud voices of young farmers echoed through the seminar room.
After finishing the announcement, it was time to go back to their respective seats.
Kang Su-yeol approached me. His face was charred from work on the rooftop apiary.
“Do you have anything to say to me?”
“I was wondering if I could change the rotation. If things go well, I have to go back to Korea.”
“Then you want to stay in Dubai?”
“yes. I still have apiary work to do.”
I looked into Kang Soo-yeol’s eyes. I felt the will to stay here.
“Have you decided who will change your rotation?”
“Yes, someone has already told you.”
he said with a smile. There was someone still standing in the corner of the seminar room. It was like what Kang Su-yeol said.
“good.”
“thank you.”
“Instead, it is a condition of taking responsibility for the Dubai apiary.”
Kang Soo-yeol smiled and nodded his head.
Jangwoo Lee was waiting for me in front of the seminar room.
“What did Kang Su-yeol say?”
“I asked you to change the rotation.”
“Did you say you wanted to go back to Korea?”
Lee Jang-woo said as if it was natural.
“Kang Su-yeol was originally Jo who was going back to Korea.”
“what? So you want to stay in Dubai?”
“right. I think he wants to keep the apiary.”
“He’s a weirdo. Everyone is anxious to return to Korea.”
“By the way, have you been waiting for me all this time? What’s wrong with you?”
“Let’s go into the room and talk.”
He said looking around. He is also a face with something to say to me.
Lee Jang-woo started drinking coffee. Unlike usual, there was no playfulness on his face.
He handed me a coffee and looked into my eyes for a long time.
After a moment’s hesitation, he opened his mouth.
“It’s a rotation.”
“Are you also having a rotation problem?”
“Am I supposed to stay in Dubai too?”
“That’s right, Team Leader Lee Jang-woo is in charge of Dubai.”
Lee Jang-woo drank coffee without saying a word. He has been in Dubai for almost a year. It was because he was acting as an advisor while the Dubai planting facility was being completed.
“Even the Antarctic crew members work on a yearly basis. I think it’s a bit long.”
“I think you need to understand. No one knows the situation in Dubai as well as Lee Jang-woo.”
“That is true.”
“Have a little more trouble. I’ll get someone to replace me sooner or later.”
