For Le Tong, thirty thousand, is equivalent to her going without food or drink for three months. For Sister-in-law Zhang and her husband, even if they went without food or drink, it would take them more than a year to save up that amount. The couple not only has to pay rent but also support their daughter. I've heard that every month they also have to send money back home to their elderly family. Adding it up, it might take the couple two to three years to save thirty thousand.
Le Tong sat silently on the sofa for a while, then asked Sister-in-law Zhang, "Sister-in-law, do you know where Brother Zhang was taken?"
"At the City Management Brigade at the street corner just ahead." Although Sister-in-law Zhang wasn't familiar with this city, she could clearly state the location, as she had probably visited Brother Zhang before.
However, the couple, who have no connections in this city, had no option but to find a way to pay the fine.
