Chapter 481: Argument between Ruozhu and Mother

The coachman stared at Bai Ruozhu as if he was dumbfounded, seemingly not believing his own ears, he asked, "Are you really not making me sign the Indenture Contract?"

Bai Ruozhu just smiled and nodded.

"Why... why hire me?" the coachman asked cautiously.

Bai Ruozhu's smile grew broader. Though the man seemed naive, he was not ignorant. He knew to ask for clarification.

"First of all, you have both a horse and a carriage, which saves me the trouble of buying them myself. Secondly, you seem to be a trustworthy person. Finally, it seems that you know how to take care of horses. I noticed on the way to Beiyu City that your horse was well cared for. Covering the same distance, your horse appeared less strained than others," Bai Ruozhu explained.

Wa San, the coachman, looked surprised. "Quite the eye for detail, madam. My family used to breed horses; it wasn't until we fell on hard times that I began working as a couchman."

"How much do you earn in a month?" Bai Ruozhu asked.
