Lawyer's character

"I can't say that I'm familiar with him. I handled his brother-in-law's case, so I just know him." Fang Yi's heart moved. Sister Lan would not mention Zhou Deguang for no reason. There must be something wrong.

"Brother, I won't hide it from you. Our construction company under Shengfeng Group has done several projects of Defa Construction. Now the projects are completed, but the final payment of the project funds has been delayed.

I have already inquired with Party A, and the money has been distributed. Now it is stuck in Defa Construction. Although the people from Defa Construction said they would settle the settlement for us, there has been no movement. We cannot bear to be dragged on like this. We will have it soon. It’s Chinese New Year, and migrant workers are waiting to get money to go home for the Chinese New Year. "Sister Lan plays the emotional card with migrant workers!

"Sister Lan, I understand what you mean. But I really don't have any friendship with Zhou Deguang. Let alone buy it or not, it's hard to say whether I can see Mr. Zhou." Fang Yi grinned.

He thought he really didn't have the ability to ask for money for the project.

"Brother, I won't embarrass you. You can try and see if you can make an appointment with Mr. Zhou. If you can make an appointment, just mention our Shengfeng business." With that, Sister Lan took an envelope from the bank and put it in the square. In front of Yi: "This is the hard work fee. If it is successful, I will definitely thank you very much!"

"Sister Lan, how is this appropriate? Taking money without doing anything..." Fang Yi felt that he was not getting rewarded for his efforts, so he had to contact him no matter what, and then collect money after he succeeded, so as not to be poked in the back by others saying that he recognized the money but did not recognize it. People, not to mention that the other party is still his old customer.

"Just take it if you give it to me. I'm using your resources. Others want to give it away. I can't even find the temple gate with the pig's head!" Sister Lan said with a straight face.

What Sister Lan said is true. Since Zhou Deguang came to Defa Construction as the vice president, many people want to curry favor with the powerful Mr. Zhou, and Sister Lan is no exception. However, not everyone can enter Mr. Zhou’s circle. . Sister Lan made several appointments with Zhou Deguang, but they ignored her at all. Sister Lan didn’t even know where to send the cash!

Fortunately, the cooperation between Shengfeng Group and Defa Construction was quite pleasant. Sister Lan felt that the big heads at the top could not be reached, so it was okay to maintain the small heads at the bottom. After all, the county magistrate was not as good as the current one, so she arranged for her subordinates to I kept in touch with the people from Defa Construction, invited me to have dinner and sing songs every now and then, and we got along very harmoniously. But who knew that the year-end settlement was stuck, and the money couldn't be released without Mr. Zhou's signature.

"Okay, I'll try my best, but I can't guarantee the result. Just listen to me these two days." Fang Yi said and stuffed the envelope into the pocket of his down jacket.

At around ten o'clock the next morning, Fang Yi picked up his cell phone and found Zhou Deguang's number, but he didn't move it for a long time. He pondered for a long time and thought about what to say.

The Spring Festival is coming soon, and Zhou Deguang, who is busy entertaining guests and giving gifts, is on his back. He has not had dinner at home this month. He sings every night and eats delicacies, which makes him a little tired of eating.

Zhou Deguang was still a little dazed when he walked into the office in the morning. He drank too much last night, took the waiter's hand and called his sister, and he didn't know how he got home. When he woke up in the morning, the lingering effects of the alcohol were still there, causing his head to ache.

The assistant made him a cup of tea and placed it somewhere within reach but out of the way. After the assistant walked out of the office, he leaned on the boss's chair, closed his eyes and rested, thinking about which partner's business should be taken care of after the Spring Festival, and which partner needed to be hammered.

At this moment, the cell phone rang. Zhou Deguang raised his eyelids and glanced at it, wondering: "Why did Lawyer Fang suddenly remember to call me?"

"Hello, Mr. Zhou, I would like to wish you a happy New Year in advance! I wish you a happy New Year and all the best!" After Fang Yi answered the phone, he first said New Year's greetings to connect with him.

"Thank you, Lawyer Fang. I also wish you a prosperous business!" Zhou Deguang smiled.

"Mr. Zhou, you've been very busy recently, haven't you?" Fang Yi said.

"Yes, the Chinese New Year is coming up recently, and there are a lot of things that need to be dealt with. What can I do for you?" Zhou Deguang said smoothly.

"It's a small matter. It's the Chinese New Year soon. I want to treat you to a meal. I wonder if it's a convenient day for you?" Fang Yi walked down the slope as soon as he came.

Zhou Deguang frowned, not expecting Fang Yi to invite him to dinner: "Let me take a look at the latest arrangements." After saying that, Zhou Deguang pretended to flip through the calendar in front of him: "It will be tomorrow night, but let's not drink, let's drink tea instead , I’ve been drinking a little too much these days.”

"No problem, I'll find you a good place to drink tea. I'll send you the address later." Fang Yi said excitedly. He didn't expect Zhou Deguang to agree to his invitation so readily.

The reason why Zhou Deguang accepted Fang Yi's invitation was firstly because Fang Yi had a good impression on him, and he felt that having multiple lawyers with strong professional abilities around him only had advantages and no disadvantages; secondly, because of Zhou Shen's relationship, and the relationship between Zhou Shen and Fang Yi. Very good, Zhou Deguang knew it. Now that Zhou Shen's status in the heart of the group boss was getting higher and higher, Zhou Deguang felt it was necessary to give Fang Yi some face and build a good relationship with Zhou Shen's people.

After confirming the time, Fang Yi called Yunmei and asked her if there was a place to drink tea at the teahouse in the city. Yunmei told him that there are several tearooms on the second floor of Yunwu Tea House, and the environment is very good and suitable for talking.

Half an hour later, Fang Yi sent Zhou Deguang the location for tea.

At 8:30 pm the next day, Fang Yi was making tea in the second-floor tea room of Yunwu Tea House. When he was in the county before, he learned how to make tea from Sun Lianpeng. Although his skills were average, he still had no problem entertaining customers.

Zhou Deguang sat opposite him and looked at his tea art with a smile.

"What a shame! My tea-making skills are really average." Fang Yi smiled awkwardly.

"It's not bad. After all, you are a lawyer, not a tea artist." Zhou Deguang picked up the tea cup, first looked at the color of the tea soup, then smelled the tea aroma, and then took a small peck: "Well, not bad, authentic. Old white tea.”

Seeing Zhou Deguang like this, Fang Yi felt relieved. He remembered that the last time he met Zhou Deguang, the latter chose old white tea, so this time he specially asked Yunmei for the best old white tea to entertain Mr. Zhou.

"Lawyer Fang, are you still working at that law firm in the county?" Zhou Deguang put down his teacup and said with a smile.

"I'm no longer there. In July last year, I transferred to a lawyer in the city to practice law. I started at Jinshi Law Firm, and after the Spring Festival, I planned to transfer to Wanhua United Law Firm." Fang Yi said.

"Hey, these two law firms are both big ones! Jinshi Law Firm is headquartered in Beijing, and Zhou Shen is a partner at that law firm. Wanhua United Law Firm is also good, it is the largest local law firm.

Lawyer Fang, this is not an afterthought. I already knew that sooner or later you would have to come to the city to develop. There is too little room for development in the county. "Zhou Deguang's eyes showed surprise.
