Zhou Chen said something rudely, his face full of coldness and disdain.
"Do you really think that I am easy to deceive because I am young? I still understand the market in Guangdong Province. Although it is much more developed than here, not everyone can make money there, even uneducated people like you
People can only work in factories and do hard labor, and they get the most basic salary. Three hundred a month is already pretty good."
"But Xiaohua is only sixteen years old and a minor. I don't believe that the factory boss will give her a normal salary. She can get more than two hundred, which is already considered high. Doesn't she need to eat and drink, buy clothes, or
Will she not get sick from daily necessities? After all the expenses, she will definitely not be able to save even two thousand a year."
"So, 20,000 yuan is nonsense. It is not easy to save 10,000 yuan in seven years, but it will take seven years to get that much money, and I can give you 10,000 yuan now.
With these ten thousand, your son can marry a wife and build a house now, and does not need to wait until seven years to marry a wife."
"Such a comparison is equivalent to saving seven years for your son. Maybe you can also meet your grandson seven years earlier. Isn't this a good thing?"
Xiaohua's parents were aroused by what Zhou Chen said, and they couldn't help but fantasize according to what Zhou Chen said.
Yes, even if Xiaohua can earn so much money, it will take several years. But if they agree now, they can get the money right away, and then their son can get married, and they can also look forward to their grandson earlier.
Thinking of this, they suddenly became emotional. For them, their sons and grandsons were the most important. Their daughters were not important at all, they were just tools to make money.
"We agreed, will you really give us the money? You won't lie to us, right?"
Zhou Chen snorted coldly: "If I wanted to lie to you, would I need to put in so much effort? If it weren't for Xiaohua, I wouldn't have said any more nonsense to you."
With ten thousand yuan in front of them, Xiaohua's parents discussed quietly for a while, and finally it was Xiaohua's father who spoke.
"Okay, we can promise you that as long as you give us 10,000 yuan, we will not care about Xiaohua for the next seven years. She can do whatever she wants and study if she wants to. But we have to say yes. If she wants to study, she will study in the future.
We will not pay any money or living expenses."
Zhou Chen really felt sad for Xiaohua. It was indeed sad to meet such parents, but it was okay for him to be like this, and he didn't want to get entangled with them.
"Okay, but I don't trust you either. Who knows if you will agree to me now and take my money, but then suddenly change your mind and come back to pester Xiaohua."
Xiaohua's mother looked away and said nothing, but Xiaohua's father was furious: "You fart, even though we are country people and uneducated, we can't do such shameless things. Our old Li family can't afford to be embarrassed."
This person.”
Zhou Chen didn't believe it at all: "Anyone can say it, but I don't believe you, so if you want to get these ten thousand yuan, you must sign a contract with me."
"What do you mean?"
Xiaohua's parents looked at each other. They couldn't follow Zhou Chen's thinking and didn't understand what Zhou Chen wanted to do.
"It's just a contract. As long as you don't regret it, it will have no impact on you at all. Of course, if you don't want to, I won't force you, but this ten thousand..."
"We do."
Xiaohua's father was afraid that the money would run away, so he couldn't wait to agree. He didn't take Zhou Chen's words about breaking the contract seriously at all. His top priority now was to get the money first, and we would talk about the rest later.
Zhou Chen didn't waste any time and said directly to Xiaohua: "Xiaohua, give me your pen and paper."
Xiaohua's eyes were filled with tears: "Brother Chen, let's forget it. Ten thousand yuan is too much. I can't let you spend money just to study on my own."
But before Zhou Chen said anything, her father yelled angrily: "Xiaohua, you stinky girl, what are you talking about? Give him the pen and paper quickly. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I can't beat you to death."
But Xiaohua didn't look at her, she just looked at Zhou Chen with mist-like eyes.
Zhou Chen smiled slightly, reached out and patted her head, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I told you, this is called investing, investing in your future, you have to have confidence in yourself, please give me the pen and paper quickly.
, so many of us are looking forward to you continuing to study, you can’t let all our efforts go to waste.”
"But……"
"Hua'er, listen to Zhou Chen."
Qiang Xiaowa advised from the side that although he didn't know what Zhou Chen was going to do, he felt that Zhou Chen was so smart and must have his reasons. He believed in Zhou Chen.
Xiaohua pursed her lips, then took out a pen and paper from her schoolbag. Zhou Chen tore off a piece of paper, asked Xiaohua's father's name, and then wrote a lot of words quickly.
In about five minutes, Zhou Chen had already written a contract and handed it to Xiaohua's parents, but Xiaohua's parents quickly became embarrassed.
The man has never read a book at all, and although the woman has read for a few years, she can't even recognize all the words. She didn't recognize many words in the contract written by Zhou Chen.
"Little baby, read it to them again."
"good."
Qiang Xiaowa did not hesitate, took it and started reading.
"Today..., I will hire Li Chunhua for 10,000 yuan... for seven years... After seven years, if Li Chunhua starts working, she will need to provide her parents with 200 yuan in alimony every month until their parents die..."
"etc."
Xiaohua's parents suddenly interrupted Qiang Xiaowa and looked at Zhou Chen with doubtful eyes: "What does the employment mean here? And what does the alimony after seven years mean?"
Zhou Chen explained: "The reason why I wrote about employment is to avoid embarrassing you. Do you want me to write that you sold her to me for seven years?"
Xiaohua's parents looked embarrassed. It really didn't sound good to say this. Although they had confirmed that it was a sale, they still wanted to save face and didn't want to really spread the news.
"As for the alimony after seven years, this is a guarantee for you. After all, if Xiaohua is admitted to university, it will be almost seven years after graduation. She is also your daughter anyway. You must raise her.
There will be something in return, so it is her responsibility as a child to give you two hundred a month in alimony, don’t you want it?"
"Yes, of course I do, of course I do."
When they heard that there was such a good thing, Xiaohua's parents were so excited that they grinned to their chins. They thought it was a one-time deal, but they didn't expect that there would be such a good thing in the future.
Seeing their happy faces, Zhou Chen sneered in his heart. Did he really think that pie would fall from the sky? Two hundred in seven years, ha.
"Xiaohua, are you willing to pay the alimony I wrote down?"
Xiaohua has complete trust in Zhou Chen, and she is also a filial daughter. Although she is disappointed with her parents' cruelty, she does not really want to sever the relationship. If she can make money in the future, she is still willing to give her parents alimony.
"Brother Chen, I will listen to you. I will do whatever you ask me to do."
Zhou Chen was very satisfied with Xiaohua's answer. The reason why he wrote this was for Xiaohua's consideration, because he knew very well that if Xiaohua really went to college and got a good job, her parents would definitely not give up this money tree.
, so he wanted to use two hundred yuan to cut off their escape route.
Two hundred in seven years is not the same concept as two hundred now. As long as Xiaohua can go to college, the two hundred in the future will not put any pressure on her at all.
"Since you don't have any objections, then, little kid, you can continue reading."
Qiang Xiaowa then read: "......, if the contract is violated, the Li family and Li Daquan's house will..."
He suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhou Chen with a face full of astonishment. This made Xiaohua's parents anxious: "Little bastard, keep reading."
Zhou Chen smiled at him, nodded and said, "Go on and read it as I wrote it."
Qiang Xiaowa swallowed, looking embarrassed, but still obeyed Zhou Chen's instructions and continued reading.
"If the contract is violated, the Li Daquan family will have no descendants in the future. Li Baoqiang, the son of Li Daquan, will give birth to a son without a brother, and a daughter without a buttock..."
"Stop, stop, stop."
Xiaohua's parents stopped at the same time, and then glared at Zhou Chen with anger on their faces: "How dare you curse our old Li family?"
Zhou Chen spread his hands and said innocently: "You have misunderstood me. I wrote it very clearly that this is a breach of contract. If you have never thought of breaching the contract, you don't have to worry about this unwarranted curse."
?Unless you were not sincere from the beginning and wanted to defraud me of my money?"
"Fart, even though I, Li Daquan, haven't read a book, I spit and nail, how can I not mean what I say?" Xiaohua's father yelled excitedly.
"That's it. Since you won't break the contract, what do you have to worry about?"
"But you are too vicious."
"As I said again, if you don't want to, this contract doesn't require any money, even 10,000 yuan, and so many things happened today. Even if you take Xiaohua back, if she can come back once, she can come back again.
The second time, or even the next time she may not come back, but go to a place where you can't find her, and then you will really lose both your life and property."
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Xiaohua's parents suddenly changed. Yes, Xiaohua had already run away once, there was no guarantee that she wouldn't run away a second time, and if a girl ran away with a man, they would get nothing.
Thinking of this, they immediately looked at their daughter fiercely, but what surprised them was that the cowardly little flower looked straight at them without hiding, which made them even more shocked.
Seeing that they stopped talking, Zhou Chen asked Qiang Xiaowa to continue reading.
"If the contract is violated, Li Baoqiang's wife's family will also have no descendants in the future..."
After Qiang Xiaowa finished reciting, he was covered in cold sweat and felt cold in his heart. He was really frightened by Zhou Chen's vicious curse.
Good guy, it's not enough to curse Li Daquan and his family, but he also wants to bring brother Xiaohua's future wife and family with him. It's too cruel, it's really too cruel.
Xiaohua's parents were also numb, but when Zhou Chen saw it, he smiled.
With the qualities of Xiaohua's parents, if you want to talk to them about law, morality, and family ties, it will be useless. However, country people are often superstitious, especially people with little education like them, who are often more superstitious.
Therefore, using this method of superstitious curses will make them more likely to be jealous and afraid.
Of course, if they have no taboos, Zhou Chen won't worry. The addition of Li Baoqiang's wife and family is a guarantee. Your Li family doesn't care, and your daughter-in-law's natal family can't care at all, right?
When the time comes, this flimsy piece of paper may bring peace to their whole family.
Zhou Chen took the contract over and took out the ink pad that he had prepared long ago.
"Just sign and pledge. As long as you sign and pledge, you can take the 10,000 yuan right away."
Xiaohua's father immediately wanted to sign and pledge the money and take the money, but Xiaohua's mother pulled him and whispered: "How about we think about it again?"
Xiaohua's father, Li Daquan, waved his hand and said angrily: "I've already said it, every spit and every nail, but I won't go back on my word anyway, why are I afraid of his curse?"
Under Li Daquan's force, Xiaohua's mother could only obey. Although she had more ideas, Li Daquan still had the final say on the price. He decided and she could only obey.
To be on the safe side, Zhou Chen wrote another copy, making two copies in total.
Li Daquan and his wife quickly signed and placed a deposit, and Zhou Chen asked Xiaohua to sign and place a deposit. After everything was done, Zhou Chen put away the contract.
"Give me the money." Xiaohua's father said impatiently.
Zhou Chen was very straightforward and slapped 10,000 yuan on his hand. He was about to take his hand back, but he was held down by Zhou Chen and his hand was pinched.
Slowly approaching Li Daquan's ear, Zhou Chen warned: "Li Daquan, let me give you another warning. Don't try to play tricks with me. Otherwise, I can guarantee you that your family will not have a good life. I
Although I don’t dare to kill anyone, I can still spend some money to find someone and break their arms and legs or something.”
Li Daquan listened to Zhou Chen's cold words, and then saw Zhou Chen's murderous eyes, his heart suddenly suddenly became more and more frightened.
Zhou Chen let go and he took the money back.
"Don't threaten me, I'm not afraid of trouble."
The stern look on his face made Zhou Chen chuckle.
"I'll give you another warning. Go to the bank and deposit your money quickly. Don't let it be stolen by petty thieves on the street."
"You don't need to say it, baby, he's gone."
Li Daquan said hello, then turned around and left without even looking at his daughter. The child's mother glanced at Xiaohua, but didn't say anything, and then left.
"Dad, Mom."
Xiaohua cried and shouted, but got no response.
Zhou Chen walked up to her and said softly: "Don't cry, pick up your mood quickly, you have to take the exam later, you have to prove to them that you have chosen the right path, so work hard.
"
Xiaohua wiped away her tears and nodded vigorously.
"Well, I will definitely prove it. Brother Chen, I'm sorry. Thanks to you today, I made you lose so much money. You were so kind to me, and I don't know how to repay you. Don't worry, I will work hard in the future.
Study and earn money in the future, and I will give it to you. I will give you as much money as you want."
Zhou Chen said with a smile: "No, in that case, wouldn't I be the same as your parents? We can talk about the future later. The most important thing for you now is to take the exam."
On the way to school, Qiang Xiaowa asked Zhou Chen in a low voice: "Zhou Chen, is your 10,000 yuan really okay?"
"Don't worry, it's no problem. Didn't I say that this is an investment, and Xiaohua will return it to me with interest in the future."
"You don't need to comfort me. I'm not stupid. I know you just want to help Xiaohua. Thank you, Zhou Chen. You are such a good person."
Being given the good guy card again, Zhou Chen smiled and said nothing.
The three of them moved very quickly. Although they were delayed by Xiaohua's parents for twenty minutes, they arrived at the school smoothly at 8:55, and Xiaohua was in time for the exam.
