Chapter 876 -281: Sending More Than 80 People Inside is Not the Purpose_3

Then, there was the conversation with Luo Yong.

Without any surprises, Luo Yong completely agreed to a settlement of compensating three times the amount retrieved.

In such a major case, besides the recovery of illicit funds, the most basic additional punishment for economic crimes, especially those disrupting market economic order, is confiscation of properties, seizing all personal assets.

Investigators had already discussed these matters with him, so he was well aware.

Since he couldn’t keep the assets anyway, what difference would it make if he compensated thrice the amount? Being shown any leniency in sentencing was already a considerable advantage.

After the conversation, Old Zhang didn’t say much more. What followed was the interview by the publicity department.

The interview naturally covered more details, so Luo Yong quickly learned about the situation from the interviewers.

“So, Tang Fangjing was actually willing to take over a failing gym for the sake of this case? Has he lost his mind, this…”

But as he continued, Luo Yong suddenly remembered that Lawyer Tang was famous for his unconventional thinking.

The things he did were essentially impossible for a typical human being.

Luo Yong felt extremely frustrated. He had so much he wanted to say, but just couldn’t articulate it at that moment.

“I should’ve known, how could Tang Fangjing just focus on mediation…” mumbled Luo Yong, and suddenly, he burst into anger.

“It’s all Xu Huijie’s fault. When I heard Tang Fangjing took over the case, I thought about withdrawing, but she said it was impossible, women’s long hair and short insights!”

The interviewer remained silent, observing quietly—the whole ‘long hair, short insight’ comment, but you were also blinded by greed, you’re both cut from the same cloth.

After Luo Yong came Tian Liben. Having learned of Lawyer Tang’s maneuvers, Tian Liben sat there like a petrified fowl, before finally uttering, “So that’s how it is…”

Tian Liben truly regretted his actions. Initially, during the mediation, he somewhat looked down on the other party, thinking that despite Tang Fangjing’s big reputation, he was still forced to negotiate with them.

Even if penalties and detentions were imposed later on, it didn’t seem to matter that much.

But he hadn’t expected that Tang had planned far ahead, and it was all a setup.

The other party was willing to risk everything for that case, and Tian Liben lost convincingly.

As for Xu Huijie, she was in the Jingzhou Fourth Detention Center, a women’s Detention Center.

Facing the interviewers, she remained silent throughout, never saying a word.

Perhaps she regretted her actions, or maybe she despised Tang Fangjing—who could tell?

After the interviewers returned, they sent the material to Lawyer Tang. He wasn’t sure how to comment after viewing it.

Tian Liben was talented, but had taken the wrong path, and the harm caused by a legal talent gone astray was much more significant than that of an ordinary person.

As for Luo Yong, Lawyer Tang refrained from passing judgment, but it was certain that he would spend a long time behind bars.

The crime of illegal business operations was one thing; it was punishable by more than five years for severe cases. And when the law sets minimum years without stating the maximum, it usually means more than five years of fixed-term imprisonment.

The maximum fixed-term imprisonment is fifteen years, so if Luo Yong was only charged with illegal business operations, the most he would face would be fifteen years.

But his charges also included fraud!

A professional shopclaimer, using common sense, one could tell that there was no way to separate him from fraud.

With cumulative sentencing, it was almost certain he wouldn’t escape a life sentence.

Lawyer Tang started to edit videos at the law firm, and a week quickly passed by.

Another beautiful day, Sun Yan and a group of others received their compensation with surprise and joy. Like Sun Yan, who got almost a hundred thousand after the tripling process!

She had thought that the over twenty thousand in her account would be impossible to recover.

Because the market regulators had told her that it would be tough to get the money back.

And the lawyer she consulted even told her that filing a lawsuit was risky and likely unenforceable.

This had caused quite a conflict at home, with her husband accusing her of squandering money, and her mother-in-law thinking of her as a spendthrift.

Just like her, others seeking rights also faced similar situations; money is the easiest cause of family disputes.

But this time, it really felt like picking up money for nothing, and everyone was excited!

The group chat was buzzing with lively conversations, showering each other with praise.

“Lawyer Tang is so awesome, I used to think he was helpless, but now I see, it was because I lacked perspective!”

“He handled such a big case just for our little sum of money, I’m speechless.”

Families harmonized again, and even became happier due to the extra money.

In the group chat, Sun Yan and the others discussed visiting Tengda to properly thank Lawyer Tang!

Meanwhile, Lawyer Tang finally stopped his work, his video was ready.

The title was: “Sending over eighty people to jail was not the goal, but merely a means of enforcement.”

The description included a line: “Actually, I really don’t like criminal law, I’m not interested in it.”

Looking at the video in front of him, Lawyer Tang was satisfied, he had unwittingly created another typical case, which might even be selected as a classic case illustrating the law by the Supreme Court.

Hey, it seems like I missed something, what was Old Zhou saying to me last time… I can’t remember, so let’s not think about it for now.

Let’s get Old Yang to review the video, and if there’s no issue, it can be released!
