Chapter Twenty-Nine: Chongde
Early in the morning, Chongde Law Firm on the edge of the North Third Ring Road ushered in a strange guest, this guest was dressed in a famous brand, and his age was not very old, but his face was pale as if he had powdered, it was obviously a hot July, and the pedestrians on the street wanted to take off a clean one, but this strange guest wrapped himself tightly, and even let the little girl in charge of the reception turn off the air conditioner, even if he was sweating profusely, he couldn't stop shaking, Wang Chongde sighed in his heart as soon as he entered the door, thinking that this young man probably couldn't live too longγ
"My name is Leng Qingshan, and I want to ask you to find a benefactor. The young man coughed twice, spat out a mouthful of blood on the white handkerchief, and said in a trembling voice: "I, I don't have more days to live, but, but, I don't want to go away full of regrets." β
"Mr. Leng, do you want to make a will?" Wang Chongde waved his hand, let the little girl in charge of the reception pour a cup of hot tea, replaced the ice water on the table, and then asked with a sympathetic face: "I don't know what characteristics the person Mr. Leng is looking for, and what does Mr. Leng want to leave for him?"
"This is a certificate of property issued by a notary public, and I, I still have some savings, these things, all of which are left to the benefactor. β
Leng Qingshan trembled and took out a thing from the briefcase beside him and put it on the table, Wang Chongde looked down and only glanced at it, his pupils widened a lot, he only felt pitiful at first, but he never thought that it was worth more than 10 million, this thing is the property certificate issued by the notary office, it is clearly written in black and white, so many zeros, even if it is something on paper, it is also extremely shocking.
"Two hundred thousand. Leng Qingshan took two breaths, took out two dozen dollars and put them on the table tremblingly, and said weakly: "This is a deposit of 20,000 yuan, after the matter is completed, 200,000 thanks, you can write it in the contract." β
"So much?" Wang Chongde was taken aback, he really received three or four thousand yuan of labor dispute cases on weekdays for this kind of small matter, and even one or two thousand yuan more, which belonged to a divorce property lawsuit, and he could only knock on a deal if he didn't know how to do it, after all, in Beijing, where there are so many things, it is simply too difficult for a small lawyer like him who has no reputation to make money. Although the number is indeed tempting, Wang Chongde still asked cautiously: "I don't know the person Mr. Leng is looking for, is it easy?"
"It's easy, it's not easy. Leng Qingshan smiled bitterly and sighed: "It is possible to have a name and a surname, there are more than fifty people, but I don't know which one this benefactor is." β
"Is there such a thing?" Wang Chongde was stunned for a moment, frowned in embarrassment and said, "If Mr. Leng doesn't know which benefactor is the benefactor, this matter may drag on for a long time." β
"That's true. Leng Qingshan said with some aftertaste: " A few years ago, I was an unknown little magician, performing everywhere, the technique is not clever, has been exposed many times, every night, I think of my ugly appearance during the day, I can't sleep, but one day, I fell asleep, suddenly in my head sounded a cheer, suddenly remembered a performance, although many people were laughing at me, but there was indeed a person applauding, the cheer imprinted in my head, has been inspiring me, and then although I don't do magician, but when I think of that cheer, I feel that life is no longer so dark, this is what I have nowγ β
"Then how did Mr. Leng find these more than 50 people?" Wang Chongde asked with some curiosity: "Mr. Leng has so many viewers, it's also a needle in a haystack to find it, right?"
"I'm ashamed to say that. Leng Qingshan coughed twice, smiled self-deprecatingly, and said: "At that time, I performed more than a dozen times, and there were only a few people at a time, but fortunately, I have a good memory, I finally remember what they look like, I found a detective, and I made a list, what you have to do is to gather them together, let me perform another magic trick, the person who cheered, sure, will shout again, as long as I listen to this voice, I can recognize him." β
"Is this method okay?" Wang Chongde glanced at Leng Qingshan in disbelief, and after a while, he smiled bitterly: "I do my best to do this kind of thing, but it's hard to guarantee!"
"The money won't be missing you, even if you can't find it, the 200,000 yuan, I will pay you, what you have to do is try your best, if you can't find it, it's fate..."
"Maybe Jiren has his own natural appearance, and Mr. Leng doesn't have to be like this. Wang Chongde laughed, countless thoughts flashed in his heart, and finally made up his mind, among these more than 50 people, find a flexible mind, he doesn't think that this Leng Qingshan memory can really be good, just by the voice can recognize the person back then, if you try, there is really a possibility of fishing in troubled waters to get this inheritance.
"Lawyer Wang, do you know why I found you?" Leng Qingshan smiled, and suddenly asked a question that Wang Chongde himself couldn't understand, according to this kind of big case, he casually Baidu, or even casually stroll around this street, he can find a good firm, but it is much stronger than his own big cat, two kittens of small workshops, his own reputation, Wang Chongde himself is no longer clear, good ones don't need to be found, that's simply not, speaking of bad, that's too much, for example, a few days ago, the Labor Judge Division, Wang Chongde collected money from the boss of the other company, and sold the bitter master as soon as he turned around, this kind of thing, he did too muchγ
"Shall we fall in love?" Wang Chongde squeezed out a reluctant smile and said curtly: "Sometimes in a lawsuit, find a lawyer, this kind of thing, fate is also very important." β
"That's not it, Lawyer Wang, you can't remember me, but I can remember you. Leng Qingshan showed a deep smile and said lightly: "Lawyer Wang is afraid that he can't remember, the little girl on Chaoyang North Road." β
"What little girl, I, I don't remember. Wang Chongde's face changed, and he quickly said with a smile: "Mr. Leng, I'm afraid I'm mistaken, I don't seem to have been to Chaoyang North Road." β
"That's right, it's Lawyer Wang. Leng Qingshan smiled and said slowly: "I was also nearby that day, and when Lawyer Wang kicked away the little girl who asked for food, I also shouted hello, Lawyer Wang was afraid, didn't you hear it?"
"That's the thing, that's it, Mr. Leng, listen to me, that girl, is a liar..."Wang Chongde suddenly started to worry when he heard it, that was when he passed by occasionally, and met a little girl who asked for food, he gave the little girl a kick in his impatience, and then ran away, although he did it rightly, but it was really shameful to say it, a thirty-five-year-old man, to bully a five or six-year-old girl, no matter what the reason, it was disgraceful.
"You don't have to explain, you're doing the right thing. Leng Qingshan waved his hand and said: "Lawyer Wang doesn't know, that little girl is insatiable, I have passed by many times, I don't know how much money, but this little girl has intensified, when I gave five yuan, she was grateful to Dade, but after giving a few big tickets, she gave another five yuan, but it was cold and cold, and it didn't look good, I wanted to do this for a long time!"
"Oh, Mr. Leng, what you said is so right, that's what you mean, I can't be angry with her, and then when I went over, I saw that her heart softened, and she gave another hundred, you say, I'm soft-hearted!" Wang Chongde got this excuse, so he naturally climbed up the pole and made up some reasons.
"I think that since everyone has the same temper, they can naturally be trusted, lawyer Wang, let's draft a contract, this matter can't be delayed. Leng Qingshan coughed twice, spit out a mouthful of blood, and Wang Chongde hurriedly went out with the assistant to get a contract and came back.
"Lawyer Wang, three days later, in Jingpu Garden, there will be my last performance, I hope you will invite these guests there, and then tell everyone the original story of this matter, as for the cheers, there is no need to mention more, I think of that benefactor, I will still shout out. Leng Qingshan sighed, put a letter on the table again, and said very seriously: "Here is the invitation I prepared, Lawyer Wang, you have the identity of a lawyer, I think everyone will believe in you more, I know that this day is a bit rushed, but please Lawyer Wang must invite everyone, because, this is my last wish!"
"Mr. Leng, please rest assured, I will do this seriously. Although Wang Chongde is not a good person, after all, he took other people's money first, and he sighed in his heart, and said without hesitation: "Even if it is tied, I will tie people up to Mr. Leng!"
"Not yet. Leng Qingshan smiled, waved his hand and said: "It is very clear what is written in the invitation, this is about the whereabouts of the thirteen million inheritance, it is a pie falling from the sky, no one will be careless, and even such a golden mountain will not be taken into account." β
"What Mr. Leng said is true. Wang Chongde nodded, but then asked a little strangely: "Then what if when Mr. Leng performs on stage, everyone rushes to applaud and want Mr. Leng to remember? You must know that this is more than 10 million, not to mention applauding, just let them kneel down and call their parents." β
"It's already arranged, and when the time comes, it's just a pre-dinner show, and I'm wearing a mask, and no one will recognize it. Leng Qingshan smiled and said, "When the time comes, I will ask Lawyer Wang to be the host!"
"Yes!" Wang Chongde smiled a little knowingly, and made up his mind that he must first ask these people if they remembered that they had once made such a cheer to an unpopular magician.
