Episode 22. Catch the export boat.(4)

“What are you doing?”

Yeon-hee’s father and Kim Yu-han laughed.

“You don’t need to be nervous. It will not be difficult.”

Not a difficult request?

he looked at me and asked

“Advertiser. Can I have a meal with Yeonhee from time to time in the future?”

“Our Yeonhee is like a celebrity, and now she lives alone in Seoul. I don’t have many friends, so I’m really lonely. It’s just that the advertiser is the same age as Yeon-hee and seems like a good person. ”

It was a very unexpected request.

“..With Mr. Yeonhee, I think we can make friends quickly. Why do you even need me?”

“Even though Yeonhee looks so bright now, not long ago, she couldn’t speak properly at home. I went to audition dozens of times to become a celebrity, but after all of them failed, that’s what happened.”

“It was.”

“Yeonhee, however, realized her dream thanks to the MP3 player advertisement entrusted to her by the advertiser. After that, his face became known quite a bit, and now he signed a trainee contract with a big entertainment agency. It’s all thanks to the advertisers.”

“It’s not because of me, but because Yeonhee did well.”

Kim Yu-han shook his head.

“no. It seems to me that my daughter is doing well, but where is the world where talent alone makes her successful? No matter how good a talent is, if there is no opportunity, it is buried. The advertiser gave me that precious opportunity. It hurts my ears to hear how much my daughter talks about advertisers these days. haha”

“I am also grateful to Yeonhee for filming the advertisement well. Thanks to that, our MP3 players are also selling well.”

“Then the advertiser didn’t feel burdened by our Yeonhee, was it?”

Your uncle is taller than you look.

Knowing that the conversation was going in one direction, there was no way out of it.

“..it is.”

“Okay. Then the advertiser and my daughter sometimes eat together. I’m handing over all of my boat to this boss Ho-jae Kang.”

profit.

Then, after hearing the car stop in front of the house, the doorbell rang immediately.

Ding Dong. Ding Dong.

“Who are you at this hour?”

Kim Yu-han got up from his seat and went out to the front door.

After a while, the person who came in with him was the Weasel of Sucheonghoe.

When the weasel saw Yuhan Kim, it burst into anger.

“Chief Kim! Is it okay to do this all of a sudden?”

Kim Yu-han answered with a smirk.

“It’s my heart to pass my boat. Did you add even a penny to growing my belly at the water hearing meeting?”

“Nevertheless. What do you do with a sudden change of business? You have to give me time to prepare.”

Yeon-hee’s father replied with a snort.

“When you cut off a transaction, do you stop listening to the other party’s circumstances? No. I just did the same.”

The weasel hesitated, not knowing what to say, and then bit her lip.

“Chief Kim. Why is this all of a sudden? If the price is a problem, we can raise it up to ten percent.”

“Do you think I’m telling you to eat ten percent more? I’m just doing this because I don’t like your hearing.”

“.. Mr. Kim. If that’s the case, you know that we’re completely lost after our hearing, right?”

“Of course. Do you think I am doing this without being prepared for that?”

Kim Yu-han showed a calm face despite his threats, and this time, he looked at us and growled.

“Can you guys take responsibility for this? Now I only know that if something goes wrong, Kim Yu-han, you are responsible.”

Miraculous.

Why do you get so hot just looking at that weasel’s face?

“You don’t care, we’ll take responsibility. President Kim will also make our lives better, so there is no need to worry.”

The weasel made an astonished look.

“This little crab. It’s been like this before. How old are you?”

“So, how old are you, and do you keep talking to my uncle?”

“..done. Anyway, it’s you, Kim, and you’re going to regret it all. Be mindful!”

After saying that, the weasel left as if running away.

My uncle looked at Kim Yu-han and said.

“Because of us, you took the lead with the Su-Cheonghoe, so we will take responsibility. We will receive the transaction volume every year, so you don’t have to worry too much.”

Kim Yu-han smiled with an innocent face.

“Even if my stomach looks like this, it is famous for its good quality. Even if it goes against the hearing, there is no reason to starve to death. You don’t have to worry about this transaction as I did it first because I didn’t like the hearing.”

“It is because of the burden. As you said, the boss said that because the quality of the boat was good, we wanted to keep buying it.”

“If that’s the case, I’ll hand it over to you. haha.”

Then I intervened.

“president. Do you have any other orchards who can hand over to us?”

“Another orchard?”

“yes. As far as exports are concerned, the larger the quantity, the better.”

Although rumors were circulating that we were big hands.

Yet the majority of the orchards have not moved.

“The pears shipped from our orchard alone must be over 200 million. Can you afford it?”

“It’s possible. We have quite a bit of capital. That’s why I said earlier that my uncle takes responsibility and accepts the supplies.”

Kim Yu-han made a surprised expression.

“Our advertisers are really talented. I heard you are still nineteen, is that true?”

“Nineteen is right.”

“her. I was proud that I made quite a bit of money at that age, but it wasn’t in the billions.”

“I was lucky.”

“Where does business depend on luck? You don’t have to be humble. By the way, the advertiser says they can afford it, so I’ll look into it more. There are a few bosses besides me who are tired of hearings.”

“It’s not something that’s given away for free. You are our customers, and we thank you.”

Thanks to President Kim Yu-han, we were able to obtain an additional 150 tons.

Having secured a total of 300 tons of ships, up to an additional 150 tons from the 150 tons handed over by President Kim Yu-han, we made an appointment with the person in charge of ‘Crene’, an American fruit distribution company.

As the appointment time drew near, Uncle asked with a nervous face.

“Are you really good at English? Shouldn’t we be calling an interpreter now?”

“You are doing well. Don’t worry and do whatever you want.”

“I get it. I believe only in you.”

When we arrived at the meeting point, the Krene representative was waiting for us.

“Hello. nice to meet you.

On the outside, he looked like a Korean.

It’s an American company, so I thought it would be American.

However, fluent Korean came out of his mouth.

“hello. This is ‘James Hahn’. I don’t speak Korean, so please speak comfortably.”

I was momentarily disappointed.

Still, it’s good that I don’t have to use an interpreter.

My uncle and the representative started negotiating.

“How much stock have you secured?”

“About 300 tons. “

“Isn’t there a lot of stock?”

“You said it was because you got it in a hurry. We expect to be able to get more than double the deal next year.”

“All right. Let’s talk about an important price. How much do you think?”

“How about 1800 won per kilogram?”

“Too expensive. At that price, we don’t have to buy it.”

“then..”

Uncle’s face hardened when the price was negotiated for a while and came down to 1,550 won per kilogram.

“Isn’t it even 1550 won? As far as I know, the hearing session would not have been priced below 1550 won.”

The officer shook his head.

“At the hearing, we lowered the price a lot this time. It costs 1450 won per kilogram.”

“1450 won? At that price, there is almost no profit. It can’t be that long.”

“If you are unsure, ask the Suhyeonghoe.”

Because my uncle has an absurd face.

Apologizing to James, he dragged his uncle to the table next to him.

“uncle. What’s wrong?”

“These scumbags are determined to persuade us to death. To ask for 1,450 won means we are almost giving up our profits, but we have no reason to do so.”

“..So you’ve been fighting with money, right?”

These don’t deviate from expectations until the very end.

Then I can’t lose either.

“uncle. We call it 1350 won.”

“Are you okay? For 1,350 won, you lose about 50 million won. Absolutely not. It is only then that it is good to recognize large domestic supermarkets.”

“it’s okay. even if it hurts a bit But are the goods paid in dollars? Or do you accept it in Korean Won?”

“It takes a long time to do what we ask, but we usually get it in won. If it was received in dollars, it would be useless right now.”

“Then ask for dollars this time.”

“Are you taking it in dollars? Is there any use in that god? I’ll have to change it back to won anyway, but it’s going to cost more money to exchange money, isn’t it?”

“It’s not a loss. Rather, it will bring us great benefits.”

“Does that make sense? How do losses turn into gains if you take them in dollars?”

“That… you will find out in time. So trust me and just call me 1350 won. Even if I lose, I lose my money, right?”

“..I get it. Don’t resent me later.”

“I am not resentful. Oh, if we win the contract, will the volume of hearings decrease?”

As I was signing the contract, I thought of a good way to water the weasel too.

“Before you ask for 1,350 won, there is only one condition.”

“What conditions?”

“On the condition that we do not disclose the terms of our contract to other competitors.”

“Is such a condition necessary?”

“If our stock goes in, won’t weasel be in trouble? If you don’t know the cause, it will be even more difficult.”

My uncle looked at me with a look that said, ‘Are there all these evil guys?’

“How did Hansoo get caught by someone like you? This is the first time I have felt pity for him.”

As soon as my uncle offered 1,350 won to the Krene representative, the negotiations were over.

As I left the meeting room, my uncle said.

“Hey, did you know that James’ mouth was ripped off earlier?”

“yes. I can see what I like.”

“okay. Wait that much we did crazy. Oh, if it was good, would you have looked like that in front of us?”

“Again, I wasn’t crazy.”

My uncle sent me a smirk in his eyes.

“I sold an item that cost 1,500 won for 1,350 won, but what is that crazy thing?”

“In three months, you will know why I did it today.”

1997 IMF foreign exchange crisis.

Starting with the bankruptcy of the 14th-ranked Hanba Group in the business world, large corporations such as the 26th-ranked Summi Group entered into court management.

It was a dark period when thousands of small and medium-sized enterprises went bankrupt.

At this time, the country’s foreign currency depletes and the exchange rate more than doubles.

By the time our ship price came in, Korea would have been swaying from the IMF foreign exchange crisis.

The transaction, which looked like a loss of 50 million won, will bring a net profit of over 300 million won.
