(One more update) 317: Chapter 318: Private Lawyer!

(One more update) Seeing President Liang arrive with three or four lawyers, the people of Shallow Bay community all felt a chill in their hearts.

Last night, they had thought of countless methods these people might use, but they hadn’t expected them to actually bring lawyers.

Thinking about the contract they had signed made them feel utterly ridiculous.

“What do we do?”

“Exactly, I knew these lawyers might have said something.

If he targets us, we’re done for!”

Tang Zhong didn’t speak, but stood slowly among the crowd, looking at President Liang and his lawyers ahead, with a smile appearing on his face.

When President Liang saw Tang Zhong, his face turned sour, remembering the beating from yesterday, but today he was not frightened at all because he was not here to cause trouble.

He then turned to the three men in suits behind him and said, “Lawyer Zhang, this time it all depends on you, here’s the contract!”

“You can count on me, sir.

I studied law at Columbia University.

A thing like this won’t trouble me at all!” said Lawyer Zhang.

Lawyer Zhang, named Zhang Xing, might not be terribly famous in the legal circles of Xuanjing City, but he did have a certain reputation.

This time, he had been invited by President Liang to fight this particular lawsuit and was known to be quite scheming.

This meant that whoever stood against him in court was bound to suffer.

It was because of Zhang Xing’s reputation that President Liang had invited him.

“That’s good to hear, Lawyer Zhang, here’s the contract!” President Liang pulled out a contract.

The signed contract was one of many; the one Tang Zhong had torn up previously was just one among them.

Zhang Xing took it, read it carefully, and then burst out laughing, “President Liang, rest assured, this contract is totally in our favor.

Those country bumpkins are waiting to lose both their land and their wealth this time!”

“Lawyer Zhang, I have another task for you.

See that person over there!” President Liang pointed towards Tang Zhong in the crowd and spoke to Zhang Xing.

Zhang Xing then saw Tang Zhong and asked, “What about him, President Liang?”

“That man hit me yesterday.

Is there a way to get him imprisoned?” President Liang said viciously.

Now that he knew Tang Zhong was a formidable foe, and physical confrontation was not an option, his only recourse was to use the law to force Tang Zhong into submission.

A mere country bumpkin wanted to fight him?

He was still too green.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xing understood and smiled, “You can rest easy, sir.

I have some connections in Xuanjing City.

Just a little manipulation and he will be behind bars!”

“That’s good to hear.

Oh, and I found out yesterday, this man has a bit of a reputation in Jianghai!” President Liang said, knowing about Tang Zhong’s exploits.

“So what?

Jianghai is a small place.

What does a reputation there matter?

In the eyes of people from Xuanjing City, he’s still a minor character!” said Zhang Xing.

“Great!” President Liang was becoming increasingly pleased and then, looking at Tang Zhong, his eyes flashed menacingly, “Boy, just you wait, I will make you beg for life and beg for death!”

Then, Zhang Xing took out the contract, walked forward slowly with an air of arrogance and declared, “I am a lawyer from Xuanjing City.

This contract was signed between Shallow Bay community and Pingan Company.

According to what’s written here, Shallow Bay community is to be demolished.

Therefore, I am giving you one day to move out.

If not, don’t blame us for not being nice!”

At that moment, the crowd in Shallow Bay community panicked.

Few were literate, and hearing about the contract made them grit their teeth in anger, blaming their ignorance for signing those contracts.

Seeing the lawyer, they didn’t know what to do?

And then they all looked towards Tang Zhong, who was now their final hope.

Tang Zhong looked at Zhang Xing and started laughing, “The contents of this contract don’t have a nutritious ingredient in them.

I was even thinking of suing you for maliciously deceiving the people!”

Zhang Xing was stunned, not expecting someone to recognize the sloppiness of the contract.

Although it might deceive these people, it wouldn’t work on others.

Today, he had already committed to President Liang, so there was no way they could lose this lawsuit.

“But this contract, indeed, was signed by them.

From the moment it was signed, it had legal effect, and renouncing it might not be feasible!” Zhang Xing said.

“Useless things, why would we renounce them?

I ask you, when this contract was signed, was there a lawyer to discern its legitimacy?

The law stipulates that anyone with a private lawyer who signs any contract must have the supervision of that lawyer.

If not, all contracts must be nullified!” said Tang Zhong.

Tang Zhong felt that Jianghai knew a thing or two, however, this was precisely the funny part, the people of Shallow Bay were all from the suburbs, to put it plainly, they were farmers, only having become urban residents following Jianghai’s recent development.

Could these people be cultured?

And to have lawyers?

“Right, so what about their lawyers?”

It was utterly ridiculous to say that these farmers had personal lawyers.

“Right here!” Tang Zhong said with a laugh.

“You?” Zhang Hang was taken aback, before bursting into laughter.

Even the people of Shallow Bay were startled at this moment; little Tang actually knew about lawyers.

Xin Xiaotong and Wu Xiaoyu hadn’t left because of the demolition issues today and were standing among the crowd.

Hearing Tang Zhong’s words, they were stunned.

“Yes, exactly me, I am their personal lawyer!” Tang Zhong declared.

“Just you?” Zhang Hang laughed loudly.

But since he was a fellow lawyer, that would make things easier.

In the legal profession, Zhang Hang had never been afraid of anyone.

“If you are a lawyer, then you must have heard of Zhang Hang from Xuanjing City, that’s me, graduated from the law faculty of Columbia University, never lost a case under my belt, but these are trivial matters.

Most importantly, I am Master Chang Linjiang’s disciple, so, you figure it out!” Zhang Hang said smilingly.

He believed, the man before him was definitely scared now.

A graduate from the law faculty of Columbia, Zhang Hang from Xuanjing City made a notable name for himself within just a few years in the legal circles of Xuanjing City.

Moreover, if one didn’t know about Master Chang Linjiang, there was no use in mixing in the legal field.

He was absolutely the number one in the legal circle of Xuanjing City, someone any lawyer would show respect to.

With this, Zhang Hang was hinting to Tang Zhong to stop struggling, who would help these bumpkins defend, everyone would lose.

When Tang Zhong heard the name Chang Linjiang, he suddenly recalled past events and smiled indifferently, saying, “So what?”

Zhang Hang was startled; he had thought the guy before him would be afraid, but unexpectedly, he was so calm, immediately his brow furrowed, “So what, if that’s the case, there’s nothing more to say!”

In his view, Tang Zhong was just some unknown small-time lawyer, who had just graduated from university and thought about standing up for the people, without any connections, daring to challenge him, very well, Zhang Hang swore, he would make this person regret becoming a lawyer.

“Since this contract is useless, let’s not mention it anymore.

I heard from President Liang that you hit them yesterday, and now, President Liang and his group want to sue you for your actions, I’m going to call the police right now!” Zhang Hang declared with a chilly gaze.

He had originally thought that with just the contract, he could forcefully make these villagers relent; sorely he had never expected a Cheng Yaojin to come out halfway through.

How could he not be angry, most importantly, it was some insignificant fellow popping up from somewhere, who even after knowing his name still dared to challenge him.

Usually, countless law graduates groveled before him, which made Zhang Hang very angry, thinking he would definitely blacklist this guy in the legal circle.

Then he took out his smartphone and logged onto a forum.

It was a famous lawyers forum, where members were lawyers from all over the country, and Zhang Hang was relatively well-known and influential on it.

He discreetly took a photo of Tang Zhong and began to post.

He now wanted to announce to all his intention to blacklist this person.

On the forum, soon Tang Zhong’s photo and a post appeared.

“Today, I, Zhang Hang, declare here that I want to blacklist someone.

This person is arrogant.

I hope my fellow lawyers take note, never to employ this man!”

After posting, Zhang Hang finally felt satisfied.

Then, looking at Tang Zhong, his gaze was venomous.

He thought to himself, “Kid, if you had just moved aside obediently, I definitely wouldn’t have bullied you, but today you’ve provoked me, I’ll make it very difficult for you!”

“You will regret this!” Zhang Hang warned slowly.

“Will I?” Tang Zhong laughed.

At this moment, unknown to Zhang Hang, the post he made on the lawyer’s forum had quickly become a hot topic, with the number of responses still rapidly increasing.
