Chapter 526: Dispute (2-in-1)

Inazuma Castle, the Arataki faction.

The inside of the house is also simple, but it is quite tidy, and the location of the window is very good, and the sunlight shines in to make the whole room look brighter.

Thinking about it, this should be the credit of Kuki Shinobu, like Ichito and his younger brothers, probably wouldn't have thought about it so thoughtfully.

"Senior sister, there are two more of you, sit first, and I'll make a pot of tea first."

Kuki Shinobu took Li Qiuzhi and a few people to the reception area to sit down, she didn't expect Yanfei to arrive in Inazuma so quickly, thinking that it would take more than a week to arrive at the earliest.

So the things for the reception have not been prepared yet, alas, it is a bit of a faux pas.

"Ah Ren doesn't have to be so polite." Yanfei smiled and took the lead in sitting down on the sofa, and Li Qiuzhi and Yoimiya also sat next to him.

The seating arrangement and sofa material here seem to be very good, and it should have taken some thought to make the guests who come here to talk about business get a more comfortable experience.

"Speaking of which, why did Senior Sister come so quickly?"

Kuki Shinobu asked curiously as he prepared the tea.

"Well, something happened."

Yanfei delayed the ship due to wind and waves, and there was no way to ask Li Qiuzhi to bring it over, but he briefly said a lot of things in advance.

"Huh, that's okay, if Senior Sister can't come, then I can't deal with this trouble."

Hearing that there was an accident in the process of delivering the letter, Jiuqi Shinobu was a little surprised, but fortunately, there was no accident in the final result, and Senior Sister Yanfei finally arrived.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little good about Li Qiuzhi, who helped a lot:

[Kuki Shinobu has a good impression of you, gain 330 opinion points, and the current opinion level is 3 (30/300)]

Then she made tea for a few people, took out the information from the space of the Vision of God, and sat down in the same place and slowly began to tell Li Qiuzhi what was going on:

"This is a labor dispute case involving a large amount of money, and the situation is a little more complicated."

Kuki Shinobu and Yanfei carefully talked about the details of the case, and Li Qiuzhi and Yoimiya's understanding of the law is the level of ordinary ordinary people.

However, I don't know why listening to them talk about this kind of professional knowledge that requires in-depth understanding, although it is very ignorant, but it is interesting.

Maybe it's because of the lively nature that comes into play.

After ten minutes, Kuki Shinobu finally explained the details of the case clearly, because her words were concise and easy to understand, even the two non-professionals, Li Qiuzhi and Yoimiya, understood what was going on.

To sum up, a businessman wants to build a large shopping mall, and then a good friend who does civil engineering work comes to the door and says that he can do it.

The merchant knew his good friend well and had a relationship with him for many years, so he paid him part of the money with more trust and asked him to recruit people to start the work.

After all, Mora earns for others, it is better to earn it for his own friends, and there are many discounts, so the follow-up is basically related to the construction, and that friend is responsible.

The merchant's friend was also quick to move and quickly found enough manpower to start the construction.

And gave more Mora and asked friends to contact building material dealers to buy materials needed for construction.

The friend lived up to the businessman's expectations, and with the recruited workers, everything was quickly completed, and the official construction soon began.

Everything went very smoothly for the first three months, but one morning after three months, the workers came to work as usual, but they were surprised to find that the contractor did not come!

The unexpected workers first went to the contractor's house to look for it, but found no one, and then naturally searched everywhere, and finally found that the guy had run out of the country with a huge amount of money!

Because it was agreed that the salary of the previous month would be paid in the middle of the second month, it is also easy to understand that the wages of the previous month should be counted on the days at the beginning of the month.

Although it's not a day-end event, everyone has no opinion on this.

And the businessman's friend and the businessman said that recruiting more people can be completed at a relatively fast speed, and the businessman also trusts his friend very much, so he arranged it with his friend.

The follow-up was that a businessman's friend recruited forty or fifty workers to help with the construction, and the average daily wage per person was 30,000 to 40,000 mora, which was relatively high.

The daily wage of a worker who moves goods at the Liyue Pier is around 20,000 Mora, so a daily wage of 30,000 to 40,000 Mora is very attractive.

It's easy to recruit dozens of workers.

Even if we calculate 30,000 moras a day, and a minimum of 40 people, the minimum wage for the workers is 1,200,000 a day, or 36,000,000 a month.

After three months of construction, the first month's mora was given to the workers.

In the third month, when the second month's mora was paid, the payment of wages was deferred on the grounds that the statistics were wrong and the salary was recalculated, but it was said that an additional 5% would be paid as compensation.

The workers were very happy with this.

Not surprisingly, in the middle of the fourth month, the foreman had to pay the workers for the second and third months, a total of two months' wages, at least 72 million molas.

In other words, the contractor had at least swept away so many Mora and ran abroad, and when the workers found out about this fact, they were naturally extremely angry!

It was impossible not to get back two months' wages, so they couldn't find a contractor, so they had to go to the merchant to ask for it.

The businessman was also stunned when he heard the news, his good friend actually ran away with the money?

Although he sympathized with the plight of the workers when they came to him to ask for money, he was also a victim, and he had already paid the wages he needed to pay every month.

There is no reason to give it again, and what I learned afterwards is that his friend only gave a deposit to buy the materials from those material dealers, saying that he would pay the balance after the completion of the project.

However, because the businessman has a very trusting relationship with his friend, after confirming that there is no problem with the bill before construction, he has already given enough money for his friend to buy materials.

That is to say, in addition to the wages of the workers, the contractor also took away the balance of various building materials, with a total amount of more than 100 million Mora!

With such a huge amount, it is impossible for a businessman to pay it again.

Naturally, the workers and material dealers were reluctant to solve the problem by using the law, but they could not afford to pay much for the consultation.

Considering the ability and cost performance, I invited the deputy of the Arataki faction, who has recently become famous in Inazuma Castle, that is, Kuki Shinobu.

At this time, Kuki Shinobu had helped many ordinary people and solved many cases involving the law, and his reputation was very good, and he never overbargained.

Therefore, nature is the first choice of the workers.

The merchant also expected this, and he spent a lot of money to hire a team of legal counselors who were also very famous in Inazuma, thinking that even if he couldn't win the lawsuit, it should not be a problem for him to lose less.

Kuki Shinobu, who learned of this, also felt the pressure, after all, he was against a whole team of veteran law consultants.

Although she believed in her own ability, she was not conceited, and the huge wages involved in the workers had to ask for foreign help in order to be safe.

That is, her senior sister Yanfei.

Of course, the best way is to catch the contractor who ran away with the money, so that both sides can recover their profits and losses.

But the man had premeditated and ran silently to find the other man, and he didn't know when.

The workers knew this, and there was no other way for them to go to the merchant, so they said that this matter was more complicated.

With Li Qiuzhi's shallow knowledge of the law, he also knew that such a case would definitely have to be broken for a long time.

However, he can help a little, he can ask the head of the Qin, Ningguang, and Nahida, and let them join forces with Inazuma to arrest this person who ran away with the money.

Of course, it doesn't matter if that person goes to Fontaine, Nata, or Solstice, just let the Heavenly Leader come forward to contact the law enforcement agencies of those three countries, and they will also be jointly wanted.

Thinking about such a trivial matter, the other party should not refuse.

Maybe we can also take this opportunity to make an agreement on an international joint wanted document or something.

That is, the information of wanted criminals is shared with each other, and whichever country catches a foreign wanted criminal, it will notify the corresponding country to claim it and escort it back.

I feel that it is a good idea, and it is positive and beneficial to every country, let the head of the qin team promote it, maybe it can really be done!

Li Qiuzhi waited for the gap between Kuki Shinobu and Yanfei to stop for a while, and mentioned in passing that he could help contact Mondstadt, Liyue, and Sumeru to help get the money out of the runaway.

As for the international joint arrest of fugitives, I have not told them for the time being.

Because he didn't say this, he had to let Captain Qin, Ningguang, Nahida and the general discuss whether there was a problem, so they could contact other countries to discuss.

In the end, there were no problems in all seven countries to be able to implement them.

No matter how good a proposal is, it must be considered whether it is suitable or not based on the national conditions of each country.

Li Qiuzhi can please find someone, but when it comes to legal matters, he is not a professional, so he naturally does not dare to use his influence indiscriminately, he must do it according to this, this will only do bad things with good intentions.

"Hey, yes, you've done a lot of work in Mondstadt, Liyue, and other countries, so it's easy to do such a small favor."

Yanfei took a sip of tea and said thoughtfully.

"If you can really catch the person who ran away, it would be the best, but no one knows which country he went to, and even if he is caught, he may not be able to recover those Mora."

Kuki Shinobu was not so optimistic.

"But you can't just let him get away with it, right?" Li Qiuzhi leaned on the sofa and said with a smile.

"Well, that's true." Kuki Shinobu and Yanfei nodded in agreement.

[Yanfei has a favorable impression of Ling, gaining 300 opinion points, and the current friendship level is Lv.5 (200/500)]

[Kuki Shinobu has a good impression of you, gain 380 opinion points, and the current opinion level is Lv.4 (110/400)]

Li Qiuzhi looked at the favorability prompts that popped up on the character panel, and knew that they had a good impression of their positive helping behavior.

The exclusive specialty "Girl's Lover" is as powerful as ever, making it much easier for him to gain favor, maybe this is his personal charm, the young adventurer thought happily.

"However, the arrest of the prisoner is not within the scope of this commission, and we still have to focus on the labor dispute between the workers and the rich businessman."

Kuki Shinobu thought for a while and said.

"That's right, the interests of the workers have to be given priority."

Li Qiuzhi nodded in agreement, after all, Kuki Shinobu took over the commission of the workers, and even if he caught the people, there was a risk that he would not be able to recover Mora.

Naturally, these risks cannot be borne by the workers.

After a short break, Kuki Shinobu and Yanfei then continued to discuss the relevant details of the case with Yanfei.

It stopped after about half an hour, and according to Kuki Shinobu, there were still about 10 days before the trial of this labor dispute case.

Now just understand the matter first, there is no need to be in such a hurry about other things, she originally expected that Senior Sister Yanfei would be able to come to Inazuma City three days before the trial.

In other words, she thought that three days was enough time for them to prepare, and now that it was so many days earlier at once, it was okay to slow down the pace.

"By the way, Senior Sister only cares about telling you about the case, and forgets that you just arrived in Inazuma, so I should take you to arrange the hotel first!"

Kuki Shinobu talked for a long time, and his throat was a little dry, and when he just picked up the cup and was about to take a sip, he suddenly remembered something and said.

"Hehe, where are you worried about not being able to find a hotel in such a big place as Inazuma City, don't be in such a hurry." Yanfei waved her hand to show that she didn't care.

Hearing the two of them talk, Li Qiuzhi felt that he had found another opportunity to brush up his favorability, he thought for a while and said to Yanfei:

"Actually, if you don't want to bother, I can send you back to Liyue Harbor when you're done, after all, there is no place to sleep comfortably in a hotel."

"Hey, I think so, but wouldn't that be too much of a hassle for you?" Yan Scarlet looked moved, and then said with a little hesitation.

"It's okay, it's just a matter of a moment anyway, it's not a trouble."

Li Qiuzhi shook his head and said.

"Well, it's really good to go home, or I'll pay you the cost of staying in the hotel as payment!" Yanfei said happily.

[Yanfei has a good impression of you, gain 320 opinion points, and the current friendship level is 6 (20/600)]

"Well, don't be so polite, if you don't want me to help in vain, then give me a rough stone, I'm quite interested in the rough stone."

The market price of a rough stone is 100,000 mora, and staying in a hotel for ten days is about the same price, and Li Qiuzhi didn't open his mouth.

He said that this is mainly to see if Yanfei and Kuki Shinobu have any original stones left, and if they have, they can express their willingness to buy them.

Previously, he had taken the time to absorb more than 300 rough stones that he had acquired from the Mondstadt Adventurers' Guild on commission, as well as the rough stones that the head of the Koto had given him as a reward.

Now the experience points on the panel have exceeded 2 million:

【Experience Point:2216889】

Later, I will go to the Adventurers' Guild in Inazuma City to see how many rough stones have been acquired there, and when I return to Liyue, I will stop by the Adventurers' Guild in Liyue Harbor.

If only there were as many as Mondstadt!
