526 In Collusion

How could one only make 200 dollars from selling children! It should be at least 2,000 dollars, right?

If he backed out now, not only would he lose 200 dollars, but Zhang Qian would also push all the blame to him and put him in jail.

Given the current situation, it would be a better move to ask Zhang Qian for more money. As long as they did not tell anyone about this matter, no one would know where the children had gone. That cowardly Li Gui would not dare to say anything.

"If you want me to keep it a secret, I can do that. But I'm afraid 200 dollars isn't enough. You have to split half of the sale proceeds with me!" Zhang Cong said.

Half? If this kid was given half, how was he going to marry Chu Xin?

He was still counting on using this money as his retirement fund!

"Half is impossible. I'll give you 500 dollars at most! Not a single cent more!" Zhang Qian said impatiently.

Zhang Cong was still not satisfied. The two children would at least be sold for 5,000 dollars in total, but he was only given 500 dollars? That was too little.

Did he think he was dismissing a beggar by giving 500 dollars!

"1,000 dollars! Otherwise, I'll go to the police! It can be considered that I've been tricked by you. If I go to the police now, I might even be able to atone for my mistakes. The police won't arrest me then! Think about it!" Zhang Cong said threateningly.

Zhang Qian gave it some thought. This amount of 1,000 dollars would not mean much to him in the coming days, just some small change. Giving it to Zhang Cong was no different from giving money to a beggar. It was not a loss if he could use this bit of money to shut Zhang Cong up.

Zhang Cong would never have dreamed that the amount of 1,000 dollars was considered a small sum to dismiss him.

"Alright, but the money is all with Chu Xin. You have to wait until this whole matter is over before I can give it to you. I don't even know if the other family will take a fancy to that girl," Zhang Qian said.

Zhang Chao's price was much higher than Zhang Qin's. He heard that the first couple was infertile, so they wanted to find a child to inherit the family's shop business.

At the end of the day, boys were still different from girls. Boys were still more valuable!

Chu Xin used the same method to recommend Zhang Qin to the other couple. However, this couple did not like Zhang Qin's looks. She was thin and small, and it was obvious that she had never eaten her fill in her life so far. What if such a miserable-looking kid made them go bankrupt in the future?

"Sister, this child of yours is too skinny. Will she grow up well if she goes with us?" the woman said with a frown.

"Sister Jiang, I understand you want to find a wife for your son? This child is especially diligent, and even the word 'Qin' in her name means hardworking. The child will definitely get better once she eats more good food and takes good care of herself. Besides, she's capable and that will save you a lot of effort in the future. Sister, what do you think?" Chu Xin looked at Sister Jiang expectantly.

Sister Jiang also felt that what Chu Xin said made sense. With good food and drinks, the child would definitely look better in the future. She wanted to choose a child bride for her son so that she could have a better life ahead and need not worry too much. She definitely wanted to choose a capable girl.

This way, the girl would be able to take good care of their son and deal with all the family matters.

"You know that we're here only because of your reputation. Since you say that this child is fine, then we'll take her," Sister Jiang said impatiently.

Ever since they entered the house, her husband had not taken his eyes off Chu Xin. If not for the fact that there were many people around, she would have already taught her husband a lesson.

Chu Xin did not care about how the customers treated her. As long as she could get the money, everything else was a small matter!

Even if she had to sit on a customer's lap to introduce the child, she would willingly accept such a request with a smile.

"Sister-in-law is really a straightforward person. This child is not that young, so please bear with it and educate her slowly." Chu Xin said.

"Alright, you don't have to worry about this child after we give you the money. We'll decide how to deal with her. Don't worry about anything else. I definitely have my own ways," said Sister Jiang.

Sister Jiang's husband hurriedly passed the bag in his arms to Chu Xin and he took the chance to stroke Chu Xin's hand when he let go. Sister Jiang witnessed everything that happened.

"Alright, let's go." Sister Jiang glared at her husband and left Chu Xin's house, carrying her own bag.

When she got home, she would settle the score with her husband!

Sister Jiang ignored Zhang Qin, who was standing at the side. She pointed to her husband and said, "You, bring her along."

With that, she strode off.
