Chapter 358
Clank.
As soon as he got out of the car, Chief Ma Jonghyun scanned the place and looked at Yoo-hyun.
Yoo-hyun smiled brightly, but he turned his head away with a sour expression.
“Chief Park, did the truck break down?”
“Ah, yes. I’m sorry. We’ll fix it.”
Chief Park Chulhong gave the prepared answer and closed his eyes tightly.
He expected a burst of anger at any moment.
But surprisingly, Chief Ma Jonghyun suppressed his rage and said calmly.
“No, it happens. That’s why we brought this week’s work materials.”
“Chief, here are the defect analysis report and the work request form.”
Min Dalki, who always acted snobbish, even put on a humble face.
Chief Park Chulhong blinked his eyes at the unexpected behavior of the two men.
Then Yoo-hyun approached and looked at the work request form.
“The deadline is only three days away. We can’t do a week’s worth of work.”
“No, that’s not…”
Min Dalki hesitated as he met Chief Ma Jonghyun’s eyes.
Yoo-hyun mixed a gentle voice with a strong gaze and said.
“We’re not saying we won’t take it. Isn’t that right, Chief Ma?”
“…”
Chief Ma Jonghyun flinched as he listened.
What if he acted tough here?
Yoo-hyun was ready to clash with him once and for all.
He already had a scenario in his head.
But what was this?
The reaction was too radical.
“That’s right. Mr. Han is right. Min Chief, take out some of the quantity from Yeontae branch.”
Chief Ma Jonghyun nodded his head, and Min Dalki immediately reflected his opinion.
“Yes. I understand. Then we’ll set the target quantity at 40 percent, and we’ll match the rest. We can also reduce it further.”
“No, we have to do our job too.”
“That’s… right. Hahaha.”
Min Dalki laughed awkwardly and pretended to be nice.
Chief Ma Jonghyun’s expression didn’t look too bad either.
Did he think he was being recorded?
But that was too low for him.
Whatever the reason was, it was a good opportunity.
Yoo-hyun seized the chance and asked right away.
“Min Chief, I have a question.”
“What is it?”
“Think about it. Usually, the place that requests the work should hand over the materials. Isn’t this the right direction?”
“Hahaha. You must not know because you’re new, but this is how it’s always done.”
“Is that really so? I should contact my superiors…”
Yoo-hyun tried to bluff a little to shake him up.
Then Chief Ma Jonghyun panicked and answered.
“Min Chief, do that.”
“Yes. I understand.”
He should have been angry by now, considering his psychopathic personality trait.
But he gave in too easily again.
Min Dalki was the same.
He didn’t know what was going on, but there was no reason not to eat the rice cake that rolled in.
Yoo-hyun quickly brought up the next topic.
“And one more thing.”
“What? Is there more?”
Yoo-hyun continued to speak to Min Dalki Chief who asked in surprise.
“Yes. Normally, audits are done by the audit team. Why are you doing audits in the work team?”
“Huh? That’s because…”
“Maybe it’s because it’s too different from what I know. This also…”
Before Yoo-hyun could scare him, Chief Ma Jonghyun made a decision without asking or checking anything.
“Min Chief, just divide the materials and check only the performance.”
“Yes. I understand.”
Min Dalki nodded again.
“…”
The workers of Yeontae branch who were watching were speechless.
Yoo-hyun shouted inwardly with joy and spat out one more word.
“There’s more.”
“What is it this time?”
Chief Ma Jong-hyun looked annoyed.
Yoo-hyun did not avoid his eyes and answered.
“It’s about our attendance. We need to get permission for holidays and vacations now…”
As he spoke longer, Chief Ma and Min Dal-gi looked more and more exhausted.
But they listened to him until the end.
And they came to the same conclusion.
“Just do it.”
They seemed like they would even take off their pants if he asked them to.
That’s how friendly Chief Ma was.
No matter how much he abused his power, he was very pleased with him right now.
Yoo-hyun expressed his honest feelings.
“Thank you, Chief. Thanks to you, the Mokpo branch and the Yeontae branch can have a win-win situation.”
“R-right? Win-win is good, win-win.”
For a moment, Chief Ma smiled awkwardly and lifted his lips.
Instead of dropping a bomb as he expected, a warm breeze blew in the Yeontae branch.
“Wow.”
The Yeontae branch staff who saw him could not close their mouths in surprise.
After Chief Ma left.
Yoo-hyun sat down for a moment and sorted out his thoughts.
Why was he so submissive?
Did Chief Ma have a lot of trouble behind him?
That was the most reasonable thought.
It was natural to be careful when he had a lot to lose.
He got it too easily, but anyway, the important thing was the result.
Thanks to him, Yoo-hyun could now relax.
He finished his schedule lightly and Kang Jong-ho, who was sitting next to him, asked him casually.
His face was full of curiosity.
“Mr. Han, did you work in the audit team or something?”
“Something like that.”
“Ah, so that’s how you knew so well.”
It was impossible to know all the situations that were going around in the audit team.
The business units were different, and the work they did was completely different.
But there was no need to explain it in detail, so Yoo-hyun just nodded his head.
“Well, something like that.”
“It was really amazing. How did you solve it so easily?”
Kang Jong-ho clapped his hands and expressed his joy.
Then Jo Gi-jeong came over and joined in.
“That’s right. It’s much better to be here than in other factories.”
“Of course. No interference, easy work, and we can go outside. It’s the best.”
Kang Jong-ho smiled belatedly and revealed his feelings.
Yoo-hyun had already thought what they were thinking now.
Swish.
When he checked the time, it was almost the end of work hours.
It was time to go play golf, so Yoo-hyun got up from his seat.
“I’ll go first.”
“Okay. Mr. Han, have a good time.”
Then Jo Gi-jeong and Kang Jong-ho greeted him.
It was a trivial greeting, but they seemed new to him because they didn’t care much about other people’s work.
“Yes. Have a good time too.”
When Yoo-hyun turned around, he heard Chief Park Cheol-hong’s voice from behind him.
“Mr. Han, good job.”
It was the first time he heard such a friendly sound from his mouth.
Yoo-hyun turned his head and smiled wryly.
“Buy me some strong liquor next time.”
Then Chief Park lifted his lips slightly.
He could have laughed out loud, but he still seemed awkward with this kind of light conversation.
This was also a problem that time would solve.
It didn’t matter if he didn’t change it anyway.
Thud thud.
Maybe it was because he had unloaded a heavy burden?
Yoo-hyun’s steps toward the golf course looked unusually light today.
It’s hard to feel the strength of a typhoon when you’re in the center of it.
The same goes for being in the center of change.
Even if there is a big change, you can’t tell what impact it has until time passes.
This was the story of the half-workers at Yeontae’s workplace right now.
They spent the next day with a nervous feeling.
The same thing happened the next day.
And on the day after that, they finally realized for sure that things had changed.
Beep beep beep beep.
The sound of the alarm in the break room and the truck from Mokpo’s workplace on the CCTV screen were the starting point of their realization.
Kang Jong-ho, who was on CCTV duty, licked his lips.
“They’re really coming to pick it up.”
“Yeah. Look at the back of the truck. They also loaded this week’s reassembled products.”
Cho Ki-jung, who was next to him, felt uneasy too.
Yoo-hyun, who was making coffee in the corner, casually said.
“Let’s go get it. I think it’s only right to help them unload.”
Then the half-workers looked at Yoo-hyun with a dumbfounded expression.
Park Chul-hong, the team leader, turned his head away and muttered.
“I don’t think that’s something a junior should say…”
There were two people in the truck that Yoo-hyun had never seen before.
One of them, an older man, introduced himself as a member of the reassembly team at Mokpo’s workplace.
That was the end of their conversation.
They didn’t do anything like conducting an unexpected audit or making other demands like before.
They just delivered the defective products that needed to be reassembled next week.
They even showed some courtesy.
The older man who had unloaded the boxes himself handed over a document.
“Here’s the work order. Please check it.”
“Oh, yes. Here it is.”
Park Chul-hong, the team leader, felt the drastic change and signed it.
The people from Mokpo’s workplace finished their mission and left with this week’s reassembled products.
It used to take at least eight hours to receive the goods while being bullied by them, but now it only took 20 minutes.
The half-workers at Yeontae’s workplace were stunned by the remarkable change.
Cho Ki-jung, who was looking at the stacked boxes, gave a hollow laugh and said.
“Junior Yu, you’re really amazing.”
“That’s right. I can’t believe this is happening.”
Kang Jong-ho looked at Yoo-hyun with an admiring expression.
Yoo-hyun said to the two people who were making small talk that they didn’t usually do.
“Let’s finish quickly and rest.”
The half-workers who met eyes laughed softly.
A few days passed and the weekend came to Yeontae-ri.
Clang.
Yoo-hyun came out of his dormitory wearing a neat collar T-shirt and beige cotton pants.
The cool autumn breeze was blowing, making it a perfect day to go out.
He still had some time before his appointment, so he walked leisurely.
That’s when he came out to the road that connected the village and his dormitory.
He heard someone greeting him and turned around. It was Lee Young-nam, the manager.
“Junior Yu, good morning.”
“Manager Lee, hello.”
He felt happy every time he saw him now, so Yoo-hyun greeted him warmly.
Lee Young-nam, who had a pleasant smile on his face, looked at Yoo-hyun’s outfit and lightly joked.
“Haha. Where are you going?”
“Yes. I have an appointment.”
Then he casually asked what he had been curious about.
Yoo-hyun had told him to wait for the results, so he couldn’t ask directly and beat around the bush.
“Right. How’s work going?”
“Yes. It’s going very well.”
Yoo-hyun answered confidently as he had handled Yeontae’s workplace well.
The relationship with Mokpo’s workplace was smoothly settled, and he got everything he could get out of them.
There were no more unreasonable audits, and attendance issues were also neatly resolved.
The half-workers could now go out freely on weekends without worrying about Mokpo’s workplace.
Lee Young-nam’s help also played a part in this easy resolution of work.
Yoo-hyun expressed his gratitude in his words.
“It’s all thanks to you, manager. Thank you for your support.”
“Haha. Support? Well, I guess so. The fishing spot has been developed a lot recently.”
Why did he suddenly bring up the fishing spot?
He tilted his head slightly, but he understood since he was very interested in developing the fishing spot.
Yoo-hyun gave him a thumbs up and responded positively.
“That’s right. The village seems to be getting better and better.”
“It’s thanks to you.”
“What have I done? It’s all thanks to you, village head. And to the people of the village as well.”
“Hahaha. You are really devoted to the village’s development, even if it means…”
The village head, Lee Young-nam, laughed heartily and was about to say something when Yoo-hyun interrupted him with his sharp words.
