Real Man-Chapter 362:

Chapter 362

Yoo-hyun asked with a smile.

Haha. Boss, arent you too comfortable?

Yeah. Honestly, Im too comfortable. I shouldnt be like this, but what can I do about this boring stuff.

Jo Kijung also chimed in at Park Chulhongs words.

He looked just as comfortable.

He didnt even bother to go back to his dormitory because the factory was too easy.

Thats right. Theres nothing fun to do.

Right. Im thinking of playing golf or something like that, following Han Jooim.

Kang Jongho, who joined in now, was the same.

He had nothing to do, so he hated all the exercises he did with a stick.

Yoo-hyun was dumbfounded, but he understood their feelings.

He had been worried about having nothing to do in the past.

The situation was different, but the feeling seemed similar. Yoo-hyun said.

Then why dont you look for something fun to do this time?

Im having fun now. Im eating, playing, fighting, and making money. Theres no reason not to be happy.

But youre bored, arent you?

Yoo-hyun hit the nail on the head, and Jo Kijung shook his head.

His tangled long hair seemed to show his dull mood.

Sigh. I tried this and that, but nothing worked. I dont feel like it, I dont.

You looked really happy when you installed CCTV before.

Yoo-hyun scratched his heart, and Jo Kijung laughed as if he couldnt believe it.

Should I install another CCTV? Hehe.

I had fun then too, but its meaningless now. The audit doesnt come anymore.

Kang Jongho also snickered and then lowered his head.

He didnt like to suffer for no reason, no matter how fun it was.

Yoo-hyun saw the passion in their hearts from their conversation.

He thought that a small spark would be enough to make them burn.

What would be a meaningful and enjoyable job that could highlight their strengths?

It would be nice if Park Chulhong could join in too.

Yoo-hyun came up with an idea and said.

Then how about trying this?

What? Do you have more tricks?

Of course. What it is

The people laughed at Yoo-hyuns explanation.

Among them, Jo Kijung, who was most interested, asked incredulously.

Han Jooim, whats in your head?

Ill take that as a compliment.

Yoo-hyun shrugged and smiled.

There wasnt much to do at the Yeontae factory now, but there was something.

They had to reassemble the defective products that came from the Mokpo factory.

It was easy when Jo Kijung was there, but it took a lot of work when he went on vacation or left.

What Yoo-hyun said was a way to automate the reassembly process.

Strictly speaking, he didnt provide an idea, he just threw out a topic.

But the goal was clear.

The simple goal of making it easier next time gave value to the work.

The people moved naturally because it was a necessary job.

They were all experienced people who could think for themselves and come up with ideas.

This wasnt a place where ideas were evaluated and actions were restricted.

The free space where no one interfered unleashed their creativity.

Thats how the dry firewood started to burn again.

Soon after, there was tension in the break room again.

There was a monitor that had been repaired a while ago on the floor of the break room.

Jo Kijung rested his chin on his fist and said.

Hmm, how should I do this?

It would be much easier if we just display the manual we wrote by hand on the monitor.

Jo Kijung nodded at Kang Jonghos opinion.

Well, its not hard to put a computer on the line. But its not easy to automate this.

Not unless we make a robot.

Then

The two exchanged opinions back and forth.

They looked very serious.

Yoo-hyun left the two who were focused and went out of the break room.

The whole factory was lit up.

Kiiing.

Yoo-hyun asked Park Cheolhong, who was checking the conveyor belt.

Is it working well?

Of course. I checked it regularly.

Boss, you look excited.

Yoo-hyun joked as he bent down to inspect the seam of the conveyor belt.

But the answer he got was more serious than he expected.

Im a bit excited.

Why? This is work too.

Its different. Its not something unnecessary or forced. It has meaning.

You must like your job.

When Yoo-hyun asked casually, Park Cheolhong touched the operating part of the conveyor belt below and revealed his true feelings.

I came here to work, not to play.

Yoo-hyun looked at him speechlessly.

He was very diligent in doing his job, even though no one appreciated or praised him.

He remembered that he was the same when he wrote work logs or recorded results.

He shone when he did what he liked.

Like the two people in the break room.

Dont you like making money while having fun?

Yoo-hyun asked slyly, and Park Cheolhong got up and smiled.

I cant do that forever. I wanted to leave something behind here too.

Is that running the conveyor belt?

Not exactly, but its cool. It feels like I own this factory.

Yoo-hyun didnt know what he had done in the past.

But he felt sure that what he said now was not a lie.

He still had passion for his work in his heart.

Even though he had been demoted to this remote place.

Youre admirable.

Yoo-hyun smiled and said, and Park Cheolhong asked with a puzzled expression.

Why do you talk like youre the boss?

Well, what does it matter if Im a supervisor or a boss? Give me your card.

Yoo-hyun shrugged and reached out his hand.

Why do you need the card?

It looks like we need some stuff to fix this. Ill buy them. I want to do some work for once.

Hold on. Dont just buy anything

Park Cheolhong frowned and wrote down some things on a note.

He was always attentive to small details.

Take your time. Its not urgent. And say hello to the manager for me.

And now he knew how to take care of others too.

Not enough to greet them personally, though.

Haha. Okay. Ill be back soon.

Yoo-hyun said goodbye with a smile.

He got on a yellow bicycle with a basket and left.

It was a bicycle that Choi Jeong-bok, the head of Yeonseung-ri village, had given him a while ago, telling him to hurry to the golf practice range after work.

Ring.

As he rode the bicycle along the village road, he took in the scenery.

He felt the autumn deepening as he saw the ripe persimmons on the trees.

Seeing these small changes was also a joy to him.

Creak.

As he opened the door and entered, he saw people sitting on the sofa, having a heated discussion.

On one side, there were Lee Young-nam, the head of Lee village, Bae Yong-hwan, and Bae Yong-seok. On the other side, there were Jeon Il-soo, the head of Yeonseung-ri village, and Choi Jeong-bok.

He had never met Jeon Il-soo in person, but he could easily guess that he was Jeon Il-hos brother by his resemblance.

He was going to just say hello and leave, but it didnt look like that kind of atmosphere.

It was when Yoo-hyun was about to step back.

Lee Young-nam, who noticed Yoo-hyun belatedly, asked in surprise.

Wow. How did Han Ju-im know to come here?

Hahaha. I brought him here.

Jeon Il-ho laughed loudly and shouted, making Lee Young-nam look embarrassed. He invited Yoo-hyun to the seat of honor.

Well, I was going to tell you when everything was done. Dont be like that and sit down.

No. I just came to say hello.

Yoo-hyun tried to politely decline, but Jeon Il-ho grabbed him by the arm and dragged him.

Brother, dont be like that and sit down. I have something to show you.

Yeah. Sit down. Its perfect that Han Ju-im is here.

Bae Yong-hwan agreed with him, and Bae Yong-seok and Choi Jeong-bok gestured to him.

Yoo-hyun had no choice but to sit in the empty seat.

Jeon Il-soo nodded at Yoo-hyun with a grave voice.

Mr. Lee, is this the guy you and Il-ho talked about so passionately?

Hehe. Yes. This is the guy who planned all this.

Lee Young-nam said with a smile, making Yoo-hyun ask incredulously.

Mr. Lee, what are you talking about?

Hey, didnt you plan everything from the fishing spot development to the village business?

No, thats

Yoo-hyun couldnt help but chuckle as he answered. It was such a ridiculous thing to say.

Jeon Il-ho cut in abruptly.

Thats right. We couldnt have done it without my brother. The park golf was amazing.

I just

Yes. The fishing spot too. I never dreamed that you would link it with a camping site.

Bae Yong-seok, who had been managing the fishing spot recently, chimed in.

At the same time, Jeon Il-ho gave Yoo-hyun a thumbs up and exclaimed.

Wow. Youre really my brother.

Then Bae Yong-seok muttered with a sour expression.

I was friends with him first

Yoo-hyun was speechless.

All he did was talk about the fishing spot at a drinking party and mention park golf while playing golf.

That wasnt to help them, but his own personal interest.

The content wasnt specific at all, and he didnt help with the progress either.

He just watched what they were doing in the village.

He tried to convey this thought, but Bae Yong-hwan added another word.

Its impossible to do all this without knowing the characteristics of both villages well. Honestly, I was skeptical at first too.

Then Lee Young-nam clapped his hands and shouted cheerfully.

Right, right. I knew it when Han Ju-im first showed his ambition to grow the village.

What ambition are you talking about?

The conversation was so chaotic that he didnt know where to start arguing.

Then Jeon Il-soo lost his appetite.

Tsk. Im jealous.

Jealous? Its thanks to Han Ju-im that were doing this together. Lets forget our grudges now.

Yeah, I guess so.

Lee Young-nam reached out his hand and Jeon Il-soo grabbed it firmly.

It suddenly became like a North-South summit meeting.

The story went on without any rhyme or reason, making it hard for even Yoo-hyun, who was quick-witted, to catch up.

Choi Jeong-bok handed Yoo-hyun some documents with a bewildered expression on his face.

I wrote these documents to get support from the military, like you said. Take a look.

When did I say that?

Yoo-hyun blinked his eyes, and Jeon Il-ho leaned his face forward and spoke loudly as if to make him hear everything.

Hey, you said that other regions get local government support when they build park golf courses.

Thats just what I said as it is.

As Yoo-hyun waved his hand, Director Lee Young-nam said with a serious expression.

Mr. Han, being too humble can be poisonous. I know youre busy saving the factory and the village, but dont be too modest. Then Ill be too sorry.

Yeah. You dont have to do that. I know your work.

Director Lee Young-nams words were automatically followed by Baeyonghwans words.

This is something.

Yoo-hyun gave up on making up for the situation as it was too overwhelming.

He didnt think he would get anywhere here.

Instead, he took the document that Choi Jeong-bok handed over.

<Haenam County Regional Tourism Development Support Fund Application>

The report with a plausible title covered a lot of content.

Especially, what caught his eye was the equipment expansion of the park golf course.

It was a matter that the villagers had requested a lot, such as installing street lights for night lighting or putting up safety fences on the cliff side.

It didnt look bad to have temporary toilets in between.

The business item linked with the fishing spot was also good.

Thats why they said that.

Yoo-hyun understood their words after skimming through the overall content.
