Let Xinghai, Fina and Lao Cha temporarily return to the pet pen provided by the game, and Zhang Zi'an walked back quickly. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

When he returned to the door of the shop, his sweat had been dried by the autumn wind.

There was a man standing at the door, about thirty or forty years old, just as Mrs. Li described, dressed in an expensive suit, carrying a brand-name briefcase, and glancing at his watch from time to time, looking like a successful person in a TV series.

Aunt Li and her husband entertained guests across the street, and took the time to nod to Zhang Zi'an, indicating that it was this person.

"Hello, who are you looking for?" Zhang Zi'an walked over.

The man looked at Zhang Zi'an, smiled professionally, and said, "Hello, you are the shopkeeper of Qiyuan Pet Shop, right?"

"That's right, that's me. Zhang Zi'an replied affirmatively, and at the same time took out the key and unlocked the roller shutter door, "Is there something wrong?"

"Great, I saw that this place was not open just now, and I was worried about running for nothing, but fortunately, the stall owner of the early stall opposite told me to wait a while, saying that you are out for the time being. I am a lawyer in the legal department of Qiyuan Group, my name is Rong Bai, and this is my business card. The man handed over the business card.

Zhang Zi'an took the business card and looked at it. Sure enough, as Captain Sheng said yesterday, Fanxing's legal department moved quite quickly, and it was still exerting pressure in the provincial hall two days ago, and it has already come to Binhai City today, how efficient is this?

"My name is Zhang Zi'an, and I'm the owner of this shop, but you probably already know that. By the way, I don't have a business card. ”

He pulled up the roller shutter, "Outside or inside?"

Rong Bai smiled, "It's so windy outside, let's go inside and talk." It's a rare visit, and I also saw the well-known Qiyuan pet store. ”

"Then please come in. Zhang Zi'an is still more polite

As soon as Rong Bai walked into the store, he immediately smacked his mouth regretfully, "Oh, look at this trouble, why do you think this is all about it?

Zhang Zi'an immediately agreed, "That's right. As a human being, the most important thing is to be happy, do you want me to give you something to eat?"

Rong Bai put on a question mark face, but still replied politely: "No, I've eaten it." ”

In fact, the current situation in the store is much better than the previous few days, at least the broken glass and the deformed and cracked cans of cat and dog food have been swept out. The front half of the store has been affected, and it is not possible to reopen with simple tinkering.

Zhang Zi'an pointed to the chair at the cash register and said, "If you don't mind, please take a seat." ”

Rong Bai looked at this thin and shabby four-legged steel tube chair, frowned imperceptibly, and said with a smile: "It's still not necessary, there is only one chair, isn't it embarrassing for me to sit down and Boss Zhang stand? I'll just stand for a while, and I won't delay Boss Zhang too much time......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Zhang Zi'an sitting down on the recliner.

Rong Bai: "......" is paralyzed, is there anyone sitting on a recliner to entertain guests?

Zhang Zi'an knew what he was thinking, and said: "Our great leader also had 'pool diplomacy' back then, let's learn from it, how about a 'recliner diplomacy'?"

Rong Bai suddenly felt that the person in front of him was very tricky, soft and hard, soft and hard, but still reasonable, this type of role is something that every lawyer does not want to encounter. However, the fact that he was able to become one of the legal advisers of Fanxing Group and came to negotiate peace with Zhang Zian on behalf of Fanxing shows that he is not an ordinary person.

Rong Bai immediately showed a low posture that could bend and stretch, and dragged the four-legged steel tube chair and sat down with a smile, "Boss Zhang is really interesting, he doesn't play cards according to common sense everywhere, no wonder Chen Taitong was forced to be cornered and made this decision." ”

Zhang Zi'an was noncommittal and waited for Rong Bai's next words.

Rong Bai saw that Zhang Zi'an wisely chose not to answer, so he had to continue: "Boss Zhang, I won't tell you, I came today to talk about reconciliation. ”

"Reconciliation, of course I am willing, but it depends on your sincerity. Zhang Zi'an said ambiguously.

Rong Bai waved his hand lightly and said, "Boss Zhang, please don't misunderstand. I'm here on behalf of Fanxing, not on behalf of Chen Taitong. Chen Taitong's lawyer is not me, and I don't care what happens to him. ”

Zhang Zi'an was taken aback. What is the situation now? Chen Taitong is the manager of Fanxing's franchise store, and Rong Bai is the lawyer of Fanxing's legal department, why does Rong Bai not care about Chen Taitong's life or death?

Rong Bai smiled slightly, opened the briefcase, and took out a stack of documents from the bag.

"This is a copy of the "franchise agreement" signed between the head office of the group and Chen Taitong, of course, it is only a part of it, and some things related to the company's secrets have been mosaic, Boss Zhang, please see, these lines I pointed to. ”

Zhang Zi'an took the document and looked at the position he pointed.

The gist of this paragraph is: (omitted) The two parties reached an agreement in the spirit of equal consultation and friendly cooperation, Party B (Chen Taitong) has the right to operate independently and set its own prices, and Party A (Fanxing) has no right to interfere. Party B's operation shall not violate any international and domestic regulations and moral standards, and shall not damage Party A's image in any public or private occasion, otherwise the contract will be automatically terminated, and Party A shall have the right to claim compensation from Party B for losses, and the specific compensation standard is as follows......

Seriously, these densely packed lengthy terms can seem like a maze. But Zhang Zi'an finally understood this passage.

He returned the copy to Rong Bai, "I read it, what do you say?"

Rong Bai took the copy and put it back into the briefcase.

"As I said earlier, I'm here on behalf of Fanxing, not on behalf of Chen Taitong. ”

He shrugged regretfully, "Actually, I personally sympathize with Chen Taitong, but there is no way, in business, you must abide by the agreement when you sign it, and you can't treat the agreement as waste paper." ”

He raised his wrist and looked at his watch, "It's not early, and I don't want to delay Boss Zhang's time too much, so I'll get down to business." ”

"Boss Zhang, on behalf of Fanxing, I would like to formally explain the following two points to you: first, we will never interfere in the private affairs between Boss Zhang and Chen Taitong; second, if Boss Zhang decides to take legal measures to claim civil compensation from Chen Taitong, please do not set Fanxing as a jointly and severally liable person. Rong raised his face and got to the point very seriously.

Zhang Zi'an was a little blind, after all, he hadn't had much contact with the legal terms, and he was confused when he heard it.

Rong Bai didn't give him time to digest and understand at all, and immediately said: "If Boss Zhang agrees to these two points, I will provide some financial assistance to Boss Zhang in my personal name." If Boss Zhang disagrees with the second point and decides to sue Fanxing, then we can only see in court. But I want to remind Boss Zhang, you have also read the contract just now, even if you sue Fanxing, there is no chance of winning. ”

He took out a brown paper file bag from the inner pocket of his suit and laid it flat on the cashier table, "There are 20,000 yuan in cash and a statement to abandon the lawsuit, if Boss Zhang agrees, after signing the statement, the money is yours." ”

After finishing speaking, he closed his mouth and waited for Zhang Zi'an's reply.

Although Zhang Zi'an has never been in a lawsuit, he has seen a lot of TV series and movies, and how much does it cost to have a lawyer's fee to fight a lawsuit with Fanxing for several years?

"Can I take a look at that statement first?" he asked.

"Absolutely. Rong Bai pulled out a copy of paper from the kraft file - there was really only one, and handed it to him.

Zhang Zi'an took it and took a look, fortunately, there were not many words on this piece of paper, and it was simple and easy to understand.

The title is: "Declaration of Agreement to Abandon Prosecution"

The content is to the effect: I voluntarily waive the right to sue and recover from Fanxing Group in respect of case number xxxxxxxxxxx through litigation, and hereby declare.

The signature and date at the bottom are blank to be filled in.

Zhang Zi'an looked at this statement and deeply felt the sadness that he was legally illiterate.

He said, "Please wait a minute. I'm going to make a call. ”

Without waiting for Rong Bai to answer, he went up to the second floor, saw that Rong Bai was still sitting at the staircase, entered the bedroom, closed the door, and took out his mobile phone to call Xiao Yan for help.

It only rang twice, and the phone picked up.

"What's wrong?" she asked, without any fuss.

Zhang Zi'an told her the content of the statement.

"Wait a minute, I'll give my lawyer friend a call and call you back in a moment. She hung up immediately.

Zhang Zi'an turned his phone into vibration mode and quietly walked out of the bedroom, confirming that Rong Bai was still sitting at the door.

After about a minute, the phone vibrates.

He went back to his bedroom and closed the door.

"Hello?"

"Yes. Xiao Yan said simply, "This kind of statement actually doesn't have much legal binding force, and if you really want to sue, you can still sue, but you will bear a certain amount of moral blame in public opinion." ”

No wonder I only gave 20,000 yuan, it turns out that this paper statement is not worth much!

Anyway, he was going to reconcile, why not if he had money to make?

"Thank you. He hung up.

Zhang Zi'an walked down the stairs briskly, "I haven't signed for a long time, bring a pen!"
