Chapter 649 - Chapter 649 Chapter 649 Double Compensation

Chapter 649: Chapter 649 Double Compensation Chapter 649: Chapter 649 Double Compensation The business deal was settled, and Young Master Chu gave Su Yunjin the earnest money. When Su Yunjin saw that he had directly given her one hundred taels of silver, she quickly tried to return it.

“Young Master Chu, there’s no need for so much earnest money, you can just give me ten or twenty taels. One hundred taels really isn’t necessary.” One hundred taels was more than half the price.

After all, earnest money was just a token, who would need so much? Su Yunjin hadn’t even delivered the goods to anyone yet, and she felt somewhat embarrassed to directly accept a hundred taels of silver from someone.

However, Young Master Chu didn’t mind, “Miss Su, keep the silver. Sooner or later, it will be yours anyway. Whether I give it to you early or late doesn’t make a difference, does it?”

Since Young Master Chu said this, Su Yunjin found it hard to return the money, so she accepted it. Having received the earnest money, it was time to sign the contract, which Young Master Chu’s servant had already prepared.

Su Yunjin quickly glanced over it and, seeing that there was nothing wrong with the content, she wrote down her own name. But when it was time to stamp her fingerprint, the words “double indemnity” made her heart skip a beat, and suddenly she had some regrets about signing such a contract with Young Master Chu so hastily.

According to the terms of the contract, if she couldn’t have the fruit wine ready for this Young Master Chu by the end of next month, then she would have to pay double the earnest money he had just given her.

Young Master Chu had just given her a hundred taels of silver! If she had to pay double that, then if there were any problems with the fruit wine she was preparing for Young Master Chu, she would have to pay him two hundred taels of silver.

The thought of paying someone two hundred taels of silver caused Su Yunjin’s hand to tremble involuntarily. Feeling that it was too much of a risk, she quickly tried to return the earnest money.

“Young Master Chu, could we possibly consider the contract we just signed as invalid? I’ll return the silver note to you,” Su Yunjin spoke in a negotiating tone to Young Master Chu, considering the double indemnity, the one hundred taels of silver suddenly became a hot potato in her hands.

Su Yunjin felt she truly didn’t dare take such a risk, as her entire net worth combined wasn’t one hundred taels of silver. Besides, she still had to buy a shop.

After the purchase, she would only have about forty or fifty taels of silver left. She had worked hard to earn this money, and if an accident happened, paying off all the money she had wouldn’t be enough to compensate Young Master Chu.

Young Master Chu didn’t understand Su Yunjin’s thinking and didn’t take the returned silver note, “Miss Su, what is this about? Are you now unwilling to sell the fruit wine to me?”

Young Master Chu stared at Su Yunjin, trying to grasp her intentions, but couldn’t figure out why she was afraid of paying double indemnity, “No, no, Young Master Chu, I’ve already agreed to sell you the wine, why wouldn’t I be willing?”

“Then why?” Young Master Chu asked subconsciously.

Su Yunjin brought the contract in front of Young Master Chu and pointed to the words “double indemnity,” “Young Master Chu, I’m not a big businessman like you, I’m just an ordinary person, double indemnity, I can’t afford to pay you.”

Two hundred taels of silver?

Selling herself probably wouldn’t even cover it!

Pah, pah, pah!

How could she be worth so little?

Su Yunjin quickly dismissed the thought.

Having understood Su Yunjin’s meaning,

Young Master Chu chuckled amusingly.

“So, Miss Su, you want to return the money to me because you’re afraid of the double indemnity?”

Su Yunjin nodded vigorously as if pecking rice grains, “Yes, yes, yes!”
