159: This is a slap in the face of the Provincial Bar Association, and I, Zhou Yun, absolutely cannot tolerate it!

The next day arrived, and Zhou Yun performed exceptionally well during the event.

His legal education was both humorous and full of substance, and in his interactions with other units in Yinshan District, he was extremely proper, completely devoid of the craziness he displayed when talking to Director Wang on the phone.

Yes, it was craziness; Director Wang, at least, felt that this Lawyer Zhou's mind was definitely not normal.

It's not that a normal person couldn't do such a thing; similar lawsuits arise every year over the collection of construction fees, but local lawyers won't take them; most will invite lawyers from the Imperial Capital or the Magic City.

Those lawyers are also very bold.

The key is that no one does it like him; you go to apply for information disclosure, and they ask you what you want to do with the information once it's disclosed, and you directly say, "Once it's disclosed, I'm going to use this to sue you?"

What's the difference between that and snapping a rubber band at their window!

Yet now everyone knows that this guy went and got a certificate stating he has no mental illness, which makes things very difficult.

You can't even curse him and say he's crazy.

But no matter what, what needs to be done still needs to be done; after reflecting to the Provincial Lawyers Association, the reply received was that Lawyer Zhou likes to speak the truth, so they should be a bit more tolerant.

It is said that this reply was suggested by a certain person with the surname Zhuang, whose name is inconvenient to disclose.

Zhou Yun was having a great time, while on the other side, Luo Hongxuan received a phone call asking him to go to the Education Department to discuss how to resolve the matter.

Naturally, Luo Hongxuan had no objections to this; Zhou Lawyer also suggested talking with the other party, as the goal was simply to get the money.

Soon, Luo Hongxuan arrived at the Education Department dressed as a delivery person, and when he tried to enter, he was stopped and told that delivery people were not allowed inside.

"Are you sure you won't let me in? I told you I'm not here to deliver food, but to discuss something. Alright, alright, I'll make a call."

This was probably the most satisfying moment for Luo Hongxuan in the past two years; for so long, working as a delivery person, he often encountered situations where he wasn't allowed in at the entrance, but the customers inside insisted on having the delivery brought to their door.

Under normal circumstances, as a dedicated delivery person, he couldn't say anything; he could only communicate politely and then envy the crowd-sourced delivery guys.

For crowd-sourced delivery, it was simple: if they weren't allowed in but insisted on entering, and then said they'd complain if it wasn't delivered to the door, well, then it was time for an extra meal today...

Soon, Luo Hongxuan dialed the previous number: "Hello, I'm downstairs at your building. Yes, you guys aren't letting me in, so we can't talk. I'm leaving now."

"Just let Zhou Lawyer talk to you guys later."

The moment those words left his mouth, Luo Hongxuan felt truly satisfied. I've already hired a lawyer now, so you can discuss anything with my lawyer.

On the other end of the phone, Jiao Xiaoyan in the office upstairs had no smile on her face.

Originally, this wasn't her business, but who made her aware of it? As a result, the leader said, "You go and talk."

She was still thinking that Zhou Yun was difficult to talk to, and it would be better to talk to the party involved. But then the party involved directly used Zhou Yun to threaten people!

Helpless, Jiao Xiaoyan could only say, "Mr. Luo, please don't rush. You can come in, I'll come down to meet you."

Soon, Jiao Xiaoyan went downstairs, clarified with the security guard, and then led Luo Hongxuan upstairs.

After going upstairs and pouring a cup of tea, Jiao Xiaoyan finally spoke: "Mr. Luo, I'm sure you understand why we called you here this time. We thought that for some matters, you actually don't need to hire a lawyer."

"Hiring a lawyer will only complicate simple matters, you know."

This wasn't nonsense; such situations have indeed occurred in reality, and quite frequently.

Some units, upon seeing that the other party had hired a lawyer, would directly say that lawyers are just in the way and cannot solve problems at all.

For example, certain individuals in some judicial organs would smile when they saw a legal aid lawyer, but frown when they saw a privately hired lawyer, even saying, "Why spend money to hire a lawyer? Legal aid lawyers are pretty good, aren't they?"

Legal aid lawyers are certainly good; they obey whatever they're told, which is so convenient.

So Luo Hongxuan immediately said, "You want to mediate, right? You can mediate if you give me the money. My demands are very simple."

"As for not hiring a lawyer, I didn't hire a lawyer for so many years before, did you ever call me? Did you ever talk to me about mediation?"

"You didn't. On the contrary, I hired a lawyer just two days ago, and you came to find me. Do you think it's necessary to hire a lawyer?"

Luo Hongxuan was not a fool; now the other party was paying all sorts of attention, but without Zhou Yun, he wouldn't even be able to enter this door!

Jiao Xiaoyan was very helpless, but she could only change the subject and say, "Let's not talk about that for now. I'll be honest with you: currently, there's no money to give you."

"So, how about this: we acknowledge this debt of yours, and you don't have to bother with information disclosure or litigation. Everyone saves trouble. After this, we'll slowly pay you the money."

This was also the only solution they could think of at the moment: acknowledging the debt, but when exactly the money would be paid was unknown.

Seeing that Luo Hongxuan seemed a bit moved, Jiao Xiaoyan quickly added:

"Because we can actually refuse your information disclosure. The contractor on the contract is Kangde Company, you know. You are not the contractor, so we cannot disclose it to you. This involves commercial secrets..."

Jiao Xiaoyan kept talking, and the core message was one thing: your request for disclosure cannot be processed.

Instead of bothering for a long time with no result, it's better if we just acknowledge it directly, and then you don't sue, and we'll slowly pay you.

Finally, when Jiao Xiaoyan had almost finished speaking, Luo Hongxuan said, "So your point is that I can't get this done, right? Then I'm very curious, why don't you go and tell Zhou Lawyer about this?"

Jiao Xiaoyan was stunned, or rather, she hadn't expected the other party to say that.

And Luo Hongxuan continued, "I'm very curious, why?"

"See, you can't even give a reason. Well, never mind then. I'll go back and tell Zhou Lawyer. If he tells me to agree, I'll agree. If he doesn't, I won't."

With that, Luo Hongxuan directly got up and left. That's right, he came today just to confront them!

In the past, he would have agreed to such conditions a hundred percent; at least there would be some hope.

But now, with Zhou Lawyer around, why should he agree? He had waited for over ten years, so waiting a little longer didn't matter.

After leaving the door, Luo Hongxuan made a phone call and told Zhou Yun about the situation.

"They definitely won't disclose it that easily. Don't worry, I've prepared all the materials for the administrative lawsuit."

It was inevitable that the other party would drag things out, so he absolutely couldn't waste a second. He had to file an administrative lawsuit immediately after receiving the refusal to disclose letter.

He couldn't be blamed for this. Although it was agreed before not to file an administrative lawsuit, now, these people weren't giving face to the Provincial Lawyers Association!

They said he represented the Provincial Lawyers Association, but they wouldn't even disclose information. This was a slap in the face to the Provincial Lawyers Association!

As a member of the Lawyers Association, Zhou Yun felt it was necessary to help President Lan reclaim this dignity, and the bigger the matter got, the better!

Time slowly passed, and the legal education team was about to go to the next place. Chairman Yan Ruiyang found Zhou Yun.

"So, Director Zhou, you're not planning to come with us?"

Zhou Yun smiled and said, "You go ahead. I'm just getting started here. They're not giving face, so it looks like an administrative lawsuit is in order. Don't worry, I won't lose!"

Lawyers cannot promise wins or losses to clients, but telling a Lawyers Association leader is certainly not a violation.

Chairman Yan Ruiyang was very helpless. Is this about whether you will lose or not!

However, it was fine without Zhou Yun; otherwise, if they went to other places, people might not even want to receive them.

The team left, and Zhou Yun continued to stay in Yinshan District, finally receiving the reply: involving commercial secrets, non-disclosure!

Ten minutes after receiving the reply letter, Zhou Yun had already arrived at the Yinshan District Administrative Reconsideration Bureau.
