Chapter 57 – 57 100,000 Per Year

57 100,000 per Year

“Son, the company's registration has been completed.” Just as he had gotten home and finished his dinner at night, Chen Li returned home and handed the relevant company documents and seal to Li Chengqian.

Thereafter, the old couple returned to their room and checked the employment ads on their phone app.

Other than registering a company for Li Chengqian that today, they had been looking for a job outside. After walking around for an entire day, they still couldn't find a suitable one. The old couple's worries were written all over their faces.

One can see worry in their eyes.

“I see that this company is hiring cleaners. The salary is more than 2,000 yuan. Let's give it a try tomorrow.” After Chen Li saw a message, she discussed it with Li Tianlan in a low voice. They spoke very softly as they were afraid Li Chengqian would hear them.

“You used to work in finance and treasury management. It's better to find related jobs. Forget about manual work. It's tough and tiring. You're old and your health isn't good.” Li Tianlan didn't agree with Chen Li at all.

“Old Li, at a time like this, do we still have a choice? We should just find a job first and jump ship when there's a suitable one.” Chen Li shook her head.

To be unemployed and sitting at home was driving her nuts, she wasn't the type to sit still.

Although the two of them were discussing very softly and ordinary people would definitely not be able to hear their discussion, Li Chengqian could hear everything very clearly.

When he was reborn, he had sworn to let his parents live a good life. How could he let Chen Li be a cleaner?

“No, Dad and Mom have been busy all their lives. They can't stay idle at all.”

“Moreover, Dad and Mom have always been worried about money!” No matter how much they try to cut corners, their family's monthly expenses still come to 10,000 yuan. Although Li Chengqian had given his parents 30,000 yuan, this money would be used up in no time.

It wouldn't last long.

If he could not stabilize his family within three months, there would be big trouble at home. He would have to borrow money to maintain his family.

Actually, Li Chengqian totally understood Li Tianlan and Chen Li's thoughts.

“I had thought that my parents would be at ease after I received the prize money for the Junior Informatics Programming Competition.” However, the anxiety his parents were showing now made him understand that neither Chen Li nor Li Tianlan have the patience to quietly wait for that day to come.

That was because the finals would only be held a month later!

If they had to wait for 30 days, every day would be a torture for them.

“I have to think of a way to find something to keep them busy.” Li Chengqian looked at the information on the company that had just been registered and suddenly had an idea. He wanted to upload the Divine Dragon Data Restoration software to the Internet. Just like other software, he would charge a usage fee.

At this moment, Qin Datong's message came.

“Li Chengqian, we've already tested your Divine Dragon Data Restoration software. The software works very well. It's indeed more advanced than any data restoration software on the market.”

“We've reported the results of the test to our superiors.”

“There's one last question I need to confirm with you.”

“How much are you going to charge for the Divine Dragon Data Restoration software?” Qin Datong had already reported the test results to Chief Zhao. Chief Zhao's position was very clear. As long as the price did not exceed 200,000 yuan a year, he would sign the contract with Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian looked troubled. Although he had written the software and knew that it was more advanced than any data restoration software in the world, he had never studied the pricing issue.

He needed to go online and see how the other data restoration softwares were priced.

Qin Datong sat in front of the computer. He waited and waited in vain for Li Chengqian's reply.

“Xiaoqin, what's going on? Are you done? We're still waiting to use the software!” The person who spoke was Wang Dawu from the Criminal Investigation department of the Municipal Bureau. After hearing that the Internet Security department had a software that could restore the data from hard disks, he came looking for Qin Datong in the middle of the night.

“Xiaoqin, what's wrong with you? Why haven't you negotiated the deal yet!”

“Xiaoqin, stop dawdling. Just ask him if he would take 200,000 per year!” Wang Dawu said loudly as he walked over anxiously.

Qin Datong had a bitter smile on his face. “Brother Wang, who would quote their maximum price upfront! Why don't we wait a little longer and wait for him to quote a price?”

“Xiaoqin, what are you waiting for? We're not a company, so we don't have to consider profit and loss! Our duty is to uphold justice, keep peace, fight criminals, and bring them to justice.”

“As long as we achieve these goals, the money spent is worth it.”

“The Divine Dragon Data Restoration software has been tested by you. It's the most advanced software. It can restore hard disk data that other softwares can't recover!”

“I remember that the data restoration software you bought last year cost 200,000, right?”

“Then why can't we use the same price to buy a more advanced software now?” Wang Dawu opined.

Qin Datong could only smile bitterly. “Brother Wang, I'll listen to you. I'll ask Li Chengqian what's going on.”

“Li Chengqian, how about 100,000 per year?” Qin Datong thought about it. Although what Wang Dawu said was very blunt, it did make sense. Then, seeing that Li Chengqian still hadn't replied, he took the initiative to send a message.

However, he quoted half the amount he budgeted.

Li Chengqian was still researching the pricing of other data restoration softwares on the Internet. He wanted to do a summary and then give Qin Datong a quote. At the same time, he thought about researching the pricing of other softwares so as to make a price list for personal subscriptions.

However, he realized that it was not easy to do so because the price range of data restoration softwares was too wide. The most expensive one was 500,000 a year, and the cheapest one was free. Ordinary softwares cost less than 1,000 a year.

“This is too troublesome. After the company's framework is set up, I'll only be in charge of software development. I'll find a specialized person to be in charge of everything else.” Li Chengqian's head was throbbing.

Just then, a message from Qin Datong popped up.

“The first offer is 100,000?” When Li Chengqian saw this price, his heart skipped a beat and he became excited.

Although this price was not very high compared to the most expensive data restoration softwares out there, it was still a huge sum of money for Li Chengqian.

Since Qin Datong was willing to offer 100,000 on his first try, it meant that there was still room for negotiation.

Li Chengqian knew this very well.

However, Li Chengqian also knew that the Municipal Bureau's purpose for buying this software was to fight crime.

Therefore, after mulling over it, Li Chengqian decided not to bargain with Qin Datong.

“Okay, I agree. Thank you, Brother Qin.”

When Qin Datong Li Chengqian's message, he was stunned for a moment and said in disbelief, “Why didn't this kid bargain with me?”

Then he thought of Li Chengqian's age and he felt a trace of guilt. He thought to himself, “Is this considered bullying a little kid?”

The two of them immediately proceeded to discuss the terms of the software purchase.

They agreed to sign the contract at the Municipal Bureau the following morning.

“Big Brother Wang, why do you think Li Chengqian didn't bargain with me?” Qin Datong looked uneasy.

“Ha, Li Chengqian is just a 17-year-old kid. How can he bargain with you? You're simply bullying the kid.” Wang Dawu joked.

“Hurry up and install the software. I want to see for myself if the Divine Dragon Data Restoration software is as amazing as you guys claimed.” Then, Wang Dawu urged impatiently.

“Over the years, our department has accumulated 56 hard disks from which data couldn't be restored. These involved 37 cases. I've already asked someone to bring the hard disks over.”

“We have to work overtime tonight to recover the data!”

“As long as the data is restored, I'll arrest those bastards tomorrow and send them to the prisons.” The suspects of these 37 cases had to be released as there was insufficient evidence in the past.

The police officers were all seething with anger.

Because they couldn't crack these cases, their bosses reprimanded them and kept applying pressure on them.

“I'll work overtime with you guys too. Let's see how effective the Divine Dragon Data Restoration software is in actual combat!” After Qin Datong heard Wang Dawu's words, he became solemn.

Qin Datong felt the same way as Wang Dawu. People have to pay for their crimes!
