Becoming a lawyer starts with raising a Xiezhi

Chapter 66 What is Financial Freedom?
"Mr. Gu, this is my younger brother Meng Lang." Tang Furong introduced to the young man as soon as she entered the private room.

When the young man first saw Tang Furong, he was overjoyed, but when he saw Meng Lang again, his brows frowned.

Now that he heard Meng Lang's name, he couldn't help repeating and asked, "Is that your brother?"

"It's my own brother. He is studying at university in the provincial capital. He takes my mother's surname!" Tang Furong said with a smile.

The young man immediately looked at Meng Lang twice, and there was something in his mind that he didn't quite understand. If Meng Lang was Tang Furong's younger brother, why did Meng Lang take her mother's surname and she take her father's surname?Is her family patriarchal?

After hearing Tang Furong say that he was her own younger brother, and that she followed her mother's surname, Meng Lang almost burst out laughing in secret. She was too good at lying. This lie was enough for Xiao Hei to drink a pot.

Seeing Tang Furong bring his own younger brother to the banquet, the young man couldn't say anything, so he had to ask Meng Lang and Tang Furong to sit down.

Tang Furong smiled and said, "Mr. Gu, why are you asking me out?"

The young man smiled and said, "It's nothing. I mainly want to ask Lawyer Tang out to chat and make friends."

Tang Furong heard this and said with a smile: "Mr. Gu is really polite, I thought it was something important."

The young man's name was Gu Xiong, and he was the son of the boss of the Sangu Thatched Cottage Real Estate Development Company in the provincial capital. But Meng Lang didn't know who he was at the moment. He only thought that this boy was handsome. He must have countless women around him, and Tang Furong must be his new target.

If Yin Dang is a scumbag at the bottom, then Gu Xiong is a flower-picking maniac at the top. It's just that Tang Furong is a rose with thorns, and it's impossible to get it so easily.

Seeing that Tang Furong brought Meng Lang to the banquet, Gu Xiong had no choice but to put away his frivolous thoughts and intentionally please Meng Lang and said, "Brother Meng, come, I'll have a drink with you."

Gu Xiong drank imported foreign wine. Meng Lang saw that he wanted to drink with him. Didn't he find his opponent?Just as I was thinking about how to deal with him, the opportunity came.

Seeing him drinking with Gu Xiong non-stop, Tang Furong guessed his intentions and smiled secretly.

Gu Xiong often drank foreign wine, and he didn't have much capacity for alcohol. He also wanted to get Meng Lang drunk, and then took the opportunity to get close to Tang Furong. It's too much to drink.

"Lawyer Tang, your younger brother can drink a lot. After drinking a few bottles of wine, his face doesn't change and his heart beats, awesome!" Gu Xiong said to Tang Furong with his eyes squinted and his thumbs up.

Meng Lang stood up with a smile, and said, "Brother Gu, drink some more, it's a waste if you don't drink such a good wine, isn't it a lot of money for a bottle?"

"It's not worth the money! It's just a few bottles of foreign wine, you can drink as much as you want, nothing is wasted!" Gu Xiong said generously with his eyelids twitching, waving his hand.

Meng Lang smiled and said, "Brother Gu is so generous! Alas, it's rare to meet a close friend when drinking with a thousand cups. It's rare to meet a person like Brother Gu who meets a rival when drinking. Brother Gu, how about we drink some more?"

"Drink! Pour it up for me!" Gu Xiong's head was almost buried under the table, and he still wanted to drink.

Tang Furong hurriedly teased Meng Lang to wink at him, telling him not to drink any more. If something happened after drinking, the responsibility was not small.

Meng Lang quickly smiled and said, "Brother Gu, forget it, there is no permanent banquet in the world, if there is a chance, let's have a drink between us brothers, let's call it a day."

Seeing that Gu Xiong was drunk, Tang Furong frowned slightly, stood up and said, "Mr. Gu, thank you for your hospitality, my brother and I are leaving first, do you want someone to pick you up?"

"Tang...Lawyer Tang, don't rush away, I want to have another drink with Brother Meng." Gu Xiong raised his head vigorously and waved his hands.

"Don't drink, don't drink, let's drink later, the two of you hit it off right away, and there will be a time to meet again." Tang Furong waved her hands and said with a smile.

Meng Lang also waved his hand and said, "Brother Gu, fate, when will we fight for another [-] rounds."

After finishing speaking, Tang Furong called the waitress over to take care of Gu Xiong, while he and Meng Lang left in a hurry.

As soon as she got out of the hotel gate, Tang Furong covered her chest and said, "Xiao Meng, it's a good thing I called you, otherwise I wouldn't know anything if he poured me so much wine."

Meng Lang smiled and said, "Sister Tang, you all know that he has bad intentions, why did you come here?"

Tang Furong said: "As lawyers, we don't want to offend others, so don't offend others. If I don't come, he must have something against me. No one wants to lose their big client, right?"

Meng Lang said, "Sister Tang, if you say that, we lawyers will have to compromise?"

"Xiao Meng, lawyers only need to fight tit-for-tat in court, but in court they need to be well-rounded and learn to deal with all parties. Otherwise, who will introduce you to a big case? If there is no big case, you spend tens of thousands of dollars all day I am tired of small cases all year round, and I can’t make a lot of money. Being a lawyer does not depend on how many cases you take, but how many high-quality cases you take, and high-quality cases are generally big cases. , Accepting a big case is definitely not just relying on professional ability, but relying on personal connections, understand?"

After Tang Furong said these words, Meng Lang was thoughtful. After thinking about it, he felt that it really made sense. Although his current situation was better, in comparison, he was just a lawyer who had just entered the profession, let alone Qian Zhengyuan. , even compared with Tang Furong, it is still quite a bit worse.

"Sister Tang, how big a case is it considered a big case?" Meng Lang asked.

Tang Furong thought for a while and said, "For civil cases, if the amount of the bid is above 1000 million, it is regarded as the threshold for entering a major case. If it exceeds 5000 million, it is considered a serious and serious case. After hundreds of millions, it is considered a serious case. It's a big case of great value."

After hearing this, Meng Lang thought to himself that although he had taken on a few cases before, none of them had anything to do with big cases. He still had no idea what to do with big cases.

"Sister Tang, big cases can be encountered but not pursued?" Meng Lang thought for a while and asked.

Tang Furong nodded and said: "That's right, ordinary lawyers can't handle big cases at all, and if they don't reach that level, they won't come to you. Director Qian has been a lawyer for more than ten years, but he has just entered this threshold. He still takes small cases from time to time, and a real barrister doesn't even look at small cases."

Meng Lang heard the words and said, "Sister Tang, you will definitely become the kind of barrister who is good at taking big cases in the future."

Tang Furong laughed and said, "It's very difficult. As a female lawyer, it is many times more difficult to become a real barrister than a male lawyer. I just need to earn enough money for myself to achieve financial freedom. That's it."

"Sister Tang, haven't you achieved financial freedom yet?"

Tang Furong thought about it and said, "I don't think I'm worth it. If you want to achieve financial freedom, you need at least 1000 million in cash, 1000 million in real estate, and 1000 million in stocks. That's what I think!"

After finishing speaking, he smiled like a girl, and Meng Lang was also amused, and said with a smile: "Sister Tang, your standard of financial freedom is so high. I don't think even the business owners, let alone lawyers, may be able to meet it." oh!"
