What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Chapter 30: Chapter 28 Give some benefits to this kind of person and send them away! (Two in One)_3



"Let's have a chat with that guy named Tang Fangjing!"

When a problem can't be solved, the person raising the issue is taken care of, and naturally, there's no problem anymore.

Every time there's a fuss about the "Homeowners' Committee," there's always a ringleader. As long as that troublemaker is dealt with, the rest won't be able to cause any more waves.

As time goes by, everyone gets caught up with their own jobs and loses interest in the issue.

As for the street office and the housing construction department and so on, they all operate according to procedures. If it's not the right time, they absolutely won't get involved.

Just as long as the applicant withdraws their application, the street office will no longer take the initiative to intervene.

"That guy is just looking for more benefits. Haven't you already checked? He bought his place here with a housing loan, and now he's just an intern lawyer with no money. He's just trying to get some advantage."

"Go have a proper talk with him. If that doesn't work, give him some money to get rid of him!" President Hou said directly.

...

At Building No. 5 of Yuefu Residential Complex, Tang Fangjing walked out of the entrance, accompanied by Zhao Ruixia.

However, at the moment, the dissatisfaction was evident on the accountant Zhao's face: "Setting up the Homeowners' Committee is for their own good. What's this about us getting benefits for this? Who would give us benefits? Good intentions are not appreciated!"

The reality was far from what she had imagined. Zhao Ruixia had come to help due to conflicts with the property management, but sadly, as the days passed, work showed no signs of improvement, and she was starting to lose interest in participating.

Time is often the greatest enemy of those fighting for their rights. After all, we often say that time heals all wounds.

An unfinished building isn't much of an issue either. Life has to go on, and people always find ways to deceive themselves, like "just considering the lost money gone."

Exhaustion had already overtaken the anger in Zhao Ruixia's heart, compounded by strange talk popping up among the homeowners.

For instance, the woman from apartment 301 of the building they had just visited had asked if their keen involvement meant they were receiving benefits, infuriating Zhao Ruixia to the point that she argued with the woman.

Printing flyers costs money, and despite spending money and effort, they were still misunderstood...

Seeing that they were about to move to Building No. 6, Zhao Ruixia vented her frustration and then said, "Hey, Lawyer Tang, maybe you should go ahead on your own first. I need to go pick up my kid, okay?"

Tang Fangjing nodded upon hearing this: "Sure, no problem. Go take care of your matters, and I'll handle it here."

He had already expected it to turn out this way. Initially, there were many people promoting the cause together, but within a week, he was the only one left.

Regrettably, for the sake of survival, there was no choice.

Just as he was about to head to Building No. 6, his phone rang. He picked it up and saw it was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, is this Lawyer Tang Fangjing?" A male voice asked over the phone.

"Yes, it's me. May I ask who is calling?"

"Oh hello, Lawyer Tang. I am the manager of our property company. My surname is Bai, Bai Heshan. Do you have time now to stop by the property office, or should I come to you?"

The property management contacting him was expected – he could guess what they wanted to say, especially after they'd tried everything to stop his advocacy work over the past week.

After a moment's thought, he said, "I won't be in the complex for a while, so you can just tell me over the phone."

The good thing about phone calls is that it's assumed they can be recorded and used directly as evidence, unlike face-to-face conversations where personally recorded audio might be dismissed as unlawfully obtained...

That's why, despite advanced communication technology, salespeople in various industries still prefer to talk to you in person...

But the other guy was also savvy. A man got out of a car, smiling from ear to ear: "Lawyer Tang, I am that property manager. What a coincidence, just happened to be passing by."

Seeing this, Tang Fangjing hung up the call, looked at Manager Bai in front of him, then turned on the recording function on his phone and showed it to him: "Manager Bai, if you have something to say, say it. I'm recording the whole conversation."

Manager Bai looked dissatisfied: "Lawyer Tang, don't you think this is a bit inappropriate? I have an important matter that would benefit you to discuss..."

"I'm used to recording conversations. If you can't accept that, Manager Bai, then forget it. I'm not interested in any benefits."

If you could compensate for my life, I'm open to discussion, but unfortunately, you can't.

Manager Bai was in a difficult position, as if dealing with an irrepressible pea that just wouldn't yield!

But he had no choice and had to speak: "Lawyer Tang, you filed an application recently to prepare for a homeowner's assembly. I think you may not be fully aware of the situation in this residential complex..."

"You see, our property management has been running smoothly for over a decade, so is the Homeowners' Committee really..."

"Really what?" Tang Fangjing interrupted.

"Well, is it really necessary?"

Tang Fangjing shook his head in response: "I think it's very necessary. The general manager of your property said the other day that we could sue if we were dissatisfied, or that we could set up the Homeowners' Committee. That's what we're doing."

"And let's face it, it's difficult for you too, right? A lot of people aren't paying the property fees, causing you trouble because you have to sue them. It's a hassle, isn't it?"

Manager Bai's face changed: "Lawyer Tang, you're making it very difficult for us. We're sincere, you know. We also understand that you are carrying a loan and interning at a law firm..."

"But if you keep this attitude, it will be problematic for us as well..."

"Then don't do it, eh? Just like that. I have to go promote at Building No. 6, so I'm off."

Having said this, Tang Fangjing turned around and left without any hesitation, leaving Manager Bai standing there, dumbstruck.

He couldn't understand why someone who wasn't wealthy insisted on being this stubborn.

Or was it all an act?

Thinking this, Manager Bai pulled out his phone to make a call.

"Hello President Hou, yes, he recorded the conversation on the spot and didn't even want to hear about any benefits, alright, I understand."
