Chapter 933: Law Firm
From a thief to a wealthy man in Weihui Mansion, what an inspirational story.
But this has appeared countless times in the long history of China, because since ancient times, there has been a "prince and prince will have a kind of Xiangning", and many children from poor families also want to get ahead, unlike the West has a very deep-rooted class concept.
Then this is not an unusual thing in Weihui Mansion.
Bang bang bang!
Guo Dan looked down at the familiar and unfamiliar porcelain toilet under the chicken, looked up at the ceramic pipe, was stunned for a while, suddenly smiled, and then lifted his pants and went out.
"Uncle, how do you feel?"
Dechenchen, who was guarding the door, hurriedly asked.
"Not bad!"
Guo Dan nodded, and wondered: "There are so many people in the workshop, how many mechanisms do you have to do here, is it cost-effective?" ”
Chen Chen hurriedly said: "The workshop doesn't use this kind of toilet, only the rich can afford it, they have a ditch over there, and then flush it regularly." ”
"Flush regularly?"
Guo Dan was shocked.
The appearance of the flush toilet is not very surprising to him, this urbanization will inevitably have this demand, although China does not have a theory in this regard, but the technology is still available, and the genius craftsmen can also produce some machinery according to the demand.
The disadvantage is that it is very personal, it is difficult to popularize, and there are very few inventions that can be derived.
But to say that there is a timed flush is really an exaggeration.
Chen Chen said: "Thanks to Mr. Li for bringing the bell tower to our Weihui Mansion, now everyone is used to looking at the clock, each workshop has a big bell, and all of them are placed on the thatched house, now our Weihui Mansion wants to find a thatched house, just look at the clock there, it is because Guo Bo connected the bell mechanism with his mechanism, and then he can flush the water regularly, even Mr. Li praised him for being very smart." ”
"What a genius, he deserves to be rich."
Guo Dan couldn't help but shake his head.
At this moment, the next person came to inform that Wang Yu, president of the court, Xue Wenqing, president of the litigation court, and Jiang Yinglan, vice president, asked to see him.
Guo Dan hurried to the lobby.
"I'll take the liberty to visit, so I didn't disturb Consultant Guo."
Wang Yu laughed.
Guo Dan shook his head and said, "No, no." I'm not an idle person either. As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Yinglan again and said, "Vice President Jiang, are you still used to being here?" ”
Jiang Yinglan shook his head and said, "This Weihui Mansion is the same every day, I'm afraid it will be difficult for anyone to get used to it." ”
"Haha.....!"
A few people exchanged pleasantries for a while.
Wang Yu said with a straight face: "Consultant Guo, in fact, I came here today because I have something to discuss with you. ”
"Dean Wang, please speak."
"Now this lawsuit is getting more and more day by day, and our court really can't handle it."
"Hmm."
Guo Dan nodded and said, "I will increase the court's expenses." ”
Jiang Yinglan suddenly asked, "Then I don't know who can be the judge?" ”
Wang Yu frowned.
Guo Dan said: "Of course it's a squire, this is a rule that has been set a long time ago." ”
Jiang Yinglan said: "I think judges are very important, and they should be virtuous and capable, just like litigators, who pass layers of examinations and are selected." ”
Wang Yu was very angry and said: "Could it be that in the eyes of Vice President Jiang, this squire can be anyone." ”
Jiang Yinglan shook his head and said, "I have no intention of doing so. ”
Guo Dan nodded and said: "Dean Wang is right, the people who can become squires must be sages, and they also have experience in dealing with disputes in the township, this point will not be changed, and the president of the court must be selected from among the squires." ”
Wang Yu was suddenly proud.
Xue Wenqing said: "That's right, but some presidents can't even distinguish between the law and the patriarchal law, and in some judgments, the president of the court actually uses the patriarchal law as the basis for the judgment, which is really unreasonable." ”
Wang Yu's old face flushed, looking a little embarrassed, but he still argued: "That's because both the parties to the lawsuit are villagers from the same township, and it is not impossible for the court to use the patriarchal law to make a judgment!" ”
Jiang Yinglan said: "But it was stipulated that if you were the president of the court, you must resign from the position of the squire, how can you still refer to the patriarchal law." ”
Guo Dan asked, "Then did they succeed?" ”
"Of course not." Xue Wenqing said: "It is impossible for our litigation court to let them make such a judgment." ”
Guo smiled lightly: "This is the duty of the litigation court, but I also think that it is not appropriate to use the patriarchal law to adjudicate, or it is stipulated that the patriarchal law cannot be referenced." ”
"There's no problem with that."
Wang Yu hurriedly nodded and said, "Actually, that's just an example, they are a little biased. I want to talk about their courts, they have to litigate, and they have to be found in the plea, and our court also has to judge based on the evidence they provide, both of which are their people, which means that they have the final say, not our court. ”
Xue Wenqing said angrily: "President Wang, as the president of the court, you can't talk nonsense, everything is up to us, and our evidence is also provided by the picket, but you have found a case to prove that we are playing favoritism?" ”
Wang Yu shook his head and said: "The old man didn't say that you were favoritism, but some people did accuse you of favoritism. ”
Xue Wenqing said: "That's just that the losing side is unconvinced." ”
"Alright, alright, you guys don't fight yet."
Guo Dan waved his hand and said: "I absolutely believe that Dean Xue, under his management, there will never be favoritism, but the system is more important, otherwise, why not leave everything to Dean Xue." "Le
Xue Wenqing hurriedly said: "Consultant Guo, I have no such intention, whoever wants to destroy the three-court system, I, Xue Wenqing, am the first to refuse." ”
Guo Dan nodded and said: "So we are all for fairness, I think the problems pointed out by Dean Wang are indeed worthy of our vigilance, the losing side will always be dissatisfied, and will inevitably vent his anger on the head of the litigation court, in order to be more fair, I think we can add a law office, which is responsible for pleasuring, and the litigation court has the same power, or litigation, but if the other party is not satisfied, or there is a dispute between the two parties, the law office can intervene." ”
He doesn't want a private law firm to exist for the time being, and he wants to control both the prosecution and defense.
Wang Yu hurriedly said: "That's what the old man meant, this is actually for the good of their lawsuit." ”
"Thank you, Dean Wang, for all your hard work for my litigation court."
Xue Wenqing sneered, where can he believe him, Wang Yu just doesn't want the litigation court to have too much power and threaten the court, but after all, he is from Confucianism and is very upright, and said to Guo Dan: "I also think this arrangement is reasonable, especially for some commercial disputes, no matter how we decide, the other party will not accept it, which will indeed affect the reputation of our litigation court." ”
"Then it's decided." Guo Dan nodded, and said, "Oh, there is another thing, I want to discuss it with you." ”
Wang Yu asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Guo Dan said: "Do you know Guo Bo? ”
Wang Yu said: "How can I not know, he is the first person in our Weihui Mansion to change from transporting dung to a wealthy businessman, and at the same time, he is the first person to transport dung as a wealthy businessman." ”
Guo Dan was stunned for a moment and said: "I only know that he has changed from transporting dung to a wealthy businessman, but where does this wealthy businessman start when he goes to transport dung?" ”
Wang Yu said: "He instigated others to fight in order to fight for territory, but he was arrested again and fined for three months. ”
Xue Wenqing asked, "Why did Advisor Guo mention this person?" ”
Guo Dan sighed: "That's the case, I heard that he invented the flushing mechanism, I also tried it just now, it is very easy to use, and it is also very helpful to our Weihui Mansion, in order to reward his invention, I hope the court can stipulate that within the four mansions, anyone who produces this kind of mechanism must pay him 30% of the profit." ”
Jiang Yinglan said: "This kind of thing should not be handed over to the court to do, right?" ”
Guo smiled lightly: "But if there is no legal protection, who would want to listen to it." ”
Wang Yu nodded and smiled: "Consultant Guo is very thoughtful, there is no problem with this. ”
He also felt that there was a bit of a fuss in his heart, but after all, Guo Dan was a little partial to their court, so he hurriedly reciprocated.
As soon as Wang Yu and the others left, the landlords led by Liang Kui and Xue Fang came to the door, and they really didn't even give Guo Dan a chance to breathe!
Guo Dan can understand them, after all, he promised to subsidize agriculture a long time ago, but he has not taken action for a long time, Liang Kui and they must be anxious in their hearts!
Guo Dan didn't talk nonsense with them, and directly showed them his subsidy plan.
Liang Kui couldn't help but be stunned when they saw the subsidy plan.
Guo smiled lightly: "Isn't it more than you expected!" ”
Liang Kui sighed, and then laughed.
No amount of subsidies is too much!
Guo Dan said: "This subsidy plan not only covers the hired farmers needed per mu of land, but also covers one-third of the wages of the hired farmers. ”
Liang Kui said: "This... How embarrassing it is. ”
Guo Dan said: "So don't complain to me, why can't you use grain to make wine, you can only use melon to make wine, although the profit of grain is not the highest, but your grain is not worried about not being sold, as long as God gives face, your income is very stable." ”
"That's, that's."
Xue Fang nodded straight, after being a landlord for so many years, it was the first time he encountered this kind of thing, not only did he not have to pay taxes, but he gave them so many subsidies, which was really happy, but he didn't expect that when this grain was sold, it was to pay the deed tax, Guo Dan didn't lose money, and said: "Or Consultant Guo is far-sighted, unlike those businessmen, who are short-sighted, if this land is taken to build a workshop, what will they eat?" ”
Guo smiled lightly: "This requires mutual understanding, and the money subsidized to you is all paid by those businessmen." ”
Xue Fang's expression was stunned, and he said, "This is also true." ”
Guo Dan said: "About the development of commerce, without business, there would be no Weihui Mansion today, but at the same time, I also hope that my subsidy can make you believe that not only will I not give up agriculture, but also, I want to ensure that growing food in our Weihui Mansion will always be a profitable business." ”
This is really a reassuring pill for Liang Kui, Xue Fang and others.
They have indeed been under a lot of pressure lately, there are too many businessmen, their power is too strong, and the competition between farmers and merchants has become more fierce than ever.
And about all this, Chen Chen wrote to inform Guo Dan, and Guo Dan set a higher subsidy than before, the purpose of which is to make them feel at ease and attach importance to agricultural production, which will be an impossible policy for Weihui Mansion to change.
Until now, agricultural land has been increasing, not decreasing, and all wasteland has been developed.
After talking about this matter, Xue Fang suddenly said: "Consultant Guo, we want to introduce some people to you." ”
Guo Dan asked, "Who is it?" ”
"Wait a minute."
Xue Fang shouted outside, "Let them in." ”
After a while, I saw more than ten graceful girls walking in, although they can't talk about the country and the city, but they are all born beautiful, slim and elegant, with buds waiting to be released.
Guo Dan hurriedly said: "Thank you for your kindness, but I never raise concubines, if I really have a need, I will go to the hot spring pavilion, I advise you to also learn from me, in fact, it is not cost-effective to raise concubines, men have limited energy, how can they need it every day." ”
He knew that these big landlords had a habit and liked to give concubines to each other, but he really didn't have this hobby, instead of looking for it here, it was better to find the cute Xi'er.
The big landlords were dumbfounded, and the girls were even more shy.
Guo Dan said: "Am I wrong? ”
Xue Fang hurriedly said: "Consultant Guo, you misunderstood, I didn't want to send concubines to you, they are all our daughters and granddaughters." ”
"Granddaughter?"
Guo Dan was taken aback.
Xue Fang said: "We heard that Consultant Guo was named the first son-in-law by His Majesty, and has unlimited power, hehe, my old Xue family is very much looking forward to Consultant Guo's accession, as for the conditions for this entry, Consultant Guo himself will be determined." ”
"We are also looking forward to Consultant Guo joining our family."
The rest of the big landowners said in unison.
