Taking advantage of the gap between Dong Qiangqiang and Lei Lanting talking, Mueller lowered his voice and quickly asked the female judge in a low voice: "I don't understand, since my agreement with them is invalid, why do I have to discuss it with them when I divide the money again? Aren't they ignorant? Do you get the money?"
"It is legal and valid for you to hire the three defendants to find the inheritance, but after you find the inheritance, you have no right to make an independent decision to distribute the inheritance. From this perspective, the agreement is invalid."
"Does that mean it's OK if Sergey and I agree on the distribution method? We don't need the three of them to agree?"
"As I said just now, the new distribution method needs to be discussed by all three of you. In other words, it needs to be approved by all three parties. You have made the choice to share the inheritance equally with the defendant without discussing it with Sergey. , then the new distribution method should be similar to this method to reflect the principle of fairness. After all, you also relied on their help to find the money. Isn't it?" the female judge asked calmly.
"That's true, but it's okay if I give them some compensation, right?" Mueller asked relentlessly, hoping to get some explicit or implicit instructions from the judge.
The female judge shook her head in disappointment, turned around and walked into the small door behind her.
"Why did you just suggest that Mueller should be divided into three equal parts?" Lei Lanting said dissatisfied.
"Didn't you listen to what the judge said? The three parties need to discuss it together. How else can we divide it into three equal parts?" Tong Lele answered quickly.
"Not counting small sums, we found a total of 180,000 marks. If the three companies share it equally, then the three of us will get a total of only 60,000 marks. But if we shared it equally with Mueller before, the three of us could have received a total of 90,000 marks Mark’s.”
"Stop dreaming," Tong Lele rolled her eyes at him, "Will the two families be equally divided? I only want good things."
"Looking at it now, it would be ideal if the three parties could share the balance equally." Dong Qiangqiang said solemnly, "I'm just afraid that Mueller will do something wrong again."
"Hey," Lei Lanting looked at the two of them resentfully, "if we divide it into three parts, then the average of the three of us will only be 20,000 marks. This is much less than before."
"This is the moment, the other is the moment," Dong Qiangqiang knew that Lei Lanting sometimes likes to get into trouble, "or you can come up with a distribution method that both parties can agree to."
Lei Lanting is still racking his brains here, while Mueller has already relayed the judge's opinion to his lawyer. The lawyer suggested to him that if he wanted to get the money as soon as possible, it would be better to adopt the judge's advice, otherwise the matter might be delayed for several years.
The lawyer's thinking is pragmatic: Only if Mueller gets the money as soon as possible can he receive his share of the commission in addition to attorney fees.
Seeing that the lawyer said the same thing, Mueller sighed helplessly. He walked up to Dong Qiangqiang and the others depressedly: "Hey, have you finished the discussion?"
"Who are you talking to?" Upon hearing Mueller's voice, Lei Lanting immediately jumped up and stepped forward to grab Mueller's collar. "If you hadn't been so troublesome, everyone would have gotten the money long ago."
Dong Qiangqiang, with his sharp eyesight and quick hands, put his arm around his shoulders: "Old Lei, don't be impulsive."
Tong Lele was afraid that Lei Lanting would cause trouble again, so she also grabbed his collar from behind and said, "Speak carefully and don't do anything."
"What's there to say to him?" Lei Lanting scolded, "He's such a fool. He thinks he can keep it all to himself. Are you stupid now?"
Although Mueller couldn't understand what the three of them were saying, he seemed to know that Lei Lanting was angry.
He looked sad and spread his hands: "You can't blame me entirely for this."
Although Dong Qiangqiang was also angry, he was different from Lei Lanting in that he did not show his anger on his face. Besides, it's useless to be angry now. The key is to solve the problem and get the money back.
"The judge said that we should reach an agreement first and then talk to Sergey when he wakes up." Dong Qiangqiang stared at Mueller's old face with bright eyes. "We think the money we found should be divided equally into three parts."
When the train was about to pull into Hannover Railway Station, Lu Wei received another call from Dr. Fang Ke of the Academy of Painting.
Looking at the word "Fang Ke" displayed on the phone, Lu Wei wanted to answer but didn't dare to answer. After struggling for more than ten seconds, he reluctantly pressed the answer button.
"Good morning! Ms. Lu, this is Dr. Fang Ke." The person on the other end of the phone said quickly, "That's right, I want to ask if you have time to come to the art academy next week? We are in need of still life models recently."
Still a familiar voice, still a familiar opening line.
It was still difficult for Lu Wei to accept it.
Lu Wei didn't expect that after rejecting the other party yesterday, he would receive another invitation call today. It seems that the other party is really short of people. But she already rejected him once yesterday. If she rejects him again today, will she lose her job? Lu Wei was in a state of confusion. The word "sorry" was on his lips, but he couldn't say it out anyway. Although the job introduced by Yu Jianghai is profitable (to be confirmed), it is also risky and the key is not stable. If you go to extend the visa, you probably won’t be able to tell the truth.
After not hearing Lu Wei's response for a long time, Fang Ke thought there was something wrong with the phone: "Ms. Lu, are you there?"
"Oh, I'm here..." Lu Wei replied in a panic, but didn't know how to answer the other party's question.
"So are you free next week?"
"Oh, I have classes next week." Lu Wei answered the question inappropriately.
"We can arrange for you to work when you're not in class, is that okay?"
A passenger passed by Lu Wei. Lu Wei quickly covered his phone with his hand and whispered, "I need to check next week's class schedule before I can reply to you."
"No problem. Then I'll wait for your call. Remember to tell me before six o'clock tonight."
"Okay..." After putting down the phone, Lu Wei immediately became irritable, as if a ball of rice cake was stuck in her throat, blocking it tightly, leaving only a place for one breath to pass through, but it made people feel uncomfortable. Becoming more depressed.
The station announcement sounded from above the carriage, and Lu Wei walked out of the carriage. Walking out of the station along with the scattered passengers on the platform.
The moment she walked down the platform steps and entered the underground passage, she seemed to see something out of the corner of her eye. She turned her head to look inadvertently, but was surprised to see the girl named Fang from the morning walking down the steps of another exit and entering the underground passage.
Although she had taken off her white coat, Lu Wei could still recognize her from her profile.
This surprise was no small matter. Lu Wei never expected that he would get off the train in Hannover with her.
Could it be that she is also from Hanover? Lu Wei's mind suddenly surged with countless questions, but before she could figure it out, the girl disappeared in the crowd.
Lu Wei ran two steps to catch up, and when he arrived at the place where the girl disappeared, he turned around and looked around. But there were only hurried passers-by and various homeless people around, but the girl could not be seen.
She searched for a few more minutes but still found nothing, so she could only make random guesses while walking towards the station melancholy.
