In front of the Countess and Audrey, Lady Lisa began to talk about Hobert's excellent mobility today, and the miraculous potion.

When Audrey heard about the miraculous doctor, she suspected that it was an extraordinary being.

If Hobert knew such an extraordinary doctor, could he also be an extraordinary person?

It's a pity that she has too little extraordinary knowledge to make a correct judgment, but there are still three days left before the tarot meeting, and she can wait until the tarot meeting to ask Mr. "Emperor".

This gentleman knows a lot, and the key is to get along well.

After listening to Lisa's story, Earl Hall smiled and said, "This is a reliable young gentleman who knows how to seize opportunities. ”

He said to Audrey: "My dear, if you have any legal problems in the future, you can listen to him. ”

"Father, that's exactly what I thought." Audrey smiled, "But until then, I'm going to pay Aslan Barton a satisfactory payment."

"Father, is there any way I can tip Mr. Hobart more? I think he deserves it. ”

Earl Hall smiled, "In addition to the remuneration paid to the firm, you can specify that a sum of money is used to pay for the expenses of the firm in this case."

"The general office will give the rest of the money to the lawyer in charge of the case after deducting the expenses."

Normally, these things are done by the butler, and the most Earl Hall can do is to give a tip to a lawyer.

Today, in order to make his daughter understand the underlying rules of Beckland's society, the Earl of Hall would only ask about such a meager expenditure of a few hundred pounds.

……

On Saturday morning, Hobert accompanied Lisa to get Miss Hugh out of prison.

Hugh was still a little incredulous when he walked out of prison: "Mr. Hobert, it's really hard to imagine that it only took one day for you to settle the matter. ”

Hobert smiled: "It's just that I'm lucky, I happen to know a famous doctor who cured Will's paralysis." ”

He looked around the prison gates: "Don't you have any friends to pick you up?" ”

Hugh smiled helplessly: "She may not have gotten the news yet." ”

Hobert said, "Then allow me to send you back to your lodgings." ”

Hugh immediately refused, "Thank you for your kindness, but I would like to take a walk in the sun." ”

Her face looked childish, and it was easy to ignore that she had been in the Beckerland for many years, and that she didn't trust Hobart enough to let him know where she lived.

"Okay then." Hobert said in his heart: It seems that I will not see Miss "Magician" today.

Hugh asked for Hobert's correspondence: "If I encounter any legal difficulties in the future, I hope I can still get your help." ”

Hobert nodded: "Looking forward to your patronage." ”

Watching Miss Hugh leave on her two short legs, Hobert and Lisa rode back to the law office in a carriage.

Lisa goes straight to Barton's office, and Hobert guesses that it's the payment for settling the case.

It was almost noon when Lisa left, and Barton called Hobart to his office: "Miss Audrey is a generous young lady, and she paid the firm £200. ”

Hobert immediately mentally calculated, he was a paralegal, and now he could only get 10% of his pay, which was 20 pounds.

This is a lot of income, like the case of Mr. Henry and Mr. Robin, who had been dealt with in the magistrates' court, he was only paid 3 pounds, and after paying the tax, he was only left with 2 pounds 12 soles.

The average paralegal is paid between £6 and £9 a week, but when Hobart came to work at the law firm, Barton advised him not to take a weekly wage, but to take a commission, and Hobart heeded the barrister's advice.

A paralegal can get 10% of the total remuneration, and if you become a senior assistant or lawyer, you can get 20% of the total remuneration.

If you become a barrister, you either become a new partner in the firm or you can go out and start a new law firm on your own.

When I first became a paralegal, it was not cost-effective to choose a commission salary, because it was impossible to solve a good case every time, and sometimes it took two weeks to get 3 or 4 pounds.

However, with Barton's support, the problem of income was not a problem at all, and one of his recommendations allowed Hobart to earn 20 pounds.

Barton saw Hobert's face with joy, and smiled with the mentality of watching the play: "The generous Miss Audrey also paid the firm 80 pounds to cover all the expenses in this case.

"As is customary, after deducting the 34 pounds 6 soles and 3 pence you use, the remaining 45 pounds, 13 soles and 9 pence will be your tip."

Hobert opened his mouth in surprise: "This, this is a big income!" ”

Hobert's reaction caused Barton to laugh "haha": "This is Beckland, there is an ugly side, but there is also a good side." ”

He said: "Congratulations to you young man, because of your outstanding performance, you have earned more than 60 pounds. You know, a lot of the middle class isn't as rich as you are now. ”

After Hobert left Barton's office, he was still a little excited: Is this Beckland? It can make people destitute overnight, and it can also make an ordinary person rich in the same amount of time.

Thinking about it, Hobert gradually calmed down, and he suddenly realized that such a society is actually very scary, and after there are many examples of getting rich overnight, it is bound to make people always want to take shortcuts, always think about gambling, and put all their net worth on a certain investment.

He remembered the Mr. Robin he had seen in court before, and Mr. Robin's family had a good life, but he had to go into debt to invest, and eventually bankrupted a happy family.

The excitement of getting a large sum of money for the first time fades away, and Hobart's mind gradually clears up, although money is useful, but it cannot be lost in the world of money.

He still has a lot to do, to summarize the "lawyer's code", and to further explore the "country of disorder", find a way to completely lift the curse of the family, find out why he crossed over, and why he has such a close connection with the "country of disorder".

In this extraordinary world, strength is the last word!

Hobert lamented that he was almost blinded by money, and began to summarize the gains of this period in his mind.

There is still no shadow of the "lawyer's code", but he has a further understanding of the ability of "lawyers".

In Hobert's view, the ability of a "lawyer" is mainly composed of two parts: looking for weaknesses and distorting ideas.

Finding weaknesses is a very useful extraordinary ability, and it is easy to find the weaknesses of the opponent in the general sequence of 9 and below.

Distorting ideas is not as easy to use as expected, and according to Hobert's attempts in the past few days, the main way to distort the other person's thoughts is by eloquence, and there is no way to obviously go against the other person's ideas.
