84: Give you some strength
Zhou Yun was someone who enjoyed reasoning, but he never claimed to be a good person, nor did he want to be one.
Because good people are easily held at gunpoint.
So now he simply liked to reason, and if the other party didn't listen, he would reason even more deeply, until the other party listened.
What was the law? The law was just his tool.
After bidding farewell to Kang Weilun, Zhou Yun quickly arrived at the Xinguang District Labor and Personnel Dispute Arbitration Court again.
The difference was that this time he came with a very large and heavy bag… After all, there were evidence materials for more than twenty people.
Moreover, every application and every piece of evidence had to have an original and a photocopy, and the photocopies had to be in duplicate.
Upon arriving, he still had to queue. After waiting for a while, it was his turn at the window. He looked up and saw it was the same receptionist as last time.
That's good, it's easier to get things done with someone you know.
The staff member saw Lawyer Zhou Yun and immediately smiled, “Lawyer Zhou is here again! Oh, your last arbitration case really made a name for itself in our Court.”
“What type of case is it today?”
Zhou Yun placed the bag on the ground, casually pulled out Niu Shanghui's materials from it, and handed them over: “It’s the same type as last time.”
“Oh, the same type, that’s simple then.” The staff member took them with a smile.
Just as he was looking at the materials, he heard Lawyer Zhou on the other side say, “That puts my mind at ease.”
What was he relieved about? Cases of the same type are simple. Was there something wrong with what I just said?
While thinking, the staff member saw Lawyer Zhou lower his head, pick up a huge bag, and place it on the counter.
The bag made a thudding sound as it hit the counter, which stunned the staff member.
“Lawyer Zhou, this is…”
Zhou Yun said cheerfully, “These, these are all cases of the same type. Let me see, there are only twenty-seven, right? Not many, really not many.”
“You just said it yourself, cases of the same type are simple, so these mere twenty-seven cases are just minor matters.”
As he spoke, the pile of materials was taken out and stacked thickly on the counter.
The staff member’s mouth opened wider and wider.
After placing the last piece of evidence, Zhou Yun immediately said, “That’s all there is, not too much, right? To be honest, you guys should probably increase your intensity a bit. There will be more and more labor disputes in the future.”
“You need to adapt in advance… Any questions?”
The staff member forced a smile and said, “No problem, absolutely no problem.”
“That’s good then. You can directly consolidate the cases for trial,” Zhou Yun said casually.
The staff member sighed. It was possible to consolidate the cases for trial, but for filing, all these materials had to be reviewed. Just thinking about it was troublesome.
What could he do? Call for help.
Soon, the staff member called others over to help. After roughly going through all the case materials, he said, “Lawyer Zhou, your materials are all fine. We’ll accept them for now.”
“However, in this situation, our leader will likely suggest mediation…”
Zhou Yun heard this and said, “Mediation, huh? No problem, I love mediation the most. All cases have special authorization, and I can be there anytime.”
It had to be mediation. Only through mediation could he obtain the letter of understanding.
And he had already told everyone the situation before.
Regarding this, everyone's response was, “Lawyer Zhou, do whatever you want, even if we don't get any money.”
Everyone had already given up, so it was already very good that someone was willing to help protect their rights for free.
It didn't matter if they didn't get money, as long as they could make that boss uncomfortable!
To be honest, those workers really wished Wu Junxian would die!
But there was no way. In reality, few people would resort to violence over a few thousand yuan. Everyone had their own families and lives to live.
So, being able to cause Wu Junxian some trouble was very satisfying for everyone.
The staff member nodded, then looked at the people still in line behind him. Well, he would have to work overtime again today.
Although they no longer issued numbers, at least those in line had to be processed.
Zhou Yun left the Arbitration Court, carrying his empty bag. Next, he would wait for that Mr. Wu.
This time, he had made up his mind: he would turn the labor dispatch market in Jinghai upside down!
Either don't do it, or do it thoroughly. It must be deep, or it won't feel good.
Probably only someone like him, a cheat, could do this kind of thing. With transmigration and a system, if he didn't stir up trouble, would he still be called a transmigrator!
Time slowly passed. Inside the company office, Wu Junxian was on the phone.
“Lawyer Tang, I don’t care what, even if we lose, we have to drag it out. There’s absolutely no way I’ll just pay compensation. We must go through both trials!”
“Okay, money is not an issue. You do a good job with the case!”
After hanging up, Wu Junxian prepared to play on his phone for a bit. Money was truly not an issue for him.
His company, though small, was incredibly profitable.
He had three similar companies in Jinghai, all doing this type of work.
He would rather spend one hundred thousand to fight a lawsuit than give the other party ten thousand. It was that simple.
Or rather, most bosses had similar thoughts.
Just then, his phone rang. He picked it up and answered, “Hello, who is this?”
“Hello, is this Mr. Wu of Ousheng Human Resources? This is the Xinguang District Labor Arbitration Committee. We spoke on the phone before.”
Wu Junxian thought for a moment and said, “Oh right, hello, hello. Is there something going on?”
“It’s like this, Mr. Wu. Your company is now involved in some more labor arbitrations. Because the situation is rather… troublesome, we are notifying you to see if we can mediate.”
What? Wu Junxian was stunned: “Involved in more labor arbitrations? What’s going on? Wasn’t the last one already ruled on? It said if I wasn’t satisfied, I could go to the Court…”
“No, Mr. Wu, these are new arbitrations. There are twenty-seven in total, meaning twenty-seven people have filed for arbitration, all for the same reason: they want the stable employment subsidy.”
“So our suggestion is still to try mediation. The lawyer is Lawyer Zhou Yun…”
Twenty-seven people… Zhou Yun…
Wu Junxian was dumbfounded: “This, what exactly is going on? How did they all suddenly file for arbitration? They… Alright, alright. When? The day after tomorrow morning? Okay, I’ll be there then.”
Wu Junxian was truly exasperated. It was the first time in all his years of running a company that he had encountered such a situation.
He had seen too many incidents like disturbances and reports, and he had seen arbitrations too.
But someone like Zhou Yun, who pursued legal avenues to the very end, he had truly never seen!
How could it be such a coincidence that so many people were willing to arbitrate!
He should go and see what was really going on.
