Chapter 524: Lin Man and Shi Yan Are in Trouble
After wandering around, the two of them had lunch outside and then returned to the hotel. Tong Yao took a nap in the afternoon and when she woke up it was already three-thirty. Gu Hongwei and Hu Haiyun were back and were in Guo Jinnian’s room chatting.
Upon entering the room, they all hurriedly made Yao sit on the bed, treating her delicately as though she was a national treasure.
Those who knew Tong Yao were aware that she had been married for two to three years and it took her great effort to conceive a child, therefore taking special care of her was necessary.
After sitting down, she immediately voiced out, "So, have you found the right people?"
Hu Haiyun sighed, "We found three or four. I met them personally too. They were all young men in their early twenties, very sincere and honest. They are the nephews of a friend. I trust the people he recommends. But to me, they were too simple-minded. I’m afraid they might mess things up due to their naivety."
Given that Hu Haiyun was leading the team, Tong Yao didn’t express any opinions but continued to probe, "What are you planning to do now?"
Hu Haiyun didn’t hide anything from Tong Yao. She directly revealed the plans of hiring, "Right now, I have agreed to take them out on two trips for exposure, paying each of them one hundred and fifty yuan per trip. If they can handle matters independently, I’ll consider a salary hike."
Tong Yao nodded her head. The amount wasn’t small. After all, it took merely ten or so days for a single trip. One hundred and fifty yuan was considered as fairly high wages. Although there was risk involved, fatal accidents were few and far between. Robbers tended to favor money over causing harm. Additionally, Hu Haiyun recruited men capable of defending themselves in times of danger.
