Lawyer's character

Chapter 143 The landlord’s family has no food left.

Fang Yi had been thinking about becoming a commission lawyer before, but after winning the Cao Yueshan contract fraud case, Qian Linlin was unable to pay the final balance of 200,000 in legal fees. The money she earned previously was used to support her ex-wife and son, and now she has it in her pocket. Being shy, he could only postpone his plan to become a commission lawyer.

At the moment, he still needs to unite closely around the management of Zhengyi Law Firm with Director Sun as the core (in fact, he means hugging Director Sun's thigh tightly), take on more cases, and make more money.

Just when Fang Yi was thinking wildly, Sun Zhengyi stood at the door of the office, glanced around, and saw that everyone was waiting for him and said: "Lawyer Fang, come to the office. There is a new case that I just took, take a look."

Fang Yi was a little surprised. He had just been given a case before, and now he was given another case? What's wrong with Son Zhengyi? It's not his style.

Although he was confused, he still responded and stood up and walked quickly to the office under the gaze of everyone.

The moment the door to the director's office closed, the sound of an office chair sliding could be heard behind Zhao Zhongcheng.

"Old Zhao, Director Sun, are you confused? You just gave Lawyer Fang a labor case, why are you giving him another case? Even if we are queuing up, it's our turn!" Chu Huai lowered his voice. , for fear of being heard by a third person.

"Well, Director Sun's behavior is indeed a bit intriguing." Zhao Zhongcheng touched his chin and thought.

Judging from the previous performance of the lawyer on the other side, he disdained to handle the cases in the firm. Not to mention the lack of money, the cases were not easy to handle, so how could he sit back and handle his own cases smoothly? Moreover, Masayoshi Son didn’t give him many cases and was deliberately trying to beat him up. Why did Director Sun suddenly change his temper?

After Zhao Zhongcheng thought about it, there seemed to be only one possibility. He and Chu Huai had recently made Director Sun dissatisfied, and Director Sun wanted to use this method to beat them both.

"Old Chu, have you been doing private work recently?" Zhao Zhongcheng turned to look at Chu Huai and asked seriously.

Chu Huai was stunned after hearing this, then leaned forward one after another, waving his hands and saying: "How is it possible? You don't know this about me, no, absolutely not."

Although he said no, Zhao Zhongcheng caught a hint of panic in his eyes.

Chu Huai did do some private work. In his mind, there was nothing that a drink could not solve. One drink was not enough, just three. In order to get the source of the case, he invited the channel dealer who was stationed at the orthopedics department to drink. After three drinks, the matter was finally settled.

In the future, for all cases involving the hospital's orthopedics department, the channel merchants will give priority to Chu Huai. In return, Chu Huai's commission to the channel merchants will be one percentage point higher than that of Sun Zhengyi. Of course, this amount is calculated privately.

So here’s the question, Chu Huai’s commission is higher than Director Sun’s, so what does he earn? The answer is that he transferred the cases given by the channel dealer to a lawyer in the county who had just started practicing law and had no case source.

He previously met a young lawyer named Li who had just obtained his lawyer's license. Since this young lawyer had no business, he advertised on the newsstand in front of the court to solicit business.

Lawyer Li is only involved in trivial matters all year round, such as writing complaints and replies, answering legal consultations, etc. He can't collect money, and even if he takes a case, he can't afford the lawyer's fees, so his life is relatively poor.

Just when the young lawyer Li was thinking about starting a side business selling pancakes in front of the court, Chu Huai found him and the two hit it off. Chu Huai provided the source of the case and he did it. After deducting the channel fee, the four Six points of the account, Chu Huai took 40%. Chu Huai suddenly changed from a lawyer to a middleman who took advantage of the price difference, and became addicted to exploiting lawyers.

Of course, Zhao Zhongcheng didn't know all this. He just vaguely felt that Chu Huai might be like him. He got a few letters and took on a few cases privately, but the lawyer's fees were not charged. Little did he know that Chu Huai had done more than him and his income was more stable.

"Okay, you haven't figured it out yet." Zhao Zhongcheng stared at him and said.

Chu Huai was a little uncomfortable being stared at. He was about to say something when he heard Zhao Zhongcheng continue: "These days, the brave will starve to death, and the timid will starve to death. It's the same in our industry. Don't worry. I won’t tell anyone.”

"Look at what you said, how could I do something that would harm our company? I am so upright and selfless." Chu Huai felt a lot more at ease when Zhao Zhongcheng said that he would not report him.

"That's a good thing to say. It's all for the long-term development of the law firm. We won't do things that harm others and benefit ourselves. Don't forget about me, brother, if you have the opportunity to make a fortune in the future." Zhao Zhongcheng said with a meaningful smile.

He was thinking that he could ask Lawyer Chu for a letter or something in the future so that he could exchange information. Lawyer Chu was wondering in his heart how much this guy knew and whether he should give him a piece of the pie.

"Lawyer Zhao, thanks to the help of you and your wife last time, our children's schooling was settled. If we are free in the evening, let's have a drink." Chu Huai changed the subject.

"Didn't you two already thank me some time ago? There's no need to go to such trouble." Zhao Zhongcheng said not to go, but in his heart he honestly wanted to get some help from Lawyer Chu, because the landlord's family had no surplus food.

Zhao Zhongcheng felt depressed when he mentioned the last treat. In addition to the fees for entrusting the relationship, Chu Huai secretly gave Zhao Zhongcheng a red envelope of 10,000 yuan. It happened that Zhao Zhongcheng's daughter-in-law Tan Guihua saw it. Everyone was in front of him. The person who came up was polite and accepted the red envelope.

Zhao Zhongcheng was smart enough to take out half of the red envelope and keep it while he was going to the bathroom. After returning home, he handed the red envelope to his daughter-in-law Tan Guihua.

Tan Guihua took out five thousand yuan and counted it, and immediately frowned. She had seen it before, and the red envelope was very thick, so without saying anything, she took out a family trick - a feather duster.

As a last resort, Zhao Zhongcheng took out another 5,000 yuan from his bag and offered it to her. However, he gave up on the sweet-scented osmanthus because the total amount in the red envelope was 20,000 yuan, which was still 10,000 yuan short.

Now Zhao Zhongcheng was dumbfounded. Oh my conscience, where did 20,000 come from? Under the coercion of the feather duster, poor lawyer Zhao emptied his small coffers and only managed to collect 3,500 yuan, and finally settled the matter with an IOU.

Zhao Zhongcheng's heart aches when he thinks about this.

Chu Huai naturally didn't know what happened to the Zhao family, and said: "The last time was the last time, and this time is this time. We brothers haven't gotten together for a long time, and this time I'm treating Taiyueju."

"Hey! Taiyueju, that place is not cheap. Lao Chu, are you rich?" Zhao Zhongcheng's eyes lit up and he smiled.

"The director gave me a few cases last month and I made a little money. Treating guests has to be ceremonial. Taiyueju in our county is only a bit high-end, so I can only wrong you." Chu Huai grinned. Dazui said.

Although he said this, Zhao Zhongcheng always felt that he was showing off. After get off work, the two of them got on an electric bicycle and headed towards Taiyueju.
