Ten minutes later, someone asked Ms. Wang to go out again, probably to communicate with Charlie Tang.
After another ten minutes, Charlie Tang and Ms. Wang returned to the conference room.
Neither of them looked very good-looking.
Lu Ming drank coffee slowly. Not to mention, he was often served coffee on different occasions in Beiguan recently, but the coffee served to the guests by this lawyer was of the best quality. It was fragrant and delicious.
Use high quality coffee beans.
As for this case, we can’t really blame this firm for being ignorant.
Today is similar to the period when modern law was established in my previous life. The rapid advancement of science and technology has also led to the revision of many old laws. At the same time, the progress of humanities has further promoted many principles of modern law.
I read through the cases of this era myself, and compared them with previous lives, my experience is very obvious. This also makes me pay close attention to various new cases, and I am also very sensitive to the new cases that represent the progress of the law.
Naturally, a small local lawyer of Charlie Tang's level wouldn't pay that much attention.
With a livid face, Charlie Tang wrote a number on a piece of white paper and pushed it over.
Lu Ming opened it and looked at it. It was "500" and smiled, "Lawyer Tang, if you don't want to waste time, I hope your client can show sincerity."
"You should show your client this number to see if she is satisfied or not. Please abide by the lawyer's rules!" Charlie Tang said with a stern face.
Lu Ming smiled and said, "My client has given me instructions. If it is less than 2,500 yuan, there is no need to discuss anything."
Charlie Tang suppressed his anger, "Your client only spent 700 yuan to purchase this machine. Even if the maintenance fee is included, it only costs 1,100 yuan!"
He turned his head and talked to Ms. Wang. Ms. Wang nodded, and he rewrote a number and handed it over.
This time the number above is "1000".
Tang Charlie said with a sullen face: "This is our last offer, otherwise, we will see you in court!"
Lu Ming spread his hands, "So, what about the rent during the shutdown period, and the workers' salaries? Also, what about the income my client should have during this period?" After a pause, "As for the mental damage my client suffered because of this matter,
My client is willing to give up this aspect of compensation."
Tang Charlie sneered: "Your client's laundry has few customers even when it is open. Is it possible to open a laundry in that location?"
Lu Ming took a sip of coffee and said calmly: "That's because the laundry is open today and broken tomorrow, which makes the customers lose confidence. I will prove this to the judge and jury." Looking at Ms. Wang, "Wang
Economically, if you go to court, I will probably thoroughly check all your previous transaction records. You should have sold a lot of second-hand electrical appliances. I believe it is not just my client who has suffered this kind of loss. I will try to find as many as possible.
Victims, when the time comes, I hope you, Ms. Wang, will be prepared to handle the class action lawsuit."
Ms. Wang’s expression suddenly changed, and Charlie Tang stood up suddenly, “Lawyer Lu, you are threatening my client!”
Lu Ming leaned back on his chair and spread his hands indifferently.
I feel funny in my heart. I look like I deserve to be beaten, but that's what lawyers are like. Intimidation and inducement are empty words, and it's the last word to win the maximum benefit for the client.
Ms. Wang's face turned green and white. She leaned over and said a few words in Tang Charlie's ear.
Tang Charlie frowned and wanted to persuade, but she waved her hand with a firm attitude.
Ever since she discovered that her lawyer had no idea what the other party's lawyer said, so she had to check the information, she lost confidence in Charlie Tang.
Tang Charlie was helpless and ordered the affairs officer next to him, "Go and prepare a settlement agreement." Then he said to Lu Ming: "2,500 yuan, but you have to sign a confidentiality agreement!"
Lu Ming looked at Pan Mila, "Mrs. Pan Mila, if I pay 2,500 yuan in compensation, do you agree to sign a confidentiality agreement?"
Pan Mila was stunned, and Lu Ming leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Don't act too happy, calm down, calm down..."
"Ah..." Pan Mila came back to her senses, her long and beautiful gem manicure almost pinched her thighs, she nodded lightly: "I agree..."
Charlie Tang looked at Lu Ming and said, "Lawyer Lu, I hope I have the opportunity to learn from you in court in the future." He was probably depressed to death, and even more unconvinced, but being able to use the word "learn" to a rookie lawyer, obviously
, subconsciously already felt that he was at a disadvantage.
Lu Ming smiled and did not argue with him.
…
In front of the clock tower building of the Imperial Bank Beiguan Branch, Lu Ming was sitting in the passenger seat of the Snow Dragon Phantom, looking through the fashion magazines in his hands in boredom.
With the sound of footsteps, Pan Mila walked back and sat in the driver's seat. She must have transferred Ms. Wang's check to her account.
2,500 yuan, probably Pan Mila didn’t even have that much savings when she first moved to Beiguan.
After going around and around for a few months, I actually made money.
Pan Mila opened the beautiful rose-colored handbag, took out the checkbook from it, wrote a number, tore it off and handed it to Lu Ming, "This is yours."
Lu Ming took it and looked at it, and was startled to see the number "1,000 yuan" on it.
"Too many!" Lu Ming smiled.
"I'm worried that you think it's too little! This time, there's Bisi's scene." Pan Mila's deep blue eyes were filled with gratitude, "I know the rules, and the money is not much."
The two parties involved in this lawsuit did not formally sign an agency agreement, but generally speaking, in this kind of lawsuit regarding the amount of compensation, since the two parties do not have a formal agreement, the default fee is based on the proportion of the target amount, and the lawyer's commission is 10% to 30%, as well as labor costs.
Material fees, time-consuming consultation fees, etc. are calculated separately.
Pan Mila was obviously paid according to the maximum commission, and Bisi's lawsuit was so beautifully fought that the 100 yuan lawyer's attorney fee was well worth it.
Then, I rounded up an integer.
Lu Ming looked at the check and nodded. This woman is not stingy.
"Now that you have money, do you still want to open the laundry? I can make the rent cheaper for you." Lu Ming said with a smile.
Pan Mila looked at him with blue eyes, "A few days ago, you told me that you were going to provide me with a job opportunity, have you already taken it back?"
Lu Ming was startled for a moment, then smiled and said: "Of course I didn't take it back, but I didn't expect..." Aren't you worried that he had ulterior motives?
Pan Mila stared at him: "I found that if I work for you, maybe my good luck will come."
If in Bisi's case there was some feeling that the judge had some sympathy for her daughter's young age and dismissed the case, then in the case just now, it is obvious that this young lawyer, neighbor and landlord is really an extraordinary person.
character.
It's not that he just won the case, but that from beginning to end, his performance was simply not on the same level as the other party's lawyer.
Although I was very ignorant when I was young, I often think back to my parents' teachings now.
When I was a child, I saw many outstanding people and big shots coming in and out of my home. Those top big shots seemed to be born with certain qualities.
And this young man, without a doubt, should be one of them.
It may be difficult for ordinary people to meet such an outstanding person in their lifetime.
And to be able to cross paths with such a person is, in fact, a very lucky thing.
Such people usually don't do anything special for the sake of beauty. Their thinking is not on the same level as ordinary people.
Of course, he definitely wanted to help himself for no reason, but no matter what, if this opportunity slips away from his hands, he may regret it in the future.
Moreover, if such a person is confused by his appearance, it is actually something to be proud of, right?
What am I thinking about?
Pan Mila was startled suddenly and sighed softly in her heart. Sometimes, she admired the loyalty concept of the people of Central China. Being proud of being able to charm men was the way of thinking in her previous world. This was the way noble women, such as her mother, were.
But I didn't expect that myself, and subconsciously, it was the same. The blood of the ethnic group was really not that easy to change.
However, what should I do if he is really obsessed with me?
Pan Mila was a little confused for a moment. From an emotional and intellectual point of view, it would be very embarrassing to be entangled in the relationship between a man and a woman by a man from Central China.
Of course, Lu Ming didn't know what Pan Mila was thinking. Seeing that she was suddenly in a daze, her blue eyes were confused for a while, and she seemed a little ashamed for a while, he stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her eyes, and said in a rough voice: "Hey, hey! It's thundering to collect clothes!"
"
Pan Mila came back to her senses and couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that she was thinking too much. He, he was really different.
Getting along with him makes people feel very comfortable.
Pan Mila sighed softly, "You think I'm stupid, don't you? I've thought about it, this money has paid the wages of the workers, and there is nothing left. If I want to pay for Bisi's schooling, I also need to rent a house.
I want to provide Bisi with a good life and not let her worry about me at such a young age. If I don’t agree to the opportunity you give me now, I will definitely regret it in the future!"
Lu Ming smiled and stretched out his hand, "Okay, then I officially welcome you to join my team!"
Pan Mila was stunned, hesitated, and stretched out her fair hands with light green nail polish to shake hands with Lu Ming, "Okay, old... boss..."
The pronunciation of "Boss" in Western language is similar to "BOSS". She used the pronunciation of "Boss" in Western language to ease the embarrassment when calling someone else boss for the first time. This has nothing to do with whether Lu Ming is from Central China or not. Even when she was in decline, she still had
My pride is that I have never worked for anyone.
Lu Ming smiled and said: "My team finally has two people now!"
Pan Mila was stunned and suddenly laughed, "You, you are the polished commander!"
Her smile is very similar to Bisi's, both very sweet, but in fact, she is only a twenty-three-year-old girl.
Lu Ming smiled and said, "What? You regret it. Let me tell you, a verbal promise is just as valid. If you regret it now, the check you just deposited is not enough to compensate you."
Pan Mila shook her head gently: "I never regret anything I do."
Lu Ming was startled, but he didn't expect that she would suddenly become serious.
Pan Mila then smiled and looked at Lu Ming with her blue eyes: "Boss, I don't know why, but I started to like you!" She chuckled again: "Don't get me wrong! I'm not the one who likes you. You Central-Continent people will always misunderstand you.
We said we liked it.”
Lu Ming snorted, "Do you think you can love me if you want to?" He rolled his eyes, opened the car door and got out of the car, and said, "Let's go see Bisi and go upstairs to play with Hanzhu.
Bar?"
Looking at Lu Ming's back, it took Pan Mila a long time to figure out what "I'm not someone you can love if you want" meant, and she smiled again, inexplicably feeling very good.
He got out of the car and chased after him, following Lu Ming.
She is very tall, not much shorter than Lu Ming. She is a beautiful young Western woman in a red tutu skirt that reveals her smooth shoulders and creamy back. She has blond hair and blue eyes, is tall and sexy, and has alluring snow-white feet wearing red high heels.
Her voice was full of confidence and grace as she walked beside Lu Ming, making Lu Ming feel like he had returned to his previous life.
