My partner finally stepped up

My partner's son refuses to do chores unless he is paid. If he is asked to do a chore he starts bargaining as to how much he needs to be paid. We were making dinner last night. His dad asked him to help him tidy the kitchen afterward. He tidied his area and wanted his dad and I to give him a pound each for him to tidy up for our area. I told him that I should charge him for his dinner then. He said very smartly, that we had to feed him but he didn't have to clean up after us. My partner then gives him a bit of a talk about how we all do tasks for the family and so on.
