Lawyer's character

"Your base is still comfortable. You can climb mountains or go down rivers when you go out. They are all natural landscapes. The scenery here is all man-made." Fang Yi said.

After the dishes were served, everyone ate and drank. Fang Youcai took out the Maotai that Yunmei had bought for him before, and drank a bottle with Shengzi and Fang Yi. I had something on my mind so I didn't drink much.

After eating, Fang Youcai chatted with Yun Qiao and others in the living room and watched TV. Fang Yi took Shengzi to visit the teahouse.

"Your tearoom is well decorated." As soon as Shengzi entered the tearoom and saw the Chinese mahogany furniture in the room, he was very grand and full of praise.

Fang Yi's tea room is more than thirty square meters. There are various tea leaves on the wooden shelves on the side, and there is a faint fragrance of tea floating in the room.

"This is all arranged by your sister-in-law. Come, sit down. I'll make you a pot of Dianhong to go away the cold." Fang Yi said and began to play with the tea set: "How is the company's business recently?"

"The company's development momentum has been good recently. The county has approved another piece of land, and the company is planning to expand its scale to raise not only sheep, but also chickens, ducks and cattle." Shengzi sat down opposite Fang Yi.

"Oh?! I don't understand about breeding, but living animals are afraid of getting sick. If you don't have enough funds, don't force it. We ordinary people don't have gold and silver behind us, we can only rely on ourselves. We must keep some surplus food at all times.

Don’t always listen to the nonsense from above. Our law firm’s non-litigation team has taken on several acquisition cases, all because we took too big a step and ended up with problems in the capital chain. Fang Yi said while making tea.

"Yes, I understand." Shengzi nodded.

He is a relatively conservative person, and what Fang Yi said coincides with his thoughts. In fact, the county asked him to expand the scale as early as a year ago, but he found excuses to evade it.

"Do you have something to say?" Fang Yi raised his eyelids and glanced at Shengzi opposite him, feeling that his expression was a little unnatural.

"Yeah." After hearing what Fang Yi said, he felt a little embarrassed about having a baby. He didn't want Fang Yi to think that he came here to give the sheep to someone else and to give gifts, but things happened again and he had to say it.

"Shengzi, we have been friends for many years. If you have anything to say, just say it. There is no one else in this room." Fang Yi said and handed Shengzi a cup of black tea.

After Shengzi took the tea cup, he sighed: "The cross talkers say: The poor man can't reach his relatives with ten steel hooks on the crossroads, and the rich man can't beat away the unjust guests and friends in the mountains and forests with swords, guns, swords and halberds."

Fang Yi was stunned after hearing this. Could it be a family matter? You can't take care of your own affairs at home, and it's hard for an upright official to deal with household affairs.

"This is absolutely true. My wife has a cousin named Lu Wei. In the past, our family was poor and relatives and friends avoided her. I have been married to my wife for several years and I didn't even know she had a cousin.

In the past few years, my family's life has improved, and her relatives have come over to ask for help. In fact, they have only one purpose, to take advantage. I feel sick looking at it, but there is nothing I can do about it. " Shengzi said.

Fang Yi listened quietly.

“My wife’s cousin Lu Wei opened a store in the county, and he usually sells household appliances and the like, which is a bit small-scale.

In May last year, I don’t know what connections Lu Wei used to get the commission from the County Finance Bureau, and his store became a sales outlet for the county’s home appliances going to the countryside subsidy on behalf of the direct subsidy.

Two months ago, I suddenly received a call from Lu Wei's wife, saying that Lu Wei had been arrested and asked me to help find a way to fish him out.

When I inquired about it, I found out that Lu Wei secretly purchased 80 identification cards for home appliances going to the countryside. He used the policy of selling the home appliances going to the countryside to advance subsidies first and then pay them from the finance department. He fabricated false sales advance information and defrauded the national home appliances subsidy. The township subsidy fund is more than 40,000 yuan.

Later it was found out and Lu Wei withdrew all the stolen money. The procuratorate charged Lu with corruption and filed a public prosecution with the County People's Court.

I don't know anyone in the judicial department, and I don't want to help his family with this relationship. Originally, I wanted to ask you to defend Lu Wei, but his wife has already hired a lawyer, so I didn't mention it to you.

Later, the county court sentenced Lu Wei to two years in prison for committing corruption. " Shengzi said.

"Corruption?" Fang Yi was startled. How could a small shop owner be charged with corruption?

"Yes, it's corruption. I brought the verdict. I received the verdict this morning. Lu is dissatisfied and wants to appeal.

His wife came to my house crying and shouting, with runny nose and tears. I looked really upset and had no choice but to come here.

Brother Yi, see if there is any hope in this case. Shengzi said, handing a copy of the judgment to Fang Yi.

"The county court believes that the defendant Lu Wei was entrusted by state agencies to manage state-owned assets and took advantage of his position to defraud state-owned property of 41,560 yuan, which constitutes a crime of corruption..." Fang Yi looked at the verdict.

Shengzi has said everything that needs to be said, now it's up to Fang Yi.

"Reluctance should constitute a crime, but I think there is something wrong with the crime in this case.

Lu Wei is neither a civil servant nor a state worker, so he should not be eligible for corruption. His act of applying for and advancing the subsidy funds for home appliances to the countryside should not be considered an official act, but he falsely reported that he had received the subsidy funds for home appliances to the countryside. Conduct may constitute fraud.

The amount involved in this case was not large, and all the stolen goods were returned. I think we can get a suspended sentence. You can give it a try.

Let's do this. Ask Lu Wei's wife to come to the law firm tomorrow. If she is willing to entrust the law, we can give it a try. I can’t say whether it will be successful or not. "Fang Yi said after putting down the verdict.

"Okay, I understand what you mean. I'll call when I get back and ask her to go to the law firm to find you tomorrow." The matter was done. Shengzi felt very comfortable. After chatting with Fang Yi for a while, he picked up the tea cup and saw that she was almost there. At nine o'clock, I got up and said goodbye.

It was getting late, and Fang Yi wanted him to stay at home, but there was a meeting at the company tomorrow morning, and Shengzi had to rush back. Fang Yi and Yunmei sent Shengzi to the door, and Shengzi's driver drove over and picked him up.

The next morning, Fang Yi received a strange phone call from Lu Wei's wife, Ma Ji, who made an appointment to come to the law firm for an interview at three in the afternoon.

There was nothing else going on in the morning. Fang Yi and Sui Xia continued to study the case sent by Song Hui. Soon Song Hui also ran over with a big teacup and joined in the case study.

"This case, from yesterday afternoon to now, Sui Xia and I have read the case file no less than three times. In the future, we can only look for breakthroughs in the number of unique items." Fang Yi leaned on the chair, rubbed his temples, and then looked at the table from the table. He picked up the cigarette case, pulled out a red plum, stood up, walked to the window, opened the window, lit the red plum and said. (End of chapter)
