"Of course not."
Liu Caidie's expression was a little unpleasant. "My mother knows about this, so you don't need to worry about it."
Besides…
Her gaze swept over the people who were watching the drama unfold. "With them here as witnesses, are you still afraid my dad won't admit it?"
"Of course I'm afraid, your substitute teaching spot must not be cheap."
Yang Shujue curled her lips. "Why don't you tell me the price first? If I think it's reasonable, maybe I'll buy it."
"Five hundred dollars."
"Pfft~"
As soon as she announced the price, Peng Shiyu, who was drinking water, spat it out.
Even Lin Jingyu was stunned by the price.
It's just a substitute teaching spot, yet they're asking for 500 yuan.
"Do you think I'm a sucker, or do you want me to think you're crazy?"
Yang Shujue was so angry she laughed.
Even if she was prepared to spend money, she never thought of spending 500 yuan to buy a substitute teaching spot.
Perhaps the people in front of us are overreacting.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Liu Caidie's face.
Actually, she didn't set the price. Her mother said that the educated youth who built their own houses in the educated youth compound had money.
Take this opportunity to ask for more money so I can buy her a dowry.
She originally wanted 100 yuan, but her mother quoted 500 yuan directly.
She was also very surprised at the time, and thought it was unlikely.
On the contrary, her mother was full of confidence, saying that although the price was a bit high, the wealthy educated youth would definitely agree to it.
So she believed her mother's words.
They quoted such an exorbitant price right off the bat.
"Five hundred yuan? You really dare to dream of that."
Yang Shujue's eyes flashed with annoyance. They really thought she was a fat sheep to be slaughtered. "Liu Caidie, go back. I can't afford your substitute teaching spot."
"You don't want it anymore?"
Unexpectedly, Yang Shujue refused.
For a moment, Liu Caidie's mind went blank.
She wanted to use the money from selling substitute teaching slots to prepare her dowry. If the richest educated youth, Yang, was unwilling to buy, wouldn't her slot be unsellable?
No, it should be said that it couldn't be sold at the price she wanted.
"It's not that I don't want it, it's that I can't afford it."
Yang Shujue rolled her eyes. "Five hundred yuan is enough for me to buy a regular job in the county town. What do I need your substitute teaching slot for?"
Peng Shiyu nodded and said, "Five hundred yuan can build a new courtyard, but it's not worth it to buy a substitute teaching spot."
“It’s not easy for an average family to come up with five hundred yuan.”
Lin Jingyu chimed in, "The price of one substitute teaching position in our rural area could buy several brides."
This price is really exaggerated.
This isn't just asking for an exorbitant amount; it's practically insulting.
"No, it's not."
Liu Caidie's expression changed again.
Feeling a little flustered, she quickly said, "If the price is too high, you can suggest a price."
In order to obtain a generous dowry, they directly relinquished control.
"Should I make an offer?"
Yang Shujue was slightly surprised.
At the same time, it's clear that the teacher really wants to sell the substitute teaching spot to him.
Thinking of this, she felt secretly pleased.
If she could really buy a substitute teaching spot from Liu Caidie, she wouldn't have to worry about competing for it anymore.
"Yes."
Liu Caidie didn't dare to expect an exorbitant price; she only hoped it would be within her acceptable range.
"Eighty dollars."
Yang Shujue thought for a moment and then offered a price that was neither too high nor too low.
"Only eighty yuan?"
Perhaps the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
Liu Caidie, who had hoped to receive 100 yuan, found it hard to accept the price of 80 yuan.
"Liu Caidie, eighty yuan is already quite a lot."
Yang Shujue looked speechless. "Normally, getting a wife only costs a few dozen yuan. You don't really want several hundred yuan, do you?"
"Eighty dollars, that's too little, a bit too little."
Liu Caidie was a little afraid to meet Yang Shujue's gaze, and kept thinking about asking for more.
After all, such opportunities are rare.
"Fine, fine, I'll give you a hundred yuan at most."
Yang Shujue certainly wasn't short of ten or twenty yuan.
I just don't like being taken advantage of.
"One hundred yuan..."
Although this was the price she initially wanted, her mother had already tempted her to be greedy.
Even if Yang Shujue were willing to pay 100 yuan, she would still think it wasn't enough.
"What's wrong with you?"
Seeing her hesitant and timid manner, Yang Shujue became displeased again. "You were the one who asked me to name a price, so why are you unwilling to accept it now that I have?"
"Fine, if you don't want to, then don't. Go find someone else."
"Yang Zhiqing, could you add a little more?"
This time, Liu Caidie completely lowered her guard, her tone pleading, "I really need some money, please."
"It's your business if you need money."
Seeing the substitute teaching spot in her hand, Yang Shujue patiently argued with her, "You can't force me to buy this substitute teaching spot."
Although I want a substitute teaching spot and am willing to spend money to buy it, I'd be a fool not to teach. I'll give you as many as you want.
Besides, I don't have a few hundred yuan to give you.
"No, I didn't say I wanted several hundred dollars."
Liu Caidie, her face full of shame, still bit her lip and said a 'high price': "Could you give me one hundred and fifty yuan?"
"You~"
Yang Shujue was furious.
I don't even know how to respond to this greedy woman.
Lin Jingyu, who had just watched a good show, almost burst out laughing.
