Upon hearing this, Zhang You's eyes widened slightly, a hint of surprise and confusion flashing in them.

"Hire a driver?" He didn't quite understand what that meant.

Ye Qingxue nodded at him, "Yes, it's just that people from my village sometimes need to go to Qingshui County. If someone needs to go, I'll let you know the time in advance, and you can come to the county to help pick them up."

Zhang You lowered his head, digesting the information.

"Don't worry, the time when no one has an appointment is all yours. You can bring in other customers as you like, and you'll get paid for bringing in people. I'll just take 20% of it."

Zhang You nodded, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

In this way, he will have a stable customer base every day, and he can also recruit people himself in his spare time. It can be said that he has both a stable job and the ability to earn more money through hard work.

He couldn't help but glance at Ye Qingxue.

To be honest, he wouldn't mind giving all the money he earned to Ye Qingxue.

Ye Qingxue has helped him so much, but she only takes 20% of the profits and can even help him attract customers!

Originally... he probably wouldn't have been able to earn even fifty coins a day.

This kindness made him somewhat uneasy.

"Take your time to think it over, but I'll wait until the day after tomorrow at the latest." Ye Qingxue didn't intend to pressure him.

"I agree!" Zhang You replied decisively as soon as she finished speaking.

He thought about it and realized there was no reason not to agree. Brother Ye had helped him, so he was happy to work for him for free!

"However, this commission..."

"The commission is non-negotiable, I want 20%."

Ye Qingxue wouldn't allow anyone to question this; if she couldn't even earn 20%, she might as well not do it at all.

"No, what I meant was that your commission could be increased to 70%."

Ye Qingxue was startled by his words.

"Seventy percent? You're not planning to make any money?" Seventy percent is barely enough to raise cattle.

Zhang You smiled slightly and scratched his head. "Brother Ye, you helped us drive away those two people, allowing us to continue living in Qingshui County. This is of great significance to us. If possible, I would even work for you for free."

Ye Qingxue blinked, surprised that Zhang You was actually quite grateful.

You should be on the right track by contacting him.

"It's alright, I'll take 20%." Ye Qingxue wasn't greedy; this was what the laborer deserved for his hard work.

Zhang You then became unhappy again, "No, I'd feel bad about that, let's go with 70%."

Ye Qingxue didn't like arguing about these things, so she said directly, "Then make it a little higher, 30% is fine, I won't let you do it any higher."

Zhang You was afraid that Ye Qingxue would run away and he wouldn't know who to repay her to, so he could only nod hurriedly: "Okay, then it's 30%. I'll pay back the money you helped us with diagnosis and medicine when I earn it later."

Ye Qingxue knew that if she didn't agree, Zhang You would have to argue with her, so she nodded in agreement.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I wanted to ask if you know any other brothers who can pull oxcarts. I'd like to ask for a few more people to help."

Zhang You frowned slightly and pursed his lips: "This..."

Xiao Nan excitedly patted his father: "Dad, there are two Uncle Xus!"

Reminded by his son, Zhang You raised his hand and slapped his forehead: "Yeah, those two guys are good."

But soon he became uncertain again: "But their oxcart has already been sold."

Ye Qingxue became interested: "Tell me about it."

Zhang You introduced Ye Qingxue: "Da Xu and Er Xu are my brothers. They used to drive an oxcart with me. Later, their family had a crisis and they needed money, so they sold the cart. I wanted to help them, but they wouldn't let me. Later, I was too busy to take care of myself, and we haven't been in touch for a long time."

Ye Qingxue asked, "How are they?"

Whether or not there is a car is not important; what is important is that the person Ye Qingxue is looking for must be absolutely loyal to her.

Upon hearing this, Zhang You raised his chin slightly and said with certainty, "They are both very kind. Having known them for so many years, I can say for sure that they are the kind of people who, even if they can't survive themselves, will still do their best to help others in need."

Ye Qingxue nodded slightly. "Okay, take me to meet them."

Zhang You nodded, immediately drank the medicine, and stood up: "Let's go. It's been a long time since I've seen Da Xu and Er Xu. I wonder how they're doing now."

After instructing Xiao Nan to stay home, Ye Qingxue left with Zhang You.

They soon arrived at their destination. Ye Qingxue glanced around and saw only a dilapidated wooden house, which was far too rudimentary compared to other places in Qingshui County.

knock knock.

Zhang You tried knocking on the door, but no one answered.

"Could it be that they don't live here anymore?"

Zhang You and Ye Qingxue exchanged a glance, somewhat uncertain.

I gently pushed the door open, and to my surprise, it opened very quickly.

Ye Qingxue glanced at the door in surprise. There were holes in the door, but it didn't look like it had been pried open; rather, it had been carefully removed.

They must have sold the door lock to get money.

The door slowly opened, and the area in front of it was completely empty.

"Strange, did they really move?"

Zhang You muttered a few words, stepped inside, and Ye Qingxue followed him in.

The room was dark, and the windows were all sealed off, so it was difficult to see anything clearly.

Whoosh!

A gust of wind blew by, and Ye Qingxue sensed something flying towards them!

She quickly grabbed Zhang You's arm and took a step back. A wooden basin slid past her and crashed to the ground.

Then a male voice rang out, hoarse and filled with annoyance, roaring, "I already told you, if you want to collect the debt, go find that bastard! We really have no money left! Do you want your worthless life or not?"

Zhang You recognized the voice, blinked, and tentatively asked, "Da Xu? Is that you?"

There was silence inside for a moment, then after a long pause, a hesitant voice called out, "Old Zhang?"

Immediately afterwards, a thin figure emerged, looking at them cautiously.

His eyes widened when he saw Zhang You.

"Old Zhang, is that really you?"

Seeing him, Zhang You felt relieved, stepped forward and patted his arm, somewhat excited: "Long time no see, how have you been lately?"

Da Xu seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes dimmed: "That's how it is. I have to carry some night soil every day to make a living, and I also have to watch out for those debt collectors."

"Brother, is it really Old Zhang?"

As soon as Da Xu finished speaking, a shorter figure emerged from the darkness behind him.

“Yes, not those debt collectors.” Da Xu nodded to the man.

Zhang You's eyes brightened even more. "Er Xu, you're home too!"

"Old Zhang! What brings you here today?"

The group was excited to see their old friends.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Er Xu asked, "Old Zhang, how have you been lately? I heard you've been having some trouble?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang You glanced at Ye Qingxue, then gave them a mysterious smile.

Both Da Xu and Er Xu were somewhat confused.

"Come, come, sit down and let's talk." Zhang You wanted to invite everyone into the house, but found that there was no stool in the house, only a bed.

Da Xu felt a little embarrassed, so he pulled off the thin blanket from the bed and spread it on the floor.

"There's no place to sit at home, so you'll have to make do sitting on the floor."

Zhang You wasn't really bothered by anything; he was just worried that Ye Qingxue might mind, so he glanced at her cautiously.

Ye Qingxue didn't care about these things. They had even laid out a cushion for her, which was already quite kind of them, so she readily sat down.

"I'm fine, let's sit down and talk."

Zhang You was relieved and sat down next to Ye Qingxue. "Big Xu, Second Xu, let me introduce you. This is Brother Ye, my savior."
