Village chief, your township enterprise sells laser cannons?

Chapter 121 Wang Ju: May the Village Be Peaceful! (First Update!)

After yelling into the phone, Wu Jingzhong hung up immediately. His wife, Li Lan, noticing something was wrong in his voice, quickly came over and asked with concern, "What's wrong? I just heard you call Principal Ge, was that him on the phone?"

Wu Jingzhong nodded: "It was him who made the call, but that guy knew I was contacting other people, so some beast must have told him the news."

"Do you know how much this bastard is demanding in breach of contract fees? Five hundred thousand!"

"Pshaw! Ever since I was recruited as the research group leader, I've been the one providing math training. Am I supposed to train myself?"

"You damn beast!"

The simple words made Li Lan frown instantly. The people her husband had just contacted were all close acquaintances.

She thought of them when her husband benefited, but these guys were ungrateful and turned around and told Ge Fei about it.

Ge Fei is ruthless enough, 500,000 —

He really dared to speak up. After a moment's hesitation, Li Lan looked at her husband with a worried expression: "Then—should we contact that Mr. Lin and tell him about this?"

"After all, it was the people you contacted who tipped you off. If this guy infiltrates Mr. Lin's group, and then reports him for something later, wouldn't that be troublesome?"

"Then you'll be the one who suffers."

"You're right!" Wu Jingzhong slapped his thigh, quickly pulled the business card out of his pocket, pressed the number on the card, and called Lin Man.

Meanwhile, Lin Man, who had arrived at the Second Primary School and was waiting at the school gate, heard his phone ring, blinked, and took out his phone.

Seeing that it was a local, unfamiliar number, he was a little taken aback, then composed himself and said in a clear voice, "Hello, this is Lin Man. How can I help you?"

"Mr. Lin, this is Wu Jingzhong!" Wu Jingzhong on the other end of the phone first introduced himself, and after 2 seconds, he spoke again: "I just contacted a few people, and they all expressed interest in joining us. However, I don't know who among them told Ge Fei, the principal in charge of personnel at the First Primary School, about this."

"Ge Fei just called me and demanded that I pay 500,000 yuan in damages for breach of contract."

"I need your help now!"

Wu Jingzhong spoke quickly, his words carrying a hint of worry.

Lin Man sensed the worry in his voice. He hung up the phone, got up, hailed a ride-hailing car, and headed straight for Jinzhong Garden.

On his way to Jinzhong Garden, he sent another message to Wang Ju, asking her to turn back.

Fortunately, Wang Ju still had some business to handle. After splitting up with Lin Man, she did not leave Xinhui immediately. She received a phone call, asked for the address, and hung up the phone after only saying one sentence for half an hour.

The ride-hailing car stopped in front of the gate of Jinzhong Garden. As soon as Lin Man got out of the car, she saw Wu Jingzhong standing at the gate.

He walked straight over and called out, "Teacher Wu!"

"Mr. Lin, this way please!" Wu Jingzhong pointed to the inside of the community, then walked ahead to lead the way for Lin Man, while introducing him to the people he had contacted by phone.

"Professor Wang teaches English. His classes are praised by several teachers in the English group. He once had the opportunity to compete for the position of head of the English research group, but when he was competing, the school brought in a PhD graduate from overseas, and he was eliminated."

"Mr. Gong is a Chinese language teacher. He can teach from first to sixth grade. His specialty is using various historical stories and fables to provide students with classical allusions and improve their reading comprehension skills."

"Ms. He is a music teacher, and I think a school should have some arts and physical education classes."

"Ms. Liu is an art teacher —"

After Wu Jingzhong finished introducing the people in detail, the two arrived at Wu Jingzhong's house. Lin Man asked Wu Jingzhong for a piece of paper and wrote down all the names and details of the people they had just heard.

After analyzing it for a while, he felt a chill run down his spine.

These people are not in competition with Wu Jingzhong, because they can fool people in other subjects, but they are bad at math, and that's just how it is.

He tossed the pen onto the table, closed his eyes, and began to take deep breaths.

About ten minutes later, the doorbell rang, and Lin Man's cell phone rang at the same time.

When I answered the phone, it was Wang Ju.

He had already brought Lin Yaobei and a group of children from Hongxing Village to the door.

Li Lan went over to open the door and then led a group of people into the living room.

Upon seeing the children, Wu Jingzhong glanced at them casually and asked, "Are these Mr. Lin's students?"

"That's right!" Lin Man picked up the A4 paper and pen from the table, walked over to the children, picked out one who was neither too young nor too old, and handed him the paper and pen: "Write down all the Tang poems you've read, write them down, and I'll buy you a big cake later, a chocolate cake!"

Upon hearing that there was chocolate cake, the child in front of Lin Man took the paper and pen, turned around and walked to the dining table next to him, climbed onto the chair, and then lay on the table to start writing from memory.

During the break in the children's dictation, Lin Man handed Wu Jingzhong an A4 sheet of paper. "Teacher Wu, you can test these kids and see if they meet your standards."

Looking at the blank paper, Wu Jingzhong's eyelids twitched involuntarily. He hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice and asked, "Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

We still need to discuss how to deal with Ge Fei from the First Elementary School.

"That's easy!" Lin Man waved his hand calmly. "Teacher Wu, just call Ge Fei and ask him to bring a lawyer. Then you can give these kids a good test."

"Leave the rest to us!"

Seeing Lin Man's calm demeanor, Wu Jingzhong was no longer in a hurry. He picked up the phone, dialed Ge Fei's number, and cursed at him over the phone. Then he invited Ge Fei to his house to confront him face-to-face.

After hanging up the phone, he picked up an A4 sheet of paper and wrote down his situation at school in detail. He then retrieved all the signed contracts from his study and handed them over to Lin Man.

Lin Man, who was standing to the side, picked up the explanation and contract and looked at them for a while before handing them to Wang Ju: "This contract is full of traps. Can you even handle it?"

Wang Ju took the briefing, glanced at it, and sneered twice: "No peace in the countryside!"

In short, everyone in the room stopped what they were doing and turned to look at Wang Ju.

The kids I brought today are all elementary school students. They all play on their phones and have naturally seen arguments on various social media websites. They also know what "乡毋宁" (xiang wu ning) means.

Meeting their gazes, Wang Ju let out another cold snort: "How dare you!"

This time, the group finally realized that Wang Ju was swearing.

After confirming, the group turned back to their own tasks.

If it's someone else criticizing us, then we have to argue back!

But if the locals in Shanghai are cursing, there's no need to argue with them, because they are discriminating against outsiders on an equal footing.

Of course, foreigners are not considered outsiders.

About 20 minutes later, the doorbell rang urgently. Li Lan was about to open the door when Wang Ju stopped her, walked around Li Lan, and opened the door.

Seeing the people standing at the door, Wang Ju raised her face, pointed her nostrils at them, and let out a cold snort. Then came another line that made everyone in the room hold their breath: "Homeless!"

The people at the door wanted to hit or curse, but Wang Ju was nearly 1.8 meters tall, taller than the people outside. After weighing the situation, the people outside could only threaten her with their eyes.

Wang Ju observed the changes in the people outside and sensed their intention to attack, but ultimately hesitated to act, only daring to threaten with their eyes. His disdain deepened: "Come in!"

He turned around and walked straight to the opposite side of the dining table to sit down.

As Ge Fei entered the foyer, he immediately began loudly questioning Wu Jingzhong. However, as he walked forward, the group of people in the living room also came into his view.

He quickly shut his mouth.

There were four strong men, a woman, and several children, while he only had three people on his side, so he was outnumbered.

Stopping in the living room and considering for a moment, Ge Fei whispered to Wu Jingzhong, "Teacher Wu, let's talk outside!"

As soon as the words were spoken, Wang Ju, who was sitting at the dining table, patted the table with her hand: "Come here and sit across from me. I'm his legal counsel. Tell me what's wrong."

The attitude was very firm, and Ge Fei on the other side also heard the word "legal affairs".

His expression turned ugly in that instant. He hadn't expected that what Wu Jingzhong said on the phone was true, that he really did have legal counsel.

After a moment of sullen expression, Ge Fei sat down across the table and said coldly, "Since you're in legal matters, I'll be frank."

""

"Wu Jingzhong is a talent introduced by our school. In order to attract talent, we have subsidized a lot of funds and provided a lot of policies."

"Moreover, there are training sessions every year, which require manpower and resources."

"He has breached the contract, so he must make up for all the manpower and resources we have wasted. Otherwise, we will have to see him in court."

"Never mind!" Wang Ju snorted an insult, leaning back in his chair. He picked up the A4 sheet of paper explaining the situation and continued speaking through his nose: "Wu Jingzhong is forty-two years old this year. He graduated with a master's degree at twenty-seven and was recruited by your school that year. You signed an eight-year talent recruitment contract. The price for recruiting him was a settlement allowance of 400,000 yuan and an initial salary of 7,000 yuan, with a promised annual increase of 1,500 yuan per month."

"He worked at your school for fifteen years. For the first three years, he was a regular math teacher. After that, he became the head of the math research group."

"He worked for fifteen years, far exceeding the eight-year period stipulated in the talent introduction contract you signed, so he doesn't need to return the settlement allowance."

"However, you promised to raise his salary by 1,500 yuan every year, but his current salary is only 16,000 yuan before tax."

"Moreover, this price of 16,000 yuan is the result of a series of conditions, including teacher title, academic qualifications, and appointment as the head of the research group."

"You have seriously breached the contract."

"Then there's the training fee. I looked at the materials he provided, and he became the head of the First Primary School Mathematics Project Team starting from the fourth year."

"The training for the mathematics research group is organized by the group leader, who studies the educational and learning direction and question types each year, and then conveys the research results to ordinary teachers."

"If you ask him for the training fees, it's like I have to pay for my own learning."

"That's very interesting!"

"Now that we've covered the previous points, let's talk about your contract renewal situation."

"Your renewed contract includes provisions for breach of contract and also stipulates training fees, but as I said before."

"The training for your mathematics research group is organized by the group leader."

"Furthermore, in this renewal contract, you only stipulated the obligations of Party B, but not the obligations of Party A."

"This is not a contract with equal rights and obligations. It is a typical contract signed by taking advantage of the unequal contracting position. If a dispute arises, the contract will be deemed invalid."

"Don't even think about the 500,000 yuan penalty you mentioned."

"I know you might say that as an outsider lawyer, I shouldn't get involved in these troublesome matters."

"Then I can also tell you frankly, it doesn't matter. I can find the connections that a country bumpkin like you can't find anytime sooner."

"Also, see that harmless-looking guy over there? The one grinning like an idiot."

"You teach elementary school, so you probably don't remember him."

"He was once the top scorer in your province's college entrance examination. He came from Wudaokou and went into politics."

"I've said what I wanted to say, now you can say what you want to say."

"9

Across the table, Ge Fei was thoroughly humiliated by Wang Ju's tirade. He wasn't entirely clear on the previous contracts, but he was in charge of the subsequent ones.

Therefore, he was very clear about the terms and conditions.

The terms only stipulated Wu Jingzhong's obligations, but did not mention his rights, let alone the school's obligations.

Legally, such contracts are generally considered invalid.

If things were to proceed normally, at this point, they should have made phone calls to people and used their networks to put pressure on Wu Jingzhong.

But----

Ge Fei slowly turned his head to look at the harmless-looking young man beside him. He really didn't remember him being a top scorer in the college entrance exam.

However, he negotiated with others many times.

In those negotiations, they held the upper hand; it was always others who needed their help and others who were the ones who had to lower their stance.

This was the first time he had ever encountered a situation where the man first berated himself, spoke to himself with an air of superiority, and then concluded with the defiant statement that he couldn't outmaneuver the man through connections.

In this situation, either the other party is bluffing, or they genuinely have the confidence to back it up.

He dared not gamble.

If you don't gamble, there's a 99% chance the other party is lying, but if you gamble, the probability becomes 50%.

Either the other party is a fake, and I beat them up, I might be able to get the compensation I'm claiming from Wu Jingzhong.

Either the other party is genuine, they beat you up, and then they demand compensation according to the contract, in which case you'll have to pay out of pocket.

Just as he hesitated about how to handle the situation, Wang Ju across from him raised his hand and slammed it on the table again: "Can you country bumpkins hurry up and get to work?"

"If you don't know how to draft a complaint, I can do it for you. Each complaint will cost ten thousand dollars."

"As for going to court, you can find someone yourself."

"Will it work?"

The mocking words were like a slap in the face to Ge Fei. He gritted his teeth, stood up, and said to Wu Jingzhong, "Consider yourself lucky!"
