Chapter 79: Let Xue Langjing owe a lot of debt

Once you've convinced the team that such a contract is possible, it's time for them to know how to proceed.

"So how do these two contracts work? Let's take Sister Rong Rong as an example, for example, Lang Jing first spent sixty taels of silver to sign your deed of sale with your father, and after signing it, you signed a second contract in private, this contract stipulates that the deed of sale is valid for five years, can you understand here? ”

Bai Rongrong didn't have to think about it, and said directly, "I understand, the second contract is equivalent to a supplement to the first one." ”

Zheng Linchu nodded, "That's right, that's what it means." So let's calculate it again, the deed of sale worth sixty taels of silver is only valid for five years, which is equivalent to Lang Jing prepaying your salary of one tael of silver per month for the next five years in advance, and your original monthly salary is six taels of silver, then she still needs to give you five taels of silver per month, right? ”

"Yes."

"But you see, it took her two or three months to save up such a amount, and some of it was saved before she formed the hunting team, so it can be seen that this silver is not so easy to earn. Moreover, you are not the only one who has signed a contract with her, there are so many other team members, everyone has to sign it. To sign a contract with so many team members and spend a lot of money for you, one person is dozens of taels, how much pressure is on Lang Jing, the silver will definitely be in short supply, so that she can no longer pay you five taels of silver a month, because the silver earned that month needs to be used to 'redeem' the next team member to the family, but she can't be greedy for your hard-earned wages! ”

"So, what then?"

Do you want her to get paid less? No one would be reconciled to this!

"The solution is very simple, after you sign the contract, Lang Jing will pay you two taels of silver every month. Hey, didn't you say that you can't be greedy for our wages, why do you only give me two taels of silver? What if I have three taels of silver? Is it because you can't pay it, I don't want it? ”

Everyone also nodded, yes, what about three taels of silver?

Without waiting for them to ask, Zheng Linchu immediately gave a solution, "It's easy to do, let Lang Jing owe it first." Well, you are short of money, and you can owe it a little bit, but how long? You have to give a deadline, do you owe it for a lifetime? Fifty years? Thirty years? ”

That's right, so when will we get paid the rest of the salary?

"Let's set this deadline at the moment when the validity of the deed of sale ends. At that time, the deed of sale was nullified and your freedom was terminated, and the employment relationship with the hunting team was terminated, and it was also the most suitable time to get all your wages back. ”

Well, that's a good idea, but....

"But, it's been too long, can't it be sooner? You will inevitably feel panicked again, how can there be so many wages in arrears in the world, and one owe is the truth for several years. I don't feel at ease with who I put my own money, but it is safest to hold it in my own hands. ”

Well, she guessed all the little bit of caution in their hearts.

"But think about it again, who suddenly took out such a large amount of money to free you from the constraints of your family, so that you can live an unfettered life in the future? It's Lang Jing! She just wanted to help you get rid of the shackles that she couldn't pay you in time, so she could only be in arrears! In other words, you have only paid a few years for a delay of a few years in exchange for complete personal freedom, and you say that the exchange is worth it to you. ”

It's really not worth it when you think about it this way, it's just that you can get paid later, and you can get free, otherwise they will have to marry early and become a wife and live the kind of life that Sister Rong Rong said they don't want to live now.

"So do you think it's worth it?"

Just ask you if it's worth it!

"Value", everyone nodded in response.

"Then it's settled, when this deed of sale is invalidated, and you get all the wages that have been owed over the years, you will be completely free, and when the time comes, if you want to stay, you can continue to sign an equal contract with the hunting team as a free body, and continue to participate in hunting, if you don't want to stay, you can take your money and leave for another day."

Sounds really nice, but....

A member of the team asked, "But, but when the time comes, we won't have a deed of sale, won't my father and mother still take care of us?" ”

In other words, these two contracts can only be managed for five years, so what about after five years? Don't they still have to be controlled by their parents, they will marry whoever they say, and they will marry how they want?

Zheng Linchu shook his head and said, "No, no, the second contract is only known to you, as long as you don't leak it, except for the internal members of the hunting team, no one else will know, including your father and mother, they will only think that the hunting team is still holding your deed of sale." ”

One of the team members asked, "Is that so?" Is it true that as long as there is this deed of sale, regardless of whether it is actually valid or not, Daddy and Mother will not be able to decide our affairs? ”

"That's right, this is a very important point", here, Zheng Linchu wants to talk to them carefully.

"You know, your father and mother have the right to decide everything about their children, this is on the moral level, and this deed of sale is stipulated in the law of our Great Chu State, generally speaking, morality cannot override the law, even if it really can, the moment your father and mother sign the deed of sale, it means that they agree with these legal provisions. For example, Sister Rong Rong, the contract you signed before, legally, as long as it is a contract written in black and white, it is valid, morally, without her father and mother, a woman is not allowed to decide her own affairs privately, so the contract you signed is not appropriate, so is it valid? Then it depends on whether the person who judges it values law or morality, if it values the law, it is biased to judge it valid, and if it values morality, it is invalid. But if your father and mother signed your deed of sale with Lang Jing, because they could have been your master, and it was written in black and white, then it is valid at both the moral level and the legal level, and no one can violate it. ”

Well, what is the moral level, the legal level, what they said is dizzy, it sounds very reasonable, but if you think about it carefully, what is this, they don't understand!

It doesn't matter if she doesn't understand, she analyzes them more bluntly, "That is to say, as long as your father and mother sign the deed of sale, it means that they agree that Lang Jing will buy them the power to decide any of your affairs with sixty taels of silver." Since then, your father and mother can't be the master of anything, because the power to be the master was exchanged for silver by Lang Jing, and she can only have the final say, so understand no, this is the role of the deed of sale. ”

This understands that they originally had to listen to their parents for everything, and after signing the deed of sale, they had to listen to the captain for everything, just like those people who sold the girl to a rich family.
