When he said this, Dong Qiangqiang immediately remembered his proposal last night and said calmly: "I remember. What's wrong?"
"Well... I have something to discuss with you." Lei Lanting's tone was unnatural.
Dong Qiangqiang guessed that Lei Lanting spoke like this because what he was about to say was very much related to money, so he said directly: "You will definitely not lose a penny of the money I promised you. But I was in the nursing home with Lele this morning. As a volunteer, I don’t have time to go to the bank to transfer money to you. I can only transfer (the money) after get off work.”
Dong Qiangqiang originally planned to go to the city center to have a meal with Lei Lanting and Tong Lele after work in the morning, and then withdraw the money to him. Unexpectedly, Lei Lanting didn't come to the nursing home at all in the morning, and the incident with Tong Lele happened again, so the time was delayed. He didn't expect Lei Lanting to be so anxious, which surprised him, and he unconsciously felt emotions inside and outside his words.
Upon hearing this, Lei Lanting quickly explained: "No, you misunderstood. Don't worry about the money. You can transfer it together later."
"Transfer it together?" Dong Qiangqiang was stunned by what he said, "Transfer it together with what money?"
"Well, I signed a contract with Luke this morning in the name of your company. I need you... to help me stamp the contract. I also need your signature."
Dong Qiangqiang said in surprise: "Why didn't you come over in the morning because you had to sign a contract with Luke?"
"Well, that's not entirely true," Lei Lanting hesitated for a moment and whispered, "I first went to his forest to catch a wild boar, and then I signed a contract with him."
Dong Qiangqiang was speechless for a long time, and after a few seconds he asked in disbelief: "Did you catch a wild boar yourself?"
"Well, little one." Lei Lanting's tone was full of pride, "I didn't expect to catch a wild boar so smoothly. Speaking of which, the bait you thought about worked really well. It turned over in one go, and I didn't even think about it. Wait ten minutes. Much easier than our last two times."
Dong Qiangqiang was really surprised and shocked by this news. He didn't expect Lei Lanting to move so quickly.
Hearing Dong Qiangqiang's silence, Lei Lanting said with a guilty conscience: "I know I should discuss this matter with you first, but Luke, a German, is different from Fleischer. Fleischer never rushes you, but this Luke He urged me several times. As you know, we have just opened, and I was afraid that this order would be gone, and both of us would be busy in vain. So I quickly placed the order first, and it will be familiar to him next time. Just keep looking for me...oh, no, look for us."
Lei Lanting naturally blamed Luke for this matter, emphasizing that he had no choice but to do so.
Tong Lele saw that Dong Qiangqiang's face was uncertain. He didn't know what happened, so he asked softly: "Barbara and the others have changed their minds?"
"No, it's about the school." Dong Qiangqiang didn't want Tong Lele to worry, so he pointed to the window in the distance with a fake smile and said, "The signal here is not good. I'll go over there to listen. You rest here and wait for them. Let me know if anything happens. "
As soon as he walked to the window, Dong Qiangqiang heard Lei Lanting's anxious "Hey, hello". He thought Dong Qiangqiang had hung up the phone.
Dong Qiangqiang knew very well that Lei Lanting wanted to go it alone. If he just found an excuse to reject Lei Lanting, then Lei Lanting would not be able to do anything wrong at all. But on the one hand, I just agreed to the other party yesterday. Although Lei Lanting acted first and acted too hastily, one of Dong Qiangqiang's principles is to keep his word and stick to his word.
On the other hand, the reason why the three of them were lucky enough to get part of Mueller's inheritance was because Lei Lanting went to Mueller's villa to clean the house first, so that everyone had the opportunity to hunt for treasures and share the money.
Dong Qiangqiang didn't want to be an ungrateful person, which was one of the reasons why he promised Lei Lanting to let him fly solo yesterday.
Without any hesitation, he said calmly: "Okay. When do you want to stamp and sign?"
"The sooner the better," Lei Lanting said impatiently. "The foster care fee at Luke's place is higher than that at Fleisher's place. One more day of foster care means a lot less money."
"I can stamp and sign for you in the afternoon, but if it is settled together with the last fee, I need to go to the agency in the afternoon and ask about the accounting. Once I figure out how to keep the accounting, the money can be sent to you. Today is Thursday. I can definitely give you the money before five o'clock tomorrow afternoon. If not, I can lend you the money. Is that okay?"
Hearing that Dong Qiangqiang agreed to sign and seal it in the afternoon, a big stone hanging in Lei Lanting's heart suddenly fell to the ground. He was afraid that Dong Qiangqiang would take advantage of him in this matter. For Lei Lanting, everything else was easy to handle, but it was too difficult to find a ready-made German company that could issue invoices.
"Chengcheng, no problem. Then wait and see. Should I go find you? Or are you coming to me?" Lei Lanting thought that since he had already said everything, he no longer needed to hide it. He simply asked once and for all. The sooner you get the money, the sooner you will feel secure.
Dong Qiangqiang thought that he would send Tong Lele home first, then go home to get the official seal, and then go to the agency that originally applied for the company license to inquire about accounting matters. He would simply make an appointment to meet at a middle location to save time.
"Then let's meet under the statue outside the train station. The time is...well, just one hour later."
"Okay, I'll wait for you." Lei Lanting said happily.
Almost half an hour after the phone call, Chopra called Dong Qiangqiang and Tong Lele back to the dean's office.
The agreement was placed quietly on the table, and Dong Qiangqiang and Tong Lele read it carefully. Especially for Tong Lele, her dizziness may have affected her reading ability. Some terms even need to be discussed with Dong Qiangqiang before she can understand them, which makes Dong Qiangqiang worried again.
In the end, Tong Lele, Dong Qiangqiang and Barbara signed the agreement respectively, and each party kept one copy, while lawyer Frederick kept the third original copy as a backup.
Since the lawyer did not participate in the mediation process, Frederick only collected some basic service fees from both parties.
Before leaving, Frederick held Dong Qiangqiang's hand: "You are the first foreigner to successfully mediate with the other party independently in the dispute mediation I have participated in. I may write you into my cases in the future, okay?" ?"
"No problem, of course." Dong Qiangqiang responded happily, and then said half-jokingly, "Then can I collect some copyright fees from you? Mr. Frederick."
"If your name and the specific circumstances of the case are involved, I will definitely pay you the relevant fees. You don't have to worry about this." After saying that, Frederick handed Dong Qiangqiang a business card, "If you want to contact me again in the future, If people have a lawsuit or need mediation, they can come to me.”
Dong Qiangqiang thought to himself that this lawyer was really good at business, and he would not even let him go as a foreign student. He nodded immediately and carefully put the business card away.
Before leaving the nursing home, Dong Qiangqiang suddenly remembered something, turned around and asked Barbara: "Dean, we have completed the work today, but Tong Lele may not be able to come right away tomorrow. As for whether she can come next week, it depends on her condition by then. "
"No problem," Barbara answered readily. "The notice does not require you to volunteer for a week in a row. We also hope that Ms. Tong will rest for a while before talking about volunteering. This is good for both of us. "
"I have another idea," Dong Qiangqiang asked boldly, "Can I take her place and complete the four-hour work every day? Anyway, as long as someone completes the work, it will be fine, right?"
Barbara smiled and shook her head and refused: "I'm afraid this won't work."
"Why?"
"Although the notice does not require you to volunteer for a week continuously, it does stipulate that it is strictly prohibited to let others complete your volunteer time on your behalf. And it also says that as long as you complete the volunteer work for this week within half a year. We I believe that Ms. Tong can complete this job by herself. We have confidence in her."
When Dong Qiangqiang wanted to fight for it again, Tong Lele gently pulled his arm down.
He knew that this was Tong Lele's reminder to him, so he said nothing more and left the nursing home with Tong Lele.
