Both parties thought they got a good deal.

There's a price to everything. And sadly, human lives are worth less than most of u guys want to believe.

^oops i used the 7500CDN ammount
44,000 isn't bad
thats at least a good 12-15 years for a typical factory worker!
Which would've been reasonable had he been in his 40s
But the poor guy was only 28 ;(

10 years worth of salary. It's not bad in China.

44,000 usd is a lot
with the 1 child policy selling your baby daughters was commonplace just a decade back in china.
I'm sure people were paying wayyy less than that.

shouldn't they be considered lucky?
i mean it wasn't too long ago that china would have just brushed this under the rug and the family gets a big fat zero.
