238: One push and see (5)
“uh! Why are you here?”
“hello!”
The person who entered the bakery was Park Woon-hyung. He was a friend of Min-seok, who was the fourth member of the Dongyoung Group’s board of directors.
He was also one of the tteokbokki who were taken to Muuido as a member of the Mangnani Club. He didn’t expect to see a figure he thought he would never see again in his father’s shop, even early in the morning.
“ah! Should I be respectful now?”
“no. Just feel free to call me!”
Since the relationship between the instructor and tteokbokki was no longer, I had to be polite. The opponent was older than Cheol-woo and had a higher social status.
However, once the relationship was engraved, it was difficult to change it easily. Even now, when I stand in front of him, the thought of washing laundry comes to my mind and I get short of breath. What manners can I follow?
“okay? So let’s make it easy when we’re together. You can relax too.”
“Oh, no. I’m rather comfortable with this. Never mind.”
“Then what? But what have you been doing here since dawn?”
Cheol-woo looked up and down Unhyeong and asked. He was wearing the active clothes of the tteokbokki era under the padding.
Since the weather had become quite chilly, not many people were moving outside since morning. But it was strange to find the store in this way.
“Have you not heard yet? That instructor, no, I entered the building as a tenant.”
“Yeah, since when?”
“From yesterday. I went to the store for the first time today. To eat breakfast…”
“like! Was there any reason for that?”
Then the door opened again and Minseok entered. He saw Unhyeong and Cheol-woo, friends of the same age, together, and ran to him.
“hello?”
“Well, as you can see… But, did you bring it in?”
Cheol-woo asked while sitting on his seat, scratching his chin. Minseok scratched the back of his head as if he was shy and answered.
“How did it happen? It wasn’t my intention to do this, but because Manho and I were here, a few people followed.”
“How many people, then, are you saying there are more?”
“yes! The third from Yangjeon group and the second from Jungwoo group came in with him.”
“Why are you doing this?”
“Well, it’s just that everyone wakes up automatically in the morning and there are no friends around to play with…”
Unhyeong, who was standing next to Minseok, answered. If you listened to his attitude and actions, you could understand the reason.
“Yeah, well, it won’t hurt me either. At least you can get a monthly rent. So how much did you pay for it?”
“I have decided to give you 200 per month, including the maintenance fee, in addition to the deposit of 2,000.”
“My mother couldn’t have called me so loudly, could I?”
“We just asked each other to do that. Thank you for accepting me…”
“her! My mom, you’re totally hooked. Huh!”
The monthly rent went straight into Soyeon’s pocket. The thrifty woman couldn’t waste her money, but once she had her pockets, there was nothing wrong with it.
Unhyeong, who was examining Cheol-woo’s expression, breathed a long sigh of relief inwardly. I was worried that it would only make things bigger by making him feel uncomfortable for nothing.
But looking back, it didn’t seem like that would happen. Living here, she was determined to live her life hard, catching up on her desire to run away from difficulties.
“ah! And thank you for pushing me forward. Thanks to this, the company’s finances have been refreshed.”
Unhyeong bowed once again to his waist, expressing his gratitude. Thanks to the job Chul-woo asked for, the company’s sales, which had only been declining, barely changed direction.
Unhyeong was the director of Dongyoung Distribution, a subsidiary of Dongyoung Group. Since an executive who was about to retire sat in the president’s seat, he effectively managed the entire company.
However, he was addicted to drugs and there was no way he could run the company normally. He was barely living on the job he was asked by the head office, but the company’s operation was getting worse and worse.
Because of his status as the fourth son of the president, there was no one to say anything about the company’s funds. He went out day and night, pouring money into parties and girls, and there was no money left.
When I came back to the company after waking up from the unconscious mind, it was only then that I saw reality in front of my eyes. The wide eyes looked at him with resentment, and there was no life in the faces of the employees.
In order to fill the hole in the funds lost by his entertainment expenses, sincere employees had to be cut one after another, and aging facilities could not be replaced in time. The reality he looked at with his bare mind made him unable to even raise his head.
In shame, he hurriedly ran to find funds, but all he returned was the laughter and coldness of the brothers. In the end, he managed to make up for the deficit with the help of his father, but it was difficult to run the company in the future.
And then, like a miracle, a new job came in. With him, a large advance deposit came in and opened the breath.
“It’s nothing, don’t worry! They all came from your company.
“I cleaned up the house I used to live in and contributed to the company’s operating funds. However, the hole I made in the hammock was so large that it was really dark in front of my eyes. At that time, a big job came in and I barely lived. It’s only natural for me, and I even saved the lives of the company’s employees. In my heart, I want to kneel on the floor and offer a big bow.”
His bent back could hardly be straightened. That’s how the truth was told.
Cheol-woo lightly brushed the back of his hair. He was satisfied enough just to be able to make one person like this.
“Yeah, work hard with that stance! If you have any difficulties, tell me. Even if you work hard, life is hard. Let’s all live a hard life while helping each other in the relationship we’ve made.”
As I listened to Woon-hyung’s story, Park’s face suddenly came to mind. He said that he succeeded because he didn’t trust people, and that’s how it ended up.
But Chul-woo had a different idea.
The reason Park became like that was because he was drunk with success and looked at the world too easy. He believed that it was his decisive mistake to cut too easily through the arrogant eyes of a successful person in a world that was changing terribly and rapidly.
When he looked at the world with cold eyes, no one could be confident that he was strong. No matter how wealthy an individual was, he could never be more than a nation, and no matter how strong his armed forces were, he could not rule all the countries of the world.
In the end, if you let it go by yourself, it’s all just nothing. When you know that, you realize that the world can never live alone.
As if he had left his back to his comrades on the battlefield…
“Hey! The guests have already arrived. The menu will be set soon, so please wait.”
After finishing preparations in the kitchen, Jaeyoung came out with several baskets of ingredients. Seeing this, Cheol-woo jumped up and ran to the kitchen, carrying large boxes.
Min-seok and Un-hyeong, who saw it, rolled up their arms and stuck together. Seeing this, Jae-young made a rather bewildered expression.
And after a while.
Some tteokbokki entered the store again. As soon as they saw Cheol-woo, they bent down from the waist.
Looking into Jaeyoung’s eyes, he signaled not to do that. However, the tteokbokki did not immediately recognize the signal, making him uncomfortable.
“Good morning freezes to death…!”
Director Yang scratched his face when he saw Cheol-woo, who went to work after a long time. Maybe that yangban was also a sluggish person, so I didn’t see them sticking together even if they gave me the office.
“Why do you come to someone’s office in the morning and make an impression? To make people feel bad…”
“hey! are we left We are in the same company, in the same department. Even if we live, we live together, and even if we die together, we will not be happy. What, me-cancer?”
“If you want to die, you have to die alone. Why are you even sticking me in there?”
As soon as Cheol-woo sat down on the chair, Director Yang grabbed the pod by sticking his buttocks to the desk. As if it were normal now, no one around the staff cared about the two of them.
“Do I look angry now? When I asked a Chinese buyer to get me a contract, wouldn’t they be chased after I got drunk…”
“Why are you talking about it again? That’s why I asked Team B a lot of work.”
“I knew it too. But he said that what he gave to our team was less than 5% of the original work…”
In the end, it was the sound of saying that you are full, but why not give them more to eat. The yangban, who could not digest what he gave, was greedy.
“Who is it?”
“I can’t tell you that. In principle, the identity of the informant should be kept secret, right?”
I glanced around the seats of the bosses. Again, both of them were vacant.
It was strange that people who go to work with a free cup of coffee at the bakery in the morning can’t even see their noses today. He had committed a sin, so he hid himself from it.
“Anyway, I have work to do right now, so I can’t digest them all. Besides, some of them took only commission and passed on to another company… It’s okay to stop, what’s wrong with you?”
“Can we sign a contract first and hand it over to another company? Then it will all be reflected in my personnel evaluation…”
“It’s okay to move, what more can you ask for? Well, you’re doing this because you’re afraid you’ll lose even one of the president’s positions?”
“…well, there’s no law that says I can’t do it.”
“Hey, this gentleman is going to do a great job.”
“What’s the big deal…! What am I doing…? Be sincere and do your job well. A person like a deer who is warm to those below him and doesn’t hesitate to speak directly to those above him…”
“How come you seem to be saying the complete opposite…?”
Director Yang was, in fact, a model for office workers. Even if he was sick, he took a stamp from work and headed to the hospital, and never showed any dislike even if his boss made unreasonable demands.
The man who was just like weeds on the side of the road swaying as the wind blows seems to have been blown away by the wind.
‘Hey yangban, then you look like an inspiration to Park!’
In my mind, I wanted to show you how the inspiration for Park became. No one can show more vividly how the last years of life can be twisted when conceited by small successes.
“Chief Zhang! Let’s not do that, let’s go on a business trip with me this time.”
“Business trip, what kind of business trip?”
Seeing what I was doing, I was fluttering in front of me to ask for this request. Fortunately, it didn’t seem like there was a lot of waste, so I thought it was a good thing.
Director Yang tilted his head tightly, not knowing what Cheol-woo was thinking. Then he put his hand to his mouth and said in a low voice.
“Hong Kong!”
“Hong Kong···? Could the king have contacted the West again?”
“Yeah, yesterday! He wants to sign a contract with me, but he doesn’t have time. So, look at me and ask me to come to you with a contract…”
“I am not going. If you want to go, go alone.”
“Hey ah! As soon as that drunkard sees me, he’s sure to have another drink, but you want to see who gets transported out of nonsensical Hong Kong? Don’t be like that, let’s go to Hong Kong once in a while. I’ll pay for your food, so eat whatever you want. yes?”
Director Yang waved the beopka and laughed out loud. Not knowing how to wrinkle in front of the pupa, he ambitiously seduced.
“I am busy right now. Because we were working on a special project, we couldn’t take care of our team properly…”
“Since when did you say that you worked hard? Without you, things would work just fine…”
“Even though I was away, I carefully coordinated everything behind the scenes. What did I do to go-stop to win the manager’s place?”
“Hey, why are we here? i don’t know you Jang Cheol-woo does one job brilliantly. It’s just a problem because I don’t go to work… Let’s not do that, it’s over today and we’re going to talk about this issue…”
At that moment, Cheol-woo’s cell phone rang. He quickly picked up the phone and ran outside.
