Since the payment intentions of Party A, Party B and Party C are not clear in the title, we regard Party A, Party B and Party C as passive price recipients, from which the boss can get 2 yuan. Of course, from the arithmetic point of view, the result is that Party A, Party B and Party C each pay less 1 yuan, and the boss gets less 3 yuan.
