Chapter 491:
“It seems like a long story, would you like a cup of tea?”
“The subtle aroma of burdock tea is tempting.”
“An excellent choice. Please wait a moment.”
“Take your time.”
Yoo-hyun smiled as he watched Lawyer Kwon Chi-yeol get up from his seat.
Their rtionship hadpletely changed from the past and it was unfolding before his eyes.
Yoo-hyun met with Lawyer Kwon Chi-yeol and first stopped by the Hansung Precision Seosan factory.
He didn’t have to reveal that he belonged to the group strategy office, as he easily essed the ce using his master authority.
There, he confirmed what he had guessed and moved on to the Hansae Ilbo headquarters.He was able to meet the editor-in-chief with the power of his group strategy office business card.
Otherwise?
It would have been an impossible ce to reach.
The editor-in-chief greeted him with a slightly annoyed face.
“What brings you here from the group strategy office?”
“I want to check something. Please have a seat.”
“Hmm.”
Yoo-hyun responded with a rxed expression.
Then he told him an interesting story.
“It’s about the article on the Wonju factory strike.”
“Is there a problem?”
“Actually…”
As Yoo-hyun’s words went on, the editor-in-chief’s eyes sparkled.
Yoo-hyun also met with Park Young-hoon and checked the temporary funding limit that could be useful.
He then took some time to visit the Yongsan electronics market and buy the equipment he needed to handle the work.
All of this was to make sure he dealt with the strike issue.
That didn’t mean he only worked while staying in Seoul.
He had some leeway, so he took care of some personal tasks that he had postponed.
Buying a car was one of them.
Beep.
As he opened the door and entered the store, he heard a loud voice from the staff.
“Wee. This is Hyunil Motors Eunpyeong branch, where we serve our customers with love and sincerity.”
This ce was the one with the highest overall score among the car dealershipsparison chart that Jang Joon-sik had organized in the past, so it was trustworthy.
Yoo-hyun received a quick guide from the salesperson rmended by Jang Joon-sik.
“This SUV is a midsize model, but it has 20 percent more interior space than itspetitors, and the built-in interior is a coboration with Navitime…”
“How about the passenger seat?”
“The seat can be raised quite high, so it has a wide view. That’s why women especially prefer this car.”
“Then I’ll take this car.”
“Really? You don’t need to see any other cars?”
He didn’t need to hear any more.
He chose his car and headed for the next one.
It was his mother’s turn now.
Yoo-hyun, who had made up his mind, pointed to the car next to him.
“I’ve already looked into it. And please show me that car too.”
The salesperson who received Yoo-hyun’s gesture ran over with quick steps.
He stood in front of therge sedan and said with a proud voice.
“This car is the highest-end model of Hyunil Motors, and it’s the car that the chairman drives. It’s also famous as the presidential escort vehicle.”
“What about safety?”
“It’s excellent enough to receive the highest safety rating in the US. We are confident that we are definitely superior to ourpetitors in this regard. However, the price is…”
“I see. I’ll take this one too.”
“I haven’t told you the price yet, it’s quite high.”
The salesperson was shocked, but it didn’t matter.
Price was not an issue in front of his mother’s safety.
Traffic ident.
If he couldn’t prevent it, he desperately needed the minimum safety device.
His mother was the only one in the world.
He had nothing to regret for her.
Even if the price was ten times higher, he would buy it if it was safe.
Yoo-hyun expressed his will.
“It’s okay. Please raise the safety option to the maximum.”
“Wow. Thank you. I’ll do my best to serve you.”
The salesperson bowed and ran to get the contract, and Yoo-hyun signed it right away.
It took less than 30 minutes for Yoo-hyun to finish everything at the car dealership.
The car salesperson was not a person who talked nonsense, although he talked a lot.
As he said he would do his best to serve him, the car was delivered a few dayster.
Thanks to that, Yoo-hyun was able to drive to his business trip.
Vroom.
As Yoo-hyun held the steering wheel, Han Jae-hee, who was sitting in the passenger seat, asked.
“How do you feel? Being the first person to ride this car with me?”
“Very good, very good.”
“But why do you look like that? You look annoyed that I got in before Da-hye unni.”
He hit the nail on the head with his question, and Yoo-hyun hid his embarrassment and asked.
“Do you know who Da-hye is?”
“You send hearts to each other every day on KakaoTalk, why wouldn’t I know? Her profile picture looks pretty too.”
“Ugh. Don’t say anything unnecessary to mom.”
“Nyah. I’m going to say you’re getting married soon, no, you’re going to have a grandchild soon.”
“Hey.”
Yoo-hyun was about to grab his sister’s head when it happened.
Beep beep beep.
The buzzer rang and the caller’s name appeared on the navigation screen.
“Huh? Mom?”
“Please keep your mouth shut.”
Yoo-hyun warned Han Jae-hee and pressed the button on the steering wheel to answer the phone.
Soon, his mother’s voice rang through the audio speaker.
-Yoo-hyun, what is this car?
“What do you mean? It’s your son’s heart for you.”
-I don’t need a car, why did you send me this?
His mother’s words made Han Jae-hee mutter to herself.
“You don’t need it, you were so happy when oppa got you car insurance.”
“Shh.”
Yoo-hyun put his index finger on his lips and gave his mother the answer she wanted.
“You have to drive now, mom. You said you needed a car for your side dish store, which is getting bigger.”
-Isn’t that too fancy for something like that? I heard that only bigpany presidents ride cars like that.
“Hey, my mother is also a big side dish shop owner, so what’s wrong with that? It’s much better than my father’s bongo.”
-Well, that’s true. That was a bit shabby.
“That car will be much morefortable and nice. And safer too. I’ve got a big insurance guarantee, so don’t worry about driving.”
Yoo-hyun said that, emphasizing safety.
At the same time, one memory filled his head.
-The problem was the car’s brake defect. The car that thepany rented out was so old that the parts were loose. I offer my condolences to the deceased.
It was Yoo-hyun’s heart that he didn’t want to lose his mother in vain again.
Maybe his feelings were conveyed, because his mother said something that touched Yoo-hyun’s heart.
-Thank you. And I’ll drive safely.
“That’s enough. What does dad say?”
-He pretends to be calm on the outside, but he seems to be very hurt inside. Well, whatever. He’s not my son.
“Haha. You did well, mother.”
Yoo-hyunughed at his mother’s joke.
It was then that his mother said something that she didn’t need to say.
-Of course. My son is the best, no matter what. He’s a hundred times better than my daughter.
Suddenly, Han Jae Hee, who had been silent, shouted.
“Mom.”
-Oh, Jae Hee, why are you there?
“I heard everything. Give me back the handbag I bought you.”
-Hoho. I’m just kidding. Well, have fun. I love you, son and daughter.
His mother hurriedly hung up the phone, trying to express her affection.
“I love you too, mom.”
Click.
The phone was cut off with Yoo-hyun’s voice.
Han Jae Hee, who had been frowning with her arms crossed, gagged.
“Ugh. What’s love? What a cheesy thing to do.”
“You should do well too, jerk.”
“What do you mean by doing well?”
“Be nice to your family when you’re together. This moment is not forever.”
Yoo-hyun said seriously, and Han Jae Hee pouted.
“Tsk. I’ll do wellter.”
“Fine. Do whatever you want. Come on, we’re here. Get off.”
Screech.
Yoo-hyun parked the car on a big road facing the Sindorim campus.
Han Jae Hee, who got out of the car, said with an awkward expression.
“Hmm. Thanks for the ride.”
“No more next time. From now on,mute by bus.”
“It’s not like that. Anyway, drive carefully. Don’t crash anywhere.”
Bang.
Han Jae Hee closed the door and walked across the crosswalk with a quick step.
She didn’t even look back and thought she would go, but she stopped and waved her hand after crossing the big road.
Did she grow up?
Yoo-hyun chuckled and waved his hand to tell her to go.
But Han Jae Hee didn’t seem to want to go and kept waving her hand.
It was awkward to stay there, pretending to set up the navigation.
“She always overdoes it when it’s not necessary.”
Yoo-hyun took a picture of his lovely sister in his eyes and stepped on the elerator.
He felt like he had finally fixed one of the past things he wanted to fix.
Yoo-hyun ran to fix another thing that was wrong.
Vroom.
It was after Yoo-hyun’s car left.
The green light changed again, and people crossed the crosswalk.
Han Jae Hee, who had been waving her arm, ran up in one step.
“Chief Jang. Here. Here.”
“Huh? Jae Hee, what are you doing here?”
Jang Hye Min, the chief, asked in surprise, and Han Jae Hee clung to her arm.
“Unni, I’ve been waiting for you. Let’s go.”
“Shall we have a cup of morning tea?”
“Sure. I love that tea.”
Han Jae Hee, who had no interest in her brother’s new car, smiled brightly.
And Yoo-hyun, who didn’t know the back story, drove hard.
But he didn’t just drive for about two hours from Seoul to Wonju factory.
He made a lot of phone calls, and the one he talked to the longest was Park Doo Sik, the deputy manager.
He had a lot to discuss with him, who shared a lot with him.
“This time…”
It was when Yoo-hyun said that.
Park Doo Sik, the deputy manager, eximed in surprise.
-Maria Carlos is visiting?
“It’s not decided yet, but there’s a possibility that she’ll visit with the royal family.”
Even though he just floated the idea, Park Doo Sik caught the point.
-Then we’ll have to support the exhibition.
“You’re right.”
-It’s obvious. The group strategy room people don’t call for no reason.
“Why are you so disappointed again?”
Yoo-hyun teased him, and Park Doo Sik chuckled.
He was close enough to have this yful conversation with him.
-Haha. I’m just kidding. Oh, did you hear? They’re investing a lot in the OLED factory.
“Yes. President Lim seems to have made a big decision.”
-It’s thanks to your report. He must have been worried about China catching up.
“More precisely, it’s thanks to the support of the Innovation Strategy Room.”
Park Doo Sik said excitedly at Yoo-hyun’s words.
-What does it matter? Anyway, now is the time to invest.
“That’s right. You did well.”
As Park Doo Sik pointed out, it was time to make a bold investment in the next-generation disy to shake off China’s pursuit.
In the past, they suffered from technology leakage and poor financial situation, but now it was different.
They had not only money, but also excellent leaders who could guide the ship in the right direction, and excellent employees who could make the world’s best disy.
If they continued like this, they had a good chance of seeding.
Yoo-hyun also talked a lot about Shin Kyung-wook, the vice president, Kwon Se-jung, the assistant, and Jang Jun Sik, and the aftermath of the Han Sung Disy spin-off.
There was a lot of interesting stuff that hadn’t been long since he left.
“Hahaha. Really?”
-Yeah. Kim Hyun-min, the person in charge, is still the same.
Especially, the stories of the old team members made Yoo-hyunugh.
They seemed to have some trouble, but they were still having fun.
Park Doo Sik asked Yoo-hyun, who was shaking his shoulders.
It was as if he knew that Yoo-hyun’s car was getting closer to the destination.
-So, what are you going to do when you get to the Wonju factory?
“Well, I’m going to try to bump into it.”
-My opinion is, you should sneak in and check out the employees. You might see something you didn’t see before.
Yoo-hyun recalled the old memories he had with him when he heard Park Doo Sik’s suggestion.
Park Doo Sik, who received the internal audit mission, made a ridiculous proposal to Yoo-hyun, who was with him.
Thanks to that, he had a lot of trouble, but he also learned a lot.
