33 Morning Play
Although the specific business plan has not been obtained, the financial and legal reports have begun to be written one after another, and Lin Yilong's former colleague and current partner, McGonagall, is completing the "investigation inquiry" and "audit" with Nils with a few assistants, and has purchased insurance specifically for this merger and acquisition.
Unlike the practice insurance, which is almost "completely useless" in the domestic industry, the common law system makes a very detailed distinction between the practice of lawyers and the "client entrustment", the former is only a profession and there is no so-called "practice insurance" or "professional insurance", while the latter is provided by insurance companies for law firms and entrusted clients β at least in England and Wales, insurance companies will provide protection against certain legal acts, such as contracts, mergers and reorganizations, and "contingencies" in the sale and purchase of land.
For example, in the course of the merger, Mr. Merck's family business will investigate and recommend the purchase of "accident insurance" for all law firms, and the insurance company will "compensate" the losses caused to the client due to the accident: correspondingly, Lin Yilong must prove that he must fulfill the "due diligence" investigation obligation in the entire case, such as the need to organize and retain all the original documents such as reports, meeting records and hearing records, and legal reports that elaborate on the logic of legal opinions. Of course, the standard of negligence in different cases is mostly determined by the Bar Association's disciplinary committee β so that their clients will be compensated by the insurance company. Although, the number of claims for the occurrence of "accident insurance" for this special profession is only a handful.
Therefore, when everyone around Lin Yilong was working hard, he and Katie were tired of it until nine o'clock every day, and he would get out of bed.
Even with her job on the local county commission, Katie didn't throw away her job as Lin Yilong's assistant, coordinating the work between several partners.
"I want to remind you. Katie stretched lazily, "The object of your old crush, that Bonnie of Xiangjiang, is in London in a week, how are you going to settle her?"
"Does she need me to arrange it?" Lin Yilong was puzzled, Katie knew that he and Bonnie did not have any intimacy beyond friendship, "let her join McGonagall's team, and the specific work will be done by McGonagall Ampere." β
"I mean, we're not qualified to hire trainees yet!" Katie reminded.
"It doesn't matter, I remember that the request is ......" Lin Yilong then recited the specific request.
"But if you do, there's no way we can get Bonnie a work visa. Katie explained her words, "Don't forget, according to the latest Home Office documents....."
"Can you do this for you?" Lin Yilong asked.
"The best way now is for Bonnie to re-enroll in a legal practice course. Katie explained why, "According to the five-year limit, she actually exceeded this time limit last year. β
"So, you mean to let me talk to Bonnie about her internship?" Lin Yilong thought for a moment and askedβhe knew that Katie definitely didn't just want to mention that.
"Yes. Katie replied, but did not continue to prompt Lin Yilong.
"Forget it..."Lin Yilong thought about it for a moment and found the trap that Katie had set for him.
It stands to reason that Lin Yilong should not have paid for Bonnie, although he believes that Bonnie can still afford it - but this is obviously contrary to Lin Yilong's promise three months ago.
"I'll send Bonnie an email explaining what's going on, and you should go to the practice school you think Bonnie should attend. Lin Yilong made a final decision on this matter.
"Okay. Katie replied happily, finally making Lin Yilong feel a little embarrassed and happy - she finally had a place to "retaliate" against Lin Yilong a little.
The two then got up to have breakfast, and the sky outside the window was pulling a thin line of rain, which made Lin Yilong and Katie, who had come out on vacation, feel unhappy - they had no plans for this day.
"Well, I finally understood why Napoleon said that England was a country of 'little grocers', and in such weather, I also had the urge to open a small shop, and then drink coffee boredly and wait for customers to come to the door. Lin Yilong said to Katie while drinking coffee.
"Don't make a fuss. "There weren't refrigerators or dry storage rooms, and with your lifestyle, I thought 'our' grocery store would be closed within 10 days of opening." β
β...... So, thanks to stocks and bonds, colonial activity was preserved. Lin Yilong put forward his opinion, "Otherwise, there would be no Livingstone or Rhodes, so that the issuance of bills has become the most profitable industry, so Britain is not so much a 'country of small shopkeepers' as the largest colonial financial empire at that time....."
"Don't you want to open a grocery department!" Seeing that Lin Yilong's topic was getting more and more off-topic, Katie reminded.
"I now think it would be nice to open a grocery department that specializes in bill trading. β
"Don't talk about that. Lin Yilong immediately changed the subject, "I hope you can join the Whig Party, they are about to vacate in my constituency in Kingston-on-Thames, I hope you can seize this opportunity." β
"But I'm not part of the Whigs!" replied Katie.
"Join!" Lin Yilong persuaded, "Your current resume is enough to play a role in the Whig Party." β
"Are you sure this is a good time?" asked Katie, uncertain.
"Whether it's or not, it depends on whether Katie believes that Katie can be chosen!" Lin Yilong encouraged, "Other problems are not too big a problem in my opinion. β
"You mean to say that let me just be influenced by you to enter Westminster?" Katie closed her eyes, Lin Yilong's words just now have ensured that he will definitely give himself support in various aspects, because Lin Yilong's promise has not been fulfilled - but whether to be this MP according to his own ideas or as an MP controlled by others, although the position is the same, the means are not different, and Cady himself has a very subtle feeling gap.
"Ask Katie herself whether you have made up your mind to enter the Palace of Westminster for that vanity, for voter duty, for wages and subsidies, or for some other reason. Lin Yilong replied with a smile, "As for me, it's just to fulfill Katie's long-standing wishes, I think this opportunity is good, that's allβif it's for that influence, your senior brother has a lot of other people, I can always find some help, and I don't need Katie to worry." β
