"Mr. Qian, isn't this contract incorrect?"
Chen Luo picked up the contract with a smile on his face, but his eyes flashed with coldness.
The problems can be detected simply by glancing at the main terms of the contract.
In his previous life, Chen Luo was the CEO of a company and had signed at least eight hundred, if not a thousand, contracts.
Do they really think I'm some naive and foolish college student? They even have such an unfair clause that the lessor has the sole authority to determine damages during the usage period and that the lessee bears all the responsibility.
If this is really signed, and he breaches the contract at the last minute and comes to assess the damages, I'll be left penniless.
Seeing Chen Luo pointing to the damage assessment clause, a hint of panic appeared in Boss Qian's eyes.
"Ah, this, this is fine, everyone writes it this way."
He was initially happy to receive Chen Luo's call in the morning, because the shop was indeed difficult to rent out.
The main reason is that the location is too bad, and no one has come to rent it for more than half a year.
But then he received a call from Liu Feng, who threatened and bribed him to make sure he ripped off Chen Luo, or else he would ruin Chen Luo's business.
As long as he can bankrupt Chen Luo's shop, then let him take over the Liu family's business.
Originally, Mr. Qian was a restaurant businessman, but not on a large scale, with only a few restaurants in operation.
With his wealth and connections, he was just an ant that could be crushed at any moment in front of Liu Feng. Under coercion and enticement, Boss Qian still decided to have someone make such a contract full of traps as Liu Feng instructed.
In his view, what would a college student know about contract terms? Wasn't this a piece of cake? But he didn't expect to be exposed so easily.
But Mr. Qian had been in business for many years, so he reacted quickly.
"Young man, there's definitely no problem with the contract, but if you really want to rent it, I can give you a 10% rent reduction. Make your decision quickly."
Offer a small benefit in time, so that the college student feels that they can reduce costs and will definitely be eager to sign a contract with you.
Hongye, who was standing to the side, saw through most of Boss Qian's expression and plans.
Chen Luo's ability to spot the problems with the contract surprised Hongye, but as someone who had never done business before, she knew that theory was one thing, but there were too many variables in practice, and she would inevitably suffer losses when dealing with seasoned businessmen.
"Young Master Luo..." Hongye couldn't just stand by and watch Chen Luo suffer a loss, so she had to remind him that this kind of contract still needed to be judged by a professional lawyer.
I just contacted the company's legal department, and they're almost here, but it will still take a little longer.
Just as she was about to speak, Chen Luo turned to look at Hongye first.
"Assistant Hongye, I remember your company has a professional legal counsel, right? Could you please have him come and help us? I will pay the normal legal consultation fee."
Before Hongye could reply, Chen Luo put down the contract and gently tapped it with his index finger.
"Mr. Qian, a 10% rent reduction is indeed tempting, but I don't really like taking advantage of others."
Whether there's a problem with this contract or not, it doesn't matter to me what you say.
“However.” At this point, Chen Luo paused, looked up and met Boss Qian’s gaze, his eyes suddenly flashing with a chilling aura.
"I remember that if a lease agreement contains clauses that are suspected of being fraudulent or infringing on the basic rights of the lessee, you will be held legally responsible."
When Chen Luo said these words, Hongye and Liuhua, who were standing to the side, were both stunned.
Is this really Chen Luo? He's usually such a kind and sunny person, but he has this side to him, managing to intimidate Boss Qian with just a few words.
Liu Hua, in particular, looked at Chen Luo with eyes full of adoration.
My brother Luo is amazing! He's incredible! Did he secretly learn some kind of verbal magic? He controlled the other person with just a few words. He's even better than Naruto.
"Ah, this, this..." Boss Qian was speechless after Chen Luo's few words, and beads of sweat kept appearing on his forehead.
Is this guy really a college student? He's more impressive than any of the big bosses I've ever met!
No, I can't let him intimidate me. A kid who's not even 20 years old can scare me. What will become of me?
Moreover, if this matter is really messed up, and Liu Feng really comes after me, I really can't handle it.
We need to find a way to make him sign this contract.
"Hmph! It seems you really have no intention of renting it. In that case, I'll be leaving now."
Boss Qian decided to use a feigned retreat, pretending to be angry and refusing to rent out the shop, thus forcing Chen Luoxian to lose his composure.
"Wait a minute." Hongye spoke up at this moment, while Boss Qian still pretended to be angry.
"What are you waiting for? You're not sincere anyway, so what else do you want to do?"
Hongye pointed to the entrance of the milk tea shop, and Chen Luo immediately understood.
"It's nothing. Our lawyer has arrived. Please help us determine the reasonableness of this contract."
Following his gaze, Mr. Qian saw a stunningly beautiful woman, easily over 170cm tall, slowly walk in carrying a briefcase.
"Assistant Hongye, is there any contract matter you require my assistance with?"
Hongye looked at Chen Luo, and Chen Luo nodded to her.
"Attorney Zheng Xuan, this is Mr. Chen Luo. He is currently in a contract dispute with Mr. Qian over a shop lease. The contract is here. Please use your professional perspective to determine whether the contract is suspected of fraud."
Upon hearing Chen Luo's name, Zheng Xuan immediately became respectful.
As Wen Wan's personal legal advisor and confidante, she naturally knew of Chen Luo's existence.
This is Mr. Wen's darling, the future boss's wife. Those with high emotional intelligence have already started to curry favor with him!
"Mr. Chen, please let me see the contract."
Chen Luo handed over the contract, and Zheng Xuan only glanced at it before immediately noticing the problem.
“Mr. Qian, there are eight clauses in your contract that are not in accordance with the law, and two of them are even suspected of fraud. I have the right to protect the legitimate rights and interests of my client.”
“If you insist on renting it out with this lease agreement, I have the right to sue you for suspected fraud and infringement of my client’s legitimate rights and interests.”
After a barrage of attacks, Boss Qian panicked.
He was just a small business owner and didn't have much contact with legal professionals. This beautiful lawyer looked like she was no pushover, and if he were to be sued, he would be in big trouble.
"No, no, no, young man, I... I'll change the contract, and I'll even give you a 20% discount on the rent. Let's just call it even. What do you think?"
"Oh? Twenty percent?" Chen Luo's eyes were full of threat as he looked at Boss Qian.
"No, no, no, thirty percent, oh no, fifty percent! Please, young man, just let me go."
Chen Luo smiled with satisfaction: "Alright, since Mr. Qian is so sincere, then let's have a pleasant cooperation. As for the lease agreement, I'll trouble Attorney Zheng to take care of it."
"You're welcome. It's my pleasure to serve you."
Chen Luo got up to see Boss Qian out, but at that moment a sudden screech of brakes came from the mall entrance.
"Hmm? This braking sound sounds so familiar. Haven't I heard it before?"
