Chapter 980 - Contract

Chapter 980: Contract

They remembered that the son from his neighbor Mr. Li was working at a restaurant and received 8 liang a year. Together with some other bonuses, he was able to get 10 liang a year… and that was already enough for Mr. Li to brag about in the village.

However, the son of the village chief was working as a pageboy for a wealthy family, and that boy was paid around 1 liang a month, thus 12 liang a year. Together with some other bonuses, that boy was able to get around 15 liang a year… Shen Tai’s sister-in-law kept thinking about how much she should say. She was hoping to get as much money as possible a year.

They had a lot of land at home, but few people were capable of working. A good harvest would need a lot of effort, and since their son was going to school soon, they needed money.

She was thinking about getting 15 liang… in this way, that would be a huge income for her, but if she said that she needed 15 liang, and the manager wasn’t willing to pay that much, then the deal would be off. Faced with the two choices of getting money and Shen Tai’s returning home to do the labor, she believed that the former should be a better choice. Shen Tai’s efforts on the farmland would not help to earn much money within a year anyway.

Shen Tai’s sister-in-law was hesitating and it took her a while before she said, “13 liang a year.”

Having said this, she timidly glanced at Gu Chaoyan, fearing that she would not agree with it. Shen Tai’s sister-in-law already thought about a better deal, namely 10 liang a year, if Gu Chaoyan shook her head.

However, in case Gu Chaoyan accepts the request, it would be a great deal.

Before Gu Chaoyan could say anything, Shen Tai sprang up and said anxiously, “That won’t work! She saved my life, and didn’t charge anything from me, how can I get paid for my work!”

Gu Chaoyan looked at Shen Tai.

He did look very sincere.

Gu Chaoyan asked. “So your plan is to stay at the clinic and work out of gratitude?”

Shen Tai nodded seriously.

“In that case, stop talking now. Let me deal with it,” Gu Chaoyan said calmly.

Then she took out a note from her pocket.

It was worth 1,000 liang.

Then she said calmly, “In this case, then Shen Tai should sign a life-time contract, and here is 1,000 liang as the payment. It should be enough to cover the rest of his parents’ life, isn’t it? What do you think?”

Shen Tai’s sister-in-law had her eyes widened as she saw the money. She had not seen so much money even to this age.

It was 1,000 liang, enough to buy a small house in the outskirts of the town!

She had thought that 13 liang was already too much, but Shen Tai was far more valuable than she expected – that was 1,000 liang!

Shen Tai’s sister-in-law had no hesitation and nodded directly, “That is definitely enough!”

Gu Chaoyan nodded.

She threw a look at Xiu Jie. “Xiu Jie, go and have a contract prepared and let Shen Tai’s brother and his wife sign it. Then we will settle it.”

Xiu Jie answered and went to do what was needed.

He was glad as well.

Actually, for Elder Miss, the money did not matter. What mattered was that Elder Miss had seen value in Shen Tai, which was enough for this lucky dude.

Shen Tai got anxious, seeing what was going on.

That wouldn’t work! He came straightforward and said, “Elder Miss, that won’t work! You saved my life, so I should work for you without asking for anything in return!”
