Chapter 119: Economic Crisis
Back at the building, Juan sat in his office and waited for Lisa with trepidation.
"Hello, Mr. Juan, may I come in?"
Lisa's elegant voice, to Juan at the moment, was like a deadly noose.
But there are some things that can be solved by dodging.
"Come in, Lisa, I'm ready."
Lisa, a working woman in a white shirt and a short black skirt, places a folder in front of Juan.
Juan didn't open: "You say, how much?" ”
"I got a preferential discount from the liaison of the All-Union Rifle Association, deducting Mr. Juan's kickback, and my share, and then spared him for half a day to get him to agree to erase the fraction ......"
"Thanks, Lisa, I know you're working hard, tell me the total."
"25 million Union Coins."
Juan's face turned pale in an instant, like a condemned prisoner hearing the verdict.
He trembled his lips and said, "I can't afford it." ”
"I know, so I asked the liaison for a one-month deferred payment."
"That's useless, Lisa, I can't make 25 million a month."
"I understand, so I applied for installment again, repaying 2 million every month and paying it off in 20 months."
"Wait a minute, 200X20, that's 40 million, right?"
"The extra 15 million is interest."
I rely on it, the installment of 25 million has to pay 15 million interest, it's really dark.
However, 2 million per month does not seem to be an unattainable goal.
Juan, who thought so, finally returned to normal.
"Thanks, Lisa, you saved me."
"Yes, Mr. Juan, I'm one with you."
"Yes, we are one."
Juan grabbed Lisa, who had walked around the desk, and let her sit on his lap.
"I remember that there were some perks that VIPs could enjoy."
"Of course, Mr. Juan, I am always willing to provide you with excellent service."
……
After a flushed Lisa left, Juan perked up.
"Yaling!"
Looking at the blonde elf who came in, Juan commanded, "We need to make money, the more the better, tell all humanoids who can speak human language, do it for me!" ”
"Okay, boss!"
But a quarter of an hour later, Yaling came running with a panicked face.
"Boss, it's not good, Washington, saying that we are in breach of contract and want us to lose money!"
"! If you don't have money, you can only have one life, ask him if he wants it! ”
Juan's eyes were red with anxiety, but soon, he calmed down.
"What's going on?!"
"Washington said that we had not done a review for more than three months, and that we had seriously violated the agreement we had made with him.
"He protested to us several times and we didn't answer his communications.
"He's going to go to court with us now, and we're going to lose money!"
Juan understood, for more than three months, the beautiful planet was in another dimension, communication was completely interrupted, and of course it was impossible to work.
Therefore, Washington's demands there are completely reasonable, and Juan is expected to lose this lawsuit.
Hoping for the last shred of hope, Juan connected Yaling to communications in Washington.
A "rabbit" comes out of the video.
This is the most common practice of netizens who don't want to show their true faces, replacing themselves with some kind of animal image.
Juan earnestly asks the other party to give him face, but his request is rudely interrupted.
"Do you know what a serious consequence it has caused because of your no-show!
"You know how much negative news has appeared on the Internet in more than three months!
"The big guy behind me has already threatened to give me peanuts! Do you know how stressed I am!!
"So, lose money! Don't pay, see you in court!! ”
The video was cut off, and Juan was not given a chance to explain at all.
Juan, who was pale, knew that he was in big trouble now.
The biggest source of money is cut off, and he has to lose money, how can he repay the loan of the All-Union Rifle Association?
After letting Yaling leave, a frustrated Juan paced back and forth in his office.
In a lawsuit, I can't even afford a lawyer!
That's right, lawyer!
I know a lawyer.
Why don't you listen to a professional?
Glancing at the balance of less than 180,000 in his account, Juan gritted his teeth.
"It's not enough anyway, just spend it."
Juan connected to the Unconscionable Law Firm.
"Hello, this is a conscienceless law firm, we have the best lawyers, undertake all legal affairs, especially good at divorce proceedings."
The soft female voice soothed Juan's irritation.
"I went to Kafka's lawyer and wanted to consult on some business related to breach of contract lawsuits."
"Do you have an appointment?"
"No, isn't Kafka's lawyer available? Other lawyers can do the same. ”
The voice on the other side suddenly became softer, as if it had left the communicator.
"I don't have any other lawyers here, husband, stop playing games, I have a business!"
"Let him wait, I'm almost done with this game. , outflank! Stupid than will you fight!
"Damn, lost again. What, wife, what did you just say? ”
"Someone asked about the law, saying it was a breach of contract lawsuit."
"Okay, take it."
"Hello, I've kept you waiting."
The voice on the other side became clear again, and it seemed to be back in front of the communicator.
"I'll give you access to Kafka's lawyer right now, and I'll have to charge 100 Union Dollars per second from the moment I get there."
Without waiting for Juan to react, a male voice changed from the other side.
"Hello, I'm Kafka."
"Hello, I'm Juan."
"Juan? I remember the name, you consulted me before. ”
"Yes."
"Damn, there is really a big man who will jump into the pit for the second time. Ah no, I mean, it's nice to have a regular customer back, hehe, it's rare. ”
Juan was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say.
But the waiting time also counts as money, and Juan can't afford it.
He described the current situation as quickly as he could.
"Understood, Mr. Juan, if you trust me, you can entrust me to handle this lawsuit for you."
"This, how to calculate the commission fee?"
"I already know that you are in financial distress, so don't worry, when the lawsuit is won, I will ask the other party to pay."
"Alright then, please."
After the call, Juan received a bill and a lawyer's reminder letter, which was really not polite at all.
After paying the bill, Juan's account balance of less than 180,000 yuan is only in single digits, which is no different from clearing.
Juan, who knew that the lawsuit could not be fought in a day, was still anxious in his heart.
He logged on to the Internet and browsed aimlessly, trying to calm his irritability.
Later, Juan discovered that, as the Washington man had said, there was no longer a one-sided black-light praise of the president on the Internet, and that opposition was everywhere in clever ways.
"Kudos to President Black Light, he's the greatest idiot I've ever met!"
"May President Black Light live a long life, so that my descendants and I will have endless jokes."
"The gesture of the black-light president shaking hands with the air is so handsome, like the posture of him falling down the stairs."

The posts have flooded government websites, apparently pro-Conservative forums, and back-to-back business platforms.
These sites have been censored, and the "Clean Net Office" does not seem to have the ability to shut them down.
The big data automatic blocking function of these websites seems to be confused by the "praise words" in such posts, and cannot be effectively blocked.
It must be a tiring task to find and delete these posts that seem to be complimentary, but are actually sarcastic, from the mass of posts.
Juan could see that the editor in charge of moderation must be too busy, otherwise he would never have allowed such posts to appear in large numbers.
