Chapter 764 - Front Bar
"Okay, let's not think too much about whether there is someone in the back, spring ploughing is coming, we don't have time to delay, Bai Ko, what kind of quick solution you said?"
Hedong Village was leased by Gu Yun, and he had to calm down first if he was angry.
"Just now, Steward Rong said that because of the relationship between the hired peasants, every man and woman in the village who has reached the age of fifteen has signed and drawn a pledge, right?"
"Yes, it's all signed." Steward Rong nodded again and again, "It's not that I'm boasting, the Ning family has been an imperial businessman for decades, and the lessons and lessons have been summed up, and now we will definitely pay attention to all the details." ”
"That's what I want." Bai Ko shook his fingers and lightly pointed at Steward Rong, "I haven't read the contract signed by the villagers, to be honest, I really haven't followed up on the things on the farm from the beginning, Princess Cheng takes care of them, and the various contracts that come and go are also directly kept by our son, but Steward Rong is so easy to do." ”
"Where's the easy work?" The crowd inside and outside the screen pricked up their ears.
"Fight a lawsuit, a collective lawsuit, and notify all the men, women, and children in Hedong Village who signed and detained them to the court, they can tear up the contract, and the sale cannot be benevolent, and the Yeguo Mansion has always abided by the law, so compensate for the loss of the prince according to the agreement of the broken contract, and the water conservancy fortifications built in their village must also be paid according to the price, and then it is their business to use it, anyway, we don't rent this village......"
"Huh?!" Everyone was taken aback, they didn't expect Bai Ko to come up with such an idea.
"Yes, you heard it right, a collective lawsuit with Hedong Village is called a frontal bar, we must not spend our time on arguing with them, if there is really someone behind the villagers, what the people behind the scenes want most is to let us fall into endless bickering to distract our energy, and we can't fall into such a trap. We always insist that the villagers insist that they are in the hands of our sons, so they want to tear up the contract, so they will go to court to argue between right and wrong. ”
"I'm afraid the villagers will blow up the pot." Gu Yun and Gong Changji were still thinking about it, and Steward Rong took the lead in saying.
"What do we have to do with it? The signed contract is torn apart, and they themselves first despise the law, but the sons of our Yeguo Mansion must act according to the law, and the public says that the public is justified, and the mother-in-law says that the mother-in-law is reasonable, then go to court. Are the villagers of Hedong the people of this dynasty? Do you have to obey the law? Can we sue them if they break the law first? Our son is a civilized person, a gentleman who does not use his hands, opposes any form of violence, is reasonable, and says that if he does not clean up, he will go to the court to ask the lord to judge, we do not play conspiracy and tricks, we only use yang to crush a qiē cow, ghost, snake and god openly. ”
Bai Ko first stood at the height of obeying the law, which not only made Gu Yun and Gong Changji's faces smile, but Ning Peilan behind the screen almost laughed, and Steward Rong looked at Bai Ko a lot.
"But Hedong Village is the largest of the five villages, and the number of people who have signed and signed the pledge alone is more than 1,000, how can this collective lawsuit be fought?" Since he wants to take the road of litigation, he naturally has to consider the problems and difficulties clearly.
"Our son is the plaintiff, and taking the defendant to the court for questioning is a matter for the yamen officer, and it has nothing to do with us, but we also have to make some preparations in advance for the defendants with more than 1,000 people, and we need to ask the prince to convene a well-known lawyer to form a group of five to ten lawyers, in order to show your determination to resolutely fight the lawsuit, don't be afraid of the problem of lawyers' fees, if the prince wins the lawsuit, it is natural that the villagers who lose the lawsuit will pay a fee, including the lawyer's fee."
"Bai Ko, you are talking so lively, can this lawsuit really be fought?" Gu Yun didn't worry about money, he really didn't lack money now, but he just felt that Bai Ko's intentions didn't seem to be completely clear.
"The real purpose of the lawsuit is to put on a posture, set a benchmark, and prevent the other four villages from following suit, this is a trick to kill chickens and monkeys, and only when I go to court do I know whether the villagers tear up the contract or whether anyone is behind it, I have actually always been very concerned about the young man who Rong Guan doesn't know, he never appeared during the early negotiations, and now he has come out again, and the origin and purpose of this person can only be known in the court."
"That's right!" Palace Chief Ji clapped his hands with a smile, "If it is really revealed in the public court that someone is doing a ghost behind the scenes, it will definitely make the mastermind behind the scenes, along with the entire family and clan, lose face!" ”
"Yes, that's right, that's it, front bar, crush a qiē cow ghost snake god with a yang scheme!" Gu Yun also stroked his palms and laughed.
From behind the screen came Ning Peilan's soft voice.
"Bai Ko, what do you think this lawsuit will eventually lead to?"
"Probably the court mediated, reached an agreement, the plaintiff withdrew the lawsuit, the contract remained the same, everyone was happy." Bai Ko didn't even think about it, and blurted out.
"So sure?" Ning Peilan's voice was full of smiles, "You can say it, we can do things better when we have the bottom in our hearts." ”
"More than 1,000 defendants, as long as this paper is handed over, the whole capital will pay attention, there are saints watching, where can this lawsuit continue, maybe the defendants will not be able to all go to court, and the case can be closed directly in the field."
"But? I know you must have but. If it weren't for the screen, Ning Peilan would really want to go out and talk.
"However, if the case is closed so quietly, it will not be obvious that our son has been wronged, since we want to face it, of course, it is to make the scene as big as possible, and from the very beginning, we insisted on resolutely not accepting mediation, that is, to adjudicate, forcing Yingtianfu to bring all the defendants of more than 1,000 people to the court, and if we don't argue in court, I don't know if there is a behind-the-scenes command behind it." Of course, Bai Ko has, but his face is full of calculated smug smiles.
"If there is an instigation behind the scenes, as soon as this piece of paper is handed over, it will be a startling snake, and the young man who Rong Guan doesn't know may be killed, or he may disappear directly, and he will not see anyone alive or dead."
"This is just right, the person is gone, doesn't it mean that there is a ghost in this matter? The lawsuit was won. If the young man's wife went to court peacefully, and the argument was reasonable, and the prince lost the lawsuit and had nothing to say, if he couldn't argue, it would prove that he was messing around and maliciously dividing the relationship between the prince of the Yeguo Mansion and the villagers in Hedong, and then you can ask him if he was instructed by others, if he is stubborn and does not admit the crime, he will bear it alone, if he is not hard-mouthed, there will be a drama to watch in the future, the lawsuit will continue to fight, and the mastermind behind the scenes will be sued, anyway, the compensation for the loss of our son's reputation must be paid. ”
"That's right, if there is really a mastermind behind the scenes, on the premise that you can't make people disappear, and you can't be confessed in court, you must push this lawsuit to end with mediation and withdrawal of the case halfway. Gu Yun rubbed his chin and decided to do so.
"So a lawsuit is the best solution." The palace chief kicked Gu Yun and gave a thumbs up, "It's still your white cardamom." ”
"What are we, the shareholders, going to do? You have to show your support, right? Ning Peilan still stuck to the point.
"Of course, on the same day that the paper was delivered, write an excerpt to the palace. The prince is an imperial merchant, he must prepare an excerpt to explain the reason to the sage, and a copy of the contract must be attached to the excerpt, and he can't wait for the sage to learn about the lawsuit and then ask, the sage doesn't like this, and he will definitely be scolded at that time, and he will not get half sympathy. ”
"Well, that's right, one of the Ming people writes a book to fold it, and our shareholders will jointly sign an excerpt, don't sell grievances, just talk about facts and reasoning, the saint himself has his own decision, too much messy content will make him unhappy." Gong Changji nodded in response.
"Okay, then let's settle it first, and tomorrow I will find a few lawyers and write a pleading." Gu Yun stood up as he spoke, "I'll go back and tell my father, otherwise if he doesn't know anything about the matter, he will have to give me a lecture when he comes back." ”
"Steward Rong and your subordinates are important witnesses, and when the time comes, please speak up in court." Bai Ko smiled and bowed.
"There is no need to order this, our group of people are also scared enough, we must say it well in the court." Steward Rong smiled and waved his hand.
"Without further ado, all preparations must be made in the next few days, and at the same time, we will send someone to Hedong Village tomorrow to put on a posture of arguing, so that the villagers can not know that we are preparing for a lawsuit, so we can confuse the villagers for a few days, and by the way, in the process, we can collect more evidence, and we can also inquire about the details of the young man, and all kinds of information will be beneficial to our lawyer in court." White Kom added a little.
"No problem, Manager Rong, you work hard these days, and take someone to go again tomorrow." Ning Peilan immediately ordered to go down.
"Yes, Princess." Steward Rong bowed and saluted, although he was from the Ning family, Miss Ning Er was now the princess of the county, so naturally she had to change her name.
Gu Yun and Bai Ko immediately said goodbye, and after returning to their house, Gu Yun immediately went to see his mother, and sat until his father came home, and confessed to him again.
Because this sudden matter has to be kept secret for the time being, so at dinner time, the eldest lord and the eldest lady still went to Rongentang to accompany the old mother to dinner, Gu Yun also said that he normally went to say goodnight to his grandmother at the usual time, and then returned to Jicheng Hall, called his younger brother Gu Chen, and the family of four had an in-depth discussion again in his father's study.
As for the lawyer that his son needs, Ye Guogong also has a way to find Qi people for him, the master who retired from Yingtianfu, and the scribe who retired from the Criminal Department, all of them are capable people who are familiar with the law, and they are all masters of asking and judging cases.
