 “It would be impossible to get the bonus, but there might be higher subsidies for us. With 1.2 million yuan collected, the higher-ups get the bonus, and we should be able to get some of the benefits.” 

 “You guys shouldn’t have known, right? Out of that 1.2 million yuan, Chief Gu will get 60,000 yuan. He earns a 5% commission for collecting debts!” Someone deliberately tried to stir up gossip. 

But this person miscalculated. As soon as he said that, someone retorted, “That 5% commission wasn’t set specifically for Chief Gu. The rule has always been like this, but no one managed to collect the debts. If you have the ability, go earn that money yourself! If you don’t have much ability, then stop being bitter. Just think about it, if Chief Gu didn’t go collect the debt, the entire 1.2 million yuan would’ve been lost. Now, we only have 1.14 million left to collect!” 

The person who was envious immediately calmed down after hearing these words. 

It was right, everyone earned money based on their own abilities. Chief Gu had the ability to recover the bad debts, and this 60,000 yuan was what he deserved. 

Among the many people in the machine tool factory, only Chief Gu had recovered this 1.2 million yuan, so he deserved to earn this money.

 “I don’t care about the 60,000 yuan, I’m only concerned about how much we’ll get for the subsidies for this month. By the way, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, the holiday gifts should be decent this year.” 

“In the afternoon, let’s bring it up to the leaders. They should listen to our concerns. After all, we’ve recovered so much money, it wouldn’t make sense if the holiday gifts weren’t up to par!” 

The hallway was filled with laughter and chatter. Everyone seemed very happy. 

Although there were a few sarcastic remarks, most people were still behaving reasonably. 

People were quite simple and didn’t harbor too much envy.

Chu Qiao had changed into new clothes, washed her face, and tied up her hair, returning to her usual appearance. 

As soon as she came out, many people gathered around, asking how she managed to recover the debt.

“Xiao Chu, why did you dress like a beggar to collect the debt?” 

Chu Qiao was washing rice and smiled as she softly replied, “Mr. Mao always pretends to be poor, so I just acted poorer than him. I told him that we were out of food and that the children were starving. Wearing tattered clothes and making myself look pitiful is to make my story more convincing.” 

Everyone suddenly understood and nodded in agreement. While some even felt regretful, how could they not think of such a simple idea?

If they had thought of it earlier, they could have gone to collect the debts too. 

It was 380,000 yuan, with a commission of 5%, that would be 19,000 yuan. Even if they didn’t eat or drink for ten years, they wouldn’t be able to earn that much money ah!

A few of them sighed in frustration. The opportunity had been right there, but they just didn’t have the ability to seize it, letting Chu Qiao and her husband get it instead.

“Xiao Chu, your Chief Gu hit the jackpot this time, earning 60,000 yuan. That’s enough to live on for a lifetime.” Someone remarked with envy.

Others couldn’t help but agree, feeling restless. 

60,000 yuan was like an astronomical figure, they had never seen so much money in their entire lives. And yet, Chief Gu had earned that amount in less than a month.

In comparison, this fact made people infuriated!

Chu Qiao’s expression turned somewhat angry and resentful, and she complained, “Gu Ye hasn’t slept well or eaten properly this month. He even kept dreaming about the debts. Those who owe money act like important figures and speak so harshly. Gu Ye has always been pampered since childhood in his family, how could he ever suffer such kind of treatment? There were several times he came home so angry that he couldn’t eat, I felt so distressed for him, and I even told him to give it up, it was not like we really need this money to buy food for living, so why should we have to suffer like this!”  

Everyone couldn’t help but nod in agreement, “Some people are just scoundrels. It’s them who owe the money but they act as if they’re doing you a favor, so shameless! Many people from the factory have gone to collect debts, but those who couldn’t stand it didn’t last a day before they were driven to tears. Just like Scholar Yang from downstairs, he went to collect a debt and came back crying on his first try. Collecting the debt is really not easy.”
