Ma Lu's repeated persuasion made the Shopkeeper somewhat moved, but he still felt it was a bit unfair, so she thought it over.
"Alright, I'll make a concession, this one is four-six split, I four, you six, is that feasible?"
A step back means a broader horizon, the other party has compromised, if he insists further, he might push her away.
The Shopkeeper almost agreed without hesitation, "Alright, I agree with the four-six split, you've been so straightforward, I shouldn't be stingy. I'll provide all the writing supplies, and I'll give you one hundred yuan as your hard work fee and daily nutrition allowance. By the way, where do you live? I need to visit often to check your progress, so you need to live closer."
When the Shopkeeper found out she lived outside the town, by the railway tracks, he was stunned.
"That far? That noisy? Can you stand it? No, no, it's too far. How about you move closer, I'll find you a place, but you'll have to pay for the house."
