"What do you think, Mr. Zhou? Do you think this is acceptable?" Director Tian asked Zhou Yi.
As for the deposit... Zhou Yi hesitated for a moment, then said, "Director Tian, I need to make a phone call and ask before deciding."
After saying that, Zhou Yi went to the side and called Fang Dazhuang.
Before he could say anything, he heard a complaining voice from the other side.
"Why are you calling? I'm busy..."
Zhou Yi already had experience with this kind of thing, and said casually, "I'll pay for the consultation."
"Okay, Mr. Zhou, what do you want to consult?"
Mr. Fang is really too much... Zhou Yi secretly complained. Based on what he knew, the other party's level must be at least in the red circle of first-tier cities.
Compared to Jingzhou City, it is still a little bit worse, so Fang Dazhuang actually doesn’t like money very much.
But he has to act like he loves money more than anything else...
"It's like this, Mr. Fang. My upstairs neighbor has come up with this idea..."
Zhou Yi briefly explained the upstairs neighbor's idea and asked at the end, "Do you think this is okay?"
Fang Dazhang on the other end of the line thought for a moment, then quickly replied, "Speaking of risks, there's actually another point. If I just give you the deposit, someone might sue you for extortion!"
"What? Blackmail?" Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment: "Didn't they offer this voluntarily?"
Fang Dazhuang's laughter echoed over the phone: "Xiao Zhou, you're still too young. They're offering to give it to you now, but when they come to cause trouble for you, they won't say the same thing anymore."
"You have to understand that your actions are like fighting violence with violence. If you really pursue it, it will also be illegal. So when they say they can't take it anymore and can only give you money to buy peace, it's just called a deposit. What will you do?"
"Xiao Zhou, even though you said there were people from the community and property management at the scene who could testify, you still have to be careful. When you're out in society, you can only judge a person by their appearance."
Zhou Yi nodded, but he felt a little cold sweat on his forehead. He didn't think this had anything to do with extortion.
Just because of his own reasons, he attaches great importance to money. No matter whether he is paying out money or taking money in, he needs to be cautious!
So I thought about asking for advice, but I didn’t expect it to be like this!
"Then Mr. Fang, what should I do?"
"I was just talking about the worst-case scenario. According to what you said, there's a 90% chance that they didn't intend to do this, or even that they didn't know they could do it..."
"So you don't have to worry. Just tell them that the deposit is fine, but they won't give it to you. Just give it to the community, and then go to the notary office to get a notarized document. If there's any more nuisance, the money will be donated to the community. If there's no nuisance, the community can return it."
After Mr. Fang finished speaking, Zhou Yi instantly understood that Mr. Fang was still quite capable.
As long as he doesn't take it, no matter what the other party wants to do, it's not extortion. Needless to say, what does notarization mean? It is handed over to the community, but it does not belong to the community.
However, the community can't help you for nothing, so we agreed to donate directly to the community if you disturb others again...
No problem!
Lawyer Fang was about to hang up when Zhou Yi hurriedly said, "By the way, Lawyer Fang, wait a minute. I just received another letter. It looks like a lawyer's letter!"
"And it was sent to me by the legal department of my previous company, saying I had to go through out-of-court mediation, otherwise they would sue me for the losses I caused to the company during my previous work. Look at this..."
"A lawyer's letter is just a piece of waste paper... Wait, what are you saying? If you don't mediate, they're going to sue you? Great!"
Hmm... Hmm? Zhou Yi was stunned when he heard this. Is this good?
"Tell them, tell them directly, whoever doesn't sue is a grandson, hahahaha!"
Listening to the bursts of joyful laughter coming from the phone, Zhou Yi couldn't help but feel scared.
"But Mr. Fang, they're suing me. If they win, I think I'll have to pay compensation..."
Attorney Fang said nonchalantly, "What's there to be afraid of? If they really had evidence, they wouldn't just be sending a lawyer's letter. Besides, I know your situation. You're just a designer, working overtime every day. What kind of losses can you cause?"
"Let them sue. Trying to reach a settlement through counter-suing sounds familiar to you. Don't worry, just tell them this!"
Well, Zhou Yi thought about it carefully and it seemed really familiar. Although it was different from the one on the game platform, the core principle was the same.
These companies and the like always threaten you, saying if you don't do this, we will do that.
After hanging up the phone and transferring the money, Zhou Yi returned and repeated Fang Dazhuang's suggestion. Finally, he said, "How about this? Do you think it's okay? If so, we'll sign a letter of guarantee and have it notarized!"
Xu Yufeng's daughter was stunned. She didn't quite understand why Zhou Yi would do this. After all, money is a good thing, and the standard for disturbing the public is hard to say.
If any noise in the future is considered a nuisance to the public, you won’t be able to get the money back.
Even Xu Yufeng's daughter had already made preparations and had no intention of taking the money back.
But she didn't care, as long as everything returned to normal.
Seeing that Xu Yufeng's daughter agreed, Zhou Yi looked at Director Tian of the community neighborhood committee again.
Director Tian also hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded in agreement. Money is not important. The main thing is to resolve the conflict.
