Chan-Ho brought a small box of some first-aid medicine . The box was a first-aid kit with all kinds of medicines and items such as digestive medicines like Cheong Ro Hwan, cold medicines, an antibiotic ointment, adhesive bandages, compress dressings, etc . They were placed in the box in a very organized way .

"Wow . You are very well prepared . "
"Actually, the madam gave it to me . "
"Madam? What madam?"
"Your wife, sir . "
"My wife? Really? When did she give this to you?"
"She stopped by the building in Sinsa Town the day before we left . You didn't see her?"
"She did?"
"She came during lunchtime and gave this box to me, and she said she wants us to have a safe trip . She said she couldn't stay long because she had to get back to work as soon as possible . "
"I see . "
Gun-Ho was touched by his wife's thoughtfulness and care .
'Young-Eun, thank you . '
Once he took Cheong Ro Hwan with warm water, Gun-Ho felt much better . He laid down on the bed and thought about Young-Eun . He missed her, and he missed her tender and fair skin .
'I guess this is how a married man feels like . I feel sorry for Young-Eun . I haven't done much for her . I feel extremely sorry for the fact that I slept with Mori Aikko the other day in Tokyo . I will buy a gift for her at the duty-free shop at the airport on the way back home .
But, Young-Eun doesn't seem to like an expensive gift that I buy at the airport's duty-free shop .

Then what should I get her? I want something fun for her, something that would make her laugh . '
The rain stopped . Gun-Ho called for Chan-Ho Eum .
"A car will be here to pick us up at 1 pm . Because of the rain, I canceled the city tour that was scheduled for morning . Let's just walk around the city on our own . "
Chan-Ho looked excited and followed Gun-Ho to the street .
The street looked cleaner after the rain, but there was stagnant water everywhere along with a bad smell .
"Sir, what does that business sign say?"
"It's a laundry . "
"What about that one?"
"It's a barbershop . "
Chan-Ho was busy taking pictures whenever he saw a three-wheeled rickshaw or a person in a Chinese ethnic costume while following Gun-Ho around . Gun-Ho entered a traditional craft shop and bought two wooden figures that were wearing a Chinese ethnic costume .
"This one is for you . "
Chan-Ho, who was holding the wooden figure, looked excited .
Gun-Ho and Chan-Ho took the car that the president of the terminals sent for them, and they arrived at the airport in Guiyang City around 5 pm . Gun-Ho gave two packs of Korean cigarettes to the chauffeur as a gift .
When they arrived at the airport in Suzhou City, Min-Hyeok Kim was waiting for them .
"President Goo! How was the trip to Guizhou Province?"

"It was okay . "
"Hey, Chan-Ho! You are here too!"
"Hello . "
"You haven't eaten yet, right? Let's go and get some food . "
"Can we eat Korean food, not Chinese food? I think I ate too much oily food . I had diarrhea . "
"Sure . I know a decent Korean restaurant around here!"
Suzhou City was beautiful, especially at night with splendid street lights .
"Wow . It is a big city . "
Chan-Ho commented while looking out of the window .
Min-Hyeok took them to a Korean restaurant in a hotel .
"I will have a Doenjang-jjigae (a Korean soybean paste stew) . "
"Okay . For Chan-Ho… Since he is young, he will need to eat meat, right? How about Bulgogi*?"
"I can eat anything . "
Min-Hyeok ordered one Doenjang-jjigae and two Bulgogi .

Min-Hyeok talked about how things went with their business in China, "We are lucky that we have the Suzhou Industrial Park . The Korean companies occupying there place lots of product orders from us . Currently, our monthly sales revenue exceeded 700 million won . "
"That will make the yearly sales revenue by more than 8 billion won . Last year, you achieved the annual sales revenue of 7 . 8 billion won, right?"
"This year's goal is 10 billion won, and I have good feelings about it . We are providing good quality products on time, which satisfies our customers . Moreover, ever since we are working with Dingding's sales company, we are doing even better now . "
"It's good that the company in China is being stabilized . "
"One of the reasons that helped to stabilize our business is the reliable machines . They used to produce defective products, and I had a hard time apologizing for it to our clients . I no longer have to do that these days . "
"That's a big relief!"
"We have now the former factory manager . He is very reliable . Since he is healthy even at his age, I want to work with him longer . "
"He is okay with his current salary of 10,000 Yuan, isn't he?"
"He seems to be satisfied with it . Our company pays for his room and flight tickets to Korea . He visits Korea quarterly . He once told me that he felt sorry because the company pays for his personal expenses . "
"I see . "
"The major source for our sales revenue is the product—AM083 Assembly—that goes to S Group, in addition to our existing products . Also, the window manufacturing company that Seukang Li introduced to us is our major client as well . Dingding received a product drawing from the company in Yangcheng the other day, and we just sent it to Korea . "
"Did you send it to the GH Mobile's chief officer of the research center?"
"Yes . He said they can complete the mould and send it to us by next week . "
"Hmm, I see . "
"If that goes well, we will make the sales revenue of 9 billion won this year without any problem if not 10 billion won . "
"Are you still the general manager of your college alumni association in China?"
Min-Hyeok smiled and said, "Yes, I'm still doing it . One of my college friends there is working in the Mandong Company's factory in the Beijing location as a manager . He said he would visit me someday . I'm planning to make his best day here when he visits me . "
"Mandong Company is GH Mobile's second major client . If you could make a business with them here in China, that would be great . "
"The thing is that since their factory is located in Beijing, the transportation cost will be high . But, if they order expensive products, then it will be worth making business . "
"Sounds good . I hope it goes well . "
"You can stay in this hotel . I made a reservation for two rooms . You are leaving for Korea tomorrow afternoon, right? I will come back tomorrow at 10 am . "
"Okay . "
"You can stop by the GH Parts Company tomorrow before visiting Dingding's office . I told Dingding to make a reservation with a nice restaurant for lunch . "
"Sounds good . "
Gun-Ho felt much better after having Korean food . Also, he felt good when he thought of his factory in China .
'When I acquired that factory, I paid 100 million won to Mulpasaneop's president's son . And then, I put an additional 300 million won in it when it started the business . I just received 950 million won as a dividend from the company . So, it's like I picked up this company for free .
Moreover, Min-Hyeok is having a successful life by operating that company . Also, the retired plant manager is working here too . Anything that company makes from now on, that's extra money . As Master Park from Goesan Town told me the other day, Min-Hyeok is making money for me, and all I have to is to count that money . '
