Chapter 7 Young & Rich

You don't have to work if you have a lot of money. Money, not people, can make things work. $100 million. An amount that allows you to live luxuriously for the rest of your life without working. There are many super-rich people in the world, but if you own $100 million at 30, it fits the world's young & rich. ‘This is how life is reversed.’ I never thought the day would come when I could be myself in words that I only heard about. ‘But what should I do for a living?’ Originally, I planned to stick with the company for as long as possible. Since I had 100 million dollars, I didn’t think I would be happy even if I received a salary in the future. In addition, there were not necessarily good things in my work life. “Assistant Kim, the hospital family is having dinner right now. Come over and say hello.” “Yes. Director! I will run right away.” 8 p.m. Sometimes, when I came home from work, I got a call saying that I was at a hospital dinner. When I was a new employee, I thought this was simple. The director of the hospital took good care of me. It’s to the point where I even invite them to dinner parties.’ The next day, I heard team leader Ahn calling me an ignorant idiot. “Why did the hospital director call you?” “Yes?” “Would you use it if the salesperson didn’t notice? Think carefully. What could be the problem?” Ahn’s first homework assignment. After thinking about it, I asked my motive and found out the answer. “It was a request to pay for a hospital dinner with our company corporate card.” “I just noticed.” “I knew what it meant by asking the above.” “I wish I could have figured it out somehow. Sales is what results prove. Anyway, go to a party, drink, and eat delicious meat. I thanked the doctors for inviting me and came out. How did your actions look to the doctors?” “It must have been considered an idiot. I did something stupid.” “Just because a request comes, it doesn’t mean that any hospital will do it for you. Each hospital has a grade that increases sales according to our company standards. The hospital that called you yesterday was of that grade.” “Understand” “What are you going to do right now?” “I will go to the restaurant where we had dinner yesterday and cancel the card the hospital director paid for, and pay again with our company corporate card.” “Okay. I hear you well. Sales do that. heartfelt… … .” “Are you sincere?” “Serious father. Do you know how much doctors who have studied all their lives and have not had much social life like flattery? Flattery is essential for salespeople.” I went to some good pharmaceutical companies, and ophthalmologists made a lot of money on vision correction surgery rather than cataracts, which were covered by medical insurance. So it wasn’t often that I paid for dinner. But when you go to the hospital, it’s not just the doctor you have to worry about. “Chief Kim.” “Yes. Nurse Yu. It’s been a while since you called. If there is something wrong with the machine you installed last time… … .” “That’s not it. You know the new bakery right next to our hospital? The bread there is very delicious.” Again, this is a social life problem. Why is the nurse making these private calls to the salesperson? The answer was because he wanted to eat free bread. When I was in my first year, whenever I went to the hospital three or four times a month, I would stop by the bakery first to buy bread, but I was not treated well. Even though I received the bread, they asked me if I had bought too much. ‘It’s strange. You say the bread is delicious? I buy this delicious bread, but why don’t I like it?’ The answer that doesn’t come out even if you think about it. If you like bread, why don’t you welcome me when I buy a lot of bread? The answer to this was also through Kim Sang-ki. “Pay the bakery in advance.” “Yes?” “Scratch a lot with the law knife. About 1 million won. So that the hospital nurses can stop by the bakery and pick up as much as they want whenever they want.” “ah… … .” Belated realization. On the one hand, I was a bit annoyed. “Wouldn’t it be nice to be honest with you?” “There is such a thing as face, right? If you pay attention, you will have to adjust yourself, my friend. That’s business.” The social life that a salesperson learns is profound. “Only make up to 1 million won at a time. If you do too much, you take it for granted. Look at the situation from time to time and do it. Because you have to receive as much as you give.” “Okay.” “And you take some bread too.” “Yes?” “From a company standpoint, how do you know who is eating the bread? Even if you know, that’s about understanding and looking at it. This is the reward of running a business in the field.” Business consists of entertainment and bribes. It was an amazing area that I couldn’t imagine for me who grew up without a piece of bread. However, the problems that could be solved with the law car belonged to the rather easy side. “Deputy Manager Kim, this time my daughter is graduating from college.” “Ah. Yes. Director.” “You know Chungbuk National University. Was the graduation day on February 15th? Do it at the Emerald Hall.” “Yep! I will attend and shine.” Attending the family event of the hospital director, delivering a bouquet to graduates whom he has never seen before, and acting as a cameraman for family photos. “This Saturday, Seoul National University graduates decided to gather and hold a small classical concert. I played the violin. I split my busy time to practice.” “The director himself? I will go.” He attends concerts, which is the director’s hobby, and listens to boring music very impressively. Of course, the company support team recorded the performance with a high-performance camcorder obtained by requesting it and delivered the data. There were times when I had to follow him to early football, mountain meetings, photo shoots, and even fishing on board. ‘Social life… … Deep, deep.’ It is good to try various hobbies along with the doctors, but as long as the job is a salesperson, most of them will be connected with flattery. It was a place where I was used to accepting even this, a nd made it my lifelong job, and tried to bury my bones. ‘What am I doing now?’ I slept soundly for a long time and woke up early. My mind was clear, and I felt refreshed as all my worries had completely disappeared. “Lululu.” Today, as usual, I rode my bike to work. The salary received from the company is not important, but the human indicators at hand. I wondered what my colleagues at the company thought about the coin. In the morning, I went to work as usual and went to work on foot to the nearest hospital. Around 11:40. Soon after lunch, a subordinate, Lee Jong-yeop, came to the table. “Senior, would you like to talk quietly with me for a moment?” Okay? OK.” I followed Lee Jong-yeop out of the office. And not to the rooftop, which I usually go to, but to the outside of the company. I looked behind the buildings to see if there were company employees around, and he said in a low voice. “Senior, since this is a senior, I’m telling you.” “Yes?” “Because I’m dating Yoo Hye-ri on the support team.” “Is it?” The couples within the company were roughly known. It seems that secret dating is succeeding. Young men and women somehow made love. “I heard it while talking with Hyeri. I’m my older brother. Oh, so what should I call you?” “Chaewon?” “Yes. Did you hear that he is returning to work next week?” eEx-wife We lived together for a year and fought every day. He can’t control his emotions even over trivial matters, and argues and fights to the end. She had to win to be freed from her intuition. The woman who made me feel the urge to go back to my college days, when I was poor but comfortable, returns to the company. “Are you going to return to work this time?” “Yes. The support staff knew ahead of time. I wonder if you know seniors. If you didn’t know, I thought I should let you know. I’m sorry if I said anything wrong.” “Nope. Thanks for letting me know.” The company was divided into a support team and a sales team. Even so, working at the same company could lead to face-to-face encounters or friction in many ways. At the time of the divorce, I knew roughly how many gossips she had made about me to the female employees at the company. From domestic violence to infidelity, jealousy, and personality breakdown. Did they even say that the structure of the brain is strange? The sales team people I worked with didn’t believe it, but there was a lot of gossip about me among the women on the support team. ‘Chaewon is coming back.’ My head wasn’t complicated or nervous. ‘You’ll have a little stomach ache because of me from now on.’ With money, there was a lot of work to be done. ‘I think I should wear nice clothes and buy a useful car.’ After work, I went to the men’s clothing section of a department store. “I want to buy several clothes.” “Yes. Try on the clothes you like first.” 3 hours passed quickly to buy a suit and choose a casual or training suit. As for the clothes, not only the length, but also the sleeves and sides were mended. I had never bought clothes at a department store, so I didn’t know about this service. How nice the feel of plain light gray sweatpants is. I like the design because I wear it. Does it feel like a young office worker dressed up and working out in New York’s Central Park?’ It seems to be common, but a slight design difference is felt greatly. I bought it because I liked the way I looked in the full-length mirror. In return for hard work, I felt good when I received a text message on my mobile phone. I became rich and lost the joy of a salary, but instead realized the joy of consumption. ‘It’s so nice.’ Also, buy a wallet and belt. It was the basic amount of hundreds of thousands of won to buy something. ‘How can other people buy such expensive items?’ Even if you have 100 million dollars, you feel burdened every time you take out your wallet. I still haven’t adapted to the money I spend, but I vividly recall my ex-wife’s angry voice. ‘Just buy it.’ You don’t know how many times I’ve heard that I was a moth while trying to save money. After that, I signed up for exercise to upgrade my life. A gym where you can do CrossFit and boxing together. I toured the facility with a coach with a strong physique and went through the registration process. “How many months would you like?” “First three months.” “Do you have any exercise experience?” “There is not.” “Then, to the beginner class. When are you going to come out?” “If possible, I would like to start today.” “Good. It happens that my time is empty, so change your clothes and come out right away.” I experienced hell for an hour. According to the set exercise routine, the coach follows you and runs and hits until you are out of breath. When I heard that Jo Soo-ah was working out, I expected it. Exercising hard meant fighting against myself every day and overcoming it. “Wow. It looks very difficult. Are you doing well?” “Okay?” “Yes. I usually just give up. Your will is great.” “… … .” The strength in his body was exhausted, but he forced himself to move as if dragging his feet. I have a lot of money, but it’s the first time I’ve ever spent like today, so the cost of registering for the gym was a waste. It seemed that the appearance seemed like a great evil to the coach. “Good. Just three more!”
