Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Hey Mike, did you hear that Tommy from Kigger's Supermarket took him to court?" "I know, this is a big deal now, even my youngest son knows about it." "Hey! Henk?  ? Why haven't you come back after traveling for so long? No, no, nothing happened to me. I wanted to tell you that something big happened in the town, right? That's right, that black-hearted vampire.  , Tommy, the unloader of his supermarket, is ready to" "In less than a day, Tommy's accusation against Kigree spread throughout the streets of Robles. Since this small town is isolated in the southernmost part of Montana,  Therefore, it is impossible to encounter something new in normal times. Now that something happened that can arouse everyone's interest, they said they would pay full attention to it.  Sitting on the sofa at home, Zhao Yi helped Guoguo comb her pigtails while watching TV. The child's hair is very long now, but it doesn't matter to Zhao Yi because he has special skills in combing pigtails.  Use a vacuum cleaner at home to unscrew the head, then turn on the power and aim the vacuum cleaner tube at the back of Guoguo's head. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? A brand new braid is out.  "Dear, why are you having trouble with Jigre?" Mia came from the inner hall, holding a glass of juice in her hand, handed it to Guoguo and walked to Zhao Yi: "He also helped find a lawyer, Jigre is messing with him.  Is it your turn?" Zhao Yi hugged his wife and kissed her gently, smiling: "Okay, I'll be honest with you. In fact, I'm too bored. I don't know what to do when I stay in town every day, so I have to find it myself.  Let's have some fun." "Oh, okay, you're really bored." Mia rolled her eyes after hearing her husband's explanation, and then said, "How about we go on a trip when Guoguo is on vacation?  Just take a stroll." "Traveling" Zhao Yi curled his lips: "Traveling is not interesting. I think we should wait until this Sunday to go to the ranch. I also want to ask Leo about the next step."  "What's the next development?" Mia asked doubtfully: "What's the next development?" "Open a factory! You forgot, I have always wanted to open a factory." Zhao Yi said with a smile: "Xiao Lizi won the championship for us.  A lot of liquidity, and I made a lot of money last time I bought it!¡± ¡°Oh! I almost forgot.¡± Mia slapped her forehead.  She has always forgotten that the small chestnuts her husband bought that day won the championship.  And Olizi¡¯s odds of winning are very high!  "How much did you buy that day?" Mia asked, shrinking into her husband's arms.  Zhao Yi said cautiously: "My dear, you can't be angry after I finish speaking!" "It's okay, I'm not angry, our family won money anyway." Mia said with a smile.  "Don't be angry that I lied to you!" Zhao Yi was still not at ease. As we all know, women are very dangerous creatures, and they are duplicitous.  They often say one thing and do another behind the scenes.  Mia straightened up, saw her husband looking like he was facing a formidable enemy, and laughed out loud: "Don't worry, I swear to the Lord! Mia will never be angry." Zhao Yi was completely relieved after hearing this.  , he knew that his wife was the most sincere believer, and she would never change her face if she made such a vow.  Then he took a deep breath and said: "I bought Xiaolizi for 800,000 yuan" "What!" After hearing this, Mia immediately exploded: "Oh my God! Youyou" Zhao Yi quickly hugged her  She: "You said you won't be angry, and we won! Honey, don't be angry" "Damn it." Mia sat back on the sofa, her eye circles were a little red, and she looked like she was about to cry, little  Guoguo was watching the cartoon SpongeBob SquarePants.  Hearing the movement behind him, he turned his little head and looked over. Zhao Yi immediately hugged his wife and whispered: "Stop making trouble, Guo Guo is still here." Mia reached out and touched the corners of her eyes, raised her head and faced Guo Guo  Guo Guo smiled and said: "Little princess, is Spongebob Squarepants good-looking?" Guo Guo saw that her parents were fine, so she smiled and showed her small white teeth: "Good-looking! Patrick Star is so silly!" "Haha, Patrick Star is a fool.  . Spongebob is cute, Guoguo remember to watch it carefully and tell her father the story of Spongebob later." Zhao Yi said with a smile.  "Well!" Guoguo got the task, nodded her head seriously, then turned around and watched the cartoon more intently than before.  Zhao Yi hugged his wife and apologized. Indeed, he went too far this time.  When two people get married and use a huge amount of US$800,000 without telling their other half, no one would feel comfortable doing this.  "My dear, even if we win money, I will be very unhappy if you do this." After a while, Mia turned her head, looked at Zhao Yi and said seriously: "80W, this is not 8,000, nor 8W, if we bet  If you lose, you will lose 80W!¡±   "I think this approach is too risky." Zhao Yi hurriedly responded: "I promise you that any future expenditures will have your approval first! Uh I swear to Grandpa Sanqing!" "Sanqing  Grandpa?" Mia was puzzled.  "He is the god of our country." Zhao Yi said: "Forgive me, Mia, I admit my mistake this time." "What else can I do if I don't forgive you? You have done everything." Mia shook her head, and then begged:  "Please Yi, don't lie to me like this again in the future. If you want to spend money, at least tell me first so that I can have peace of mind." At any rate, Zhao finally took care of Mia's emotions.  Yi smiled and said: "Our family now has enough money to open a factory." He was in a good mood, otherwise why would he be so bored that he would help Tommy sue the boss.  With Olizi winning the championship, along with bonuses and gambling winnings, Zhao Yi gained nearly 30 million US dollars in additional activity funds!  This amount was enough to complete his initial plan.  "Then what are you going to do first?" Mia asked, lying in Zhao Yi's arms again.  "Well, I haven't thought about it yet. I want to help the ranch buy more livestock, poultry, turkeys, etc., and then build a factory. But I don't know what procedures are required to build a factory, and I also need to recruit people.  Employee, dear, do you have any good suggestions?" Zhao Yi has been thinking about the next development of the ranch these days.  He actually wanted to rely on Xiaolizi to make a lot of money, because now it is impossible for Xiaolizi to lose to any horse on the earth. But thinking about it, this plan does not seem to work. With Xiaolizi winning the championship, it  The reputation of the horse race will surely spread all over the world, and the odds will surely drop again and again. It will be unrealistic to rely on horse racing to make money.  Therefore, Zhao Yi returned his strategic goal to opening factories and slowly expanded outside through ranches, because he was confident that the meat products produced by his ranch would be loved by people around the world.  All that matters now is the basic factory and the reputation that can only be accumulated over time.  "Don't worry, let's finish the Tommy thing, and then we can discuss the future development." Zhao Yi said with excitement on his face: "My dear, from now on you will be the president of our factory, and then  I will hide behind you and experience the feeling of eating soft food! Haha!" Mia was speechless at her husband's thoughts and slapped his forehead with her finger: "Let's solve the trouble you caused first.  I heard that guy Jigre hired a great lawyer. How about you? " "Simon, I think he is good, and I only know him"  This time to help Tommy sue Jigre, Zhao Yi still found Simon, a lawyer who had been helping Zhao Yi since he immigrated.  Later, someone came to the back mountain to cause trouble, and then there was the issue of raising little Guoguo. In short, everything was handled well.  This time, Tommy, instigated by Zhao Yi, took Jigre to court, asking the latter to compensate him for US$50,000 in damages. The reason was that the other party forced employees to sign unfair labor agreements, and also oppressed them, a group of hard-working and kind-hearted people.  Working class.  Now the Labor Commission has accepted the case and will hear it in Billings, the nearest town to Robles, two days later.  It¡¯s early next morning.  Zhao Yi welcomed his guest Tommy, who came in and spoke first: "Yi, I'm a little nervous. Do I have to go to court tomorrow?" Zhao Yi smiled and said, "If you don't want to go, why don't you let me go? You have to know, you are  "Plaintiff." Tommy nodded, his face full of nervousness. Zhao Yi asked him to sit down and poured him a drink.  He sat back and asked, "What happened to what I told you?" "I contacted Reyes and he said he was willing to testify in court." Tommy replied.  "What about the other one? Is that the cashier?" Zhao Yi asked.  Tommy shook his head: "He can't do it. That guy is from Jigre and won't help us at all." Zhao Yi nodded after hearing this: "One person should be enough. I'll ask Simon now."  Zhao Yi took out his mobile phone and dialed Simon's number. Zhao Yi asked him about the probability of winning this case. Simon said that there was a 70% chance.  Zhao Yi felt that the success rate was very high, so he joked: That means he will definitely win!  Simon on the other side of the phone said: "You can't say that. Doing this will reduce your luck before the case is won." Zhao Yi thought: I thought that saving RP was only popular in TC, but I didn't expect that the same thing is true here in the United States.  You must keep a low profile before doing anything, otherwise you will suffer retribution "Dad, look at Da Fei's hand." Guo Guo ran down from upstairs at this time, held Da Fei in front of Zhao Yi, and he looked at it  Squirrel's hand was found to have a cut and was still bleeding.  "How did you do it?" Zhao Yi got up and went to find his homeGuo Guo glanced at Tommy timidly, then ignored the latter's smile and followed Zhao Yi closely.  Zhao Yi took out the gauze and wrapped Dafei's claws, then put it back in Guoguo's hand. Unexpectedly, this guy even bared his teeth at him.  ¡°Dad, Dafei wants to eat grapes.¡± Guoguo rubbed Dafei¡¯s belly and said.  "I know." Of course Zhao Yi understood the intention of the squirrel baring his teeth, which was a typical desire to eat grapes.  "Your claws are almost useless and you are still thinking about eating. Sooner or later, I will eat you to death." He turned around and went to the kitchen to take out a small bunch of grapes. Seeing this, Da Fei acted as if his claws were not injured at all. He jumped out of Guo Guo's hand and rubbed it.  Climb onto Zhao Yi's shoulders.  There is nothing that can be done to this guy, and probably nothing to be done to all the creatures in the house.  Xiaobai is getting lazy now. He only eats and sleeps on the carpet. Meow is the same. The most annoying thing is Dafei. He is full of energy all day long. Unfortunately, he only eats and only touches grapes.  Your sister is more difficult to take care of than my uncle.  "You're such a weirdo. You only eat grapes now? You don't even touch nuts?" Zhao Yi picked up Da Fei and asked, but the latter ignored him when he had grapes and jumped back to Guo Guo's shoulders.  , I didn¡¯t even look at Zhao Yi during this process.  Zhao Yi shook his head, turned to Tommy and said, "This is my daughter, Guoguo, come here and call Uncle Tommy." Little Guoguo called in a low voice, then told Zhao Yi to go upstairs to find her mother, and ran away.  "The little girl is very cute. I really envy you Yi. You have a child at such a young age, and I'm not even married yet." Tommy shrugged, with a bitter look on his face Zhao Yi comforted: "Wait until this case is finished.  , you come to work for me, I guarantee to give you a generous salary. "For a kind-hearted person, he really wants to help, and this is also very good for himself.  Because people like this will definitely not have any evil intentions, and it will make people feel at ease when using it.  "By the way, I won't necessarily let you work in the ranch. I may give you other types of positions." Zhao Yi suddenly remembered that he was about to open a factory, wasn't he?  Maybe he'll be able to find a job suitable for Tommy by then.  Tommy heard this and asked: "What type of job is it? Can you tell me a little bit first so that I can prepare." "Nothing. I just want to open a slaughterhouse and process the cattle and sheep on the ranch myself.  You may earn more this way," Zhao Yi said.  "That's it." Tommy thought for a while: "Then I can be an unloader! The slaughterhouse must require a profession such as unloading." Upon hearing this, Zhao Yi raised his thumb: "Brother, you  So dedicated.¡± ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª Waiting until the day of the trial, Zhao Yi got up early and cleaned himself up carefully.  First send Guoguo to kindergarten, and then drive to pick up Tommy with Mia.  Tommy¡¯s home is on the third street of Robs Town. He was already waiting there, and there were several people standing next to him, who seemed to be his family members.  Zhao Yi and Mia got out of the car and met Tommy's family one by one. Then they were squeezed by an aunt in her fifties' hands: Thank you, thank you for your help to Tommy.  That vampire Kigori!  Tommy worked for him for five years and went to work on time every day, but this damn guy After listening to Tommy's mother pouring out her bitter words, Zhao Yi gestured to Tommy: Brother, hurry up, we still need it  Rush to court.  Tommy quickly stopped his mother, and then several people quickly got in the car and drove out of the town.  In the car, Tommy said: "I'm sorry Yi, my mother may be a bit nagging, but she is very kind." "I know. She tends to be nagging as she gets older." Zhao Yi waved his hand: "You will be in court later.  Don't be nervous. Talk to Simon when the time comes. He will give you some help. " Tommy nodded, and then suddenly remembered something: "Oops, what about Reyes? " " Hey.  Yo! Why did you forget him?" Zhao Yi turned around quickly.  Mia looked at these two idiots and couldn't say a word for a long time.  ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª hurriedly picked up Reyes and drove towards Billings.  Although the court session is in the afternoon, there are still many things to do when we get there, such as meeting Simon and asking him what he should or should not say when he goes to court. This is very important.  ?Through the rearview mirror, I glanced at Reyes inside.  He was also present when we went to catch the homeless man yesterday, but the difference was that Tommy chose to help, while he watched indifferently.  If there is no benefit, this guy will definitely not appear in court.  Tommy had told Reyes beforehand that as long as he won the case, part of the money he received would be given to him. It was for this reason that he could convince the original?Reyes wants to appear in court.  When they arrived in Billings, it happened to be a little after 12 o'clock. Zhao Yi made an appointment with Simon to go out for dinner. At the dinner table, the latter asked Tommy and Reyes to give some things, which were nothing more than some court experience, such as not talking nonsense.  Because if you talk too much, the other party¡¯s lawyer will find loopholes. Lawyers are a profession that relies on exploiting loopholes.  After dinner, it was time for the court to start. Several people began to walk towards the court. After entering the court, they saw that there were not many people inside. Zhao Yi knew that his trivial matter would not cause any sensation. It was estimated that not many people would come today.  But half an hour later, Zhao Yi was slapped in the face. People walked in one after another, and they were all Robs townspeople!  It turned out that when these guys learned that Tommy was suing Kigori today, they all spontaneously rushed over to Tommy to cheer him on. It seemed that Kigori had a very bad reputation in Robs Town.  Among them were acquaintances of Zhao Yi and Mia, as well as friends who came specially to cheer Tommy on.  "Yi, you are really generous. You specially planned this scene." Zhao Yi turned to look at the source of the voice behind him and said with a smile: "Hey Yang, are you here to join in the fun? Is Parison here?" "That old ghost  I'm playing chess with Max. Damn it, I lost to him three times in a row! I'm going to win back later." Yang said and hugged Mia next to Zhao Yi: "Baby, how is life after marriage?  If this kid dares to bully you, just tell Uncle Yang!" Mia smiled and said, "Thank you, Uncle Yang, Yi is very good to me." Yang is sixty-three years old and has been very good friends with Max and Parison since he was born.  The three of them often play chess on the street.  "Yi, look. Jigre is here." Mia motioned to her husband to look behind him.  Sure enough, at the entrance of the court behind him, Jigre walked in with a few people and his lawyer. After seeing Zhao Yi, he came over and said coldly: "Mia, there is no hatred between your family and I, right?" Zhao Yi blocked his wife.  Behind him: "Mr. Jigre, I think you have misunderstood something? Our family is not your opponent in this court session." "Huh, your name is Yi, right? Stop pretending. Who in town doesn't?  I know it was you who gave Tommy the idea to sue me!" Jigre gritted his teeth and said angrily.  At this time, Tommy quickly ran over and stood next to Zhao Yi, saying to Jigre: "This has nothing to do with Yi, it's just that he is too harsh on us." After hearing this, Jigre was furious: "I'm harsh on you, you take them one by one.  He wanted to say more, but he was stopped by the lawyer beside him: "Save your energy, the court will be held later." Jigre seemed to trust this lawyer.  After nodding, he glared at Zhao Yi and others, and then walked to the defense side to sit down without saying a word.  Zhao Yi snorted coldly and said to Tommy: "Don't be afraid, just tell the truth. This guy won't be arrogant for long." Simon also nodded and praised: "Yes, according to the evidence I have, you are indeed suspected of being exploited.  "So tell the truth right away, we have a high chance of winning today." "By the way, Simon, do you recognize the lawyer opposite?" Zhao Yi saw the lawyer looking towards him, so he rushed to Simon.  asked.  Simon nodded: "That guy's name is Luo Ya, and he is somewhat famous. This guy once helped a rich man win an inheritance lawsuit in Los Angeles. It is said that the rich man was about to lose the lawsuit at that time, but it was Luo Ya who debated  After becoming a lawyer, he suddenly turned the situation around. His reputation started to grow from that time on. "So powerful?" Zhao Yi panicked after hearing this. "Are you sure?"  I feel that my professionalism is not inferior to his, so let¡¯s see the result.¡± The court was almost full of people. After a while, a judge slowly came over, motioned for everyone to sit down, and then announced.  : "Billings Magistrate Court, the trial of Jigre's unfair labor relations case is now open!" After speaking, he looked at the prosecutor Simon: "Please make a statement from the prosecution." Simon stood up: "Mr. Judge. We are charging Mr. Kilgari.  There are behaviors of exploiting employees' property and forcing employees to sign unfair contracts under special circumstances or time. This is the work contract my client signed with Jigre before, and there are many things in it that are not satisfactory.  My client had to sign this unfair contract due to family needs." After he finished submitting the contract to the judge, the judge motioned to Simon to continue.  "Item 2 of the contract states: Except for lunch time, employees are not allowed to leave their jobs at any time. If they are found to have left their jobs, they will be punished by deducting the monthly bonus and ten dollars per hour. I  I would like to ask the defense, is this really humane?Don¡¯t the perpetrators need to solve physical problems?  " After hearing this, the judge nodded and turned to Jigre's side: "Did the defense rebut it?  " Jigre looked at Loya in panic. The latter frowned and stood up and said: "I refute the prosecution's point. Your honor, we all should know that a normal adult needs to urinate 2-4 times a day and defecate once.  Or not.  In this case, there is no question of inhumanity, because the lunch time given by my client is one hour. Even if it takes us forty minutes to eat, that means there are still 20 minutes left. Could it be that 20 minutes can't solve physiological problems?  Problem?  " "I object!  "Simon stood up immediately, and after seeing the judge nodding, he said: "Defense lawyer, by saying this, don't you treat everyone as idiots?  First of all, you just said that a person normally needs to urinate 2-4 times a day. If this is the case, how can it be enough to go to the WC once at noon?  And the number of times a person urinates a day depends on the amount of water he drinks. If he happens to drink a lot of water that day, he will probably need to urinate all the time. In this case, I don¡¯t think he can hold it in for an entire afternoon.  Time, even if it can, it will cause great damage to the body's kidney organs!  "
