Only I Have Two Towers Episode 143
New Resale Shop
Everyone’s gaze focused on Jinhyeok.
It wasn’t simply because of what he had just said.
A single credit card that casually protruded from his pants pocket.
That wasn’t something you could get just by having money.
A VVIP card that could only be issued through an invitation from a VIP already using the card.
It was rumored that you could buy a tank with it, with only slight exaggeration.
“Please make it a lump sum payment.”
Unlike the startled employees, Jinhyeok was completely relaxed.
Oh Jun-tae stood dumbfounded before awkwardly receiving the card.
A hand reached over Jun-tae’s shoulder from behind.
“Hello! I’m veteran sales associate Woo! Mun! Do!”
A person whose shirt was about to burst from how much he had bulked up.
Jinhyeok’s card was already in his hands.
“Since this is quite an item, I think it would be better for an experienced sales associate to handle it for smooth transactions! That way our VIP customer would be more comfortable too! Don’t you think so, Associate Oh Jun-tae?”
Manager Woo Mun-do applied pressure with the hand on his shoulder.
With his appearance, the employees who had been trying to peek turned away in unison.
He was famous.
For stealing new employees’ sales records.
They thought he had quieted down after getting a warning from the branch manager.
But it seemed his eyes had rolled back because of what this item was.
And the branch manager happened to be taking a half-day off too.
Jun-tae bowed his head deeply instead of answering.
Normally he would have given an immediate response and turned away.
Because getting on Woo Mun-do’s bad side would make life difficult going forward.
But today wasn’t easy.
This was a once-in-a-lifetime stroke of luck – should he just let it slip away?
“Now, now, Associate Oh Jun-tae! You worked hard attending to the customer. I’ll handle it from here on…”
“Associate Oh Jun-tae.”
Before Woo Mun-do could finish speaking.
Jinhyeok called for Jun-tae.
Jun-tae, who had been bowing deeply, raised his head.
“Even if I have questions after purchasing, you’ll kindly explain things like before, right? Even though I’m a complete beginner, everything went straight into my ears. I even developed affection for a motorcycle I haven’t even ridden yet.”
“Of, of course! I’ll do my absolute best!”
Woo Mun-do’s brow furrowed.
“Haha… Customer. Transactions for items like this can’t be handled with just fighting spirit alone. Without abundant experience, it’s bound to be overwhelming. So…”
“Give me my card.”
Once again, Jinhyeok didn’t listen to Woo Mun-do’s words to the end.
He simply extended his hand toward the card.
Gritting sound.
‘Just because this young punk has some money.’
But he couldn’t back down like this.
This opportunity was too precious for that.
It was a motorcycle worth over 200 million won.
The moment it sold, he’d receive a commission that far exceeded his annual salary.
“Oh my! Don’t be like that, I’ll take good care of the freebies for you too, so please think about it a little more…!?”
The card disappeared from his hand in an instant.
Both Woo Mun-do and Oh Jun-tae’s eyes widened.
How could human hands be that fast?
“Manager Woo Mun-do really met his match today.”
“He got a final warning from the branch manager and still… tsk.”
“How embarrassing. Making a scene and getting nothing out of it.”
Woo Mun-do gritted his teeth at the murmuring voices.
They were right.
Now that it’s come to this, I’ll get it somehow.
“Customer…”
“Manager Woo Mun-do.”
His words were cut off once again, making his blood boil.
But expressing his anger was impossible.
“B-Branch Manager.”
Didn’t he say he was taking a half-day off?
“You don’t seem to understand what ‘final’ means.”
“That’s not it…”
“Enough. Associate Oh Jun-tae. Please take good care of our VIP customer. This year’s top employee seems to be decided already. Manager Woo Mun-do, come to my office. Right now. To pack your things.”
Jinhyeok swallowed dryly.
This person reminded him of the student affairs teacher from middle school.
‘You know it’s karma, right?’
After offering his quiet condolences to Manager Woo Mun-do, he followed Oh Jun-tae.
He wanted to ride it quickly.
My motorcycle.
“Well, see you again!”
“Thank you!! I love you, customer!! Please contact me anytime you need help! I’ll do my absolute best!!”
After waving to the enthusiastically greeting Jun-tae, he placed his hand on the throttle.
Mmm, this grip feel. Absolutely excellent.
Since it was his first personal vehicle, the emotions felt different.
‘Oh right, there’s Kentariffin too.’
He almost forgot about that friend.
Correction complete – his first vehicle in the real world.
He brought his thumb over and tried starting it.
Fingerprint recognition ignition, how amazing.
His father’s motorcycle, which required vigorous pedaling to start, flashed through his mind.
Vroooooom!!!
He closed his eyes at the vibration that shook his entire body.
This Ducati friend wasn’t called a motorcycle masterpiece for nothing.
He slowly pulled the throttle.
He had to be careful since they said he’d fly if he pulled it hard.
The motorcycle smoothly glided onto the road.
The helmet he received as a freebie also matched the motorcycle perfectly.
‘I just need to land well.’
He had already simulated how to handle accidents in advance.
His body was sturdy enough to be fine, but he couldn’t let the other party’s car turn into scraps of paper.
‘Everyone’s incredibly kind.’
Seoul city driving with its notorious reputation.
He had been a bit scared since it was said to be a place where you could feel the anger dwelling in modern people.
But there were no cars trying to overtake, and they let him merge well just by turning on his signal, so he didn’t particularly feel that way.
After enjoying such smooth riding for a while.
He could see the newly opened Auction House building up ahead.
Even though it had just opened, customers were already bustling about.
It seemed like the synergy created by Yeongsanghoe’s capabilities and Generosos’s promotional power.
‘Very stable indeed.’
Unlike the old days, Yoo Su-yeon wasn’t running around alone anymore.
Generosos had assigned competent staff to help, and the shop had been remodeled to accommodate more customers.
Gradually slowing down, he parked the motorcycle near the building.
“Hey, hey, look over there. Isn’t that a Ducati?”
“Crazy, is that a Panigale? There’s a Lamborghini logo too.”
Jinhyeok, who was about to turn off the engine, revved the accelerator again.
They say riding a good car or motorcycle makes you reluctant to get off.
Rather than that, it actually felt burdensome.
Step.
After parking in a secluded spot, he entered the Auction House.
“Long time no see.”
“Oh.”
There were too many people gathered, so he missed the presence.
Grandfather Oh Jae-gap was waving his hand near the entrance.
“Why are you here? What about the Dongdaemun General Store?”
“I closed that down. From now on, that’s my corner over there.”
Oh Jae-gap pointed to one side of the shop with his chin.
Unlike the General Store that had things scattered messily everywhere, this shop was very neatly organized.
Still, it seemed he couldn’t give up the name.
# General Store Miscellaneous Corner.
Now he only deals with items that don’t overlap with the Auction House.
“Didn’t you say you’d never move? That you were comfortable there.”
“I did say that. But to refuse…”
Oh Jae-gap made a circle with his index finger and thumb.
“It was too much money.”
“My father said that too. The most important thing for a merchant is first money, second money, and third money.”
“Your father was in business?”
“No. He saw it in a NewTube collection of famous quotes.”
“I, I see.”
“Huh?”
Yoo Su-yeon spotted Jinhyeok while inspecting the shop.
Jin Seo-hee, the representative of Generosos, was also with her.
Su-yeon, whose eyes met his, pointed to a door with her hand.
“Go ahead. I’ll be here.”
After a light bow, he opened the door.
It was a meeting room with a rich coffee aroma.
“Hello! Mr. Jinhyeok, you’re so famous these days that it’s hard to see you.”
“Oh, famous? Not really.”
After briefly exchanging pleasantries with the joking Su-yeon, Seo-hee brought her face closer.
“Mr. Yoo Jin-hyeok.”
“Yes?”
“I was so oblivious. To think you were a Runner.”
Jinhyeok showed an awkward expression.
He wasn’t particularly surprised.
Given how much he had shown, it wouldn’t have been strange for her to notice anytime.
“Haah.”
Seo-hee stepped back and let out a deep sigh.
Rather, seeing him too closely had been the problem.
What she had seen was a combat style that was far too different from the Runner’s known characteristics.
“How did you know?”
“Was it after the UK customs announcement? My brother and grandfather suddenly said they owed Mr. Jinhyeok a debt. Plus.”
She pointed to the top-grade items displayed on the shelves.
“After checking the ledger, it didn’t make sense unless Mr. Jinhyeok was a Runner. Anyway.”
Seo-hee smiled.
“It’s an honor. Runner. Grandfather and my brother want you to visit once. To repay the debt, they said.”
“Oh yes. I’ll visit when you’re not busy.”
“If you say you’re coming, no matter how busy they are, they’ll clear their entire schedule for that day.”
While various conversations were flowing in the friendly atmosphere.
“Didn’t Momo come with you today?”
“Momo here!”
“!?”
Startled, Seo-hee and Su-yeon turned their heads.
Momo was sitting on the sofa, demolishing cookies.
Next to her was a pile of items that needed to be delivered today.
“Momo! Sorry!! I didn’t notice you came again!”
Su-yeon rushed over and hugged Momo.
She looked like she was dying of guilt for always noticing late.
‘You don’t need to be sorry.’
Although she was detected once by that yakuza’s special ability last time, generally Momo’s presence suppression trait was otherworldly level.
It was natural not to notice her.
But wait, how did she already finish a whole container of cookies?
“Seo-hee. This is Momo. Mr. Jinhyeok’s niece. She awakened an incredibly large inventory ability. Isn’t she amazing?”
“Amazing Momo, what’s she like!!”
While Momo made a proud expression.
Seo-hee looked at Jinhyeok.
“You had a niece? Isn’t your younger sister still young?”
“A distant niece, you could say.”
What’s a distant niece supposed to mean?
She was puzzled but decided to let it slide.
It was just adding one more to the countless question marks anyway.
After greeting Momo, Seo-hee examined the items.
‘How is this possible?’
Yet another question mark arose.
She had visited various shops for market research purposes.
Thanks to that, she was able to see various items from different floors.
The things she saw then were also quite high-quality grade products. But this was one grade… no, one dimension higher.
“Amazing, right?”
Su-yeon approached with a smile.
“It’s not for nothing that I call Mr. Jinhyeok the pillar of the Auction House.”
“That’s right. The condition is beyond perfect, reaching divine levels. Were you also good with your hands?”
She looked back at Jinhyeok playing with Momo.
That person, what exactly can’t he do?
“Starting with items from the 60th Floor area, we should create another luxury corner. They’d be too expensive to sell in the current corner.”
“I completely agree. They’ll probably sell like hotcakes. These kinds of things are hard to find in any country.”
Seo-hee nodded and smiled.
She had to acknowledge it.
For the Auction House and Generosos, that person was a blessing.
“Then regarding payment for today’s items…”
삐이이이이이—-!!
Sharp warning sounds burst from everyone’s phones.
Disaster alert tone.
Ding. Ding. Ding.
Jinhyeok checked the messages arriving one after another.
60th Floor Area transfer occurred.
It’s near this area.
