Chapter 142
He knew very well how to dismantle it.
It’s just that I’m not used to it because I haven’t dismantled it myself.
Nevertheless, I took the prepared sashimi knife in my hand.
“Shall we start dismantling?”
Because it was such a huge northern bluefin tuna, it seemed difficult to dismantle it.
Swoop! Swipe!
It is difficult and difficult for the average person to dismember a huge northern bluefin tuna.
However, Minjun was dismantling it so easily.
Ordinary people have incomparable strength, and when it’s not possible, even use telekinesis lightly, so dismantling is being done as desired.
It would be nice if Minjun could do it all by himself, but he was assisted by two female robots, Eve.
After Minjun cut each part, he washed them clean and wiped them dry with a towel.
“Even though it takes a little effort, it’s more fun than I thought, right?”
After cutting the head and body of a huge northern bluefin tuna, I washed and dried them and cut them into appropriate sizes.
Then I put it in a large airtight container that I had prepared.
I collected the discarded things I didn’t need separately.
Shortly thereafter, a huge northern bluefin tuna was completely dismembered.
After instructing the two female robot Eves to clean up, they took out a plate from one side and set it aside.
I used a sashimi knife to open the sashimi and put it on a plate.
It’s not good if it deteriorates, so I quickly wrapped it up and put it in the magical space of the bracelet artifact silver.
“It’s good because I can take it out and eat it later.”
Soon after, the last dish was served with tuna sashimi.
After instructing the second female robot, Eve, to clean up, they moved to the dining table with a plate of tuna sashimi.
Served with wasabi and soy sauce.
It was like eating only tuna sashimi, so I prepared rice, cabbage kimchi, white kimchi, green onion kimchi, and fried shrimp udon and pickled radish.
FYI, the shrimp tempura udon was delivered from a restaurant.
It was a snack on its own, but it was very filling.
A lot of people are suffering from the influence of Corona 19, but Minjun was enjoying the comfort of his life like this.
If someone saw Minjun like this, they would have been very envious.
“I’m eating tuna sashimi, but should I roll wheat and drink it too?”
It would be nice to drink somaek mixed with a bottle of soju and a bottle of beer.
I wasn’t going out anyway, so I didn’t think it would be bad.
“It’s a bit like a daytime drink, but let’s drink it because there is also very fresh tuna sashimi.”
If possible, rather than eating alone, he specially called the slave Kim Yong-min.
ran good
“Chief, thank you for inviting me.”
“okay. I just needed to know that.”
In this way they began to eat what was served together.
In particular, wheat was also rolled and shared.
Eating together is better than eating alone.
At this time, Min-jun’s older sister Park Mi-ae was in trouble while drinking coffee at Armis coffee shop located along the main street of Gangnam Station.
I managed it well and made sales and profits, so I boldly expanded my business.
It was a bit overkill, but I thought it was an opportunity and made it to the 5th store.
He was busy running six Armis coffee shops, including the head office, but instead, sales and profits were high.
It was fun to make money, but sales suddenly decreased significantly due to the impact of Corona Virus 19.
“Oh, it’s ruined because of COVID-19.”
It can’t be said to be completely bankrupt, but as the number of customers drastically decreased, there was little left after paying labor costs and paying monthly rent.
Other neighboring stores were closed because they were not doing business.
Park Mi-ae would have been able to withstand the drop in sales if she hadn’t expanded her business unreasonably.
But now I felt as if I had entered a tunnel so long that I couldn’t see at all.
Corona virus 19 was not decreasing, but rather was expanding.
I couldn’t help but worry.
After borrowing 5 billion won in business funds from his younger brother, Min-joon, he did not visit him.
It was all about calling once or twice a month.
Words were borrowed, and in fact, I received 5 billion won in support, but if I extended my hand again, it was really shameless.
It was also learned through the news that he bought and held 20 million online virtual currency bit chains, and then sold them when they skyrocketed, earning astronomical profits.
“As expected, this is my younger brother, Minjun. It’s really great.”
I even paid an astronomical income tax, and I appeared on the news and said a little nonsense.
When I presented the KF94 Yellow Dust Mask to Beauty anchor Ha Na Kang, I thought she was interested.
But that wasn’t it.
It clearly warned of the dangers of coronavirus 19.
It was said that the pandemic, the KF94 yellow dust mask, the Chinese coronavirus, vaccines, and treatments would be important issues.
At the time, I didn’t think much of it and passed on.
“Why are you saying that on the news?”
However, as the year changed and on January 20, 2020, a Chinese who visited Korea was confirmed as the first infected person with COVID-19.
This was just the beginning.
Few people are still fully aware of the danger.
However, the number of confirmed patients increased one or two, and until February 17, the number remained at the level of 30, showing a lull.
Suddenly, on February 20th, the situation changed rapidly as the number of infected people surged through a specific religious group centered in Daegu and North Gyeongsang Province.
Only now, the people of South Korea are beginning to realize the dangers of COVID-19.
My sister, Park Mi-ae, also realized the seriousness of the situation, but took no action.
“I thought I was talking nonsense, but it’s amazing that it all turns out to be true.”
From this point on, the downhill began.
All six stores, from the main branch of Armis Coffee Shop to the 5th branch, began to take a huge hit in sales.
It lasted for a few months, but after that it was a problem.
In a situation where you can’t see at all like now, the store could have gone out of business and closed.
In this COVID-19 crisis situation, Minjun sold all 36.5 million boxes of KF94 yellow dust masks he had against the government, or 3.65 billion each.
A reporter reported in detail about this.
Min-jun bought them for 150 won each and kept them, then sold them to the government for 500 won each, so he made a profit of 350 won each.
Since the volume is huge, these amounts to a whopping 1.825 trillion won, and if you subtract the purchase price of 547.5 billion won, you made a profit of 1.2775 trillion won.
The horse was 1.2775 trillion won, an astronomical profit.
It was difficult for even large corporations to raise such high profits.
In fact, even if it wasn’t for this, Minjun was the world’s richest man.
It seemed that he had a special ability to make astronomical money.
“I have to worry about it, but I can’t solve it with my own abilities. It’s going to be closed if you stay like this. I need to ask my younger brother, Minjun, for a favor.”
I tried not to contact him for a while.
But it was unavoidable.
I took out my smartphone and called Minjun.
After eating a hearty snack and drinking wheat, Min-joon was sitting on the sofa in the living room with a satisfied expression, watching a girl group sing and dance on the 75-inch OLED TV.
My smartphone rang, so I picked up what I had left on the tea table and looked at it, and it was my older sister Park Mi-ae.
I guessed roughly why he contacted me.
The store would have been difficult because of the COVID-19 situation.
“Uh, sister.”
-Minjun, how are you?-
“I’m fine. How is your sister?”
-Actually, I’m having a bit of a hard time these days.-
“There are 5 Armis coffee shops, so there are 6 in total, including the main one, right?”
-okay. So it’s difficult.-
“You can’t just watch customers come into the store.”
-Then what should I do?-
“Delivery right now through a delivery company.”
-Do you want to deliver?-
“okay. Deliver at a special price, 50% of the current price.”
-Then is it too much damage?-
“You may think so, but first, surviving is the first priority. Even if the margin is small, first of all, as I said, deliver while lowering the price by 50%.”
-Will it really work?-
“of course. If you do deliveries, you’ll be able to breathe a little more than now. If you hold out until the fall like this, then you can survive.”
-really?-
“Because it is. I will provide 1 billion won to my sister’s top bank account, so use it.”
-Minjun, thank you so much.-
“Don’t be too discouraged and overcome this crisis well. Then good days will come.”
-okay. okay.-
Still, my older sister, Park Mi-ae, couldn’t turn a blind eye to Min-joon’s difficulties, so I decided to help.
After ending the call, I immediately transferred 1 billion won to my sister Park Mi-ae’s top bank account.
When the alarm sounded and a text message came in saying that the money had been deposited, Mi-ae Park, who confirmed it, regained her energy.
As Minjun advised, from the next morning, the price was reduced by 50% and delivery was carried out using a delivery company.
As a result, sales increased compared to before delivery.
Of course, it’s half the price, but I thought I could sell more.
It was better than just waiting for guests to come.
Other stores were in a mess because business was not working properly.
I couldn’t work until late at night.
“There are not too many guests.”
“Sales are down by less than half.”
“I’m going to be ruined like this.”
“It’s too hard.”
The streets were quiet as the guests returned home early.
I was crying because even the famous restaurants were not doing business.
At least, Korea was doing well at this level.
China and Japan were suffering enormous damage.
The United States, Europe, South America, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East were facing a cataclysm with COVID-19.
Even the governments of each country were at a loss for what to do with the initial chaos.
Since there was no vaccine or treatment, the only way was for individuals to be careful.
In this situation, Korea was doing well in quarantine and started mass-producing and exporting diagnostic kits.
Everyone is facing a major crisis due to COVID-19, but there was only one person who was at peace.
It was Minjun.
Since the self-developed vaccine was vaccinated with slave Kim Yong-min, there was no worry because antibodies were formed.
But I didn’t go out as much as possible.
Even if I went out very occasionally, it was formal, but I wore a KF94 yellow dust mask.
I didn’t have to do anything like this, but I couldn’t help it because there was an image that people could see.
“Even if it’s uncomfortable, you have to accept it.”
Since Jisoo came to the Cube Tower Intelligent Building in Dogok-dong, we decided to have lunch together.
These days, going out to eat is also noticeable and uncomfortable.
So we decided not to go out at all and eat together at the residence.
These days, Minjun is obsessed with cooking, so he liked cooking.
“What are you going to eat?”
“How about making pork belly, tuna kimchi stew, and fried rice?”
“great. How about drinking soju?”
“great.”
In this way, a portable gas burner was placed on the table and a frying pan was raised.
I took out the raw pork belly that looked appetizing.
Chee Hee!
The sound of the raw pork belly on the frying pan being cooked was amazing.
I cut it into appropriate sizes with scissors, baked it well, and put it on a plate.
“Try it.”
“I will eat well.”
Ji-su wrapped lettuce wraps and handed them out to Min-joon.
It’s not a big deal, but I’m glad that you think about it, and it makes me feel better.
This time, Minjun wrapped lettuce wraps and handed them out to Jisoo.
It was better to take each other once in a while.
We talked while grilling and eating pork belly in earnest.
Chapter 35 Vaccines and Therapeutics 1
It was a hot summer in mid-July 2020.
However, due to the influence of Corona 19, tourists decreased and not many people enjoyed summer vacation properly.
