In the afternoon, the idle barrister Zhang Xiaoke walked in an antique alley in City C, looking for his own fun.
"Boss, how do you sell this thing?" Zhang Xiaoke asked, pointing to a carved and vivid child statue on the stall.
"One hundred!" The one who looked at the stall was an old man with a simple appearance, but it was a lion who opened his mouth.
"Ten yuan!" Zhang Xiaoke took out ten yuan from his wallet and shook it.
"Okay, okay, here you go. The old man grabbed the RMB in Zhang Xiaoke's hand, handed the statue to Zhang Xiaoke, and attached a red rope.
Wearing the statue around his neck, Zhang Xiaoke went home humming a little song.
Zhang Xiaoke was very satisfied with this statue, and even took it with him when he slept.
At night, a mosquito flew to the chest of Zhang Xiaoke, who was sleeping, and after sucking the belly, Zhang Xiaoke, who had a reaction, slapped it down.
The mosquito was killed instantly, and the blood in its stomach exploded, and a little of it landed on the statue.
This statue is not an ordinary statue, but a statue made by the Daomen Heavenly Master to store spirit ghosts.
Zhao Xiaoke's blood touched the statue, and immediately activated the ownerless statue and began to automatically establish a contract.
......
Zhang Xiaoke didn't officially sign a master-servant contract with the spirit ghost and had yin and yang eyes, but his job as a lawyer still made him a little unable to believe what happened to him.
Looking at this little ghost who looked exactly the same as the doorman who was attached to the door during the New Year, calling himself the boss and floating in the air, Zhang Xiaoke was in a trance.
At the same time as signing the contract, some information about the spirit ghost poured into Zhang Xiaoke's mind, allowing him to understand some information about this spirit ghost.
This is a spirit ghost carefully refined by the people of the Daomen in the early years of the Qing Dynasty with the art of raising ghosts, and the name is called Tong Ghost.
The child ghost followed the powerful Taoist who refined him for decades, and once became the first spirit ghost in China, but in the end the Taoist died, but he was trapped in the statue, and was not discovered by Zhang Xiaoke until today.
As the first spirit ghost in the past, it is not only proficient in a variety of Taoist techniques, but also has a good aura, and other idle ghosts are not his opponents!
After confirming the authenticity of the matter, Zhang Xiaoke, who had initial contact with the supernatural world, was excited.
Zhang Xiaoke was happy for a while, and spent more than two months helping the child ghost recover his mana while learning some simple spells from the child ghost.
And under Zhang Xiaoke's strong suggestion, the child ghost changed the outdated shape of wearing a belly pocket when he appeared, and changed to wear the image of modern children's clothes.
For this reason, Zhang Xiaoke bought several brand-name children's clothes and burned them for child ghosts.
But in addition to being happy, the real problem arises, the old money is almost the same for more than two months without work, and now the house has to pay rent, the mobile phone has to be paid, everything has to be consumed with money, and Zhang Xiaoke is really short of money.
So Zhang Xiaoke asked the child ghost if he could do a "five ghost carrying" or something to make some money. The child's answer was: "Boss, you treat me as the God of Wealth, I'm just a ghost, I need money to earn it myself!" Zhang Xiaoke was angry.
In desperation, Zhang Xiaoke had no choice but to return to the firm ---- lawyer again.
After half a month of hard work, a friend finally called and introduced a client who was said to be a millionaire woman to him.
Zhang Xiaoke received her in the office.
The person who came claimed to be Su Lan, the only daughter of Su Dingkang, chairman of a company in the city, not counting the assets in her father's name, has a net worth of six or seven million, is now Chinese New Year's Eve, married to her husband for nine years, and now her husband is suing the court for divorce on the grounds of emotional discord.
According to the provisions of the Marriage Law, valuable property such as real estate that has been married for more than eight years will be divided as joint property of the husband and wife at the time of divorce.
If the divorce is decided, at least nearly three million assets will be divided by her husband, so Su Lan wants to hire a lawyer to represent her in the lawsuit, and the most important thing is to minimize her own losses.
Hearing Su Lan's general introduction, Zhang Xiaoke disagreed in his heart, an ordinary divorce case involves a large amount of property, and the lawyer's agency fee alone can collect 58,000 yuan, which is a big job.
However, divorce cases have always been a headache for lawyers, and as the saying goes: "It is difficult for a clean official to decide family affairs." It is difficult to clarify the facts and relevant evidence in the case of divorce as a substitute, because the two couples cannot verify the authenticity of the claims of both parties, so nine out of ten cases do not achieve the desired effect of the parties.
A common saying in the lawyer industry is that a good lawyer can't handle a divorce case, so for the sake of prudence, Zhang Xiaoke asked Su Lan carefully.
Ask: "Are you and your husband in free love or are you introduced?"
Answer: "The two of us are in free love. ”
Ask: "What did your husband do before you met?"
A: "He is from the countryside of the city and worked for my father's company after graduating from college. ”
Ask, "How did you fall in love and get married?"
Answer: "He was very capable after coming to my father's company, no matter how difficult the business he can do, at that time I was in my father's company to help my father handle the business, it was his talent that attracted me, after we fell in love, his talent was even more prominent, after I got married, I was at home, and my father also handed over most of the company's affairs to him because of his physical relationship, and now my father's company is actually in charge of him." ”
Asked: "Then your relationship after marriage should be good, why did it develop to the point of divorce?"
Answer: "We have been living very well since we got married, until two years ago, after my father's health suddenly deteriorated, he began to change, became silent, his face was gloomy every day, and when he went to bed at night, he often got up and walked around the house for no reason, sometimes I woke up in the middle of the night, only to find that he was sitting next to me and looking at me, his eyes were very scary, and during the day everything was normal. At first, I thought he was under too much pressure at work and had mental problems, but after seeing many doctors, he said that he was normal, and we separated after that. A month earlier, he had filed a complaint with the court asking for a divorce. ”
Ask: "Do you still have feelings for him? To put it bluntly, do you want to divorce him?"
Answer: "I have always been very good with him, although I have been estranged a lot in the past two years, I still don't understand why he did this to me, and if we divorce, it will not only cause direct property damage, but also the company that my father has worked hard to run for many years will also be in trouble, so I don't want to and can't get a divorce." ”
Question: "Through what you just talked about, I found a problem, that is, you have not had children since you got married, why?"
Answer: "In the years when we were good, I used to think about it, and I and he have no physical defects, but even if we don't have children, I can't figure out what's going on?"
Ask: "Have you ever thought about or discovered the existence of a third party?"
Answer: "There is no third party, I can be sure, because he goes to work and comes home on time every day, and accompanies me when he has time, and has no time to do other things." ”
Ask: "Think about it, are there anything else suspicious?"
Answer: "I don't think there's anything suspicious about him. ”
Zhang Xiaoke finished asking all the questions, straightened out his thoughts and said: "According to you, your husband's attitude towards you has suddenly changed drastically in the past two years, and he even asked for a divorce, and you don't want to divorce in public or private, right?"
"That's right. Su Lan replied.
"I can help you solve the problem at hand, and the first court hearing will result in a judgment of no divorce, and you can delay the divorce for a while. With this time, you can use it to save your marriage or gradually take control of the company, at least you can save your father's company, although you will lose some personal property, do you think it's okay?" Zhang Xiaoke thought for a while and said.
Su Lan hesitated and replied, "Then please." ”
