Chapter 75 – Episode 75
Meal with Myungho Lee was enjoyable. The satisfaction was beyond imagination.
Lee Myung-ho was a very knowledgeable and upright person. He was able to hear, feel and learn a lot.
“Thank you for your kind words.”
“Actually, I am also grateful to Mr. Jinseong.”
“Yes? “For me?”
“Last time, Jinseong sent me red ginseng and told me that health comes first over work, right?”
It was a misfortune diary incident.
It was written in the misfortune diary that Lee Myung-ho collapsed from overwork. He gifted red ginseng and sent a KakaoTalk message saying that health was his top priority.
“Thanks to Jinseong’s words, I was able to reflect on my physical condition. I was so absorbed in work that I was in a semi-zombie state.”
“Aha?”
“I worked and slept. As I slept, my work efficiency increased, minor mistakes disappeared, and in the end, I was able to make the project a great success.”
“Thank goodness.”
“Thanks to you, everything worked out well. If it weren’t for Jinseong’s advice, he would have collapsed from overwork. The project would have failed too.”
Because Jinseong helped, Myungho Lee did not collapse from overwork.
Because the project was successful, the company’s value soared.
Myung-ho Lee’s value and treatment within the company also increased rapidly.
“I’m full.”
“It was delicious.”
I finished my meal. Lee Myung-ho paid, saying it was his brother’s responsibility to pay. He left the restaurant.
I found a nearby café.
“I have peach iced tea.”
“President. “Please give me one mango juice and one peach iced tea.”
Lee Myung-ho also paid for the drinks. Jinseong was able to get a drink and listen to good stories.
“Brother, we often meet when we have free time.”
“Okay.”
[Inner thoughts: After talking to him, Jinseong seems like a nicer and better friend than I imagined. It would be okay if we often met.]
[Inner thoughts: But, Jinseong, you’ve really changed a lot. He seems to have lost weight, his face has become more handsome, and he has grown taller…]
∴∴∴
Jinseong’s mother, Jiyoung Kim, was sweating profusely in the kitchen of her home.
I have no idea whether to boil 4 servings of soybean paste stew, 3 servings of kimchi stew, or 5 servings of stir-fried pork.
“One more pot!”
“Yes!”
“Two more soft tofu stews!”
“Yes!”
“Three more tofu stews!”
“Yes!”
The work was endless.
“Kimchi stew for 3 people!”
“Yes!”
“One serving of soybean paste stew!”
“Yes!”
“A set meal for 3 people!”
“Formal? Yes-!”
I had a busy morning.
‘Son?’
I wipe the sweat with a dry cloth.
I received a call from my beloved eldest son.
“Uh, son, what’s going on?”
There was joy in his voice.
– I transferred 90 million won.
“Really?”
– Huh. Check it out.
“Thank you. Thank you so much.”
I confirmed the account.
[Deposit 90,000,000 won]
Jiyoung Kim’s eyes became moist.
I am grateful that he was raised correctly, but I also received help, so I am grateful beyond words.
– Mom, isn’t work hard?
Actually, it was difficult.
I worked in the kitchen of a Baekban restaurant from early in the morning, and worked part-time at a convenience store in the afternoon. As I got older, I felt like I was dying.
– Do your work in moderation. At least quit one job.
I was very thankful for my son’s heart.
I thought that even if I didn’t have the fortune of money, the fortune of my children was as great as that of my children.
– I will take responsibility for my younger siblings’ future. If you need tuition, we’ll pay for it, and if there’s something you want to do, we’ll support it.
– So, don’t worry about money. Reduce your work. I wish my mom would prioritize her health over her money. I hope she lives a long and healthy life.
-You two, don’t worry too much about your retirement. Because I can now take responsibility for my family. No? Why are you crying? Don’t cry.
As she listened to her son’s story, her emotions rose.
“… Thank you. Just hearing these words gives me strength.”
– Huh. Don’t you have a passport, Mom?
Passport?
There was none.
Travel abroad?
I had never even been to Jeju Island, let alone traveled overseas.
I was born into a poor family and lived through hardships all my life.
– Make a passport. I will send you on a trip abroad soon.
“Really?”
– When have you ever seen me lie? Make it with your father.
“No. Are you okay? You don’t have to send me on an overseas trip. “Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
– That’s it. Be sure to make it. Think about which country you want to go to. I’ll send it to you anywhere, whether it’s Asia or Europe.
I ended the call.
‘You’re all grown up…’
Jiyoung Kim shed tears endlessly.
[3,682,000 Won]
I paid off the entire loan.
I ended my negative life and finally became a positive life.
Disgusting debt.
Terrible debt.
I was finally free from debt.
[Me: Thank you, son. Thanks to you, I was able to pay off all my debt.]
[Me: Thank you so, so much. Thanks to you, I see hope.]
[Eldest son: Yes. Quit work immediately.]
[Me: I understand. Thank you I will quit my part-time job at the convenience store.]
[Me: I often come down to the house. I’ll cook you a lot of delicious food.]
[Me: I love you]
Jiyoung Kim quit her part-time job at a convenience store.
She threw a small party. To commemorate her, her debt, her payoff, she had a pork belly party. She felt so good that she drank beer.
∴∴∴
Jinseong’s father, a Jew, drove a forklift at a factory.
The main job of the Jews was as a forklift. When he was free, he organized the warehouse or helped with production.
Work at work wasn’t easy.
It wasn’t the work that was difficult, but dealing with people.
‘Whoa, you damn bastard…’
She had to endure the young boss’s informal language and sarcasm.
‘후우- 개년의 새끼…’
I had to laugh away the young boss’s girlfriend’s cries.
‘Whoa, you two bastards…’
I was furious inside because of the bald manager who couldn’t do his job.
The bald manager was the young boss’s uncle, and he was a very poor person.
“Did you know that my son entered a university in the Seoul area this time? Well, he bought me a suit because he got money for tutoring.”
“Hehe, my daughter is making a fuss about sending me on an overseas trip. Uproar. Thanks to her, she now has a Vietnamese store.”
“Apartment prices have doubled. “I hope it goes up 2 to 3 times more in the future.”
I heard my co-workers bragging.
Bragging about your children, bragging about your grandchildren, bragging about money, etc.
If it were like before, I would have been so envious that my stomach would have hurt.
But now, I wasn’t past of my colleagues’ boasting at all.
‘I also received a lot of pocket money from my eldest son.’
These days, I was receiving over 300,000 won per month from my eldest son.
In some months, I was receiving more than 500,000 won.
‘Our eldest son is truly a dutiful son. A filial son.’
Not long ago, my eldest son paid off a debt worth 90 million won.
Thanks to this, her wife relieved her burden and quit her part-time job at a convenience store.
– Father.
While I was driving a forklift, my eldest son got a call.
“Uh? Why?”
– Do you work?
“Uh. “I’m driving a forklift.”
-They said the new Sorrento will be released later.
“Really?!”
The Jews were elevated.
-Yes. I asked you to leave it in front of my house, so please check it after work. Please contact me if you have any problems.
Hehe- heh, heh- thank you. Thank you very much. Have a nice ride. No. “I’ll come visit you in the evening to break in the car.”
– Great. Please come. If you come, I will buy you octopus shabu-shabu. I ate it a while ago, and it was really delicious.
“Great, good.”
I couldn’t control my laughter.
Her shoulders shook.
I was so happy.
I was happy to receive Sorrento as a gift from her eldest son, and I was really happy to eat octopus shabu-shabu together.
‘As expected, the eldest son is the best. The best.’
The Jew smiled throughout the work.
“What’s good?”
“Your complexion is bright?”
My co-workers were curious and asked.
“My eldest son bought me a car.”
I couldn’t be satisfied without bragging.
That evening.
I left the fond morning behind and drove the Sorento. I went to my eldest son’s house and ate shabu-shabu.
The next morning.
I drove the Sorento to work. His colleagues couldn’t help but envy his new horse.
‘I’m happy.’
As of today, the young boss’s informal language and sarcasm, the boss’s girlfriend’s taunts, and the boss’s bald uncle’s rudeness didn’t hurt me at all.
I just laughed it off empty-handedly, benevolently, and without any sense of offense.
∴∴∴
Jinseong’s younger sister, Yoo Seol, stroked the ring she received as a gift from her older brother.
‘It’s strange.’
Just wearing the ring made me feel at ease. Negative emotions decreased, and study stress also decreased.
The time to focus on studying has increased. Concentration has also improved significantly.
‘Older brother… Thank you…’
These days, Yu Seol likes her eldest brother. She liked her older brother who lost weight, she liked her older brother who was handsome, and she liked her older brother who gave her a lot of pocket money.
The only person in the world who understood her feelings was her eldest brother. The only person who said, ‘Don’t become a doctor’ was my eldest brother.
‘Older brother… Me… I’ll work hard… !’
Hehe- I burst out laughing. The front teeth stood out. Yu Seol studied really hard. She studied until her head started cramping.
She had dinner with her parents.
‘The atmosphere in the house has changed.’
My parents’ dark and tired complexion disappeared.
The darkness disappeared completely and laughter bloomed.
In particular, her mother changed noticeably.
‘Our Mrs. Kim was very picky… Her face was always full of fatigue… These days, you’re always smiling.’
It’s all thanks to my eldest brother.
I became brighter because my eldest brother paid off all the family debt.
If it weren’t for his older brother’s help, he would have been depressed.
[Me: Oppa.]
[Eldest brother: Why? Did you run out-of-pocket money?]
[Me: Huh! I wrote it all!]
[Eldest brother: ㅇㅋ I’ll send you 50,000 won.]
[Me: Wow! Come on brother! Chego!!]
In fact, I still had pocket money left.
However, with pocket money, more is more.
I had to get it when I could.
[Me: Oppa, thank you!!]
[Me: Thank you so much!!]
[Me: My brother is cheating!!]
The last KakaoTalk message I sent was my true intention.
∴∴∴
“I want people around me to be happy…”
I hope the people around me are healthy.
I hope everything goes well.
[Hope Tree: 6/100]
I gave water to the tree of hope.
“Uhhhhh-“
I looked at the stocks. He smiled very darkly and sinisterly.
[KSO Co., Ltd.]
[Investment amount: 184,081,500 won]
[Share quantity: 107,650 shares]
[Purchase price: 1,710 won]
I scrapped Sorento on installments.
Avante was postponed to next opportunity.
The loan amount of 35 million won was not even repaid.
I invested the entire amount in stocks.
‘Is the car important? ‘Stocks are important, right?’
It was more than four times.
It was impossible to miss a big event that was more than four times the size.
[Me: Ahyoung. I bought my brother’s stock.]
[Ayoung Choi: Huh? Really?]
[Ayoung Choi: What stocks did you buy?]
[Ayoung Choi: Please share 〉_〈]
[Me: With bare mouth?]
[Me: If you do something pretty, I’ll let you know haha]
