Kebetha lifted her 165-pound frame from the office swivel chair, walked around the huge desk, and yanked open the door of her private office. In the reception room outside, the sound of Miss B. Essie's typing sounded like a machine gun.Ke Baisha stood at the door, waiting for Elsie's work to come to an end. Bu Aiqian finished typing a letter at a very fast speed, pulled the typed letter paper from the drum, lowered her body and took out an envelope from the drawer, and was about to type the address when she saw the man standing at the door white sha. Mrs. Ke, what's the matter?

what are you playing Letters to lawyers. Are you saying you won't send any letters? no more. but i think i I know you will.Ke Baisha said: I think so too.Actually we were wrong.These lawyers are well-known for their personal injury litigation.I think we can send them a letter to solicit some business and maybe there are witnesses that can't be found or something. Bu Aiqian said: That's it, I think it's a good concept.This allows you to get in touch with potential employers who can make a lot of money upfront, and That's why.Bai Sha interrupted her and said: I already hate making big money.It’s not that she hates money, Baisha hastily added: it’s that she hates the tension, excitement, and high blood pressure that come with making money.

I'm actually not used to handling big cases at all.I've always been running a small, small money-making detective agency.Handle some cases that other detective agencies don't want to handle.Divorce or something.Then this kid Lai Tangnuo came here and asked me to do work for him, and forced himself to change from a buddy to a partner.He came here to work within thirty minutes, and the nature of the work here has changed.Of course my income has increased, and my blood pressure has also increased.Every year at the end of the year, the government will collect 50% of my income as income tax, but no one can cut my blood pressure in half.Lai Tangnuo now goes to Europe for vacation comfortably.I'm going to manage the business here in my own way.

Bu Aiqian didn't make a sound, quietly opened a drawer, and put in the list of lawyers that Baisha selected from the court records.Picking up a pile of letters about two inches thick, I asked: How about the typed letters?Didn't send it? Baisha said: Tear it up and throw it in the wastebasket No, wait a minute, God, these letters are also depreciated, letter paper, envelopes, typewriters, Elsie, we use it.Here, I'll sign it, but we don't need to type anymore. Baisha turned around, walked into her private office, sat her huge, muscular body into her swivel office chair, and used her arms to clear a space on the desk in front of her, where she could sign the letter brought by Elsie.

Aixi Bu put the letter on the table in front of her and stood beside Mrs. Ke. Every time Mrs. Ke signed a letter, Aixi blotted the ink dry with a semicircular blotting paper.Her body kept bending down, her eyes swept across the open door, half staring at the reception room outside.Then suddenly she said: A man just entered the reception room. What kind of man?Bai Sha said: Damn it, this signature is broken, I just can't use it for two purposes. Bu Aiqian said: I'll go and see what he's here for. OK, close the door. Elsie entered the reception room and closed the door of Baisha's private office behind herself.Kebetha continued to sign her name, blotted the ink herself with blotting paper, and glanced now and then at the door leading to the reception room.

When all the letters were about to be signed, Bu Aiqian came in again and closed the door carefully. Who is it?Baisha asked. A surnamed Bei, named Bei Fude. What does he want? Lai Tangnuo. Did you tell him Tang Nuo went to Europe? Yes, I also told him that you are Tang Nuo's partner.Tell him also that you can receive him immediately.However, he was disappointed not to see Tang Nuo. What kind of person is he? He was about thirty-five, tall, with high cheekbones and reddish hair.Eyes look good, just very worried.He is a sales engineer. rich? It should be a little bit that he seems to be doing well.

too much? Medium coat material is good. All right.Bai Sha said: Get him in.I'll see what he wants to do.If he was Tang Nuo's bad friend, he must be a gambler.He maybe why are you standing there staring at me? I'm waiting for you to finish. Be less polite.Don't let politeness kill our effectiveness when a wealthy and likely employer is waiting for us.Go and bring him in. Bu Aiqian quickly opened the door and said: Mrs. Ke, a senior partner in our agency, can give you a few minutes now, sir, please come inside. Bai Sha once again concentrated on the work of signing the letter paper.After signing the last letter and drying the ink, she looked up.But the direction to look at is towards Elsie.

Elsie, post these letters. Yes, Mrs. Ko. Don't forget to stamp Confidential and Personal on each envelope. Yes, Mrs. Ko. Bai Sha glanced over and looked at the tall man.Your surname is Bei? He opened his mouth wide and smiled.Yes, Mrs. Ko.He stretched his hand out across the table.My surname is Bei, and my name is Bei Fude. Betha gave him a hand halfheartedly.Lai Tangnuo you want to meet, he is in Europe now, on vacation. Your secretary told me, what a headache. Do you know Tang Nuo? Just heard the name for a long time.A friend who once gave Tang Nuo a job told me.Said he was the brightest little man he had ever met.He is said to be quick-witted, fast-moving, and courageous.He used oral descriptions, but he left a very deep impression on Mr. Lai.

What did he say? What he said was rough, and I can't repeat it, ladies here.I Do you think there are foul words in the world that I haven't heard?Bai Sha said excitedly. Not really, but he generally said that Tang Nuo had both brains and courage. Hey!Bai Sha said, and after a while, she added excitedly: How about it, he is not in the United States at the moment, do you want to tell me everything? Are you his partner? Yes. Bei Fude looked at her carefully as if she were a car for sale. Bai Sha said angrily: Brother, we are not on a blind date. If you have anything to say, you can talk about it quickly. If you don’t want to talk about it, you can leave early. I can continue to do my work.

I would never have considered hiring a female private eye before. Well, then don't think about it for me. Baisha reached for the phone. But you give me the impression that you only pay attention to the effect, not the appearance. up to you. Mrs. Ke, do you do cases that pay for your work? don't do it.Baisha's answer was very brief. Mr. Bei moved uncomfortably in his chair. Mrs. Ke, I am a sales engineer, and my expenses are too high recently, and What does a sales engineer do?Baisha interrupted him to ask. He said: The name sounds good, but he is actually a salesman and designer. He can't eat enough, he can't starve to death, and he waits for his salary every month, and he is not allowed to discuss salary increases.

That's it, what's your problem? Bei Fude was not at ease again.Mrs. Ke, I have encountered a very embarrassing situation. I don't know what to do, and I don't know who to go to.I even It is not necessary to tell of your own difficulties.Bai Sha interrupted his topic again.Many people who come here waste their time talking about their spiritual development.No need, just say what you have. Mrs. Ke, do you do the work of collecting bills for customers? What bill? Bad debt court awards and more. quit. Why? There is no money to be made. Mr. Bei moved in the chair again.What if I can tell you with certainty that there is a sum of 20,000 yuan in compensation that can be collected to ensure that you can pay working expenses from the day of participation, and you can get bonuses after receiving it, so what? Baisha's eyes showed a look of enthusiasm.Who should pay the 20,000 yuan compensation?she asked. Mr. Bei said.Let's put it this way.If A has awarded compensation, it shall be borne by B.But B, for some reason, the ruling does not affect him.So C got Baisha raised her right hand.There is no need to come to A, B, and C.I'm not interested in A, B, and C. I've been afraid of A, B, and C since I was in elementary school.Don't talk about what you want to say, just say it straight. Bei Fude said: Mrs. Ke, it is very difficult to speak up. Then you are not a salesman at all. He laughed nervously: I want you to collect a sum of compensation, the amount is 20,000 yuan.It is impossible for you to receive all of them, but as much as you receive, you will draw a percentage of it. To whom should the compensation be collected?Bai Sha interrupted. I. You mean you come to hire me and collect compensation from yourself? Yes. I don't understand. The compensation cannot be paid to me, and the court ruled that it will not affect me. Ke Baisha said in an angry tone: I understand.You want me to charge you an indemnity, because you don't have to pay indemnity at all, no problem, this is a common job, we do several a day. Mr. Bei smiled apologetically.Mrs. Ke, you don't understand. A year ago, the market was depressed and the goods were unsalable. A good salesman had an excellent opportunity to make money. You make money. Little earned a vote. Where do you stay now? All under my wife's name. Baisha slapped her eyelids twice, which is her habitual action when she is really interested in something.She fixed her eyes on Beiford, like an insect collector who pins an insect with a needle.She said emphatically: I think, I really understand now.But since you start, go on, I want you to tell me what you didn't want to tell me. Bei Fude said: I once had a partner, it happened that his surname was Nan, and his name was Nan Qiaoqi.We didn't get along very well.I think he keeps taking advantage of me.In fact, even now I still believe that he once took advantage of me and always wanted to take advantage of me.At that time, he was in charge of internal affairs, and I was in charge of external affairs.Unfortunately, I couldn't catch his evidence, so I decided to use my own method to deal with him.Nan is a smart man. He hired a lawyer to fight a lawsuit with me.He does have evidence against me.I have no evidence against him.The court awarded 20,000 yuan in compensation. At that time, bad luck came, and I couldn't make a penny selling my work.It's not that I don't work hard, but that no matter how hard I try, I can't do business.Because I have no income, I transferred all my property to my wife.Each piece became her name. Did Mr. Nan find a way to prevent you from transferring? certainly.He claimed that the transfer was an act of deceit to creditors. When did you transfer the property?After the ruling? Oh no, I'm much smarter than him for that.However, Mrs. Ko, if even now he has the evidence to catch me this transfer of property for the purpose of defrauding him as a creditor, my position is that we will not discuss this point.Anyway, in a word, my property is now in my wife's name, and legally speaking, it belongs to her. In the court procedure, she must also take an oath to prove that these are her unique and separate property between husband and wife.Baisha said. Yes. You gave it to her? Yes. How do you testify under oath? same as her. What should the judge do? It was judged that I am engaged in a job with uncertain income, sometimes with a lot of income, and sometimes with no income for a long time, so I not only have the right, but also should be responsible for the family, so my special transfer this time is to protect my wife's life.Mr. Bei smiled and said: The verdict is very good. Bai Sha didn't laugh, she asked: How much money? 20,000 yuan plus interest and Instead of asking you to award compensation, ask about your property? You said enough property to be transferred to the wife's name? Yes. It's a pretty big sum. I can't find anything in court records. Probably more than sixty thousand yuan. How are you getting on with her? Baisha's question clearly hit an itch.Bei Fude changed himself into a sitting position.Now this is one of my obsessions too. what happened? In fact, there is no mother-in-law who cares too much. Where does the mother-in-law live? San Francisco. What is it Mrs. Mrs. Gu, Mrs. Gu Taili. Do you have other children? A daughter, Jialu is a spoiled brat.She lives here, Los Angeles.She works as a secretary and changes bosses frequently.She has been living with us for the past few months. Are you and your wife siblings? To be honest, Mrs. Ke, Jialu and my wife are not related at all. Baisha waited for him to explain this relationship. She was adopted at a young age.She herself never knew.It wasn't until the last couple of months that I realized it. Is it younger than your wife? Much younger than my wife. She knew she was adopted, so what? She wants to find her own biological parents. Where can I find it? Find it from Mrs. Valley and from my wife. do they know I think so. But they won't tell her? refused. Why? They think that they think it is better to keep the status quo. How old is Jialu? Twenty-three. Where is your wife? Thirty years old.But Mrs. Cole, it is the ruling that I want to discuss with you.For these other things, Mr. Bei said apologetically: Mrs. Ke, it was just accidental and irrelevant. Whether he is accidental or not, I asked on purpose. Yes, you brought this in. You want to compromise this case with Mr. Nan? Yes. Why? The whole thing can be left behind. Do you also want to regain control of the family's economic power? This is not the reason.Mainly for the mother-in-law. What does it have to do with her? There are many relationships. Mother-in-law won't let you take it back? Northford writhed uneasily.Mrs. Ke, you really don't care if I'm embarrassed or not, just speak up when you have something to say.I wasn't going to tell you all of this. What are you going to tell me? Simply put.Nan Qiaoqi made a mistake.He rolled some money in another institution, this time he was not smart enough, maybe I was too stupid before, anyway this time he was caught. What does this have to do with you? Mr. Nan must have 2,500 yuan, otherwise he will go to jail.He must also have the money within two or three days. You want me to find him?Baisha asked. Yes. Putting a sum of cash back and forth in front of his nose? Yes. Forced him to compromise on the compensation? Yes. Do you think he would compromise a sum of 20,000 yuan, which was awarded by the court, for 2,500 yuan? I'm sure he will. Then why don't you make a phone call yourself and talk to him? Mrs. Ko, this is where I have trouble doing it myself. What is the difficulty? In theory, I'm the one who shouldn't have money.Do you understand?If I come forward to negotiate a compromise, it means that I admit to myself that I have money.My lawyer warned me about this.I am a broke person. Are you? Yes. Why don't you ask your wife to come forward and make a compromise? Mr. Bei violently touched the flesh on both sides of his chin with his fingers.Mrs. Ke, you know, there are some personal relationships. I have no idea.Bai Sha said bluntly: But I never pursue things that are useless to me.How do you want me to proceed? I have already drawn up the script for what I want you to do. You don't have to draw up any script for me, Baisha said: I have forgotten everything you told me.The nasty thing about court-ruled reparations is how easily the debtor gets off the hook.Let me tell him that I can give him 2,500 yuan on the condition that he give up chasing you for the 20,000 yuan. No matter what, he will feel that it is too easy for you to run away.However, if I go and tell him, I will force you to take out 5,000 yuan, of which I will keep 2,500 yuan, and 2,500 yuan will be used for him to solve the current problem, so that he will feel a little more plausible, and he will easy to accept.At least he wants you to pay a quarter of the damages. Mr. Bei's eyes lit up.What a great idea.Mrs. Ko, good idea.I know now that you have experience and insight. Baisha did not respond at all to his compliments.She moved a bit, and the chair she was sitting on creaked.She looked straight at the man sitting in his client chair. Now, she said: We should talk about how much of my good is in this?
