Jiang Li didn't act rashly. He knew that Zheng Wenbing, Yang Wu, and Zhang Yue's families had considerable influence. If he crippled them here, it would be troublesome to pursue the matter. After all, although Manager Lei had a favor, it wasn't as solid as metal.
They had already helped you enough.
"Zheng Wenbing, just you wait to go to jail."
After saying that, Jiang Li turned around to leave.
"Wait!" Zheng Wenbing calmed down.
"What? Are you going to make me stay? "Jiang Li turned around. His calm expression sent a chill down the trio's spine.
"Jiang Li, there isn't any deep hatred between us. Why must we fight to the death?" Zheng Wenbing's tone softened. "It's impossible for you to use any means to capture me. My family has some influence. However, there's no need to fight to the death. We are all third-year high school students with bright futures. It wouldn't be good for both sides to get into trouble. How about this? I apologize for this matter and compensate you with a sum of money. Let's forget about this matter. How about it? "
"Forget about this matter!"
Of course, Jiang Li wouldn't forget about this matter. However, after listening to what the other party had to say, his original intention was to ask for a huge sum of money.
"How about this? I'll give you 10,000 star dollars as compensation, and we'll call it even." Zheng Wenbing directly offered the money. He believed that this amount of money was enough to tempt Jiang Li.
"10,000 star dollars …" Jiang Li looked at him with disdain. "Zheng Wenbing, do you really think I've never seen money before? Are you trying to get rid of a beggar? "
"Then how much do you want?" Zhang Yue shouted. "I wonder if your family has 10,000 in total! How can you be so greedy? "
"Is that so?" Jiang Li pressed on his chip, and a voice came from it. "Your account balance is 19000 star dollars. This month's expenditure is 114000 star dollars …"
"What?"
Zhang Yue, Zheng Wenbing, and Yang Wu nearly jumped when they heard this electronic bill. This month's expenditure was 120,000. They couldn't imagine spending so much money in a month.
"Do you think I care about your 10,000 star dollars?" Jiang Li waved his hand. "Zheng Wenbing, you're underestimating me. You think you can get rid of me with just a little bit of money? It doesn't matter, it's a life-and-death struggle. Even if the three young masters can't go to jail because of their connections, but there's a stain in their files. I think you can't apply to Starry Sky University. I'll just destroy your future. "
"You … …" This was what Zheng Wenbing was afraid of. It was not worth it to fight to the death with Jiang Li. He was afraid of trouble. It was the last year of Starry Sky University's exams. Even if there were no problems, it was not worth getting into trouble.
"Then how much do you want? Give me a number!" Zhang Yue took a step forward. "I know you want money."
"Humph! Just you wait. I'll call my brother, Manager Lei Dong, to see if they'll let you go. " Jiang Li walked out of the room, leaving Zhang Yue, Zheng Wenbing, and the rest to stare at each other with gloomy expressions.
It was better to seek Lei Dong's opinion on this matter. After all, the other party was very experienced.
"What? Brother Jiang Li? "Lei Dong asked when he heard the phone call.
"Brother Lei, it's like this … …" Jiang Li explained everything in detail. "I want to send them to jail, but they've asked for a private settlement. Brother Lei, please give me an idea."
"Is that so … …" Lei Dong thought for a moment. "Brother Jiang, I know you want to send them to jail, right?"
"Yes." Jiang Li nodded. "I even want to kill them. They've crossed my bottom line."
"Don't be impulsive." Lei Dong hurriedly said, "Actually, you can sue them according to the standard procedure, but I don't support you doing so. Firstly, the procedure is very complicated and will cause you a lot of trouble. You're at the stage where you can focus on your studies. Secondly, once the lawsuit starts, Zheng Wenbing, Yang Wu, and Zhang Yue's families will be driven to desperate measures. It's not worth it if they do something to the death. Thirdly, we've arrested the subsidiary company's executives, but there's no direct evidence to prove that Zheng Wenbing did this. Even if he did, he'll be an accomplice. At most, he'll be detained for a few days for framing your parents, leaving a stain on his record. Furthermore, your parents weren't harmed. According to the rules, it's just a formal interrogation by the police station. Therefore, the court will only support you a little if you ask for compensation for emotional distress. I don't mind if you settle it privately and ask for a huge compensation. I think they'll agree to it. You have a bright future ahead of you. Don't waste your time with these scumbags. "
"Thank you, Brother Lei. How much should I ask for?"
Jiang Li nodded. Lei Dong was a big manager after all. He could see far ahead and speak the truth. His parents weren't harmed. If they pursued him, the police would just summon them for questioning. There were no loopholes in the procedure.
"Three hundred thousand. Each of their families will pay one hundred thousand star dollars as compensation. But you have to be careful with what you say. You must let them mention it. Otherwise, they'll bite back and say you're extorting and blackmailing them. "Lei Dong warned again." How about this. I'll send a lawyer to negotiate with them. "
"They're suing me for extortion and blackmail?" Jiang Li was reminded. He felt that there was such a possibility. "I've recorded a video just now. It can be used as evidence."
"En. Remember to keep it well. I'll get the lawyer to negotiate with them. Everything will be fine. You just have to wait from now on. Don't mention anything about compensation to them. "Lei Dong was indeed a big manager. These conspiracies were child's play to him.
"Thank you. Brother Lei. "
"Don't worry. Your hypnosis is so powerful. You have to help my son with hypnosis in the future. My son is in primary school now. The competition is fierce." Lei Dong knew that he wouldn't lose out if he befriended a hypnosis expert.
Bang!
After Jiang Li finished his call, he pushed open the door. Zheng Wenbing stood up. "Jiang Li, what do you want?"
"Nothing much. Brother Lei said that you guys actually implicated the Xue Group's reputation and almost caused a scandal. They want to sue you. But they're all students. Why ruin their futures? Brother Lei's lawyer is on the way now. He'll be here in about half an hour. You guys can negotiate with him. " Jiang Li didn't mention anything about compensation. He didn't want to be falsely accused of extortion and blackmail. "I suggest that you guys inform your family about this. We can discuss it together."
Zheng Wenbing's expression changed. "Jiang Li, you're really ruthless."
"Fighting and killing are things that boorish men do. We're in a lawful society now. Let's follow the proper procedures and do what needs to be done." Jiang Li sat down leisurely.
Yang Wu and Zhang Yue didn't call their families. They knew that this matter couldn't be seen in public. If they called their families, they would be scolded. It would be even more embarrassing.
Half an hour later, the lawyer arrived.
He was a middle-aged man with glasses. He shook hands with Jiang Li the moment he entered. "Student Jiang Li, nice to meet you. I'm the lawyer of the Xue Group."
"Nice to meet you. I'll leave this dispute to you. I don't know the law, so I'll let you negotiate with them," Jiang Li said.
"Alright." The lawyer turned around. "You're Zheng Wenbing, Yang Wu, and Zhang Yue, right?"
"What do you want?" Zheng Wenbing stood up. Her eyes were filled with nervousness.
"We, the Xue Group, have obtained evidence. You colluded with the manager of the subsidiary company to embezzle the company's assets. You framed someone's parents. You also colluded with the boss of the black market boxing club and attempted to sell someone. This is a serious crime. We can sue you anytime with the evidence we have. " The lawyer spoke with conviction. "According to Article 3751 of the Citizenship Law, if you can get the victim's forgiveness, the victim can choose not to appeal. Because this is not a public case, you can settle it privately. "
"After saying so much, you want compensation. How much do you want?" Zheng Wenbing already knew what the lawyer was getting at. "I admit defeat this time. Is 10,000 Star Dollars enough?"
"This time, the manager caused a serious loss to our company. We suffered a financial loss of at least 300,000 Star Dollars. Our company must recover this debt. "
The lawyer said.
Jiang Li listened at the side. He felt that the lawyer was indeed a lawyer. He didn't mention how much money he wanted, but how much his company had lost.
This was something that no one could use against him.
Amazing.
If he negotiated it himself, it would definitely be 300,000 Star Dollars. This would be considered extortion.
"300,000 Star Dollars!" Zheng Wenbing, Yang Wu, and Zhang Yue almost jumped up. "You might as well rob someone."
"I'm saying that our company lost 300,000 Star Dollars. This debt must be recovered." The lawyer's tone was cold. "Could it be that you colluded with the manager of the subsidiary company? You also obtained our company's assets? If you did, I advise you to compensate us, and we won't appeal. Otherwise, the company's losses can only be recovered through legal means. "
"You …" When Zheng Wenbing heard this, he couldn't find any flaws in it.
Yang Wu and Zhang Yue stared at Jiang Li and the lawyer. They also couldn't do anything.
"300,000 Star Dollars it is!" After a long time, Zheng Wenbing suddenly made up his mind. "I will compensate. I hope we can reach an agreement this time and write it off."
"We will naturally not appeal for the company's losses." The lawyer took out a document. "Sign it and transfer the money."
"Zhang Yue, Yang Wu, each of us will contribute 100,000 Star Dollars." Zheng Wenbing looked at the agreement and discussed first.
"Brother Bing, all my savings …" Zhang Yue's heart ached. 100,000 Star Dollars was not a small amount to him. It was all the living expenses his family gave him and the savings he had accumulated since he was young. Although they were a family with a million Star Dollars, it was impossible for them to accumulate all the family's resources on them.
It was already good enough for each of them to contribute 100,000 Star Dollars.
"Cut the crap. Let's get through this first," Zheng Wenbing said.
"I have to borrow 50,000 Star Dollars from my brother." Yang Wu quickly made a call.
Jiang Li looked coldly at the three of them. He didn't say a word. 300,000 Star Dollars was not enough to quench the hatred in his heart. If he had the chance, he would make them unable to make a comeback.
Soon, Ding dong! The three of them successfully transferred the money. The lawyer asked them to sign the agreement. After the three of them left in a hurry, the lawyer transferred the money to Jiang Li. Jiang Li's account had an additional 300,000 Star Dollars.
Jiang Li wanted to pay the lawyer, but the lawyer waved his hand. "You are Brother Lei's brother. How can I do such a thing? I will do my best to complete Brother Lei's orders. These three are just students. They don't have enough experience in society. It will be easy to deal with them. "
"Thank you, thank you." Jiang Li expressed his gratitude again.
"Damn it! Damn it! This time, the three of us have become paupers! "
On the road, Zheng Wenbing, Yang Wu, and Zhang Yue were all furious.
"Brother Bing, we are being extorted like this. Can't we resist at all?" Zhang Yue was unwilling.
"What can we do? I originally wanted to talk to Jiang Li and get him to name a price! Then, I would lure him to say something he shouldn't say. That way, I can sue him for extortion. But who knew that a lawyer like this would come. I can't find any loopholes! "Zheng Wenbing felt that all the conspiracies were useless.
"What company's losses! I think they are just extorting us. "Zhang Yue punched the wall.
"They can make a flawless accounting of the company's losses. We know that we are being extorted, but we can't do anything about it." Yang Wu was still a little dizzy. Being slapped by Jiang Li was a great humiliation, but he didn't dare to go up and settle the score.
"Just you wait! The two brothers, Jiang Li and Jiang Tao, are absolutely irreconcilable! "Zheng Wenbing clenched his teeth.
