Zhou Yi certainly didn't think everyone was a good person, otherwise he wouldn't have bothered to take it so seriously. He just didn't expect that people could sometimes go this far.
Because the old man's mood was still a little unstable, before Wanhai started talking again, he was taken to the side by Miss Weiwei to rest.
After watching his grandmother leave, Wanhai began to tell the story again.
If you calculate it in terms of money, it’s really not a big deal. At least for Wan Hai before, it was really nothing. It was just more than 100 kilograms of tofu made by his grandmother.
A pound of tofu costs about two yuan, so over a hundred pounds of tofu would only cost about three hundred yuan. Wan Hai could buy countless pounds of tofu with his monthly salary.
However, sometimes we think that some small things can have a huge impact on some people. The matter was not too troublesome. Wan Hai's grandmother was a tofu maker and was actually over 70 years old this year. It was just that Zhou Yi estimated her age wrongly.
In the past, the old couple made tofu together. Later, Wanhai’s grandfather passed away, and only the old woman was left making tofu.
There's not that much to do.
"Making tofu is very hard work. Actually, Ms. Zhou, my parents, and I have advised her many times to stop working, saying that we don't need this little money, but she won't listen and says she can't sit still."
Wan Hai said there.
"So we just let her do whatever she wants and not be so busy. But the old lady just feels that she must do more every day, even if it means selling more..."
"About a week ago, my grandma went to sell tofu as usual. Maybe the location was not suitable, so the urban management came and stopped her from selling there and asked her to move."
"After that, I didn't know what to say. A lot of tofu fell to the ground, and the scale was still in my hand. My grandmother went after him to tell him what to do. But when she came back, all the tofu she had put there was gone."
"I heard... I heard that after my grandmother chased after him, someone said that since no one wanted the tofu, he took a piece home to eat.
"After that, some people saw that he was fine with it, so they went up to take some too. You took a piece, I took a piece, and they took everything. When my grandma came back, she had nothing left. She cried for a long time..."
Zhou Yi didn't say anything. The tofu was obviously cut into small pieces and packaged in order to sell it faster.
So even if it falls on the ground, there is still a plastic bag outside.
Zhou Yi knew the situation without having to think about it. Many people took advantage of others without caring about anything else. For example, when some trucks overturned on the highway, local people gathered together and took the money directly.
Or on the street, if some small vendors have conflicts with others, such as fighting for a spot or something, and their stalls overturn, someone will go up and take the goods.
Everyone likes to take advantage, and even thinks that if I don't take advantage of it, I'm losing out. This idea is very popular among some older people.
"Later, she came home and told us about this. She asked us to go find those people and say they stole her tofu and wanted us to get it back. But you saw it, Mr. Zhou, how little the tofu cost. They didn't care when we reported it to the police."
"But, day after day, my grandma's mental state is very bad. She keeps complaining that her tofu was stolen. My parents are too busy to take care of it, so I came to the company to consult and see if there is any solution.
He is not an old employee of the company, but he has been here for some time, but he has never had the opportunity to come to the legal department.
This time I just came here to ask if there is any solution.
I had checked online before, but there was no reliable method. Many answers told me to just consider myself unlucky and not expect anyone to take care of such things.
This kind of thing happens too often. Basically, you can say that people take it and leave, and you don’t even know who took it.
Not to mention looking for anyone else, I can only blame myself for my bad luck.
But the old man is in very bad condition now, even a little dazed, so there is nothing we can do.
Zhou Yi also sighed. This kind of thing is not a big deal, but because it is not a big deal, it is much more difficult to solve.
Zhou Yi then looked at Wang Daoren next to him and said, "Old Wang, do you have any good solution to this problem?"
Wang Daoren hesitated for a moment before saying, "Boss Zhou, there is a solution, but it's not easy. We can sue those who took the things."
"But to be honest, Mr. Zhou, first of all, we don't know who those people are. It's too difficult to sue them. This is no longer a matter of cost."
"Secondly, if you sue a case like this, even if you win, you'll only get some money back..."
Wang Daoren said it very clearly. Civil litigation is one method, but it is difficult to do. Even if you barely win the lawsuit, you can only get the money back.
It's so troublesome, it's better to discuss it with the family, give the elderly some money, and just coax them over. After all, old children are old children, and the elderly need to be coaxed just like children.
However, it was never Zhou Yi's idea to solve the problem in this way and keep the peace.
After thinking it over carefully, Zhou Yi said, "Old Wang, civil rights protection is definitely like this. Gathering evidence and the other party's personal information is laborious and costly. What I mean is, can we find a way to rely on criminal law?"
If there is a criminal possibility, even if it is only a possibility, the public security organs must file a case. As long as the case is filed, they can investigate it slowly. At the very least, the public security organs can investigate personal information for the purpose of public prosecution, which is definitely faster and more efficient than individuals.
"I remember learning about a crime I was talking to someone about before, called the crime of gathering a crowd to loot. Do you think this is possible?"
