Qin Nan went downstairs, and Bai Hao, who was sitting on the sofa, waved to him. Qin Nan walked over in confusion, and only when he got closer did he see the contract on the coffee table.
Bai Hao put down the tablet in his hand. "The trial period is three months. Take a look, and if there are no problems, leave your fingerprint."
Qin Nan stared solemnly at the antique-looking contract before him. Yes, it was a contract, but it was written in traditional Chinese characters with a brush pen, arranged vertically. Was this person playing a trick on him? Was this even a contract? Could it be legally recognized?
Bai Hao noticed Qin Nan staring at the first page for a long time. Since he couldn't see what Qin Nan was thinking, he wondered if Qin Nan had any objections or disagreed with the contract terms. This was a contract he had researched and drafted online; surely Qin Nan wouldn't disagree and refuse to put his fingerprint on it?
Qin Nan frowned more and more as she looked at the contract. She could recognize some of the characters at the beginning, but the more she read, the less she recognized. However, she remembered that Bai Hao had said that she should be able to write calligraphy, and now he was giving her a contract in traditional Chinese characters. Was he testing her skills? If she said that she did not recognize most traditional Chinese characters, would she not be able to keep the job?
Judging from Bai Hao's appearance, he shouldn't be short of money. Moreover, he threw his wallet to me even though we weren't familiar with each other, which shows that he's generous and doesn't care about money. Someone like that probably wouldn't tamper with the contract. Anyway, I'm all alone and have nothing to gain. It can't be worse than it is now.
Bai Hao watched Qin Nan's solemn expression as he carefully flipped through the contract page by page. He wondered to himself that he hadn't checked it beforehand, but the contents should be fine. Could it be that the compensation wasn't good enough? But Qin Nan had agreed when he joined the company, so there shouldn't be any objections. Besides, he was human; he shouldn't be able to detect anything.
Seeing that Qin Nan had finished reviewing the contract, Bai Hao was about to ask if she had any objections when he saw Qin Nan decisively press her fingerprint. Bai Hao glanced at the watch on his left wrist without making a sound, and a white array flashed on the dial, indicating that the contract had been successfully concluded!
Bai Hao smiled. He didn't trust human contracts; he had his own ways of restraining them. Although Qin Nan was somewhat interesting to him, it didn't mean he would trust anyone casually, especially—humans.
Qin Nan handed the contract with his fingerprint on it to Bai Hao, and took another copy for himself. He still wanted to check the contents of the contract online when he had time, but it was more important to keep it for now.
Qin Nan took the contract to her room and placed it on the bedside table. When she went downstairs again, Bai Hao was still sitting on the sofa playing on his tablet. Qin Nan touched Bai Hao's wallet in her pocket and suddenly remembered a serious problem.
Qin Nan: "Boss, here's the card PIN. I need to pay someone to repair the house this afternoon."
Bai Hao didn't even look up: "0, same password."
Qin Nan: "......" Aren't you afraid he'll run off with the money?
But it feels good, the feeling of being trusted.
Qin Nan smiled, left the house, and took a taxi to No. 77 Quhuan Road in the east of the city, following the address given by the old village chief. In fact, the destination was right there when she reached the street.
The eye-catching signboard looks like a housekeeping company called Li Family Courtyard. The shop is quite large and has a wide range of services, including house cleaning, house repair, water pipe repair, and sewer unclogging.
Qin Nan pushed open the glass door and walked into the store. The receptionist was a young woman in her early twenties. She was slightly surprised to see Qin Nan come in, but immediately greeted her with a smile.
"Welcome, sir. I'm Qiu Yue from the front desk. How can I help you?"
Qin Nan walked to the front desk and said, "Hello, I'm looking for Li Cheng."
Qiu Yue: "Okay, sir, do you have an appointment?"
Qin Nan: "Uh, no."
Qiu Yue paused upon hearing this, then said, "Please wait in the reception area while I go ask the boss."
Qin Nan: "Okay, thank you."
Qiu Yue walked into the store. Qin Nan looked down at himself. Although his clothes were clean, they were obviously very worn. The fact that the store owner could still greet him with a smile showed that the owner must be a good person, otherwise he wouldn't have such an employee.
Qin Nan walked to the reception area and sat on the sofa. After a short while, a burly man who was at least 190 cm tall led Qiu Yue out. Qin Nan was stunned for a moment, then got up to greet him.
Li Cheng approached Qin Nan with a puzzled expression. The young man, whom he had never met before, had specifically asked to see him. However, since he was a guest, he should treat him with courtesy.
Li Cheng: "Hello, I am Li Cheng. May I ask who you are?"
Qin Nan: "Hello, Mr. Li. The old village chief recommended me to contact you."
Li Cheng: "Oh, the old village chief introduced you. Please sit down. Qiu Yue, prepare some tea."
Qiu Yue responded and went to make tea.
Qin Nan understood what Li Cheng meant, but did not argue. "Hello Mr. Li, I'm here to commission you to clean and repair my family's old house. It's practically a complete renovation. The house has been uninhabited for at least two years. It needs weeding, inspection of every room, furniture repair, and other maintenance. And the time is quite tight, only one week."
Upon hearing this, Li Cheng's perception of Qin Nan changed somewhat. He had thought that Qin Nan was using the old village chief's name to ask for his help, but he didn't expect that Qin Nan was actually a wealthy man. After all, when it comes to old houses, there are land deeds. Even the smallest old house costs a lot to renovate, and if it is almost completely renovated, the price will be exorbitant.
Li Cheng laughed heartily, "You little rascal, you're subtly putting me down!"
Qin Nan smiled politely but did not reply. Li Cheng said that he was introduced by the old village chief, which meant that Li Cheng did not think highly of him. However, the old village chief said that he and Li Cheng had a good relationship. So someone must have been using his name to do something bad behind the old village chief's back. Li Cheng and the old village chief did have a good relationship, so Li Cheng took the blame himself, and the old village chief was unaware of it.
